Captain Ti<ittie Turner, returning
rn r.nalnnd from India, finds pretty
I lota Xorman on shipboard, deserted
by her husband and friendless. After
frustrating her attempt at suicide, he
learns she Is to become a mother.
Turner introduces her to friends of
his on board. Spot Rutherford, his
icife and their four children. As they
near the Red Bea the heat becomes
intense. Joyce, one of the Rutherford
children, becomes critically iU and
Tig ale finds Viola nursing l\er.
fNOW GO OV WITH THE STORY)
CHAPTER 9
IT WAS AS though Joyce called
to Tiggie for help out of the deep
Valley of the Shadow, and though
her eyes closed again Immediately
and she became unconscious of him.
Tiggle could stand inaction no
longer.
*Tm going to carry her up," ha
•aid. '‘You bring blankets and
things—and tell Spot?’'
He stood as he spoke, and slipped
his aims under the child. Her head
fell back as he raised her.
“Ah. look!” Viola said.
He sot down sharply on the edge
of the berth; they held the little
hody between them. “She’s gone!"
*ald Tiggie, staring downwards.
"No —no. she Isn’t! Keep still!”
II was a new voire that suddenly
apoke to him. Viola was on her
knees in front of him, cradling the
fafr head on her arm. "Keep still!"
she said again. "It’s only a faint.
There’s brandy on the shelf behind
me—a small flask! Can you reach
ii? Don't move more than you
need!”
Tiggie obeyed, the quick, contained
voir* pf authority influencing him in
cpitf of his own conviction that the
?hllrt was dead.
9he took the flank from him and
with deft movements opened it.
Keep her just as she Is! T ran man
age. There! Just one little drop—
my darling! Can you swallow if?
Try—oh. try!”
Her words thrilled with a passion
as entreaty, and to Tiggie. watching,
it was as though the spirit paused
on the very verge of departure and
’ooked hark in answer to the call.
“Try!" Viola urged again very
earnestly, “Do try—little sweet
heart! If you ran only swallow just
this, tiny drop for my sake! There!
I knew yon could—l knew it!”
It. seemed to Tiggie that the
nrandy she had tried to administer
was only trickling out again at the
sorner of the half-open mouth, hut
the deep triumph of tier words told
him otherwise; and in a few mo
ments he saw a faint quiver pass
over the little pinched features, while
a small, gasping sigh came to him.
"She is—coming back." Viola said.
He continued to sit motionless,
spellbound, hardly believing, while
she convert the child with tender
words und managed to insert another
drain of the brandy through the
parted lips.
Her own face as she did It was
drawn In lines of almost fierce en
durance. The whole force of her be
ing was concentrated upon the dread
emergency of the moment He could
see that, while he sat passively sup
porting the poor little inert hody on
his knee.q, she was making a gigantic
personal effort, the accomplishment
of which Involved her utmost
strength. It was as though, kneeling
there, ahe poured out all her own
vitality to renew that, which in Joyce
had ebhed so low. And not only by
physical means did she fight that
tremendous battle to bring back the
dying powers, but by the exercise of
a supreme mental energy which to
Tlggie’s simple mind was completely
incomprehensible.
Hooking back later It seemed to
him that he had looked upon some
thing that was very near to a mir
acle though he could not have de
scribed it even to himself, and what
happened that night was to stand out
in his memory for the rest of his
life. ' How long the tremendous bat
tle?.! asted he never knew, but when
Viola lifted her head at last he saw
thaf she had spent the last ounce of
her strength. Her face was ghastly,
and she sank back against the wall
with a gesture of Impotence. But
the child in his arms was breathing.
The ebbing tide had turned.
Spot, coming In softly a few min
utes later, found him still sitting
there on the edge of the berth as if
dazed, while Viola crouched half
fainting on the floor.
"How like you!” he muttered into
Tiggie'* ear as he bent over Joyce.

’’She is—coming back.”
'T —haven’t!" protested Tiggie In a
whisper.
Spot lifted his burden from him.
“I can look after her for a .pell now.
She’ll probably sleep for a long time.
You see after Mrs. Norman! Take
her up on deck for a breath of air!"
Tiggie turned to Viola. She had
moved at Spot’s eht ranee and
dragged herself on to a sent under
the porthole. Her head tested
against, the wall and her eyes were
closed. She looked utteily ex
hausted.
“Give her some water! ’’ said Spot,
still occupied with his child "it’s
the heat.”
Tiggie seized a glass, and. spying
the brandy-flask, poured in some
brandy as well as water. He bent
over her with it. then as she made
no movement held it himself to her
lips.
“Drink some of this! It’ll do von
good.” he said.
She drank submissively, and he
watched her with relief. “Just—l he
heat!” she murmured apologetically
“I know. I’m going to take you
up on deck,” said Tiggie. "Finish
this first!”
“Oh. I don't, think I can walk," she
said weakly.
"Yes, you can. I’ll help you.” It
was, Tiggie’s turn to take command.
“Drink the-rest, of that and you'll be
all right!”
She obeyed him with a slight
shudder.
“Get her out of it!" said Spot.
"There are too many of us in here."
“Gome along!” said Tiggie.
He stooped and put his arm about
the slender, drooping figure. She
yielded to his insistence as though all
power to do otherwise had forsaken
her. And Tiggie, marveling at him
self, half-led and half-carried her
from the scene. As they ascended
the companionway she stumbled and
he promptly lifted her and bore her
to the top, setting her on her feet as
they reached the deck.
A faint, faint breath of air crept
through the darkness from the
Arabian desert. The awful night
was passing—a night that was for
ever etched In hard black and white
upon Tiggie’s brain. As yet he did
not know what this new experience
had done to him. lie only knew that
it had somehow made an enormous
difference in his life.
Still supporting her, he went for
ward till they stood at the rail gazing
out into the blank around them.
Two or three other passengers,
driven up by the heat, were moving
to and fro. But they might have
been ghosts in the dimness. No one
spoke. And there came again to
Tiggie that curious sense of isola
tion, as if they too had been cast
up from the depths to find their
course unaided upon an uncharted
sea. He kept his arm about his com
panion. conscious of Ivor need of sup
port and vaguely wondering what his
status would be when the need ex
isted no longer. Ii seemed to him
HENDERSON, (N. G.) DAILY DISPATCH, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 1934
that they could neVer be .strangers
again after this night of partnership.
Some bond had come into being he •
tween them which was unlike any
thing he had ever known before—a
connecting link which was nejiher of
his forging nor hers, and whit h was
yet possibly all the stronger for that
very reason.
The darkness was lessening Al
ready the new day was upon them
A lemon tinge that was swift I v deep
ening to orange outlined the low hills
behind them They began io ;ee the
heave and fall of the waters around
as they drew away from rhe shore.
“Feeling better now?" said Tiggie,
as he might have addressed a child.
Her head lay against his shoulder.
"I'm very, very fired.” she said
"You want sleep." said Tiggie.
"Yes." she agreed passively. ”1
want erp.”
The light dpi pened. Behind the
hills of Arabia a glory was growing,
like a sword splitting a curtain. The
dawn was close a; hand.
Tiggie iqokert down at the pale
face against his arm. and again its
spirituality smote him with a sense
of unreality lie felt as Though he
looked upon a nictnie of a parity so
exquisite that it appealed to the
aesthetic senses alone. Iter loveli
ness was tlie elusive loveliness of a
dream. *-
The light grew like a kindled fur
nace behind them. In front, island
after island sprang into being ns
though a magic pencil hastily
sketched them in. while the long
shores receded into the background.
Tiggie spoke again, his voice no
more than a whisper. "Shall I carry
you down again to rest?"
She roused herself with an effort.
"No- no, I'll go alone. I’d rather’’
She drew away from him as though
realizing his proximity for ihe ‘first
time. In the pure still light of the
early morning lie saw a faint flush
overspread her face. “Thank you—
lor all you’ve done for me." she said,
and he had a momentary glimpse of
those mist-blue eyes of hers ere tire
black lashes veiled them again. "1
couldn’t have gone on—alone.”
“Are you going?" said Tiggie
gently. “Shall I come with yon as
far as the saloon?”
“No. thank you.” she said. "No,
thank you. I can manage all right
now'.”
She was gone. The place at his
side was empty. Turning to watch
her, the level, new-risen sun smote
him between the eyes, and he drew
back blinded. He groped his way
forward along the deek. feeling as if
the pitiless glare had pierced his
soul. She had nestled against his
breast, like a dove seeking sanctuary.
And now she was gone. lie was
alone with his thoughts. But they
too were reeling, dazzled in the light
of revelation. He could not face
them or attempt to set them in order.
All he knew was that she was gone,
and lie wanted her—with ail his soul
he wanted her —hack by his side

How Silk Affects Some Folk ,
Giving Them Hives , Asthma
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D.
AMONG THE many things to
which some people are sensitive is
silk. By sensitive, we mean a con
dition in which a person reacts in a
i>r Clendening
to fly. and nine
other people who are inhaling the
same material and yet have no
symptoms whatever.
The same condition applies to
silk A good many reports have
been made ot sensitivity of this kind.
')ne. for instance, concerned a young
halt Iff. years old. who had asthma
and occasional attacks of hives and
eczema of .the lace, neck, chest and
hack On careful questioning ii was
found- that ihcv* attacks’ occurred
whenever she wore a certain green
silk' dress. At first it was supposed
tholvit was the dye which caused tlie
trouble, hut on examination it was
found that if she wore any silk ma
terial the same symptoms would ap
pear.
In another case, a young man con
sulted a physician on account of
hives all over his body. By using the
patch test—that is, by laying a piece
of silk on his skin—H was found that

an area of irritation appeared at this
place. On questioning him it was
found that he had recently become
prosperous (how he did so during
the depression is the greatest, mys
tery of rhe Case) and had purchased
a supply of silk pajamas. In order
to be cured of his hives he had t«
give up these luxurious habits »ndl
go back to cotton.
Altogether there are reports of ft
cases of eczema, 4 cases of hives,
and l case of asthma from silk. All
of them appear to be definitely
proved.
What particular substance In the
silk caurgß the trouble Is not alway*
easy to determine. In the manufgc*
ture of silk the glue which is used
’to hind the strands together Is some
times removed, fn certain kinds of
silk, called "souple" and "ecru”,
however, the gum is left in the titter
to the amount of something like 10
to 20 per rent in different grades.
After this the silk is usually weighted
with tin salts, or tannin, or iron, or
logwood, and sometimes lead. Be
sides this, silk usually is dyfd with
coal-tar dyes.
Which of all these substances
causes the reaction is probably not
the same in all cases. Most people
who have studied the matter think
that it in the silk glue which is’re»
