Tie Erinna was steaming quietly

been sent out in a taximeter. pro-
vided with a few measurements and
plenty Of cash, and commissioned to
buy everything that a girl who had
nothing at all to wear, visible or in
visible. could possibly need. He was
also instructed to find a maid who
could speak Tartar, or at least little
Turkish.
After five hours he had come back
with a heavy load of boxes Of all
shapes and sizes and the required
maid. You can find anything in q

You are good to see." Logotheti
answered, stopping and pretending to
examine her face critically as she
stood and faced him.

you to speak for any man, since go

missionaries, brought to England and
educated to go into service; she spoke
English very prettily, and had not alto
gether forgotten the lingua franca Of
Asia
The consequence OF her presence
was that Baraka was dressed with
great neatness and care, and looked
very presentable, though her clothes
were only ready-made things, bought
by a man-servant, who had only her
height and the size of her waist to
guide him. Logotheti watched her
delicate, energetic profile. admiring
the curves of her closed lips, and the
willful turning up of her little
chin. She was more than very pretty
now, he thought, and he was quietly
amused at his own audacity in taking
her to sea alone with him, almost on
the eve of his marriage. 1t was espe-
cially diverting to think of what the
proper people would say if they knew
1t, and to contrast the intentions they
would certainly attribute to him with
the perfectly honorable ones he enter
tanned.
As for Baraka, il never occurred to
her that she was not as safe with him
as she had been in her fathers house

die had been given back to her, and
she could feel it in its place when she
pressed her left hand to her side.
Logotheti has been first of ali pre-
occupied about getting Baraka out of
England without attracting attention,
and then for her comfort and recov-
cry from the strain and suffering of
the last few days. As for that, she
was like healthy young animal. and
rs soon as she had chance she had
fallen so sound asleep that she had
not walked for IL hours. Logotheti's
intent was to take her to Paris by q
roundabout way. and establish her
under some proper sort of protection.
Margaret was still in Germany, but
would soon return to France, and he
had almost made up his mind to ask
her advice, not dreaming that in such
Q case she could really deem anything
he did an unpardonable offence. He

Logotheti answered her smile and
her tone.
Il shall do what you ask me, but I
shall do 1t slowly rather than quick
ly. because that will be better for you
IN the end. II We had gone on az we
were going, we should have got to
land tonight, but to wretched little
town from which we should have had
to take night train, hot and dirty
and dusty, all the way to Paris. That
would not help you to rest, would it?"
- "Oh, no! I wish to sleep again in
your ship, once, twice, till cannot
sleep any more. Then you will take
me to the place"
THAT is what you shall do. To that
end / gave orders this afternoon"
"You are wise, as well as great"
Baraka said
They left the rail and walked slowly
forward, side by side, without speak
ing; and Logotheti told himself how
utterly happy he should be If Baraka
could turn into Margaret and be walk
ing with him there; yet something an.
swered him that since she was not by
his side he was not to be pitied for
the company of a lovely Tartar girl
whose language he could understand
and even speak tolerably; and when
the first voice observed rather drily
that Margaret would surely think that
he ought to feel very miserable, the
second voice told him to take the
goods the gods sent him and be CRATE
full; and this little antiphone Of
Ormuzd and Ahriman went on for
some time, till it occurred to him to
stop the duo by explaining to Baraka
how a European girl would probably
slip her arm, or at least her hand,
through the arm of the man with
whom she was walking on the deck of
q yacht, because there was generally
a little motion at sea, and she would
like to steady herself, and when there
was none, there ought to be, and she
would do the same thing by force of
habit. But Baraka looked at such be-
havior quite differently.
That would be a sort of dance"
she said. Il am not a dancing girl! I
have seen men and women dancing
together. both Russians in Samarkand
and other people in France. It is dis
gusting. would rather 60 unveiled

(Which may Allah Forbid" an.
swered Logotheti devoutly. But
where there are Englishmen, Allah
does nothing: the women go without
wells, and the boys and girls dance to-
Eether."
Il have done worse" said Baraka,
''for l have dressed as a man, and if
a woman did that among my people
she would be stoned to death and not
buried. My people will never know
what l have done since l got away
from them alive. But he thought he
was leaving me there to die!"
Surely. cannot see why you wish
to marry a man who robbed you and
tried to compass your death! can
understand that you should dream of
killing him, and he deserves to be
burnt alive, but why you should wish
to marry him is known to the wisdom

"You never saw him." Baraka an

Nrv York Jan. 1.-THE stock market
underwent a further process of speculative
5snation today The severe break in the
Triq securities had a special explanation
N fhe belief that the proposed 5000, 600
bond issue which was the plan of financ-

shares and the unsettling effect of this
rash on the whole of the general list.

SPECULATION that was played last week by

The market experienced an occasional

sentiment is shaped to some extent by
disappointment over the response to the
rapid easing of the money market which
is more marked even than was anticipated.
