for his generous character and gentle disposi-

riage was not happy. Notwithstanding the fact
that it was blessed by six beautiful children.
The noble lady turned out to be vixen. Her
temper was simply hendlsh and her tongue
went on forever" She was Stunned by the
society Of Madrid, whose gossip often touched
upon her devlltry. So she lived In compare
tive retirement, aud spent most OF her time in
forming fruilless projects OF vengeance against
innocent people whom she regarded as her
enemies. Two years ago tho husband at last
became tired Of the siork OF scones which
she had always on hand for his special benefit.
He began q suit for separation. He won the
legal battle but tho Court allowed him to take
away only three Of tho six children. with whom
he retired to Barcelona.
