He was introduced again, and then Janey and the stewardess disappeared into the passage. He heard whisperings. She was getting the tipping business over, he supposed. He sat down on the striped sofa and took his hat off. There were the rugs she had taken with her; they looked good as new. All her luggage looked fresh, perfect. The labels were written in her beautiful little clear hand "Mrs.

I will help you to keep it, and I will see, too, that the Stewardess does not disturb you. Now, is there anything else? Tell me I love people who speak right out what they mean." "No except that I always rise at dawn, and will be gone when you wake. Good-night." The morning after this first night the two lay in their steamer chairs on the upper deck.

A stewardess, with the aspect of a woman at home, went in and out of the cabin, about her domestic calls. The first sailor that I examined was a black-haired, powerful fellow, in an oil-skin jacket, with a good face enough, though he, too, might have been taken for a pirate.

"Your steamer was shipwrecked," said the stewardess, "and a great many poor people were drowned, but you were saved in a boat. Look, there are your clothes; they were never in the water." "Who carried me into the boat?" asked Benita in a low voice. "A gentleman, they say, Miss, who had wrapped you in a blanket and put a lifebelt on you."

It had struck him that he might appeal with his purse in his hand, of course to the interest felt in his affairs by the late stewardess of the yacht. That excellent woman had volunteered to do all that she could to help him.
