The Gates Of Paradise.

Once in year and at one place In
the world there Is crush that sur
passes anything else of its kind in the
world. 1t Is the great fair of Bawa
Farid which is annually held in the
town Of PAX Pattan, in British India.
1t is held in honor of the famous st
Farid I'd Din. surnamed Shakar CAM,
or sugar store, from the fact that his
body had become so pure by continual
fasting that whatever was put into his
mouth. even earth and stones. was in
stantly changed into sugar. The prln-
cipal ceremony consists of passing
through an opening made in a wall ad-
Joining the shrine measuring 5 by pa
feet and always fervently called "the
gates of paradise" Whoever between
noon and night is able to pass through
this opening is assured of paradise,
and when there are $4,000 striving to
pass through at the same time the
crush Is something terrific. Women
faint, bones are broken, and the heat
Is sitting.

Paul curiously. Mote them well, Mr..
Lane. for this is, to all intent, a dress
rehearsal of the ceremony"
Paul leaned back in his chair and
stretched out his limbs luxuriously.
All sense of strangeness had depart
ed; he felt only blissful ease, min
gled with which was a sense Of
utter peace, as though all his fears and
indecisions had yielded to the knowl-
edge of some secret power within him
which made success a certainty. He
looked into the glass.
He saw the white city of tents, the
gathering spectators. How real they
appeared! He could even distinguish
the expressions of amazed reverence
and excitement as the elephants slow
ly numbered past, each with it's ma
bout, and each clothed in trappings of
silk and gold, with silver tips upon
its massive tusks. Through the long
lanes of people they passed, followed
by camels; then horsemen rode,
white-turbaned, black of beard, very
sedate and dignified. There were car
riages of silver and artillery of the
same metal, plated with gold. Dust
rose into the air and the hot MONDAY
sun cast shadows over the crystal
ball, exactly as though Paul stood in
the sun and watched among the spec
tators. And this, indeed, he might
have done, for now he was no longer
conscious Of the room or of the astrol-
oyer and the secretary and the sleep
ing Jam, and the ball itself had ex-
banded into a dome, as of the sky.
The professions passed before his
eyes, coming into perspective as

though these figures were those in q
moving picture show. And in all this
there was no atom Of unreality, save
that he felt constrained and as If
gagged. He was impotent among
these crowds, a passive spectator, un-
able to move or stir.
He was one of the procession now
and following among the long line Of
watchers. A company of soldiers
flashed into sight; white-turbaned
Sikhs, with curled boards, spotlessly
clad, holding their rifles suddenly to
the attention as a mounted general
rode past. He bore some message,
evidently, for thrill seemed to pass
through the crowd, and then-then, in
cloud of dust, preceded by mounted
men and followed by a whole coterie
of attendants, King George and Queen
Mary passed in their carriage, while
deafening acclamations rent the air.
Darkness! The scene had changed
AS in the picture show, when new
film passes before the rays, so this
new scene flashed into clear precision
before Paul's eyes. He was seated, as
he had arranged to sit, upon the top
most tier of the great amphitheater of
wooden benches that rose from the
ground opposite the pavilion in which
the coronation was to occur. Around
him were thousands upon thousands,
all waiting in deep silence for the
final act of the great ceremony. The
king was crowned, with his consort.
and they awaited the approach of the
feudal princes to pledge their loyalty.
And slowly up the dusty carpet-decked

before these rulers Of alien race and,
placing their hands upon their hearts,
they vowed submission.
Suddenly Paul became aware that

His mind rushed back through a fog

portend? This handkerchief-did not
an empire hang upon the fall Of it?
