Of priests on the Sacred Mountain.
They were all gluttonous for the pas
sions of the moment; it was their
fashion and conceit to look at moth
ing beyond.
Flaming jets Of earth breath lit the
great hall TO the brightness Of mid
day; and when stepped out upon the
pavement. trumpcts blared, so that
all might know of my coming. But
there was no roar of welcome. "Deuc-
alion," they lsped with mincing
voices. bowling themselves ridiculous
~ to the ground SO that all their or
naments and silks might jangle and
swish. Indeed, when Phorenice her
self appeared, and all sent up their
cries and made lawful obeisance,
there was the same artihciality in the
welcome. They meant well enough,
it is true; but this was the new FASH
ion. llcartincss had come TO be ac-
counted ba rbaris m by this new Gull
ture.
A pair Of posturing, Sinking
chamberlains took me in charge, and
"
wands to the dais at the farther end.
IT appeared that ] was to sit on
Phorenice's divan and eat my meat
out of her dish.
There is no stint to the honor the
empress puts upon me- | said, as l
knclt down and took my seat
She gave me one of her queer side
long looks. "Deucalon may have
more beside. if he asks for il prettily.
He may have what all the other men
in the known world have sighed for,
and what none of them will ever get.
But have given enough Of my own
accord: he must ak me warmly for
those further favorN."
II ask" | said first. that may
sweep thc boundaries clear Of this
rabble which is clamoring against the
city walls"
"Pah!" She said. and frowncd.
"Havc you appetite only for the
Steiner pleasures of life? My good
Deucalion, they must have been rus
tic folk in that colony OF yours.
Well, sou shall give me news now Of
the toothSOmeness Of this feast"
Dishes and goblets were placed be-
fore us. and we began TO eat. though
! had little enough appetite for
yictual so broken and so highly >piced.
But if this fnicking cookery and these
luscious wines did not appeal TO me.

I fairly startled out of my de-

OF their condcscension," said Phor-
enicc, lightly, "they are giving us
holiday to-day. and SO, happily. my
welcome to you comes undisturbed.
If they were fighting, your ears
would have told you Of it. TO give
them their due. they are noisy
enough in all their efforts. My spies
say they are making ready new en-
Cines for use against the walls, which
you may sally out tomorrow and
break If it gives you amusement. But
for to-day, Deucalion, have you,
and you have me, and there is peace

"And do you think cannot take il
seriously also?" She rctorted. "Ilea,"
she said TO The girl that stood bc-
hind. "set loose my dress at the

linked the jeweled clasp (as it
seemed to me with very i'll grace).

thoughtfully. But that still further

to the girl who stood behind us.
"Nlga, fan not so violently"
our talk broke off then for the
moment, and | had time to look
about me. We We're passing through
the chief street in the fairest, the
most wonderful city this world has
yeGrs beGore, and was curious TO note
its Increase.
In public buildings the city had
certainly made growth; there were
new temples, new pyramids, new pal
aces, and statuary everywhere. Its
greatness and magniticence i'm

usual, returning to it as ! did from
such IA distance of time and space,
for, though the many cities Of Yu-

Il was imperial and gorgeous beyond
descriptive words.
Yet most of all was | struck by
the poverty and squalor which stood
in such close touch with all this mag
niticence. In the throngS that lined
the streets there were gaunt bodies
and hungry faces everywhere. Here
and there stood one, a man or a
woman, as naked as savage in Fu-
rope, and yet dun TO shame. Even
the trader, with trumpery gauds o.
his coat, aping the prevailing fashion
for display had u scared, uneasy
look on his face, as though he had
forgotten the mere name Of safety,
and hid his frantic heart with his
tawdry outward vauntings of pros

looks.
THE season." she said. has been
unhealthy of recent months. These
lower people will not build fine
houses to adorn my city, and because
they choose to live on in their
squalid. unsightly kennels. there have
been calenturcs and other sicknesses
among them, which make them disin-
clined for work And then, too, for
the moment, earning is not easy. In
