She replied to him softly.
“Suey-Koo,” he thought she said.
“Where do you come from?”
' She uttered a little nervous
| laugh.
“I am the daughter ,of Chai
; Hung. The police have driven my
. father from his home. They came
1 and searched the house—and I ran
i away. In the darkness, I saw the
1 lights of your window ”
* He took her cold, trembling fin
j gers between his own and forced
! her, half-unwilling, up the steps to
I a comfortable chair. She sat on
I the extreme edge, staring with
childlike surprise at the unaccus
tomed surroundings.
“You must’ have something to
eat, Suey-Koo,” he said.
She shook her head.
“I am not hungry,. I only want
to go home.”
He remembered that he was
clad only in the sarong and singlet
in which he was accustomed to
I sleep.
“Wait just a little while,” he
told her, “and I will take you.”
As he changed with feverish
energy into the suit of khaki drill
i he had so recently discarded, the
wave of feeling that her coming
had provoked swept like an ever
swelling stream throughout his
whole ■ being overwhelming the
voice of Reason. Forgotten—in his
I wild eagerness for consuest .of
I this timid, fragile creature, lovely
|as the lotus-flower —were the ini
| mutable laws of east and west, the
j warning of Pennington, her very
I connection, in fact, with the ban
, dit who controlled the dread move
■ ments of the Yellow Seven.
; Suey-Koo had stumbled into the
burglar-alarm that Wallace bad
i made, and yet it never occurred to
Brabazon—secure in the fool’s
paradise that his own frailty had
. built up—that the unerring finger
of the great Chai-Hung was behind
. all this, and that this seemingly
helpless girl was but another of the
. astute Oriental’s cunning instru
, ments, instructed to decoy the plan
. ter to her father’s lair!
A girl in Kuala Lumpur had told
, Pennington that Barbazon was ir
resistible! Whatever the signifi
, cance of Suey-Koo’s midnight mis
i sion may have been, with the home
ward journey barely half completed
. se found herself nestling content
edly within the Englishman’s encir
cling arm; for all the world as if
that member had every right to be
. where it was. }
“Brabazon!”
From somewhere behind him, the
planter heard himself called by
name. He released the girl and
swung round.
Standing in the open space be
tween the hutments that he had
just left, he saw Wallace and the
Pathan watchman. Brabazon waited
until they had caught him up.
“What is it, Wallace?” he de
manded.
“Look here, Brabazon, I’m sorry
to but in and all that, but isn’t this
a trifle unwise Th? 1 beyond
our wire’s simply swarming with
Chai-Hung’s men.”
Brabazon started.
“Who told you that?”
“Pennington,” returned the as
sistant. “I’ve just seen him. He
told me to advise you to send the
watchman with Miss Chai-Hung.”
“Pennington,” Brabazon’s brain
i t [ed. “How the devil did Im
know?” lie bit his lip. ‘‘l suppose
he’s hanging around on one of his
'Lunts. Os course. Chai-Hung's
men are about. They’re looking
for t.he girl. She’s lost.”
Tie faced Wallace defiantly. The
assistant dropped a hand on his
•shoulder.
“Don’t go any farther—otnight.
It’s too risky.”
Braoazon felt for his pine.
He strode back to where
waited.
“MV watchman will see you
home,” he said.
Her face fell. Her hands stole
to his sleeves. The, look she .be
stowed on him. stirred the fires
within. Trembling with an emotion
that was utterly beyond his power
to suppress, he pressed her fingers
to his lips. In all this monotonous
existence of .which- he .was fast
growing tired, was the
brightest, thing he had encountered.
“You will come and see me?”
she whispered presently.
“Where can I find you—and
when?” "
When Brabazon again joined
Wallace, the latter noticed that the
cheeks of the manager were flushed
beneath the tan of years. Until
they parted at the snot where two
paths met, neither spoke a word.
The residence of Chai-Kung was
surrounded by a high pallisade.
There were three gates, see close
together—a large portal with nar
rower entrances on either side. The
tall Chinaman in greasy black
who leant against this effective
screen, was rolling a cigaret with
practiced skill, using tobacco
which he fished from ine inner re
cesses of a rubber pouch. He clip
ped off the stray ends with a pair
of folding scissors, shielded the
match with his hands, then reached
up and swung himself over on to
the other side, dropping.on to the
soft earth within a bare twenty
feet of a bamboo joss-house with
an open front. There were tiled

Alabama Men to Visit Ashburn
and Study Turner County
Plan
SELMA, Ala., Aug. B.—Plans
for making Selma a poultry mar
ket, by which thousands of dol
' lars will be distributed among the
farmers and small landowners an
nually are going forward under
full steam, although the date for
the first poultry sale to be held
here early in September has not
yet been set. Prior to that time
a member of the poultry .commit
tee from the Chamber of Com
merse will visit Ashburn, Ga.,
where a thriving poultry market has
been built up and will study the
methods employed there, in order
to inaugurate the same plan here.
It is said that Turner county peo
ple engage in an extensive poultry
business, which they find highly
profitable, the value of their poul
try, sold in Ashburn, exceeding
that of other crops. Shipments of
poultry are made in carload lots
every week and front data already
in the hands of the Chamber of
Commerce, it is known that bank
ers and business men in that sec
tion say the poultry market has
enabled the farmer in many in
stances to get on a cash basis.
Construct Pens.
Pens are to be constructed and
a regular poultry market will be
established by a whole-ale grocery
dealer here, who will buy all poul
try at a few cents a pound under
the New York market prices. In
crease of weight in the poultry
shipped from Selma io the East
will make his profit, it is figured.
Raising chickens even on a small
scale is profitable, it is shown by
studying the question ,if good
stock used.
Kopecky Flo-k.
In the case of Miss Hattie
Kopecky, living several miles from
the citv on the Orrville road, good
nrofit has been made on a small
flock of light Brahma:. Miss
Konecky has no incubator , no
chicken yards and enlv a crudely
built hen house, but with little-out
lav she has mack several hundred
dollars. Some fine hens and a
' oekcrel were purchased, and or
dinary care taken to see that the
baby chicks were fed and cared
for. Thoroughbred chickens, like
cowff'or hogs, grow- off faster and'
make’better table mea‘, thus prov

ing more profitable than ether
chickens. Miss Kopecky sold her
chickens for 40 cents a pound, and
she figured a good profit.
Chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys
and guineas will all be sough’ in
the Selma poultry and
farmers will find'it to their advan
tage to bring their fowls to town.
Better Than Cotton,
It is said that SIOO can be made
on chickens easier than it can be
I made on a bale of cotton, and for
, this reason landowners are urged
i to encourage their tenants to raise
I poultry as a side line, to bring in
J ready money through the year. In
' the case of several' negroes over

I money returns have been reported,
I without interfering with their crop
activities.
Skimmed milk makes excellent
chicken feed, it is stated, and far
mers engaged in the dairy busi
ness or creamery can turn their
skimmed milk to good advantage
by fattening poultry for the mar
ket with it.
NEW SPIRIT INFUSED
INTO GROVELAND BODY
GROVELAND, Fla,., Aug. B.
Groveland Board of Trade, at its
regular monthly meeting, received
applications and accepted sixty
four new members into the organi
zation. This is believed to be the
largest number of new members
ever received into a civic organ
ization in Florida at one meeting
at least Goveland will boast of
the record until someone challeng
es us. J
In addition to receiving sixty
.fojir new members there was an
attendance of- more than 50 per
cent of the members of the organ
ization at the meeting. The spirit
in which the l neon'-> of Groveland
are going about their civic up
building, is unsurpassed and on ev
ery hand one can see the develop
ment and progress in the town,
which is the result of concentrat 'd
efforts on the part of its citizens. ‘

PEAR CROP IN THOMAS
IS COMPLETE FAILURE
THOMASVILLE, Aug. B.—The
pear crop this year has been prac
tically a failure in Thomas county
this season and many trees have no
fruit on them at all. One car com
posed of LeConte and Keiffers was
made up here and shipped North,
the shippers expecting to get a fine
price for them. The market had
dropped before the car reached its
destination, however, and there was
no demand for the pears. Those
are probably the only ones that
will be sent from here this year.

FOR CONSTIPATION
Black-Draught Recommended by
an Arkansas Farmer Wbo Has
Used It, When Needed,
for 25 Years.
Hatfield, Ark.—Mr. G. W. Parsons, a
well-known farmer on Route 1, this place,
says: “I keep Black-Draught in my home
all the time. It is the best atl-around
medicine 1 have ever found for the liver
and for constipation. We begah using it
25 or more years ago and have used it
whenever needed since. I have never
found any other medicine as good for
constipation, and that was what 1 suffer
ed with till I began using Black-Draught.
Black-Draught corrected this condition,
and now we use it for the liver and for
indigestion—a tight and sluggish feeling
after meals, for bad taste in the mouth
and sour stomach.
"My wife uses it for headache and
biliousness. It sets on our shelf and we
don’t let it get out. It has been a great
help to us. I believe a great deal of
sickness is caused by hurried eating and
constipation, and Black-Draught, if taken
right, will correct this condition.”
