UDAPTER IV.

GATHERING THE DEW. Day was high when Blerton suddenly awoke with a cold shiver to find that night had eradi. oated all the warmth from the air and given to it a dexy freshness which, though not altogeth. or conducive to sleep, was most invigorating and drove away the mosquitoes.

Fer a moment he felt szed, wondered whore he was, for the sak he had imbibed on the previ ous night had given him a headache. rising and shaking himself, he put on his coat and Thou, went to the window. The moon was still shining, though with a more subdued light, and the Eastern sky was radiout with the goklon glow of carly dawn. The sheen of molten metal WAN pon

Impressed with the golemu grandeur of the scons mul the deathlike silence which prevailed on all sides, he was standing there rapt in vague contemplation when the stillness was broken by a faint rustling in the garden. He looked in the direction indicated by the sound and at once desoried a dark figure moving across the white background of flowers.

Wondering who said be abroad at that early hour, he stepped out upon the balcony in order to obtain a better view; and, as he dil so, the figure turned towards him. It was the mysterious "goishis girl" in whom he was interested,

Acting on the impulse of the moment, he re-entered the room and, hastily making himself as presentable as possible, quietly made his way downstairs. No one appeared to be stirring in the house, and all was peacefal. The front door stood opon, and on gaining the verandah ha found his shoes exnetly where he had left them on the previous orening. They had been cleaned and polished with scrupulous caro. While put ting them on, he glanced around and saw the ugly man cleaning some fish at a tub of water which stood close to the house.

Kowtowing most reverentially, ho regarded the Englishman with a lock of grave inquiry, but did not speak; and as Merton passed down the steps into The garden and strolled across the lawn, the man paused from his recupation and watched him with evident suspiciou.

The young girl was still standing in the same place, and was bending over a cluster of white filios from which she appeared to be gathering the dew into a small glass phial. As Merton approach- ed, however, the raised her head and looked a little embarrassed. Its felt equally so, and half regretted his tonerity in having ventured into her prosencs. Notwithstanding, he put a bold face en the matter, and, smiling blaudly bowed to her. Not knowing her language, yet feeling that he mast say something, he spoke in hisa wwa, apologizing for hia intrusion.

She acknowledged his greating with, reassur- jog affability and courteousness.
