You said a little while ago you'd never seen any one of my size with bigger and harder muscles.

Well, if you knew what my full name is, old man, you'd understand why I began developing them,--I've got a lot more too that you can't see,--when I first began going to school." "What is your other names ?" inquired the sailor curiously.
"Algernon Adonis," said Percival.
The sailor was silent for a moment, thinking of the proper thing to say.
Then he said: "You're dead right.

It takes a heap of muscle to pertect a name like that." Three women stopped in front of the two men.

Percival kept his eyes lowered.
"Why,--why, Auntie,--I know him," fell from the lips of one of the trio.
There was not only surprise in her voice but a trace of awe as well.
The swabber looked up quickly.

He found himself gazing straight into the eyes of the speaker.
