The treasure room, guarded by

keepers, was now approached by Um-

Umballa presented his order on the
treasury. The leopards were driven
into their cages, and the magic door
swung open. The two gasped for
breath; for Umballa had never before
looked within. Everywhere gold and
gems; fabulous riches, enough to
make a man ten times a king.
'Highness," whispered the captain.

As he stared Umballa surrended to a
passing dream Presently he shook
himself, sought the chain for which
he had come, and reluctantly stepped
out into the corridor again. He
would return soon to this door But
for that fool of a white man who had
saved the king from the leopard he
would have opened this door long

door he thought briefly of the beauty

NEW LUNCHEON CLOTH IDEA
Cut in the Form of a Greek Cloth Is
the Latest Idea-Doilies to Go
With It.

The luncheon cloth that is appar-
emily two crossed runners of linen is
now we'll known. From this idea,
however, has been evolved one that
is even more attractive, that of the
Greek cross, Instead of being cut in
two oblong strips and then crossed,
The linen is cut in one and in the
form of the Greek cross. So that the
surface of the cloth win not be too
solid, insert medallions OF cutwork
or lace or drawnwork. Even strips
Of lace insertion will relieve the solid
surface. A plain edging Of cluny,
torchon or coronation crochet may
edge the cloth, or, IL you wish the
cloth still more elaborate, place an
insertion of the lace within an inch
from the edge. The insertion, of
course, should match the edge. If you
wish to complete the set, make four
bare places that are left when the
cloth is spread upon the table. These

Bruce wiped the sweat from his

Now, when Umballa and his captain
of the guard departed with the be-
trothal chain they did not firmly close
the outer door, which shut off the
leopards from the main palace. The
leopards were Immediately freed and
began their prowling through the cor

scented the air through which the two
men had just passed. One paused by
the door, impatiently thrusting out

In the throne room the mockery of
the betrothal was gone through, and

ceremony was done, vigilance would

Flowers on Iceberss.

Flowers blooming on icebergs would
certainly be rare sight, but travellers
in the northern portions of the Pa
cific and sometimes in the North At
lantic have witnessed this strange but
very beautiful spectacle. 1t appears
that some animals carry on their feet
a growth of moss, which is deposited
on the ice while it is attached to the
mainland in polar regions. In time this
decays and forms a shallow soil, in
which the seeds of buttercups and
dandelions often find lodging, borne
by currents of wind that doubtless
caught them up in some southern
cline, These take root and bloom
when the great cleaning iceberg floats
out to sea and is carried southwark,
where the soft winds melt the surface
and give the plants the moisture they
need.

case In which all the requisites for a
moderate amount OF correspondence

structed with the aid OF a strong

TO make It, the front Of the box is
removed and the exterior smoothly
covered with thin silk, the material
being turned over at the edges and
underneath and fastened on with sec
cotine or some other strong adhesive
Inside, the sides and the bottom of
the box are lined in a like manner
and bands of broad white elastic are
fastened across the center on either
side. These are nailed down at in
tervals with small brass-headed nails
and form a series Of loops into which
scissors, sealingwaX, pencils, etc, may
be slipped and held In place. At the
back OF the box a number Of pockets
are arranged a large one for note

cards and envelopes and two tiny
pockets for postage stamps. These
pockets are bound at tie edges with
narrow ribbon Fastened with brass
head nails across the inner side Of

elastic under which papers and letters
may be slipped in the manner shown

Along the edge Of the lid, also fast
