Stuffed Olivet
""HE bright, unearthly moon-
light did strange things to
them, cast exotic shadows about
their eyes and the planes of their
heads and bodies.
"Just who are wa and Just
where ara we?" queried Anne, as
sh stood wet and shining before
the curtain of the talis.
Mackey gave her one look and
turned and trudged off down to
the Are that the men had built uo
extravagantly. Anne watched
him, aware she should follow.
"I know where we are," mur
mured Sherwood, putting an arm
around her as he stood at her
aide. "Can t vou guess?
She looked up at him and shook
her head.
"Don't you recognize the
place? This is paradise."
"And Doddap wept when he
nromued vou heaven.
"But we have the present." He
drew her to him. "Put your arms
around my neck.
Her beauty-loving eyes traced
the sculptured lines of his head.

his hair.
His mouth came down on hers
at first gently as if testing its wel

When he relaxed his clasp a
trifle she oushed awav from him
aghast. "I must be crazy," she

his voice still gruff with emotion.

again, but she twisted free and

Mackey brought her coat and

added Anne, indicated the land
scape about them and the fire be
fore them in which they could
tee the pieces of their carriage go
ing up in flames. "If we leave
here it won't be as we came."
The men avoided her eyes un
til Sherwood turned, bending
over her. "See, a banquet is be
ing set in the tent Did you bring
one gorgeous dress?"
Her eyes began to glow. "A
(olden chiffon especially packed."
"We'll hava a party," offered
Mackey as his share of a gallant
gesture. "You in chiffon. Blaze in
a tux and me with my uniform
buttons shined."
Anne had trouble with tears
all the time she was alone In the
tent drawing on gossamer stock
ings and satin underthings and
finally brushing her hair to a per
fect lustre. When she lifted the
tent flap, the cook stood there
waiting, a great platter of steam
ing rice in hit hands.
Dinner
THEY took their places around
the table on which stood
scores of dishes of food, the great
platter of rice, sheets of bread,
meat cakes, sweet cakes, nuts,
watermelon seeds, mounds of col
ored sugar balls, lugs of sour
milk, pots of tea, all put on the
table at once. But the prize dish
was the centerpiece. A bowl of
American stuffed olives.
Sherwood and Anne sampled
them at once. Mackey made
wry face. "I leave olives to lov
ers." "You're a pal," said Sherwood,
giving his shoulder a friendly
slap, nls voice natural, but in his
eyes, Anne saw, a look of tor
ment. Suddenly ..e clenched his
fists and rose. "Pete, isn't there
something we can do?
"Start a fight and get shot for
our pains."
"I might start a fight," sug
gested Anne. 'They're afraid to
murder me." She was feeling ex
traordinarily alive at if her food
had given her the energy of half
a dozen people.
The men smiled at her tender
ly. Sherwood walked to the en
trance and glanced out Ha re
turned and took an olive.
"Here'a to you," he said to
Anne, and bit it in two with his
strong white teeth.
"What did you see?" Mackey
asked.
'The soldiers are en their
camels doing mounted guard
dutv."
They must be expecting some
thing to happen."
"If we could at least get hold
of a gun I"
"We might try entertaining
thm," suggested Anne.
"1 can play a mouth organ."
offered Mackey, drawing one
from his pocket
"Well!" remarked Anne,
"you've been holding out on us."
"I've been a sick man. Can rou
sing and dance?"
"After a fashion. she admitted,
and turned to Sherwood. "What's
your accomplishment?"
He grinned. "Given the chance.
I en sr-ake a gun out of another
fellow's holster like nobodv's
business." He rose and propped
open the tent Anne followed him.
snapped her fingers snd slapped
her right foot on the clav, almost
as level and sleek as a dance floor.
Mackey tuned uo on "Lonesome
Road." directing Anne, "Now
dance."

She stood at loss for a mo
ment and then asked Sherwood;
"Did you ever do the Apache
Dance in school? Could wa to
this music?"
"We can do anything wa hava
to," be assured her.
She ran 'into the tent and got
a long striped scarf and tied it
about nit waist. She felt strangely
light-hearted as if she had drunk
of Omar's "Cup that clears today
of past regret and future fears
"Don't be too rough, remember
this dress." she warned him.
He smiled into her eyes. "I'll be
gentle," he promised, and she felt
that in some obscure way he waa
teasing her. "We'll try a tango
next" he said.
"Ready," shouted Mackey, and
started the music with a flourish.
One of the camels began to dance.
His master made him kneel, muz
zled him and sat down beside
him.
Sherwood whispered In Anne'a
ear as he whirled her, "Wish
they'd all dismount"
The cook and his assistant were
clearing away the table in the
tent Another camel became rest
less and was brought to his knees.
The audience clapped when she
finished. Sherwood said, "You've
a very pretty kick."
Mackey struck up an old waltz
tune and Sherwood came over
and took Anne in his arms and
circled the dancing space to the
slow sweet music She felt a
tenseness about him as if he were
holding himself under iron con
trol. "Our audience believes that this
is our wedding night, Anne," and
he kissed her, guiding her into the
tent
Mackey tumbled after them and
snatched close the flaps. He was
trembling with excitement Then
Anne saw a revolver in Sher
wood's hand and remembered his
drooping down by one of the sol
diers several times.
"Now what?" she demanded.
"Nothing, I'm afraid," he said.
'The next move is theirs. Wt
know only that they won't harm
vou in a way that is called "mur
der" in this part of the world."
They hearl voices, unexcited, the
grumbling of the camels as they
rose and the slow shame of pad
ded feet
"We'll probably hear from them
as soon as the fellow discovers
the loss of his gun," surmised
Mackey and put the harmonica
to his mouth again.
Anne looked longingly at the
pallet in one corner of the tent
and then sat down on the rug,
drawing her golden, fluffy skirts
ihout her. Presently she rested
her head on her knees. She wat
unbearably drowsy and weak.
and wnen she looked up again
with an effort she ssw that Sher
wood's head was weaving from
side to side. She thought for a
moment he must be drunk.
' I ve been drugged, he mut
tered, making an ineffectual effort
to rise to his feet.
Anne put a hand to her throat
Now she knew what was the mat
ter with her.
Mackey slared from one to the
other of them in consternation.
"Those stuffed olives!" he cried
suddenly. "I thought it was funny
we'd hsve anything so foreign tc
the country as stuffed olives:
They banked on every one of us
eating them. Well. I didn't He
took the gun from Sherwood's
nerveless hand and went out
Anne managed to crawl to the
pallet before she lost conscious
ness. Deserted
THE sun was shining warm on
the tent when she woke up
She rose and stumbled to the tent
entrance and looked out
The floor of the basin lav bare
of movement except for a light
Dreeze rippling the surface of the
tiny lake. No man. no camel, not
even the signs of their campflre
naa neen leit Her swimming suit
and the men's trunks hung on the
tent lines where they had been
thrown the night before.
Then she saw Sherwood's hodv
lying, face down on the path to
the talis.
The next thing she knew, the
lay on the pallet again and some
one was gently shaking her shoul
der trying to waken her.
She lifted heavy lids and met
Sherwood's troubled grey eyes,
the hair on top of his head
ruffled into unkept ringlets.
"You're alive and unharmed,"
she exclaimed with growing won
der and delight."
So are you." he replied as If
the words wera needed to aive
him conviction of the fact "1
found you lying outside and you
wouldn't w aken so I let you sleep
while I explored."
He helped her sit uo and they
rested a bit. her shoulder against
his breast The tent flaps had been
thrown back and they could gart
out on the lonely barren land
scape briflht with sunlight. Pres.
ently she moved away that she
might look into his fsee the more
easily. He had shaved, she saw,
and changed to whipcords.
"What do you know?" she
asked rummaging for a comb in
her hag.
"Only what my eves tell me.
You and I are here absolutely
alone. Mackey gone the natives
tone the camels gone. The camel
fleas gone. The lake is too salt
for a shrimp to live in. Even
green mold refuses to grow on
the barren clay of the stream
bank from the falls to the lake."
"We have no food, no fuel, no
cup, and no tool or weapon ex
cept my safety razor and your
Nagara dagger."

MAIL DELIVERY BY SEXTANT
In January. 1336. a letter arrived at the San Francisco post office addressed simply in larl
tuda and longitude. Postal officials calltd in Captain T. J. Mahtr of the U. S. Coast and Geo
dttic Survey, who unlimbered his saxtant. took bearings, and announced the position as
near the intersection of Frederick and Ashbury streets. Sure enough, it developed that the
family so addressed lived only a few doors awayl They had given the latitude and longitude
of their home to a visiting friend a short time before.
