j The surf charged upon the pebbled
j beach with the huge wrath of a mon
strous beast. The screeching wind
can he found at FORD’S rushed i!1 fl ' om tho lost caves beyond
the sea. wailing and shrieking against
its relentless hunters. It sought pity
and shelter from the land, but the land
shivered and shook and besought it to
be gone. Then the maddened wind
seized the rain and tossed it in torrents
on the roofs and streets. It swooped
upon the waves and grasped the foam
and scattered it far inland. It scratch
ed up the sand and pebbles and pelted
them against the walls and window
panes. Boom and roar and crash! A
fiercer gale had seldom attacked the
little lonely inn on the beach.
Out in tho night, out on the sea. the
fishing boat from strange lands tossed
and tumbled and pitched, groaning and
creaking, plunging and rolling, no bet
ter or stouter in that storm than a
shaving launched by a child. The three
men in it cling helplessly to the spars
and rails, shuddering with cold and
fear and, with less and less hope as tiie
hours passed! seeking aid in their ex
tremity. No light shone: no lifeboat
came. One lost si length and hope and.
scarcely resisting, was swept over
board with a howl of despair. A noth

to many saints, but the third held
fiercely to the mast and laughed at his
neighbor’s prayers and. looking on the
storm, cursed it and defied it.

DAY,
Mrs. Holloway could not rest in her
snuggery in the inn. She rose from
her own special rocking chair and
went to the windows, drawing aside
the warm curtains to peep out at the
storm. She could not see two inches
beyond the glass, yet she remained
many minutes at tlie window, and her
fingers twitched and clasped each oth
er in nervous dread. One might have
believed, so fixed was her gaze upon
the impenetrable night, that she really
could see through the storm, could see
across the roaring, racing waves and
advance her spirit farther than man’s
ken to meet half way that tiling
which was approaching.
From the parlor music came, and the
commingling of voices. A man’s voice
blended with a woman’s so harmoni
ously as to assure tlie hearer of some
thing more than frequent practice by
the singers, of an entire unison of soul
and sentiment—
comes to all sooner or
later. Provide against

lch weiss nicht was soil es bedeuten
Dass ich so traurig bin.
There was no note of undue sadness
in the voices of the singers. For them
the song was the fair expression of a
dream—a song of “sweet melancholy.”
In the far distance of the future they
might repeat the words with more per
sonal import. Today they were too
young to deeply think. To Mrs. Hol
loway the song meant far more than to
them. As her daughter’s music smote
her ears and the lover’s voice joined in
she suddenly left the window and sat
down again in her rocker. She hid
her face with her hands and wept.
lch weiss nicht was soil es bedeuten
Dass ich so traurig bin.
The singing ceased abruptly. In a
moment there came into the snuggery
from the adjoining parlor a young wo
man, fair fitced and with eyes that
were wide with love. She kneeled at
her mother’s feet and drew the hiding
hands from the thin face.
“Mother, mother, mother, what does
this mean?’’
A young man followed, sailor by
dress, sailor by bearing, sailor by bis
freckled, sunburned, salt beaten face,
sailor by his big. rope hardened hands,
sailor by bis keen. open, farseeing eyes.
“Hello, mother! What’s the matter?”
He, too, bent over Airs. Holloway
and. with a son’s regard, placed one
arm lovingly around her shoulders. Yet
the disengaged hand sought ills sweet
heart’s aud pressed it also in an em
bracing desire to comfort both.
“Crying, mother? Crying ibis week
of all weeks in the long, long year?
Oh. mother, mother! I thought we
agreed that there were to be no tears
at my wedding?”
Mrs. Holloway tried to smile, but
sobbed again. She caught her daugh
ter’s hand and drew the girl up to her
breast and patted the sailor's band re
assuringly.
“Fin not sick, dears.” she said, “and
I think 1 am very foolish indeed, be
cause I don’t know why 1 am crying.
It's the storm. I suppose.”
“Not so much of a gale, mother, and
—Jack’s not at sea, at any rate.”
The mother laughed through her
tears.
“Oh. of course.” she said
here and safe it does not matter how
the wind may blow; but, still, my dear,
there are many boats at sea aud many
Jacks. I suppose I am nervous, but 1
seem to see the boats tonight rocking
and tumbling and the men in them
cold and hungry and wet. driving ou
the shore perhaps, and, oh, perhaps not
ready for death. Oh. Katie, dear, 1
shall be so glad when you’re married,
and then I shall give up tin's inn and
get far. far away from the sound of
the sea.”
Kate Holloway looked at Jack Beau
mont with a worried raising of the
world.”
They grasped the gray haired, tender
faced woman between them, laughing
and embracing her, and drew her into
the parlor.
“Dance!” cried Kate Holloway.
“Jack, make her dance. It is the one
perfect cure for the doldrums. Go on;
I shall play.”
So, in spite of her protests, the land
lady of the inn was gently guided
about the room on tlie arm of her big
young son-in-law to he.
Outside the storm howled again, and
the spray and sand dashed against the
glass, and the rain plunged on the roof.
Nearer and nearer to the shore came
the fisher’s boat, nearer and nearer to
death, and one man hung to a rope
praying, and one man grasped the
mast cursing. The cozy lights of the
inn, streaming bravely through the
red window curtains, shone cut on the
beach.
A loud knock sounded on the outer
door, but the dancers were too busy
to notice it. The piano played merrily
on to the accompaniment of Kate’s
laugh aud Jack Beaumont’s whistle.
Mrs. Holloway, carried away by the
cheerful sympathy of the young peo
ple, was laughing herself and forget
ting the sad forebodings of the even
ing. The sole servant left after the de
parture of the summer boarders open
ed the door, and the wind and the
rain dashed at once so furiously into
the hall that she was borne inside and
flattened against the wall by the swing
of the door.
“Eli. Air. Guest, Air. Guest!"’ she
screeched. “Shut to the door. It’s
more nor 1 can manage. What a
night!”
The burly, white haired visitor turned,
panting. The wet shone ou his hair
and the rough blue.cloth of his coat
and upon his oilskin hat. He was too
breathless to answer at once, but put
his shoulder to the door aud with the
aid of the woman closed out the am
gry storm.
“Is Mrs. Holioway at home?” la-
asked with the immense roar of a gale
hoarsened voice.
“To be sure she's at home.” said
the servant, fretful at the invasion of
the storm. “It’s where sensible people
would be on such a night ’stead of
visiting.”
Old Ted Guest solemnly removed his
overcoat and hat. shook his shaggv

head till the rain scattered from it in
a shower, wagged his finger at the
woimin and roared:
“Don't be cross. Maggie, or I’ll
kiss you! I'm a-going in to see the
missis.”
“The wind’s had enough without you
roaring lo boat it.” .Maggie protested,
and the sailonnan made his way with
the certain step of a habitue to the
door of the parlor. He opened the
door with a “good evening, ma'am!”
which bore down the crash of the
piano.
“Captain Guest!” cried at the same
time Mrs. Holloway and Kate and
Jack Beaumont. “Out ou such a
night! Are you afraid of no weather
at all. then?”
“Not tonight, ma’am, nor any night
when I’ve got an appointment. How
do you do. Kate, my dear? You’re
nigh as pretty looking as your mother
•if Jack’s ! nt your age. Jack, you rascal, what
have you been doing to give her them
rosy cheeks? Airs. Holloway, you've
been dancing. And it’s done you good.
You look as young as ever.”
“Have a turn with mother. Oh. do.
Captain Guest!” Kate cried, clapping
her hands.
“Go it. skipper, do! I've done my
share,” Jack cried.
“They used force and compelled me,
captain,” said Airs. Holloway. “That is
my excuse for being so foolish at my
love you. but they love each other bet
ter. They’re going off to be married,
and you’ll he alone. Next week’s their
marriage, and a merry Christmas week
’twill be for them. But you’ll lie left
in the inn alone, and you can’t bear it.
Look here, you’ve known me since I
was boy and you were girl, and ! nev
er loved any other girl. Don't stay
alone. Come to my house—be iny
wife. What should stop you?”
Mrs. Holloway looked at him with
tears in her eyes.
"You know. Ted. you know why it
can never be. 1 must wait, be it ever
so long.”
“Wait?” Ted Guest.roared as savage
ly as he could. “Have you not waited
long enough? Twenty years since he
left you. He's dead.”
"lie was alive ten years ago”—
“And in prison.”
"Hush! And live years ago he was
alive”—
“Only to hog from you. If he were
still alive. Doily.(von would have heard
from him. lie would have been writ
ing for assistance. Dolly?”
“I can't. Ted: I can’t. He is Katie’s
father, and he is my husband—still.”
“Aiiy woman hut you would have
got a divorce"—
“And dragged my name and Katie’s
down? Think of .Tack Beaumont. If
I did what you wished and—he—came
home? What disgrace for him and
Katie!”
"It's not right: it's not natural,
a shame. You have no right"—
“Don't, please, say any more,
friend. There can l>« only one
swer.”
“But if 1 know lie is dead? i have
been hunting for him and can find no
trace. If 1 bring you proof that h'P
can never trouble you again, that lie is
really dead—then. Dolly, woman?”
She was crying softly. From the
piano came the music and the voices:
Ich weiss nicht was soil es bedeuten.
“Dolly, dear?"
“1 don’t know. Ted. I feci so strange
tonight, and i ought to be happy with
Kate and Jack so happy.”
"If I bring you news, then"—
“Oh, Ted. Ted- 1— suppose so.”
The chi captain stooped and kissed
her hand to son! the compact, but at
once jumped erect again, listening.
Above the shriek of the wind, above
the dash of rain, above the roar of
the surf, came a cry, a loud, long
shriek for help from the ocean. Cap
tain Guest's trained ear distinguished
it from all the other calls of the tem
pest stricken night. Tic darted to the
parlor door and burst upon the lovers.
“A boat ashore!” lie roared. “Jack
Beaumont, come along! Some one is
shouting for assistance.”
lie tore through tlie hall like a bliz
zard. followed by the young officer. In
a second they were out in the storm
and down on the beach, where already
some fishermen had gathered. A smack
was being battered ou the shore. Two
men were washed out of it and into the
surf. They were cast almost at Ted
Guest's feet, bruised and bloody aud
senseless. The skipper was at once on
his knees beside them. For an instant
he bent over one man, him who had
< ursed as lie clung to the mast, and
then the captain got up white aud
shaking.
“Is he alive?” cried Jack.
“Y'es,” said oid Ted Guest. ‘’God
help her. lie is alive.”

softly the “Lorelei.”
“It’s very true,” Mrs. Holloway sa id
and rose with a smile, drying her ey:s,
“I don’t know what has happened to

"Bless ’em,” said Ted Guest, beam
ing on the youngsters. "Leave ’em to
their music, ma’am. May I sit in the
snuggery with you7”
For a moment the landlady of the
inn hesitated with some embarrass
ment. Then she smiled on the kindly
faced old greybeard and. assented.
Ihe two lovers were at the piano
again. As the older iolks left the room
their voices took up the interrupted
song:
lch w:i?3 nicht was soil es bedeuten
Dass ich so traurig bin.
Mrs. Holloway shivered again.
‘Tretty, hut sad." said the sailor-
man, and the gale at the moment beat
so tumultuously on the iun as to mo-
beat heavily hut wearily on the land,
with a tired approach and a spiritless
break. Here and there along the beaeli
were still signs of the tempest's rage.
An old tree near the inn was uprooted,
the roof of an old sawmill had been
carried away. Rrgbt in front of the]
inn, but a few yards below low water
mark, the wreck of the sloop lay stilly,
its ribs already half buried by the wash
of the sand. The mast to which the
man had clung lay up on the beach,
heaved there by the high tide. Nothing
had come ashore from t lie hulk to show
who the meu were.
Mrs. Holloway had felt a little in
dignant. Hers was an assured posi
tion in the township where now she
had kept the inn for four years. It
seemed to her that the proper place to
ofier as shelter to the unfortunate mar
iners would have been that place at
whose doors Providence had east them.
“Besides.” she admonished Ted Guest,
“there is no place where they could lie
really comfortable and well attended to
except the inn — no place along the
beach for miles and miiesr”
"It is sp,” said Ktitie. “I don’t know
what the Usher folk about will think of
us. Fancy them being carried away
from our ver.v door! And they can’t be
comfortable at Dave Copeland’s. Jack,
you should have insisted on bringing
them in hen*. I feel ashamed. It was
worse than inhospitable; it was ready
find truly unehrlstianlike.”
"I—I did think,” said Jack Beau
mont apologetically, “but Captain
Guest was in charge, you know.”
4 hey were not,” said oid Ted quiet
ly. "the class of men to bring into such
a house as this is.”
