1T Was Ryanne-the ErstwhiIe AffabIe Ryanne-


| floating in his glass of wine. All, fer
the dregs of that bottle now; warmth,
! revival, new courage! Curse
the luck! There went one of his
pumps He called out. The man lid
ms in front and leading Georges
i camel merely gave yank at the rope.
The camel responded with a cough
and quiCkened gait
Presently George became aware of
a singular fact: that he could see out
Of one eye better than the other;
and that the semi-useless orb shot out
Z little stars with every beat Of his
heart. One of his ears, too, began to
thrOb and burn. He felt of It. 1t was
less like an ear than a mushroom 1t
how; and he accepted the knowledge
rather proudly that the George Perci-
val Algernon, who but lately had en-
tered the English-Bar sprucely and
had made his exit in a kind of negli-
gible attire, had left behind one char
acter and brought away another. New
er again was he going to be shy: the
tame tiger, as it were, had had his
first taste of blood.
Dawn, dawn; if only the horizon
would brighten up a little so that he
could get his bearings By now they
were at least fifteen or twenty miles
from Cairo; but in what direction?
Hour after hour went by; over this
huge grey roll of sand, down into that
yhoT
the camels protested or his stirrup
cIinked against buckle; all with the
somber aspect of scene from Dante.
Several black spots, moving IN circles
far above, once attracted George; ana
he knew them to be kites, which will
follow a caravan into the desert even
as gull will follow a ship out TO sea.
Later, torpid indifference took pos
session of him, and the sense of pain
grew less under the encroaching
numbness.
And when at last the splepdor of
the dawn upon the desert flashed like
sword-blade along the sky in the
east, grew and widened, George COM
pretended one thing clearly, that they
were in the Arabian desert, out Of the
main travelled paths, in the middle of
nowhere.
His sense of beauty die not respond
to the marvel of the transformation.
The dark grey of the saud-hills that
became violet at their bases, to fade
away upward into little pinnacles of
shimmering gold the drab, formless,
scattered boulders, now assuming
clear-cut shapes, transfused with ruby
and sapphire glowing; the sun itself
that presently lifted its Tosal warm
ing circle above the stepping-off
place-George saw but noted not The
physical picture was oyershadowed by
the one he drew in his mind: the good
ship Ludwig, boring her way out into
the sea.
The sun was free from the deserts
rim when the leading camel was halt
ed. A confusion ensued; the camels
following stupidity into one another, in
kind of panic Out Of the silence
came a babble Of voices, a granting, a
clatter Of pack-baskets and saddle
bags. George, as his camel kneeIed,
slid of involuntarily and tumbled
against a small hillock, and lay there,
without any distinct sense of what
was going on round him. The sand,
fine and mutable, formed a couch com
; fortingly under his aching body; and
| he fell asleep, exhausted. Already the

swift, decisive battle against the on
set of tears: she smiled, and he was
too far away to see the swimming
eyes.
A bawlfRg of voices, a swapping Of
the kurbash upon the TANKS of the
camels, and the caravan was once
more under way. George looked at
his watch, which fortunately had been
overlooked by the thieving natives,
and found it still ticking away brisk
~ 1t was after nine. 1t was com.
fort to learn that the watch had not
been injured. Most men are method
ical in the matter of time, no matter
how desultory they may be in other
things. There is a peculiar restful-
ness in knowing what the hour is,
whether 1t passes quickly or whether
it drags.
Further investigation revealed
that his letter of credit was undis-
turbed and that he was the proud pos
SCISSOR of six damaged cigars and a
box of cigarettes. Instantly the
thought of being days without tobacco
an inveterate smoker, and the fact
that the supply was so pitiably small
gave unusual zest to his. craving. He
now longed for the tang of the weed
upon his lips, but he held out man
fully He would not touch cigar or
cigarette till nfghtfall, and then he
made up his mind to smoke half OF
either The touch, selfish and calcu-
lating, OF the miser, stole over him.
II Ryanne WAS without the soother,
SO much. the worse for him. The six
cigars Inc would not share with the
archangell Michael, suppOsing that
gentleman came down for smoke.
, Forward, always forward, winding
lin and out of the valleys, trailing over
the hills, never faster, never slower.
Noon came, and the bri1Gance Of aft
ernoom dirnmed and faded into the
short twilight. Were they never 60
ing TO stop? One hin more, and
George, to his infinite delight, saw a
cluster Of date-palms ahead mile
or so; and he knew that this was TO
be The haven for the ship of the deS-
ert. The caravan came to it unoer
the dim light of the few staxs that
had not yet attained their reflAgence,
Under the palms were a few deserted
mud-houses, huddled dejectedly to-
gether, like 0utcasts seeking the near
ness rather than the compan5onship OF
the eo-unfortunates. Men 1ad d"el6
here once upon a time, but the plague
had doubtless counted them out, one
by one. They made camp near the
well, which stifl contained water.
Prayers. A wailing chanted forth
toward Mecca. God is great. There
is no God but God"
George had witnessed prayers so
often that he no longer gave attention
to the muezzin calling at event1de
from the minaret. But out here IN
the blank wilderness, it caught him
again, caught him as ii had never
done before. A shfver stirred the hair
at the base of his neck. The lean
bodies, one not distinguishable from
the other now, kneeling, standing
sweeping the arms. touching the tore
head upon the rug, for even the low
est camel-boy had his prayer-rug'

George felt shame grow in his heart
Was he as loyal to his God as these
were to theirs?

him the futility of such procedure.
He would have to make the best OF
| foolish move; for the girl would
| eventually prove an encumbrance. At
any rate, he would wiring one white
mans heart till it beat dry in his
breast. That her health might be ru-
ined, that she might sfcken and die,
| in no manner aroused his pity. This
attribute was destined never to be
| awakened in Mahomed's heart.
The kissSal. the kisweh, always the
Holy Yhiordes; that he must have.
even if he had to forGge the pleasure
of breaking Ryanne. He Was too old
to start life anew; at least, too old
to stir ambition He had welded au-
thcrity too many years to surrender 1T
lightly; he had known too long his
golden-faked tobacco, his sherbet,
his syrupy coffee, the pleasant loaf
ing in the bazaars with his merchant
friends. To return to the palace, to
confess to the Pasha that his careless
ness had lost him the rug, would re-
suit either in death or Punishment;
and so far as he was concerned he
had no choice, the one was as bad as
the other. So, If theeyoung fool who
had bought the rug of Ryanne told
the truth when he declared that it
had been stolen again, then Ryanne
knew where it was; and he could be
made to tell he, Mahomed, would at
tend to that And when RyanDe con-

the abduction to the English authori-
ties did not worry Mahomed, Not the
f1eetest racing-cH 81 could find him,
and behind the walls of the palace
of Bagdad, only Allah could touch
him. He had figured it all out closely,
and he was an admirable strategist
in his way Revenge upon Ryanne for
the dishonor. and humiliation, and the
return Of the rug; there was nothing
more beyond that.
Before George had the opportunity
of speaking to Fortune, he was raised
from the sand and bodily lifted upon
his camel; and by way Of passing
/ D16dSduITy, Iuo hat was JcIAI1ASQ Q1Wd
over his eyes. He swore as he pglled
up the bri1n Swearing was another
accomplishment added to the list Of
transformations. He had deal to
learn yet, but in his present mood he
was likely, to proceed famou&iy. He
readiusted the hat in time tes see Ry-
anne u9peeremoniously dumped into
one of the yawning pack-baskets, his
arms and legs hanging out, his head
boiling against his shoulder, exactly
like a marionette, cast aside for the
time being. A man of ordinary STAN
ina would have died under such treat
ment. But Ryanne possessed an ex-
traordinary constitution. against which
years Of periodical dissipation had as
yet made no permanent inroads. More
over. he never forgot to keep his chin
up and his waist-line down. They put
him into the pack-basket because
there was no alternative, being as he
| was incapable of sitting. upon a cam
els back.
. Next, George saw Fortune, unre-
sisting, placed upon the camel, under
| canopy. At least, she would know a
little comfort against the days long
ride. His heart ached to see her. He
called out bravely to her to be of
good cheer. She turned and smiled !;
