I'll CO. for I'm very weak I'm drunk with
love still, I'm full Of what that careless,
free life might be, our paradise. You must
decide, dear. Whatever you say, I'll do.
I'll be the wife Of a common gentleman,
or I'll be the wife of a busy prince. Choose
for me, Karl"
Mallory put her from him. gently, and
rose to his feet and went over to the little
fountain. and stood there with his back
to the princess. fighting his fight.
/ think he knew what the end must be. l
think he had known from the first moment
when he had put the thing sanely to his
judgment. but the great passion of love
that he bore the princess fought bitterly
for mastery Of him, painted in cruelty
glowing tints the life that lay open to his
choice, the possession that must otherwise
be lost to him utterly-all for what the
world calls honor
He turned back toward the Princess
Eleanor with hopeless little gesture. and
his head dropped.
"If there's any honor left to such a man
as I. Eleanor" said he YEARLY. ut isn't of
much consequence, and I suppose / should
not hesitate to chuck 1t over If the price
were high enough, but you've laid your
honor in my hands, dear, and I maynt
soil 1t: Some day-later on, you'll know
what I'm giving up.
and put out her arms over his shoulders so
that her hands held the back of his head,
and kissed him, and laid her head once
more upon his breast.
she cried very low. "Ah knew! Honor
binds us both, Carlo, doesn't It? And we
must stay. You could not love me- dear, so
much, loved you not honor more. It's the
busy prince, then, isn't it. dear? Still, I
shall be your wife. 1t isn't If we were
to part, don't let's be so solemn over 1t.
I'm still your wife, Karl
"Ah, yes, yes said Denis, looking away.
Eyes, you'll still be my-wife. 1t isn't If
we were to part. Come, Eleanor, you must
go in. The sun is low and it's growing
cool. Come, or Mackenzie will say that
I'm not taking proper care Of you
Under the kind shelter of the old re-
fectory porch she raised her face to him
and he kissed her lips.
''You must remember-later on Eleanor"
said he-hfs voice still sounded weary and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS that I gave up
what-what you offered me-that wasn't
quite so despicable as might have been.
All, you 1oveliest thing in all Gods great
world, how I love you! Hearts soul. how
I love you" And he turned and left her
and went down through the long garden
with his head hanging low.

over his lips.

It was near noon. and Denis had been
hard at work all the morning with his

before him on the table.

Eleanor of Novodnia came down the
gravel path of Paradise and her eyes were

morn-if only 1t hadn't been golden after
noon.
She sang in little low voice. as one sings

And 50 fall asleep, Love.

Denis, sitting upon the old stone
bench by the fountain stared at
the trucking water and would not turn
his head. He gave little gasp, though,
and his heart dropped a beat. when she laid
her two hands suddenly over his eyes,
standing behind him. and demanded whom
he thought she possibly might be. They
were cool and soft and firm, the hands, but
they set his blood to jumping if they
burned him.

unuutntully, L can imagine, but L should

God bless herr!
The archangel joined the sorry knave
upon the old stone bench.
And he?" she asked softly, what does
he do in return for the certain angels
pity?"
Denis dropped his face into his hands
God help him!" he groaned He loves
her better than his honor"

Rumorcd Dissatisfaction of Former
with Latter Denied.

Rome, Feb. S.--The vatican empha-
tically denies all the rumors OF Cardinal
Rampola's dissatisfaction regarding
Gov. Tafts attitude IN the Philippine
questions. Dissatisfaction Is felt at
the vatican toward the arrangements
initiated by Guilds predecessors with
the medators, to whom, In addition to
large salaries they promised 20 per
cent OF the property should the medl-
ators succeed in retaining it for the
church
The effect Of Guilds latest reports
and mature consideration seem to have
decided the vatican that the best sOlu-
ton is 10 return TO the original prop
osition made by the United States TO
resort to arbitration for the purchase OF
the friar lands and the settlement Of
the rentals. the indemnity for damage
due from the United States and the ad-
ministration Of the charitable and edu-
cational trusts.
