Rex had not forgotten.

He had taken his bearings as well as the circumstances permitted, for tne tops of the clifis being outlined against the heavens, certain trees were marked in silhouette which on the occasion of his former visit he had pecially noted.

creep along under the bushes. He had,

come to a halt and appeared to. be intently examing the ground. That this meant something they readily

guessed, and the whisper he started back along the line confirmed the sus- picion.

Closing up around him they found that he gazed upon a pile of rocks, some large, others small, the whole appearing like a cairn some five feet in height.

Just such a monument might the old worthies of Abraham’s time have

made in order to commemorate cer- tain events; and Lord Bruno had more than once in his strange Wan-

derines seen a similar heap of stones

tuark a grave.

The others waited for no other in-

Nor was Hastings’ prediction at all wrong, they discovered when the last of the stones had been removed, for there was revealed a cavity that yawned before them, above which the builders had raised the cairn after the fashion of an arch.

The entrance to the ruins was dis- played.

Bludsoe whispered a caution. He Was in the humor to believe’ these

black idol worshippers would be equal

to any deviltry in order to trap them.

Rex, however, was filled with eagerness to advance, remembering how near he had been to this rich

haul on the former occasion.

So they all entered the tunnel, which was hardly more than a fissure in the rock. Lord Bruno had come prepar- ed, and without delay flashed a little

bull’s-eye lantern upon the scene. It Was well chosen since, when carried by the leader, the little pary tld remain in darkness’ while great light shone ahead.

More than that, it might vet rve them in the way of necromancy. { the superstitious blacks could e believe it to be the one glaring eye of a spirit monster, seeking fresh vic- tims.

They advanced cautiously. Rex

could not forget how he and the pro- fessor had illuminated their way With a torch which, waved above the fread had created a tremendous emi- gration on the part of innumerable bats so that at times the bold ex- plorers were conspelled to call a halt in order to prevent their light being extinguished by the current of created by the myriad of unseen mys- tical wings.

The passage wound this way and that, now fairly comfortable and anon so narrow that some of them had to through.

Once they entered a_ round ment, and as Rex flashed the about, the others held their With awe.

And no for it chamber peopled with spirits of parted giants. To the left and the right could be seen the ugliest old

Vishnu was not in the same class with them, and Buddha might well hang his head in shame. Had there been a prize offered for the most

Lord Bruno made. an involuntary

portunity presented itself, for really the man Who could transfer that col- lection of ancient beauties to his col-

lection need never lack for a subject in the future. “Come, none of that!’’ said Rex,

grimly, knowing how overwhelming the artistic spirit controlled one who used the pencil to perpetuate the odd and the beautiful, that millions might enjoy them.

‘‘But I really must focus the light on that grisly old heathen with two heads. Do give me ‘just five minutes, I beg,’’ said Waterford, as might a man pleading for his life.

‘Not a single minute in here. It would be wasted, I tell you. Why these chaps don’t even hold a candle

to the freaks in the next grotto. Come on—haste to the wedding. Once in there we will fire the pan, and you can scftach away to your heart’s content while I crawl into

the stomach of the grand-daddy of all the idols and remove the booty.” Thus he artfully lured them on. Even the little Frenchman was shiv- ering, not with fear, but excitement. Though he had seen these monstrosi- ties before he was not averse to gaz- ing upon them again, for strange to say they seemed to exercise a pe- culiar charm, as hideous objects gen-

erally do.

Another passage was traversed. It «as no longer a tunnel. The work

of man could be seen in the blocks of stone that shaped the walls and even the raof. When one remember- ed bow this temple had for many hundreds of years been @ ruin, it was almost like unearthing the relics of Babylon and Nineveh.

Upon these blocks of stone strange pictures had been cut, which no doubt formed stories recording the achievements of this remarkable peo-

in bygone days when old Krokato ted cool after the last par

Sud- denly the passage ceased, and anoth- er opening yawned before them. Rex kept the light almost at their fect as they advanced, so the others could next to nothing, although they were impressed with a consciousness that fearful shapes hung out near them.

“‘Have you the pan ready with the flash-light powder?’’ asked Hastings.

The sturdy Briton assured him all was 1n readiness for a plunge.

‘Then touch it off, and remember— silence!’’

Instantly there was a ‘‘click,’* and

the dreadful darkness was shot into cet by myriad flashes of dazzling s1e Ne. Eager eyes were turned around so as to take in the entire circuit, and in truth, such an amazing spectacle has seldom if ever before greeted hu- man eyes,

No one uttered a sound—indeed, they were almost paralyzed with the sensation of awe that swept over them, and could only stand and gape and turn their eyes from one colossal figure to another, as though the power of speech had been temporar- ily : placed under a ban by a magician’s wand.

As suddenly almost as it had flash- ed into being, the light died down leaving them in blackness again; but Lord Bruno had prepared for that, and a succession of charges Was touched off, which promised to turn night into day so long as they last- ed. : :

As they looked again it seemed to their excited imagination that the idols moved their heads, and a sensa- tion of horror

of gain; but a_ closer examination disclosed the fact that a multitude of hideous bats, no doubt recognizing some affinity of the awful shapes that formed the circle, had attached them- selves to ears and noses and chins in countless numbers and hung there, heads down, like brown stalactites.

The sudden flash of the sunlight, in the chamber where gloom had _ held sway, lo, these many hundreds ot years, had startled the creatures of darkness, and_ there con~ stant migration, as in they sought various exits in way ot crevices.

The artist stood transfixed before the chief of all the idols, a monster With three heads and four arms, a fetish that if but glanced at a single time was hideous enough to give one the nightmare for a month.

And Lord Bruno stood there as if entranced, his face beaming, his nos- trils dilating with eagerness, his hand

Jove! he was. already at it, and the way his pencil dashed over the paper spoke of aroused genius. In- deed, under ordinary conditions it would be something of a job to drag the excited artist out of the ancient temple until he had drawr the more

Rex left him to his idols, Rex who had something on the carpet that was of much more importance to him than all the ugly images the

A Frequent Cause of Consumption, Heart Failure and Other Constitutional Dis- eases—Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food a3 a Bicod Bulider.

The heart, the lungs, the stomach, «he liver, the kidneys, and bowels can- not perform their functions and repair wasted tissue when supplied with blood that ™ deficient in nutritive qualities, and sooner or later the weakest organ succumbs to the attacks of disease.

The indications of thin, watery blood are paleness of the lips, gums, and eye- lids, shortness of breath, weakness of heart action, and languid, despondent feelings. These symptoms are usually accompanied by nervousness, sleepless- ness, and general weakness of the body.

It is positively useless to doctor the symptoms, and injurious to use opiates or stimulants. Cure can be brought about gradually and certainly by the use of Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food, which contains in cendensed pill form all the elements required for strengthening and revitalizing the blood.
