Frederick tho Great and His Dogs.

Frederick the Greats fondness for
dogs amounted to a passion. He al
ways had five or six Italian greyhounds
about him, leaping upon chairs and
sleeping on the touches in his room.
During his last illness he used to sit
on the terrace at Sans Souci and al
ways had a dog at his side occupying

with the Inconvenience" One OF
Frederick's dogs, Biche, attained his
toric celebrity. 1t Is stated that the
king took Biche with him on the cam
paign Of 1745. One day the king, i'd
vancing on a reconnaissance, was cur
prised and pursued by the Austrians.
He took refuge under a bridge, and,
wrapping Biche in his cloak, held him
to his breast. The sagacious dog
seemed fully conscious of the peril OF
his master, and though Of a nervous
temperament and disposed to bark at
the slightest disturbance, he remained
perfectly quiet until the Austrlans had
passed. At the battle of Sohr, Biche
was taken captive with the kings bag.

that the kings eyes were flooded with
tears. Travellers visit the tombs OF

Princess Louis Lorinofr. BY Jove. I
don't envy Monsieur lie Prince! Not a
bit If it-not even for half Il million OF
mo"ey. And I'm to keep out of his
way. Well, I'll obey that command
with all the pleasure in life. Aud
I'm not to marry before I'm forty
that's what it amounts to practically.
Well, | don't know that | mind that
very much-do !? All! well, l don't
so much know about that-I-" and
then lie stopped short and fell into a
sort of dream, u dream Of himself
walking along n country road and be-
side him-"and, oh! damnatlon,' said
Dick Aylmcr aloud, what did the
old brute want to write to me for?'
He struck Il match and set fire to the
letter; then a sudden thought occurred
to him and he crushed the flame out
and locked the letter carefully away in
his dispatch box. II may find that re-
mark about marrying again useful he
said to himself. Anyway, best to
keep it,"
But though he had locked the letter
away he could not put the thoughts Of
1t away from him as easily. Indeed, 1t
kept coming back to him again and
again. particularly that one unpalatable
sentence about him waiting till he wds
forty before he need expect his uncle
to hear of his marrying under a GER
tain amount of dover with the bride.
Now, Dick Aylmer was utterly ig-
norant of the circumstances in which
the little girl of his dream was placed.
She might have a dover, 1t might be
large or small. he did not know; and
on the other hand. it was more than
likely hat she had not so much as a
penny in the world. Somehow, al
though he had never been within the
precincts of Graveleigh Hall. he had
an idea that it was a place without
much money behind II. True, the beds
in front of the house were gay with
flowers and the house was large and
of a certain appearance. But the hedges
which skirted the sloping meadow were
none too well kept; the entrance gates
needed a coat Of paint badly, and had
apparently got well used to the neces-
sity; the drive was not very well kept,
and altogether he fancied that Dorothy
Strode's dover would be but a thing OF
small Importance compared with his
uncle's idea of what Dicks wife ought
to be possessed Of.
Now, / may as well say here that
Dick Alymer had made up his mind tt
marry the little girl Of his dream. Il
might be sooner or it might be later
but he meant to do it all the same. !

by Jove, he reminded himaelf that ne

and he had naturally said your aunt

Objectionable persons as aristocratic re-

And then when he reached GravcleiSh.
the long struggling village street with
its quaint old-world shops and It's odd
little postoiiice, he pulled up the good
horse and stopped to make inquiries.
Can you tell rue where Graveleish
Hall is?" he asked of a respectable
woman.
why yes. s.r-you do go along that
road and take the first turn to the right
and then 20 do come to It," she re-
piled.

pleasantly.
The good woman watched him as he

And Dick drove gaily along. getting
more and more light hearted as he
went; for was he not getting nearer
and nearer with every stride of ole
Derby's legs to her? But he did no

watched. Scarce vas he past the en-
