"No, it. would have been put to

replied. "He’s made his last trip
If—if be doesn’t recover his mind.”
An expression of pain swept
across her face; then a little fierce-
ly. with hands clenched, she said:
“But he will recover. I feel It! I
shan’t lose hope—not if we can
reach land."
“■With money to pay a good doc-
tor he'll recover," Dick replied,
smiling encouragingly. “That’s
where your treasure will prove a
blessing. It can’t hopdoo you any
more.”
’’Are you sure of that?” she in-
terrupted, pointing to the speck on
the horizoa “Isn't that the lugger
again?”
Dick gave a violent start and fol-
lowed her hand. The object in the
distance was still too vague of out-
line to determine Its character, but
either through imagination or dis-
torted optical illusion they thought
it to be the San Miguel returning to
finish the work Captain Tucu had
planned.
"Isn’t it?” Rose repeated after a
long pause. »
“I don’t know.” Dick murmured. j pat ently
“It looks so, but we may be mistak-
en. If it is-”
“--y-e’U take a raft and leave the
schooner,” she finished for him. ‘Til
never stay aboard if Tucu comes.”
"What good will that do?” He’ll
overtake us on the raft. We couldn't
escape.”
The truth of this, borne hi upon
her mind, made her silent and
thoughtful After a while her face
brightened. “We may buy Tucu
off,” she said eagerly,
us go If we give him that treasure.
That’s all he wants.”
"That and die mythical jewels
from the steamer,” smiled Dick.
She watched him anxiously, and
then sighed. “I see,” i--------------
“one wouldn't be sufficient He’d
want both.”
“Tucu’i greedy.”
“And you couldn’t find the jew-
els?”
‘They never existed.”
“Then we’ll keep the treasure.
Tucu’ll never find it. I’ll die before
I tell him.”
Dick frowned. "Perhaps you'd

she murmured, shuddering. “Wasn't
I protecting myself lo shooting
him?”
"I suppose sc, but—"
When he stopped she looked at
him with twinkling eyei, full of
amusement, “Haven't you any cu-
riosity?” she asked finally. ‘ Don’t
you want to know what the treasure
is, and how we got it? Or are you
afraid that will look like accepting
payment?” ,
He broke in with a laugh. "I’m
dying with curiosity. What is this
treaaure. and where’d you get it?”
She did not immediately answer,
but kept him waiting, smiling pro-
vokingly into his face "It's a rath-
er long story," she began finally,
“we found it on a wrecked subma-
rine.”
"She was an outlaw,” Rose went
on, "and she’d been robbing her
victims before sending them to the
bottom. There was enough prize
money aboard to make all the crew
CHAPTER VIII
I Missionary zeal keeps a Christian
in action for God. After a time at
the church in Antioch, the urge fo
preach the gospel rent Paul out on
bis second missionary journey. This
time his partner was Silas, because
he and Barnabas had separated
over taking Mark along, since he
had turned back in the midst of the
first missionary journey. Timothy
took his place (Acts 18:1-5).
Our lesson is of unusual import
because it tells us how the gospel
first came to Europe, from whence
. It later came to America. Paul’s
j efforts to continue his ministry in
Asia were hindered by the Holy
Spirit (Acts 16:6, 7). It was then
that he was given a heaven-sent
vision of a man in Macedonia cry-
ing for help. At once the party set
out. to obey the leading of the Holy
Spirit (Acts 16:9, 10).
I. Paul’s Ministry to the Pbllip-
plans (Acts. 16:11-15).
j Philippi was an important city,
I a Roman colony and outpost Ap-
! patently the Jews who had come
there to live had not felt any strong
| desire for religious fellowship, for
(Jiey had built no synagogue. Cer-
■ tain godly women met on the Sab-
bath by the riverside for prayer.
\ Here was Paul’s opportunity and
he took it.
] The story of the conversion of
.Lydia has many elements of spe-
: cial interest. It presents the turn-
j ing point in the progress of the gos-
pel, which by the grace and iead-
'He’U let i ing of God brought it northward
- to Europe rather than southward
into Africa or eastward through
Asia. Many of us have heard be-
cause of the way Paul was led, and
one wonders if Europe and America
she murmured, I might not otherwise have been the
| “dark continents" rather than
i Africa and India. We are what we
I are by the grace of God. He sent
us the gospel through Paul that day
at Philippi.
Then we note that the first con-
vert was a woman. She was not
the last woman to give an attentive
ear and a believing heart to the
gospei message. The church
I through all its history has been
blessed by the readiness of women
to bear and heed the gospel.
| We like to note that Lydia set a
! pattern of hospitality and service
I which her sisters in tire church have
; maintained (see v. 15). She “con-
! strained” the visiting preachers to
I enjoy the comforts of her home,
and thus put forward the work of
Christ (see III John 5-8*.
j It is encouraging to observe how
i perfectly the leading of the Holy
j Spirit worked out in the experience
1 of Paul and his brethren. The Lord
sent his prepared messenger to the
place where there was a prepared
; heart waiting to receive the Word.
We may confidently go on the er-
: rands of cur God, knowing that
J when he leads he goes before and
' prepares the way. That does rot
i mean that there will be no trials
! and difficulties, Paul had plenty of
I them (see il Cor 11:23-33). But it
! does mean that we may go with
i the assurance of blessed results, in
j his name, and with tee grace to
j bear whatever comes along the
j way for his glory.
Tire second Scripture portion of
j our lesson is not related to the first
I except that it gives a portion of the
j letter which Paul, by the insptra-
! tion of the Holy Spirit, wrote to the
I church which he had helped to
j establish at Philippi about 12 years
' later.
II. Paul’s Message to the Phllip-
! plans 'Phil. 2.541).
j Although after Lydia's conversion.
Paul met opposition and suffered
j imprisonment (Acts 18:16-4(1), that
| was only the beginning of a blessed
] ministry there.
The church at Philippi though
j poor and. persecuted was toys! and
| warmhearted They tent a gener-
! out gif* to Paul who was in prison
j in Boir.e, He wrote to thank (hem,
! and his letter became a real hymn
j of joy and assurance. It discusses
| Christian experience, its principle,
j pattern, purpose and power,
j Chapter 2 presents the mind of
i Christ a* the pattern, of true Chris-
| tian living. Nothing is to be done
1 tor vain glory <v. 3), but in She
! spirit a! Christ who willingly gave
i up hi* glory with, the Father tha*
! 'at might become our Saviour. It
j bat well been raid that il he had

| Hasten 8»s? day!
When morning dawned they crept
tn deck, wan. pale and exhausted,
but happy. A quirk glance around
the horizon revealed the presence
of no ship. The lugger had disap-
peared. either driven away by the
atom or safe in some harbor to
which site had scooted at the elev-
enth hour. With the same anxious
thought In their minds, they turned
to each other.
”1 hoj e she went down in the
atom.” murmured Hose, smiling
w rkedty.
“No such luck. I’m afraid. Trust
old Tucu to save his skin. But if
he doesn't return I won't kick."
• He will.” replied Rose with con-
viction ’ He'll come back to seize
the schooner."
"Then we must get away. How
long "—glancing at the top of the
forward mast—“would it take to rig
up a sail?”
She smiled and shook her head
"We couldn't do It in a month Just
by ourselves.”
"Then we must drift and drift
until somebody ricks us up’”
She frowned and looked thought-
ful. "if you wen a saiior,” she
began, "and knew—"
•T can team.” he interrupted.
“Tell me what to do."
She surveyed the wreckage aloft
with critical eyes. "If we could get
up w jib," she mused, "Just enough
canvas to steer by. we might lay
our course for iand, if we knew
