Still sounding in her ears. ‘The cup! Someone had sent it trolling, bumping and clattering ,across the stone floor. | sercital Heaven, help! ‘There was a man—gtanding on the coping of the baleony--clearly silhouetted against the moonlight and the lumi- nous sky, He was hanging on a rope—or holding to it, as he stogd on the Dalcony ledge—and he had kicked the tin eup into the room. as he sought. foothold, Had she not gone, and drunk wa- ter, ang jeft the cup therein the middle, of the coping—he would haye got into the room in perfect silence, and found her there asteep. Well—now he had found her ; awake. Thank God for thepistol. But she couldn’t shoot the man in cold blood, without a word. Yet if she waited much longer, her hand certainly would begin to shake. Could he see her now? Why didn’t he move? Of course, he was Meter» ing, peering, Should she fire, or speak? \ Bhe would fire. |. Heavens, no! It might not be ‘Rqlaul, And if it wore Raisul—and she killed him--what would happ-n to them all, as soon as the Kald |knew? Titings unthinkable. , Whe man stooped and stepped | dawn into the balcony. “Well?” said Margaret quietly, and turned 1p the lemp. | “Good evening, my dear. One | would almost have thought that you j were expecting me. Well, you will | bq expecting me, after tonight, | though I shan’t have to come down @ rope.” “Stop! Stand still,” “Good Hegvens! 4 teal pistol! What @ desperate young woman! Now 1 wonder where on earth you @qt that thing. And 1 wonder Whether it’s loaded. And 1 wonder ‘whether you can use it.” “Stop!” cried Margaret again. “Stand still. If you evosa that. mat, PH shoot you.” Haisul laughed, “Well, well,” he grinned, and suddenly sobered. “Love me, Margaret, have me. I wit make you heppy, I swear it by the Ninety and Nine sacred names 8 Allah. Love? What do these Christian dogs know of love? And Raisul ‘eliberately stepped into the middie of the mag, just as Margaret perforce lowered her « h- ing arm. “Shoot, Margaret!” he said, and spread his arms wide, exposing his breast. Margaret raised the pistol. *Shoot, Margaret!” he repeated, standing steady as a rock, smiling wafiochingly. What should she do? He was edg- img nearer.

For how can man die better?” And Raisul took another step towards the bed. ’Piease don’t make me kill you, Rajsul,” Margaret said. “Have you nO decency at all? You shan" die oy, the praying-carpet.

Either I have your lips with mine, or I'll have his lips with § knife, That'll spoil his beauty, won't it, Margaret. That’s what I tell you, Margaret, and I think yeu know whether I am a man who kgeeps all lils promises—when they gre threats.” Neither of them had yet _— tioned a name.

That was another part of j my errand of mercy—to tell you that Jules has met with a little acci- dent,” “Jules? An accident?” i “Yes, and to offer the appropri- { ate condolences or congratulations. In fact, I might have shouted in the | window, ‘Is the Widow Maligni at { me?” “Suddenly Margaret sat down. “Yes, the poor Jules ig no longer j with us, and Otho Relléme will be | with us no longer—if I go now, Mar and murder Otho? j “Raisul,” she said. “Is there any oath that you would keep?” “Qh yes, especially ta you,.Mar garet. Yes... there’s an oath I'é keep.” “Then listen. Will you swear that oath to me? That it.I do not give myself to you—you intend to tor ture and to kill Otho Belléme?” “With the greatest pleasure, and absolute sincerity.” “I believe you.” That settled it. If Jules were dead, he could not suffer punish ment. Pedro Maligni and hig wile must look out for themselves, as they had done all these years. Por herself—well, never mind herself.
