TWENTIETH INSTALLMENT
CHAPTER LXX
Tha Broken Treaty
In th palace of Gretzhoffen King
Michael’ friend and courtlere King
Michael's officials at last beyan slowly
to recover from the period of dissipa-
tion Into which they bad plunged as
an zpresalon of their relief from the
armed menace so recently at their
walla There Is a limit to human pos-
sibilities In Joy In grief In exaltation
of any kind even alcoholic King Mi-
chael and his court ceased to drink be-
cause they could drink no more— the
wine cup had ceased to furnish any
fillip to their besotted brains
Alone among all these others the
prime minister of Gretzhoffen retained
somewhat of his wits Perhaps a
stout heredity made Mm more Imper-
vious to the Inroads of excess or per-
haps he had certain ambitions of his
own which cannily suggested to him
that It were better to remain In pos-
session of all his faculties At least
he was the first to call a halt In the
carouse and to take some account of
events past and future
He looked about him at the wreck
which had been wrought In the palace
by its Inmates — wellnigh as complete
as that lately done by its enemies—
looked at the stained rugs — the broken
furniture the disordered tables His
gaze passed by all this to rest upon
the stupefied guests of whom be now
proceeded to make quick clearance
Michael himself made no protest at
this for he knew little of what went
on about him On his mind still rested
the obsession that he was celebrating
a great victory of the Gretzhoffen
arms and the Gretzhoffen diplomacy
To him therefore the prime minister
now addressed himself in the hope of
some partial restoration of order
some semblance of a government Al-
ways he missed the strong mind and
the strong arms of Count Frederick
now so mysteriously disappeared
Across the narrow neutral lands
which divided these two kingdoms
yonder in the capital of Grahoffen a
quite different state of affairs held
place No dissipation for old Cortl-
slaw and no celebration for any vic-
tory not actually In hand Cortislaw
planned war As for his pledged word
In the armistice and the later treaty
he had long since cast to the winds all
this as a scrap of paper carrying no
value whatever Cortislaw signed trea-
ties only to get something afterward
He had signed this One merely as a
temporary expedient to extricate him-
self from a dangerous situation That
being done the world began all over
again for Cortislaw
In due time Sachlo returned from
his bootless search In the vaults be-
low the Gretzhoffen palace He was
full of apprehension but none the less
must face his sovereign
"Your majesty" he began when at
length that dreaded interview was no
longer to be evaded He hesitated
and as he did so his monarch guessed
his news was none too good
"Well well Sachlo what Is It that
my majesty is to hear?” demanded
Cortislaw "More bad news? You
have not won the secret — you have
lost our last opportunity?"
"Sire it is true! Thus far I have
failed But still—”
"You ask more time! Do you think
time is as Inexhaustible as a river?
Let me tell you it passes with our
hopes with wings Time — more time?
—that Is what you cannot have!”
“But your majesty — ”
"Away with you Sachlo! I have
parleyed with you for the last time
If I did not need you as an officer
' your head indeed should hang on our
gates as a warning to other failures'
"How can I serve your majesty?”
asked Sachlo humbly glad enough to
feel his head safe on his shoulders
for yet another hour
“Call out our army! Mobilize at
once to thi last man! See that the
guns are wady with full ammunition
trains CiHl In the officers at once
See- to it alto that the ships are ready
We will M'cack at once by land and
eea Get you at once to the depart-
’ meant of mi r navy when you have fin-
ish id ymi orders for the land forces
We lpus't ui-ove at once"
"WhtfhM your majesty?”
"Where ulse If not against Gretz-
lioifou? If you could not find their
refiret at year leisure I will blow down
tlimlr towurii and look among the ruins
mtsulf lor 'Whatever secrets they may
hivfd The gods of my ancestors would
not let thewn rest in their graves If I
accepted th’j situation as It rests for
jus today”
A certain relief came to the soul
of Sachlo as he heard thee words
He was a soldier and bs reasoned
that now In the opportunity for anus
he might win beck eometblng of his
lost favor
"It Is well your majesty" said ha
"I shall carry your word at once to
all tb different departments Your
men are but waiting to follow you
Success will be easy for us now for
w know all tbelr defenses now as well
as our own W shall win!”
"Yes” said Cortislaw "we shall win
If It coats the life of every man wom-
an and child of thla kingdom I take
charge now myself and trust no more
boasters like certain advisers I could
name I grant you your place In yobr
regiment once more Sachlo See If
you can fall In that! If your men give
back Ill have my own guns of the
guard behind them to blow them off
the earth"
“Be not too hard upon me your
majesty! I admit my error In allowing
that young girl to leave our shores—
she could have told us the secret had
she liked— all the secret of the Gretz-
hoffen coin But we shall win yet
though at greater cost"
“You had your chance Sachlo You
did not handle the woman Well I
thought you knew more”
To handle a woman your majesty”
said Sachlo— “who ever knew enough
for that?” I confess my fault and
stand ready to pay my share of the
added cost True we should have
kept her until we had all she knew
'Tls doubtful If she ever sees our
shores again We may see the face
of some American admiral — see their
battleships before our port — but as tor
her — never!"
“It Is enough” said Cortislaw "We
march We advance no more clinging
to woman’s skirts It Is our guidons
now shall lead us to their city’s secrets"

the other a boy at first he thought

CHAPTER LXX I
The Rescue
Those whose disappearance had
made such havoc in the plans of a
principality now likewise were upon
the point of certain changes in their
own plans — and counted that any
change must be for the better
“Look!” said Kitty as they stood
at the crest of the cliff gazing out over
the white-topped waves toward the
nodding Balls of the rapidly-advancing
craft “A two-master under heavy
sail Auxiliary no doubt What can
she be?”
It is what I also would ask” said
Count Frederick at her side studying
the craft as intently “Whatever it
be it Is our only hope See she
seems to have the look of a yacht
Watch her bows as they rise and see
how her sparB rake back A yacht —
but whose and what nationality?”
There comes their flag” said Kitty
“British! Well I wish It were the
flag of my own country but better
that than none”
We shall be safe enough under the
Union Jack” said Frederick “I count
on good treatment when they find out
who we are”
She turned to him with a curious
look upon her face
“Say rather when they find out who
you are Count Frederick” said she
You are a nobleman I am an un-
known American girl cast away with-
out a friend on earth”
He smiled at her as though amused
“An American girl who has had
place In the plans of two kingdoms
Perhaps you may not always remain
so unknown if it comes to that”
“Look!” Once more was her reply
as she pointed to the boat
A puff of smoke came from the bow
of the yacht followed presently by
the dull boom of the small cannon
mounted there
They see our signal” said Count
Frederick “Yes she’ll round to and
send in a boat no doubt” And in-
deed such proved to be the plans of
the little vessel
There were other results of the can-
non shot which might not have been
suspected The natives scattered
here and there along the beach in the
forest or in their village were seized
with a sudden terror of what they im-
agined to be a new enemy As fast
as they could they scuttled for shel-
ter in the woods or in the caverns
that lay below the hills the greater
number finding refuge in the latter
hiding places Of these some made
their way In their terror quite through
the series of caverns until at length
they emerged at the crest of the cliff
by a way of the passage which had
brought Frederick and Kitty there at
an earlier time
These found the summit of the rock
already occupied The two strangers
who had caused all the turmoil in the
village stood at the summit looking
out at the sea and waving signals to
the incoming vessel For an Instant
the natives stood irresolute but it was
not for long They Identified these
two white strangers whoever or what-
“Send Thiel” Exclaimed Count Frederick “If You Cut In on Anything
Else I’ll Kill You!"
The others scattered like sheep and
left the captives standing there dazed
yet happy at their deliverance The
petty officer In charge of the landing
came up to Count Frederick and sa-
luted He seemed to recognize In him
tattered as he was a man of former
authority “How do you do your hon-
or?” said he “We came Just in time”
“Yes my men and we thank you
Who are you?” ’
“Private Yacht Princess Liverpool
registry owned by Arthur Wyndham
He’s on board sir — shall we take you
off?”
“Certainly as quickly as possible
But have you any water In the boat?
We have had none for more than two
days”
The sailor turned toward the speak-
er’s companion whose garb was scarce
that of a lady but whose form and fea-
tures surely seemed such
“Do you mean to say that this young
lady? — ” he began
'Yes she has not had a bite to eat
nor a drop of water In two days”
Come quick sir then We’ve a
water breaker In our longboat Have
you anything to fetch along?”
Count Frederick laughed at this
and even Kitty smiled
You see us as we are” said Count
Frederick “We were castaways here
shipwrecked from the steamer Adler”
"Oh yes we heard of that I see I
see — it Is most fortunate we came this
way”
“How far must that have been from
shore where she went down?”
Perhaps a hundred and seventy-five
miles from her port of departure
You’re half that distance here from
where she went down as near as we
can tell No other survivors have
been picked up so far as we heard
How have you got on here?”
Count Frederick shrugged his shoul-
ders “They’d have burned us both
If you had not come If you had not
seen us we’d have starved”
got away when she struck?” he went
on carelessly
“She did not strike” corrected
Count Frederick “she was blown up
Dy an accident”
“Too bad too bad — well well But
I say perhaps the young lady would
like to change? There may be some
sort of woman’s togs in the cabin be
low My sister comes aboard once In
a while you know!” And he essayed
a portentous wink aside at Count
Frederick -
“That will be agreeable I am sure"
replied Count Frederick quietly “and
If you could send down to the young
lady's cabin a bit to eat and a carafe
of water I am sure it will be appre-
ciated She has had neither food nor
drinu for more than two days sir”
“Nor has he — my friend” said Kitty
Gray smiling faintly
“God bless my soul!” said Mr
Wyndham “I never thought of that
Send you down some wine — send you
down a brace of stout If you Uke I
can recommend it — my father makes
it don’t you see”
Count Frederick liking his new sur-
roundings only by comparison with
those he recently had left signed to
Kitty Gray and presently the two con-
ducted by boat stewards departed for
the cabins to which they were as-
signed by the owner of the boat The
latter whether from his late imbibings
or through the effect of the beautiful
young girl’s presence evidently was
what the French call tete montee
half of th torn paper which Sachlo
had coveted! She had ceasod to won-
der et fortune’s caprice now and soon
Indeed all thought of this torn parch-
ment was banished from her mind
Bhe forgot that possibly It also spoke
of broken coins or treasure chambers
or other things of ancient history In
these lands whose vary stones bad sto-
ries could they but tell them
Restored somewhat by food and
drink and having regained a trifle of
her self-respect by the donning of
some woman's garments which eh
found In th cabin Kitty Gray’s buoy-
ant spirts began ones mors to assert
themselves As she loked at her
face in the little mirror she spoke
half aloud the resolution which she
sew In the reflected feature
“I'm not going to England” said she
“Fm not going to America I'm going
back to Gretzhoffen till my work le
done I Surely they will put ua down
at that port — It Is as near as any
Then—-we shall see”
An hour later she returned to th
deck to make her duties to her host
more completely— little as she had
been impressed by his personality or
his conduct which later she was ready
to stigmatize as odious
She met Count Frederick much im-
proved by a change to n well-fitting
suit of flannels which he had found
He smiled now happily at seeing her
You’re looking ripping mademoi-
selle!” said he “I did not see you
have that frock on the island ydnder”
'Nor did I notice that your trousers
were so well pressed there!” retorted
uhe
At this moment Wyndham Joined
them “I was Just saying to Mr
Wyndham” said Count Frederick
“that we owed him a very great debt
of gratitude and that you — ”
“Quite the other way about I assure
you” said Mr Arthur Wyndham the
brewer’s son as he pressed somewhat
too warmly the hand which Kitty ex-
tended him “It is I who am the
debtor I swear I never saw one
change so much!”
His gaze which passed over Kitty
in her new apparel was quite too lan-
guishing Kitty Gray made such con-
versation as she could Unconsciously
she drifted to the side of Count Fred-
erick and finding herself there won-
dered why she had done so Once
more Bhe was alone at the mercy of
men There was not another woman
on this boat But now if it came to
a choice she knew which of these two
men she would elect as her protector
Count Frederick made some excuse
and departed presently so that Kitty
found herself alone with Wyndham
She liked little enough the ardor of
the gaze which he bent upon her now
and arose to leave him
“You will excuse me?” said she “I
have forgotten something”
But as Bhe turned she heard him
stride suddenly toward her felt his
hand upon her arm
No no!” said he “Walt — why do
you go? Finding you here — such a
woman — saving your life and all that
— do you think I am a man of stone —
do you think — ?”
“I think you must excuse me” said
Kitty Gray icily
“But you Just said you owed a debt
of gratitude”
“That any woman rescued from a
peril owes to any gentleman”
Oh I say come now!” he rejoined
"How about a little kiss to the honest
sailor who was lucky enough to save
your life! It’s far from home or help
and no one knows—I say now — "
She sprang from him with a startled
scream a name upon her lips which
came readily enough when she needed
aid
Count Frederick heard her He came
at speed — and arrived Just in time to
see Mr Wyndham pursuing his amor-
ous advances to the extent of casting
an arm about Kitty as she would have
fled The sight was enough Without
pausing for any question he sprang
forward and sent Wyndham reeling
against the corner of the cabin with
one swift sweep of his arm With the
other arm he pushed Kitty away An
instant and he had joined her and was
half carrying her toward the door
Sudden wrath now seized the soul
of this gentleman lately atuned to soft-
er emotions “Stop!” he called out
which he did not know was empty hot
which he was quit convinced waa
wholly unlovely In Us look
Count Frederick bent above him
and scribbled a few words on a bit of
paper at the deek his pistol against
th operator’s ribs
“Send this!” said he “If you cut
In on anything else 111 kill you!"
Th operator looked down at tho
message
“8 O 8 Gretzhoffen" It reed "8
O 8 one hundred end seventy-five
miles south by southwest Send Ad
Una Frederick Send Adelina 8 O
8 Frederick"
Tha operator looked up at Frederick
curiously “Who ar your said hs
“We're not sinking I don't know
Adelina"
“m sink you If you wink" said
Count Frederick grimly “Send! Do
you beer me— send!"
Mechanically th fingers of th op-
erator began to Up the keys Out
Into the elr from the antennae of the
mast sprung tha call: “8 O 8 Grets-
hoffen Adelina Fred-
erick And even as this signal this cry for
help went out Into ths night there
came another cry from the lips of tho
helpless girl cowering in the corner
of the room below “Frederick Fred-
erick come quick!"

SULPHUR AS A FERTILIZER
Experiments Conducted 8eem to Prove
That It Is of the Greatest Value
to tho 8oil
CHAPTER LXXII
Tho Signal
Alone for a moment Kitty looked
hastily about to see that she was not
observed Then she drew from her
bosom a crinkled bit of parchment of
whose existence not even Count Fred-
erick was aware This was her sole
souvenir ber one bit of treasure-trove
from the savage Island She waa not
In parte of France the residue from
gas works Is extensively used as a fer-
tilizer Analysis of several samples
of garden soil prove that the value of
this unusual fertilizing agent Is due
In part to the large amount of aulphui
In it 40 per cent of sulphur and from
1 to 2 per cent of nitrogen in the form
of ammonia or Its salts Expeftment
In flour of sulphur are said to promote
the growth of both roots and leaves
and to give to the plants a deeper green
color than they would have without 1L
Probably It helps to form chlorophyll
Moreover some of the sulphur Is oxi-
dized and becomes sulphate In tho
soli
In this relation it may be pointed
out that experiments at the University
of Wisconsin have been regarded as
proving that the generally prevailing
theory that sulphur in the soil Is of
little value for promoting fertility as
compared with phosphorus and nitro-
gen Is erroneous and that sulphur Is
in fact of vast importance Continu-
ous cultivation together with Insuffi-
cient fertilization causes a large an-
nual loss of sulphur which cannot be
compensated from the atmosphere and
little is brought up by capillarity
from the subsolL The experimenter
therefore recommend the application
of fertilizers containing sulphur to
lands which are frequently cropped
The failure hitherto to recognize the
great value of sulphur In the soli la
ascribed to faulty analytic methods
employed by early investigators
Endless Battle
Look around today Lo here and
now In our civilized society the old
allegories yet have a meaning the old
myths are still true Into the Valley

who will hear to him the clarionB of

Strong soul and high endeavor the
world needs them now Beauty still

“Take him away?” sputtered Wynd-

with those who laid hands upon him
disappeared at the door from which
escape was now cut off for Kitty

Upon the contrary it was he him-

Explaining the Carving
Antiquaries are well acquainted wltlv
the ancient church at Barfreston near
Canterbury England and during tho
summer many tourists visit tho
church Round the Norman doorway
is a quaint carving representing a haro
being hunted by hounds One day a
visitor asked the sexton what was the
meaning of the carving
“Oh” was the reply “it Is taken out
of Scripture It's on the text ‘This le
