Juggernaut, or Jagaanath In Hindu#- tanl (meaning Lord of the World), was an Idol ao hideously done In wood that the prince of hell would have ta ken it to be the person!Beat lon of a damned soul could he have glimpsed It In tha temple of Allaha.

The wheels, six In number, two In front and two on each aide, were solid, broad, and heavy, capable of amoothtng out a corrugated winter road The superstructure was an or nate shrine, which contained the Idol on Us peregrinations to the liver. About tha oar were the devotees, some holding toe ropes, others watch ing the entrance to the temple Pres ently from the temple came the gurus, or priests, bearing the Idol With much reverence they placed the Idol within the shrine, the pilgrims took hold firmly of the ropes, and the car rattled and thundered on Its way to tha river. Of Juggernaut and his car more anon. The street outside the garden of brides wae In reality no thoroughfare, though natives occasionally made use of It as a sliort cut Into town. There fore no one observed the entrance nf an elephant, which stopped close to the vail, seemingly to melt tnto the Id rah of It On hts bark, however, the howdah was conspicuous llehlnd the curtains lCalhlyn patiently waited She was about to turn away In despair when through the wicker gate she *nw ■Winnie, attended by one of the xenana girls, enter the garden. It seemed as If her will readied out to bring Winnie to the wall and to hold the other young woman where she was. But the two sat In the center of the garden, the thoughts of each far sway Tha attendant felt no worry In bring ing Winnie Into the garden. A cry from her Ups would bring a doxnn guards and sunuchs from tha palace. And tha white girl oould not get out •lone More than thin, she gave Win nie liberty In order to trap her If pos sible. By and by the native girl pretended to feel drowsy In the heat of the sun, and her head full forward a trifle. It was then that Winnie heard a low whbrtla, an old familiar whistle such as she and Kit had used once upon a time la playing "a spy ” She eat up rigidly. It was hard work not to cry out Over the wall the drab trunk of an elephant protruded, and something white fluttered Into the garden. Winnie roee The head of the native girt came up Inetlnotlrely; but as Wln nta leisurely strolled toward the pal aea, the head sank again. Winnie turned and wandered elong the walls, apparently examining the flowers and vlnea, but all tha whllumovtng nearer sold nearer to the bit Ik white paper which the Idle breese stirred bark and forth tentatively. When she reached the apt* she stooped and plucked some flowers, gathering up the paper as she did so. And, still In the stooping poe ture, she read the note, crumpled It. and stuffed It Into a hole In the wall Poor child! Every move had been watched as a oobra watches Its prey Hhe was to pretend Illness at once. Plans had been changed She stood Up. swayed slightly, and staggered back to the seat In truth, she was pale enough, and her heart boat so fast that she was horribly dltiy. “A doctor 1 * she cried, forgetting that the would not be understood The native girl stared at her She did not understand the words, but the signs were enough The young while woman looked 111. and I'mballa would deal harshly with those who tailed Xg The Adventures of Kathlyn By HAROLD MAC GRATH llluttrm'ed by Picture* from the Moving Picture Production of the Sellg Polytcopo Co. stem the tide of sny Illness which might befall his captive. There was a commotion behind the fretwork of the palace. Three other girls came out, and Wfnnle was conducted back to the zenana. All this Kathlyn observed. She bade the mahout go to the bouse of the zenana’s doctor, where she donned the habiliments familiar to the guards and Inmates of the zenana. Everything wont forward without a hitch; so smoothly that had the object of her vhdt been other than Winnie Kalhlyn must have sensed something unusual. She entered the palace and even led the way to Winnie’s chamber —a fact which appeared natural enough to the women about but which truly alarmed Tmballa’s spy, who Im mediately set off In search of the man One thing assured her; the hands of the sotmna's rsu! physician were broad and muscular, while the hands she saw were slender and beautiful, brown though they were. Hhe had seen those hands before, during the episode of the leopards of the treasury. It was very hard for Kathlyn to curb the wild desire to crush Winnie In her arms, arms that truly ached for the feel of her. Even as she fought this desire she could not but admire Win nie's superb acting. To have come all this way alone In search of them, un familiar with the customs and ths lan guage of the people! How she hod succeeded In getting here without mis hup was In Itself remarkable. She took Winnie’s wrlßt In her hand and pressed It reassuringly, then pub tered about In her medical bag Very softly she whispered: "I shall remain with you till dusk. Give no sign whatever that you know me, for you will he watched. Tonight I will smuggle you out of the palace. Take these, and soon pretend to be quieted.” Winnie swallowed the bits of sugar and lay back. Kathlyn signified that she wished to be alone with her pa tient Once alone with Winnie, she cast aside her veil. "O, Kit!" "Hush, baby! We are going to get you safely away." "1 am afraid." ”8o are we all; but we must not let snyone see that we are Ffcther and Ahmed are near by. Hut oh. why did you attempt to And us?” "Hut you cabled me to come, weeks ago!” "I? Never!" And the mystery was no longer a mystery to Kathlyn. The hand of TTmbulla lay bare, ('ould they eventually win out against a man who seemed to miss no point In the game? "You were deceived. Winnie. To think of It I We had escaped, were ready to sail for home, when we learned that you had left for India. It nearly broke our hearts." "Whatever shall we do, KltT" Win nie flung her arms round her slater and drew her down. "My Kit!” "Wo must b* brave, whatever hap pens “ "And am I not your sister?" quietly. “Do you believe in me so little? Why shouldn’t I be brave? Hut you've al ways treated me like a baby; you never tried to prove me.” Kathlyn's arms wound themselves tightly about the slender form. . . . And thus Umballa found them "Very touching!" ho sold, standing with hla back to tho door. "Hut nice ly trapped!" He laughed an Kathlyn sprang to her foot, a» her hand Bought tho dnggor at her *lde. "Don't draw It,” he said “I might hurt your arm In wrenching It away from you. Poor little fool! Hack Into the cage, like a homing pigeon! Had I not known you all would return, think you I would hare glren up tho chaao eo easily? You would not hend. bo then you must break Tho god Juggernaut yearns for a sacrifice to prove that we Btlll lore and worship him. You spumed my lore; now you shall know my hats. You shall die, unpleasantly." Quickly as a cat springs he caught her hands and wrenched them toward him. dragging her toward tho door. Winnie sprang up from the cushions, her eyes ablaze with tho fighting spirit Too soon the door closed In her face and she heard the bolt outside go slithering home. Said Ytnballa from the corridor; "To you. pretty kitten. I shall come later. I need you for my wife. When I return you will be all alone In the world, truly an orphan. And do not make your eyes red needlessly." Winnie screamed and Kathlyn fought with the fury of a netted tigress. For a few minutes I'mballa had hla hands full, but In the end he conquered. Outside the garden of bffdes three men watted In vain for the coming of Kathlyn and her sister The god Juggernaut did not repoee In hla accustomed niche In the temple that night. The car had to be pulled up and down a steep hill, and on the return, owing to the darkness. It waa left at the top of the hill, safely propped to prevent tta rolling down of Its own accord When the moon rose Juggernaut's eyes gleamed like the striped eats. Ig>ng sin eg he had seen (Oaprrigbt b j U«nJZ kscUrMii) a human sacrifice. Perhaps the old days would return once more. He was weary at heart riding over sickly flowers; he wanted flesh and bones and the music of the death rattle. His cousins, War and Pestilence, still took (heir tithes. Why should he be de nied? The whispering became a murmur ng, and the murmuring grew Into ca llable chattering; and by ten o’clock hat night all the bazaars knew that the ancient rites of Juggernaut were 'o be revived that night. The bazaars hud never heard of Nero, called Aheno -larbus, and, being without oomparl -ons, they missed the greatness of iiclr august but hamperod regent Urn ball a. Always the bazaars heard news be fore any other part of the city. The white memsahib was not dead, but had been recaptured while posing as lire zenana physician in an attempt to rescue her sister, the new queen. Oh, -he chief city of Allaha was In the matter of choice and unexpected amusements unrivaled In all Asia. Yes, Umballa was not unlike Nero to keep the populace amused so they would temporarily forget their bur dens. But why the sudden appearance of soldiers, who stood guard at every exit, compelling the inmate# of the bazaars not to leave their houses? Al, J! Why this secrecy, since they knew hat was going to take place? But iho soldiers, ordinarily voluble, maln lalned grim silence, and even went so far as to extend the bayonet to all thoee who tried to leave the narrow streets. "An affair of state!” was all the na tives could get In answer to their In quiries. Men came flocking to the roofs. But the moonshine made all hlngs ghostly. The car of the god uggernaut was visible, but what lay p ‘ts path could not bo seen. Umballa wns not popular that night. Hut this was a private affair. Well he knew the Ingenuity and resources of his enemies at large. There would be no rescue this night. Kathlyn Mera sahlh should die; this time he deter mined to put fear Into the hearts of the others. Having drunk his king's peg. he was well fortified against any personal qualms. The passion he had hod for Kathlyn was dead, dead as hs wanted her to be. Whom the gods destroy they first make mad; and Umballa was mad. The palanquin waited In vain out side the wall of the garden of brides — waited till a ripple of the news eddied about the conveyance In the shape of a greatly agitated Dal Singh. "He Is really going to kill her!" he panted "He lured her to her sister’s side, then captured her. Hhe Is to be placed beneath the car of Juggernaut JM 1.l ■ ”" ?» t ■nil? TM Car of Juggasttaol within an hour. It Is to be dona se cretly. The people are guarded and held In the bazaars. Ahmed, wdth aa elephant and armed keepers, will be here shortly. I have warned him. U» balls runs amuck!" Suddenly they heard wotoas tn the garden, first TJmbella'a. than Kathlyn a. Sinister portents to the ears of the listeners, father lorur and loyal friends The former were for break ing Into the garden then and there; but a glance through the wicket gato disclosed the fact that t'mballa and Kathlyn were surrounded by dftaan or twenty soldiers And they dared not fire at Vmballa far fear of Kathlyn.

Rain in Texas, Dry in Oklahoma. Washington, D. C.—Growing cotton made rapid progresa under generally favorable weather conditions during the pp»t week the weather bureau reported today in l*s weekly review. R.iina in most sections of Texas brought relief from the long drought that had threat ened severe damage. In Oklahoma, how ever, dry, hot weather continues. In the enstern and central states of the cotton belt the weather whs nearly everywhere favorable an* rotton has made rapid growth, says the review. Picking is now under way in the south ern portions but delayed somewhat in Georgia by frequent rains. In Texas the severe drought was very generally relived during the week, es pecially In the eastern and cntral por tions and the cotton outlook is much Improved. In Oklahoma hot and dry weather the first part of week still further Injured cotton, but moderate rains the 'atter part will no doubt improve conditions although the late planted Is small and shedding is reported.

Qualifications of Congressmen; What They Should Be and Why The Present Great Crisis Luminously Illustrates the Question From every great Tinancial center to the humblest cottage in the entire South, the conviction is borne that the present Is he greatest crisis that has come to our people since the Civil War. With the fields bloom with a crop that seemed certain to bring prosperity in abounding meas ure to all, the value of the entire crop is in imminent danger of being tremendously Impaired by reason of the awful war in Europe. Yhere is one clear chance, however, for the preservation of our prosperity, and that is by the immediate and effect ive utilization of the resources of the government for aid in either finding a market Tor such crop or in enab ling the same to be held until a mar ket shall have developed. In ordei to make the government forces effec tive therd was need for representa tives irom the South of capacity, character, and knowledge of every phase of the South, and the utmost fidelity to the people. It must be a source of tremendous pride to us all to realize that our leaders have measured up fully to the needs of the situation, and that by their patriotic and persistent endeavors our country will be protected from the threatened disaster. Suppose for a moment that our representatives in congress had been selected not by reason of their fit nesh to do work of this kind in such a crisis, but had been selected solely by reason of prejudice against a com petent opponent. Suppose they had been selected not by reason of their knowledge of their country and its needs, not by reason of their capacity to learn the methods by which suob needs might be protected, not by the character and courage necessary to make the methods effective, but sole- (—Weak Heart JjfjST Many people suffer from weak hearts.
