Meantime the moon will wax and wane on the luscrutable face of the silent one ranny* times before 1 arrive." a I So spoke Dale Malcolm, but the fates bad willed It otherwise. He had yet to learn that the daughter of the Egyptians had mystic know ltd go of events to come. f . | A week iHtcr he pulled down the top of his deuk and went to the street, where bis little car waited at the curbstone. lie bad promised himself a ruu into the country.. but when he came to Central park lie recollected that there was a new picture In the gallery of the Metropolitan museum that he desired to see. and so present ly he fouud himself standing before the priceless picture which had been lent by a millionaire. From on? painting to another Malcolm wander ed. nnd from'the picture gallery be went from one collection to nnothei until he reached the Egyptian room It was growing Into and near closing time when Dale Malcolm suddenly dls covered tlint he was standing before n largo framed photograph of the sphinx "This Is About as near to the silent j one ns I shall pet this year." h? chuckled to himself Just as he t timet1 ; array. There was r. sllpht scream and a fall i on the fl wr losl.de him. j Dalo turned hastily to And almost i at his feet o plrl who hnd slipped on tbo polished lloor. When he bent to ( assist her to riso he noted that In splto of her pallor she was very lovely nnd thnt the color of her black lushed eyes just matched the brown velvet of her costume. "I am nfrald I cannot stand." she faltered, lonnlnp against him. "I believe I've sprained my ankle. If yon will assist Uie to a seat"? Dale almost carried Ids lovely burden to one of the settees. She leaned her heatftTpuliist the back of the seat, and, taking a small gold vinaigrette from her hand bap. she held It to her dainty nose. When her band laupuVdly dropped Dale quietly took the goldeu toy from her hand and Applied It. Presently she opened her eyes And smiled deprecatlnply At bits. "Thank you very much," she said. "If you will summon a taxicab and assist me to tbe entrance I shall be very grateful. J nra sorry to trouble i you, but"? "My own enr Is at the door," suggested Malcolm. "If you will let me drive you homo It will save delny." "Thank you. You are very kind. 1 I live Just around tbe corner In Eightyfourth street. Ah!" She winced with pain as she endeavored to walk. I After- thnt *'- ' ? - turn ouc twk hi n il'ui iu a pro I fered nrm. and Just an they turned away the young man looked backward Through the window be saw the new moon, and hi* glance ? I so took In the picture of the sphinx nnd the girl be side him. Ells heart leaped suddenly so that be started violently. "What has happened?" asked the girl quickly. "Nothing that matters now," he said j as he assisted her lu her slow progress through the rooms. In spite of lils calm demeanor Dale Malcolm's everyday solf assurauce was staggered by the recollection of the gypsj"- prophecy nnd the colncl dence of i ting this beautiful stranI ger actual.; iu the shadow of the pictured face of the silent one, the sphinx In ten minutes Pale was assisting Vera Lane up the front steps of the handsome house where she lived and ] giving ber Into the care of a very so lldtous bntler.

The next day be called to Inquire concerning bliss Lane's Injury, and. receiving word that aha was much batter. be was obliged to content himself with tbnt. There was nothing more be could do now save to find soma mutual acquaintance who would effect | the Introduction ttaut would, be now believed, open tbe gates of paradise to him.

At last he dropped In at a tea. for which functions be bad a deadly hatred, and the first persou lie saw Was Vera Lane talking to ber hostess. Tbe girl moved away as be approached. ^Irs.
