So we talked until it was quite late
and took my leave. The next morn
ing took occasion to pass the Vanas-
torbilt palace and saw the butler and
the two footmen, aided by the boy in
buttons busy with broom, mop, buster
and watering pot, cleaning up the
great ballroom floor. They seemed in
very bad temper, and no wonder, con-
sidering how many social affairs they
had been obliged to abandon as result
of the sudden change in the plans of
their mistress.
1t happened some days later that I
passed the great palace again. Within
its majestic portals beheld a bewh's-
kered gentleman, clad In the most lr
reproachable travelling costume, who
had evidently just arrived. He was
laden with bundles and stood between
a pair of obsequious servants who
bowed and respectfully relieved him of
his burdens. | Immediately recognized
one of the buffers who had been con-
spicuous at the little servants party
few evenings before, while the other
servant was the same impertinent fell
low who had insisted upon kissing me.

evidently installing me for some parlor
maid in her mistress toggery. How
ever, forgot to manifest a natural re-
sentiment in the general distraction
that ensued when a telegram came, and
was read by the coachman, saying that
Mrs Vanastorbilt and the children
would be down in few days.
Here was too evidently state OF
things, The butler had his brother
and his three cousins staying in the
place, and the cook was indignant be
cause she would not be able to wear
one of Mrs. vanastorbilts dresses at
the annual ball of the Wallets club.
But they afterwards reflected that the
family might have put in an appearance
without the formality of prior tele-
gram. and then the Vanastorbilts might
have felt embarrassed
