He had an advantage, and knowing
It, was pushing 1t to the limit; for all
his nonchalance the black man was
not unconscious Of the pistol; his eye
never forgot It. And Amber's eyes
left his not an instant Despite that
the fellows next move was a distinct
surprise
Suddenly and with superb grace, he
stepped forward and dropped to one
knee at Amber's feet, bowing his
head and Offering the hilt Of his sword
to the American.

CHAPTER x.
Mahnrann III khandawnr.

Maharana of khandawar.
Both hand and voice might well
have been Labertouche's; Amber be-
lieved they were. And the darkness
rendered visual Identification impossi-
BILE. No shadow Of doubt troubled
him as he yielded to the urgent hand,
and permitted himself to be dragged,
more than led, through the reeking,
milling mob, whose numbers seemed
each instant augmented. He had
thought, duly. to find II a difficult
matter to worm through and escape,
but somehow his guide seemed to
have little trouble.
Ever since that knife had flown
past his cheek, his instinct Of self
preservation had been dominated by a
serene confidence that Pink Satin was
at hand to steer him IN safety away
from the brawl. He thanked his stars
for Labertouche-for the hand that
clasped his arm and the voice that
spoke guardediy in his ear.
And then, by the light Of the street,
he discovered that his gratitude had
been premature and misplaced His
guide had fallen a pace behind and
was shouldering him along with al
| most frantic energy; but a glance
aside showed Amber, In Labertouche's
stead a chunky little Gurkha In the
fatigue uniform OF his regiment Of the
British army Of India. Pink Satin
was nowhere in sight, and It was Inn
mediately apparent that an attempt
to find him among the teeming hun
dreds before the goldsmiths stall
would be as futile as foolish-if not
fatal. Yet Amber's impulse was to
wait and he altered--something
which seemed to exasperate the
gurkha, who fairly danced with ex-
citement and impatience
Hasten, hazoor!" he cried. 'Ts this
time to loiter? Hasten ere they
charge you with this spilling Of blood.
The gods lend wings to our feet this
night"
But who are your" demanded Am,
Der.
What matter is that7 Is It not
enough that / am here and we'll dis
posed toward you, that risk my skin
to save yours?" He cannoned sudden
ly against amber, shunting him un-
tremendously out OF the bazar road
and into a narrow black alley.
simultaneously Amber heard a cry
90 up. shrili above the clamor OF the
mob, screaming that a white sailor
had knitted the goldsmith And he
turned pale beneath his tan.
You hear, hazoor? They are nam
ing you 70 the pollce-wallahs. Comet"
You're right" Amber fell into
long. free stride that threatened quick
ly to distance the gurkha's short,
sturdy legs. yet why do you take
this trouble for me?"
Why ask?" painted the gurkha.
Did I not stand behind you and see
that you did not throw tho knife? Am
a dog TO stand by and see an inno-
cent man yoked to a crime?" He
laughed shortly. Am 2 fool to for
get how great is the generosity Of
kings? This way, hazoori"
why call me king?" Amber
hurdled a heap Of offal and picked up
his pace again yet you will md me
generous, though but a sahib."
The sahibs are very generous"
Again the gurkha laughed briefly and
unpleasantly, But this Is no time for
words. Save your breath, for now we
must run"
He broke into a EpringJ lope. his
chin 10. elbows In and chest dlstend-
ed. his quick small feet HiopDinE ~

FRANkNEss AN ELEMENT OF
THE GREAT MAN.

An interviewer writing Of Wood
row Wilson relates the following In
oident which win bear repetition. The
newspaper man remarked:
you were speaking at the Univer
SHY Club banquet in Washington, sew
eral years ago. 1t was Washington's
birthday"
Mr.. Wilson nodded, Il remember
the occasion very well. he said.
"In your speech you referred to
washingtons farewell address. and in
terposed this parenthetlcal remark:
Which he did not write You did not
explain who did write Washington's
farewell address. nor do you indicate
what authority you had for your state
ment. And it struck me at the time, .
continued. that the remark was Pc
dantic, a gratuitous slap at the Father
OF our Country-and on his birthday
too"

II remember how kicked myself af-
ter had made that statement" he
said. Il can only account for it in
this way - that most men, on some
occasion or other. can not resist the
temptation to play the Smart Aleck :
We submit the governors frank ad-
mission as model to those gentle
men who are accustomed to so TO
pieces at the first touch Of criticism.
Or Wilson might have entered into
an elaborate explanation Of the his
torical point which he had raised but
! looking back over the lapse Of years
since he delivered the address in
question il just occurred to him that
J tho newspaper man was right and he
don'nt hesitate to admit it, even smil-
/ ing at his own folly. The incident
causes rs to suspect that the New
Jersey governor IS a bit larger man
than we had credited him with being
Efad we have long regarded him as a
! A.sod sized individual.

The proposition TO vote $4,000
worth OF bonds for bridges should
carry unanimously. We need the
bridges. farmers all over the county
are clamoring for them. and the com
missloners have figured It out SO that
it won't require any additional tax
levy. That's SO much like getting
something for nothing that no voter
should hesitate to approve 1t. Ade-
quate bridges are the first step to-
ward good roads. Grady county's fin
ancial affairs have been so ably hand
led that we have practically no bond
ed indebtedness and the amount OF the
proposed issue Is so small that It
wouldn't be felt By the tax payers
even though a levy TO support the
bonds were necessary, but no levy
is called for and therefore no valid
objection to the issuance OF the bonds
can be raised.

too frequently It is the father Faith

Some men have been rich and have
never been poor. some have been poor
and have never been rich; some men
have been smart and have never been
dull: some have been duh and have
never been smart: but all men, at
some stage OF their lives, have been
boys. and Just so long as boys will
be boys" that long must the father de-

the boy problem without expecting
