The voices were too far off for any of the prisoners to hear what was Baid But they knew some dreadful scenes of violence were being enacted, some such seenil*, perhaps. as that which had ended in Hallett's murder. Mrs. Radway spoke in a level.' hard voice. She addressed her remarks to Crosby Todd. "I suppose you realize by this time, what chance we Hand if Doctor Waite has been killed?’j The thought that tie had gone bravely to a doom which.(could not tie averted, and had gone from a group of people who plainly did not trust him. was horrible to her.

offered immediate respite, even though it might be a brief one. Mrs. Radway opened the door; he darted inside and barred it. She looked.a; him in horror. He had forgotten that his face was bruised and bleeding. A moment later there was a confused sound of shouting and a fusillade of bullets struck the steel bulkhead. "You see how perfectly they trust me." he commented. He turned his head to see Crpsby Todd hurrving toward him. "They were after the doctor,” Mrs. Railway said. “1 should feel happier If I thought that 1 was the only one needed.” Bettington said soberly. He lowered his voice as he saw Mary and her brother. “They are outside ravening like wolves.” “Can they get in?” Evelyn Radway asked. “I doubt it,’’ he said, with an air of cheerfulness. "Not t< night, anyway." To the four he was confronting the weather seemed suddenly to have be-

CHAPTER X Slivers to the Rescue Os ail those who made up the crew of the ' Albatross, none had been s<thrilled with the day's haptwidnus as . , ||,. possessed a boy's appe the for adventure. His earliest an) billons were di reeled toward a career •>f piracy, arid in this, his flfth voyagte. they seemed about to be realized. Slivers, had seen men die. lie had crept on deck arid i<«>ked. fascinated, at Sam. whose red face was while at last, and whose stubborn neck was bent tit a horrifying angle. But Sllv efs-hiid his donhis as to the final out ttie struggle Os all tries* men of blood and violence, he es teemed the prowess *4 the tall doctor most highly. Anyone who could have killed Sain with bis bare hands •He,” said Slivers, thinking it over "he's the mix for my money!” If the amazing diwtor should sally forth and overwhelm the rest, where exactly would Augustus Condon stand? That was Slivers' problem. Pirates he bad read, invariably met their dooin swinging from a yard-arm over yawn ing black waters. Stivers stole quietly from the door of Metzaer's room and came stealthily to the one which had been so recently assaulted. Just the other side Rettington was trying tb snatch some sleep: continuous tapping awoke him Listening intently, he could hear his name spoken in a shrill treble. He threw the. door open, pistol In hand, and saw Slivers. * Alt't got nothin’ to eat. have yer?” Slivera demanded. , “No,”! Bettington whispered. “TH get some.* said tlx* boy jannt Uy. “Cook's In with ihe chief, talkin'

about the skirts. Crazy about ’em. The rest is soused. They’ll never get me.” He brought a ham already cooked, an Eden cheese and quantities of canned fruit and milk. “SHvers,” said Bettington when he saw the loot, "what’s the idea of helping us like this? What do you expect to get for it?" The yard-arm, with its dangling victim, recurred. He was inspired with sudden cunning. “If they knew, they’d kill me.” he whispered. He cast about for a word, "I’m a neutral,” said Slivers. “You’re the best little neutral I ever knew.” Bettington said heartily, as he looked at the provender. "Where are you going now?” He had some idea of adding the boy to his company. “Back to hear wljat they’re saying.” He shook his head wisely. “I'll come around agen tomorrer night.” Crosby Todd was the first to rise. He looked with astonishment at the provisions. In his first flush of gratitude he forgot that Bettington must have opened the door and been in communication with the enemy; this was soon to seem a very suspicious action. At the same time, in the after part of the ship Metzger and Pereira faced one another. They had fallen asleep after hours of splendid planning. They had decided with enthusiasm to slay the doctor, the wireless operator and Bob Unwin as soon as morning came. The morning came too soon: they had been scarcely two hours asleep when Kenzie awoke them. Already they were paying the penalty of the reckless mixing of drinks. Kenzie brought an enormous pot of coffee ; he wanted to talk business. “What's going to be done?" tie asked. Pereira waved an anti impatiently. He did not realize that the Albatross was rolling gently in the trough of the summer sea. He was anxious for those delights which had been assured lu l.imon. “We waste time.” he declared with dignity: "go as fast as you can.” Metzger .sobered, saw things in a less happy light. In his mad anger toward Bettington he had forgotten that unless a competent navigator were discovered the Albatross must drifnwfittl another boat had seen her and reported her condiHon or proffered the help that wouhl not be accepted. .Mike could steer a course if it were set. but who was to set it? Kenzie'delivered an ultimatum. “I want to know if I’m to let my fires out or keep up steam.” ■ “(lo below." Metzger commanded. "I will let you know what is to be done.” Metzger convicted himself of gross stupidity. Why had he not applauded the surgeon for th<> death of Sam and so gained his whole confidence? It'-te.d of this, his insahe jealousy had cropped out. B had driven the doctor to the side of the woman he longed for. It had left the yacht without the one -man who could find where shoals were and watch the charts for hidden dangers. When Slivers appeared vith the omelette Metzger had decided on his course. The boy would do as a tnessssiiger to Bettington and the rest. They Would hardly shoot him: if they did; little harm .would be done. —- lie took a piece of the ship’s monogrammed paper and scribbled a note. Pereira approved it and Slivers was used as the .messenger. When the cook's helper, rapped at t.he door and. since w_as on a legitimate errand, dared to shout, it was Crosby Todd ' who cautiously jieered through. Bettingfon was rigging up an electric stove in what had been Radway's room. "A letter for the Doc.” said Olivers.Todd drew him in. and shut the door. . “Where is it?" Todd demanded. “It’s for the Doc." - * “rif*£ive it t<» him " Todd snatched it from him felt there must be "something here which would give Color to his suspicions. "It's ail right." he said to Slivers. Todd did not read it until he was out cb sight. His eyes grew bright. Here vvas the evidence he needed to convince Mrs. Radway.- NoW she must, abandon this stubbornly held faith. Allowing a few minutes to elapse he wnt back to the waiting boy. “Doctor Waite will .write an answer in half-an-hour. He says he must consider the tuoposition. Now run away, for thirty minutes, son.” Slivers' message was received in the silence of deep gloom. “What's be mean by that?" Metzger demanded when the buy had gone. "She will not let him leave her,” I’eriera said. "What else should it be?” ?

Lesson for August 3 NAOMI AND RUTH: A STUDY IN RACIAL RELATIONSHIPS LESSEN TEXT—The Book of Ruth. GOLJ2EN TpXT —And hath made of one blood all nations of tnen so? to dwell on all the face of the earth. • PRIMARY TOPIC—Ruth a Helpful Daughter. JUNIOR TOPlC—Naomi's Faithfulness Leads Ruth to God. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Our Neighbors of Other Races. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Way to World Brotherhood. I. How Naomi and Ruth Were Brought Together (1:1-15). On account of famine Ln Bethlehem of Judah, Naomi with her husband and two sons sojourned in the land of Moab. After the death of her, husband. her two sons married Moabitish women. After a time her sons died also. After the death of her sons, Naomi resolved to return to Her homeland, having heard that the Lord had visited his people in giving them bread. They went to Moab to escape trouble but only got into more. This is always the case when God's people go into the world to esca|>e difficulties. It was not until Naomi was thus chastised that she resolved to return. When the time, came for her to go. Ruth arid Orpah accompanied her for a distance. 11. Ruth’s Noble Choice (1:16 181. Greatly as Naomi loved her daugh-ters-in-law, she would not have them go into this matter blindly. She wished them to know the seriousness of their action.. She revealed unto them the •worst that could come upon them. This is the right principle to he carried out in all our relations in life. Jesus Christ is our supremo example. He held before the people the cost of discipleship. 1. No chance for them to. marry again (v. 11). Naomi told them that she had no more soils for- whom they could wait. In that (lay for a woman to be. unmarried was Hie greatest disgrace. Society differed then from now N< avenues were open by which xvonier could earn their living and be Independent. • Heathen gods must be renounced (v. 15). luolatrous worship could not be car tied on in the land where God’s people dwelt. This was delicately touched upon when Orpah went back. She went back when it was plain that there was no chance, for her to get a husband After orpah's return Naomi put an additional test upon Ruth, that of giving up. her religion. Ruth was equal to the occasion. Her mind was fully made tip. She was willing to accept as her God The One who was able to produce, in his subjects the nobility cf character she had observed in Nao'mi. Ruth's determination was so definite an d - tin fa 11 er ing that her ex pres s i (>.tj s have come down to us in words which “no poetry has outrivaled and no pathos has exceeded, and which hi s gone through centuries with the music xvhich will not let them be forgotten.” She was determined to share Naomi’s journey, her home, her lot in life, and grave in death, whatever or wlierexer thay,would be.' TruiTown it all. she renounced her heathen gods and worshiped Jehovah, the true God. 111. Blessings Which Attended Ruth’s Choice. 1. She found the true God (1:16). Instead of, a heathen god who was unable to help her. she had .the Living God; the God of Israel. 2. She found "friends (ch. 2). AY she Went to glean she was led to the field of Boaz, a man of grace a.id wealth. The servants of Boaz treated her with consideration. 3. A good husband and happy* home (chs. 3 and 4). 4. An honored place in the Israelitish nation (4 :13-17). 5. She became a link in the chain of the Redeemer’s ancestry (4:18-22 cf. Matt. 1:5). The one who fully decides for Christ and gives up all for Hi tn shall receive a hundredfold in this life and in the world to come eternal life. • The story of Ruth is a fine example, first, of right racial relationship.. The union of Ruth with Israel was around the true God. And, second, of dispensational truth: (1) The famine In the land indicates the testing of the Jews in tfie great tribulation. (2) The going into Moab indicates the sojourn of the Israelites among ihe nations. (3) The sickness and death in Moan indicates the chastisement of the Jews and their sorrows in the present age. (4) The return to the land indi cates the gathering of Israel to*their own land, Palestine. (5) Ruth's decision Indicates the gathering of the Gentiles through the influence of.the Jews. (6) The marriage between Boaz and Ruth indicates the union of the church with Jesus Christ. Have Faith in Man Faith in man is a duty as well as faith in God; in fact, our general conduct every day in our intercourse with our fellow-beings depends at every turn on our faith in our fellow-beings. When that faith ceases, society ceases with it, and a rule not of men with normal natures, hut of tigersand foxes in the guise of men commences with iL —John Stuart Blackie. The Communion of Saints Let us learn that we cun never, be lonely or forsaken in this lite. Shall they who have gone before forget us? Shall they love us less because they now have power to love us more? If We forget them not, shall they not remember us with God? No trial, ifien. can isolate us. no sorrow can cut us off froB) the communion of saint's.—• Cardinal Manning.

Modern Clarence Darrow, the lawyer, related at a dinner in Chicago the story of a man whose double life had been exposed. “Tiie man claimed.” said Darrow, “that nowadays vve are all entitled to double lives. He pointed to this playwright and that novelist who advocate free love. But he was put out of the church anyhow. His claim didn't go over. “As one of the church deacons remarked to me afterward, his claim had about as much sense to it as the bigamist's: • “'What 'is home without another?’ ” Prizeu for Churchgoers Prizes are being given by a church near Glasgow.
