She would almost have sworn that she looked into the desert of Araby, for she seemed to see a train of camels in trappings, and, perched upon their THE WESTON TIMES & GUIDE _ But everything went by contraries, ‘and from that oasis she was to be _caught up into a fiery chariot, for all the world to behold as it rolled her round and round the globe on an amâ€" azing destiny. "No, ma‘am, that‘s a mirageâ€"a ‘maginary mirage. They‘re nothin‘ there at tallâ€"no ma‘am." "That‘s Palm Springs, I suppose," she said. Mem was desposited at the lonely station of Palm Springs, and fear smothered her as she watched the train vanish into the glare. But a rancher, almost as shy as she, offered her the hospitality of his wagon. He said he was going past the Randles‘s ranch anyhow, and would leave her there. After a time, Mem saw ahead of her a shimmering lake and trees and a waterfall. So goodâ€"bye and blessings on, your darling heads. John sends his love, . Your loving, loving, loving. Mem. To be a chambermaid or a waitress was a dismal comeâ€"down, but Mem deâ€" cided, she must accept it! What right had she to pride? _ : There‘s no mail . delivery where we‘re going and no way of reaching us, but don‘t worry. If anything hapâ€" pens I‘ll let you know.

Don‘t send me any more money. _ _ a § And so she fared into the desert to become a "widow"â€"as she had become a "wife." _ She went there to find obscurity and concealment. I‘ve been too busy to write you all about John as I promised. He is out here scouting for a famous mine and is going prospecting for it right away. It is a famous lost mine that got abandoned on account of some litigaâ€" tion and was nearly forgotten. So he‘s on the hunt for it and we‘re going out to hunt for it together. It means losâ€" ing ourselves in the desert and the mountains for a long whileâ€"there‘s no telling how longâ€"but it will be terâ€" ribly romantic and fine for my health and when next you hear from me J may be so rich I‘ll send you a solidâ€" gold sewingâ€"machine, mamma,., and papa a solidâ€"gold pulpit. Mem had never heard of Palm Springs, but she was looking for just such a place. . And wanted to see a ranch. She wanted to get . away from everybody that had ever known her. She wanted to find some deep darkâ€"cave. Darling Mamma and Papa:â€" By now you have probably ceased to be surâ€" prised at anything I do.

She‘s on her knees to me. Mrs. Randles her name is. Husband‘s got a ranch. How‘d you like to go there and take the job ?" The other voice moaned: _ "Me? Not much. I run away from home to git love and excitment!" _ Heat, and fatigue whipped her inâ€" to hysteria. She found energy enough for one last desperate letter home. Then she would declare her soul bankâ€" rupt and face the world free or reâ€" sponsibilities to he past. "Who was that letter you got, frorm, some fellow ?" "Nah!

And that way came to her before the long day had burned itself away, for she heard two waitresses talking Now Go on With the Story At her boarding house in Yuma, she met an old man who told her of his partner of prospecting days the name of Woodville reminded him of his friend‘s, which was Woodward "or something like that," as he remâ€" mbered itâ€"and how he had died in the desert.

She hoped that he would not recogâ€" nise her, but he studied all the faces and, being used to disguises, made her out without the password: "How you standing it ?" She called up to him: "All right, thank you." There was vast interest in her from now on. â€" The leading man had singâ€" led out an extra woman for special attention, and the gossip went round with a rush as of wings. A certain motorist found himself facing a local Justice of the Peace. A fine of five pounds was imposed, and, drawing out his case, he laid two notes on the desk. Mem could not believe that this was she who stumbled across the sand, twitching her skirts out of the talons fo the cactus, carefully dabbing the sweat from her face with a handkerâ€" chief already colored like a paintors brush rag, and jingling, as she walked, with ‘barbaric jewelry. "Well, of course, if it would be: doâ€" ing you a favorâ€"" _ "An immense favor!" "I don‘t know anything, you know." "That‘s all the better. You have nothing to unlearn. Here‘s Mr, Ellis, the assistant director. He‘ll take care of you. I‘ve got to go." * The director divided the extras into groups, with business assigned to each. A man in a pith helmet, dark gogâ€" gles, and a riding suit drove up and was gomplaining: * 6 In the heat that drove the desert Indians into the shade and idleness, dainty actresses and actors invited sunstrokes, and after a time the exâ€" tras were called forth from the comâ€" parative shelter of the tents to the seene of action. Mrs. Kittery, the wardrobe woman, and Leva Lemaire (who in private life was Mrs. David Wilkinson) helped Mem into one of the cars after she had made explanations and said fareâ€" well to the curious ranchman. While Mrs. Kittery found a costume for her, Mrs. Wilkinson, who was an "extra woman," took the job of making her up. Watching a scene being taken Robâ€" ina Teele on that biggest camel.

"Say, Holby, do you realize you‘re keeping the whole company waiting in this ghastly heat ?" "All right," he said, "I‘ll take a chance. Two ‘of the extra women keeled over thic morning from the heat. I‘ll have my assistant take her to the wardrobe woman and get her fitted out and make up. She can appear in the famine scene." _ â€" _ "I‘ve taken a great liberty. â€"I ean‘t bear the thought of your working as a servant when there may be a big career before you in the pictures. There is a shortage in the company for the big scene, Mem listened to Leva: "That‘s and you‘d be a godsend. To please meâ€"I mean the directorâ€" do this, won‘t you ?" _ es The caravan grew restive, too, and Mem was consumed with perplexity as she saw one of the animals foreed to his knees not far from her. The shiek, or whatever he was, tumbled from the saddle and ran to her.

She lay still, reclinging, not in pain, but in wonderment, as the wagon slid on its side, the driver stumbling along and still clinging to the lines as if he tried to hold giant falcons in leash. A brown face looked out from the hood, and from the scarlet lips surâ€" rounded by a short beard came a voice startlingly unâ€"Arabic. "Miss Steddon! Miss Remember She snub the head. "I beg your pardon, Mr. Folger," said Tom, and walked beside the dirâ€" ector. â€" "Just a moment, old man. That girl is a friend of mine and beautiful as a peach.

The director twisted in his saddle and stared at Mem with expert eyes, then laughed at Holby. _ ‘ The caravan resumed its: plodding advance, and Holby turned back to say to Remember: billowy humps, men in the garb of Bedouins.
