CHAPTER XII

At the close of a long, hot day, the
enchanted yacht sighted land-a blur
of gray and green to the left. AS the
night deepened this verged into a
splash of tropic green. washed with a
spendthrift moon. Betty begged to be
allowed to stop on deck to watch this
dawning beauty, and Tyoga, muffled in
long white cloak, stood beside her.
AS they approached the harbor, Betty
saw it was the jettying mouth of a
river, the banks lined with mosshung
palms, springing from matted
growth of reeds, entwined vines, rush
es and lush grass. Straight up the
river they went in the moonlight,
through a current so slow that the
stream appeared stagnant. No sign of
habitation met the eye. and the jun
giles to either side were still as death
save for the occasional roar of a lion.
or snarl of some angered panther.
The river verged into a lake, black
and forbidding, within bleak beaches of
yellow sand, and from there they rush
ed into another river rooted with en-
tangled trees through which filtered a
blood-red sunrise. All day they fol-
lowed this river, pimpled at intervals
with lakes. small or large, and clear
or muddled. The white heron and the
storm watched them unheeding. A
crocodile or two sided after them, and
at intervals some huge snake, untwin
ing from a long hanging bough, would
stretch it's Shiny length across the
snowy deck Twice they passed a herd
of elephants coming down to drink, and
often sent an affrighted lioness hurry
ing back from the waters edge to her
mewing kittens. The purple lotus
spread itself despairingly over some Of
the slimiest pools as if to patch up
black hideodsness with perfect bloom
All this tropical splendor finally wear
led even Betty's rapt eyes, and she
chung gratefully to Tyoga's arm as the
negress said: 1--WE are at our journeys
end" And with it had come the night.
The yacht had swung through an
archway, and shot into a rooted pas
sage, water dripping from the stones
and moss above them, and a raven
cawed as they stopped at stubby
wharf. from which led up dizzy flight
of dimly lighted granite steps
The stairs ended in a vaulted corrf-
dor hung with a few antique brass
lamps. Placed at intervals along the
sides were low stone couches covered

There were once two retail grocers-
bitter competitors-who lay awake
nights figuring out ways to best each
other.
If Jones sold Binks beans at regular
prices Smith would cut.
One day Smith put card in his
window, Guaranteed Eggs-30c a

to 25c dozen. Smith cut to zoe. Jones
slid to 1sc-and the neighborhood
walked up and reached for its pocket
book.
Smith hung a ham on the safety
valve, and reduced his price to 10c a
dozen-Jones matched him with a du-
plicate sign.
BY this time the whole town was on
ham and egg diet, and each dealer
had a steady line of callers.
After two days of this Smith wore
worried look-he was $3.50 out. Jones

When the old negress had led her
back to her shady seat on deck Betty
Lancey sat and scanned the offing for a
sail. and wondered how she could get
word to Larry Morris where she was,
and how in the world she could send
the news she had to the Inquirer" Of
flee.
Somehow her hunger for Larry was
far worse than her desire to satisfy
the newspaper appetite of delivering
her portion of the solution to the
Wayne murder mystery. Betty, self
reliant Betty, weakened by the first Sc
we're illness she had ever known; Bet
ty, stripped of the practical routine
adjuncts of the daily life to which she
was accustomed; Betty, who had OPEN
ly houted at poetry and romanticism.
this same Betty plunged into a fire of
mystery, murder and death. convalesc-
ing from a malignant attack of brain
fever, was beginning to discover that a
woman is a weakling after all, and that
when she needs a strong arm to lean
on she wants it sadly. And in the
mist and mirage of the life from which
she had so suddenly been taken away,
1t was Larry Morris. his face, his fig
ure and his personality that Betty's
heart and soul reached out for vainly.
IL she could have found an empty
bottle anywhere she would have
CHANGED that old pastime of the mari
ner and last refuge of the shipwreck-
ed-a note in a bottle. But bottles
there were none, nor anything else fea-

With returning health, however, came
renewed interest in life. She had
good food. the weather was fine, and
Betty splendid sailor. She possessed
the exuberance of youth and all of a
newspaper womans curiosity for the

LIE Malheureux was well read, ceur-

and a delightful companion when he so
| chose. But he never saw her for more
than an hour a day, and was reticent
about himself and his people. Betty
gathered that he had long lived in AZ
RIGA, though he had been educated in
England France and Germany. BY
education he was a physician, by for
tune Independent, and by occupation a
research worker in the extensive fields
of electro therapy. But there were
three things he never did-he never
removed or shifted any of his somber
drapings, his hands were always glow

later surprise the down cushions and

bed she had ever rested upon. There
were stone stools. chairs of oddly twist
ed tropic woods, and a great mirror OF
EBONY, ivory and gold, studded with
hundreds of precious stones. Swing

lamp OF filigree and jewels, and this
burned low and dull.

said Tyoga- Meta there win bring

you must rest. Rest the sweetest you

shall not be with you; 1 have other
duties; but Meta will sleep here on a

Betty's hand, and Betty could have
sworn a tear fell upon it.
Tyoga spoke truly. Meta brought
the milk as deliciously warm and fra
grant as If roses had been stepped
within its limpid depths. The cool
linen garment the slave wrapped
around Betty rested her fevered skin,
and the pillows were magic wings that
bore her away to Forgetfulness Land.
Sleep came. just sleep, no dreams, and
the sun was topping the heavens when
blue-eyed Betty awakened. Tyoga
was not yet returned but Meta, faith
full and silent, stood by the couch gen.
tly waving huge palm branch.

nest. She stretched her feet luxuri-

She rose hurriedly, in pantomime
beseeching Meta to hasten with her
garments. For the shoes Betty had
kicked off and left on the floor of the
Directory Hotel the night of her ILL
fated visit to the Harcourt apartments
Tyoga had substituted a quaint pair
of high heeled slippers, as unlike Bet
tvs usual substantial footgear as a
rose is like a radish. And in place OF
her strictly tailored waist Betty was
now wearing soft draperies of vari-

clothes she didn't know, and Tyogs
had successfully resisted all Emporium

wherefore of her present incarnation.

Living Prices Abroad.

Like the American housekeeper, the
English woman is complaining of the
increasing prices of beef, mutton and
pork. Beef is dearer now in London
than it has been in 30 years. The dear
ness is attributed to scant supplies from
Canada and the United States, and there
is demand that British ports shall be
opened to beef from the Argentine.
The importation of Argentine cattle has
been cut off since the outbreak of foot
and mouth disease several years ago.
There can. be no reduction of beef prices,
dealers say, until Irish grass-fed cattle
arrive in the fall, says New York Sun.
The prices of beef in London now
are high, but they may strike Ameri-
can housekeepers as the reverse. The
best cuts, including ribs and sirloin have
advanced about l cent pound, to %
or 23 cents. The best cuts of mutton
are from % cents to "a cents a pound.
Beef is rising in price, not only in
free-trade England, but protectionist
France. In Paris the best ribs and sir
loins have advanced about cents a
pound. Choice sirloin in the best quar-
ters of Paris costs about 33 cents a
pound, while good mutton is % cents.
In Rome, too, the price of beef is going
up. Meat is always dear in Rome, and
the lower middle classes rarely can
afford to eat it. The average price of
the best beef in Rome now is about 40
cents, while veal costs about 4S cents.
In Berlin the best sirloin costs about 35
cents pound. Pork everywhere, espe-
cially in England, has gone up in price
owing to the scant supplies the world
over.
