curing the highest efficiency. Briefly, the

THE LADY OF THE HEAVENS.


At this saying the captains murmur- ed little, for they, who desired war, understood that she counselled peace between them and the Boers, though others thought that she meant that the Boers would perish. Dingaan also looked downcast. Watching their fla ces, Rachel was sure that not even her hand could hold them back from their desire. That war must come. Again she spoke:
 'The star travels whither it is thrown by the hand of the Unkulun- kulu, the Master of Men; the spear finds the heart to which it is appoint ed Read you the omen you vii. I have spoken, but ye will not under stand. That which shall be, shall be. '
 She bent her head, and turned her ear towards the ground as though to hearken.
 What was that tale Of the last words of the Great Lion who is gone?'' she went on. Ask it of Mopo, ask it of Dingaan the King. It seems to me that I also hear the feet of a people travelling over plain and mountain, and the rivers behind them run red with blood. Are they black feet or white feet? Read ye the omen as ye will. I have spoken for the first time and the last; trouble me no more with this matter of the white men, and your war; and turning, Rachel glided from the court, followed by Noie with bowed head.
