The Daily Short Story
The Plan to Kill Laon.

Tonight the Indian prince was think
ing as to how he would kill this Laon.
and many plans came into his mind.
He reached for Il wine cup, and as he
was in the act of drinking his mind
was flashed with an inspiration. He
saw his way clearly. He laid the half
emptied goblet upon the board, and
leaning back in his chair lie smiled as

And he began to revel in his scheme.
He looked at it from this side, from
that side and thought of all the con

working of it out. for this Laon was
surely one of great power.
And as he was thinking he suddenly

mind OF another when far apart! He
had heard of beings who could feel the
innermost thoughts of others. He had
heard of men who had discovered the
hidden secret that uuderlay and was
the life Of all things-magicians who
kept their knowledge from the world,
who mixed not closely with their fell
lows, whose aim was to keep the
knowledge of their secret close till men
were wiser.
Could it be that this Laon was one or
these men or as one of them:
But he was so young. He was-but
stay. was he so young after all? Did
not his eyes. though brilliant, look old
and full of an all knowledge? Aye, his
eyes looked wise and old. and it is the
eyes that tell the age. This Laon was
old
And then he began to think of him
self Why did he wish to kill-ever TO
kill? What was the thing or the de
mon that drove him to plan, carefully
to plan. the death of those who had
done him no harm-those against
whom he bore no malice? Vengeance
had never overtakcn him because he
was such power in the land.
But why did he feel this desire TO
kill? There was nothing malignant in
his look. He was neither misshapen of
body nor distorted of limb nor cruel of
feature.
Then why-why did he kill? There
were times when he felt a love and
tenderness for all things, times when
he felt
oh, why-why did he obey this
prompting? This question repeated it
self to him again and again.
And as if to answer it lie sprang up
suddenly. His eye had become cold
and threatening. His thoughts had
taken another turn.
He killed-he killed because of the
sense of power it brought him. 1t was
fine to carefully plot and plan. to lie
awake in the dead of night when all
was still and think, think as to the
killing of the one he had fixed upon.
Yes, he would kill this Laon. Magic
or no magic, he would kill him. He
would begin the working out of the
plan he had formed at once.
He was reaching up his hand to a
small square box that lay upon a shelf
when he heard n slight noise behind
him.
He looked, and there was Laon again,
but now he was clad in The garb of
priest of Brahma. His right hand was
raised aloft; his left hand was grasping
huge, writing snake, the body Of
which trailed off behind him.
You have not needed my warming"
said Laon in slow. cold voice. land
you are to die. The last act of your
will has used the last of your life force,
and you are now to be punished for
your crimes. You are to live for the
space of one human life in the body of
this snake. As you die it will die, and
then it will live again, possessed of
your soul. Die, prince, die-die of
