observe the Countess.
Kathern Viyella Countess of Hobenstein, was
woman of perhaps sixandthirty years of age,
but she was magically preserved, and pos
sessed of such excessive physical vitality that she
seemed at the utmost twenty-nne.
"Ah,H she murmured softly, her vowels mark
ed with a quaint and foreign roundness of enun-
citation, Il have wished to meet you, Captain
Lethby."
The Captain deposited himself at her side with.
out hesitation, and Miss Elliott found herself
alone with Cressingham. Lord Francis contrived
to make the conversation for some moments gem
eral. After while, however. it languished in
spite of him, and he fell to watching the Count
ess, while Miss Elliott busted herself with tea.
"You have not called since your return-until
today" she murmured in low voice presently
He started, and changed color "No-I have
been very busy"
"Indeed Sugar, Countess"
"If you please, my dear-may / call you INV

much dear; il will be great pleasure to me-"
"May 1 go tool" asked Captain Lethby sud
denly
"Why not" said Miss Elliott; "you know YOU
are always welcome there, Jack"
"And you" said the Countess, turning laneuid-
ly to Cressngham, "you will come with usY

"Oh, how stern you look Really, I always

"Francine"

"Tel that to the Marines!" cried the Captain
rudey, getting noisily to his feet as he spoke.
But at that moment servant tapped at the door
and entered, with the announcement: The
Countess of Hobensten"
81 forgot to tell you she was coming; please
stay, Jack" said Miss Elliott.
"And Lord Francis Cressngham," continued
the footman pompously.
On mention of the second name, Miss Elliott
turned quite pale and rose abruptly. "How do
you do?" she said, holding out her hand to the
lady who pausing on the threshold. Then:
so glad you came allow me to present-The
Countess of Hobenstein-Captan Lethby. How
dye do, Lord Francis! l fancy you gentlemen

Lord Francis Cressingham's handsome face was
not seen to advantage just then; he looked lit

"It is well. You, Count Won Oeltien, will set

Chief Of Police, and say to him these words:

officer will know how to prevent the Nihsts
from undermining the railway over which the
President must presently pass on his visit to
Mentone"
The Count saluted "And after, sir?"
"Return to London with all speed, for I shall
soon have further need of you You will hear

Mr.. Perigord rose to his feet and moved slow

pointed gravely to curtains opposite. BE

Next instant he had disappeared, and the three
gentlemen presently obeyed his latest admoniton.
They found in the indicated room rich repast
awaiting them Each swallowed hastily glass of
spirit, and forthwith departed in the wake of
the gentleman who had first admitted them to

girl of character. She managed unaided her
fathers household, her mother having died in
her infancy.
Captain Lethby had been in love with his cous,
in for quite six years, but after two refusals of
his suit he had gradually settled into the assured
position of her chum and closest friend.
His open face at present wore expression of
embarrassment, for Miss Elliott was attentvely
regarding him, awaiting his reply to a question
he appeared to find difficulty in answering.
"Iord Francis Cressingham is friend of yours
surely?' she repeated. "He used TO be, know"
added the girl.
Cantain Lethby fenced with her. ooh, ah
we'll of course, he used to be one OF us you
"But YOU do. not like him? Out with it, Jack;
Won have no secrets from me, have you" with
an arch smile.
CAPTAIN Lethby idgeted in his chair. "Well

It's question OF respect. You see, he got badly

The girl gave a queer little smile. "You might

marked: 'I was there myself last night"
"Where?"
"At the Countess of Hobenstein's."
"The deuce! Beg pardon, Francine Did you

0I saw him at a distance. He was looking far

Lethby regarded the girl with jealous eyes.
"You seem to take lot of interest in him, he
