lier in the evening aprOpos Of the great
gathering at the French embassy, and
the mot had gone the round of the
room.
In society little mot will go a long
way. NJ. lie Baron de Chauxville was,
moreover, a manufa cturer Of mots BY
calling he was attache to the French
embassy in London; by profession he
was an epigrammatist-that is to say,
went off if one touched him conversa-
tionally, and, like others among us, he
frequently missed fire.
Of course he had but little real re-
spect for the truth: II one wishes to
be epigrammatic one must relinquish
the hope of being either agreeable or
veracious. NJ. de Chauxville did not
really intend to convey the idea that
any Of the persons assembled in the
great guest chambers Of the French
embassy that evening were anything
but what they seemed.
Now, it is not our business to go
round the rooms Of the French embas-
sy picking holes in the earthly robes
of society's elect. Suffice it to say that
every one was there - all those who
have had greatness thrust upon them
and the others, those who thrust them
selves upon the great-those, in a word,
who reach such as are above them by
doing that which should be beneath
them.
There were music and the refresh
ments. It was, in fact. a reception.
Gauls most lively sons bowed before
AlbiOn's fairest daughters and dis
played that fund Of verve and esprit
which they rightly pride themselves
upon possessing and which, of course,
leave mere Englishmen so far behind
in the paths of love and chivalry.
It is, however, high time to explain
the reason Of our own presence, of our
own reception by Frances courteous
representative. We are here to meet
Mrs Sydney scarborough and, more
over, to confine our attention to the
persons more Or less implicated in the
present history.
Mrs. Sydney scarborough was I'M
doubtedly the belle of the evening. She
had only to look in one of the many
mirrors to make sure Of that fact And
If she wanted further assurance hun
dred men in the room would have been
ready to swear to it. This lady had re-
Gently dawned on London society-a
young widow. She rarely mentioned
her husband; it was understood to be a
painful subject. He had been attach
ed to several embassies, she said; he
had brilliant career before him. and
suddenly he had died abroad And
then she gave little sigh and bright
smile, which, being interpreted, meant
"Let us change the subject

Even while she spoke the expression
Of her face changed to one Of gay de-

for her, and took no notice of the
Frenchman's apologies.
"Who is that?" asked the young man.
II see him everywhere lately"
~ mere English gentleman, Mr.. Paul
Howard Alexis replied the lady.
The Frenchman raised his eyebrows.
He knew better. This was no plain
English gentleman. He bowed and
took his leave. NJ. de Chauxville of
the French embassy was watching ev-
cry movement, every change of ex-
preston, from across the room.
In evening dress the man whom we
last saw on the platform of the rail-
way station at Tver did not look so
Enthusiastically English. It was more
evident that lie had inherited certain,
characteristics from his Russian moth4
er, notably his great height, a physical
advantage enjoyed by many aristocrat-
ic Russian families. His hair was fair
and inclined to curl, and there the for
eign suggestion suddenly ceased. His
face had the quiet concentration, the
unobtrusive self absorption, which one
sees more strongly marked in English
faces than in any others. His manner
OF moving through the we'll dressed
crowd somewhat belied the tan of his
skin. Here was an out of door, ath-
letic youth who knew how to move
in drawing rooms, a big man who did
not look much too large for his sur
roundings. It was evident that he
Gid not know many people and also
that he was Indifferent to his loss. He
had come to see Mrs. Sydney Bambor-
ough, and that lady was not insensible
to the fact
To prove this she diverged from the
path of veracity, as is the way of some
women

answered simply. The inference would
have been enough for some women, but
not for Eta Sydney scarborough.
"Well, is that reason why yor

force yourself to bow and smirk to a
number Of white handed little dandies
whom you despise?" I
'The best reason" he answered
quietly, with an honesty which some
how touched her as nothing else had
touched this beautiful woman since
she had become aware of her beauty.
Then you think it worth the bow
Ing and the smirking?" she asked,
looking past him with innocent eyes,
