CHAPTER IV.
An hour after sunset Meryon, mount
ed on a thoroughbred Arab and fol
lowed by two camels bearing hla lug
gage, passed out of the gate of the city
and set his course towards the west. A
good many things hud happened since
we saw him lust.
Kbal, on hearing the result of the In
terview, had declared that It meant
mischief, and begged to be taken ulong
to share his master's fate. Meryon had
a half-formed scheme to proiit by the
confusion .In the harem caused by the
disgrace of Hutipha, to carry off the
princess; but the only way to effect It
was to have her Join him that night be
yond the boundary of the principality,
which was not more than twenty miles
distant. 15y the connivance of Senuah
and the help of Ebal, this might be ac
complished; and the latter eagerly
agreed to attempt It. There had not
been much time to arrange the details
of the plot, but u trysting place was
llxed upon a tall, isolated rock near
the caravan road, In the enemy's coun
try. Here Meryon was to wait six
hours; It Kbal and the princess did not
appear within that time, he was to pre
sume that the plan had miscarried, and
keep on nlone.
Meanwhile it transpired that Huti
pha had escaped; when the prince's
guards went to get him. he had van
ished. It was not surprising: the war
scare threw everything Into a liubbuii.
Had the American not been rendered
so conspicuous by his mission, he might
easily have spirited away the princess
himself. Lato In the afternoon a re
pott that the princess" mother had been
taken violently 111 added lo the contu
sion. 'When Meryon went to the prince
for his farewell Interview, he was half
minded to proclaim ami put himself at
the head of a revolution, depose his
highness, and assume his throne. The
odds were in favor of such a move be
ing successful. Meryon dually resolved
ntr..lut It fV.. ..lll,t.lMCJ til 1 II ll'ft
with a kingdom on his hands so far
from New York, and with the home
pnlicy jstill so strong against annexa
lims.lle afterward was sorry he had
been so fastidious.
He found the prince entirely alone
divested for the moment even of his
Nubians. He produced a writing done
In minute characters on very thin
ti.-ssue, setting forth that the bearer
was the trusted friend of the under
signed, and going on to describe the
situation and demand help. When
iVleryon had finished reading this his
highness drew from the folds of his
robe a small gold box richly orna
mented, and opened it. There lay a
huge ruby, about two Inches in length,
and shaped like a much elongated egg.
Meryon could not repress an exclam
ation of surprise: such a stone was
rover before seen; it could not be bought
fur a room full of rupees. .
The prince twisted it between his
fingers, and it came apart; it had been
cut In two and hollowed out, and the
parts made to screw together. The
letter was now rolled up and Inserted
Into this precious box; so there was a
vast fortune and a message of life and
death all done up in a parcel the size of
a man's little fiinger. The prince
handed it to Meryon.
"Do you expect me to take the re
snonslbility of lugging a bomb-shell
like that about the country?" demanded
the latter recoiling.
"Death Is powerless against him who
carries It," replied the other. "It Is a
talisman, the greatest treasure of my
dynasty; till now no unbeliever has
ever seen it; Judge then of the confi
dence I repose In you! When you arrive
here with the army of my ally and give
me back the hollow ruby. I will In re
turn give you my othr greatest treas
ure my daughter, the princess Terah
to be the bride of your heart and the
queen, of your harem."
"This old pouter-pigeon," said Mer
yon to himself, "has been smart enough
to see that by putting me upon honor
lie can get the best of me. He has me
on toast. I must countermand the
orders for the elopement, and play
straight ball! Those orientals are too
much for us after all. Kismet! Hand
It over, then," he added aloud, as If the
precious object were a chocolate cara
mel. "How will you carry it?" asked his
highness.
"In my waistcoat pocket, of course,"
replied the American, nonchalantly
Stufling It Into that receptacle.
"Perhaps it Is as well so," said his
highness, thoughtfully. "If danger
threatens you can readily swallow it."
he added. "Remember, Meryon Pacha,
it Is worth the ransom of a kingdom."
"What? this thing!" exclaimed Mer
yon, slapping his pocket with a con
temptuous smile. "ISless you, the boys
where I come from use things like this
for sinkers when they; go fishing!
t!ood-by!"
On returning to his apartments he
pent for Kbal .to tell him of his changed
purposes. The boy was not to be
found. The hour for starting came,
find still no Kbal. After waiting till
the last possible moment he was forced

to set out wltih this Importnnt detail
left at loose ends. He was 111 at case
and rather cross. He cared more for
Kbal than for anyone In the country ex
cept Terahi and feared lest some mis
hap had overtaken him.
The party consisted of two camels
with their drivers one of whom was

miles to the border was traversed with
out incident. As they crossed the line
the moon rose. In its third uuarter,
throwing their long black shadows be
fore them on the sandy plain. Its
light also dimly revealed the apex of
the great rock appointed as the tryst
Ing place, and wlwre It was still
Meryon's Intention to camp for the
night.
Meanwhile, he anticipated being
stopped by the officers of customs, for
his passoprt, which was in readiness;
but none appeared, and they kept on.
An hours further travel brought them
to the great rock. The picturesqueness
of the scene pleused Meryon's artist
eye.
The rock was of a roughly conical
shape, about a hundred feet high. It
stood in -the midst of a barren plain;
but around it, their roots nourished by
the waters of a spring which bubbled
from the ground and tilled a wide
stone basin, was a grove of tall palms
and great hemispherical mangos. All
was silent and deserted in the silent
moonlight. In the base of the rock
was a narrow opening leading to a
small cave or cell, formerly, according
to tradition, occupied by u saint and
hermit of supernatural powers. Meryon
looked Into it. and saw a space about
eight feet in diameter, hewn out of the
solid rock. By heaping a few loose
bowlders at the entrance it might be
made a dungeon more secure than a
chamber in a New Yolk safe-deposit
company's vault.
The unimals were watered and fed.
The camels squatted down in their
usual absurd fashion, with their legs
curled under them and their noses on a
parallel with the horizon. The drivers
curled up beside them and promptly
went to sleep. Meryon did not feel
sleepy. He wandered about, thinking
over what had happened, and speculat
ing as to might be to come.
It was like a mixture of the Arabian
Nights and a comic opera at the Casino
this predicament Into which his artis
tic and susceptible temperament and
devil-may-care habit had brought him.
No doubt his mother-wit and audacity
had that day saved his neck, but only
to put it in yet graver Jeopardy. Again,
supposing all to turn out well, what
sort of a figure would his oriental bride
cut in the drawing-rooms of the Four
Huidred, and at Newport, Lenox and
liar Harbor?
"She'll cut a swathe that's what
she'll do!" said he to himself, with a
chuckle. Hut the chuckle died away.
How about his being hanged for a spy?
Would Ebal succeed In bringing her
tonight? The lover hoped ardently
that he would; then the man of the
world took a hand, and hoped he would
not. The adventure was as near being
desperate as it could be, already; with
her to take care of, it would lap over
about ninety per cent, on the wrong
side. No; the princess was safest In
her oV-n harem for the present.
The moon mounted to the apex of the
dome of heaven. In another hour or
two dawn would begin. It became
chills'. The stillness was broken only
by the low gurgling of the spring, a
sigh from the camels, or the sound of
the horse cropping the herbage. The
artist thought he would turn In for an
hour's nap. Hark!
A noise like a faint pulsation, far off.
It grew stronger, but he could not yet
fix Its direction. It came nearer. It
was approaching from the city. A
horse a single horse; Kbal, alone; he
had not brought Terah. "Confound
him!" muttered the lover. "A good
thing, too," retorted the name person.
The horseman, whoever ho was, now

ff?it i
came up rapidly; yet. In that strange
light, It was difficult to distinguish him.
At times he utterly vanished, like a
phantom; then he reappeared, shadow
like; but each time nearer. All at once,
as It were, up he rode In flesh and
blood. Yes, it was Kbal.
"Well, my boy, so you didn't get
her?" said Meryon, stepping up. Kbal
was evidently much exhausted; he
reeled In the saddle, and would have
tumbled off if Meryon had not caught
him. "Why, you poor little kid!" mut
tered he. compassionately.
Then he gave a sudden start, and
stared In the youth's face. Kbal's soot
black hair, his eyes and features; but
this supple young body which his arms
held was the body, not of a boy, but of
a girl! He almost dropped her In as
tonishment. "Terah! What, Terah? Well, by the
great horn spoon! Why, you cunning
little sweetness!" Here he kissed her.
"Tuckered out, eh? I should think she
might! And all sole alone! What be
came of Kbal?"
The princess was nearly at the end
of her tether, lleing nn oriental, she
did not faint; that art isjlttle under
stood In the east. Hut she 'rested in her
lover's arnie like a little sack of soft
peaches, and did not in the lenst resent
his demonstrations of affection.
"Light of my soul," she murmured,
"am 1 sufe? Oh, I am so thirsty and
hungry! Oh, such a ride! That hard
saddle I can hardly move my legs!
Are we alone? It's so strange being
without a veil! These pien's clothes
how 1 must look!"
-Meryon set her down on a pile of rugs
beside the spring. He got a bottle of
wine and some food, and made her as
comfortable as he could. "You look
like an angel," he said; "though not
like a male one, in spile of that rig.
You're feminine, my dear, Inside and
out. Luckily that Arab streak In you
Wherever you got it Kbal has It, too
keeps you from being as plump as most
of 'em; und that burnous doesn't .tell
much; still, the sex Is written all over
you and whoever takes you for a boy
Is an uss. Hut what about Kbal? what's
the matter that he didn't escort you?"
The princess, whom the wine was be
ginning to restore, luughed faintly, as
a schoolgirl over some bit of roguery.
"We exchanged dresses and places,
lord of my heart," said she. "Ah. 1
often wished, before 1 got here, that I
was safe back among the soft cushions
again. Hut now I am glud; und when
I have smoked some cigarettes and had
a good long sleep, I shall be all right."
"Tills is going to be the devil,"
thought Meryon, (referring to the situ
ation.) "Here she Is dressed like my
footboy and acting like the princess!
We ought to be off In an hour, and she's
booked herself for a nine-hours' nap.
Hannibal getting his army over the
Alps was nothing to my getting this
girl over fifty miles of Hat plain. 1 must
try fixing her a bed on camel back,
and letting the beast rock her to sleep.
And Kbal by the way, Terah," he said
aloud, "how Is It about Kbal? Do you
mean he has taken your place as
princess In the harem? Hut he'll be
found out, won't he? and what'll they
do with him then?"
"Where are the cigarettes?" de
manded the princess. "Kbal? Oh, the
prince will Impale him, I suppose. Or
perhaps, since he's so young, he will

only bastinado him and cut oft his
head. I don't know, but Kbal won't
mind; it was he that proposed the ex
change; and he's only a slave you know.
Where am I to sleep?"
"You won't sleep, at present," re
turned the American, with sudden
sterness. "Listen to me! Do you
mean to say, seriously, that Kbal will be
killed for getting you off?"
She stared at him with eyes of lazy
winder, and laughed.
"Light of my soul, If he had deceived
you like that, would not you kill him?
Iiismillah! My father Is a man."
Meryon Jumped to his feet.
"I'll show you and your father the
sort of a man I am!" said he." That boy
is not going to be killed. We are going
back to prevent It. Kbal Impaled I
guess not. This elopement Is Indefi

They were surrounded by a score of
armed horsemen, among the foremost
of whom Meryon recognized the fat
figure and malignant grimace of his
enemy, Hntlpha, with a huge pistol In

COST OF MODERN LIVING.
A Serious Problem for the Majority of
families.
Prom Srrlbncr's Magazine.
' The most Interesting and serious
problem which confronts human socie
ty today Is the annihilation or lessening
of terrible existing Inequalities In es
tate and welfare. This problem, ab
sorbing as it Is, enn scarcely be solved
in our time. Hut, whatever the solu
tion, whether by Socialism, government
control, .or brotherly love, Is It not safe
to assume that when every one shares
alike, society Is not .going to be , satis
fied with humble, paltry or ugly 'condi
tions ns the universal weal? If the
new dispensation does not provide a
style and a manner of living at least
equal In comfort, luxury and rellne
ment to that which exists among the
well-to-do today, It will be a failure.
Humanity will never consent to be
shut oft from the best In order to be
exempt from the worst. The millen
nium must supply not merely bread
and butter, a house, u pig, a cow, and a
sewing machine for every one, but at
tractive homes, gardens and galleries,
literature and music,, and all the range
of aesthetic social adjuncts which tend
to promote healthy bodies, delightful
manners, line sensibilities and noble
purposes, or It will be no millennium.
Five thousand dollars In a country
town Is nflluence. If the benellclury is
content to stay there; but In a city the
family mini with only thut Income, pro
vided he is ambitious, can only Just
live, and might fairly be described as
tho cousin german to a mendicant.
And yet there are some worthy citizens
Still, who doubtless would be aghast
at these statements, and would wish to
know how one Is to spend $5,000 a year
without extravagunce.
There are so many things which qne
has to have nowadays In order to bo
comfortable that It seems almost Im-
provident to Inquire how much one
ought to save before facing the ques
tion of what one can possibly do with
out. Here the people who are said to
have too much for their own good have
an advantage over the rest of us. The
future of their children Is secure. If
they dread death It Is not because they
fear to leave their wives and children
unprovided for. Many of them go on
saving Just the same, and talk poor If
a rallroal lowers a dividend, or there is
not a ready market for their real estate
at an exalted profit. Are there more Ir
ritating men or women In the world
than the over-conservative persons of
large means who are perpetuully harp
ing on saving, and worrying lest they
may not be able to put by for a rainy
day, as they call It, 25 per cent, or
more of their annual Income? The
capitalist careworn by solicitude of this
sort Is the one fool In creation who Is
not entitled to some morsel of pity.

Several weeks ago, when the first

Philadelphia Times, 1 met here Count
Herbert lilsmarck, who was on his way
from England to Herlln. und thence to

DIPHTHERIA
Too many homes bear this fear-inspiring
placard, denoting the prevalence of
that most Insidious and dreaded of all
diseases Diphtheria.
It is to-day a recognized fact mnong the
best pructiliouurs that nine out of tcu
cases formerly considered hopeless may
bo brought to a happy termination by
the use of that great original raw food
product,

This great blood-generating, life-maintaining,
strength-developing, anil Hesli
produciug product of lean, raw incut,
contains the greatest amount of life
preserving qualities III the least pos
sible bulk of any preparation known.
In cuses of Diphtheria, JJoviuine has
special advantages. In this disease, as
lu others, tho rapidity with which it is
assimilated gives to it a preference over
all other foods, passing, us it does, into
the systeuj immediately, without cunning
tho digestive organs to perform any labor.
And considering the fact that the lesions
in the throat prevent the swallowing of
solid food, it beco s an absolute neces
sity. In the worst cases, where even
liquids cannot be taken by the uicutu,
lioviuine
Snves Life
by being used us an Injection. Above all,
Voviiilue is in itself a germicide, and in
all such diseases ns Diphtheria, caused by
microbes, it not only performs its greatest
mission of maintaining life, but antidotes
the existing bacilli.
