CHAPTER XII.
What Joan Left Behind.

After the departure of his bride, the
Prince of CORTLAND stood on the steps
Of the Minister, dazed and foundered
by the shame which had so suddenly
befallen him.
bid the gates be shut, prince!"
The whisper came over his shoulder
from a young man who had been
standing all the time twisting his mus
tache. Bid your horsemen bit and
bride. The plain 10 fair before you.
1t is a long way to Kernsberg. Let no
wench in the world put this shame
upon a reigning prince of CORTLAND
upon his wedding day!"
Thus Ivan of Muscovy, attired in
silk. banded of black and gold, oun
seled the disdained Prince Louis, who
stood pushing upward with his two
fingers the point of his thin greyish
beard and gnawing its struggling ends
between his teeth.
The Prince Louis appeared to be
moved by Prince Wasp's words. He
turned about to the nearest kniGht-in-
waiting.
Let us to horse-eyery man OF u.s."
he said. bid that the steeds be
brought instantly"
The banded Wasp had further coun-
sells to give.
Give out that you go to meet the
princess at a rendezvous. For a
pleasantly between yourselves, you
have resolved to spend the honeymoon
at a distant hunting-lodge. Quick!
Not half a dozen of all the company
caught the true import of her words.
You will tame her yet"
At the command of the prince the
trumpets rang out again the Boot
~and.saddle!' from the steps of the
cathedral. At the sound, the grooms,
who were here and there in the press,
hasted to find and caparison the
h)rses of their lords. Meanwhile, on
tie wide steps the Prince Louis
fretted, dinting his nails restlessly in
to his palms and shaking with anger
and disappointment till his deep
sleeves shook like scarlet flames in a
~veneering wind.

On the steps Of the Minister, ter
they had descended more than half
way, the new Princess of CORTLAND
turned upon her lord. Her hand
slipped from his arm, which hung a
moment crooked and empty before it
dropped to his side. His mouth was
a little open with surprise.
Now, my lord" said the Princess
Joan, loud and clear. q have married

The horse upon which she had come
to the Minister stood waiting. There
was the Sparhawk ready to help her
into the saddle.
Ere one of the wedding guests could
move to prevent her, before the Prince
Of CORTLAND could cry an or

CHAPTER "
At the Hiqh Altar.


When Maurice o Lynar reached
the open air he stood for full five min
utes, light-headed in the rush of the
city traffic. The loud reiteration OF
rejoicing sounded heartless n even
impertinent in his ear. The world had
changed for the young Dane since the
Count Won Loen had been summoned
by the Princess Margaret.
He cast his mind back over the IN
terview, but failed to disentangle any
thing definite. 1t was a maze OF I'M
%pressions out of which grew the GER
tainty that safely to play his dlfhcult
part he must obtain the whole conn
dence of the Duchess Joan.
The young Dane found the duchess
walking up and down on the noble
promenade which faced the river to
the west.
"Ah, Won Lynar, my brave Dane

cried. 81 declare ! was longing for
some one to talk to-" A consciousness
of need which had only just come
upon her.

that she must mistake me for some
other person. She spoke things most
strange to me-
The eyes of the duchess danced. A
load seemed suddenly lifted off her
mind.
Was she very angry?" she queried.

ing in recognition of her smile.
What said the princess?
First she would have it that my
name and style was that of the Count
Won Loen. Then she ~reproached me
fiercely because | denied it. After
that she spoke of certain foreign GUS
toms she had been taught, recalled
walks through corridors and rose gar
dens with me, till my head swan

Joan of the Sword Hand laughed a
merry peal.

Dane, sententiously.

The youth blushed a deep crimson
with flooded his neck and dyed his
dusky skin.

his bowed head with her hand, your
troubles will not be to seek"

not trouble. | have promised to serve
the princess in all things. She has
been kind to me. She has forgiven
me all"
"So-you are to change your allegl-
ance," said the duchess. But how
did you manage to appease her? That
is no mean feat. She is an imperious
lady and quick of understanding"
Then Maurice o Lynar told his
mistress of his most allowable false
hoods, and begged her not to unde-
ceive the princess, for that he would

AN ANCIENT

A specimen of the extinct bird with
teeth, called the h~esperornis, was not
long ago discovered in Kansas by
agents of the Smithsonian Institu-
ton. The specimen was so perfectly
preserved that it's feathers were still
in place. These feathers, assert the
Smithsonian authorities, tire the typ
ical plumage of an ostrich.
Remains of the hesperorns were
first discovered by Professor Marsh
about 40 years ago, and he was led
to assert that the bird was probably
a ca%rnivorous, swimming ostrich.
The Kansas discovery confirms this
original opinion, while showing what
wonderful changes have occurred in
the living forms inhabiting North
America.
