disaster we was surrounded. And, help less and staggered, I turned my eyes uj} into the tree and saw nothing there by

the branches and the long finger shape@ leaves and the sky beyond them.

**But as I still looked up at all this 1 see a drop of something fall from one of the lower branches and light upon the shoulder of the captain and murk the white holland jacket that he was a-wearing.

‘‘And, dazed with fear and horror, | give a groan and pointed at that drop and drew all their eyes to it, and they, like me, shrunk shudderingly and fear- fully away.

‘*For the drop that had fallen on thn captain’s shoulder was a drop of blood.’’

CHAPTER IL

By the time that he had reached this part of his narrative we were all—as you may understand—much roused to curiosity. The marines and the minute- man had even Jet their drink get cold in the bow] while they listened to the story he was telling in rude language, but certainly most graphically. The priva- teer’s men were regarding him with a look of admiration as though proud of one who was of their own class of sail- or, and, as for me, I was staring at him wore open mouthed than ever, and the work in the kitchen being now done for the night, my dear and honored mother had opened the little window through which the dishes were handed from that place to those partaking cf food in the parlor, and was herself lis- tening with all ears to the seafarer’s story, and behind her could be seen the red head of Belinda—our kitchen wench —who was gaping over my mother’s shoulder with wide staring eyes.

Again he took a great draft of his rum, which by this time was as cold as the punch in the bowl, and again he lit his pipe and smoked a few whiffs, doing so silently, and as though thinking deeply, and then, when he saw that we were all a-waiting most eagerly the con- tinuance of his story, he began again.

**Mates all, and you, tco, mistress,’ with a duck of his head to my mother, as he resumed, ‘‘you may well believe that that there drop of blood a-falling from the tree nea1ly froze all the blood in our own veins with horror. For in no way could we conceive how he who had so mysteriously disappeared shculd have left bis blood—for we never donbt- ed that it was his—upon that tree For. first of all. debated among ourselves, he was not a wounded man,

And yonder she sits in my cane- bottomed chair.’’

Many a man sits silent and alone in » home of mourning and conjures up before his eyes the face and form of the woman who was once a loving wife and a faithful helpmate. In thousands of such cases the wife might still be alive and well and happy, had the man been not only a good husband, but a wise adviser. Women shrink from the ordeal of consulting a physician. They shudder at the thought of submitting to the obnoxious examina- tions insisted upon by most physicians.

In the majority of cases they have none of this hesitancy about consulting their husbands. A wise man will understand at once that troubles of this description will soon break down a woman’s general health. He will understand that a specialist of emi- netice and world wide reputation should be frankly consulted atonce. Dr. R. V. Pierce, for thirty years chief consulting physician to the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Insti- tute, at Buffalo, N. Y., is one of the most eminent and widely- known specialists in the world. With the assistance of a staff of able physicians, he has prescribed for many thousands of ailing women. He hag discovered a wonderful medicine for wo- men, that may be used in the privacy of their homes. It is known as Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It cures surely, speedily and permanently,all weakness and disease of the distinctly feminine organism. It allays inflammation, heals ulceration soothes pain, gives rest to the tortured berves, and checks debilitating drains.

And. se ondly, he had been so ill and fev and prostrated that he could nut rise from the ground, so how could it have come about that he could ever have got up into that tree. whose lowest branch vi l l ej t feet from th And, thirdly, even allowing that le }c uld bave got there, what had }

‘* *We are in God's hands,’ our skip per said, ‘and he alone directs our course. And in his goodness he has seen fit to land us upon this terrible island We must bow to him

* ‘But, capen,’ says our mate, ‘what is to be done? Since he is not there he must be somewhere—unless it be that he bas cast himself into the sea.’ ‘**He bad no strength for that,’ I said. ‘Last night he could neither

move hand nor foot.’

‘* *Yet,’ says the mate, ‘he could get up there,’ and he pointed to the

branch of the tree off which the blood had dropped. Meanwhile our captain had been examining of that tree most careful and was a scratching at the bark on its trunk and, as he scratched, forth from it there oozed a dark red liguid that itself looked like blood, but was a little paler, looking indeed more like blood mixed with water.

‘And now upon the captain’s face there come a look of relief, and, ‘Men,’ says he, ‘this here ain’t quite as terri- ble as we thought. That weren’t no blood of poor Will Winter’s what drop- ped upon my shoulder, but only the sap what this strange tree exoods. Look here!’ and with that he rubs his finger on the moisture and shows it to us, and sure enough it was the sap of the tree itself, but red as blood.

** *All the same it do look like blood,’ fays one on us. But now the captain— because, maybe, he would not give in to no sooperstitions nor yet encourage them in his men—laughed at their ideas.

‘**Why, men,’ hesays, ‘have you nev- er seen, at home or abroad, plants and trees what have a liquid in them like blood? What about the schumack of the Americas, or the beet of our own dear land, to say nothing of the cochineal? Go to! These ideas is unworthy of Brit- ish sailors.’

‘*Yet, all the same, langh at and ban- ter usas he might, there was many of that ship’s crew who did believe most solemnly that the blood from that tree Was, in some way or other, connected with the disappearance of poor Will

‘*But, mateys all, there was summat else to do than to stand a-gaping up into the tree and sperkerlating abont it. A search party must be made to go around the island to see if by any chance he could be on it, though it wern’t no way likely that he was, and arterwards they was to take one of the boats and row around it to seeif by any other chance he was floating in the wa- ter cr under the water, into which one could see deep, for it was as clear asa trout stream at home, and also there was the leak to be found and calked and the Loving Friend to be somewhat repaired.

*“‘So to work we all sets, some on us over the island, where we found naught, not even so much as a foot mark which might have showed which way Will had gone; some on us round the island in a boat, peering down on the sand through the clear water, and some on us working on the ship. And in this way the day passed and the second night come on us again.

‘‘But dooring all the day and over our discussions as to whatever could have happened to Will we had been arrang- ing plans for the coming night, for all on us had come to the certainty that that tree was in some way answerable for his disappearance. How it was s0 answerable we could not say, but we felt it, and, even if it were not answer- able for that, it must at least be so for the deadly fever which had seized on him, for now we was full certain that it was not the calenture he suffered from. Our arrangements for the night was therefore as follows:

‘‘Fust, of course, a few hands must man the ship for the watch and tostand by her as she righted with the night tide and as she again slewed over to port as the tide went out, but naturally not many was required for this.

‘‘Secondly, the rest of our crew was a-going to stay on the island, taking turn and turn about at sleeping and watching, but all to be directly beneath the tree. We knowed, mateys all, that there were some danger in this. We knowed that Will Winter had landed on the island a sound man and was a few hours arterwards a dying one; we knowed that we had felt strange things touching us; we knowed that Will had disappeared; but we knowed not how it all happened, and how it happened we meant for to find out.

“‘The first watch was the mate—the captain as in dooty bound staying by the ship—and six men, there being me and six others sleeping. The second watch was me and them six while the first watch slept. The watches was to be of five hours, and naturally no dog watch.

‘*‘We begun that night witha prayer, the captain coming ashore to say it, and all on us a-kneeling down, and when in conclusion he prayed for light te lighten our darkness, amen was said

most fervent by one and all. And then

the first watch was set. each man hav- ing a musket, loaded with slugs—but what there was to fire on no one knowed, though all felt there was dan- ger in the air—and soon we others was all asleep
