Meanwhile. Sir Percy was having
what might be called "a roaring time
at the Embassy with Lord Baudesert,
his Aunt Susan and Jane, Sarah and
isabella. Sometimes even sheep will
make a feint of butting. and. follow
ing Lord Baudesert's tigerish assault,
the yerekers butted and prodded as
v~iciously as they knew how. Sir Percy
had chosen tea-time as the hour to
break the news to his family. He first
had a private interview with Lord
Baudesert in his library. The Ambas-
sador happened to have a real and
not a diplomatic touch of govt, and
was correspondingly savage. When
Sir Percy coolly, and without any PIE
amble, announced that he was engaged
to Miss Arnlytage, and that the we'd
ding would take place at Bards, own,
Kentucky, in the middle of June, Lord
Baudesert almost jumped from his
chair with wrath and surprise, n then
fell back again overwhelmed with dis
gust.
"You swore to me- he beloved, that
you would never marry an American"
Sir Percy smiled AND stroked his
mustache.
"sWell," he said. II am of that opinion
still. This Is the only American l
would ever marry under any possible
circumstances, and I don't propose TO
10 1t but once"
"You know the disadvantages of it."
cried Lord Baudesert, humping the
able: "her money will be tied up as
light as wax; you will have a tail Of
relations following you all over Eu-
D and the whole thing is the most
damnable mess l have ever heard of
in my life"
call it anything you please replied
Sir Percy. still smiling, only be care
full how you mention Miss Armytage.
AS for her money being tied Up, she
has very little, so It really doesn't matt
ter"
This was like throwing a bushel Of
dynamite into n burning house. Lord
Baudesert forgot his govt and, getting
up from his chair, strobe up and down
the room, dragging his equity leg after
him, and muttering savagely to him
self. with an occasional blast against
American marriages. Presently Sir
Percy rose and went into the drawing
room, followed by Lord Baudesert.
There sat Mrs. vereker and the three
girls, and while Mrs. vereker was hand
ing Sir Percy his tea, he remarked
casually to her:
T, Aunt Susan, / hope very much that
you and the girls will. as soon as you
conveniently can.c call upoy, Miss Army

might have some little ground upon

Mrs. Vernon had encountered this mood

INJURED Mrs. yereker despairingly. when
she found her voice. "A MOST incredi-
BILE thing. / think you must be joking,
and that you are really engaged to Miss
Chantrey."
Il assure you hat I am not" replied
Sir Percy. GIVE me another cup of
tea, please. Isabella"
Mamma said Isabella. without
Iaying the slightest attention to Sir
Percy's requests he is simply teas
ing us. He certainly is engaged TO Miss
Chantrey. l have heard it suggested
a dozen times in the last month"
But I am not" said Sir Percy, help
ing himself to tea, which no one else
was sufficiently composed TO give him.
Mrs. Vereker shook her head nope
lessly. Il am sure it is Miss Chantrey."
This view of the matter acted upon
Lord baudesert's smouldering rage like
a ton in front of a rushing railway
train, which is at once derailed and
helpless. Lord Baudesert exploded into
a short laugh.
NO such luck, he said; Miss Chant
rey has a fortune; Miss Armytage has
not"
DIT Iefcy, ldsliS IHlSileu HIS ttd, put
down his cup and rose.
Il shall be very much obliged to you,
Aunt Susan, if you will do as 1 ask.
Lord Baudesert. of course, will call
tomorrow"
Lord Baudesert growled something
between his clene he'd tech, which no.
body could make out, and Sarah cried:
"Oh, Cousin Percy, how many times
have I heard you say that o would
never marry an American" and Jane
chimed in, mo one would have mind
ed in the least if it had been Eleanor
Chantrey."
Perhaps remarked Sir Percy to
Jane, meanwhile looking Lord Baude-
sert full in the eye. you may yet ave
the pleasure of being allied with the
Chantreys. Common report has 1t that
Lord Baudesert and Mrs. Chantrey arc
to be married shortly. Good after
noon" And leaving this bomb be-
hind hem, he escaped into the street.
Only to one other did he feel tho
necessity OF imparting the news him
self. This was to General Talbot, and
through him to Alicia Vernon. He
walked to their hotel and was shown
to their sitting-room to await their
return from a drive. He went to the
window and looked down on the street
EMPOWERED with trees, and with side
walks full of gaily dressed people. and
smart carriages dashing to n fro In
the sunny spring afternoon. He had
heard hat day, as had everybody else,
the announcement of Alicia Vernon's
engagement. and it brought him nc sur

and Genera Talbot grasped Sir Percy's

bottom OF an honest and generous
heart.

Perhaps it is not the young mans

that he will not make their daughter
