There was Guggenslocker among the
names. AS last resort he asked:
They could not have sailed under an
assumed name. could they?'
81 can't say as to that. Where are they
going?"
"Graustark'
But the young man shook his head
slowly, Lorry's shaking in unconscious
accord
Are you sure that you saw the young
lady on board?"
We'll. rather!' exclaimed Lorry, en-
phatically..
Il was going to say there are lot of
Italian and German singers on the ship,
and you might have been mistaken. But
since you are so positive, it seems very
strange that your friends are not on the
list.
So Lorry went away discouraged and
with a vague fear that she might have
been prima donna whose real name
was GuggenslCcker. but whose stage
name was something more euphonious.
He instantly put away the thought and
the fear. She was certainly not an op-
era singer.-imrossibie! He drove back
to his hotel, and made preparations for
his return to Washington Glancing cas-
ually over the register he came to the
name that had been haunting him-Gug-
par Guggenslocker and four, Graustark."
Without hesitation he began to question
the clerk.
'They sailed en- the Kaiser Wilhelm to-
day." said that worthy. That's all
know about them. They came yesterday
and left to-day"
Mr.. Grenfall Lorry returned to Wash
ington as in a dream-a fairy dream. The
air of mystery that had grown from the
first was now an impenetrable wall the
top of which his curiosity could not scale.
Even his fancy, his imagination, served
him not There was but one point on
which he was satisfied: he was in love.
His own condition no mystery.
Several weeks later he went to New
York to question the captain of the Will
helm hoping TO clear away the clouds
satisfactorily. To his amazement the cap
tain said there had been no Guggenslock-
ers on board nor had there been persons
answering the description. SO far as he
could tell.
Through the long hot summer he
worked and worried and wondered In
the first, he did little that was satisfac-
tory to himself or to his uncle; in the
second, he did so much that he was adj
vised by his physician to take a rest; in
the last, be indulged himself so extern
sively that it had become unbearable. He
must know all about her But how?
The early months of autumn found him
pale and tired and Indifferent alike to
work and play. He found no pleasure in
society that had known him as a lion.
Women bored him; men annoyed him; the
play suffoeated him: the tiresome club
was running his temper; the whole world
was going wrong. The doctor told him
he was approaching nervous prostration;
his mothers anxious eyes could no longer
be denied. so he realized grimly that
there was but one course left open to
him. He suggested it to the doctor. to
his mother and to his uncle, and they
agreed with him. 1t involved Europe
Having fully decided again to cross the
sea his spirits revived. He became more
cheerful. took an interest in things that
were going on and by the time the Kaiser
Wilhelm sailed in September was the pic
ture of health and life.
He was off for Edelweiss-to the strange
Miss Guggenslocker who had thrown him
kiss from the deck that sailing day.
