terance which hecame more and more
a sublimated poison to him. He turned
back to yesterday recalled how she
had ridden how her pony had gal
loped from the top of the ravine after
her word had saved them how her
brown hair had streamed out from the
soft gray cloak. No Chinese princess
could ever have ridden at such a pace.
But again there was the gentle ul
most lifeless movement of her handsf
and the low fullness of heir voice wher
she talked of Tau Kuan.
She was a delightful sorrow to Lev-
ngton as if all his days too had fore-
told her. She did not know herself.
She was eighteen. The ways of the-io
outland people were familiar to her
and It was natural- she should love
their national Interests strangely like
America's bitterly different The red-
dish palace was home. Her mother
was gone. The grand vizir had
brought her American gowns street
suits and other articles the models
had displayed at Sperman's in the city
terribly far distant
There was no estimating the pains
the old Chinese had taken to secure
such thingsfpr her. Con knqw at least
of his connection with the Wedger
house which must have "been arranged
by secret means and it was clear that
Chee lling had taken many a 'point
from Cecil AVedger's incipient queens
of the cinema. The vizir had been
content to cook for a young snob
merely to garner some Information as
to how a young American girl should
be dressed; how she must talk and
think and what If anything might
please her. Con appreciated tthe genius
that had made the exclusive Wedgers
a part of ;hee Sling's plan for the
completion Vof Tau Kuan empire of
the.yellpwjsun.
' The ;tmgie cf East and West trou-
bled TLevington more and more. Helen
had almost 4ost her mother's counsel
regarding Prince Yekutoi. It was too
easy to feel the dead Eithna's horror
of the young Mongol and of the plan
she had foreseen his marriage with
her-little white daughter. .. The-mother
ciusthave jstriyen to "develop American
instincts the" riding of poniest3ove of
oak trees independence nnd'naturaT
frankness.
Levlngfon saw more vividly .how
March must have -loved Elthna how
the loss of her had nearly broken down
his sanity and at last how he had
kept secret his Innermost Intention for
another journey Into the perilous Gobi.
It had meant too much for him to put
his hope in words. He had planned to
run down .the international beast
koresh; all that side of the rtory-was
just as he had confided it to Levlng-
ton. But then there had been much
morej March's interest did! not begin
or end in a federal 'commission. Con
realized now thei'deep and double joy
of his friend when he had first found
Chee Ming in Cory streets marketing
the drug; only to find thafthe tracings
Iedto the-GobIdesert.
Theaffair of tlie present moaning;
recurred to mind the monzoui in his.
enchanted garden. Despite seeming
leisure events im the palace went too
swiftly for a final valuation. "Con was
puzzled to find that the more closely
he tried to recall the garden the ap-
pearance of the fat lord the singing
bird the.dancert .and the magiqlan the j
less he knew about them. Had the
Juggler poured hlswlne Into the fourth
(dimension or.wasthe watcher merely
transported by a breath of the drug?
Levington went now to the outer cor
ners of his prison enduring the hostile
eyes ot-a double guard to look for the
vlne-cqveredbbwer;of royal entertain
ment but could see. nothing of It He
must nave turned Into a courtyard of
the palnce itself.. One grim assurance
clung to luni: the sinister. fragrance
oi Koresii; -
Through mid-afternoon as often as
his active mind abandoned some new
and equally futile plan of escape his
tnougut circled around to Helen. He
reclined under the green silken awning
ana repeated Her name. He was awak
ened to the center of his being and
was scarcely aware that every new
plan for escape included two others
besides himself and one a princess;
Mentally she remained with him In
the throne .room her glance toward
the prisoner she had spared her bore-
dom with the proceedings her beautir
ful feet a Western woman as he must
have guessed had It not been for the
slight tilt of her brows and this he
had seen more closely to be but the
cunning work of her maid-servants ; in
her own apartment surrounded by
things American the transformation
that was not complete because of her
Chinese training personal qualities
that tantalized him the first words
that had thrilled him so unaccountably
and the- last bringing a clutch of iter-.
ror; me ciear young oeauty of her
face her Hps the soft brown of her
hair the curve of girlish shoulders
the grave pleasure at meeting that
stranger her father and the unemo-
tional view she held of her own future
as queen of this fantastic state. These
fragmentary thoughts possessed Lev-
Ington brought him life as It had
never come before hurt him Savagely
50 that he sighed and tossed about on
the green cushions.
Then he remembered once again that
they would not permit him to. live.
This fact had a totally new aspect
md the novelty of It now brought him
to his feet His "gray slave started ap
in surprise ind the pair of blg-swora-d
soldiers made themselves felt at
the stair-head. For the first time In
his career Con rebelled against death
rt seemed no longer a part of the
?ame. Instant or slow death did not
interest him now; it was a stupid rule
3f the play. He wanted mightily to
live. There was something both sweet
and very bitter in dwelling in the sama
desert city with Helen March. Then
were so many things he had to tell
her so much he longed to ask; also
an additional urgency for a talk with
her -father.

SPRING FEVER
. Follawtafl Celts Grip mr Flu
Thin Watery r Poisosad Blbdd
(By Dn. Valentine Mqtt.)
At this time of year most people
suffer from what we term " spring
fever " because of a stagnant con-
dition of the blood because of the
toxins (poisons) stored up within
the body during the long winter.
We eat too much meat with little
or no green vegetables.
Bloodless people- thin anemic
feople. those with pale cheeks and
ips who have a poor appetite and
feel that tired worn or feverish
condition in the spring-timo of the
j'ear should try the refreshing tonic
powers of a good alterative and
tyood purifier. Such a tonic as
druggists have sold for fifty years
is Dr. .Pierce's Golden Medical Dis-
covery. ..It is a standard remedy
that can. ;be obtained in tablet or
HqulcJ form. Made without alcohol
from wild roots and barks.
SAX Mabcial N Mex. lI suffered
for. two years with frequent headache
and pain in my left side and the small
of my back. 1 was despondent and so
nervous the least racket? would upset
me. I wrote to the Specialists at the
Invalids' Hotel and was advised to use
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
and the Anuric Tablets. I did so and
immediately began to set better. My
symptoms disappeared and ;a two
months' time my health was - gained.
I took six bottles of each me Line and
a -few of the ' Pleasant Pellet ' for reg-
ulating my bowels. I am now in per-
fect health and enjoying life.
"I cannot say too much in praise
of these medicines and the kind and
courteous attention given me." Miss
Mamie Coyslaxd.
