The doctor, who knew in a moment that it was the effect of the medicine contained in the pie, exclaimed: "Why, you're just the man Mr.Blinks has been wanting to see for the last week.

Orderly, ask Mr.Blinks if he will have the kindness to come here a moment." The orderly disappeared, and Jenkins stood, looking the very picture of despair, too sick to know or care what was going on.
"Mr.Blinks, I've found your man," said the doctor, when the paymaster's steward made his appearance.
"Well, my fine fellow," said Blinks, turning to the mate, and smiling grimly, "how do you feel by this time?
Very pleasant morning, isn't it! I knew I'd catch you, you scoundrel," he exclaimed, suddenly changing his tune; "I'll teach you to steal my pies!" "I--I--don't know what you mean, sir!" said the mate, in surprise.
"Don't talk to me, you villain," said Blinks savagely; "didn't you eat a pie last night ?" "Yes, sir," answered Jenkins, hesitatingly, "but"-- "I knew you did, you rascal." "But the pie was given to me, sir," said the mate.
"Oh, that story won't do at all.

I'll fix you.

Go below." In a short, time the mate, who was so weak that he was scarcely able to stand alone, was summoned before the captain, who gave him a severe reprimand, and disrated him.

He came down on deck, looking very forlorn indeed; and as he passed by Simpson, who, with Frank and Archie, was standing in the starboard gangway, the former exclaimed: "That's what I call squaring the yards; I'm even with him now." As soon as Jenkins had recovered from the effects of the physic, he began to make efforts to find Jack Smith.
