I Had It been his Imagina tion . . .7 No, no) For he saw the door opening warily for the width of half an Inch, and, without seeing the; speaker, he heard the ancient rit ual words of the Lodge: "Who Is the one that cometh knocking?" Instinctively, he gave the right reply: "A pilgrim!" "Where do you travel, O pil grim?" "Toward Allah the One, the All-Merciful, the Lord of Day break!" "With whom do you travel, O pilgrim?" "With Mohammed, the Prophet, the Adored on whom the Peace!" "Where is your strength, O pil grim?" "In the Iron about my wrist!" "Where is the iron, O pilgrim?" "Here!" as Lincoln put his wrist through the slit of the door. There was then silence. Silence, ; queerly waiting; and the purple rush of the night. ! Then words came: "Enter with God, O pilgrim!" ! The door opened wide. It closed behind him a few seconds later with a dry, dramatic little click of finality. TT was a woman who had asked him the password and let him in. She stood there, sharply out-; lined in the lemon rays of the! candle which she was holding.; She was very small, very wizen and bent, her dead-white face I mass of finely etched wrinkles, yet; with highly rouged cheeks and. her lips painted a bright crimson.: "Horrible old hag!" he thought ! Who might she be? One of the Bl Hassanyich. : (surely. But who? He had no Idea. Yet she knew him. For shei called him by name his Moslem, name. ' "Terek!" she said, hi a trem-i ulous voice. "Terek el-Medja-1 hiril" : Her eyes the only thing about tier of any beauty, immense, deep-' Ibrown, gold-flecked gazed at Ihim with a sort of pleading ex pectancy. He did not speak, still rwondered who she was; and she continued: "Don't you remember me? Oh t don't you, don't you, don't you?" He did not He told her so. "You see,". he suggested apolo getically, "there were so many of us in the days gone by." "But to quote your own words." Ishe rejoined slowly, "there was Only one like met Aye only one like me in all the world!" ( '- "Who " he demanded "who: iore you? Won't you tell me?" I She came a step nearer. "I," she said, "am Sitt Fosiha." ! He regarded her incredulously. "You " he stammered "you i are . . . ?" Her laughter rose shrilly, trag ically. "Yes!" she cried. "Sitt Fosiha! 'Do you remember now? Do you remember how you swore upon i the Koran that you would never forget me never, never, never?" He swallowed hard. He was conscious of remorse and, too, of pity. "We," he whispered, "were young then. So was our love young." "During youth," she countered, !love Is a flower. And when we grow old, it withers into hay and then the oxen eat it" ' . Again he swallowed hard. Sitt Fosiha he said to himself f this wizen, painted old hag . . . o ICHE had been a member of the Bi Hassanyieh: and he hail met her at a time when he had re ceived six weeks' furlough for "distinguished service," and had spent it all with his native friends and most of It with her. His first love it had been and how profound it had seemed, leap ing all barriers of ethical and re ligious inheritance. A deep, true passion that ho had been sure could never end. Well it had ended. His furlough had been over. Ho had been promoted to second lieu tenant; had been sent to Dakar. He gave a little shiver, almost of repulsion, as he recalled how once she had been dearer to him than the dwelling of kings, how she had lain in his arms, how on her lips he had tasted life's most amazing beauty and glory and HOME SWEET HOME IN FILET CROCHET t sweetness; and, a second later, obeying an impulse, perhaps to I make up for the ugly reaction, he bowed and kissed her hand. She jerked it away. : "Is it my hand this day?" she exclaimed. "Ah by the Prophet Mohammed the Adore d! and years aso it was my mouth." She was silent. "I hnto you, Terek!" she went on, with a hysterical catch in her voice. "You oh . . .?" "Yes. And do you know why? Not because you have forgotten me? For lives there a man in Allah's seven creations who does not forget? I hnte you because age has come to me, dimming my eyes, shriveling my breasts, wrin kling my skin. And you you are still young ..." tTo Be Continued) Japan has virtually everything she needs, raw materials, man power, peoples that can be forced to labor. All she needs is time.
