There was pity ta his heart; Brief; remorse. . But, a second later, another no tion projected Itself across the morose confusion in his brain: the idea, so simple and trite, of duty. Duty, too, was part of life. It was and he wondered if, perhaps, it was his father's New England inheritance calling the tune the finest part of it, being the most unselfish. And bis duty was clear. He must act, sharply and at once, against the conspirators, and, chiefly against the hykmoot ameer, the Man of Mystery, sitting there In bis lair south of Lake Tchad like a gigantic spider weaving a poisonous web, waiting for the dervishes who were hurrying to him to receive their orders and obey him blindly. He must go back to his house, rouse Captain Pelletier, send for the prominent men of his staff, talk over the situation, cable to xonaon, arrest wnaievw im-tu members of the Lodge he could find, despatch a large detachment of airborne troops toward Lake Tchad ... "No!" he said to himself, sud denly. He would do nothing of aha. Vhtrf. ueckect would be out or tne question. The signal drums would drone the news in all di rections within the hour. The hykmoct ameez and the emissar ies hurrying to him would flit away into the wilderness, like shadows, and simply bide their time. There was one other way. Just one. ' He remembered that, in the lands of Islam, it is never a peo ple in ferment and travail, but al ways One Man who pulls the strings, for good or for evil. One Man who is the heart, the brain, the nerve center. One Man: dreamer or doer idealist or crim inal saint or devil. . And, as often as not, the former more dangerous, because of bis "' very sincerity, than the latter. It was so in this instance. There was the One Man: the hykmoot imteez. ' Saint or devil, he would have to 1m found, dealt with. He was the heart, the brain, the nerve center. Would have to be destroyed. "You're damned right," Lincoln . Elliot said to himself. "It's up to you!'' . i A HARD undertaking. But not impossible. He knew where the man lived. Nor, coming as a messenger of the Bi Hassanyieh, would he be suspected. Fosiha, the only human being aware of his identity, was no more. He would start tonight, at once, Into the interior. He turned to go; looked down at the dead woman. She lay there, like a tiny, brittle, broken toy. A smile curled her Hips. It was a calm and queerly fcappy smile. Bury her? How and where, without at trading attention? Then he remembered that from tonight on, by order of All el Andalosi, no dervish would enter here. Nor, given the superstitious awe in which the brotherhood waa held, would a passing - native stranger. Very well. Let the Lodge itself be her tomb. It was fitting. ' Perhaps, a month or two from Bow, some snooping policeman would wonder about the ram shackle, deserted building. Would search it, discover a little heap of bones, mark it down as another unsolved African mystery. He covered Fosiha's face with a fold of her robe. "May the earth be light to you!" He spoke the Moslem prayer for the departed. "May the Prophet Mohammed the Adored on whom the Peaces open wide to you the FUNNY BUSINESS I VSlipke, stranger! It must be part of the wool conserva . . lioaolanr Achmed Abdullah gates of Paradise!" And he left the house. TIE did not dare risk a return to his own bedroom at the palace for money or weapon. But he had no need of either. For he was traveling as a dervish; and, throughout Islam, the dervish, the man of God, is the free, chartered vagabond whom no Moslem would injure and to whom all lend a helping hand. One thing, though, he had to do: send some sort of message to his second-in-c ommand and good friend, Captain Pelletier. So, at a coffee shop that was still openLhe EMBROIDERY MOTIFS FOR MANY LINENS maVrr" '" 7S77 by Alice Brooks Wondering what to give for a shower or birthday?

"I told the draft hnnrH T haA . kid, but they wouldn't listen!" asked for paper and pufVcn wrote a short note: ' "Going away on official business. Do the best you can while I am gone, and explain my absence by the most plausible lie 1ou ean think of. 1 I haue not returned or tf you haue no too rd from ni by the end of the next seven weeks, report me to the authorities as dead in the line of duty." Right he thought ta the line of duty. He went to his house. He knew where Pelletier 's bedroom was lo cated. He wrapped the note about a small stone and. with straight, true aim, tossed it through the open window. A second later, he heard a crash as of a smashed watrrglass, a startled exclamation and was off. . (To Be Continued) Wouldn't you lova to do this ...YOU CAN!
