"Have you seen the servant to-day?"
"Sure! He got my early breakfast. We have two here, you know."
"Ever sleep like that before?"

"What are you getting at?" demanded Captain Godwin. "You don't think I was doped, do you?"
"Looks like it," was the reply.
"Then the whole native population is up to something!" shouted the Captain. "I've noticed a good deal of whispering lately. Do you think the tribe on the island has gone over to the insurrectos?"
"I don't know," Ned said, "but it seems to me that something is going to happen here before long."
"I'll watch out," declared the Captain.
