Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Papyrus, Vol. 9: January, 1908
The savant is all very well with his coal mines, but how about my poor friend Pujol?
What I had just unearthed belonged not to the mineral kingdom. Poor fellow! I remembered his remark: The climate of Aden has a tendency to enervate men, but with woman, on the contrary, its effect is exciting. And just now, at the dwelling of this young, handsome and luxuriously established Arab, I had found a pearl which had fallen from the earring of Madame Pujol, and which even retained a trace of her favorite perfume.
