Barber Shops in China.

Since the Chinese revolution 4
great many Chinese have had :heir

1t has also been learned that the Chi

experience a large increase in their

BY DAY they rode through Jungle,
wood and rolling uplands, or less east
ly through the Businesses of the hills,
side by side, thought linked to
thought, their hearts attuned. BY
night their camps were pitched In a
new-found world of beauty, wonderful
in It's shadowy mystery.
1t was so ordered that they came,
toward shutdown of certain day, to
the foot of a hill crowned with a great
pagoda of many multiplied roofs firing
ed with a myriad silver bells that
tinkled ceaselessly in the evening
airs.
Here they dismounted and together
made the ascent of an age-old wooden
stairway, broad and easy, and throng-
ed from the first rise to the last with
weary pilgrims, beggars, lepers, laugh
ing children, mendicant holy men. The
sun was low upon the horizon when,
having bribed their way along that
gauntlet, O'Rourke and his bride (she
could never be aught less to him) at
tanned to the topmost platform and,
having received permission, with meet
show of reverence entered the temple.
1t was very dark inside and for a
time they moved blindly in and out;
but at length they came to massive
doorway looking toward the West, and
here they paused, hand in hand, look
ing up to the placid face of huge
Buddha, who squatting cross-legged
upon PEDESTAL looked through the
incense-scented gloom ceaselessly for
ward to Nirvana.
The figure, carven originally from
stone, had been so heavily plastered
with gold-leaves by the devout, that
now 1t had all the semblance of being
gold to it's core; and, lavishly deco
rated with necklaces and bracelets of
rare jewels set in crusted gold, in the
evening glow 1t shone like some great
lamp of holiness. Only it's face was
in shadow.
Slowly the light struck higher be-
meath the caves of the pagoda, and
slowly it crept up and vet up, until it's
last blood-red shaft revealed the Bud
dha's forehead and what was set
therein, a monstrous ruby.
The woman gasped family and
chung tightly to her husbands arm.
He held her close, watching the great
stone flame and throb and pulse, like
a pool of living flame swimming in
darkness.
And then the light of the world
went out.
Pensively in the dusk they descend
ed the temple staircase At the foot,
before they remounted their horses,
the woman came to the man and put
her hands upon his shoulders.
"Terence," she said, Il think l am
very weary. Take me home"

searchlight on the junk The scene
it revealed beggared the experience of
man whose trade was fighting; it
fell upon decks slippery with blood
and Uttered with the bodies of dead
and wounded; it silenced a confusion
indescribable. Upon that insane turmoil
the light fell with the effect of thun-
derbolt from a clear sky.
Screaming shrilly in their panic, the
Chinese scattered and fell away, leav-
ing O'Rourke beside Couch, Wheeler
being down and buried beneath three
Chinese corpses. And instantaneously
something grated harshly against the
starboard side of the junk, and a man,
his figure stark black against the cold
white glare, leaped upon the rail and
tumbled inboard. Others to the mum.
Der of dozen followed him, swarm
ing over the decks. Couch reeled to-
wards them, babbling orders and in
structions.
The second launch had arrived.
Sick and faint, O'Rourke slouched
back against the rail, watching with
lack-luster eyes the end of the chap
ter. 1t was simple to the point of
seeming farcical in comparison with
that which preceded it. The dazed and
now outnumbered Chinese offered no
further resistance. Disarmed and put
under guard, they disappeared from
his consciousness. while he watched

Loss Of blood was beginning to tell
upon him; his strength seemed alto

head like a swarm Of gnats. He
grasped his SUPPORT ccnvulsively, be-
ginning to appreciate how seriously
he was hurt. He heard as from a great
distance thin, faint cries of men shout
ing in triumph; saw Couch, pygmy

Of sudden he was conscious of a

Stand by. Wheeler, to stop the motor.
Well drop alongside with the current,
as quietly as we can. Colonel
O'Rourke, will you get forward and
take the boathook and headwarp,
please; I'm needed at the wheel and
Wheeler at the engine until we make
fast"
Cautiously the Irishman rose, took
the boathook Couch offered him, and
crept out upon the narrow triangle of
deck at the bows. Crouching there,
he found the headwarp and waited,
tense with anxious expectancy, star
Ing ahead in futile effort to penetrate
the wide, shadowy reaches of the riv-
er. But the mystical distances con-
fused and eluded him. The launch
seemed to move, painting, in an abyss
of night. She made little noise: a
hiss of water beneath her stem; the
steady humming of the motor, throt-
tied down to half speed the muff1ed
gasping of the exhaust. And present
ly even these ceased at word from
Couch, and the launch moved only
with the tide.
Abruptly towering wall of opaque
black rose out of the darkness to
starboard. O'Rourke braced himself
for the imminent instant of action,
poised so lightly upon his toes and
fingertips that swell from a moving
vessel would have thrown him Off
his balance, perhaps overheard. The
launch closed swiftly and silently in
upon the black wall; it lowered over
him like a cliff; far above he could
see dim divisions between black and
black that must be the rail. And he
shook his head, dismayed; he could
never scale that, he thought; not even
the O'Rourke could accomplish mir
acle. But in a breath it had faded
back, and he realized that the tower
ing poop of the junk had misled him.
They were now alongside at the waist.
He stood up and saw low railing
moving and caught it over the edge of
the rail, drew the launch in, let go the
boathook and, with the headwarp
wrapped about his hand, jumped
blindly.
Something dealt him a vicious, all
but paralysing, blow in the pit of the
stomach; he doubled up, for mo-
ment helpless, across the iunk's rail,
but retained sufficient presence of
mind to hold on to the headwarp.
Then, recovering a trifle, he squirmed
over and fell sprawling upon the deck,
his heels drumming an abrupt and
violent alarm. From somewhere he
heard shrill jabbering arise, with an
ensuing patter of bare feet. Swiftly
he got upon his knees and drew in the
headwarp, with his free hand search
ing along the rail for a cleat Some
thing thumped heavily on the deck be-
side him, and grunted; and something
else followed with a second bump;
and the launch swung outward and,
caught by the current, jerked the
headwarp from his grasp. May the
luck of the O'Rourke still hold!" he
prayed fervently, getting upon his feet
to realize that, with Couch and the
man Wheeler, he was imprisoned
aboard the junk, doomed there to re-

or another OF his companions had
been tackled bodily by one of the
junk's crew. On his own part he
caught a glimpse of shadow moving
ghostllke against one OF the lights,
and promptly exercised it with shot.
By this time the vessel seemed to
be caught in the grip Of pandemon-
ium; shouts and shots Wed with
screams, groans, confused padding
footsteps, to make the moment one OF
a nightmare. The boarding party stood
at bay, not daring to venture from the
spot on which they had landed. firing
steadily but with discretion.
Huddled together like children in
fear OF the powers of darkness, the
three held their fire against the inev-
table assault in FORCE, handicapped
fearfully by their absolute ignorance
of the lay of the deck, of the number
OF their opponents, and of from which
quarter they had to expect the attack.
And the silence and the suspense
wore upon their nerves until the final
struggle came in the shape of boom
to save them from madness. And it
came with rush and WILL cyclonic,
tremendous, overpowering. BY sheer
weight of human flesh the Europeans
were pinned against the rail, fighting
at handgrips with a cruel and cunning
foe far better prepared for such bus.-
ness than they. For at such close
quarters pistols were practically
worthless save as clubs, while knives
could slip to Stay through almost any
interstice, however straitened.
O'Rourke had no time to think of his
companions. Stung to desperation by
the silent, unrelenting fury OF his as
sailants-twice he was conscious of
the white-hot agony of a knife-thrust,
one penetrating the flesh of his side
and scraping his ribs, the other biting
deep into his thigh-he fired until he
had but one cartridge left in his re-
volver, and expended that blowing out
the brains of an extraordinarily per-
sfstent coolie, then dropped the use-
less weapon and trusted to his naked
strength.
1t served him we'll for little. One
man, precipitated by the weight of
those behind him into the adventur-
er's arms, he seized by the throat and
throttled in twinkling; then lifting
him from the deck, he exerted his
power to the utmost, and cast the
body like log into the midst of the
melee. Thus clearing little space he
found himself able to step aside and
