was the rose.
There was no one but himself in

breath rustled in his parched throat
like wind whispering among dead
leaves.

the woman knelt in his place by
Alan's head.

In ten minutes she said. these

She stepped back. Jacob advanced,
picked Alan up. shouldered his body,
and strobe back into the forest. Ten
feet in from the clearing he dropped
the helpless man supine upon bed of
dry logs and branches.
Then. with single movement. he

CHAPTER I.
The Message of the Rose.

The Message OF the Rose.
Tapped deep in the leather-bound
luxury of an ample lounge-chair
walled apart from the world by the
venerable solitude of the library OF
London's most exclusive club, Mr..
Alan Law sprawled largely on the
nape of his neck) and, squirting dis
contentedly down his nose, admitted
that he was exhaustively bored.
Now the chair filed so gracelessly
stood by an open window, some TWEEN
ty feet below which lay a stable
walled garden, an old English garden
in full flower. And through the win
dow, now and then, a half-hearteG
breeze waited gusts of warm air
sauve and enervating with the heavy
fragrance of English roses.
Mr.. Law drank deep of it, and II
spite Of his spiritual unrest, sighed
slightly and shut his eyes.
An unspoken word troubled the
depth of his consciousness, so that
old memories stirred and struggled tc
its surface. The word was "Rose,'
and for the time seemed to be the
name neither of a woman nor of 9
flower, but oddly Of both, as though
the two things were one. His mental
vision, bridging the gap of year, con
jured up the vision of a 1.-THE, sweet
silhouette in white, with red roses
at her belt, posed on terrace of the
Riviera against the burning Mediter.
ranean blue.
Mr.. Law was duly conscious thai
he ought to be sorry about something
But he was really very drowsy indeed;
and SO, drinking deep of wine-scent
of roses, he fell gently asleep. -.
The clock was striking four when
he awoke; and before closing his
eyes he had noticed that its hands
indicated ten minutes to four. So he
could not have slept very long.
For some few seconds Alan did not
move, but rested as he was, incredu.
lously regarding rose which had ma,
terialized mysteriously upon the little
table at his elbow. He was quite sure
1t had not been there when he closed
his eyes, and almost as sure that Il
was not real
And in that instant of awakening
the magic fragrance of the rose-garden
seemed to be even more strong and
cloying sweet than ever.
Then he put out gingerly hand
and discovered that it was real beyond
all question. A warm red rose, fresh.
plucked, drops Of water trembling and
sparkling like tiny diamonds on the
velvet Of its feshy petals. And when
impulsively he took it by the stem, he
discovered a most indisputable thorn
which did service for the traditional
pinch.
Convinced that he wasn't dreaming,
Alan transferred the rose to his sound
hand, and meditatively sucked his

and sawed the cords round his wrists

z Before Alan could turn and run he
saw q vanguard Of flames bridge so

And then he was pelting like mad

Overhead, through a rift in the

darkness called to mind a thunder

The heat was nearly intolerable;
the voice of the fire was very loud.
A heavy, broken crashing near by
made Alan turn his head, and he saw
