came a great snake. It heard the noise
that Arthur was making, and, thinking
TO get breakfast, drew near to the
quicksand. Hardly had the newcomer
touched the quicksand when il saw its
own danger and tried TO retreat. Being
very long its body rested upon the solid
land on either side, therefore it was
able TO set away. Arthur saw it glid-
ing away and took a desperate chance.
Selling the snake around its wriggIing
body he held stoutly on and was drawn
out OF the quicksand, but found him
self in a new danger, for the snake was
very angry.
Arthur's strength was now so far
spent that he could not battle. His
fate was. he thought, TO escape from
the quicksand only TO be devoured by
a snake. He was saved because the
snake was not really very hungry just
then. Thinking that Arthur could not
escape, in his weak condition, the
enemy coiled itself up in front of Ar
thur and lay there TO rest, keeping its
eyes fixed upon him all the time.
How long would this last? Arthur
tried TO steal away, but the snake
moved, too. and Arthur saw that he
was in great trouble.
There came into view just then a
caravan. Arabs and others riding upon
camels. At the sound of the cameIs'
bells the snake ran away.
What now, COmrade2" asked an
Arab, as he saw Arthur lying on the
sand
I am sick and in trouble. Let. me
ride in your caravan and I viii pay
You we'll 1 am Arthur, son of the good
King"
You shall ride if you have thirty
rolls of silver
Alas" said Arthur Il have no sill
Yer; but my father, the King, viii give
YOU even sixty rolls of silver-yes and
as many Of gold if you viii befrtend
me.
"A great story, truly" said the Arab.
No; / have no room for you
Arthur saw the caravan get ready to
move on. He begged that they would
let MIN go with them. but the Arabs
mOched him. "A pretty story il is, -
the leader of the caravan said, but
who knows whether il is true2 1 fear
that, in these days of magic, when hon

the desert unless you can tell a story
more easy to believe to explain how you
happen to be here"
With that, in great haste, the coward
L Ara b ordered the caravan to start
and left Arthur to make his own way
out or to die, as it might happen.
Arthur tried TO follow the caravan, but
the camels were urged to run and he
was soon alone once more in the wilder
ness of sand hills, all of which looked
so alike that he could not tell which

The Arab, who was a magician, was
frightened at the danger to the Wisdom
Roll and so he ordered the best camel
to be given to Arthur, who very wisely
refused TO give up the roll until he
should have been carried to the gates
of the Three Kingdoms Of Zykobar.
At last they came to range of
mountains, the tops of which were
covered with snow. "Our path lies in
that way" said Arthur, pointing up
ward.
No person had ever lived to cross
these mountains.

Arthur saw in this that the writing
meant that he should go alone. So he
stopped the caravan when he had gone
half way up the mountains. There he
gave back to the Arab the Roll of Wis

and he told the camel drivers to go on
