"That very good thing all round. Both get rich and live happy, instead of both die. You say yes, Wandler?" For another long minute Wandler kept his eyes on the other, as though to pierce beneath the placid expression that lay like a mask upon Ling's countenance, then he pushed back his chair, rose to his feet and walked to the chart locker. Wandler was not a bad actor. "Archipelago?" he demanded curtly.

"Yes," said Ling Woon. Wandler laughed shortly. "Thought so," said he as he came back to the table and spread out a chart. "Now Where's the place?" Ling Woon bent over the chart, studying it for a minute or two, then his fingernail rested on an island a little to the south of Ceram, in the Banda Sea. "How long that take?" he asked.

Wandler took a pair of dividers from the table drawer and maneuvered with them a moment. "Ten days," he said. "Ten days," repeated Ling Woon. "All right. Very good Chinese headman there, very glad buy ship and cargo and give junk or proa to take us mabbe Singapore." "Right, then," said Wandler.

"You get after the stones, and leave the rest to me." "That very honorable bargain concluded all round." Ling smiled broadly. "I trust you then. You take ship now, everything all very right." He went to the door, opened it and turned around. "Mabbe very bad storm. You think so, Wandler?" A dull, dreary, sunless morning had set in.

He caught Ling Woon's arm and pointed. "Never mind about the weather," he said with a quick intake of his breath. "You see to that before Miss Hearn "I see to it," broke in Ling briskly.
