OF Constable's pith helmets was upon her

her, the sleeves rolled up to her hands |;
and a pair of his shoes was laced over her
own. 1t was difficult to move about In
this regalia, but it kept off the whitening
draughts. The boat was lowered.
A half-hour later, they were forced to
put back to the ship. Ernst was whim-

signal of his failing endurance. Lara had

conditions had been encountered which

pulled about to the lee of the steamer, and
at a portfolio glass she saw the sneering
face of Pugh, still in irons.

stern, hands and lips tense, during the
cloudburst. 1t was nearly two in the at

start made. The sailors gave them a

low beach the little boat was pulled, its
occupants the first to look Upon the heap

Pierre's destruction. Denny and Ernst
took turns at the oars, sometimes pulling
a single blade together. Rare running
mates, they were, odd as two white men
could be, but matched to a hair in cour-
age. Ernst bent to his work, grim,
stolid mechanism. Denny jerked at the
oars, and found breath and energy re-
naming to assail Pugh, with his barbed
and poisoned tongue. The woman, in tho

The Fertile Desert.

The desert is the most fertile area in
the United States. That sounds like a
paradox, yet it is true. Where did the
great civilizations Of antiquity arise
Where but in the fertile deserts
Egypt, Syria, Palestine, Persia, Arabia,
Northern India, the north coast Of AZ
RIGA, were all arid lands. The Incas
in Peru, the Toltecs and Aztecs in Mex
leo, reared their civilizations upon
desert plateaus. The history of the
Jews is history of desert folk. It
was within the encircling walls Of the
desert that they evolved their national
and their religious consciousness. Out
Of the desert sprang all these things as
the water gushed from the rock at the
blow Of Moses
The desert is most fertile because II
is savings bank without any with
drawals. Plants need potash, magne-
STA, lime and other foodstuffs, Just as
we need animals and plants. Now in
the humid lands, such as IN our East
ern States, the rains have fallen for
tens Of thousands of centuries, and they
have washed out the food Of the plants.
But in the arid lands the rains have
fallen sparingly or not at all. Some
Of the desert lands Of our West contain
three times as much potash, six times
as much magnesia, fourteen times as
much lime, as the humid lands of the
East. The desert Is an inexhaustible
storehouse Of food for the plants Of
thousands Of years to come, store
house to be drawn upon as soon as the
land is irrigated. Success Magazine.

"You like dis-perhaps?" said the
pretty Syrian woman, holding out some
crocheted lace toward the lady Of the
house. It. was ia New York home,
and there was possibly something in
congruous about the beautiful sur

laces and embroideries. The incongru-
ity did not strike either mistress or

CHAPTER XVI.

CHAPTER XVI.
It was after eleven when the Madame
de Stael regained the harbor. The cloud
burst had spent itself. Out from The
land rolled an unctuous smudge which
bore suggestions of the heinous impartial
ity of a great confagration. The harbor
was cluttered with wreckage, doom-pic-
ture for the eyes of the sea amen. Dimly,
fitfully, through the pail, they saw the
ghosts of the shipping-black bulls with
out helm or hope. The Madame rented a
deep-toned roar, but no answer was re-
turned-not a voice from the wreckage,
not the scream Of gull. A sailor hcaved
the lead, and the scathed steamer bored
into the rising heat.
Ahead was emptiness. The woman was
standing forward on the main deck. The
wind tunnelled through the smoke, and
she saw the hills shorn of her city. The
hope that the guns of Pelee had been
turned seward was crushed with other
hopes. A cry was wrung from her breast
at last. The anchor chain was dropped,
and two men were bearing the brave
Negley down from the bridge. Nacready
fastened to the woman's side.
Arrange to get small boat, Denny.
We must go ashore" she commanded, re-
covering self-possession.
Macready felt that it was now time to
force matters.
'You can't 60 ashore yet, lady" he ex-
claimed. II cud bake a potato here, sure,
in the holla av my hand. What, thin,
must it be in that pit av obstruction 2"
He was staring in smoke-stained face.
The purpose there was immovable as
granite. The voice that he heard made
him vince with fear, lest she should d.
rect upon him words such as had been
Pugh's portion.
"Mr. Macready, get small boat ready !!
1 am going ashore"
"Sure, an I'll go wit you, ma'am," he
said hastily.
II did not think you would withhold
your aid from him, Denny. Make haste"
she added gently.
The sailor whom Denny persuaded to
accompany them was the old lion, Ernst,
who had held the launch at the pier so
long, and who had been relieved for the
last trip. Water, medicines, food, spirits
and many cakes Of ice, thickly wrapped
in tarpaulin, were placed in a small boat.
The woman suffered herself to be CARRIED
according to the ideas Of Macready. One

In q stunned way she stared at the
officer. Don't you know he was to be

was standing behind the woman. "You
don't seem able to manage one passenger"
he said in an ugly tone. "I'm shorthand

wickedly. Get below or I'll call the sail

Lara turned to the ladder, brushed back
the drenched hair from her eyes, and said
coldly, slowly, Il see there is a coward in

For that one instant she was a vivid
replica of her mother. The viperine face
of Pugh turned ashen under her eyes.
Reaching the main deck, she told Mac

Nature was trying to right herself in
the brain of the stricken seaman. In the
gray eye, she watched the struggle as she
impressed her message. 1t was torture to
bring him back. = He asked if the

It was a sweet duty for Macready,
whose colors had been lowered in the
presence of the woman. Pugh gave an
order to the man at the wheel, and fol-
lowed the Irishman below. Lara had held
the light in the gray eye.
"What do you mean by putting out
without the owner?" Negley demanded
thickly.
Pugh's black eyes roved from the face
of his superior to the sailors; to the
drenched woman who had caused It al! to
the hated Macready at the door. They
were enemies all.
"As 1 explained to the lady, was

Snow Motoring
Tuesday, June 10.

Touring by motor car during the
winter months is exceeding vigorous
exercise and everybody cannot stand
1t. One has to be assembled. cor
rectly and designed just 80. to brave
the delights Of a landscape covered
with the spotless white fakes, when
there is nothing in sight for miles
and miles.
Motorists, as a body. have out
grown the idea that the car must be
stored away for the winter. to rust
and grow rickety, and many keep
their cars In commission almost daily.
during the chilly season. There are
many indeed who cannot get enough
fresh air in the city. even in winter,
and these are the folks who ought
to drive up through the Berkshires
and back, for some needed physical
exercise. For such people the trip
taken by a party of motorists last
winter from New York to Springfield,
Massachusetts, would be an ideal
trip. This sort of three or four-day
tour will be even more ENJOYABLE. If

snow a little less deep than it was on
that occasion. for a blizzard prevent

1t was an ideal day for the work in
