1t for Peggy's benefit.
"The son of the prophet desires that
you be as quick as possible, queen of

commands YOU to come with him at

sheik. In an instant, however, she was
smiling agreeably and was turning to-
ward the steps.

Monty" she said quietly.
What are you going to do Marga-

with amazement.
II am going to marry the son Of the

every one gasped. A moment later she
was surrounded by a group Of excited
