do better to win the hearts of those who were
not,,with him than to declare amnesty? Call

His voice had become so faint that it had
died away in hoarse whisper. The Kaid
suddenly bent far over him and spoke loudly,
as if hoping that his words would penetrate
to the dying brain.
Buhammei," he said, II give you my
word! There shall be amnesty! promise it,!
Buhammei smiled gratefully, and then
they saw that his eyes were rowing round the
group. Dick, turning his head over his
shoulder, motioned with it toward Char
lotte. In plying tears she dropped to her
knees beside Buhammei and took his hand
in hers. With a last desperate effort the
Moor found strength to raise it reverently
to his lips and then sagged listlessly as if
weary of ambition, pain, and life, and the
Kaid, suddenly reaching over to lift him up,

WITH more respect than he had ever

cred the dead leader down on the cushion.
The stately sheriff and sheik dropped on
their knees with their faces toward the east
and muttered prayers. An added majesty
had come to Buhammei's face, as if death
had still further ennobled his features.

CHAPTER XVI.

THE full moon had come again. On the
terraced roof of the consulate, regard
less of the Moslem rule which declares that
the roofs belong to the women" the Hon.
Bob was taking his last look over the city of
Fee. Stretching away from him on every
side was sea of fiat topped terraces, towers
white and austere, the gray roofs of ancient
forts, and all relieved here and there by the
green pointed minarets lifted appealingly up
ward to the stars Up in the heart of the
city stood the ruins of the ancient fortress,
and beyond all, and seeming almost a part of
the brooding sky, lowered Mount Zalag, the
silent witness of the rise, growth, and state
of the ancient capital. The murmuring
sounds of harems, the soft twanging of
stringed instruments, the grooming lullabys
of song, and once the sound of flute, mellow
and melancholy, were waited across from
other terraces.
He looked over into the dark depths of the
street below and thought of that time only a
few weeks before when it had been filled with
silent, white clad men, fierce Berbers all,
who, under the proclamation of amnesty,
had invaded the city to pay fealty to the boy
Sultan and to claim their dead. He remem-
bered the turbid silence of their departure as
they carried Buhammei in state from the
doors of the consulate and on out through
the wide swung city gates on their march to
the desert.
The desert had claimed its own and given
him rest. The desert had given him title to
a throne, and then, when Fate wrested it
from him, had taken him back to its bosom.
The hope of the Berber was gone!
That the fierce tribesmen who had silently
entered the consulate and partaken of his
salt had sworn friendship to him and his,
mattered little to the Hon. Bob. For some
reason inexplicable, he was filled with a sense
of regret that this was to be his last night in
this intensely foreign city which he had in
vaded in so careless way. With lingering
look over the splendid moonlit panorama, he
turned to the stairway leading downward.
In the middle of the courtyard was min
iature pyramid of casks and bales wrapped
in waterproofs and securely dashed in readi-
ness for the panniers. Not participating in
his melancholy mood, from the half bare
salon on the side came shouts of laughter
from his household. The Kaid in a new
volubility, in terse sentences, was telling Of
the ceremony attendant upon his resigna-
ton.
THE good old Sidi was bound to Guido
himself. Two and twenty times he fired
the guns, although four is all a Sultan gets.
Quite possible it seems to me that he wished

Forty years ago. famous chemist had very sick
baby. 1t was fed with cows milk. with many medi-

That man was Henri Nestle, and the food he gave
his baby has come to the relief Of mothers ever since.
NESTLE'S FOOD, which saved his baby, will save
yours too.
And that's because most baby ills are due to indi-

food it cannot handle. Mothers. otherwise care

mothers milk and yet doctors have said over and
over again that this is a mistake
You see, cows milk is full Of indigestible curds.
which cause biliousness even in grown-up stomachs.
And cows milk is acid. while mothers milk is al

HE was seized with another violent fit of
II coughing which left him almost uncon-
scious of his surroundings, and again they
stimulated the fitfully glowing spark of life.
The Kaid shook his head at this, signifying
that he thought the end had come; but the
dying Moor rallied once more and in voice
so faint that it sounded as if from vast out
