dropped down sweet music, they repeated

singing of their love for each other, the
flowers all blooming, the chestnuts bud

Violante, holding her little son in her
arms. it seemed as though the world had
never been 30 bright before.
The May sunbeams peeped into the
room where she lay with the little boy In
her arms, and Lord Vivian Selwyn, as he
looked, thought be had never seen SO fair
a picture as she, with her pale, sweet face
and white lace draperies, presented. All
xhe love he felt for the fair-haired young
xirl was as nothing to the warm, deep
devotion that filed his heart for his wife

~Apothecary Sick, of Bergkirchen in
Westphalia entertained the Kaiser
against his will at the time OF the
army rnanoeuvres in September. The
apothecary owns a hous in the out
skirts with a piazza running along the
first story. He had been obliged to
quarter a numebr of officers n men
during their stay in the town, and
had turned over to them every spare
room and bed. He kept the room open
ing on the piazza for himself and his
wife, and one night went to bed leaV~
ing the house door on the latch for
the convenience of his guests. At 4
o'clock in the morning Kaiser Will
helm, with his staff, entered the town.
The Kaiser noticed the piazza and
thought it a good place from which to
observe the country. An officer was
sent ahead to clear the way, the
Kaiser following Immediately behind.
The officer, who was the Grand Duke
of Mecklenburg, came to the door of
Herr Siek's bed room, knocked, and
getting no answer, pushed 1t open and

that Lord Vivian Selwyn, with the ladies
of his household, had come up to London
to spend the season there, and it had been
decided that Lady Selwyn and Miss
Leigh should be presented at the drawing
room to be held on the fourth of June.
The morning of the day Lady Violante
had dreaded so long dawned at last,
bright and beautiful, with sunshine that
reminded one of the scent of roses and
mignonette-warm and invigorating. The
sky was clear and blue as the heaven that
smiles on sunny Italy. Lady Violante
awoke with a sigh; the day she had fear
ed had dawned, and must somehow be
got through.
They were in the library, ready at last,
and Vivian, as he looked on the two Ia
dies before him, felt proud as he had new
er done before. Mrs. Selwyn had declin-
ed going, and her grace the Duchess OF
Roxminster was to present Lady Selwyn
to the Queen. They were dressed now,
and waiting. Lady Violante looked, In
her delicate loneliness, like the queen OF
the ~lilies;" her dress of What Lord VIVIAN
called May sunbeams, and her tiara OF
diamonds, with the white plumes, suited
her TO perfection. She tried to reassure
herself, but the small jeweled hands trem-
bled and the sweet lips half Quivered as
they smiled.
Court dress suited the imperial beauty
of Beatrice Leigh as no other did. Mrs.
Selwyn had presented her with a mag
nifcent suite Of diamonds and rubies. her
dress was Of maize-colored velvet, ana
the rich, sweeping train was no trouble 10
her. One could see at a glance That she

beauty She WAS herself well satisfied
when she saw Vivian's eyes rest admir-
ingly on her.
They stood at last in one of the ante
rooms, and there her Grace of Roxminster
was waiting for an introduction to them.
Miss Leigh had. known the duchess for
some time. To Lady Selwyn she was a
complete stranger. There had been one
or two appointments made for an intro
duction, but her grace's engagements hao
prevented the keeping of them.
When she, Lady Violante Selwyn, $1,000

face, to watch the beautiful Diusnes
mantling to the very edge of the goioen

One evening, dinner was over, n tne

She would have liked best not to notice

compelled to take 1t.
.'They are love verses" he said, senti.

10 his sentiment by tearing the envelope
In two, and throwing it away. 1t was
not perhaps very well bred, it was Ger,
