“Dreaming, Richard."
“Oh, I remember—the men who fol-
low mirages die.' That was the night
when she came to give me ‘God
speed,’ and It waa for that man who
cams to mo that night on the plateau—
who saved mat Was It your*
"Yes.”
“And everything—all you said—was
a Ha. a charitable farcer*
“It was tha truth."
Ha did not speak for a moment. He
bent lower In the saddle, as though
to penetrate the twilight that bid her
from him. And suddenly It waa her
band that sought his and held It.
“I am sorry!” she said. “I did not
mean to hurt you."
“I have to thank you," he answered
unevenly.
Than gently ha freed himself and,
pulling his horse round In the middle
of the road, galloped back In the di-
rection of tha barracks.
CHARTBR XV.
Mrs. Farquhar.
“And so wa part company 7”
“I think It batter, Mme. Amend.”
Sylvia looked up from her book. It
was “East Lynne,” and the condition
of tha cover suggested assiduous read-
ing.
“I dare say you are right," she said
lastly. “All the same, I don’t quite un-
derstand you, Miss Smith. You saved
me In rather an awkward dilemma
the other night And now you want
to leave me.”
Gabrlelle smiled.
“If I was of any assistance to you,
it was for reasons that had nothing to
do with you personally.”
"Sylvia fidgeted irritably. "What do
you mean?” she asked.
“Madame Arnaud, you are pretend-
ing. You want to pretend that the
lives that you have linked to yours
have really nothing to do with you—
that you are not responsible, that you
are Just a beautiful, Innocent woman
sitting among your dreams on a moun-
tain top far above the turmoil of or-
dinary mankind. And you want me
to pretend with you. But I really
can't. As you said—I know too much.
I'm a discomfort.”
The liberty curtains dividing the
open door from the courtyard were
pushed aside and Sylvia's English
maid made her discreet appearance.
“If you please, madams, a lady
wishes to see you—Mrs. Farqubar,
from England."
There fallowed n brief, poignant al-
Isnoe, Sylvia Amand's hand tightened
convulsively on the bonbonnlere, and
aha looked at Gabrlelle with the help-
lees appeal of a child who suddenly
realises that R haa lest itself la a
crowd of strangers.
“Tall Mrs. Farqubar that 1—t am—”
But Mrs. Farqubar was already In
the room. She stood for a moment on
the threshold, smiling at them both,
with the delighted consolousneas of
having successfully performed the part
of an agreeable surprise packet. Her
appearance undoubtedly heightened the
desired effect. She wore a white
dress and a white toque. Moreover,
she was profusely powdered, and
looked, If possible, younger and wore
daringly self-assured than over. For
a minute, during which she hesitated,
her bright eyes rested rather earnestly
on Gabrlelle Smith, who, bowing for-
mally, went out Into the courtyard
with a grim amusement written on her
small, sunburnt face. Whereupon
Mrs. Farqubar advanced and kissed
Sylvia on both cheeks.
“My dear Sylvia—my dear little Syl-
via—now I am sure I am the last per-
son on earth you expected—an old
woman traveling In a savage country
full of foreigners! Ifs almost Inde-
cent, Isn't itr
Sylvia smiled faintly, Uke someone
awakened from a stupor.
“Oh, I don't know. Wont you sit
down? I certainly didn’t expect any
English person In this dreadful place.
If one can live In England—” She
broke off suddenly. “What made you
leave?"
“You see, I have been rather lonely.
Since Richard left—"
“Ah, yes, of course." Sylvia eat
down with her back to the sunlight,
her bands clasped tightly In her lap.
“You must miss him very much.”
“Oh, terribly. But that's our fate—
to have to get on without people we
have suffered for. You, for instance.
I’m sure sometimes you feel sad—a
little homesick—”
“Often.” Sylvia looked up eagerly.
“We are alike, rather. We under-
stand each other.” Mrs. Farqubar was
silent a moment, considering the white-
faced woman opposite her with bright,
affectionate eyes. “And so you are'
sometlmee lonely? If It were not for
Captain Arnaud I should pity you, Syl-
via."
“Yes, of course, If It were not for
Deslro—” She stopped, as though
seeking for words, and slowly, beneath
the persistent gase of the blue eyes,
the last trace of color died from her
cheeks. The band that passed Mrs.
Farquhar’s cup aefoss the table shook.
“I am sorry—but the life out here
makes one so nervy and Jerky."
“Yes, 1 can Imagine that,” Mrs. Far-
quhar agreed seriously. “I bad hoped
to find Captain Arnaud here. I was
so charmed with him, you know, and
wished Richard and he bad been more
friendly. Poor Richard I” Sylvia’s
hand tightened on the carved arm of
her chair. She made a movement as
though on the edge of an Impulsive
speech, then drew back, white lipped
and silent. Mrs. Farquhar bent for-
ward and patted her on the knee. “I
didn’t mean to hurt you. I know how
delicate and sensitive you are, child.
But you must never worry about Rich-
ard. He writes me such wonderful
letters, and In each one of them he
talks about you, how good you are,
bow much nobler and better you are
than other women. Really—It Is quite
touching—” She stopped short Syl-
via Arnaud had risen to her feet She
stood prfeetly upright for a moment
staring In front of her with blank eyes,
and then suddenly she lifted her hands
to her head.
“It’s the beat—the awful sun-
shine—”
She collapsed, senseless, at Mrs. Am-
quhar’s feet
Mrs,. Farquhar got up. She looked
down at the motionless figure but did
not touch It. She rang the little ori-
ental bell lying In the midst of the
English silver.
“Your mistress has fainted,” she
said coolly to the panic-stricken serv-
ant who answered the summons. “I
think a little sal volatile Is all that
Is needed. I leave her, I am sure, In
good hands.” She smiled graciously
and went out Into the sunny court-
yard. Gabrlelle Smith, who stood by
the fountain, trimming the luxuriant
ferns, turned as she heard the light,
quick tap of Mrs. Farquhar’s French
heels. Mrs. Farquhar held out her
band.
“I have to thank you for your let-
ter,” she said.
. “There isn’t any need for thanks. I
hesitated for twenty-four awful hours.
But I felt I had to do something. Once
I had seen your name and address on
that envelope I dared not keep si-
lence."
“1 shall never be able to repay my
debt I hurried here as fast as ex-
press trains and wretched French
packet boats could carry me. I want-
ed to reach Sldl-bel-Abbes before you
left. You have given up your situa-
tion?"
"Yes."
“Will you come to me?"
Gabrlelle Smith did not answer for
a moment Her eyes rested steadfast-
ly, significantly, on the faded, pow-
dered face.
“I think—better not Mrs. Farquhar.
You know nothing about mo—not even
whether I am respectable—"
"You are the woman who has given
me the hop* that I may so* my eon
again before I die. That Is all 1 care
about! I am an old woman. Miss
Smith, and what lies before me Is al-
most beyond my powers. ! need you—
my son needs you. Will you think of
that?"
"Yes," Gabrielis snswsred simply,
"Then I rely upon you. Here Is
my card. Corns to see me as soon
as you can. We must act at once. Will
you accompany me to my carriage?"
As Gabrlelle helped her silently Into
th* waiting victoria Mrs. Farqubai
turned for a moment to glance bebluD
her. Her face, which had suddenly
grown old and lined with grief, lit op
.with a flash of malicious enjoyment
“When w* women go to th* devil
we go all th* way,” she said. “We
outdo Lucifer himself—w* make hell
a comparatively respectable abode.
And men can’t pay us out—can’t get
at us. Only our own sex know how
to do tbst I know bow to do It 1
have actually made Sylvia Arnaud
faint” She sank back ameng th*
cushions with a sigh of relief. “And
that will be my consolation on my
deathbed," she finished, almost cheer
fully.
CHAFTIR XVI.
In the Teeth *f the Storm.
During th* first night of that great
march southward they bad sung lus-
tily. Now they were silent. No man
spoke even to his neighbor. From
time to time they exchanged glances—
lightning, stealthy glances, which
passed unnoticed. But that was all.
It was th* only sign that they were
still men.
The last village lsy behind them.
Two hundred miles away there waa
Sldl-bel-Abbes. In those two hundred
miles there bsd been many things—
and eight daysl Eight days! They
had ceased to count Th* milestones
had disappeared. Their memories
were blank. Mechanically as each dis-
tance of ten kilometers was forced be-
hind them they dropped stupidly Into
th* burning sand and five minutes
later mechanically roe* and went on
again. At night their whit* camps
stretched Ilk* a string of pearls Into
the darkness, and th* bivouac fires
shone brightly, but they did not sleep.
They sat huddled together for shelter
against the blasting cold of the des-
ert night, and stared In front of them,
or at on* another. Before th* dawn
broke they marched on again. Their
eyes were red-rlmmed and bloodshot
with the sand and the glare of the sun.
But they neither cursed nor com-
plained. Only from time to time they
glanced at one another, and always
with that smoldering, searching Inter-
rogation, “Is It yet?”
The day was cloudless. Since dawn
no shadow had crossed the brasen
monotony of withered asure. Yet there
was darkness In the air as though light
had burned up light Itself, and the
great ball of the sun had sunk behind
a yellow, transparent veil of smolder-
ing, scorching rulq. Suddenly to the
southeast the darkness gathered; the
formless gloom hovering above the
slow-moving line swept together In
one stupendous shadow which rushed
down upon them. Oolonel Destlnn gal-
loped furiously along the wavering,
stricken line of men.
“Gampes! campesl Each man for
himself!”
Then It was upon them. Th* sun
was blotted out The sand was every-
where. It came like a blast out of
hell's furnace and crept Into their eyes,
their mouths, their lungs, their very
hearts. It eddied round their feet,
mounting steadily to their knees, and
around them there shrieked the hui;ri
cane Itself, an awful army of articu-
late, destroying myriads.
In that first moment Farquhar reeled
forward, Instinctively fighting the gall-
ing storm with the fierce physical mad-
ness of a body goaded by Intolerable
torture, then be dropped quietly to his
knees and waited for the end. He
heard the scream of a horse In terror,
and a thud as of something falling
close beside him, but he remained In
different. Stubbornly, doggedly, he
awaited the final consummation of his
release.
Then something touched him. He
awoke with a curse of resentful agony.
A hand had groped through the dark-
ness. It gripped him, and he dragged
himself to his feet, lifting the heavy,
Invisible body with him. The sand
beat down upon them. He turned his
back to the storm. He stamped tha
shifting, whirling mass under his feet,
and with a woman’s generous tender-
ness sheltered the motionless unknown
man against his shoulders. No word
was spoken. Eternities of suffering,
In which each moment was the last,
bore down upon him. There was no
time In that hideous, revolving obscur-
ity—all the landmarks of Ilf* had been
■wept away, and he was pitted against
th* full force of death Itself. Hs
dropped baok. With an effort he gath-
ered th* unconscious man closer, keep-
ing his face uppermost. Then he lay
■till, wondsring If this ware death...,

RECRUIT SHOWING IS GOOD.
EDITORS ASKED TO HELP
RECRUIT FIRST REGI-
MENT OF GUARD.
To tho Editors of Oklahoma;
I have designated the week be
ginning April SO, as national guard
week, and am ealllwg upon you as
patriots to encourage through your
papera the young men of Oklahoma
to fill up the ranka of the First
regiment. Whatever assistance yoi*
can give will not only be appreci-
ated by me, but by every loyal cltl-
son of the state who wants to see
Oklahoma be among the first of tho
states to recruit Its national guard
up to war atrength.
There are now approximately
•00 men needed for the First regi-
ment. This Is the only strictly
state organisation authorised for
Oklahoma and the boya who Join
the army and want to anliat in a
unit that will retain Its Identity
throughout the war should Join the
First. To do so they will have to
go to Fort Bill, whore the reglipent
Is now encamped. Tho state will
pay the transportation of all appll-
cants to Fort BUI.
Pride In this organisation should
prompt tho young man of th* state
to eeo that It Is recruited to war
strength at one*. Thla week Is
Baby week In Oklahoma CUy and
while observing It the patriotism of
mothers should appeal to an In-
fant that needs attention badly—
tho First Oklahoma National Guard
regiment.
I hope every editor In tho state
will do hie boat In helping to re-
cruit the First regiment, Oklahoma
National Guard, to full war
atrength this week. Respectfully,
ANCEL BARP,
Adjutant General of Oklahoma.

Oklahoma City.—The Oklahoma
City army recruiting district ranked
