She la east ashore on a Pactftu Island and Is taken by a native chief to bis hut to nurse his sick child. Tha native child la restored to health, and the (fateful natives Idolise Lucille. Loubeque, alao cast ashore, tries various plans to recover the papers, but In vain e wr a CHAPTER VII. A Chief Borrows From a Chief. N going into the (lute afreet be noticed tha chief In ear neat conference with bla dangbter and an old native woman whom Lucille bad no recollec tion of seeing about tba village before. Bad aha but known tbla waa but an other aervtle tool of Hugo Lonbeqoa'a wbnt future danger ebe might have been aavedl Corning closer, sbe knew that It whs a atranger Moreover, from the tight npon the crone's wrinkled cwrnWhance: and tha furious geatlcula tloos she made toward ber aba felt that b waa tba object ot controversy. And tba daughter of the old chief Beamed adding ber pleas to those of tba old woman with affect. Lucille stood a little apart, watching tba conference aa It disbanded. She bad picked up enough of the language to make oat an occasional word, but tba gestures of the three had been un mistakable. Sb waited quietly while tba trio approached ber, feeling that In soma way the problem that bad been harassing ber was to be answered without further worry on ber part She smiled at tba chief's efforts to make ber understand wbnt be desired of ber, smiled and shook ber bead aa tba withered old woman made an equally unsuccessful attempt But the little girl took the situation In band. Without much difficulty Lucille made out from tbe child that the old woman came from a chief greater than ber fa ther, who lived In a village not far dis tant; that tbe wonder of ber curative ability bad reached bis ears, and be earnestly preyed tbe white woman be loaned his own wife for a nurse, that abe might be cured of an Illness which seemed certain to be fatal. Lucille ssw from tbe glum expres sion on tbe old chiefs face that, even though It might bring him Into trouble with bis neighbor chief, be was more than loath to part with ber. Sbe also saw that the child, with tbe remem brance of ber own Illness fresh upon her. bad allowed ber heart to go out to the wife In such sympathy that sbe bad persuaded ber father to permit tba loaning. tier heart gar a great throb of de light at this unexpected answer to ber prayer. She bad known there would be trouble getting away wltb tbe pa pers Just aa abe bad determined that sbe most leave. There wss no possi ble chance of regaining civilisation from here. There might be no chance la another place, but (bare was hope, and. while It was meager sustenance, anything waa better than tbe strain of knowing Impossibility. Anything ap pealed to bar so long as It embraced a change, for change spelled renewed hope. Then, too, Hugo Loubeque would be temporarily at least thrown off tha tralL In aa boor aba bad mounted the cblefs own horse, ber very soul re joicing at tha familiar feel of an easy canter. Beside ber rode the old wo man, mumbling continually to herself aa though abe were keeping track of the devious turns In the wilderness of vegetation through which their way led. Once Lucille was conscious of a vague feeling of mistrust as sbe look ed back at the squat figure of the old woman ambling along stolidly aa some heathen Idol, only ber ratlike eyes emitting flashes of Ore from between the layers of wrinkled, brown, droop ing lids Faster, faster sbe urged ber horse as sbe saw a clear stretch of trail open ing before ber, her hand continually reaching up and feeling tbe precious burden about ber neck. Then abe looked back for ber escort, when tbe ground seemed to grow soft, to Blip op from under ber mount'a hoofs and send ber hurtling down down down she kuew not where nor why down into blackness st which her bands clutched vainly, clutching nothing from tbe dark down Into a blackness thst seemed stifling her until It reached up and mercifully compassed her con sciousness. Hugo Loubeque curtly dismissed tbe withered crone who handed blm tha sack containing the documents Lucille had worn about ber neck. In his eyes glowed no light of triumph. Hirst they had lighted with a atrange relief, but nun they seemed fastened npon s "" rj ailed with vague regret as he i-iMiized the girl, lying helpless at the i... iiom of the pit be bad caused Ms native to dig serosa tbe trait Suddenly be sprang to bis feet, once more the man of action. Pity this girl, daughter of tha woman be loved, ha night, but sbe waa not .the sort to He supine while ha made away with toe papers for which she bad gone through so much already. Suddenly be tore open tbe bag, damping the contents out before him and running through them nerroualy. When be looked up tbe light of disappointment, ahnuet fen i. was upon his face. The amulet, tbe sacred amulet which had served her so well, would continue to serve her so well as long aa aba con tinued In tbla land, was still in ber possession. He bad failed to tell the crone to steal that alao. And tba old woman bad reported that aha waa merely stunned. Tba sacred amulet which would make ber revered by any savage ahe chanced to meat waa still hers, while he, Hugo Loubeque, would Bud every band against blm. Me moved swiftly now, preparing for away from irr (tealoua pursuit and to ward poNNihic relief, for so long aa be remained here Lucille had every one for fileii.l nmi Habitant, while ha had only those be might gain through fear. e e e e e e Lucille stirred. oieiied her eyee In be wilderment, nimble to piece together any connvctlon between the black bole In which she found herself and the narrow trail through tbe Jungle along which ahe had urged ber horse. Grad ually It all came back to ber. Her hands sought Imr bosom, and, wltb a little groan of utter misery, she gave way to uncontrollable sobs. The reaction did her good, worked wonders with ber. In that apell of self pity father, borne, sweetheart, everything, waa forgotten before tbe horror of her own predicament Fin Inhed wltb It. she gathered every facul ty, mental and physical, and scrambled to her feet. Above her aa aha lifted her eyes nhv made out a streak of light, threaded between alslra of dense lean ness the sun piercing home into the Juuglu. the moved forward, her baml before bur, groplug. Botuethlng soft and motionless and ao still It caused her to shudder met the toe of her boot. She drew buck In swift alarm, know ing It to be the body of tbe horse ahe bad ridden, n great feeling of grateful ness at ber own escape from a elmllar fate warming her through and through. Mastering the Innate repulsion within ber, she stepped upon the corpse, ber bands reaching up and finding the smooth edge of tbe bole that bad been dug across the roadway to entrap ber. Her fingers found the roots of a tree. root so stout they bore ber weight For a moment ahe waited, gathering ber failing strength for tbe supreme effort Then ahe smaug up, gathering ber kneea under bur, relaxing slightly before putting forward every ounce of her strength and drawing herself to tbe warm surface of tbs road. About ber on every side the Jungle breathed, loathsome, fetid, horrible. Like soma giant monster It seemed to spread Its myriad tentacles In every direction. Darting egress, fastening upon tha one who chanced to stray within It sucking at one's very vitals. The cbstter of monkeys sod tbe shrieks of birds Oiled the air. Hut no odds how bleak tbe prospect bow forlorn the bops, one slways feels courage renewed when oue baa Just glimpsed s greater danger and averted It Lucille had known within tbe quar ter hour the horror of blindness, snd ber besrt leaped blgb wltb Joy st be ing able to aee these things. In this anme Jungle wltb ber. In quits as bad a predicament was Hugo Loubeque. and wltb Hugo Lobeque ware the pa pers she had fought ao bard to recover.

The thought braced her aa would a douse of cold nter. To right to loft before her and behind was naught bat jungle. V bleb way abould sbe torn to come across the International apyt She felt the amulet about ber neck wiin nen ous. plucking lingers as though seeking to rend tbe answer there.

Aa though ner question wss to be answered fur her. she noticed tbe cbst ter of the munkeys suddenly changing, observed s wild alarm In their voices, and, looking up, aaw a boat an army of tin-in. huddled close together, then slipping swiftly lu wild disorder from tree to tree.

Together with the uncertainty of bla position, with ren llxatlnn nf tbe In tense lonelliii-- mi Inability to speak the language ! any people be might chance to mist, the international spy fought bis way through the jangle in more of a spirit of terror than he seer exiH-rlcnccd before.
