In n minute Hathwtiy and Joyce
were alone. Tlie girl shuddered as the
rahdle lli'ht revealed the man’s face
to her. She had seen It so many times
In fearful dreams, and all the way up
through the runs’e. When she had
married Pathway she had hoped
against hope that something would
intervene to save her; but now the
Mow had fallen. And she stood <|tilte
stilj, her hands crossed on her breast,
waiting for what was to come.
Then Pathway seized her in his
arms. He kissed her ice-co.ld Ups,
cheeks, eyes, and throat. Ills hands
went pHwInjj over her. And jjs she
still stood unreslstant and unrespon
sive, his passion grew the Mercer, and
mingled vviUi fury at the realization
that this girl, so submissive in his
arms, was his in body alone.
He released her and, in tils rage,
began to growl out jeers and curses.
“A different honeymoon from what
you were expecting, Joyee girl,!.’%he
cried. "\o, no, the same honeymoon,
hut a different husband. A better one,
eh, my girlV Well, can t you speak?
Which of your two men do ,you |ire-
fer?”
Put Joyce made no reply.
“You’ve answered me, you drab!”
Pathway shouted. “So you’ve been
living with him on the trail these two
weeks past ! Py heav en, 1 was a fool
to take you hack from him without
killing liim ! You thought I’d swallow
that lie about your haVjng forgotten
you were a married wonian, did you?
I>ld you ever hear of a wjiumin forget
ting that she was marrieit?”
Joyce only watched him with a
fixed gaze that made him uneasy.
"You won’t pretend to me that your
relations with him were innocent, 1
suppose?'’..
Still Joyce said nothing, and Path
way grasped her by the wrists.
"Answer me! Were they?"
"Yes, they were innocent." The
words issued mechanically from' her
lips. He ghired at her, incredulous,
wanting to he convinced, unable to he.

He was liuurse with passion. Put as

she drew fivvu*> suddenly, slopped—
and then he saw that she had a hunt

"Listen to me now, Jallies Path-

lie was pressing toward her, hut she
held the dagger pointed at him. and
lie stopped, afraid of the look in her
-eyes. ' ■ ■ <■ '
"Joyce, don't be foolish. Put that
twice. The first .time you forced, me
into a marriage with you by the threat
that unless 1 consented you would be
tray my father to the police. I married
you, and still you betrayed him.’’
“I did not. Somwne else must have
done so. Why should I have be
trayed him? He was my friend."
"Yon. \Vere the only man who knew
his 'secret. Then the second time,
knowing that I would never live with
yon, yon sent me a lying message to
lure me up here, saying that you held,
my father In your power. You knew
that polling else on earth would bring
me up to you. And it was a lie, be-
eniise my father has bee'n dead for
months past.”
Pathway’s face blanched. ‘T don't
believe that story. How do you kpovv?’’
"He tiled in his mine. His body lies
at the^hottom of If, where he was
stricken. If you-did not know that
the was dead, at least you were lying
When you said la* was in your powv*r.”
“He lies at the bottom the bottom
of the mine?" Pathway stammered.
“I—I didn't kuJvv.’’ lie seemed to

"Anu re going to make that Inver of
yours tell you the secret 'of the mine.'
You’ll do It when you’ve learned to
love me. And, by heaven, I’m going
to make you!”
She screamed and beat furiously at
his face, impotent in his grasp. They
wrestled to and fro. So violent was
tiie girl's resistance that for a moment
or two she held. Pathway at, Pay, beat
ing her fists in his face again and
again, and drawing blood from his
nose and lips.
The fury of iter resistance only
made her the more desirable in his
eyes. He held her fast now, her
arms forced to her sides again, his
bloodshot eyes leering into hers, his
black heard sweeping her cheek.
In the room they had taken at the
rear of the house the three men, who
were drinking and playing cilrds, hear-
1 ing the girl’s screams'and the sounds
’of tlie struggle, hurst into mirth, and
came tipuvelng along the passage.
Joyce, making one- final, -desperate
effort, hroke-'~onoe more out of Path
way’s arms, burst through’ the. do<»r,
and ran screaming along the passage.
She £of the front door open.
"Lee! Lee! Come,to me!" she cried
in wild abandonment.
Then Pathway's,amis closed about

I. Saul Preached Christ in
cCs (vv. T9-22).
1. Saul’s I'ellow ship Witii the Dis
ci] les (v. 19).
After Saul w’as baptized lie remained
certain days with the Relievers in 1 »a-
maMiis (v.. 19). How laautiful to think
of the transformation which took
plnoe—the one who was so passionate^
ly bent on tlieir destruction was now
enjoying' fellow ship with the disciples,
'2. St taigiitway Preaching in tlie
Synagogues (v; 20).
Saul, like every one who is really
converted, begins to tell of tlie newly
found Savior. As soon as he is saved
j lie goes to save others. His message
i concerned tin* deity of CIlrAt. His
doctrinal belief is summed up in six
words, "He is the Son of (Jed."
3. The People Amazed (v. 21).
They knew - that the very one who
ijad been the ringleader i,n persecuting
the Christians tn Jerusalem, and hud
cm.ip to Damascus for the express pur
pose of bringing them bound to tlie
chief priests, was now passionately ad
vocating that which tie had '■o vehe
mently sought to destroy. When a
man is saved there ought to he sin h a
change iis to cause the people to notice
it.
4. Tin^ Jews Confmindm] (v. 2!?).
Saul iVtired into Arabia for three
years. During this time ho w as taught
the full truths of his ministry (Hal.
1:17 ]s). Saul increased* in spiritual
strength and eonJut^nded the Jews,
-.proving that Jesus was not only the
Son of (iod, but their Messiah.
, II. Saul Escapes From the Jevws (vv.
23-25). *
He used the Scrijituns w;i!)i such
skill that the Jews-oo+ihl not answ er
him. ^Finding tiiat the iirguTnent was
against them, tlie Jews took counsel
iiovy they might destroy Saul. So in
tent were j hey iqio/i killing liim that
they wateh'ed tin* gates of the city <iay

Tlie believers at Jerusalem had not

They knew nothing of ids sojourn in
Arabia, and ids "preaching at Damas

regarded him as a spy. “Part of tha
penalty of wrongdoing is tlie difficulty
of restoration in tlie good opinion of
honorable men.”

Barnabas was a man filled with tlie

3. Saul in Fellowship-WiMLthe .Dis
ciples (y. .’4s).
He was not content merely to visit
with the brethren. He s-pnke boldly in
tiie name of tiie Lord Jesus Christ.
IV. Saul Sent to Tarsus (v. 30).
A conspiracy similar to,that one at
-T\
Damascus was formed against Saul.
When the brethren knew pf it they
sent him to Tarsiis. Said’s life was
la danger everywhere except among
the Gentiles. He now is hack to the
place of ids birth. The firat and la st
place for one's testimony is in ids

of tlie conversion of the Jewish nation.
Their eyes will he opened by a per

them, and when they accept Him as
their Savior and Messiah, they will go
forth as witnesses to tiie Cell tiles.
