"I have had good luck so far," he said in conclusion. "Here I am, out only a little over a week, and I am one-fifth of the way around already. If I make it in time, he girl I love has contracted to marry me on my return." "How beautiful," said Princess Istra. "It is so grand, so romantic to make such a journey for your sweet. I hope you will not fail. I scarcely dare ask you to stay and help me now ; it might detain you." "I have a day or two to spare. What do you want me to do?" "Get me out of here — back to Paris — away from the clutches of this unscrupulous plotting politician, Don Carnero." "I'll undertake to do that," Archie vowed gallantly. At that moment the door opened and in walked the redoubtable Don himself, scowling heroically. "I have overheard your promises, Americano. You have pledged one lady that you will return from your globe trotting in sixty days ; you have promised another to give her of your time a day or two. You shall redeem neither of your pledges. Carlos ! Juan ! Filipe !" At the call, three ugly-looking men stepped into the room. "Bind and gag this fine hero so he cannot squeak. Put him in a skin jug, carry him to Mindao dungeon, and see that he is deposited in the deepest, dampest cell. If that cell is now occupied, let it be vacated. This guest is an old college chum of Don Carnero, and he shall have my best accommodations." The triumphant plotter drew a pencil and tablet from his pocket and wrote an order which he gave to Carlos. "Give this to the jailer. When he is through with him you may do with him as you please. It will not matter." (To be concluded in the January number.) ance to Grow THESE books will turn the trick for you.
