That's why I got around now. Guess I'm payin' her a 'party' call right now, 'fore the folks get around. Say, I'm goin' to marry that gal. She's sure a golden woman. Golden! Gee, it sounds good!" Beasley grinned. He was on a hot trail and he warmed to his work. "Goin' to ask her now?" he inquired amiably, eyeing the spirit the man had poured out. Ike laughed self-consciously.

"Well, I altered my mind," said Fraser, amiably, "I don't like treating ladies roughly, but if the cap'n comes on board and finds you here it'll be bad for me, that's all." "What time do you expect him?" enquired Miss Tipping. "Not before we sail at three in the morning." said the mate, glibly; "perhaps not then. I often have to take the ship out without him.

At the same moment, while still lingering in the first gallery, Fagerolles ran up against them without seeing them. He started, being no doubt annoyed by the meeting.

Jan would probably give a jolly, welcoming sort of bark. Finn would make no sound. Jan would amble amiably forward, right up to the stranger's feet, with head upheld for a caress. Finn would sooner die than do anything of the sort. He would keep his ground, motionless, showing neither friendliness nor hostility; nothing but grave unwinking watchfulness.

"Let me show you what a comfortable cruising cabin I have." "Hi, oh, yowl" yawned Hal, again. "Jack, I think I shall enjoy my rest to-night."

"Has the Sub-Treasury or the Aquarium made a total loss, or what's the matter?" he cheerfully proceeded. "No," said Cuyler, sourly. And without further answer he passed on into the President's room. "Good-afternoon, Mr. Cuyler," said the President, amiably, but the local secretary with a glum face stopped him. "Well, we've lost O'Brien," he said. "What's that?" demanded the other.

He could not sail until February, and as soon as the matter was decided obtained leave of absence and repaired in all haste to Albany, to be present at Hamilton's wedding.
