Exercise is her cosmetic,

And ut night she often dances thirty miles

Oh, we all of us adore her,

She's a conscienocless, unmitigated ilirt, tlirt

inc and her brother, followed by Gargaridi,
who had been slumberinQ peacefully in a
corner, on a huge pile of cushions, were
conducted by the fre-worshipper to the
outside of the grotto.
The horses were still there. Gargaidi,
hurrying forward. endeavored to make
them rise to their feet. They would not
move. spite OF his vigorous efforts and an
occasional kick, but remained ms notion
less as statues. He was rapidly losing all
patience, and to indulge in smothered alb
jurgations, when Goucha -Nichin advanced
with a curious smile upon his face. Placing
the palm Of his hand upon the forehead Of
each of the horses in turn, he spoke como
word in a strange language. Immediately
w%hinnying rs if from pure joy, the animals
jumped to their feet n impatiently paved
the ground, full of life and spirit as a mo-
ment before they had been immovable and
inert.

old man, ''who are considered ignorant by

He re-entered the grotto and the young
people rode rapidly away toward their

CHAPTER III,
GOUL-HEK.

Principally at midnight, as the moon sank
slowly below the horizon, Maurice arrived
at the ruined monument which had been
made the meeting place. As he approached,
a figure, which had been seated a few PAGES
from the pillar, arose and saluted him. 1t
was Goucha-Nichin. With one hand he
leant upon y long bar of iron, in the other
he carried a ladder Of stout rope. Maurice
would have relieved him of his burden, but
the old man refused.
They set out upon their way. It was a
beautiful. calm night; since the disappear
ance of the moon, the stars seemed to shine
with redoubled brillianoy, and furnished all
the light the explorers required. The fire.

steady tread, his white robes showing
clearly through the gloom. Maurice fol
lowed. silent and wrapt in far from cheer
full thoughts. The hindrance placed upon
his work grievously troubled the young
savant, and the whole day had been one of
excitement and fatigue.
From time to time the fre-worshipper
would come to a halt and look upward as if
determining his whereabouts. Strange
words would fall from his lips. which his
companion could onlv conjecture to be
some unknown tongue. Evidently they
were nominations, as the old man would
raise both arms above his head as he spoke,
letting them fall slowly Town again to his
side; his face, turned toward the heavens,
! bore the expression of one waiting for some
supernatural sign. He appeared %oblivious
of the young F~renchman's presence.
Gradually the latter became imbued with a
feeling of distrust. The thought suddenly
struck him that these mummeries-as he
described them to himself-of Goucha-Ni-
chin were INDUCED in solely for the sake of
impressing himself. He quickened his
steps. and laying his hand upon the old
mans arm,s said in a suspicious tone, "Whet

"What interests?" asked Maurice, alb

The fre-worshipper folded his arms upon
his breast and. with head bent down, stood
quite silent.
"Answer mev' cried Maurice nngrily.
The old man still remained dumb. but
suddenly lifting his head and raising both
hands to heaven, he cried:

He advanced cautiously to the edge of the
precipice and lay down upon the ground,
instructing his companion to hold his feet
securely, and thrust his lantern over the
dark hole.
"Ho. there! Gargaridi! Aristomene! Are
you there?
At first his calls were unanswered save by
the echo from the walls, but at length a
muffied voice was heard at the bottom of
the abyss.
