 You do not speak of love-" Dag ger reminded him.
 NO, for love depends upon a woman-and who can be sure of a woman? 2"
 Surely, not one who doubts her"
 His eyes gripped hers once more, almost with an hypnotic force.
 True, and yet-'' He switched abruptly into a description of past campaigns.
 A second week slipped by. Chang's motor. was at her door punctually every morning; her vases were kept filled with flowers from the Tu-chun's gardens. And all though she didn't know it, she sus- pected from the yelled remarks of the foreigners she met, that she was the subject of a great deal of gossip in the city.
 The third week of her visit was half finished. and to tell the truth, she was commencing to weary some NlIdC ol DulS-l NllSll Slle ltIelNeu a second and more amazing, invita- tion from Chang:
 Dear Mrs Vaneering," the block like characters said. T have a mat ter to discuss with you which is of interest to me and may be of in terest to you. Will you honor me by being my guest at dinner tonight? l shall ask no others"
 Dagger gasped She had heard man tales of the Tu-hun's Palace, of the intrigue that permeated it, of the bizarre harem of women repre- senting most of the races of the world. Should she thrust herself in the power of a man who was ac- customed to follow every whim which occurred to him? Was there a sinister implication in his con- cluding sentence?
 She was tempted to go to the Consul, to loyal, little MT. Araki; but in the same breath she flung back her head, the old Dagger of the plains, fearless, self-confident, hum gry for adventure. No, she'd go, and say nothing to anyone, not even her maid.
 She wasn't afraid of Chang. He couldn't be more difficult to man. age than a Villista or Senussi Sheikh. And likewise, she admitted ! to herself, Chang revealed none of 1 the symptoms of the petty soul who stoops to he f1agrantly dishonoroble l offenses. A thief, he was a great | thief. a sensualist, he was too ac- complished to savor pleasure in | forced embraces.
