like her grandson's, was impenetrable

pride of a race whose origins are lost in
the mists Of antiquity was in the car
riage of her head. her long -limbed body
and the measured movements of her

sit and look at this strange woman
was a sensation. Mary was still SPELL

rTIENNE CHARBONETTE hurried along the
L. Rue Es Zidguine, elbowing his way through
the throng of chattering white-robed Moors, Ber-
bers and half naked negroes, to slip at length
into narrow lane that coiled between high
walls and dmly illuminated doorways like
black adder whose poison fangs were the tongues
of light that seemed to point accusing yellow
fingers at him. Trembling with fear, he skunk
along close to the moss-covered stone wall. For
the past week the little Frenchman had been
tormented by a terror so deep-rooted and dis
turbing that he was on the verge of madness.
Charbonette hardened criminal-he hadn't
even the remotest semblance of conscience to
trouble him for what he had done. But rear
that was different matterl There had been
witness to his crime-a crime which, If dis
covered he would pay for with his life! Etlenne
Charbonette had murdered a man. But 1t was
not the ghost of the dead who haunted him! 1t
was the Moor with the burning eyes who Char
bonette had seen standing in the shadows watch
ing him as he rose after ripping the coin bags
from the belt of the Jewish money changer who
had been his victim.
He would never forget those eyes! They were
like the eyes of some jungle beast-wild, pene-
trating full of phosphorescent glow. The Moor
had moved out of the shadows toward him. A
ray of light from some shaded window had fallen
across his face for a moment revealing finely
chiseled features like coppery parchment which
ended in an inky beard necRed WIN SllVer'
Across one cheek, from ear to nostri was
livid ugly scar. The Moor was within few feet
of him when Charbonette had finally summoned
enough strength in his legs to run.
That face had haunted him ever since! Then
tonight he had seen the Moor again! He had
been recognizable felt positive of that! The
man had looked straight at him with those ter
rible eyes. What he going to do? Was he
waiting for Charbonette to come to him offering
share of the loot? Was that why he kept
silent? The International Police of Tangier had
offered a reward-nearly as much as he had
found in the money bags. The Moor could iden-
tify him easily at any moment he decided to act.
Tangier wasn't so large! Even a sketchy de-
scription such as a native might give to the
police would be enough. Charbonette had served
sentence at Devils Island for robbery and had
a bad record on the Continent. He wouldn't have
a chance He must get out of Morocco at once!
But that wasn't such easy matter. There was
the little detail of passport! There would be
questions and even if he managed to get his
clearance which was most unlikely, where
would he go? He didn't dare return to the Con-
tinent: in Algiers there was desertion charge
from the Foreign Legion hanging over him: and
he had been denied permission to land in Egypt.
The international Zone of Tangier was his only
haven, and now he had jeopardized that!

burying his head in his hands
Only this Moor, the man with the SCARED face

nothing; there was possible way to trace him,
no evidence pointing in his direction. Just this

He retraced his steps to the Rue de Ia Marine,
where he had seen the Moor less than an hour
before but he failed to find the man. He wan
dered about for perhaps an hour searching for
the face that had been haunting him. and at
last for some reason he could not explain, he
found himself drawn toward the spot where he
had first seen the Moor-the scene of the MUIR
der.
AS he wound through the maze of torturousy
narrow streets, he passed dim shops that
breathed the mingled scents of musk and sande-
wood The mnarets of mosques etched shadowy
needles against the star-studded Moroccan sky.
Voices of young men fresh and laughing and
old men heavy with dead dreams came to him.
The weird, falsetto notes of a reed instrument
foated out from some sequestered court and
occasionally came the dull beating of drums
and the voices of dancing girls. There were
blurred -ys where naked negro slaves,
darker than the night, lay sleeping. He ap-
preached the Melah, the Jewish quarter. Then.
suddenly, he saw the Moor! He was standing

HARBONETTE began to tremble. Who was
~ this man? Why did he come here? Per-
haps he was waiting for him. Charbonette-
knowing he would come Well, he would keep
the rendezvous! strange change came over
the Frenchman. He became a sinking, cat-like
beast of the night Drawing the knife from mis-
belt, he cautiously approached the Moor. The
white-robed figure did not move. He stood in
darkened doorway but a few PAGES from where
the dead Jew had lain.
Charbonette was almost within striking dis
tance when the Moor turned toward him. Those
burning eyes bored through the darkness
straight at him. They were not human eyes!
Fear again gripped Etienne Charbonette- fear
SO terrible that deathly nausea caused him to
reel crazily Then, like a cornered rat with
mad scream, he leaped toward the Moor, knife
raised high above his head to strike.
But before the knife could descend. strong
arms gripped him, pulling him backward An
electric torch was turned into his face. Two
gendarmes held the struggling man, who fought
with maniacal strength. A moment later three
more stepped out of the shadows.
In a high, shrly unnatural voice, Charbonette
hurled curses at the Moor, who stood silently
against the wall, his eyes straight before him.
"You tricked me, you filthy swine You black
spawn OF q pig you alone Saw Tle Kill IHe jew
You brought them here to wait for me-" With
a superhuman effort, the little Frenchman broke
away from the gendarnes and hurled himself
upon the Moor. A moment later he was again
overpowered-hed prone on the ground

the men exclaimed. Turning to his companions
he said, "The man has confessed This clears the
Moor. 1t seemed incredible that he could have
done 1t anyway" He motioned them to lift Char
bonette to his feet You are under arrest for
the murder of the money changer" He spoke
sharply but Charbonette did not hear him. He
was looking at the Moor, strange mad light
In his eyes.
Don't look at me like that! Don't don't,
can't stand it!' he screamed.
Here, be quiet, you fool! The Moor is not
looking at you. Are you mad? Look!" The gen.
darme turned his torch into the dark face. The
Moor did not SO much as blink an eyelash. He
passed his hand in front of the Moors face.
"This man can neither see, hear talk. He is
a blind and deaf mute-the beggar Muley Ada
zar. He sleeps in the court beyond the door
there" Turning to Charbonette, whose eyes
stared straight ahead, seemingly as sightless as
the Moor's, the gendarnne looked at him with
contempt Come take him away" he told his
men,

If you are handicapped make up your mind
what you want to do-AND GO TO 1T.
Cast all doubt fear despair worry and anx-
iety to the Winds because these enemies of
mankind have no place in the creative mind
They are the gangsters of the brain and should
be slain ruthlessly without consideration. They
are negative thoughts that MUST NOT BE LET
IN
YOU CAN AND MUST BEND CIRCUM-
STANCE TO YOUR WILL!
Don't be Polyanna and don't be sweet and
considerate that the world will think you'll
stand for anything it wants to hand you. After
all there is the spark of the divine in you that
can and should be expressed and you've double
crossed the Great Creator if you fail to use the
talents and ability He has given you.
This doesn't mean that you are, mad dog
fashion, running wild with unchecked power, but
it does mean that you have the strength of will
to battle for your own and others rights.
No one has any for dynamic individual
who misuses his strength is inconsiderate or
dishonest, but chain this strength to honest,
straightforwardness genius and you have an
almost unconquerable person
There is such a thing as power of affirmation.
l have never been one to believe that saying
thing makes it true but do believe that in
dark moments it does good to take yourself out
and give yourself good talking to! Sounds
silly but it might be effective.
I low often have you said to friends, II
ought to stay home tonight and do this,
but don't feel in the mood? Right there is
the time for you to start talking to yourself.
Be firm and be positive. Even if you have to do
it behind closed door all alone. Just stand up
and say Nov look here let me show you some-
thing Mr.. Physical Man. You're just plain in
dolent, or fearful. This is what you could accom-
psh tonight if you would sit tight and do it.
Here are the books. If you stay home and work
you get this-and if you go out you get this"
This doesn't mean that you shouldn't have
fun, but the very fact that you have made the
statement, II ought to stay home" shows that
this is not the right night to play.
There are times too when you know you
should do things and are AFRAID! There Is
that executive you should see, or that banker,
or the owner of that mortgage, but you hang
back filling your mind with excuses. Rid your
mind of limp negative thoughts and WALK
STRAIGHT UP AND FACE THE MUSIC,
knowing down in your innermost heart that
YOU ARE BIGGER THAN ANYTHING THAT
CAN HAPPEN TO YOU!
There is only one thing that can hold
you back and that 1t the inner consciousness of
having done wrong. But usually that's the re-
suit of negative thought somewhere in the
past that you can correct.
So long you know you are honest and sin.
cere you need fear to face no man regardless
of what the situation might be- The reason Is
that you will be the owner of your soul
and not matter what the body is where it
exists-if you can do your own thinking you'll
find life worth living.
