my own mark. one of noble birthi'
exclaimed the Finn. with suppressed
excitement. Between these stones
saw the cup and scepter rise. Beneath
our feet lies the treasure"
In low voiced tones Desmond and
Preobeslas consulted. and their pur-
pose took shape as follows:
Centrally down the channel of the
water course they threw up a ridge of
sand and stone. running il parallel
with the banks and not striving as yet
to divert the streamlct'S course. Some
three or four yards above where they
believed the treasure to lie they began
their emhankment. stenming the cur
rent with a huge bowlder. Working
down FROM this. they dug sand anu
silt with vigorous spade strokes, and
soon ridge about three feet high be-
gan to stand up in midstrcam.
While the sailors continued To pile
up and strengthen this embarrassment
Desmond and the colonel proceeded to
hurl stones and Jumps between the
head of the new made mound and the
shore. joining the two slantingly. and
gradually de.iccting the water into the
narrowed channel. down which it
coursed deeper and swifter in its
straitened bounds.
AS the last of the pools drained
away and left the sandy intervals dry
they left this work and took their
stand before the rock first Indicated
by the Finn
With spade and mattock they flung
themselves upon the river bed and
hurled aside the sand with eager haste.
For ten minutes they toiled unreward-
ed. Then the colonel resigned his spade
to Pladja. Desmond. in better train
ing and with the determination of
youth. stuck to his task. The other
six continued to buttress the bulwark
of sand between these workers and the
stream outside.
Suddenly there WAS chink Pladja
flung down his spade and seized the
object against which it had struck
lie held 1t up in the wavering moon
light. and in tlice all nine had gath
cred about him. peering with straining
eyes at what he held. 1t was a huge
disk of metal-that much could be as
certained in the dimness of the over
hanging boughs-but it was not till a
sudden parting of the clouds sent
down shaft of silver light between
the pines that the nature of the thing
was accurately seen. A broad salver
or virgin gold was poised in the Firms
hands. richly embossed and chased.
The figures were slightly dulled and
worn by the action of the damn earth
out they shone with a luster no other
metal could match. 1t was unmistak
able in its soft sheen.

A DOZEN BOTTLES,
A Basket of TO-kaIOn Wine Makes nm
Accountable Gift


The office of the To-Kalon Wine Com
pany, at GA 14th street, is a busy place
Just now, for Washingtonians appreciate
the product of the To-Kalon vineyards
and are buying daily for Christmas and
holiday use.
A basket of To-Kalon wines-claret, sher-
ry, port, etc. never fails of being a most
acceptable gift. These fine California wines
have attained Immense popularity in COM
paratively few years. They are recog-
nfzed everywhere as standard for purity
and flavor. The notion that wine to be
good must come from France has been
very largely dissipated since it became
known that the importers for years have
been in the habit of bringing over in French
bottles wines which had previously been
shipped to France from California vine
yards.
Your Christmas dinner will not be COM
plete unless you are prepared to offer your
guests the proper wines with each course.
To-Kalon wine pleases the taste of the most
fastidious. Moreover, you will need wines
all through the holiday season. and must
provide for the festivities of New Year
day. which follows SO soon after Christmas
that an ample supply should be had when
ordering at this time.
