HAS TO DRAW ON ENGLAND
France Feeling the Scarcity Of Coal
Consequent on the German Con-
troll Of the Mines.

France Is now compelled to call on
England for coal, which was formerly
mined in the north of France. Practi-
cally all'the mines in that district have
either been destroyed by the German
artillery or are being operated by Ger
mans. At Levin and Courrieres the
German army is carrying on extern
sive mining operations and producing
great quantities Of coal, which are
being shipped into Belgium for the
use of the German military forces.
France is no longer able to draw
coal from Mons and Charleroi, which
formerly supplied large quantities for
expectation. Consequently. the resi-
dents of northern France are largely
dependent upon English mines for
coal, which has become very scarce.
frequently towns and villages near
the fighting lines are entirely with
out coal for week. This works
great hardship on hospitals. sadly in
need of the fuel for hundreds Of thou

CHAPTER xl.
A Sacred Trust.

His eyes had grown accustomed to
the glare Of the beautiful sands, but
his sense Of beauty was never satisfied
with looking at the desert picture and
drinking in the glory and the lowell
ness of the melancholy waste. Stand
ing in the door of his tent in fatigue
uniform. he said to Pitchoune:
I could be perfectly happy here if
| were not alone"
Pftchoune barked. He had not
grown accustomed to the desert He
hSted It,. 1t slipped away from under
his little feet: he could not run on it
with any comfort. He spent his days
idly in his masters tent or royalty
perched on a camel. crouching close
to Sabron's man servant when they
went on caravan explorations.
Yes" said Sabron. 'if were not
alone. | don't mean you, mon vieux.
You are great deal. but you really
don't count. you know"
Before his eyes the sands were as
pink as countless rose leaves To
Sabron they were as fragrant as flow
ers. The peculiar incenselike odor
that hovers above the desert when the
sun declines was to him the most de-
licious thing he had ever inhaled. All
the west was as red as fire. The day
had been hot and there came up the
cool breeze that would give them a de-
licious night. Overhead. one by one,
he watched the blossoming out of the
great stars; each one hung above his
lonely tent like bridal flower in a
veil Of blue. On all sides. like white
petals on the desert face. were the
tents of>his men and his officers, and
from the encampment came the hum
OF military life. yet the silence to him
was profound. He had only to order
his stallion saddled and toride away
for a little distance in order to be
alone with the absolute stiffness.
This he often did and took his
thoughts with him and came back to
his tent more conscious of his solitude
every night Of his life.
There had been much looting of car
avans in the region by brigands, and
his business was that of sentinel for
the commerce of the plains. Thieving
and rapacious tribes were under his
eye and his care. Tonight. as he stood
looking toward the west into the glow
shading his eyes with his hand, he saw
coming toward them what he knew to
be a caravan from Algiers. His ordon-
nance was native soldier one of the
desert tribes. black as ink, and scarce
ly more childlike than Brunei and pre-
sumably as devoted
"Mustapha." Sabron ordered, fetch
me out a lounge chair" He spoke in
French and pointed. for the man un-
