It was now toward evening and the
great heut of the day was broken. At
a white-walled villa on one of the
broad avenues he glided through a
Moorish doorway into the passage. Be-
fore hltn lay the courtyard where two
women talked, their low voices min-
gling musically. At last be came out
Into the light. HU manner was In-
imitable In Its suggested homage aud
a hundred unspoken flatteries.
"Madame, it’s Abou-Yakoud who
ventures before you," he said In his
soft Arab French. “Abou-Yakoud,
who has st*en Mecca ami who reads
Destiny as an open book. Give me
your hand, madame. For a little franc,
I will tell you good and evil—what
was and what is to come."
Sylvia Arnaud started slightly and
turned.
"You shall not come in here," she
snid Impatiently, aud yet not without a
childish touch of hesitation. "Beg-
ging is forbidden. Now be gone!”
She tossed a handful of money on to

Colonel Destlnn sat bis horse with
grace and ease, and the slight erect
figure carried the years lightly. How
many the years were no one knew.
Thus he rode slowly through tha
pleasant shaded avenues, skirting the
nigger quarter, till he reached the
plateau. There he drew rein, bis keen
eyes sweeping the low girdle of olive
trees and clustering native hovels to
1he far side, where the mosque rose up
In stately purity against the turquoise
sky. Through the graceful archway a
double line of Arabs drifted backward
and forward In a soft flowing, un-
broken stream of worship, and sudden-
ly Colonel Destlnn set spurs and gal-
loped over the bard clay, scattering the
stragglers to right and left
“Madame Arnaud!”
She turned with a little start of sur-
prise. and freeing herself from the
cumbersome red slippers which en-
cased her Infldel feet she came to
meet him, her band outstretched In
gracious welcome.

“It’s the new sentimental ballad en-

“As a rule 1 am not In favor of

this I think It ought to be done."
"I tried to kill him,” be said quietly
| but distinctly, “and I mean to kill him.
That Is the only change.”
"la that any change? Hns It taught
your fair, pure young wlftf to love and
honor you?" lie ground his teeth to-
gether without answering, and she
went on, her voice grown suddenly
harsh and contemptuous. "You are a
fool, Desire. You are a fool, like all
men. Whut Is there lu this one wom-
an that you should care? She is pretty,
hut others are prettier. I have seen
her, for It amused me to have a glance
at the wonder who could drive two
men to the devil. Aud what is site? A
charming doll with a child's eyes and
a sparrow's brain. What elw—"
What the Small Man Dreamt.
A member of (lie company seated In
n train the other day had been relat-
ing sonic wonderful stories of dreams
fulfilled. Suddenly lie turned on the
diminutive passenger who hud smiled
ai one of Ids yarns. “You appear to
doubt my word, sir!" he remarked.
“Perhaps you imagine that dreams
have no value?"
"Mine hadn't!" murmured the little
iiiii ii.
“IndeedI And what did you dream?"
"That a big black dog sprung out
of the passage and took about luilA a
pound out of the calf of my leg!
Strange to say," he continued, "the dog
that actually did bite me was the dog
of my dream!"
“There you arc, then!" ejaculated
llie other man. "If you'll valued the
dream ni its proper worth you'd have
been on the lookout for that dog. and
miRlit have escaped. And yet you say
Unit dreams have no value!"
"And 1 repeat, sir. that mine hadn't,
for, unfortunately, I met the dog before
I had the dream!"
Steady
Those Nerves!
The girl rose. She look one of the
long-stemmed pipes from the table and
lighted It at the brazier. The red em-
bers glowed up on to her face, where
was written a somber Inscrutable bit-
terness. She came back and placed
the pipe In his Inert hand.
"There!" she said simply. "That Is
what you have come for. Forgetful-
ness."
He nodded. Silently he cowered back
among the ragged cushlous and with
half closed eyes began to smoke. In
the hovel there was perfect silence. As
the minutes passed the subtle magic

and fancies came out from among
their shadows and moved lightly to
and fro in the brightening circle of
tirellght. Arnaud smiled wistfully at
them. l.ttUe by little the terrible lines
of pain drawn about his features
passed, leaving them a white peace.
A sigh broke from bis loosely parted
Ups.
"Sylvia—Sylvia—my wife—"
His head dropped back—the strange-
stemmed pipe slipped from bis power-
less Augers and fell with a soft thud
to the floor. The woman bent over him
and kissed him. A single tear, drawn
from a well of savage pity, bud
dropped on the untroubled brow.
"God of our fathers," she whispered
from between eleuebed teeth, "Thou
knowest I am bail—rotten to the heart
< —but thou knowest also I am not so
bad at the woman who gent this man
to me."
She knelt down, and with her dark
head against the sleeper's knee
watched and waited.
All was quiet. But on the other
tide of Hie curtain au Arab crouching
beside the bra Her awoke. There vu
which still echoed after her as she
passed into the shadows of the gate-
day.
Abou-Yakoud bent and gathered the
nickel pieces from the ground. When
be looked up again he stood straight
aud erect, and the beard had vanished.
"Gabrielle!" he said softly.
She turned a little. The warm gold
of evening was on her face and soft-
ened the stern lines to a mild and
noble serenity.
"I know," she said. "Your voice
betrayed you. And then—sooner or
later I felt Hint you would come,
though for what purpose God knows."
"Let us hope he does not.” he an-
swered sardonically. "I am here on
my own business, and my own busi-
ness has no sanctity about It. I must
keep control If 1 ajp to win through to
the things T want."
"The things you want!" she echoed
with deep sadness. "What are they
now, Stephen?"
He knelt on the marble edge of the
fountain and caught her hand.
"Gabrielle!" he repeated hoarsely.
"Gabrielle!”
She looked down at him. Her free
hand she laid quietly upon his.
"You are cruel to yourself," she said.
“Why have you come, Stephen?"
"God knows. I have lied so much In
all these ghastly .veal’s, Gabrielle. I
have lied most of all to my own con-
science. I have called yon an episode
—a folly. I have heaped contempt on
you, on my memory of you, and al-
ways you have risen as now—the one
pure thing that I have loved, my one
virtue, my own fidelity—”
"Hush, Stephen, we have buried our
dead."
"You have—I cannot. I tried. At
first It was remorse that would not let
me—the knowledge that I have ruined
you—dishonored you—"
"That Is not true,” she interrupted
proudly. "No woman—no man—has
ever been dishonored by one action.
Honor is not a possession to be lost or
broken. It is ourselves—what we are.
If you had dishonored me I should be
different; but I am not different,
have grown stronger—that la all.
see clearer. I am happy.”
"Happy? And your name—your po-
sition—your people—all lost!”
She smiled faintly.
I "Those griefs are old and healed,
Stephen. I have a name and a posi-
tion. They are my own, and I am a
j little proud of them. I owe you my
knowledge of myself and my own
strength—some hours' Illusion, a broad-
er outlook, a deeper understanding of
other women's failures. Let that suf-
fice between us—”
"I cannot." He sprang up with a
wild gesture of protest. "It is not re-
morse that haunts me. I am not the
man to feel remorse. 1 half loved and
half despised you. Then—that night
when 1 came back anil, found that you
knew me for what I was—a liar, a
cheat, a common spy, to be bought and
sold by every mnn—and had left me
on the very eve of my atonement to
you—then I knew my own madness.
From that hour I wanted you.”
"It's too late. Stephen." she said,
'loo late. 1 have burled my dead,
dear. I cannot call the dead to life.
We are free and we stand alone. We
must go our wayq, Stephen."
"I won't plead, Gabrielle, I know
you better." Then suddenly he turned
and stumbled blindly Into the dark-
ness of the passageway.

CHAPTER XI.
Behind the Mosque.
Colonel Destlnn rode through Sldl
bel-Abbes, and many of those he
passed looked after him. One or two
of bis observers were soldiers wearing
a ml and blue uniform of the Legion.
Tliey saluted first and grimaced only
after a cautious Interval.

necessary to play comedy,” he an-
swered with brutal directness. “You
had my note?"
"Yes—" She crimsoned and faltered,
and he swung himself to The ground,
looping the bridle over bla wrist.
"We must get away from the crowd,”
he said In the same curt, Imperative
tone. "It la fairly quiet behind the
mosque. Take my arm. The rough
ground is excuse enough.”
“If anyone saw us they would
think—”
"Nothing that Is not true, madame."
She hesitated, half resentful, halt
afraid.
“I am beginning to ask myself what
Is the truth, colonel.”
"That Is what I have come to tell
you.”
They walked on. Overhead, from tha
high towers of the mosque, an Arab
chant drifted down to them through
the quiet air—
"I extol the greatness of the Lord,
of God the most high—"
They were qu^te alone now. On
their right the white walls sheltered
them; to the left the open sunscorched
plateau. Colonel Destlnn stood still
and faced bis companion.
“Well," be said, "have you nothing
to say to me?"
“I?” She lifted her lustrous brown
eyes to his in simple inquiry. “What
ahould 1 have to say?”
"Y’our husband la safe.”
"Ob, Desire! Yea, I had forgotten
about It almost. It was an accident
He thought I was about to be attacked.
He Is so nervous and excitable, and
the night was dark. He explained It
all—”
"Yes, Captain Arnaud explained
everything.” There was a block of
atone beside him and be set bis foot
upon It, leaning forward so that their
faces were on a level. "Madame Ar-
naud! Do you really think I believe
you or in you? My child, If your hue-
band bad acted aa you say, be would
have been cashiered for an Intoxicated
Incapable; but be gave me bla expla-
nation. It was an explanation which
men among themselves—some men—
understand and accept—madness on
account of a woman. 1 let your bus-
band go free. Do you thank me?" She
made no answer. The graceful knowl-
edge of her power was gone. Her eyes
hung on his with the blankness of a
will In abeyance. "You do not thank
me,” he went on deliberately. "You
would like to. You would like to play
the role of the faithfu! wronged wife.
But 1 am the one peraon before whom
you cannot act, either to youraelf or to
others. I have seen Through you, and
your little shallow soul knows It. All
artifice between us Is useless. l>o not
move—stay there!” He caught her
hands and held them In a grip of iron.
To carry on an effective warfare
against the German government,
which he characterized as a "nat-
ural foe to liberty," the president
recommended:
Utmost practical co-operation in
counsel and action with the gov-
ernments already at war with Ger-
many.
Extension of liberal financial
credits to those governments so
that the resources of America may
be added, so far as possible, to
theirs.
Organization and mobilization of
all the material resources of the
country.
Full equipment of the navy, par-
ticularly for means of dealing with
•ubmarine warfare.
An army of at leaet 500,000 men,
based on the principle of universal
liability to service and the author
ization of additional increments of
500,000 each as they are needed.
Raleing necessary money for the
United States government so far
ai possible without borrowing, and
on the bail* of equitable taxation.
All preparations, the preaident
urged, should be made in such way
ae not to check the flow of war
supplies to the nations already in
the field againat Germany.
