Once upon a time there
lived by the side of a
deep wood a very pretty
little girl who was SO
sweet and 6 o o d that
every one loved her. All
the people in the village
and even the woodcut-
tiers in the forest were
very fond of her and
would often stop to talk
with her as she strayed
off into the woods, look

her mother.
The little girls grand

on the other side of the
wood, had made her a

the emerald that he had worn each

on his wrist, and to her affrighted
eyes it seemed alive and moving
He looked at her a long time
motionless. Then he raised his right
arm and pointed. The men drew her
backward to a rock that stood beyond

seated her against it. and swiftly
bound her feet and wrists together
Omar watched, impassive, his jew.

The men took a scarf, and prepared
to bind her eyes.
Then Omar spoke again.
'Laila," said he. no woman ever
before has witnessed these rites. nor
any part of them. No woman shall

His hand moved, and the men bound
the scarf about her head, shutting off
the scene
The men doomed forth the signal
word they had uttered before.
Omar's voice responded and with
gathering speed, went into a chant.

her ears with a throbbing beat that in.

The words were in a strange tongue

hands against her ears.
Finally she began to crawl for

figures danced, but high enough so

were scarlet.
The flame licked up, and died down;
rose and fell again.
The circle of men uttered one word
in unison
There was silence. as the figure
reached its full height. and deliber-
ately-so deliberately that Laila scarce
could trace the movement--raised its
arms above it's head.
The freight blazed. and Laila could
see for an instant the outline, of q
mans smOoth-shaven cheek. between
the upraised arms. A long robe fell
from his shoulders to the ground. and
the wide sleeves dropped from his
elbows. His forearms were bare. and
on the fingers of his hands she could
catch the flash of jewels.
He waved his hands, and another
word. spoken as if in one voice. came
from the bowling circle. Laila was
twitching in a nervous chill

enough to cast something on the red

For the first time the standing

Laila gasped. The voice was the

Persian.
The words were strange to her, but
she knew the tone. In fright, she
looked behind her, and started to
wriggle backward, away from the rock
and its circle of men.
The standing figure whirled and
faced her.
'Laila," doomed the voice of Omar
She subsided, limp and helpless, her
face pressed against the earth.
"Laila," said the rich, stern voice
again.
Two men leaped to their feet, and
scrambling down the rock, ran to
where the woman lay. guided by
Omar's outstretched finger. They took
her by the arms, and dragging her to
her feet, took her with them to the
circle by the fire. Not another man
moved.
Omar dropped his arms. and gazed
upon her. She was on her knees, up
held by the hands of the men who
had brought her. Her neck was weak
with fright, and her head moved
