THE FIRST SECRETARY

ard, yet he could not but be afraid of
Government he could neither trust nor
fathom. He felt helpless sort of rage
yelling up in his heart at being thus
brought into troubles that might be the
ruin of him and his whole family. Yet
except for a tightening of his lips he gave
no sign of anger to his wife. Manifestly
now there was nothing to do but to help
her
What is your plan for getting him
inn" he asked.
His wife gave sigh of immense relief.
Go down to the carriage and be ready
to help, and you will see
She ran up stairs, and soon returned
with bundle in her arms. With this she
again entered the carriage, and in a min
ute reappeared, opening the door care
fully.
Come, Pantely," she said, help
mother to alight. Her rheumatism is
very bad to-day"
A figure swathed in the dressing gown
of madames mother descended from the
carriage with feeble steps, attentively
assisted from within by the strong Amer
lean.
Mavrocorthato gave to the figure
which to a suspicious observer might have
appeared larger than old Madame Par

out, gave another. and the four mounted
the steps and disappeared within the
house.
When Monsieur and Madame were
at last alone together, he took her hand
in both of his.
Athena" he said, will the time ever
come when you will think first of your
family, and then of others?"
The tears mounted to her eyes, and
she bit her lip.
1T is not only you and I and my
father who may be involved in this affair
it is Our children" Then her husband
drew her to him, and kissed her on the
forehead. You are a very pretty, gen
erous hearted, spoiled child, but it is
time to learn to be prudent"
When he had left her, Athena Nav
rocorthato sank into chair, sobbing
g wonder whether the men who marry
women for love can be any nicer to them
than Pantely is to me?" she said to her
self

for the young lover who believed her to
be imprisoned in her fathers palace.
Of the three in the carriage, Madame
Mavrocorthato, though least concerned
herself, was in the most unhappy state
of mind during the rest of the drive.
Just before they arrived at the house she
asked Takshan Pasha, still in Turkish:
Would you permit your daughter to
marry the young giaour whom she loves,
if YOU found herr"
Eagerly, from the depths of his fathers
heart, he replied, Her happiness is now
more to me than anything else. Were l
sure of that, could resign myself to the
Sultan's vengeance with joy
Madame eagerly nodded her head. So
much, at least, was gained for her Amer
lean friend sitting there unconscious of
the significance of the words that fell on
his ears.
When they arrived at her house, Mad
anne Mavrocorthato told the two men to
wait in the closed carriage until she re-
turned.
Her husband himself opened the door.
ALREADY back? Xeny and are the only
two in the house on this festal day." he
added as he saw her surprise at his an
swering the bell. Even Miss Kitty
asked permission, after you went away,
to take Kalliopy, under the protection of
a young Englishman who called for her,
and go forth to see the sights of Mid
Ramazan."
Good" madame calculated. 1T will
be easier than l thought
What will be easier?" he asked.
An unwonted embarrassment overlook
Madame Mavrocorthato. Till now she
had given no thought to her husband and
his authority. Now full realization of it
came over her, and she blushed wildly.
Why, Pantely!" she exclaimed breath
lessly. Il am sorry, but l think have
again been imprudent."
The husband took the pretty hand that
was extended toward him. and brought

note of his wife's unusual agitation,
"Athena!" he gasped, you have not

Worse, my friend" she admitted, and
in a few words told him the whole
situation.

and bat are worshiped as war gods, and in
times of war their actions are supposed
to indicate success or defeat. If the king
fisher flies before the troops, it is a good
sign. but if it comes flying toward the
people as they are preparing to start, the
omen signifies defeat Should an owl fly
about overhead while the troops are walk
ing along, that is a good sign; but if it
flies away in the direction of the enemy,
it is supposed to have left the one party
and gone to join the other, and therefore
to signify a calamity.

THERE is belief current among the
Negroes and ignorant whites of the
South that the blue jay visits the
internal regions every Friday. This belief
varies somewhat in different parts of the
South; for instance, in South Carolina it
is supposed to be carrying sticks for the
devils fires, while in Mississippi and
Louisiana the bird is supposed to report
to His Satanic Majesty the status of
his affairs on earth.
According to Irving, the Delaware
Indians had superstitious reverence for
the eagle, believing that guardian spirit
in the form of this bird watched over
them, lowering in the sky far out of
sight When pleased with their actions,
he sent abundant crops and made them
have great success in hunting; but when
displeased he would vent his rage in the
thunder, which was his voice, and the
lightning, which was the flashing of his
eye, and strike dead the object of his
displeasure. They also believed that the
feathers of this bird would render the
wearer invisible and invulnerable.
The old settlers of the Hudson River
valley considered the arrival of the pewit
as sure sign that the severe frosts of
the winter were at an end, and that the
husbandman might resume his 1abors.

The Owl As a God

THE Hawaiians worshiped number of
i birds, but the most benefcent was the
owl. This god gave its worshipers timely
warning of an approaching danger; it
aided the prisoner in untying the knotted
cords with which he was bound, and in
making good his escape, and guided the
fugitive, hiding him from his pursuers SO
that they might not find him The mud

makers She was said to inspect all the

One OF the most touching and beautiful
superstitions of the Seneca Indians was
in connection with the death of maiden
of the tribe. AS soon as she was dead they
imprisoned young bird, until it first
began to try its powers of song, and then,
loading it with kisses and caresses, they
loosed its bonds over her grave, in the
belief that it would not fold it's wings nor
close its eyes until it had flown to the
spirit and and delivered its precious bur-
den affection to the loved and lost.
According to the early settlers, it was
not infrequent to see twenty or thirty
birds loosed at once over single grave.
