It la said, would nil sexeral volumes with Interesting and rnlr-ralslng cxplo ts. . Although young he Is accredited with many Hccompllshments. Not long ago ho startled missionaries already In Arabia by learning Arabic sooner than any of them thought possible. Then he had to get a Turkish diploma and tho examination ts held In French. Since the diploma was Imperathe tho oung doc tor decided to spend n month In Paris to ouch up his book French Tho trip across the northern Arabian desert was made In ecord time on n camel's back, and Doctor 'nrrlson then pent the four weeks In the rench capital talking with ccrybody. In ludlng janitors' children and some of the est known surgeoni In the French hos- ltals. Ho returned and soon was given a llploma. Doctor Harrison went to Arabia for tho rablan Mission, which pays him S700 a ear, and of that sum much li spent for nedlclne and Instruments for the Arabs, Furthermore, the young missionary has Introduced American methods and styles In Arabia. The Arabians aro nccustomed to weird tales and It takes Romothlng to shako from them their usual mask of com posure. Doctor Harrison did It. however. He conducts n dispensary nt Kuweit, and operates on everything from sheiks to don keys. One day nn Arab brought him his son, who w-as suffering from water on the brain. When the doctor saw tho child he asked why he had not been brought to him before. "Something might hae been done to save him. but now he Is dying." ho said. "Can't you do an) thing for him," the father asked. Doctor Harrison then suggested that transplanting of a vein Into the child's neck might save his life, and suggested that the father give a voln from his arm or leg to act as a drain. "What, you you want to cut me I" tho father exclaimed. "No, let him die first." Undaunted, Harrison cut a vein from his own left arm, under local anaesthesia. It was six Inches long, and although ho trans planted It Into the boy's neck, tho child died. Tho tale of the young doctor's heroism soon spread among the Arabs, and many would come to look at the red scar on his arm with amazement. Doctor Harrison says the Arabs aro un willing to help each other and for that reason need his help. Ho 1b a poor man, howover, like many other sons of minis ters. He worked hard to get his training nt the university, at Johns Hopkins, end at tho Massachusetts General Hospital In Boston. Within a few weeks ho will bo traveling back .to Arabia.

"Yes. and you've got money, too. I'll bet It's the Ranger. So, you'vo been having your fling while I was away.

Jose's, part. No I The horse breaker flattered him self that he had made a very good spy In deed' that he had been Longorlo's eyes and ears' so far as circumstances permitted. Nor did he feel that he had been lax In mak ing his reports, for through Rosa he had written the general several lengthy letters, and Juat for good measure these two had conjured up sundry Imaginary happen'ngs to prove beyond doubt that Senora Austin was miserably unhappy with her husband and ready to welcome such a dashing lover as Longorio. Therefore, Joso could not for the life of him Imagine wherein he had been remiss. Nevertheless, he was uneasy, and he hoped that nothlng'had occurred to anger his general, IJut Longorio, when he arrived at the meeting place, was not In a bad humor. Having sent Rosa an ay on some errand, he turned to Jose with a flashing smile, and "Well, my good friend, the time has come," How Jose had no faintest Idea what tha general was talking about, but to be called the fr-end of.so Illustrious a person was flat tering " nodded decisively, "Yes, beyond doubt," he agreed. "Mexico Is in a bad way. These rebels are growing by the thousands; they overrun the country like ants. You read the papers, 'Sometimes; when there are enough pic tures." said Jose. "Ha, then I doubt If you know what Is happening. Well, I'll have to tell you.

"Understand, I make you my confidant because I think a great deal of j-ou, Jose." The general laid an affectionate hand upon Joso s shoulder. "The first time I saw you I said: There's a boy after my own heart. I shall learn to love that Jose, and I shall put him In tho way of his fortune.' Well, I havo not changed my mind, and the time has come. You aro going to help me and I am going to help you." Jose Sanchez thrilled with elation from head to foot This promised to be the great est day of his life, and he felt that he must be dreaming, "You haven't tired of Rosa, eh7 You still wish to marry her?" Longorio was In quiring. "Yes. But of course, I'm a poor man." "Just so. I shall attend to that. Now wo come to the object of my visit, Jose, I propose to make you rich enough in one day so that you can marry." "But first, wait!" exclaimed tha horse breaker. "I bring you something of value, too." Desiring to render favor for favor, and to show that he was fully deserving of the General's generosity, Jose removed from Inside the sweatband of his hat a. sealed, stamped letter, which he handed to his employer. "Yesterday I carried tho mall to town, but as I rodo away from Las Palmas the senora handed me this, with a silver dollar for myself. Look t It Is writ ten to the man we both hate." Longorio took the letter, read the in scription, and then opened the envelope. Jose looked on with pleasure while he spelled out the contents. When the General had finished readlnr. hs exclaimed: "Hoi A miracle! Now I know all that I wish to know," "Then I did well to steal that letter, eh?" "Diablo I Yea I That brute of a husband makes my angel's life unbearable, and she flees to be rid of him. Good) It fits In with my plans. She will be surprised to see me there. Then, when the war comes and all Is chaos then what? I'll warrant I can make her forget certain things and certain people." Ixmgorlo nodded with sat isfaction. "You did very well, Jose." The latter leaned forward, his eyes bright. 'That lady Is rich. A fna prize, truly. She would bring a huge ransom." This remark brought a smile to Longo rlo's face. "My dear friend, you do not In the least understand," he said. "Ransom! What an Ideal" He lost himself In medi tation, then, rousing, spoke briskly: "Lis ten! In two, three days, your senora will louve Las Palmas, When she Is gone you will perform your work, like the brave man I know you to be. You will relieve her of her husband." Jose hesitated, and the smile vanished from his face. "Senor Ed Is not a bad man. Ilo likes me; he" Longorlo's gaze al tered and Jose fell silent, "Come, you are not losing heart, eh? Have I not promised to make you a rich man? Well, the time has arrived." Seeing tha Jose still manifested no eagerness, the dtneral went on In a' different tone: "Do not think that you can withdraw from our little arrangement. Oh, no I Do you re member a promise I made to you when you came to me- in Romero? I said that if you played me false I would bury you to the neck In an ant hill and fill your mouth with honey, I keep my promises." Jose's struggle was brief; he promptly resigned himself to the Inevitable. With eery evidence of sincerity he assured Lon gorio of his loyalty and denied the least Intention of betraying his generals con fidence. What after all, was his m salon upon earth if not to serve Longorlo's in terests? One might have a peaceful heart and still be a man. Jose was every Inch a man: he was a very devil when he let himself go, and his- Excellency need have no fears as to the outcome oi tneir plan. After all, the Qrlngoes were enemies, and there, was no one of them who did not merit destruction. Pleased with these sentiments and feel ing sufficiently; assured that Joso was now really in the proper frame of mind to suit his purpose, Longorio took the winding trail back toward Sangre de Crlsto, qunlntance. Hut it was not until she had threatened to secure another attorney that ho reluctantly gavo tn, even then making It plain that In meeting her wishes he was acting against hts best Judgment. Now Alalre had desired Ellsworth's ad vice also as to her own Immediate plans, slnco It was of course Impossible for her longer to slmre Ed's roof. She had written to Dave Law. telling him that she Intended to go to La Ferla, there to remain pending the hearing of her suit; but later she had come to doubt tho v ladom of such n course. Inasmuch as tho war talk grow louder with every day. However, her attorney's inex plicable change of front and his stubborn opposition to her wishes prevented her from confiding in him any moro than was nec essary, and she returned to Las Palmas determined to use her own best Judgment Tb be sure, she would have preferred some placo of refuge other than La Ferla, but she reasoned that there she would at least bo undisturbed, and that Ed, even If he wished to effect a reconciliation, would not dare to follow her, slnco he was persona non grata In Federal Mexico. Nor were her doubts of Ellsworth's loyalty en tirely allayed. All In all. therefore. It seemed to her that the Mexican ranch offered her tho safest asylum. She had counted upon seeing Dave during her stay In Brownsville, and her failure to do so was n grave disappointment The nens of hts resignation from the force had at first perplexed her ; then she had thrilled at tho thought that his action must have something to do with her; that doubtless he, too, was busied In making plans for their new life. Sho told herself that It was brave of htm to obey her Injunctions so literally and to leave her unembarrassed by his presence nt this particular time. It In spired her to be equally brave and to wait patiently for tho day when Bhe could wel come him with' clean hands and a soul un ashamed. In the midst of Alatre's uncertainty of mind It gratified her to realize that Dave alone would know of her whereabouts. She wondered If he would come to eee her. He was a reckless, headstrong lover, and his desires wero all too likely to overcome his deliberate resolves. Sho rather hoped that In spite of his promise he would venture to cross tho border so that she could see and be near him. If only fpr a day or for on hour. The possibility frightened and yet pleased her. The conventional woman within her frowned, but her outlaw heart beat fast at the thought Alalre did not explain her plan even to Dolores, but when her preparations were complete she took the Mexican woman with her, and during Ed's absence slipped away from the ranch. Boarding the train at Jonesvllle, she was In Pueblo that night If Alatre's claBh with Ellsworth had been trying to her. It had been no less painful to the lawyer himself. Feeling himself bound by his promise to Dave, he had not dared to tell her the truth; consequently he had boen hard put to It to dissuade her from taking Immediate action. When she would not listen, ho found himself In the most unpleasant position of his life; for although he could not but sympathize with her desire to be free from Ed Austin. It distressed him beyond measure to see her riding blindly to a fall. More than once after their strained parting he was tempt ed to go to Las Palmas and Bet himself right In her eyes; but he managed to hold to his determination and to school himself to await Dave's return. Before long, however, Ellsworth found other worries engaging him, for it seemed at last that war with Mexico was Imminent After months of uncertainty the question had come to Issue, and that lowering cloud which had hung above the horizon took ominous shape and size. Ellsworth awoke one morning -to learn that an ultimatum had gone forth to President Potost; that (he Atlantic fleet had been ordered south; and-that marines were being rushed aboard transports ponding a general army mobili zation. It looked as It the United States had finally risen In wrath, and as If noth ing less than a miracle could now avert the long-expected conflict Naturally BrownsUlle, like other border towns, was plunged Into a panic, and Ells worth, as a leading citizen of his com munity, had his hands full. In the midst of the excitement, and while suspense was at Its highest Dave Law returned, Ellsworth found him In his office one morning and fell upon the young man eagerly. Two weeks had worked a shocking change In Dave; he was gaunt 11; his eyes were bright and tired and feverish. They had a new expression, too, which the Judge at first could not fathom, but which he took to be fear, Dave's brown cheeks had bleached; his hands hung loose and unmanageable at his sides.
