" she cried. " Let him come out from his lair in the cafe of the hashish smokers, and, as Allah is great, I will spit in his face. The reviler of women ! The son of a scorpion ! Cursed be his- And then once more she desired evil to the grandmother of Ben-Abid, and to all his fam- ily. And the Zouaves and the dancers laughed over their card games. Indeed, the other dancers were merry, and not ill-pleased with Ben-Abid's words. For even in the Sahara the women do not care that one of them should ...be exalted above the rest.
Now, in Touggourt gossip is carried from house to house, as the sand grains are carried on the wind. Within an hour Ben-Abid heard that his grandmother had been cursed, and him- self called son of a scorpion, by Halima. Kouidah, the boy, ran on naked feet to tell 274: HALIMA AND THE SCORPIONS him in the cafe of the hashish smokers. When he heard he smiled.
" To-night I will go to the dancing-house, and speak with Halima, " he murmured. And then he plucked the guitar of goatskin that was ever in his hands, and sang softly of the joys of Ladham Pacha, half closing his eyes, and swaying his head from side to side.
