CHAPTER I-Continued.

They rallied round her that night in
all the splendor of their ancien regime,
and the duchess was herself immeas-
urably magnificent. But sooth to say,
the gentle lady in the imperial box,
with the gruesome man of power be-
side her. wore her diadem with as fine
q grace and was trifle more magnifi-
cent yet-she could not be more beau
tiful. The ducehss herself was not slow
to see that charm of distinction, and TO
acknowledge it with her own lovely
graciouSness.
1t was when they We're leaving the
house that just as the duchess was
passing to her carriage, her cloak
slipped from her shoulder, and young
officer of the Imperial guard, standing
near, passed an idle jest, only half un-
der his breath, about that dazzling
shoulder.
The duke waited upon his wife to her
carriage, and then returned; and paus-
ing deliberately to draw off his glove,
he slapped the young officer with it
across the cheek, and went back to the
carriage which was waiting.
1T was foolishness," the duchess
heard NJ. Etienne saying when he came
in shortly after their return. 1T was
a madness! Why have heard it? Why
have fiattered the fianeur with notice ?

for quiet. His friend will be here to-
morrow-and of course the duke will
waive considerations of rank"

You mock yourself with mew said

Not at all. 1t is a sous-lieutenant

hand is less sure than it was, and this
NJ. Leconte is the finest swordsman in
