Was
n't
it
--

Crusoe
who
rubbed
sticks
together
?
"
she
drawled
.
"
But
I
have
read
the
personal
narratives
of
a
score
of
shipwrecked
men
who
tried
,
and
tried
in
vain
,
"
I
answered
.
"
I
remember
Winters
,
a
newspaper
fellow
with
an
Alaskan
and
Siberian
reputation
.
Met
him
at
the
Bibelot
once
,
and
he
was
telling
us
how
he
attempted
to
make
a
fire
with
a
couple
of
sticks
.
It
was
most
amusing
.
He
told
it
inimitably
,
but
it
was
the
story
of
a
failure
.
I
remember
his
conclusion
,
his
black
eyes
flashing
as
he
said
,
'
Gentlemen
,
the
South
Sea
Islander
may
do
it
,
the
Malay
may
do
it
,
but
take
my
word
it
's
beyond
the
white
man
.
'
"
"
Oh
,
well
,
we
've
managed
so
far
without
it
,
"
she
said
cheerfully
.
"
And
there
's
no
reason
why
we
can
not
still
manage
without
it
.
"
"
But
think
of
the
coffee
!
"
I
cried
.
"
It
's
good
coffee
,
too
,
I
know
.
I
took
it
from
Larsen
's
private
stores
.
And
look
at
that
good
wood
.
I
confess
,
I
wanted
the
coffee
badly
;
and
I
learned
,
not
long
afterward
,
that
the
berry
was
likewise
a
little
weakness
of
Maud
's
.
Besides
,
we
had
been
so
long
on
a
cold
diet
that
we
were
numb
inside
as
well
as
out
.
Anything
warm
would
have
been
most
gratifying
.
But
I
complained
no
more
and
set
about
making
a
tent
of
the
sail
for
Maud
.
I
had
looked
upon
it
as
a
simple
task
,
what
of
the
oars
,
mast
,
boom
,
and
sprit
,
to
say
nothing
of
plenty
of
lines
.
But
as
I
was
without
experience
,
and
as
every
detail
was
an
experiment
and
every
successful
detail
an
invention
,
the
day
was
well
gone
before
her
shelter
was
an
accomplished
fact
.
And
then
,
that
night
,
it
rained
,
and
she
was
flooded
out
and
driven
back
into
the
boat
.
The
next
morning
I
dug
a
shallow
ditch
around
the
tent
,
and
,
an
hour
later
,
a
sudden
gust
of
wind
,
whipping
over
the
rocky
wall
behind
us
,
picked
up
the
tent
and
smashed
it
down
on
the
sand
thirty
yards
away
.
Maud
laughed
at
my
crestfallen
expression
,
and
I
said
,
"
As
soon
as
the
wind
abates
I
intend
going
in
the
boat
to
explore
the
island
.
There
must
be
a
station
somewhere
,
and
men
.
And
ships
must
visit
the
station
.
Some
Government
must
protect
all
these
seals
.
But
I
wish
to
have
you
comfortable
before
I
start
.
"
"
I
should
like
to
go
with
you
,
"
was
all
she
said
.
"
It
would
be
better
if
you
remained
.
You
have
had
enough
of
hardship
.
It
is
a
miracle
that
you
have
survived
.
And
it
wo
n't
be
comfortable
in
the
boat
rowing
and
sailing
in
this
rainy
weather
.
What
you
need
is
rest
,
and
I
should
like
you
to
remain
and
get
it
.
