"Ah, don't" and quick fingers snatch
ed the violet from his. Before he could
turn Marjorie had gone again.
At length the ball drew to a close
Senator Langhorne had contrived to
spend much of the time with Madame
Won Breunen. He had not found this a
disag agreeable or difficult task. Captain
Rubinon had been surprised and
piqued by the manner with which Mar
jorie had received him when he came
to ask her for sixth dance. He had
felt that he had made an impression.
This tickled his vanity, for she was un-
doubtedly one of the bellies of the ball.
Besides he thought that after all 1t
might be better to marry rich Ameri-
can girl than to go back to Russia
even upon the upper wave. Billy Hale
had danced again with Marjorie. but had
wisely abstained from any reference to
the conservatory
Marie Won Breunen was one Of the LIST
TO leave the embassy, for she was fav-
orite with her hostess. Her face looked
drawn, almost haggard. She murmured
to herself, .'I cannot do it. I cannot do
it."
just as she reached the sidewalk man
brushed by her rudely. He was non
descript character. AS he passed he
thrust a note into her hand. She paus-
ed for a moment under a street light
to see what she had received, before
getting into her carriage. The envel-
ope bore Maltese Cross. She tore ii

Maltese Crosses on the principal streets

be Paul, who will lead you to the
house. We have scored the first trick.
AS she folded the note and thrust Il
into her gown for safe keeping, there
came the sound of a church clock strik

distance the shrilI cry Of a newsboy:

That the Senator was interested in this
beautiful woman. part of whose history
re knew from Hale. there could be no
doubt He had met many lov.ly W.
men in his career and in many brilliant
coGrts of Europe But ne had never be-
fore met one who appealed to him so
strongly on every count IS did Marie
Won Br4unen. Why had he mover mar
ried? Hs could scarcely have answered
this question himself. In his college
Gays he had been desperately in love
he thought-but marriage or even an
engagement had been out of the question
because OF his lack CT fortune. Though
he had retained his affection for his
first love many years, she mad married
another MAJ. After he had made a
start in the world he mad been too busy
to get married. Finally ne had lost al
inclination 20 even think OF marriage.
But since the day he had met Marie
Won Breunen he had undergone change
and there came q doubt into his mind
whether or not he was q fool to persist
In his bacnelorh )od. He was not sure.
Billy watched the dancers until the
music stopped. He saw Marjorie sur
rounded by an eager group of men and
knew that she would be amply provided
with partners. Then he Joined n girl
whom he had known when he was in
Washington before.
1t was not until two hours after this
that Hale saw Marjorie again 10 speak
to. She was standing talking and laugh
ing with Rubinoff. The eyes OF the Rus
sian were fastened upon her like those
of hawk upon its prey. Because he
knew this mans reputation for cruelty

been military governor and for another

"If you wish it." answered Marjorie,

There fell another silence during which

which held her violets in place.

Billy looked at her in duh surprise
She dropped the violets in the SCAT be-

gone. He did rot make any move to-
ward the violets which he had zone to
great pains to send Marjorie that even
ing He sat and pondered over the pc
culiarities of women and of debutautes
in particular. Quite suddenly he real
lied that he cared a great deal for the
Senator's niece. In his thirty years of
life--at least in the last ten of them
he had cared for various women in diff
fercnt degrees he had thought he was
in love with one or two, but he had
never had quite the same feeling toward
any Of them that he had toward Mar
jor!e. He had known her not a whole
week, yet he felt as II he had known her
from the beginning of things.
Reaching out his hand he drew the
discarded violets TO him, and began
pulling off their fragrant heads one by
one. He did it slowly and deliberately,
and. as he dropped each blue flower
upon the floor, he crushed 1t with his
foot. The sound of waltz music came
to him family through the palms. He
did not hear a light football nor the
swish OF woman's gown behind him.
At last there was only one violet left
1t was Il large violet and had stood like
a patriarch among the rest. Uncon-
sciously Billy had spared 1t till the
last. Even as he was about to pluck off
its head soft voice behind him said:
