MY mother will be very glad to see

Gays" she answered, and named a
house in the most fashionable quarter.
A little later Sir Percy found himself
standing among a fringe Of men around
the ball room door. The lancers quad
rifle was being danced, and once more
he noticed the black-haired girl dan
cling, and this time he was surprised to
see that her partner was Senator
March. The Senator went through the
SQUARE dance with the gravity and
exactness with which he had learned
his steps at a dancing school forty
years before. His partner was no less
graceful In the square dance than in
the waltz, and was more unrestrained
making pretty little steps and curtsies
and movements OF quick grace, which
made her dancing the most exquisite
thing of the kind Sir Percy had ever
seen. When the quadriIle was over he
suddenly found her standing almost in
front of him, laughing n clinging to
Senato MARGINS arm. Her profile, clear
cut as a cameo, but not in the least
classic, was directly in front of Sir
Percy, and he was forced to admire her
sparkling face. She had not much regu-
lar beauty. but her white skin, contrast
ed with her black hair, dark eyes and
long, black lashes, was charming. Her
mouth was made for laughter and on
the left side was an elusive dimple.
Sir Percy hated dimpled women, but
he found himself looking at the girls
mobile face and watching the appear
ance n disappearance of this little
hiding place OF laughter upon her
cheek. And, wonderful to say, she did
not screech, but spoke in a voice that
was singularly clear m musical. Some
experience OF the American methods Of
introducing right and left had been
Sir Percy's, and he was not surprised
when Senator March laid b hand upon
his arm n whispered:
May 1 introduce you to this young
friend of mine, Miss Lucy Armytage, of
B~aYdstown, Kentucky? YOU have heard
of Kentucky horses, haven't your

recollection of %Iroquois and the Derby.
in his mind.
VERY we'll, the Kentucky horses are
not a patch on the Kentucky women
I'm that case" replied Sir Percy,
laughingly, s'n1ay I beg you to introduce
me to Mics Arfnytage at once?"
Senator March introduced him ii due
form, and Miss Arfnytage, holding out
u slim hand. cast down her eyes de-
Inurely and murmured that she was
glad to meet him.
"Sir Percy has only lately arrived In
America" explained Senator March.
And has probably never heard OF
Kentucky responded Miss

ana fixing them full upon Sir Percy.

town, the dimple in her cheek mean
while coming and going.
Sir Percy listened, surprised and
amused. The affected dryness of what
Miss Armytage was telling was fllun-
mated with little turns and sparkles of
wit; and from Bardstown she proceed
ed to give, with the utmost seriousness,
a brief synopsis Of the history and re-
sources of the State of Kentucky. Sir
Percy grew more and more amused. He
perceived that she was diverting her
self with him, a thing no woman had
ever done before. He had heard OF
American humor, out he did not know
that the women possessed 1t. He felt
sure that Miss Armytage was a real
humorist. and also a sentimentalist
when she said. presently:
II was at a great dinner in New
York last week and as we were sitting
at the table I heard an organ grinder
in the street outside playing My Old
Kentucky Home and while I was lis
tening and thinking about Bardstown
two tears dropped into my soup. I
never was so ashamed in my life"
She looked into Sir Percy's eyes with
an appealing air, like a child who knows
not whether it is to be rebulSed or
praised. Her whole air and manner
radiated interest in Sir Percy as she
asked softly:
what do you suppose the other peo-
Pile at the table thought of me7''
Sir Percy answered her as any other
man would:
"That you had a very tender heart"
He was charmed with her simplicity.
combined with her natural grace. A
moment after a young naval officer
came up and claimed Miss Armytoge
for q dance. She turned to go with
him, but looked backward at Sir
Percy with a glance such as Clytie
might have given the departing o
of the unerring bow. Her glance. quick
yet soft, was much the prettiest thing
OF the sort Sir Percy a ever cen
He perceived that Miss Armytage was
the typical American girl. However,
he was much disguised. as his eyes
followed Lucy, to see her glancing up
into the eyes Of Stanley. the young
naval man, with precisely the same
look Of appealing confidence with which
she had bewitched himself two min
utes before. He hated a coquette with
an Englishman's hatred of being trified
with by a woman, and immediately
classified Miss ATmytage, of Bards-
town, Kentucky, as a very finished
~coquette, and concluded not to trouble
himself further about her.
The ball went on merrily, and it was
1 O'clock in the morning before the car
riages begin to drive away from the
porte-cochere. Among the last guests
to go was Lucy Armytage. Sir Percy
was standing in the hall when Lucy
tripped down the stairs n joined an
elderly, ~gray-bearded mar standing
near SIM Percy. A long white evening
cloak enveloped her slender figure. and
a white gauze scarf was upon her soft
black hair. She joined the ray
