[UNDER'TWO FLAGS Cecil raised tbe body reverently in bis arms and with long, laborious ef fort drew Its weight up across the sad dle of the charger, which sh od patient ly waiting by, turning Its doolie eyes wjjth a plaintive, wondering sadness on the form of the rider It had loved. Then he mounted himself, and with the head of his lost comrade borne upon his arm and rested gently on his breast he rode westward over the great P'.aJn to where his mission lay. CHAFTEII XVII. ' #"*"*' HUS burdened he made his J[ way for over two leagues. The r wr, • hurricane never abated, and VuanJ the blinding dust rose around him in great waves. The horse fell lame. lie hid to dismount and move j slowly and painfully over the loose, ! heavy soil on foot, raising the drooping la ad of the lifeless rider. It was bitter, ! weary, cruel travail, of an intolerable labor, of an intolerable pain. At last lie drew near the caravansary where ln> had been directed to obtain a change of horses. It stood midway in the dis tance that he had to traverse. The groups in tiie court paused* fa their converse and in their occupations and looked in awe at the gray charger with Its strange burden and the French chasseur who came sfl blindly forward like a man feeling his passage through the dark. Cecil moved slowly on into their midst, his hand on the horse’s rein. Then a great darkness covered i Ids sight. He swayed to and fro and j fell senseless on the gray stone of the paved court. When consciousness re turned to him, lie was lying on a stoue bench in the shadow of the wall, with the coolness of the fountain water bub bling nearand a throng of lean, bronzed, eager faces about him. Instantly he remembered all. “Where is he?” he asked. They knew that he meant the dead man and answered him In a hushed murmur of many voices. They had placed the body gently down within In a darkened chamber. A shiver passed over him. Ho stretched his hand out for water that they held to him. “Saddle me a fresh horse. I have my work to do.” He knew that for no •friendship or grief or suffering or self pity might a soldier pause by the wayside while bis errand was still undone, his duty unful filled He drank the water thirstily; then, reeling slightly from tlje weakness that was stilj upon him, hf rose, reject ing thtjir offers of aid. “Take me to him,” he said simply. They under stood him. He motioned them all back with his hand and went Into the gloom of the chamber alone. Not one among them followed. When he came forth again, the reck less and riotous soldiers of France turn ed silently and reverentially away, so that they should not look upon his face, for it was well known through out the army that no common tie had bound together the exiles of England, and the fealty of comrade to comrade was sacred in their sight. The fresh animal, saddled, was held ready outside the gates. He crossed the court, moving still like n man with out sense of what he did. The name that some of the hurrying grooms shouted loudly in their impatience broke through his stupor and reached him. It was that of the woman whom, however madly, he loved with all the strength of a passion born out of utter hopelessness. He turned to the out rider nearest him. “You are of the Princess Corona's suit? What does she do here?” “Madame travels to see the country and the war.” “The war? This Is no place for her. Tbe land is alive with danger, rife with death.” “Miladi travels with the duke, her brother. Miladi does not know what fear is.” “But”— The remonstrance died on his lips. He stood gazing out from the gloom of the arch at a face close to him, on which the sun shone full, a face unseen for 12 long years and which a moment before laughing and careless in the light changed and grew set and rigid and pale with the pallor of an unutter able horror. Cecil brought his hand to his brow in military salute, passed with the impassiveness of a soldier who passed a gentleman, reached liis charger and rode away upon his errand over the brown and level ground. - lie had known his brother in that fleeting glance, but lie hoped that his brother would see no more in him than a French trooper who bore resemblance hy a strange hazard to one long be lieved to be dead and gone. The in stinct of generosity, the instinct of self sacrifice, moved him now as long ago one fatal night they had moved him to bear the sin of his mother’s darling as his own. *•••**• Within six and thirty hours the in structions he bore were in the tent of the major whom they were to direct, and he himself returned to the cara vansary to fulfill with his own hand to the dead those last offices which he would delegate to none. It was in the coolness and the hush of the night, with the great stars shin ing clearly oyer the of the plains, that they made the single grave under a leaning shelf of rock, with the ! somber fans of a pine spread above it i and nothing near but the sleeping i herds of goats. The sullen edhoof the j soldiers’; muskets gave Its only ftmeral requiem.' When all was over, Cecil still re mained there alone. Thrown down up on the grave, he never moved as hour after hour went by. To others that lonely and unnoticed tomb would be as nothing—only one among the thousand marks left on the bosom of the violat ed earth by the ravenous and savage lusts of war—but to him it held all that had bound him to his lost youth, his lost country, his lost peace. Suddenly he started with a thrill of almost sh perstitious fear as through the silence he heard a name whispered—the name of his childhood, of his past. lie sprang to his feet, and as he turned in the moonlight he saw once more bis broth er's face, pale as the face of the dead and strained with an agonizing dread. Concealment was no longer possible. Cecil was tlie first to break the si lence. He moved nearer with a rapid movement, and his hand fell heavily on the other’s shoulder. “Have you lived stainlessly since?” ' “God is my witness—y’es! But you— you -they said that you were dead!” Cecil’s hand fell from his shoulder.; There was that in the words which smote him more cruelly than any Arab; steel could have done. There was the accent of regret. “I am dead,” lie said simply—“dead to the world and you." He who bore the title of Iloyallieu covered his face. “How have you lived?” he whispered hoarsely. “Honorably. Let that suffice. And you?” “In honor, too, I swear! That was my first disgrace and my last. You bore the weight of my shame! Good God, what can I say? Such nobility, such sacrifice! We believed you were dead. They said so; there seejned ev ery proof, but when I saw you yester day I knew you—l knew you, though you passed me as a stranger. I staid on here. They told me you would re turn. Ged, what agony this day and night have been!” , Cecil was ,silent still. He knew that this agony had been the dread lest he should be living. There were many emotions at war in him—scorn, pity and wounded love ! and pride ton propd to sue for a grati tude denied. Long ago lie had accept ed the weight of an alien crime r.r.d borne it as his own. To undo now n’l that lie had done in the past, to flin t c t to rulmiow the one whom ho had rn vc 1 at such a cost, to turn, after 12 y rs, and forsake the man, all coward though he was, whom he had shielded for so long—this was not possible to him. Though it would be but his own birthright that be would demand, his L, ... "Have i/ou lived stainlessly sincet" own Justification? that he would estab lish, it would seem to him like a treacherous and craven thing. All seemed uttered, without words, by their gaze at each other. He could not speak with tenderness to this cra ven who had been false to the fair re pute of their name, and he would not speak with harshness. The younger man stood half stupefied, half mad- I deeod. “Bertie, Bertie!” he stammered. “On my soul I never doubted that the story of your death was true. No one did. If I had known you lived, I would have said that you were innocent. I would. 1 would have told them hou% I forged your friend’s name and your own when I was so desperate that I hardly knew wliat 1 did. But they said that you were killed, and 1 ! thought then—then—it was not worth while. It would have broken my fa ther’s heart. God help me! I was a coward! I am in your power—utterly In your power,” he moaned in his fear. ”1 stand in jour place. I bear your title. You know that our father and our brother are dead? All that I have inherited is yours. Do you know that, ; since you have never claimed it?” “I know it.” “And you have never come forward j to take your rights?”' “What I did not do to clear my own honor I was not likely to do merely to hold a title.” “But, great heaven, thisJife of yours? It must be wretchedness.” “Perhaps. It has at least no disgrace , in It.!* , , Tlie riftdy hud tfx* onlyYsternness of contempt that hefhad, suffered himself to show.’ It stung down Jo his listen- | er’s |oul. “No, no!” he murmured. “You are happier than I. You have no remorse to bear. And yet—to tell the world "that I am guilty!” “You need never tfll it. I shall not." He spoke, quite quietly, quite patient ly. Yet he well know and had well weighed all he surrendered In that promise—the promise to condemn him self to a barren and hopeless fate for ever. ‘ * “Let us pax-t now and forever. Leave Algeria at once. That is all I ask.” Then, without another word that .could add reproach or seek for grhti-. : lude, he turned ami went away over flie great, dim level of the African waste, while the man whom he had saved sat as in stupor, gazing at the brown shadows, and the sleeping herds, and the falling stars that ran across the sky, and doubting whether the voice he had heart! and the face upon Wtiich he had looked were not the vi sions of a waking dream. CHAPTER XYni. r V y IQW that night was spent Cecil IIJ could never recall in full. Vague memoriesremained with him of wandering over the Shadowy country, of seeking by bodily fatigue to kill the thoughts rising in him. The full consciousness of all that be had surrendered in yiekltng up afresh his heritage rolled in on his memory like the wave of some heavy sea that sweeps down all before it. He moved slowly back over the desolate tracks of land stretched between him and tlie Algerian halting place. He had no fear that he would find his brother there. He know too well Foe nature with which he had to deal. While yet the caravansary was distant the piteous cries of a mother goat caught his ear. She was bleating be side a water course, into which her kid of that spring had fallen. He stooped anti with some little difficulty rescued the little goat for its delighted dam. As he bent over the water he saw something glitter beneath it. He caught It in his hand and brought It up. It was the broken half of a chain of gold, with a Jewel in each link. He changed color as he saw It. He remembered It as one that Venetla Corona had worn on the morning that he had been ad mitted to her. He stood loQking-at the shining links, with their flashes of pre cious r stones. They seemed to have voices that spoke to him of her about whose beautiful white throat they had been woven—voice* that whispered In cessantly in his ear, “Take up your birthright, and you will be free to sue to her at least, if not to win her.” No golden and jeweled plaything ever teidpted a starving-man to theft as this tempted him now to break the pledge he had Just given. His birthright! He longed for It for this woman’s sake—for the sake, at | least, of the right to stand before her as an equal and to risk his chance with others who sought her smile—as he had done for any other thing which, with that heritage, would have become his. Yet he knew that, even were he to be false to his word and go i forward and claim his right, he would never be able to prove his innocence. He could never hope to make the world believe him unless the real crim j inal made that confession which he j held himself forbidden by his own past ! action ever to extort. It was almost noon when, under the ! sun scorched branches of the pine that stretched its somber fans up against the glittering azure of the morning skies, he approached the gates of the Algerine house of call, a study for the colors of Gerome, with the pearly gray of its stone tints and the pigeons wheeling above its corner towers. Cecil went within and bathed and dressed and drank some of the thin, cool wine that found its way hither in the wake of the French army. The trampling of horses on the pavement j below roused his attention. A thrill | of hope went through him that his j brother might have lingering eon i science, latent love enough to have ! made him refuse to obey the bidding to leave Afx-ica. He rose and leaned out. Amid the little throng of riding horses, grooms and attendants who made an open way through the poly glot crowd of an Algerian caravan sary at noon he saw the one dazzling face of which he had so lately dream ed by the water freshet in the plains. It was but a moment’s glance, for she had already dismounted from her mare j and was passing within pith two I other ladies of her party. But in that | one glance he knew her. He went ; down into the court below and found i her suit. “Tell your misti-ess that I, Louis ! Victor, have some jewels which belong to her and ask her permission to re store them to her hands,” he said to one of her equerries. “Give then lo me if you have picked them up,” said the man, putting out uj his hand for them. Cecil closed his hand upon them. “Go and do as I bid you.” Tlie equerry paused, doubtful wheth er or not to resist the tone and the words. A Frenchman's respect for the j military uniform prevailed. He went within. In the best chamber of the caravan sary Venctia Corona was sitting, list less in the heat, when her attendant entered. She had heard tlie day be fore a story that had touched her of a soldier who had been slain mossing the , plains and had been brought through j the hurricane and the sandstorm at every risk by his comrade, \vho had chosen to endure all peril and wretch edness rather than leave the dead body to the vultures and the kites.

There is a man in a certain little coast community who is now to be Counted in the bachelor class, but it is not exactly liis fault. He was a rather persistent wooer, and the experience I have in mind will probably confirm this general statement. It was his last wooing experience. The woman who fig ured in the case yvas, by no .‘means young. She was well up in years, and, iti fact, had lived to lose the best part of her teeth. My bachelor made some progress. The lady looked upon him with favor for a while, and it was dur ing this time that he concluded to buy something that he thought his sweetheart needed. He bought her a brand new set of teeth, .and he got the best he could find in the market. He gave them to her and she accepted them with becoming grace, and was warmly effusive in making her acknowledgments. Another fellow came along and after singing a few of love’s softer platitudes to the old maid won her over to his side of the question and in a short time it was announc ed that she would marry her new sweetheart. The bachelor was riled. He w y as heartbroken. But he was not to quit without show ing his resentment in a more em phatic way, So he sat down and Addressed a very curt note to the v'oman who had switched her affec tions, and the substance of the note was that he wanted the fair lady to return the set of teeth he had given her. She did so and then married the other fellow', and this is the tragic part of the little love story.
