He glanced Sack over his shoulders toward the living room and his half-finished ffleal, then drew the tumbler from the arm of his chair and sent the Soda hissing into the ahber fluid. All the time, while he strove to es tablish a mental balance, he felt fliat the girl’s eyes were fixed on slim and the mocking light that played in them made him uneasy. ’ "I am a busy man,” he protest ed, “and I am tired. I do not yet understand the motive that has brought you here.” Again- that intoxicating smile, k She leant backward over the rail so that the tightening folds pf her sarong accentuated the graceful curves of her form; the 'jarment seemed to have become fart -of- her, like the plumage of a feird or the down of a gorgeous butterfly that flutters for a brief foment in the sunlight and is gone. Moorhouse knew that she Would go—knew that she must go; but a strange, uncontrollable de fire.was swiftly building itself up Within him to postpone the mo ment of her departure. S "The Tuan-Hakim will remem ber that when I left the clearing I ran quickly into the forest. I had Jone but a little way through thp trees when something tripped mfe and I fell. One of the silver tilings that a chief had made for pie slipped from my hand and I looked up presently to see that a great. orang-China—a yellow man fell atid very fat—had picked, the thing from the grass and was looking at it.

A depend able baking powder must t ~ be employed or you do not get the full nutritious value of the wheat—nor will your bakings be as pal atable and easily digested. The same results cannot be had if you use Self Rising s Flours, or any so called ready-to-use substitute for plain flour, and good baking s powder. Food authorities and physicians agree that bak ings that do not raise properly are bad for the health. Such foods are hard to digest and f in time cause stomach trouble. Mothers who are interested in the proper growth and health of their children (and all mothers £ . . are) should never use anything but a good brand of plain flour and a time-tested leavener such as Calumet—the economy Baking Powder. Calumet has more than the ordi nary leavening strength. It raises every baking to its height of nutri tious value. It is pure and depend ; able do not look for a substitute— there is none.

There were other Chinamen in the jungle, for I could hear the bushes as they moved. The man who held the silver hand carried one arm in a black cloth and his face was very evil. After a little while he drew his arm from the ciotn and thrust under my eyes the stump where a hand had been—” ‘‘Which hand was it?” inter rupted Moorhouse quickly. "The left, tuan.” ‘‘You are sure of this?” It had come back to the D. O.’s memory that Pennington had told him how one of his men had sev ered Chai-Hung’s left hand at the wrist, "1 have reason to be sure,. be cause the silver sheath tha£ I lost was from my left hand. I—who am afraid of nothing—feared this man. 'Black Girl,’ the orang- Chaina said, 'I have more need of this thing than you, therefore I shall keep it.’ Presently from the folds of his coat he produced a knife. ‘Bring me the head of the Englishman who sat in the clear ing when you danced—and you shall have your hand.’ He walked away into the trees and it was a long while before he returned. ‘Listen,’ he said again, ‘There is a white man whom the natives call He who sees in the dark. Kill him —and I will give you hands of gold—that all other dancers may envy you.” The magistrate smiled grimly. "The Chinaman said that, did he?” The girl nodded. "It is a difficult thing,” she added gravely, ‘‘for unless I kill you—l lose the silver hand for ever and, if I kill you, I lose a friend!” “lou will also stand a very good chance ot being strung up by the neck for the crows to peck at! Did he tell you where to take the head of the white man?” I must go to a certain house whole ' they eat opium—and he will take m e with him to the orang-China.” Moorhouse grunted. "It is not such a difficult thing, after all,” he told her. "One' day soon, when I shall tell you, I will give you a parcel to taka to this Chinaman. You will say to the man at the opium house that the head of the white man is there, THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER but you can only show it to the orang-China who has the silver band. He will take you with him and, at a little distance, I shall follow carefully. Come to me ev ery evening until that day.—Good night!” She left the rail and come to ward him hesitantly, her arms out stretched in front of her. "I have no home,” she said soft ly. "Will not the Tuan-Hakim let me stay?”. There was a choking sensation in his throat as Moorhouse avoid ed her gaze. He shook his head. “It would be neither good for you nor for me, little silver hand,’ he stammered. He turned abrupt ly toward the door of the inner room to indicate that the palaver was at an end. Presently something clattered to the floor— and the girl was gone. He swung slowly round on his heel and saw the thing that she had dropped. It was a knife with a long steel blade and a yellow handle ornamented with black dots. He stqoped and recovered it; as he did so he recognized the grim sign of the Yellow Seven.
