Luclle Green, charming, but with (ate
Is visited at the Green*' summer Island
home by Monty Blalney. She proposes »'■
Reek's fast. All food Is banished. I
Frank Bopp, a rival suitor, appeal* un
expectedly. To set rood for himself bl
attempts the mainland by motor boat. i
Tbs bo*t breaks down and Bopp la ■*
rooned. During.a fierce storm Mrs. Oreeo

ivhlch Intoxicates bar.
Blalney discovers Luclle and Bopp nl ta
iling doff biscuits. He proposes to end
.ho fast, but there is no food. Mr*. Green
Hidden ly disappear* and all hunt for her.
Blalney receives a telegram addressed
ST. Blaney from Vlda Dumnore, an-actress,
ipeaklng of marriage. lie Is nonplused,
>ut Lucile's Jealousy Is aroused. . )
A supply boat Is wrecked on rocks near

rues Vlda. She Is dressed an Ronallnd. >
The boat's captain explains that Vlda
lad donned the costume for safety. All
iro forced by the high sea to ramata on

Vlda discovers In Blalney a dramatlo
irltlc who had praised her work. besides'
>e!ng her rescuer. She explains to bltn
hat she Is engaged to a Ned Blaney. t
I fouud Captain I'S-rTJus "and Jim, a
londescrlpt picture In the evening
iothes and blazer suit, wondering ill
t ease about the living room. I asked
or Miss Green. ' v» . < ■ •
"She went out with tb«t other young
nan," said the captain. "She salA ate
vus going to look for her mother." <1
iad almost forgotten the missing Mrs.
Jrecn. I was about to start out search
ng again when I remembered my
>roui!se to Miss Dunmore.
"And where la Mr. Clair?" I asked.
"I seen him out In the yard looking
or walnuta under them bard maple
rees," volunteered Jim. "I didn't tell
lim the.v weren't a nut bearing tree on
his Island. What's the useT It ftia't
luttlng time yet nohow."
Miss Dunmore came downstair* In
l dress of Luc lie's, or, rather a blouse
ind skirt of the sailor suit order. She
leemed very little ruffled by her ad*
■enture on the high seas. '« -i •
"Where fa Miss Greehf she asked,
ooklng around. "I want to thank her
'or her kindness." **-» t—
"She is out searching for her moth
er." That sounded like a foolish state
nent, so I qualified it "Her mother
llsappcared last night during (ke
itorm." .-• • •- .i • j
"Oh!" Miss Dunmore did not seem
particularly impressed. "I don't- tee
low any one could get lost on a little
sland like this."
"That's where the mystery comea in.
There are only about half a doaen
jlaces she could be, and we've looked
n all of them."
"1 had a brother who walked in bis
ileep," said Captain Perkins, follow
ing up a train of thought suggested by
Mrs. Green's disappearance. "Do yon
vant to hear the story about the funny
jlace where the zebra bit hlm?*,: < -
"A little later," I suggested hastily.
'Just now we all ought to scatter and
lelp look for Mrs. Green."
"How was she dressed?" Captain
Perkins inquired.
"I dont know. I'm not sure w&etu
>f she was dressed at all or not^that
s, sbo probably liad on * kimono or
iometlrfng, but I don't think sbe bad
in regular skirts and things;"
"We might bike n stroll along the
seach," suggested Jim, whom I sus
lected of wanting to display his strip
id clothing in public. "Possibly we
ulKht find something we could eat."
After tbe captain and Jim had start
>d out Miss Dnnmore seemed lost in
leep and bewildered thought 1 for®-'
jore to bn.uk In on so portentous a
jrain struggle.
At last she spoke. "Where do you
suppose the zebra did bite Captain
Perkins' brother?" '. . , i
"If you go with him perhapa be will
:ell you," I said, with an Idea of doing
aiy searching alone with a weather
>ye constantly peeled for Lucfle sad
Bopp. ■ ..v • t
"No," she demurred, "I would much
rather go hunting with you. It- will
ae more fun." • »>*» 1 >
Evidently she thought that hunting
aid ladles In tbe underbrush was onie
jf our Innocent island pastimes.
I sighed. We sallied forth. If I had
tvanted to run across LucilG whea-fc
svas alone I was just as anxious to
ivoid her while I was in the company
jf Miss Dunmore. ■
"Do* we hare to And her before
lunch?" -
I explained painstakingly the remote
possibility either of finding Mrs. Green
jr of having any lunch. Contrary to
my expectations, sbe took the tafbrma
tlnn about th? lack of food' Jxist :*r
cheerfully as she had everything ehfc
I don't believe It would be poselbKto
dampen the spirits of that girl—sot
that sbe was unresponsive to another'*
distress, for I hare rarely-met cue so
sympathetic, but she waft persistently
optimistic. .'£ -«t»;
"I don't mind going without lunch a
bit," she smiled. -"I very seldom eat
anything until after the abow ft Okhl'
s&yksyi' uaiy mere -wont' do any
khoir tonight to cat after, will thero?
*ha; Will aeem funny. I've always
btah In shows ever since I was a kid,
erapt a few weeks In tbe middle of
summer, and then generally I was re
hearalng."
She laughed gayly.
Vl<i& chattered- away with all the
heedless gayety of a child who knows
that some one Is going to provide the
next meal She - told me at length
about-her fiance. -That took a lot of
tfie romance out of our walk. Not
that I waa falling In love with VIJa
net a bit of It—but it was too bad as
long as I had lost favor with Luclle
on her account to have her tell me
about her lore affair with some one
els«. I hate since reasoned that she
regarded ma aa being old enough to
b« her- father or her Uncle Jack and
treated me accordingly.
"1 wouldn't mind being all alone
with yon on tblfe-Island," she confided
"If you were only Jack."
"Jack? Who is Jack?"
"I mean Ned," * she explained "I
was going to marry Jack, but Ned
Wouldn't have It We wouldn't care
much about food even," she went on.
"Ned would find something for me.
He'a dreadfully ingenious. That comes

from writing plays, I giioss. One has
to be clever to think out plots for
plays, don't yon think?"
"Not most of tUeui." I lapsed Into
my critical manner. "Not aa clever
as you have to be to sell them."
"He wrote a play once about two
people on a desert lBland. There was
a bally part for the girl td It They
found bananas and cocoanuts to eat
and some kind of birds' eggs."
"In play* and stories dealing with
cutaway* on an bland," I explained,
"the seene Is always conveniently1 lo
cated on a tropical Island where all
sorts of food products grow wild. May
I ask If In Mr Blaney's play there was
any treasure burled on the Island?"
"Yes," she assented.
"And were they attacked by savages
armed wltfe poisoned darts?"
"Qh, you've read his play!"
"No, but I know "Just what ought to
be In every castaway story. This is
land that we are on, you see, Is quite
different. Nothing more nourishing
than spruce gum ever grows here, and
there Isn't a native with a poisoned
dart within a thousand miles unless
you count Luclle."
"What do you mean by that?"
I did not answer. An Idea bad
germinated from something she had
said. There was a natural food re
source on the island. 1 might be able
to develop It quietly by myself and
then if it was successful confer It as a
boon on tho eutlro community.
Whe» we were about two-thirds of
the way around the Island a stinging
patter of raindrops drove us to shelter.
There was a small lattice summer
house overlooking the lake near by,
and w» hastened toward It In our
path was a shallow strip of water left
by the wavee of the night before and
augmented by the rain. Vida looked
In dismay at the muddy water.
MI-«fcver can.cross It!" she walled.
These are Miss Green's shoes, and I
must not rain them."
"We've got to get under cover," I
argued.
"You could carry me across," she
suggested practically—"that Is, If you
caa -U£t Dae." ' « .
. "I carried you farther than that this
morulas."
"Were you the brave man who risk
ed hlg life for me?" she exclaimed Im
pulsively, then added with naive con
ceit: "I know Ned can never thank
you enough. Just pick me up in your
big itrons arms and put me down the
minute we get across." • •
64 the fathered her skirts carefully
about ber, and I picked her up easily
and splashed through the puddle. I
carried her Into the summer house.
Locile -and Bopp were there. I stood
a too meat tn stupefied alienee and then
pot Ylda down.'v > 7
It started to rain," I stammered,
"and we had to hunt up sholter. Miss
Dunmore was to afraid of spoiling
joat clothes."..
That's fell right," said Ludle sweet
ly. "I dint mind their being wrinkled
a bit I'm going to have: that suit
ptjjsed kuyvray."
Floundering tn the net of a woman's
tareana, I wa»- utterly at a loss for
an answer.
