CHAPTER TX.
The Bitter Fruit,

he DlLIEF Fruit
Fortune had a hearty contempt for
persons who ate their breakfast in
bed. For her the glory of the day was
the fresh fairness of the morning,
when every ones step was buoyant,
and all life stirred theoretically. There
was cheer and hope everywhere; men
faced their labors with clear eye and
feared nothing; women sang at their
work. It was only at the close of day
that despair and defeat stalked the
highways. So she was up with the
sun, whether in her own garden or in
these odd and mystical cities. Thus
she saw the native as he was, not as
he later in the day pretended to be,
for the benefit of the Feringhi about
to be stretched upon the sacrificial
stone. She saw, with gladness, the
honey-bee Thrilling the rose, the plow
mans share barring the soil; the morn
ing, the morning, the two or three
hours that were all, all her own. Her
mother was always irritable and petu-
liant in the morning, and her uncle
never developed the gift of speech till
after luncheon.
She had the same love of prowling
that lured Ryanne from the beaten
paths. She was not inquisitive but
curious, and that ready disarming
smile Of hers opened many portal.
She was balancing upon her gloyed
palm, thoughtfully, Soudanese head
trinket, pendant of twisted gold
wires, f1awed emeralds and second
pearls, really exquisite and not gen
orally to be found outside the eXpen-
sive shops in the European quarters,
and there infrequently. The merchant
wanted twenty pounds for it. Fortune
shook her head, regretfully. 1t was
far beyond her means. She sighed.
Only once in a great while she saw
something for which her whole heart
cried ous. This pendant was one of
these.
Il will give you five pounds for it.
That is all have with me-"
"Salaam, madam ~ said the jeweler,
reaching for the pendant.
eff you will send it to the Hotel Sc
miramis this afternoon :" But
she IdlI6FGQ at the S1SnL OF the 1QST-
chants incredulous smile.
"I1l give you ten for it; not a pias-
ire more. l can get one like it in the
Sharia Kamel for that amount"
Both Fortune and the merchant
turned.

Eyes, my child. And what are you
doing here alone, without drago-
MANI"
ooh, have been through here alone
many times. I'm not afraid. Isn't it
beautiful? He wants twenty pounds
for it, and l cannot afford that"
She had not seen him in many
weeks, yet she accepted his sudden ap-
pearance without question or surprise.
She was used to his turning up at un-
expected moments. Of course, she
had known that he was in Cairo;
where her mother and uncle were this
secretive man was generally within
calling. There had been time when
she had eagerly piled him with ques-
tions, but he had always erected bar
riers of evasion, and finally she ceased
her opportunities, for she concluded
that her questions were such. No mat

was such as he had not known in
many days. The merchant wisely hur'

MAGMA REVA AGAIN SAILS.
Vessel Has Had History Marked by
Adventure.

Under the command of new officers and
with new crew aboard, the American
DARK Magma Reva, which returned to the
delaware breakwater about two weeks
ago with mutiny on board, has again
sailed with her cargo of coal for the
racine coast. That the Magma Reva is
one of the few vessels under the Amer
ican flag aboard which a mutiny has oc-
Cured Is but a small incident In the his
tory of the vessel. She was built at
Leith. Scotland, in 1891, and. named the
Pyrenees, was under the British flag.
Ihe change in her name and her going
under the American flag was brought
ABOUT by the vessel being abandoned and
anre on coral reef in the south Pacific
and her purchase by an American, whose
PLUCK and enterprise brought the vessel
TO shipyard. where she was put in con-
dftion for service. Bound in 1900 from
Tacoma, Wash, to Scotland, with grain
which had been loaded damp, a fire start
ed in her cargo and soon reached dan
gerous proportions. Pitcairn Island was
reached by the burning bark, but as there
was no place there to beach the vessel,
she was sailed to Magma ReVa Island,
nearly 800 miles away. There she was
beached and stripped of everything of
value, and her crew were taken back
to civilization by French fishing vessel
Later the huk of the vessel was pur-
chased by Capt I. E. Thayer of San
Francisco. who. after many difficulties.
succeeded in floating the hulk and taking
II, without decks, to Tahiti, where tenn
porary decks were placed on her. The
bark was then taken to San Francisco
where she was repaired. given American
registry and renamed after the island on
which she stranded.

chimes were constructed and placed in
operation in the Office of the treasurer
of the United States and the offices of
the several assistant treasurers, during
the year, for laundering for reissue all

operation in its place. One machine was
put IN each or the offices of assistant

SYSTEM Of STANDARD
PUBLIC BUILDINGS
Suggestions for These Struc.
lures to Be Made Shortly
to Congress.

Congress shortly will have an opportu-
nifty to digest some suggestions, made in
accordance with its own command. for a
reduction in government expenses by the
adoption OF standard system for public
buildings. Treasury officials have been
at work for several months on a prelimi-
nary report to the public building COM
mission, authorized by Congress and COM
posed Of the Secretary of the Treasury,
the Postmaster General and the Attorney
General and two members of the Senate
and House committees in charge of public
buildings.
The commission was created to work
out and approve some system by which a
standard could be formed for public
buildings, SO that cities of certain size
should get a prescribed size of buildings.
BY its adoption, 1t was argued, the neces-
sity for drawing plans for every new
building would be eliminated, the expense
of the upkeep of the supervising archi-
tect's Office would be lessened and the ac-
