Chaptkh t.—Bennie StandMi, a pretty and vivacious girt of IS, in to !>•> married to Beverly Mason, a man of 50, who is her father's creditor Chapter 2.—Hale Everett, a New Englander, and Adrien Jjitour, of French descent, are West Point cadets, great friends and fine fellows. They both admire Bennie Standish and her chum, Edith Van d.-r Huysen, a some what cold but very brilliant socLty woman. Chapter 3 —A telegram announces (hat labour and Everett will visit the Standishes. They do not know tliat it is Bennie's wedding day. Report has it that Edith is to marry Lord Martindaie, an Englishman. Chapter 4.—Isitour and Everett arrive. Both are in love with Bennie and have made a compact that which ever meets he 1 -first shall ask her to marry him, but whiche er one suc- eeeds they will remain friends. C'HAPTKa 5.—Dale tells Bennie lie I p, your more poetic view, loves her and she tells him that site is , ••Then nil the grander that calm upon I the face whiehinsidt even cannot break!" I The exclamatiou had more the reso nance of a thought inborn than the I sound of casual criticism; and again La- tour saw the dark face turned from the tiie five of the Nile than she was with the dirtier ouu of the Thames. She had several times crossed its bend to visit Gizeh in the long, flat ferryboats pro- lielled by stroll-, yellow mans at the swee’w when wind failed thy great yel low lateen sails. She hud picnicked amid the ruins of old Memphis, and in a light caique laid inspected the gleaming mar bles of Rhoda island and its rugged Kilometer, that index finger of eldest hydrography. The English party had religiously clambered over the chin high base tiers of the Great Pyramid, climbing its two hundred and three steps before lunch lime; anti daring the passage to the “king’s chamber,” when fortified by bit ter beer to better resist its mingled stuf finess of potted Ramesesand living Arab guide. And here, ns in many other rambles, a valuable adjunct to the party '•'as the English physician, Mir Roger Arnyffe, a long resident in Cairo, whose skill had wou the confidence of the kite- dive beyond that of any native hakeem, and whom the foreign colony quite idol- issed. One whole morning was devoted to the Sphinx. Sir Roger hud given much valuable information about tiie grand colossus of Gizeh, hewn mostly from the solid spar rock, some hundred paces east ward of the second Pyramid. He had taken part in the excavations at tiie front to which the party had descended. Edith seemed deeply impressed with tlio giant proportions of the statue—looking i.paanl, as they stood between the fore paws of masonry which make its total length some hundred ami seventy-two feet, the great head rearing fifty-six feet over them. “How majestic sha looks!” she ex claimed with a half sigh. “So you insist on the female theory?" Sir Roger asked with a smile. “Certainly I do.” she answered ear nestly. “I am sure she is the embodi ment of the earliest legend of the name —of tiie wickedness of woman and lier punisluuent." “Oh, very well,” the old surgeon laughed back. “Then we'll dismiss the broken beard theory, or change it into the bow of her ladyship's nightcap. It is useless to argue witli one woman about her views of another—especially when one is thirsty." And lie moved off to where Lord Martindaie stood, with his back to them and the statue, deep in contemplation of the immediate present as represented by tl.o Bass ale and potted meats Harris was carefully transferring from a hamper to the slab that jierhaps held down the ashes of a long dead king. “And how calm the grand face is, though seamed by ages!" the woman ; added. “She looks as though her mem- ■ ories of the past cannot bo broken by the littlenesj of the present. And such a present!” The tone of the last words made La- ! tour's glance follow hers toward Lord Martindaie. Then it sought her eyes, to find in them a restless contempt, seen once or twice before, but always dis missed as figment of his own imagina tion. But as her eyes met his the light in them grew softer, and again she raised them to the towering heqd above them. '‘And those deep lines may mean either suffering or thought,” she added. “They probably mean age in part,” Latour answered, smiling. “But in larger part they mean that your adopted countrymen are only vandals, in plaid cutaways, who have despoiled her maj esty's countenance for souvenirs before excavation spared it. And in part, too, the tears are blows from lances of the Bedouins. The followers of the prophet, iu the pure simplicity of their faith, re vile those images and symbols of ma teriality which their cousins of Rome and Oxford and Hindoo-tan bow down before. They show their contempt by blows as well as words; though 1 grieve us men moved—tit random: •| never dreamed yon were senti mental!" *i never was sentimental.” site an swered slowly. “No; even when, oace in my life, i knew that I—loved!” Site raised iter eyes fall to his.

Turks and stolid faced Arabs, sinewy and Itare of limb. Here and there Jews in their oriental garb moved quietly among Syrians and native fellaheen; while stiffly uniform'd regulars of the khedive'a army strolled around with picturesque Amaonts, the white, full skirts beneath their braided jackets tightly bound by tiie stisb ever orna mented with the double rows of pistols. Nearer, around the principle cafe, the groups were European, yet varying in style and dress—Italian, Greek and French merchants’ families, dotted with occasional Americans, mostly of the nonveaux riches, and a goodly sprinkliag i of unmistakable English; and for the delectation of this group the garrison band performed at intervals the national airs of all nations. Over the whole scene babeled the hum ! of many voices, cut by the cries of the venders of refreshments, and by an occa sional laugh, invariably coming from tiie foreign groups. For your oriental is sedate and seldom yields to merriment of any sort, a smile being unusual and a laugh considered indecorous. Lady Martindaie had been silent longer than her wont. Suddenly she looked up nt Latour and said: “Does not this carry you home?" “Scarcely,” he replied, with a laugh. “Were I asked to name the spot I had seen most un-American I should say the Ezbekieh." “Not American, jierhaps,’ Edith an swered, "but Creolo.

Sphinx toward the men about tiie lunch. “This Sphinx has always been to me the most interesting of all the monu ments,” lie said, turning again. “ Wheth- | er king, or queen, or god, the diverse theories leave me understanding her ori gin and purpose less than any of them. She jiuzzles me, even as she seems to have puzzled the ancients." “Naturally. She is stone,” Edith answered, of flesh has been the riddle of the ages!" “Perhaps," ho answered. "Ami this statue is typical. The tablets in her breast may symbolize those illegible things every woman hides in her own bosom" “And which are not comprehended even when shown to man,” she broke in quickly. “Yet, as shown in the statue here, those very mysteries may form her holiest chapel, in which her better self does sacrifice higher than was ever burned upon that altar in the lion's jiawa." “Then yon would imply,” the man re joined quickly, “that the popular early myth of the Sphinx must have been woven by some woman; that the death of him who guessed not her riddles was just punishment for his lack of comjire- hending that incomprehensible thing—a woman's heart.” His eyes were glowing upon her face; hers were far away beyond the desert sands. But the features softened, as did the low, rich voice that said—he knew not whether to herself or him: And yet CEdipus came at last to her. ‘And he suspects?" His voice was eager, and he leaned toward her " ith his old Creole imjietuesity. ‘No. he does not suspect,” she an swered rather wearily. “Lie knows. 1 told him in (’.il ls, six weeks ago, that a quiet separation and a residence abroad might he pleasanter to us both.” •And he refused! No man could give you up without more reason!” Latour said "iih ; il suppressed vehemence. “Yea. lie loves me, a’ill lie knows he will have no more reason.

She turned away her face, tiie same expression on it as when, ten years be fore, slit: sat "ith him by the Hudson, waiting for the words that never came. Ihe lines of that face were firmer now, a set determination about the Ups. Suddenly the eyes, darkened near to blackness, glowed witli a passionate yearning in them. In the deep shadow between them his hand rested lightly, tremulously upon hers. “You know my past,” she said low and sadly, not moving her ‘ace; “a motherless girl, foster reared flj'fooiety, with an old name and a false position to supjiort. What was 1 but—an advent uress? No, do not deprecate the ugly word. It is God's truth. I had to buy my future—unless desliny could be re versed, and the man 1 worshiped cared for me! And to buy it I had only—my self!” Lord Martindaie, the British banker, and Sir Roger moved toward them, be neath the palms. Lady Martindaie drew on the long glove she had removed. Her voice "Ms the usual one as she still looked toward the others and said quietly: “1 have found that women who marry for independence are like states that combine for it. Neither get it without —a revolution!” The three Englishmen were very near, almost within earshot, as site rose, add ing: “Yes, I was an adventuress then. Now I am worse; 1 am a failure, Adrien!” She spoke his name without emphasis, but it thrilled his ear like music. His heart beat faster than it ever had in all their "Flirtation” days. A dull sense of wonderment was alxnit his brain—a query sounding in it, if he had really been lit to comprehend her in all those wasted days of the long ago—if really lie comprehended himself now! And once more, as the others reached them, he muttered to hiiawlf: “is it kismet?" {To be voutinHLil ) W EAVER Orgaiw are sold the world over and are noted for their pure tone, handsome design and lini-h.

More than a week had poaaed since the sudden advent ot the Martindales at Cairo, each day of it filled with that the lain ages!” Then into tho philotophy of the enig- maed past crushed the ruthless realism of the present. Tho cockney groom ap- i proached and said: “Wud yo’ leddyship ’avo me pull the hale now?” And waving his hand across the im provised table over the possible Ptolemy Lord Martindalo's voice rang cheerily: “Come to luncheon. These bloaters are worth a dozen dead Pharaohs, you know.” Without reply Edith moved toward the others. But Latour saw her lip curl strangely as her eyes rested upon her husband.

A prominent Savannahian, formerly superintendent of a railroad, says: “I was crippled in my feet and arms so that 1 could not walk without crutch es, uor eat without having a servant to feed me. 1 tried phy J siciaus every where, hut to no ‘ purpose, and finally went to New York, where my doctors, at one time, decided to ampu tate my arm, but found that course impracticable, on account of a wound I had received dur ing the war. I returned to Sa vannah a complete wreck, and my case seemingly hopeless. As a forlorn hope i began to take P. P.
