Ganlook's population lined the chief
thoroughfare. awaiting the departure
of the princess, although the hour was
early. Beverly peered forth curiously
as the coach moved on. The quaint.
half oriental costumes of the towns
people, the odd little children, the
bright colors, the perfect love and rev.
erenee that shone in the faces of the
multitude impressed her deeply. She
was never to forget that picturesque
morning.
Baron Dangloss rode beside the coach
until it passed through the southern
gates and into the countryside. A
company of cavalrymen acted as es-
cort. The bright red trousers and top
boots, with the deep blue jackets, re-
minded Beverly more than ever Of the
operate figures she had seen so often
at home. There was fierce, dark cast
to the faces of these soldiers, however,
that removed any suggestion Of play.
The girl was In ecstasies. Everything
about her appealed to the romantic
side of her nature. Everything seemed

The princess smiled lovingly upon the
throngs that lined the street. There
was no man among them who would
not have laid down his life for the
| gracious ruler.
''Oh, love your soldiers" cried Bev.
erly warmly.
Poor fellows, who knows how soon
they may be called upon to face death
In the Dawsbergen hills?'' said Yetive,
a shadow crossing her face.
Dangloss was to remain in Ganlook
for several days, on guard against
manifestations by the Axphainians. A
corps of spies and scouts was working
with him, and couriers were ready tc
ride at a moments notice to the castle
in Edelwciss. Before they parted Bev-
erly extracted renewal of his promise
TO take good care Of Baldos. She sent
message to the injured man, deplor-
ing the fact that she was compelled to
leave Ganlook without seeing him as
she had promised. Ii was her intention
10 have him come 10 Edelweiss as soon
as he was in condition TO be removed.
Baron Dangloss smiled mysteriously,
but he had no comment to make. He
had received bis orders and was obey
ing them to the letter.
+ II wonder if Grenfall has heard of
my harum-scarum trip to St Peters
burg" reflected Yetive, making herself
comfortable in the coach after the gates
and the multitudes were far behind.
I'll go you box Of chocolate creams
that we meet him before we get to
Edelweiss,r ventured Beverly.
Agreed" said the princess.
Don't say agreed dear. Done is
the word" corrected the American girl
airily.
Beverly won. Grenfall Lorry and a
small company of horsemen rode up in
furious haste long before the sun was
in mid-sky An attempt to depict the
scene between him and his venture
some wife would be a hopeless task.
The way in which his face cleared it
self of distress and worry was a joy in
itself To use his own words, be /
breathed freely for the first time in
hours. The American took the place
of the officer who rode beside the coach,
and the trio kept up an eager, interest
ing conversation during the next two |
hours.
1t was O warm, sleepy day, but all |
signs of Growsiness disappeared with |
the advent of Lorry. He had reached |
Edelweiss late the night before, after
three days ride from the conference
in Dawsbergen At first he encoun- |
tered trouble in trying TO discover what
had become of the princess. Those at
the castle were aware Of the fact that /
she had reached Ganlook safely and
sought to put him of with subterfuges.
He stormed to such a degree, however,
that their object failed. The result was
that he was of for Ganlook with the
earliest light of day.
Regarding the conference with Prince
Gabriefs representatives, he had but
little TO say. The escaped murderer
refused to surrender and was
to all appearances quite firmly estab-
iished in power once more Lorry's
only hope was that the reversal Of feel

LIKE WINE, IT GROWS BETTER
WITH AGE.

Like good wine, the Bnltmcre Sun,
which has Just entered upon the
seventeen year Of it's existence,
grows better with age. 1t has not
only kept pace with the wonderful
strides made in the journalistic field,
but has built up IA reputation for
accuracy, candor and honesty of pnr-
pose, which is the pride Of its friends
and the envy of its enemies.
In referring TO its long and hon
orable career the Sun says: mo
great public enterprise has ever been
started in this city in the last 80
years TINT did not have the aid and
cooperation Of the Sun. No meas.
IRE which would work Il great public
injury has ever been suggested that

NEW YEARS CALLS.
A New Drink to Replace the oId-Time
"Apple-Jack."

Twenty-Five years ago the custom OF
making New Years calls was a de-
lightful one for all concerned, until
some of the boys got more "egg-nog
or apple jack" than they could sue
cessfully carry.
Then the ladies tried to be charit-
able and the gentlemen tried to be
as chivalrous as ever and stand up at
the same time.
If anyone thinks there has not been
considerable improvement made in the
last quarter of century in the use
Of alcoohlic beverages, let him stop
to consider, among other things, the
fact that the old custom of New Year s
calls and the genteel tippling is nearly
obsolete.
The custom of calling on ones
friends, however, at the beginning of
the new year, is a good habit, and an
other good habit to start at that time
is the use of well-made Postum in
stead of coffee or spirits.
