in the rear. Ruthless and deter,
mined, he had set his face against
It. The army shold be ceibate.
And he had broken and elbowed out
the men who would cucumber them
sel,as with loving kcczs.
Wei, he had lived by the rule
himself. There had been no women
about him on the frontiers of the
Empire! When he came, now and
! then, to London, the current Of life
in which they moved failed to touch
him. They were creatures apart.
lie knew of them only what APP
pcared before The eye. And, while
he saw the beauty which they as
sembled, he saw also the thousand
tollies that seemed to give them
pleasure, and he wondered in what
mysterious charm lay their appalling
influence on his soldiers.
And on this evening, alone in this
mysterious city, he began to be as
sailed by q curious consuming won
der. He began to doubt the value
of the one thing that he had gotten
out of life. What was this other
thing that gave an ignorant soldier
ADD--TRIUMPHS
and a common housemaid. motion
less and silent in the shadows of
a Towering vine, the faces of the
angels?
What did this mysterious word
mean that men used to designate this
thing? He knew what the love Of life
was, for he had seen every sort Of
creature fight desperately TO live:
and he knew the love Of gain and the
love of power. But men, all men,
everywhere, imperilcd and aban-
doned these things for the love Of
women, and they did it with no
doubt, like one who trades glass for
a jewel?
He reflected. There was no vim
tue in the thing that he had, in the
thing for which he traded away his
life, thus to transGgurc the human
face. And when he should come
up out of this great desert south
toward Khartum, he would be old!
Suddenly, he realized chat the
horse could not go on, and that he
was controlling it with difficulty,
He had traver5ed the Rue Musk,
skirted the Place Esbekiya and was
about to cross the Kamel Pasha,
that short boulevard entering the
Place Esbeliya from the north,
when a procession stopped him.
The sacred carpet had arrived
from Mecca. The streets before
him were gorged with people, and
the whole city echoed with weird
Oriental cries. There was little new
to him in the orgy of these native
ceremonies, with their riot of sound
and color, and their vast medley of
tribes assembled from the waste
places Of the earth.
For a moment, as a soldier, he APP
proved the precautions taken by the
English authorities-a company Of
troops thrown in, here and there, to
