upon her memory; but no, it could not

ways to suggest causes of jealousy TO

could he know? The soothing convic-
ton grew upon her that the taunt was
thrown at her for what il was worth.
oh. how she hated Sagan-hated his

She pushed back the lace from her
wrist, and saw the thin, blue parallels
of bruised flesh his fingers had left
entirely unawares. it must be owned
upon her whiteneSs. All, she would
show these to Rallywood-as a proof
that she was in danger. that she act
ually needed his protection. and so
win him from his post, which tonight
would become the post of death.
All her little vain soul thrilled within
her at the possibility of triumph-of de-
feating the honor of such a man-of
winning him from his watch for loves
sake-of overcoming the scruples that
had for so long time stood out against
her wiles
And yet in her poor way she loved
him-loved him as she would probably
never love another. Some women are
made in that way: they take pride in
the loftineSS of the height from which
they drag men down. Then he must
be saved she told herself. at all costs
saved, He would live to thank her yet.
A thought of him lying dead in his
blood by the dark enybrasure that
masked the entrance to the royal apart

CHAPTER XII.
Anthony Unfair.

No one could have gathered, from the
quiet aspect of Rallywood's tall, SOL
dierly figure. that a whirl of emotion
was passing through his brain. Yet
above all rose ore dominant sensation
"a vast relief. Counselor shared his
own opinion with regard TO Valerie.
| Her daring words to the duke had no
serious meaning; they were only the
natural echo of a girls preference for a
| young and beautiful woman to preside
! over the court, rather than the bloated
rake who now lolled uneasily in the
chair before him. He recalled the for
lorn little smile with which she had
accepted Won Elmur's lover-like pro-
testations at Nine. de SaganS door,
way. Its forlornness had been lost
upon Unfair, who had drawn but one
merciless conclusion from the little
scene. Close on the heels of these re-
Elections a vivid recollection rose be-
fore Rallywood's mind Of the first
night he had met her. The lights and
music of the grand saloon of Sagan
died away, and he was standing again
on the ridge below the Hotel du Chan
celier. looking out over the glimmering
lamps of Revonde, dominated, as al
ways. by the regnant red eye of the
guards dome. and he felt once more
that strange new warmth and thrill in
his veins which, at the time, he had
believed to be born of an opening ca
reer beset with danger and difficulty.
Tonight. however, he judged more
clearly; he knew that his dull life had
been rekindled and his ambitions had
taken fresh fire from the dark starlit
eyes Valerie Selpdorf had raised to his
in the chancelor's anteroom two months
ago.

Hollywood started. The duke made
him a sign to approach. Then. rising
from his chair. he took the young mans
arm, and leaning heavily upon it,
moved towards the card room, meeting
Unfair with Madamoiselle Selpdorf on
the way.
Hey, Madamoiselle Valerie he
stopped abruptly, would you teach
my guards treason?'
''To teach your highness' guards trea-
son is impossible,'' replied Valerie with
a slight lifting of her proud head
1.-THE influence of a beautiful woman
has no limit" retorted the duke
Valerie's lips trembled.
Generations have already proved the
fidelity of the Selpdorfs has also no
limit But l beg you to accept an
apology for my foolish words"
But such words from a Selpdorf,'
I'VE have always been loyal. sire
The duke shook his head sadly.
But the world changes-what has
been is not. And the first reason now
adays why a thing should no longer
be. is the fact that once it was
Valerie was almost as tall as the
duke himself, and she looked level into
his weary eyes.
Have We changed with the world,
sire?"
''Not-yet," replied the duke. bitterly;
then, struck, as it seemed, by the in
trinsic spirit of the young imperial face
gazing down into his own, he added:

Love In Two Shades.

All the next morning the snow fell
persistently, and Sagan might have
been. as far as appearances went, a
castle built in the air. Above, below,
around, the snow eddied like a fairy
torrent. beating against the solid walls
and curling in curious ringed swirls
about its buttresses as water beats
about rock in m:d-stream.
But the dominant gray of the outside
world cast no appreciate reflection on
the spirits of Nine. de Sagan's guests,
with whom gayety and wild devices
for killing time were necessary and ia
miliar things.
But to Valerie the same suggestion of
fear and unrest that had oppressed her
on the previous evening still held its
silent sway over the place. She stood
at the broad window of the main stair
case watching the swift atoms of snow
drift past, each one by itself a mere
melting point, but, in their millions,
mighty. She shivered and looked round
with an odd sense of apprehension. as
IL the vague, blind storm outside had
it's counterpart in a vague, blind dan
ger within.
A tall man came leaping up the stair
case. He stopped beside her. She look
ed up at him, her deep eyes were full
of some disturbing thought.
Captain Hollywood, will:you tell Ma.

The record of the American soldier
boy during the late war has been of the
highest possible sort, but if any are de
serving of special praise, it seems that
the BOYS from the mountain states now
on duty at Manila are the ones. To the
great bravery which has characterized
every American regiment that was un-
der fire. the western boys at Manila
have added the greatest patience and
cheerfulness. OF course, the officers
commanding there have the advantage
of the experience gained by the cam
palgns with the Spanish guerilla methods
in Cuba, but the western men have shown
themselves fully capabl. of profiting by
that experience. They rush to the
