jianied by two of Tu-Kila-Ki as Kyes,
yet apparently on some strange and
friendly message. She beckoned im-
periouxly with one finger to ioko to
cross the line. The bbadow roe, and
wiihout one word of explanation went
out to siieak to her. The woman fiave j
her mer.suge in short, sharp sentences. !
"S'e have found out all," slie sa'd,
breathing hard. "'i-'ire and Water
have learned it. Hut Tu-Kila-Klla
liimself knows nothing. We have
found out that the King of the Kain ,
has discovered the secret of the Great !

saw and learned and undersUKKl. But
they said nothing to Tu-Kila-Kila. l or
my eounse. was wise: I planned that
they should not, w.th Fire and Water.
Fire and Wat r arid all the people of

has come that there should arise
among us a new '1 u-Kila-kila. This
one let his blood fall out upon ; he dust
ol the ground His luck has gone wo

"Then for what have you come?"
Toko asked, ail awestruck. It was ter
rible to him for a woman to meddle in
such high matters.
"1 have come," I la an wereo. laying
her hand on his arm, and ho ding her

Sho noddod thrice, with her hands
on her forehead, and withdrew us
stealthily as she hud come through
the jungle. The Kyes ol Tu-Kila-Kila
lulling inV lino, remained behind, and
kept watch Ujon the huts with the
closest apparent scrutiny.
More ttian ever thv were hemmod

The .Shadow went back and reported
to Folix. Felix, turning it over in Ins
own roin 1, wondered and debated. Was
this true, or a trap to lure him to de
struction; As the night wore on. and the hour
drew nitrh. Muriel sat beside her
lew.rwl and lover, in blank (lesoair and
' agony. Hw could she ever allow him
to leave tier now.- now coiuu sue
venture to remain alone with Mali in
her hut in this last extremity' it was
awful to be so girt with mysterious en
emies. "I mu-t go with you, Felix: I !
must go too:" she cried over am over
again. ' I daren't remain behind with
all these awful men. And then, if he
kills either of us, ho will kill us tit
least both together."
. Hut Felix know he might do nothing
of the sort. A more terrible chance
was still in reserve. He might spare
Muriel. And aainst this awful possl
bi lity he felt it his cuty now to guard
at ail' haaril. ,
"No, Muriel,'' he said, kissing her,
pale hand. "I must go alone You
can't go with me. If I return, wo will
have gained at, least a respite, till the
Australasian may turn up. If 1 don't,
you will at any rate have strength of
mind left to swallow the poison, before
Tu-Kila-Kila comes to claim you."
Hour after hour passed by slowly,
and Felix and the Shadow watched the
the Blars at the door, to know when
the hour (or the attempt had arrived.
The eves of Tu-Kila-Kila, peering sil
ent from list beyond tho line, saw ;
them watching all tho time, but g;ive I
no sign or token of disapproval. With ;
heads bent low, and tangled hair
about their faces, they stood like stat

A STRANG B ALLEY.
In Tu-Kila-Kila temple-hut, mean
while, the jealous, revengeful god, en
shrined among his skeletons, was hav
ing in his turn an anxious and doubt
ful time of it. Kver since his sac;ed
blood had stained the dust ot earth by
the Frenchman's cottage and in his
own temple, Tu-Kila-Kila, for all his
bluster, had been deeply stirred uud
territied in his inmost soul by that un
lucky portent. A savage even if he bo
a god. is always superstitious. Could
it be that his own lime was, indeed,
drawing nighV that he who bad re
morselessly killeu anil eaten so many
hundreds of human victims, was him
self to fall a prey to some more suc
cessful couiuelitor? Had the white
faced stranger, the King of the Kain,
'really learned the secrets of the'Ireat
Taboo fr om the Soul of all dead par
roty Hid that mysterious bird Biieak

Wondered anu doubted. His suspicion
were keen and deeply aio scd. l ate
that n ght he still i a ked by tbes cred
banvan-tree. and when al lant ho re
tired to his own inner uhmne. white
with the grinning s,u,l. of 'ho victi'i s
he had devoured, it was with strict in
junctions to Fire and Water, and to
his Kyes that wat lied there, to bring
word at oneo of any projected aggres
sion on the part oi the stranger.
Within tho temulo-hut, however,
l'la awaited hi.n. That was a pleasant
change. Tho beautiful, supp e, satin
skinne.I I'olym sia i looked more beau
tiful and more treacherous thn ever
that fateful evening. Her groat brown
limbs, smooth and glossy as pearl, wore
seiolf by a narrow girdle or waist
band of green and bCarlet leaves,
twined s .irally around her. Armlets
of nautilus sheli threw up tho i.uii ty
pi mi, ness of her j-o t. ro nd foreurm.
A garland hting festooned across one
shapely shou dor: her bosom was bare
or but hali-bid'ten by the crimson hib
iscus that nestled voluptuously uixin it.
As Tu-Kila-Kila entered, she lifted her
large eyes, and, smiling, showed two
even rows of pearly white teeth. "My
master has como'" she cried, holding
up both lissome arms with a gesture to
welcome him. "The irreat god re
laxes his care ot the world lor a while.
Ail goes well. He leaves his sun to
sleep and his stars to shine, and he re
tires to rest on the unworthy bosom of
her. his mate, his meat, that is hon
ored to love him."
Tu-Kila-Kila was scarcely just then
in a mood for dalliance. "The Wueen
of the Clouds come hither to-morrow,"
ho answered, casting a somewhat con
temptuous glance at Fla's more dusky
anu solid charms. "I go to seek her
with the wedding gilts early In the
morning. For a week she shall bo
mine. And after that -" he lilted his
tomahawk and brought it down On a
huge i lock of wood siguiflcently.
l'la smiled once more, that deep,
treacherous smile of hers, and showed
her white teeth even deeper than ever.
"If my lord, the great god, rises so
early tomorrow," sho said, sidling up
toward him voluoluously, "to seek one
more brldo for his sacred temple, all
the more reason he should take his
rest and sleep soundly to-night. Is he
not a god"'' Are not hia limbs tirody
I oes he not need divine silence and
slumber?"
f u-Klia Kila pouted. "I could sleep
mote soundly,'' ne saiu who a snort,
"if I know what my enemy, the Korong,
is doing. I have set my Kyesto watch
him, yet I do not feel secure. They
are not to he trusted. 1 shall tie bap-
Kier far when I have killed and oaten
im." He passed his hand across his
bosom with a reflective air. You have

Cla raised herself on her elbow, and
gazed snako-llko Into his face. "My
lord's lvcs are everywhere," she t-al i,
i reverently, with every mark of respect.

will grieve at It: To-nlfht, Klre and
Water keep guard and watch overyou.
Whoever would hurt you-must pass
Through Fire and Water before he
reach your door. Fire would burn,
Water would drown. This Is a Great
Taboo. No stranger dare face It."
Tu Kila-KUa lifted himself up In bis
thrasontc mood. "II be did," he cried,
swelling hlmsolf, "I would shrivel him

A .Note of Kindness.
An English woman living in the
town of Uergen in No way during
tiian v vears. was in the habit, of pre
paring every Christinas an KngIKh
dinner of roast beef and plum pud
ding, to which she invited all of the
Enli-ih sailors whohapjiened to.be in
the port at that time
The sailors ate, drar.k, and were
merry, and we ,hope wert on their
way liett r men, as everybody should
be belter for the touch of kindness
given to cbeer the hours .f life.
Hut that was not the only result of
her gentle deed.
An American woman happened to
be in ilergen on Christmas, heard of
this dinner, and coming home to
America gave an account of It to
some of her friends.
They all listened with pleasure;
but one said, "why cannot we do
likewise?"
They were all rea;lv to follow.
They all lived in a large seaioit
town. When the next winter came
they formed themselves Into a Scan
dinavian dinner club, and gave much
time to me coucucuun oi uiuieiij j
unknown dishes. !
Thev sought out all the Norwegian,
Swed.sh. and Danish sailors in port.
and invited them to a home dinner
on Ch istmas day. The room was

goodwill. The men wh probably
would have spent the day drinking in
taverns were reminded of their
homes, thslr wive, and chi dren, and
of the holy purpose of the day.
It is not the song of one bird that
cheers the summer morning, but It
is the song caught up and echoed
from every Held aud forest, until the
air Is turned Into inusiv
This little note of kindness has
been echoed once. Can It go farther?

The Little Helper..
The Little helpers is the title of a
club of young women in Dunkirk
whose members sew for the poor. The
name is scarcely appropriate now, hut
it was entirely fitting when the club
was formed. Years ago, when the
present members were little girls, they
formed a sewing class. Later they
made articles for poor people, and they
have kept on until now they are all
young women, but their townsfolk still
know them as the Little Helpers.
A l'retijr KngllHh Fashion.
One of the prettiest of English fash
ions is that ot painting the name and
the favorite flower of the owner on his
pet chair. A chair seen recently in a
charming home was beautifully Indi
vidualized by this treatment. It was a
low slat sewing chair that had belonged
to the grandmother of its present own
er, and it is as strong today as it was
70 years ago. This clever girl gave it
three coats of white enamel paint, then
gilded the two balls terminating the
two side posts. On the top slat across
the back she painted La France roses,
her favorites. On the middle slat she
inscribed her name, "Mary," in up and
down English writing, and on the bot
tom slat were old fashioned pinks, her
grandmother's posies. The cushie i of
the seat was pink India silk, with a
pattern of delicae green leaves, tied
Dn with ribbons uf two colors. The
nutograph and the blossoms stamped
'.he chair with an unique individuality,
and it was altogether quite as "fetch
'.ng" as those seen across the water.
