When they reached Listah'n chotofl
retreat, after threading the. maze of the
many devi-mx jiassayeK, the pric.nt coun
seled Eric to take Home food and li
ujjoii hi tied while he reoonnoi tared. So
Listah left him, and he laid himself
down on the rude couch. He could not '
sleep, of course, for his mind wus too I
agitated.
It whm now midday, as Listah had told
him, and a little farthur down the pas- ,
sage in which the old recluse had made
hl.M home there fchone one slim white ray
of light from above, feebly Qruminatl'ig '
one little spt. He went to it and saw 1
a email ojmning in the wall a few feet
atmve hisheail. He stood looking directly j
upward along the ray of light and saw
that it came through a trapdoor in the !
roof of an apartment alxve.
Placing several large stories together,
he was enabled to peer through the open
ing". and discovered that he overlooked
the grvut estufa. t la- sacred council
chamber ami eicTot room of t he Kabilo.
It was deserted and dark, but his eye,
accustomed now to intense gloom, could
discern every feature of the great room
into which he had never before pene
trated It was arranged like an amphitheater,
with a capacity of perhaps two hundred
Ieople. In the center stood the hideous
image of CllaltiU, the god to whom the
fearful human sacrifices were devoted.
Barbaric and rude, nuKshapen and Ugly
as it was, the image awoke from its ter
rible import a thrill of momentary awe
even in hia bosom. How many lives had
been given to this ancient idol; how
many fair throats had ponied forth their
virgin blood upon its altars in the long
ages of his dread reign?
The imap had been, he could see,
newly painted, and the gold and silver
upon it polished until i glowed in the
darkness with a semblance of life. Two
immense emeralds were its eyes. They
were turned toward him and seemed
full Of dark" fire, as though the god saw
him spying there. The effect of dignity
waa lessened by the row of ancient but
very precipuasea shells" that formed the
teeth Of Ihfs terror of Atzlan. They made
its smile more- terrible to its votaries
perhabs, but to Eric they reduced the
god's dignity to grotesqueness. This
element of the grotesque grew upon
him as he gazed at it standing there,
aoleniuly, like a Mardi Gras lic, a
mOhu'nieut to the folly and the debase
ment of man.
Ashe looked the 'light grew dim and
faded suddenly . A figure' came down
the' ladder; then another, and he saw
Chalpa and his' assistant, Tepelpec, a
weazened, pockmarked villain, standing
before him by the side of the idol.
Chalpa oxamiued it carefully and re
marked :
"He is dry now. We can take him
out and set him On his pedestal at once.
How handsome he looks in his new
dress!"
"He is delighted at the prospect," re
joined Tepelpec. "I'll wager no Katun
feast waa ever graced by snch a beautv
as Lela. The god looks hungry, too.
methinks."
"Ha!" ejaculated Clialna. "WinA
years of fasting would make even Chalcu
hungry. It comfes all too rarely, this
feast. It should Occur every twenty

"Everything, although the victim is
far from feeling disposed tO; go willing
ly. She will not drink the sacred aitsi.
and I fear that she will make us trouble
to the last."
"Ferhapsi" replied Chalpa with a grin
full of triumph and hate. "But go she
shall! quietly if she will, or in our tender
hands if she is unruly. And the people
are they quiet, think your"
"Too quiets I fear there is a strong
undercurrent of feeling against this
aacnfice which only need stirring to
become an open protest. They seem to
think that you have taken some unfair
advantage of the girl." As Tepelpec
said this he cast a quick, sly glance at
hv superior.
Chalpa started and glared at his as
sistant: What do you mean? Do you dare to
aay" He hesitated.
"Nothing, father, nothing, only I
have heard a word or two now and then
that seemed ominous."
"By Chalcu, T would like to hear such
a word! The lips that uttered it would
utter no more lies. And remember, keep j
watch over your own tongue lest it si in
and lead you to destruction."
"I speak to' ho one," answered Tepel
pec, "but U yod. From you, I think, I
need conceal riothihg. 'We, I hope, un
deratand pne another. I know that you

"Pray talk not of dutv. dear fat.) in

"Miserable son of- n polecat, thy driv

Tepelpec 's eyes and tongue were pro-

and he staggered for a fovv moments.

only your orders, Kulcan, Iklai- ami
Jan-ila are confined, as yon commanded,
in eeparato nohi in the temple. The
old man is obdurate; he swears we bavje
killed Quetzal, but Kulcan may vet
yield to save his precious life."
The cruel, hungry smile crofsed Clial
pa's face.
"ik- will not save it even then, the
coward! I am sorry J did not place him
beside tlit- false Quetzal; they would lie
beneath the water together and pease, hi
vex u!"
'The maiden is at the house of bet
grandmother, old Int.u, whom J have
commanded to prepare her for her fate.
She is haughty and will not speak tome.
I vLhiied her but now, but I saw her not.
Still she i.- well guarded by men armed
with Quetzal's axes. We can thank him
for that blessing."
I will talk with her," said Chalpa,
hia eyus lighting with a steely glitter iu
the gloom. "She will listen to me!
Hark! What was that?"
It was a slight noise that made both
start, caused by Listah, who, returning
aloii the passage. Stumbled over a
tone. He stopped at once, seeing Eric's
upraised finger, and stood motionless.
Chalpa and Tepelpec, like two alarmed
rats, peered iu every direction in silence
for awhie, Then Tepelpec said,:
"It was nothing a loose stone per
haps, lbey noiselessly ascended the
ladder and disappeared.
All the while Eric's hand had been on
his weapon, but he was loath to k01
tin in in cold blood, although he had
fully determined to slaughter Ch: 'pa as
he would a rattlesuuke or a rabid dog
simply to rid the earth of a vicious and
dange-ruus animal. It had become sim
ply a question of self defense, and al
though he bad been long in arriving at
such a decision hu was resolved to carry
it out. In this he was justified, iuav
much as Chalpa had twice attempted
his life, and would certainly kill him ii
he had another opportunity. He could
not invoke the law iu Atzlan with any
sense of security, and he would be hia
own law and rid the city cf a base
scouudrel.
When the two had gone he stenued
down and related their conversation to
Lbitah. When he had concluded the
latter said; .
"Tepelpec is right there ia much ob
jection to the sacrifice; People are say
ing it is time to abolish it. They sav
mat Quetzal was averse to it, and they
belie ve he will return in time to prevent
it. nut mere is a strong party in favoi
of it too. . They seem abput divided.
Some fear Chalpa and side with him."
"Did you see Iklapeli"
replied ListaJi. "He is guarded
oy my nephew Aza, and he permitted
me to spean to the high priest.- He was
nueu with, sorrow, for he thought you
lie oju not believe that von had

lef t us, as Chalpa has said, but he feared
tl.wt you were murdered. When I told
him you were here he almost wept for
joy. Ho brightened up and appeared
years younger. He has told me how to
get to the vault under the temple by the
secret door which you know, he Bays,
and we are to go there and be ready to
rescua Lana tomorrow noon. He thinlfe
it wis to wait until then."
"Did you see Lela?" asked Eric, bis
patience givirg way entirely
"No; she is with her grandmother.
But Ban, my wife, is one of the weavers
and is allowed to see her; you can send

Jan-ila "1 would urt kiJow what 10 do

"Nor 1," Listah replied, "but Quetzal

There was a strong fascination in the
hoard to lyric. He felt a eort of miserly
greed creep over him. as his eyes roved
over the mass; the old vases full of gold
dust, strangely shaped utensils and fur
niture, meaningless trappings of all
sorts, shapes and sizes aroused his anti
quarian inteteet and his cupidity at the
same time, for there were fortunes in
single objects lying there upon the tiled
pavement: relics of the prehistoric past
that nations would vie with one another
to Becure not for their hitrinsic value
alone, but for their ethnological interest.
A great golden calendar, a circular
disk, with strange obsolete characters
all over its surface, lay against the wall.
What a prize for a museum! And he
noticed several figures of animals, well
modeled in gold, and among them stood
a regal eiepnant with greatly curved
tusks. He looked sharply at it, and a3
he stared he realized that it was a mode
in miniature of the extinct mammoth!
"ihere are pictures of them in the
sacred books, said Jan-ila when Eric
had pointed out this wonder, "for I have
seen them often. The matures shnw

They lost no more time, but started at
once for the chamber under the temple.
for Eric remembered well the wav now
ana rney reaciiea it in a few minutes.
Noiselessly they entered it,. and the two
priests reverently, for both had been
there before on solemn occasions. This
room held the ark of the Atzlan faith.
Qnetzalcoatl's vessel, and it was a sacred
apartment, into which none but priests
ever veutureu. listah extinguished the
candle as soon as they were fairly in the
cei uu use cnaui per. A few narrow shafts
of light shot through the crevices, but
they could see that the light was dim
and that darkness was rapidly approach
ing. They heard footsteps upon the
light flooring above, but they ceased a
moment later. '
They waited a full hour in deep si
lence and almost complete darkness;,
then Eric reached out and touching
Jau-ila uiion the shoulder d rew him
close and whispered:
"You go up the ladder and lift the
trapdoor silently and carefully. If no
one is in sight, slip but into the room
and then outdoors to find Iklapel. If
he is there, call him softly and tell him
we are here, ready to act. Be very
careful, uiy.boy.and don't get nervous."
Without answering Jan-ila quickly
mounted the ladder, and after a mo
ment's pause cautiously and almost im
perceptibly opened the trapdoor. They
saw- him disappear through it, and it
was closed softly.
An hour elapsed, and then Eric went
up, and lifting the trapdoor peered out.
A dark form, and one which he did not-
recognize, sat in the doorway motion
less. Its back was toward him. Ha
raised the door higher; he could see no
body in the room. While be stood there
wonaenng, looking upward, he saw the
opening in the floor above fill up with a
dark object, and he quickly closed the
trapdoor and held his head close under it
to listen. Hot a sound reached him, but
after a long interval he felt the door
move. He drew awny from it and de
scended the ladder. A pair of legs ap
peared, and then the form of Jan-ila,
whe closed the door after him. He had
caused no more noise than a serpent in
all this time. Grasping Eric's hand he
whispered:
"Iklapel was upon the roof, and I went

outside pathway, but I wished to return

He went down the broad, graded de
scent and reached the ground unob
served. There was nobody near the tem
ple: the pnept were busy preparing for
the festival on the morrow or about to
seek rest. Farther on the people sat in
groups about their doors or npou tie
lower range of roofs. Those among
whom he passed glaii'-ed at' him. but
Jan-ibi'a blanket was close up abont hia
ears, and they did not recognize him. He
reached Lela's door and saw that a light
burned within: he halted, at a loss how
to summon Bari forth, but at that mo
ment Eltza. now a large girl, came from
tne spring with a jar of water upon her
head, and was ationt to enter the house
when he stopped her. ; .'
"Maiden, is Bari, the wife of Listah,
within?"
"Yes," she answered, looking sharp! v
at. him, hut nob knowing lum, for his
face was strange to her and dark.
"Tell her, child, that one is here with
a message from Listah, who would see
her at once."
She went in, and in a moment old Bari
came; out. There was a pale crescent
moon low in the sky, and its light fell
upon her face as she Indeed at him with

"But, think you. would Quetzal like
to see you preparing his bride for death?"
"He has gone and left her hre she

wrong in thinking it."
"Yes; he wilt protect her, and you
shall help him," he said, standing np be.
fore her and revealing his face. "Do

privately that she must ask Chalpa to

Bia." It is not a sin to be rich if our riches
are righteoutly obtained And yet a
thousand dangers beset the man who
sets out with the determination to be
rich. It ia easier for a camel to go
through the eye of a needle than for a
rich man to enter the kingdom of heav
en. He is almost sure to reach the crisis
in hia experience when he will say.
"Soul, take thine ease: I have much
g"d laid up for thee in store." and enter
upon a downward course from that mo- '
nient. The determination to get rich at
all hazards may lib termed a modern dfe- '

is a disease which sweeps before it the

evil eye of haste for ricbea that is one of '
the most withering curses of our age. j
First? It denies and abrogates the par
amount law of industry, in the sweat
if man's brow shall he eat bread, de
creed the eternal Qod, echoed the eternal
nature. And yet men in modern rimes '
have said that they will do nothing of '
the sort. They will eat bread without
labor. They will eat bread by trick, by
chicanery, 4s overreaching, by swin
dling, by obeating, by humbug. This j
abrogation of the paramount law of in
dustry brings us face to face with the
submerged millions in the industrial j
world, with the countless thousands and
hundreds of thousands who cry for i
bread, who are caught in the vicious un- j
dertow of thia angry sea of human avar j
rice and are dragged to the bottom of the
aeepest sea of. human misery. In the
mildest developments of this mania it is
simply gambling, and ita necessary oor-,
ollaries are hard times, panics and the
periodical disturbances of the industrial
world which result in thousands .of
wrecks.

i tif fh It is this mania that reduces life
I to the standard of a miserable commercial
dividend. Meu afflicted with this disease
. refuse to enter njion any work that does
) not pav in a commercial sense. The fir,t
i question they ask is. Will it pay? I ask
i a man to give money to save the heathen
J He says: Will it pay? Dons it pay? J
j ask him how. "Well." he says, "how
; much money did yon upend on the heath
j en last year?" I tell him $iO ,000.000. "How
many did you save?' I tell him so many
; thousands. He says: "It don't pay.
l hey Cost too much. They come too
high. They are not worth it. Too much
money a bead." This is the man who
refuses to subscribe money to buy the
new hearse, because he said he never
had any. nee for the old pne, and he gave
$10 for that. The idea of a' commercial
dividend applied 'to life invariably re
duces it to an absurdity.
No work of rorepays: Eliminate love
from life, and there is nothing left but
death. A workingman left his anvil and
watched by the bedside of. bis dying
wife She was. . a little, withered, tired
woman, her face pinched and wan and
overwrought with long years of toil He
was a great, broad 'shouldered', strong
limbed, muscular giant. He gave days
and weeks and months to the tenderest
ministry of love by her bedside. He lost
hie position, his plaoe in the ranks of a .
difficult trade in which to maintain him;
self. He ran the risk of beini; a tramn
but he never left her bedside till the end
With streaming eyes he followed the
preacher to the door and asked if there
were any hope: He lost his wages for
months. He was brought tr At
starvation nutil he had to accept the
charity of strangers. It did not pay. No
work of love pays, , But shall loyp cease
to minister to its loved one?
Children do not pay. It does not pav

Mr Lpais Gross of Ptiiladelphia should
be investigated. He is too sin art by half,
or he is a fearful liar, Which Is worse.
Mr. Grose claims that he has invented a
hami-melown egg., and right here this
machine made business should stop.
Man is a creature of environment, and if
somet h ing is not done a fearful catastro
phe may befall humanity: Today man
stands surrounded by wooden nutmegs,
sawdust flour and steer, butter. He
wears false teeth, flaw eyes, wigs, wood
en legs, cork hands and! padded coats,
while his wife wears criholfnb that 1s full
of guile at 80 cent a yard. The fabric
of society is frail and full of deceit, and
man is rapidly adjusting himself to his
surroundings, l he advent of the tailor
made egg fills the last niche hi the circle
of deception that surrounds bewildered
humanity. If this is not checked, very
soon there will be "no joy nor heauty
nor loveliness" that "eoutmueth iq man."
All will be "vanity and vexation of spir
it."" ""
This is of course the selfish human
side. Bnt what, about the hens and their
kin? Have they no ria-hts that human
beings are bound to respect? If this eiwr-
malter is allowed to flood the market
with his "false, fleeting, perjured" eggs,
what can a self respecting hen do but
withdraw her product indignant I v from
sale? Can bens be expected to go into
the marts of trade to compete with pau
per egg plants and support indigent and
improvident roosters on the mere nit-
tance that the machine article can be
made for? Most certainly they cannot.
And if the hens are to be insulted and
driven from America, where will mriiu
chickens come from?-- Kan sas City Star.
