SaTdenly the German uttered chol-
ing cry and dropped, blood squirting
from his throat, where chance bullet
had found him. AS he fell, Mark pre-
clpitated himself upon him and lay
fiat on the ground.
The firing died away. Captain
Mark began to crawl back toward the
parapet of his lines. A whispered chal-
lenge, an answer, aud he had scaled
the sandbags and descended into the
mud of the trench, to find the firing
posts crowded and himself facing Kel-
herman and the company captain.
Inwardly boiling, he stood still. 1t
vas too dark to see the expression on
Kellerman's face, but he could imagine
the sneering grin that disfigured it.
"Well I" said Kellerman sharply.
''The man you sent me to bring In
was dead. He had been there for
days."
where are your companions?" de-
manded Xellerman.
Captured"
"And yOu?"
"We were attacked in the dark. I
fought with my man until a bullet
killed hiTl. The others were taken"
"And your stretcher?" asked Keller
man with n bland sneer..
81 left II between the lines. Do you
wish me to go back for it, sir?"
'This man is lying" said Kellerman
to the Captain calmly. "He abandoned
his companions and ran away. He lost
his stretcher. Put him under arrest"
The Captain beckoned to the pla-
toon sergeant. who came forward.
I'D like to say one thing" said
Mark, striving to keep his voice steady.
I'VE three were sent out to bring In
a dead man, who had been dead for
days-anyone here will bear me out in
this. Was any man wounded tonight?
There was only one body in this Sec
ton"
"Cut 1t out !" said the sergeant, lay
ing his hand on Marks shoulder.
But Mark swung clear of him and
turned and faced Kellerman again.
"YOu sent me out tonight to put me
out of the way!" he cried, losing all
self-control. "For reasons that you
know, and 1 know, you wanted me
dead, and you were willing to send two
others to their death also. You lied
to me to put me Off my guard, ID
you, you treacherous dog And here's
the blow you gave, back again !"
He struck Kellerman a buffet that
sent him Keeling back against the par
apet.

CHAPTER XIV.

The three officers who had brought
in their verdict, and the fourth, of
high rank, who had passed the SEN
tence, stood rather stiffly at the door
of the little headquarters village house,
watching Mark as, with hands chained,
he was marched away by two armed
guards toward the Jail.
When he was out of sight they I'M
bent.
Oh It'll" said one.

'What do you think, McINinnon|
81 don't want to think about it,"
"If it had been some tough who had
got roped into the army-a gunman or
that sOrt--but-"
"Well, if the fellows q gentleman,
why did he do it? He must have
known"
"And, after all, he might have been
respited for the blow, but the gross
cowardice-"
81 don't see that. The blow was
worse than the cowardlce. A new
baud, between the lines at night, his
firN aight-Kellerman shouldn't have
sent him"
Il don't follow you there. Kellerman
had knOwH the man in the U. S. and
wanted to give him chance to redeem
himself"
At nightfall Mark was sitting in bis
cell He had eaten, he had composed
himself TO meet his end according TO
the traditions of his caste and race !;
but he could not meet it calmly. He
had deliberately flung everything
away; he had let Kellerman goad
him to madness; he was going TO
die without even the soldiers salts
faction of duty honorably done. And
he could not compose himself.
Suddenly he heard the outer gate of
the prison click; then came the sound
Of voices, footsteps, woman's swish
ing skirts; Eleanor and Colonel How
ard stood at the barred entrance with
the guard.
Mark rose from his bed and stood
staring at them; he could hardly be-
lieve them real. The guard unlocked
the door of the cell. Eleanor shrank
back against the corner of the ma
sonry, her kerchief to her lip, her face
challSy white. Suddenly she started
forward. The Colonel whispered a
word, she brushed him aside as IL she
had not heard him. Her arms sought
Marks neck and found it. She pressed
hsr lips to his.

EAGLE ALWAYS AN EMBLEM
From NEUROLOGICAL Times the Monarch
of the Air Has Been Chosen as
Representative of Power.

In mythology the eagle usually rep
resents the sun. The great mythical
eagle of India, the Garuda, is the
bearer of the god Vishnu, victorious
by his brightness over all demons. In
scandinavian mythology the eagle is a
gloomy figure, assumed by demons of
darkness or by Odin himself, con-
cealed In the gloomy night or in wind
swept clouds. The storm giant Hras-
weigr sits in the form of an eagle at
the extremity of heaven and blows
blasts over all people and on the great
tree Yggdrasil sits an eagle observing
everything that happens. When Zeus
was preparing for his struggle with
the Titans the eagle brought him
thunderbolt, whereupon the god took
the bird for his emblem. It naturally
became the emblem of nations after
