CHAPTER xIx-continued.

When Lal Singh staggered into the
house of Ramabai, holding his side in
mortal agony, dying, Kathlyn felt the
recurrence Of that strange duality
which she had first known in the
Temple of the Lion.
I'VE have failed" whispered Lal
Singh, "The palace soldiers betrayed
us! All are prisoners, shortly to be
shot. Food and water there!
Fly!" And thus Lal Singh
gave up his cobbler's booth.
As in dream Kathlyn ran from the
house into the street Winnie would
have followed. but Pundita clung to
her, refusing to let her go. The stony
look in Kathlyn's eyes had warned
Pundita Of the futility of trying to
coerce her.
With the sun breathing in lances Of
light against the ancient chair armor,
her golden hair flying behind her like
a cloud, on, on Kathlyn ran, never
stumbling, never faltering, till she
came out into the square before the
palace. Like an Amazon of old she
called to the scattering revolutionists,
called, harangued. smothered them
under her scorn and contempt, and
finally reused them to frenzy. She
became again in their eyes the white
goddess whom no beast nor trap could
harm; and they would have gone to
the gates of hell at word from her.
And many did.
In her madness Kathlyn turned the
tide; and when her fathers arm closed
round her she sank insensible upon
his breast.

had apparently come to an end. For
Ahmed loved the white goddess even
as you and love life. He was brave,
but as the serpent is-wisely. Did not

his breast because he was wise as well
as brave"

throat.

thirsty" he observed. ITO go on. So
there we were, like sheep. The ma
jority of us did not have sense enough
to run away. Huzoor, Umballa had
lined up the white men and Ramabai
against the wall in the throne room
and was about to send them to their
gods, when suddenly l noticed COM
motion in the rear of us. We we're
thrown about like sticks in a whirl-
pool.
And then saw her! Ah, protector
of the poor, you white people rule the
world because you always know what
you want and when you want it. But
it Is not natural for us brown people
to think and act quickly at the same
time. l saw her; and thought at first
that the gates of paradise had opened
and Allah himself had set her down
among us!"

the pipe and a thin stream of smoke
trickles from his bearded lips. You
must have patience, for he will tell
this tale only in his own fashion.
Straight to the palace steps she
ran, waving her arms. Behold! She
spoke to us in her own tongue, but
Allah Is witness that we understood
what she was saying First we grew
ashamed, then we stopped running,
then we became men, huzoor. The
lead tubes began to speak again; and
we, too, found our voices. With yells
we followed And there was battle,
battle, battle to the very foot of the
throne.
"She threw herself between the lev
eled guns and her people. The sol
diers could not fire. And Umballa,
seeing that in truth he had lost this
time-Umballa fled toward the corri-
dors, and none was quick enough to
prevent him.
But we went shouting after him,
through this corridor and that. We
could not find him. 1t seems he es-
capped through one of the chambers in
the zenana."

grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to flush and stimulate the
kidneys, also to neutralize the acids

yet. We've got to find Umballa and
lock him up. When that's done Ill be

Il believe 1t is as Ahmed says: we'll
all pull out of this safely In the end.
Now, let's go and get the nets. There
will not be dozen men in the whole

A Goddess In Armor.


They tell Of 1t to this day in Alfalfa.
To be sure. they will elaborate and
r=evarlcate, twist and distort, as only
the Asiatic knows how, having an in
nate horror of brevity and directness;
but the basic truth of Kathlyn's ex-
ploit Is held intact. The hoary old
beggar who sits with his beggar's
bowl near the steps Of the mosque,
loquacious, verbose, and f1owery, for
an 8-anna piece will tell you the tale,
which happened all of 80 years ago.
Thanks, huzoor!" he will begin,
carefully scrutinizing the coin and
testing Its solidity between two fine
rows of teeth for man of seventy.
"Ah, that was day! 1t was like
day l knew in Delhi, when | was
child; for ! saw the great Mutiny. |
saw the powder magazine. All,
yes, huzoor; 1t is about the white god.
dess that you wish to- know But help
me over to Ais coffee house, for 1t is
hot here, and 1t is long story"
So you take the old rascal over to
and seat him under the umbrellas of
ALI, and you will buy him a sugar
drink and smoke from a water bot
tie. he having brought forth sugges-
lively a cracked amber mouthpiece.
"Huzoor, she came out of nowhere,
in chain armor that shone like rip
pling water in the sunshine. She was
tall and 1.-the and vigorous, and as
beautiful as dream of paradise.
When we saw the sahibs and Ra
mabai trapped by the cowardly sol
diers of the palace we found ourselves
without head. The men who led us
had vanished We huddled like sheep
scattered, formed. fired aimlessly, be
gan to run away. And brave La
Singh, with bullet through his stom
ach, staggered Off We we're without
hope. We were brave enough, bu
bravery has to be directed. We knew
only part Of RaIaabai's plans"
And what about this man Ahmed?'
'As the kite flies, he ran back to tn,
