The poor, distracted father saw the
danger of such a scheme, but it seemed
the only way, and there was no time to
think, and as Tad said, they would be
sure to think there was a trick unless
he stayed in the room when his father
left it,
And now they must hurry, for the
doors were already being broken in up
stairs.
Smilingly the count received the Rus
sian troopers and their captain and told
them that he surrendered, not only be-
cause he must, but because he was long
since tired of the war and now wished
to obtain the cars forgiveness If pos
sible.
The officer in charge was. naturally,
inclined to doubt the sincerity of this
sudden change of front and had almost
mind to put his prisoner in irons at
once
But" continued the count, you and
your men here are fatigned with your
long journey in search of me, and you
must also be hungry. So before we set
out for st. Petersburg let me offer you
such hospitality as my house affords. 1
shall go and order dinner at once"
Mo- said the captain, his suspicious
again aroused; 'it would be better to
have the cook come here and take your
orders"
Seeing now the wisdom of Tad's plan
and the utter hopelessness of escape for
either of them by any other means. he
sent for the cook and also for Tad.
Presently they appeared, and the count
gave orders for a fine dinner to be pre-
pared as soon as possible. Then he in
trodueed the boy to Captain Tzumanoff
saying that he hoped there would be no
objection to his taking the child to st.
Petersburg with him. While waiting
for dinner to be announced he showed
his unwelcome guests the castle-tbe
aquariums, the Conservatives, the great
labrary full of rare old books. etc
trying in every way to seem friendly
and to keep them interested till the
feast should be ready.
Finally. to the great relief of his
tense nerves, it was announced OF
course, much wine had been ordered
and Captain Tzumanoff and his soldiers
drank freely, praising both the excel
lent dinner and the more excellent
wines.

Norman French had mingled with
Anglo Saxon in the common patois of
the people. though pure French and
Latin remained the language of the
court and of scholarship.
The language in which Chaucer wrote
is now so antiquated that 1t is not
easy for the ordinary person to read
it. His Canterbury Tales are pleas
ant and cheerful. for he was an emil
nently sane man; but what he wrote
has been often rewritten since his
time, till we are quite familiar with
most of his stories and ideas through
other channels.
Spenser, whose best work is the
'Faerie Queen" though he wrote so
near the time of Shakespeare. seems de-
cidedly more antiquated; yet, as COM
pared with Chaucer, he is easy reading.
The ~Faerie Queen" is one long series
of beautiful images. mingling of fair
women, brave knights and ugly drag
