themselves open. Nevertheless ev-

erything went awry.
1t was certain Andreas Gabor
whom Ella encouraged most mark
edly, and, as her brother had occa-
sion to point out later, her unex-
pected mismanagement Of the affair
ended in the Gyurkovics family
having to return to their country
home after their fortnight was
over without having received the
proposal which was evidently their
due, thing which had never hap
pened to them beforei
Andreas Gabor, with whom the
fourth Miss Gyurkovics had really
fallen in love, was an exceedingly
eligible and we'll behaved young
lawyer, perhaps almost too correct
In his behavior to fall in with the
usual plans of the country family.
A young man who set himself to
check the walters bill while the
supper csardas was being danced
and who appeared to grow more
and more circumspect the more
champagne he took might well
arouse the suspicious of Mamma
Gyurkovios.
II believe that young Gabor is
after money" she observed to her
daughter. Perhaps it would be as
well if you gave him his congo, SO
that he does not manage to spoil
your other chances
But Ella was really in love and
was not at all inclined to let An
dreas slip. Somehow she contrived
that he seldom danced with any
other girl and was generally beside
her walking or on the ice. When
she touched his champagne glass
with hor own before drinking, and
he saw her brown eyes look straight
into his, In spite Of her mothers
warming frown, the young mans
head, cool as it was, began to buzz
with strange fanoies.
How can one think Of marrying
into such family unless one is a
regular 'Rothschild7 I don't know
what they would expect, butt
Gabor left this thought unfinished
and picked up Elias fan, which lay
beside her.
"What lovely fanl I should
like to get one like it for my sister
Are they very expensive9"
"Oh, not at ALL If you like,
could order one for you-only 80
horinsi''
The young man bit his lip.
Eighty horinsi'' he thought to
himself. "Just the third part of
my month g salaryl"
One of the young Gyurokvicses
was angrily finding fault with a
waiter. he had ordered Monopol,
and they had brought him Pro
montore Monopol.
''Do you take me for cab driver
that you serve me with Hungarian
champagne9" he demanded in n
rage.
mo, no, I cannot marry into such
an extravagant family as this!''
Andreas Gabor sighed to himself.
The fortnight was almost over,
the fanaily's money was almost fin.
ished, and it began to be time for
them to pack and return home.
Ella, who was as lovesick as any
schoolgirl, did not know how to face
the approaching parting. She pin
ned, all her hopes on the farewell
supper party, at which all the
Gyurkovicses were to be entertained
by Gabor and his set. Perhaps he
meant to speak out on this last op-
portunity. He sat, as usual, at her
side, and, what with the thought of
parting and the tenderness Of ELIAS
manner, he came very nearly for
getting his prudent resolve Of the
previous week. It was stupid ac-
ton on Elias part which recalled
him to his right mind. The gynaiee
were playing ELIAS favorite mel
ody, and she called across Gahor to
her brother, the deputy.
MILAN, / want you to lend me
three 10 form notes.
''What for9"
To give the gypsies.''
"Nonsensei That's my affair.""
When che saw that ne did not
mean to give her the money, ahe
loosed from her arm a shining gold
bangle, act with little brilliants, and
tossed it into the plate which the
gypsies had handed round. The
deputy brother seemed annoyed at
first; then he began to laugh and re-
deemed the bracelet with SO fiorins.
s. Andreas Gabor bnttoned up his
coat.
ST should be a fool, merely fit for
a strait waistcoat, if I offered my
self in such a family !" thought he,
and with that he turned TO the lady
on his other side, to whom he had
only just been introduced and whose
name he had not caught, and began
