 "Only in moments of profound pen siveness," he answered with the in dolent. indulgent irony that was one of his most attractive qualities. He had regained his mental balance.
 She could not resist the bait: And what were you so profoundly pensive about?'
 Do you have to ask?" he inquired, his tone accurately modulated. 'of whom am I always"
 For space she let her eyes say the proper things; then her ordinary vocal organs remarked:
 T am not so sure it's always-rm not sure that I know. I've just seen a nightly charming little girl who thinks a whole heap of you. Mind, I'm jealous"
 And, to prove it. she admitted to the liquid warmth of her eyes. for fleet ing instant a glitter hard, cold as steel.
 Who Is the angel child?" Elliott asked, contracting his brows specula- lively.
 "As if you didn't know!" she retorted derisively. She is the dearest. cutest little thing! Great baby. blue eyes nor the baby-blue color, silly. but baby and blue!--and the demurest mouth! and dimples! dimples! Shan't we frumpy old college widows be furious? And to hear her speak of my Charles imagine my conflicting emotions!"

 Yes, I know now" he admitted. "You mean Alice Dorgan. Isn't she nice? I'm so glad you like her.
 Why don't you say what you think about herr" she inquired causticalIy. Shes your home girl-the one that really counts; every man in the univer- sity probably has one. Poor. misguided summer girls!' she ended with a sigh archly pathetic.
 Poor summer girls!" he echoed: he liked the phrase for being non-commit- tal harmless.
 Anyhow, she's a formidable rival even if she has baby-blue eyes" she went on in the cankering dulcct only women can use to full effect. "Morgia Collier and I--she went with me-are fascinated"

Beau" Elliott. christened Charles Edward was just recovering from a panic that had well nigh caused flight Tt was carrying a balance over from last summer that made the trouble he had told himself in excusing what had seemed a blunder. But now how lucky now that he had decided to play the hand out! And he was playing it well; he was managing the three who helped him make up the game as easi- 1y and satisfactorily as he had hitherto manipulated one. "Vir Triumphans." a phrase from the Latin salutatory he was to deliver at graduation, drifted Into his mind. and he translated. softly to himself. Man. Triumphant Man; Glorious. Conduering Man.
 So, strolling along University Ave nue to Gownsmen's Hall. he was per- haps excusable for walking like pouter pigeon tiIting his mortar board rakishly, and otherwise assum- ing the ultra self important mien vulgarly called "chestiness.' Yes, he was doing y-well-I-thank-you, he assured himself: and he ceased to step. like mere human clay, and began to kick forward, his legs going out stiff and straight. his heels first coming to earth--a procedure rather odd than rapid.

See you at the german tonight-good- bye!"
 "Yes, thanks. Of course! Good-byeT
 He turned, his smile vanishing, and started up the avenue. His ambulation was no longer the kind of iocomotfon the black-eyed girl had dubbed good morn ing" he no longer good-morned in vain chestiness but strodc with an energy lent by disgust and anger.
 That Mamie Black Is a deyil! he muttered, not altogether unadmiringiy. Turning his head to apostrophize her in similar language, he had glimpse or her face, laughing, taunting, victori- ous. The rout was complete, and he fled, blushing and furious.
 This unfortunate melee. he reflected. not not altogether his fault. It was that deplorable balance brought for ward"--that same Mamie Black, with whom he had been unwilling to break off diplomatic relations during the winter. which is the usual and, per- haps, the wise denoument of the fan ciful tangle that Cupid weaves in the good old Summer Time. But her let ters had been so bright. clever like herself, that he had not had the heart to give up. Besides. they had been of such fattering frequency--he put that ungallant thought aside. Then, after wailing all winter of her hopelessness of seeing College Town again. she had come back.
 And in the meantime. as it is said in the comic supplement. in the mean time enter Morgia Caller, lighting the dull night of early Spring in College Town like the eccentric. cratic. but

 So engrossed was he in this form or self adulation that he failed to notice the very near presence of one of the players-or puppets he might at that moment have called them--in the Game until she aughed-irritatingly clear musical, laughter that elicited quizzi- cal attention from Persons and Per sonages on the Avenue.
 "Of all the"-she paused effectively. What in the world arc you doing? is 1t an election bet?"
 Before he could gather his scattered wits his gaze travelled all over the trim little figure before him, her pretty face framed by the lace parasol she had let fall to her shoulders. one dainty hand upraised in pretty bewilderment. This perclous bit of femininity-one of his pet" names for her--with the dark eyes and the laughing lips was one of the few things that ever put him out of adjustment
 Good mornig," he blurted at last.
 "Oh, you are good morning. are you?' she asked mockingly. Well, it Is certainly a very. very interesting pro- ceeding. never saw any one do it

 Then Beau drove home very slowly SO that the pumping might not hurt poor Names head. and he might In ease and comfort complete his lectures on The Art Architectural and The Art Decorative, with interesting side-lights on Tho Art Amative, the which seri- ous topics can be neither bubbled nor babbled.

She asked no questions, made no l trouble, But now-with that flend be- | hind her!

Lese-sEajeste In Germany.

GHttductpnlA hecoF0.
 Recent statistics of prosecutions for lese-mateste fin Germany are not access sible, but from 1898 to 1895 the number of peersons sentenced for too great fi- cense of speech was 4,407, an average of 551 persons yearly for seven years. The provisions of the German code are elastic and apply to almost any words spoken which may be offensive to the Emperor. The law Is plainly absurd in some of its features. Thus between 1890 and 1895 seven children under 15 were condemned for iese-majeste. for- ty-eight between the ages of i5 and IS and lS3 from IS to 21. That is to say. about 5 per cent. of those punished for lese- -rnajeste were minors. Treason in the United States consists in the overt act rather than in the spoken word It was saying of Jefferson's that the lib- erty of speaking and writing guards our other liberties.
