:: Loves Journey ::

picked her up and placed her in the
shade. Two unknown men were sit
ting at her side tanning her hot fore
head. The fans looked like two gigan-
tic blue butterflies The beautiful white
silk dress she had put on to meet her
husband was dirty. She asked the men
where they came from. Both were from
Kobe, but they did not know her hus-
band. Then they left and All was again
alone
She began to walk along slowly.
for she was still very dizzy and faint.
Evening came with a cool breeze
from the fragrant meadows. which were
hidden under a veil of white mist as
the sun went down behind the distant
hills
on the dark sky arose the bright cres-
cent Of the moon and AIS heart swelled
with confidence and new courage. She
suddenly knew that before midnight his
arms should be around her and she
should feel the kiss Of his lips She
felt that he had been delayed and was
speeding along to meet her.
Now the lights Of the city were quite
close and soon she passed through the
first streets. A porter showed her the
house where her husband was living.
Her heart was in her throat and she
stood long hesitating in the darkness,
before she entered. A dark figure arose
from a mathis servant. He bowed to
the strange woman, but would not tell
her where his master was, She threat
ened him that she would have him dis

she was mistress Of the house and that
her husband was expecting her. Then
The man retired to his corner and re-
mained silent. Al began to despair
what was happening here7 She tried
everything. but the man remained as
silent as ever.
Her Despair.
Al left the house, threw herself on
the ground and burst into sobs. as II
her heart were breaking. The wife Of
a neighbor came out and raised her
up. She led her through a maze Of
streets until at last she stopped out
side a house with a gaily-colored lam
tern.
Your husband is in there" she said
and left her
Al looked at the long row Of Ian
terms in all colors, one outside each
house, and she knew she was in the
street Of the geishas, and broke down
completely. Had not her husband pos
sessed the key to her heart! The tears
streamed down her cheeks as she I'M
deystood where her husband had spent
-I these long days, and why he had
not thought of her sufferings.
Then she heard his voice She found
a small crack in the lattice, through
which she looked into the house, and
she felt as if a thousand arrows pierced
her chest. She wanted to cry, but could
whisper only a soft "Sayonora" Good
bye), and a little knife, guided by a
firm hand, found its way to her heart.
The sound of her falling was heard
inside the house. A wall opened and
man came out He stopped down and
looked at the PROSTATE figure.
Then by the light of the moon she
saw his beloved eyes and felt his warm
breath Ike a kiss.
IT is l." she whispered with sweet
smile, forgive me-

TIME express train came up and tht
fraH little bamboo station trem-
bled
A delicate little woman descended
from one of the cars and looked about
like a scared bird. The platform was
empty. a shadow of disappointment few
/ across her face, but then she smiled
for, of course, she knew he must be
waiting outside in the street But, alas
the street was empty, too.
The sun spread its dazzling light or
the white dust, and the only sound to
be heard was the shrill music Of the
grasshoppers in the meadow.
Al trembled. She had written TO her
husband
Honorable Master
u have taken courage TO write you
this letter For many months you have
stayed away from your home, away
from your Al, who every day asks the
clouds for news about you, but the
clouds answer her not Then 1 wan
dered like an humble pilgrim TO the
summit Of Dakeyama to pray that you
might return home soon. You have not
come back yet, and still l know you
are alive, for your soul has not touched
the food l placed before your image
every day.
You are in Kobe. oh honorable, but
you must have finished your business
there long ago and surely you can not
care for the amusements there when
you know that your Al Is dying with
the pain Of longing for you
Therefore, forgive me when I come.
Forgive, oh honorable, the ugly impa-
thence which compels me to go to you,
but l can no longer sleep nights when
the moon rises over the top Of Fuyi.
am sick with yearning for you.
when you get this letter I shall be in
Kobe at l o'clock the following day,
your loving and pining, ~
She knew that the letter must be In
his hands, and still he had not come TO
meet her, nor had he sent servant
with a rickshaw In the burning sun
she started to walk The city was far
away but she walked ahead bravely
though the stones hurt her feet so much
that time and again she had TO SIT
down and rest The heat grew more
and more oppressive All sprang up,
she could not spend ali dav on the road
and she walked faster than ever think
ing Of him all the time with fear IN her
heart.

protested the maid. The Princess ig-
nored this last and glanced toward the
door.
Where is Mr.. Warren?"
He is still talking with the driver"
Tell him I will be down directly"
Il will tell the senior, Your Highness, q"
Dolores assured her, with a courtesy.
1t was a mission that overioyed the
girl. The men of the village still wait
ed 70 see the stranger after the lady
and her maid had gone upstairs, es-
corted by the innkeeper. Dolores want
ed the savage joy Of introducing him
to the assemblage. And when he en-
tered, she did it in these words, meant
only for the ears of her townsmen:
"Gentlemen-a mani"
The Spanish Warren had learned from
the maternal side of the house stood
him in good stead, and under the tute-
lage of the Princess he improved rapid
ly on the voyage over. He also
learned lot of other things and taught
several important matters to his liege
lady, While the exalted cousin gloweTed
in the background.
SO it was that he caught the girls
words and smiled.
did you address me, senorita?"
Dolores flushed but threw back her
head and gazed at him with sparkling
eyes.
Il called the attention of these val
liant gentlemen of Segura," she said
loudly. TO the only man who dares
enter the castle"
Warren was MILDLY surprised How

Warren shrugged his shoulders indif-
ferenuy and was just turning to say
something to Rusty, who was guarding
their luggage and eying the Chivalry
Of Segura with every mark of disfavor,
when Don Robledo strobe up TO him,
the other men falling back hastily to
give him room.
He thrust his evil face so close TO
Warren's that the young man drew
back a trifle. Don RObledo noted the
movement, misunderstood it, and
sneered.

Your Excellency, leave him to me.
I'll give this adventurous Yankee the
most excellent reasons TO change his

Sits. Il can assure Your ENCellenCy
that I will convince this American that
his presence in the castle tonight or
AZ any other time is quite unnecessary.

A Picture.

What had happened to him? Why did
he stay away from her?
Suddenly she imagined she saw him
dying He lay stretched out on mat
with convulsed features, and could not
die until he had seen his All again. And
she had been weak given in to her
pain and rested on the way. She had
taken upon herself the awful response
bnity of delaying his soul, chat was
eager to get away from earth.
She shuddered. There was a strange
noise in her ears, and suddenly the
yellow grain fields began TO turn red
as blood and move up and down as
with an earthquake. The rice fields
burst into flames, and everything
turned bri-ht yellow. The woods
came rushing at her and, like a huge
orange, the sun dropped down on the
road
When All opened her eyes she was
lying at the roadside. Somebody had

Warren looked him over with the ut
most composure and good humor.
I'm an American" he smiled. Then
with a broader grin he indicated Rus
ty: We're both Americans"
! Don Robledos forbidding face grew
darker.
And you both want to dIe?"
Rusty nearly fell over the baggage
and rolled his eyes apprehensively.

Better keep out Of the castle then."

Mo- snarled Don Robledo His lips
Curled back like a VOLTS from his big

whip with both hands. Then he turned
to Dolores, his manner as offensive as
he could make il, and cried:

addressed him when they were left

The girl drew close 10 him and
dropped her voice to a low undertone.
