 not be able to successfully pilot an au- tomobilc over our ordinary country roads ur city streets. says d well

As we learn our machine, we ind that it is easy to control and simple to manage. The nervous pa- tent, no matter how timid need not fear to take the first lesson at the steering wheel; what appears to be dif- hcnlt and pcrplcXing at first soon be- comes easy and fascinating. A good deal Of nOnscnse has been written about the strenuous automobile face and the effects of wind and dust upon the eyes and lungs. Most of the faces l notice in the automobiles that pass, reflect contcntm2nt and happiness.

Speaking of this age of great and widespread credit write. in q New York paper says that tue conviction that men as q rule arc trustworthy. and will stand by their pledged word. was never so much diSuscd as it is today, and was never co well justi. fled by the facts. The greater part of the wholesale transactions of our great cities are covered by no sort of material guarantee. They arc based upon the conviction that in the big machine of business every wheel is doing its proper work in the right way and with right purpose. 1t has bren pointed out that in the great crashes of the business world, such as the Black Friday of 1873. men in large numbers accepted ruin rather tban re. pUdata their pledged word. This grows more and more true with every generation in this country. We have heard so much of the seamy side of the sales of bonds and stocks. and the organization of trusts. that we ara tempted to think that America is going down steep hill to moral ruin. This impression grows out of fasten- ing attention on very limited part of big field IL is as though We csti- mated the social life of great city from it's police reports. and ignored the great mass of honest and pure minded people, who never are named in a newspaper, except when they arc married and when they are buried. There would hc more reason for haN ing said such things of earlier genera tions of American men of business. We cannot get so far back as tht mid. dlc ages. when honest" tradesmen in London put up their shutters at sun down. to play houschrrakcrS with tue shops of their friends.

| yhat when the leaders norified the So cial Democrats that a truce. had been proclaimed immediately after the close 1 of the zemstvoists' congress they were told that the gantlet would again be thrown down to the aristocracy, but that this time the sovereign. who was specifically declared to be exempt from danger during the recent activity, as shown in the trial of Sasoneff. the as sassin of Minister von Plehve, would be included in tue challenge.

 Evidence is accommodating that En- peror Nicholas throughout the present crisis has acted largely upon the ad- vice of Grand Duke Sergius. who is the most reactionary member of the imperial family, the head of what is denominated the war party and whom the Liberals stigmatize as Russia $ evil genius. With the first appearance of Father Gopon in the movement Ser gius urged the necessity of putting down the demonstrations in the most energetic manner
 Emperor Nicholas and members of the imperial family are reported to be determined on drastic measures for the suppression of all agitation for eco- homie or political reform. Reports con- tinue rife that the terrorists are pre- pared to resume their activities.
 Father Gopon, the leader of the St. Petersburg workmen. is reported to have escaped to Stockholm. The holy synod has denounced him as "crimi- nal priest" q betrayer of his sacred office.

l do not wish to be mixed up in any
official investigation When all is said
and done, the Prince is uninjured and his
affairs hardly concern me-
The Russian produced an envelop. 1t
bore a name and the number of house
on Charlotte-st ASK there for Ivan
Stephanovitch, and you will find me,
he said.
John, the son of Stephen, certainly
acted like one who did not shirk scrutiny
Armstrong was more than ever puzzled
by his behavior.
You have met me in a straight
forward way" he admitted; "but you
must acknowledge that my suspicious
were natural, especially when l saw the
opal carried by Prince Melnikoff."
How came you to see it?"
Because he had lost it"
This time his words penetrated the
husk of Indifference, either felt or as
sumed, by the gigantic Ivan. The man
clutched his arm in an iron grasp, and
his big eyes blazed, as he cried: Lost
it? Has it gomez"
mo, no." was the assurance; "it fell
in a neighboring field. 1t was 1 who
found it."
And you restored it to him3"
Eyes"
How is it that you, an Englishman,
take such an interest in foreigner?"
Their roles were reversed suddenly
The Russian was thoroughly excited by
the mere suggestion that the opal had
left its rightful owners possession, and
Armstrong found himself not only per-
picked now, but embarrassed

koff at the house of Lord Valletort /

do you mean that Melnikoff would
dare to think of marrying some girl here
in England?"
"Assured1y. 1t looks like it,
Were it not for his own bitterness of
spirit evoked by the unexpected turn
taken by the conversation, he must have
been startled by the rage which con-
vulsed Stephanovitch's face.
Frank was staring gloomily into va
cancy, until his eyes CHANGED to catch
the wondering look of a policeman stand
ing at the corner of Carlos Place. Then
he turned toward his companion again,
and was amazed to see the vindictiveness
portrayed in the Russians forbidding
countenance. The man, apparently yield
ing to impulse, brought forth his envelop
once more.
Tell the driver to take us there"
he growled, indicating the address.
why? l assure you that am salts
fled with your explanation"
Tell him" persisted the other
But there is no reason. l believe
you live there"
The Russian flung his hand outward in
anger. What do l care what you be-
heve?" he cried. eff you are friend
of these people, you must warn them
that Boris Melnikoff never can marry
one of their kin. Come with mel l

fed by the mere hint of vulgar intrigue
into which the name of Ermyntrude
might be drawn.

ware, lest carve the recollection on his
hearth
| 1t was essential that Frank should
calm the man. A giant, believing threats
in Russian and saving the air with
clenched fists over the doors of hanson,
is not customary object in Berkeley
Square. Passing cabmen were grinning
sarcastically, and people were standing
on the pavement to look after the fast
moving vehicle, while Armstrong be-
came aware that their own driver was
squirting at them through the little
trap-door in the roof.
| To pacify the Russian he assured him
that, after depositing his belongings at
his Jermyn-st. lodgings, he would &C
company him. Thenceforth, not a word
would Ivan utter until they reached the
neighborhood of Charlotte-st At some
little distance, seeming to recognize his
whereabouts, he told Armstrong to stop
the vehicle They proceeded on foot to
one of the soiled houses of bygone ele-
gance which are to be found in that part
of London. Letting himself in with a
| latch-key, the Russian, followed by his
strangely made acquaintance, went rap
| idly upstairs to the first floor.
| 1t was dark there. and the solitary door
communicating with the suite of apart
ments on that floor was yelled by heavy
curtain. The big man, energetic in his
| movements, notwithstanding his great
stature, turned the handle as he swept
aside the portiere, and Armstrong heard
woman's voice cry gladly:
us that you, Vonia?"
The diminutive form of the Russians
name, as g Johnnie" for John" in Eng
lish, showed that the man hailed thus
was an intimate friend or relative.
Hush, NatushkaP' he replied. 81
bring one to meet thee"
Armstrong caught a startled ejacula-
ton; but it was he, and not the woman
suddenly encountered in the strong light
of the sitting-room, who was taken at a
disadvantage. At first he was SPELL
bound. To enter dingy London dwell
ing and find therein an Eastern odalisque,
attired with barbaric splendor, and
beautiful as the dark-haired Circassian
nymph beloved of Don Juan, in itself
was disconcerting thing.
The woman, or girl, for she was not
twenty years of age, might have been the

realm. She was tall and finely modelled,
with the full lips, the creamy skin which
Persian poets delight in describing as
moon-faced,' the dark, deer-like eyes
of the rarest type of Georgian loveliness
Her shining black hair was caught back
from smooth forehead by gold circlet.
Around her graceful neck was another
golden ornament, its fine mesh lying close
to the skin and glinting duly as it fol-
lowed the curves of her throat A
bodice of light blue silk was half revealed
| by flowing robe of white muslin, fast
ened at her slim waist by golden belt.
| But it was not her costume, nor the
wondrous effect of her Eastern beauty,
which transfxed Armstrong; gaze. Giro
let, necklet and belt each bore the device
of three tents in tiny opals set along the
sides of triangular-shaped rubies.
Even while the two gazed wonderingly
at each other-for the girl seemed to be
almost as surprised as he-the big Rus
sian cried:
What is your name, Englishman?"
