until YOU prove which is the drawer"
But how shall / find OUT" asked
the King. There is no battle for
them to go into, no dangers to face"
Leave that to me If you wish 70
know the truth about your sons, said
the Witch. BY midnight tonight you
shall learn the truth and decide which
son shall become King after you"
With this promise the King had to
be content, for though ne was 8 King
he dared not command a witch with
magic power 10 do more thsn she Of
fered 10 do. And so with his train OF
servants the King returned 10 his Pal
ace wondering IN what strange man
ncr the old Witch would show HIM upon
which head he should place the crown
That night when the Palace. was
still and all were asleep, through the
clouds came the old witch on her
magic broomstick. Flying down into
the garden Of the Palace she placed
the broomstick under a n overhanglns
rock by the river which ran through
the garden.
Then taking her black cat she be.
gan a wild dance around the Palace
scattering q magic powder as she went.
In q few minutes the Palace seemed
TO be in flames and out rushed the
frightened servants and with then
Prince Harmon and Prince Seglar.
The King, the King" cried some
n Who viii save the King"
All the servants ran toward th'
river to escape the flames and Prince
Harmon, though big and strong raj
with them. But his brother, Primes
Seglar, wrapping his cloak about hi
head, dashed through the fire and int
the Palace to save his father.
When the King, led by Prince Seq
lar, came out of the Palace the fir
had disappeared and as he stood rub
bling his eyes and wondering wher,
everyone had gone, the old Witcl
hobbled up 10 him.
Your Majesty" she said, "the BIZ
and strong are not always brave
Prince Harmon ran TO a place Of safet.
with your sevants and left you il
danger, but your weakling son was brav
enough 10 risk his life 10 rescue hi
father. Which shall be King?"
Before he could answer her thu
Witch was sailing away on her broom
stick far above his head, but the Kin
heard her cackling laugh and hearc
her call out: "The strongest are no
always the bravest; long live brav
Prince Seglar."

Of horrors which more enlightened pco-
pie do not even guess at. In Katie's
case, l think her belief is particularly
strong--shc's the queerest combination
of acquired new-world mannerisms and
old-world superstitions / ever saw. OF
course, this mar in the hospital is some
countryman of hers, but he must have
known her very we'll to be able to play
upon her fears and brighten her the way
he has done. And yet she will not nd
init to me that she ever saw him before
he came to this section. There's q link
or two in the chain Of her actions that
l haven't yet in my hands"
She paused looking Mt me in carefully
casual fashion. / knew that shc would
not ask me outright whether l had any
knowledge or suspicion Of the identity
of the man who had 8 frightened my
little maid, but the question lay be-
tween us, nevertheless, and l answered
it rs If she had uttered it.
Il have no real knowledge either" l
said, though l have q theory. But it
is based upon a confidence which Katie
gave me years ago, and which / do not
feel justified in revealing without her
consent"
Marking Time.
81 Thought as much" Lillian returned.
well, it doesn't 80 much matter Just
now, although l shall need the knowl-
edge later. But she told me enough
to enable me to get q pretty straight
line on the gifted gentleman. 1t looks
right now like a lovely party with
plenty of jazz, when things begin to
move, rs they will when the real dusky
gentleman in the wood-pile cautiously
puts his head out and looks wei the
prospect"
She put her lovely arms above her
head, stretching herself as might a
weary tigress. 1t WAS not the first time
l had marked Just a suggestion of the
jungle feline in my friend when she is
engaged in solving a problem for the
government. Ordinarily the most frank,
open-hearted and generous of women
Lillian becomes transformed into ome
thing powerful, cunning, relentless when
she is working for the downfall Of those
who mean harm 10 the country she wor-
ships.
And then, with the swift relaxation,
the letting down which always bewil-
ders me, she lowered her arms. came
over to me and clappcd me on the
shoulder.
Nothing to do till tomorrow" she
chanted. in other words, we can only
mark time now and await develop
ments. So, after those government OPP
e~ratives get here this afternoon and |
see them, I'm at your service for any
little devotion your heart desires. !

THE REASON KATIE TOLD
LILLIAN AND NOT MADGE

There was such emotional earnest
ness in Lillsan's tone as she spoke I
Katic's grit and sacrifice" that began
10 have a dim comprehension of the
reason for my little maids choice OF a
confdant.
"You m~ean--"I questioned, hesitat-
Sg. ny.
II mcan," Lillian answered, that
Katie fully expects to have the most
awful things imaginable happen to her
because she broke her swear and that
the rcason she wouldn't conhde in you,
but chose me instead, is because the
ahysmal brute who made her lake the,
oath extended his maledictions TO m
cludc the person whom she should tell.
And | really believe the old meiodrama
spiel is true IN katie's case. She would
die before she would let harm come to
you. But l never saw such ablect fear
such certainty of evil TO come, as that
poor girl displayed Just now .
| sat down quickly in the nearest
chair, shaken aghast at this revelation
Of suffering and sacrifice upon the part
Of my devoted little maid.
1T gets YOU, too, doesn't it, she
commented IL don't mind telling you
that sho pretty nearly bowled me over.
and YOU know I'm not very strong on
the teary-lash thing. But there was
something mighty admirable and pltiful.
