She had tried to see things from his point of view. She was prepared to make al- lowances, to find excuses for him. And he had treated her with harsh- ness; wiltully set her at a disad- vantage; purposely had misunder- stood her; deliberately had said all he could to wound her. He had done his best to hate her. He had put vengeance before love. Now he had his reward.

The little hand whose touch could always soothe his restless spirit, that had ‘once teased and caressed him, opening out visions of a Paradise that his own deeds had now shut out from him forever. The fruit of the tree of vengeance is bitter. And this Le Breton realized to the fullest as he gazed at the silent girl. “Pansy, don’t mock me from beyond the Styx,” he whispered. “For you know now @hat my heart is broken, There's nothing but grief for me here and hereafter.” Then it seemed to the tortured man that a miracle happened. The girl's eyes opened. For a brief second she gazed at him in a dazed. bewildered manner. Then her lids dropped weakly, as if even that slight effort was too much for her. 2 CHAPTER VI Blué-black night surrounded the Arab encampment. Here and there a red watch-fire punctuated the dark- ness. Although well past midnight, 2 light burned in the sultan’s tent. It came from a heavy silver lamp slung trom the bar joining the twé main supporting poles. Be ifint fiickered on the couch where Pansy still lay, limp and white among the silken cushions, her curls making a halo about her pain-drawn face. She was no longer clgd in her muslin frock, but in a silk nightgown with her namesakes embroidered upon it. A light silk rug covered her up to her waist; on it her hapds lay, weak and helpless. ©On discovering there was a spark of life left in his prisoner, the sultan had sent post-haste to an adjacent tent for Edouard. X+ hen the doctor arrived, Le Breton i stood eilent while the patient was ex- amined, in an agony of tortured love awalting the verdict. There's mo hope unless T can get the bullet out,” the doctor had re- marked at the 2nd of the examination “It escaped her heart by about half an inch; but it means co: tant hem- rhagé If it's left in the lungs.

She's young and healthy. But if she survives, she’ll feel the effects of that bullet for some ime to come.” & H¥ith that Edouard left to fetch his instruments, leaving the sultan gaz- ing down at the result of his own mad desire for vengeance—a red, 00z- ing wound on a girl's white breast. Xvhen the doctor returned, while he probed after the bullet Le Breton held Pansy with firm, careful strength, lest, in pain, she should move and send the instrument into the heart Cameren's shot had just missed. But she was unconscious througa it all. Although the probing brought a fur- ther gush of blood. Edouard managed to locate the bullet and extraet it. After the wound was dressed, and Pansy bound and bandaged up, the doctor lett. - With his departure the sultan sent for Pansy's belongings, which his sol- dlers had brought up as plunder from the raid. 3 There was no woman among bis following, so he sent ome of ‘the guards to inquire if thers was one among the captives. Presently Pansy ou, to him. : brAH%‘;t“' s a pretty Lro girl of about seventeen. clad in a blue cotton Slip, and she wore & yellow silk hand- kerchief tied around her black curls.

Evening shadows crent into the tent, bringing & deft-handed, silent servant, who lighted the heavy silver lamp and withdrew as siiently as he had come.

An hour passed, then two, without. that ominous red stain coming to her lips. Edouard nodded to himself i eatisfied - way as he “|1eft the tent. A little of the strained look left the sultan’s face. The hemorrhage had stopped; youth and health were wining the battle. Just the first pink streak of dawn entered the tent Pansy's eyes again and stayed open, purple of pain that rested on the sul- tan’s with a puzzled expression. Into the misty world of suffering and weakness in which she moved it seerned to her that Raoul Le Breton had come looking at her as he had once looked, with love and tneder. ness in his glowing eyes. o5 She could not make out where she ‘was or how he came to be the: She d no recollection of the horde who broken into the guardroom where she and Cameron had been.

He bent his head still lower, with infinite tenderness kissing the white lips that had breathed his name 3o talntly. Pansy's eyes closed again. A look of contentment came to mingle with the suffering on her face. Outside the hyenas still laughed mockingly: derislve echoes from a distance. But Le Breton did not hear them. Despite his treatment of h: Pansy had smiled upon him. For ths first time in his wild life he felt hu- mility and gratitude, both new sen- sations. ' ‘When Edouard came again he pro- nounced the girl sleeping, not uncen- sclous. “With care and attention she'll pull through,” he said. “Thank God!" his patron exclaimed; with unfeigned rellef and Jov. Edouard glanced at his master spec- ulatively, He had heard nothing about Pan- sy's existence until he had been hur- riedly summoned to attend her, and he wondered why his friend and pa- tron had made no mention of the #irl. “You never told me Barclay had a daughter,” he commented. “I did not know myself until quite recently,” the sultan replied. “Is she to share her father's fate the doctor asked drily.

If the girl played her caras well. she would be able te save her father, and prevent his patron doling out death to a British ofiicial, thus embroiling himself still further with the English government. After the doctor had left, Le Bre- ton sat.on Pansy's couch. Yet he had not learned his lesson. Although he loved the daughter, he hated the father as intensely as ever. Now he was making other plans plans that would enable him to keep both love and vengeance. Plans, (oo, that might make the girl forget his color and give him the love he mow craved Yor so wildly. CHAPTER VII. In one of the tents in the glade Sir George Barclay sat, an Arab guard on-either side of him. There was an almost stupefied air about him; Jf & man whose world has suddenly got beyond his control. The previous afternoon, without any warning, his party had been set upon and captured; but by whom, and why, he did not know. There was no rebeilious chief in the district: no discontent. Yet he was a prisoner in the hands of some wild trilbe; cap- tured so suddenly that nat one of his men had escaped to take werd to the next British outpost and bring up & force to his assistance. v There was but one streais of €onso- lation in his broodings—the knowl- edge that his daughter had not fallen alive into the hands of the barbaric soldlery. Some Tittle time after he had been brought a prisoner to the xlade ‘he had seen Cameron come in, white and shaking with fever. On seeing his chief, the vouns man *had shoutel acrosy the space: “Thank God! the niggers havan't got Pansy alive.” They were given no time for fur- ther -conversation, for one was hus- tlcd tnis way and one that. As Barclay sat brooding on the fatc that had overtaken his party and try- ing to find a reason for it, some one entered the tent. In the newcomer he recognized the leader of the force that had waylaid ard captured him and his party. “So, George Barclay, we meet for a second time,” a deep voice said sav- age ench. Burclay -scanned the big man in the white burnoose who stood looking at him with hatred in his dark, fiers ; ever To his knowledge he had never seen him before. “Where did we first meet.” he asked quietly. ixteen years ago, when you mur- dered my father, the Sultan Casim Ammeh Sir George started violently and scanned the man anew. He had 2 reason now for the untoward hap- pening: “Do you remember all I promised for you and yours that day you re- fused to listen to my pleadings?’ the savage voice asked. Barclay remembered only too well. And as he looked at the ruthl face before him he was more ¢ ever thankful for the one thin “Thank God, my daughter is dead!" he sald. The sultan smiled, “Your daughter is not dead,” he re plied. “She is allve; just alive. An you may rest asseured that she'll have every care and attentlon.” The news left Barclay staring in & stricken manner at his captor. My doctor assures me that she will live” the sultan went on. “And you will' ltve, too, to see her sold as a slave in the public garket of my city.” Sir George _said nothing. The thought of Pansy's ghastly fate placed him beyond speech. At that moment he could only pray that she might die. CHAPTER VIIL Three days elapsed before Pansy returned to full consciousness, and even then the world was a very hazy place. One morning she woke up, almost too weak to move, with a feeling that she must have had a bad attack of fever. She tried to sit up, but Alice, her mulatto maid, beat {over her quickly, pressing her back gently on the piilows. “No, Missy Pansy,” that famillar, crooning voice said with an air of authority. “De doctor say you stay dere and no mov: \ Paney was not at all anxious te move after that one attempt.
