"1 like not the design," he said short, ly, "nor do I know the value of thy gold. Begone!" Tisha faced him angrily and stamped her foot In rage. "Were every bead of common clay and fashioned by a beggar's band thou, if tbou didst truly love me, would give tby fortune for it. Thou const bargain when my kisses are at stake? Bab!"

For the first time Jether, the gilded fool, bad sbown signs of protesting against the sys- tematic plucking indulged in by these barples of Jerusalem.

Tisba's eyes gleamed and dashed tire, but she east a longing look in the di- reetion of the distant Jether, angrily pacing to and fro in the garden.

And Tisba strolled in the direction of Jether, while Nadine followed Sadyk into the house. In a distant alcove, beneath a great fig tree, Jether was lying upon several soft Cushions, gazing at tbe sky. Sud- denly a fig, deftly thrown, fell by his side. Dalt raising upon his arm, an- other fig just grazed his forehead. 13e sprang to his feet to meet Oahe, laugh- ing "Ilyand .Jether,smiling, art thou angry?" she 1 cried and fell into his arms, while his lips sought hers, Thus he held ber for a few blissful moments, and then she did release herself.
