She said no more but leaned
forward, her face winter than it's
wont. He frowned, but it was
the effect of temporary perplex-
ity. Gradually the meaning of
her simple, though significant
remark filtered through his
brain.

he almost whispered. You don't

to the massive doors. A watch
man in the garden salutes him.
The tall figure dips his umbrella
in response, Enthusiastically la

to his forelock at the top of the
steps and throws open the doors
without question. This visitor is
expected, it is plain to be seen
La circumstance which may or
Imay not explain the nervousness
that attends him as he crosses
the broad hall toward the library.
| Tullis had long since ceased to
be welcome visitor in the home
of the duke of Perse. The men
were openly unfriendly to each
other. The duke resented the
cool interference Of the sandy
haired American; on the other
hand, Tullis made no effort to
conceal his dislike. if not dis
trust, of the older man. He
argued - with unofficial and
somewhat personal authority
that a man who could trade his
only child for selfish ends
might also be impelled to sacri-
flee his country's interests with
out cramping his conscience.
The countess was alone in the
long, warm-tinted library. She
stood before the dying embers in
the huge old fireplace, her foot
upon one of the great iron dogs.
Her smiling face was turned to-
ward the door as he entered.
/ ut is good of you to come"
she said. as they shook hands
warmly. do you know, it is
almost a year since you last came
to this house?"
"It would be a century. ut

"Or that it has been a minute
instead of year." she supple
mented. His quick, involuntary
glance about him did not escape
her understanding. "The duke
has gone to Ganlook to play
bridge with friends" she said at
once. HE will not return till
llate. have Just telephonedL
to make sure" Her smile did
more than to reassure him.
"Of course, you will under

to come here, Countess. Your

matters, and I'm not quite fool"
Tullis squinted at the fire.

CHAPTER vi.
Ingomede the Beautiful.

SI1Af EN- VI.
Ingomede the Beautiful.
A light, chilling drizzle had
been falling all evening, patter-
ing softly upon the roof of leaves
that covered the sidewalks along
Castle Avenue. glistening on the
lamp-lit pavements and blowing
ever SO gently in the faces OF
those who walked in the dripping
shades. Far back from the SHIN
mering sidewalks, surrounded by
the blacklist of shadows, and APP
preached by hedge-bordered
paths and driveways, stood the
mansions occupied by the nobility
of this gay little kingdom. A
score or more of ancient palaces,
in which the spirit of modern ag-
gression had wrought interior
changes but had left the exteri-
ors untouched, formed this aristo-
cratic line of homes. Here were
houses that had been built in the
fifteenth century-great, square,
solemn-looking structures, grown
gray and green with age.
There were lights in a thous-
and windows along this misty,
royal road-lights that reflected
the pleasures of the rich and yet
caused no envy in the hearts of
the loyal poor.
Almost in the center of the i'm
posing line stood the home of the
duke of Perse, minister of
finance, thanked on either side. by
structures as grim and as gay as
itself, yet far less significant in
their generation. Here dwelt the
most important man in the prin-
cipality. not excepting the de-
voted prime minister himself.
Not that Perse was so we'll be-
loved, but that he held the des-
TIMES of the land in Midas-like
fingers. More than that, he was
the father of the far-famed
Countess Marlanx, the most glori-
Gus beauty at the Austrian and
Russian courts. She had gone
forth from Graustark as its most
notable bride since the wedding
day of the Princess Yetive, late
in the nineties. Ingomede, the
beautiful, had journeyed far to
the hymeneal altar; the husband
who claimed her was hated,
dishonored man in his own land.
They were married In Buda
Pesth. All Europe pitied her at
the time; there was but one form
of prophecy as to her future.
There were those who went so
far as to say that her father had
delivered her into the hands OF
a latter-day Bluebeard, who
whisked her off into the high
lands many leagues from Vienna.
She was seen no more In the
gay courts for a year. Then, of a
sudden, she appeared before them
all, as dazzlingly beautiful as
ever, but with haunting. visit
full look in her dark eyes that
could not be mistaken. The old
count found an uneasy delight in
Exhibiting her to the world once
more. plainly as a bit of proper
Ity that all men we're expected to
look upon with envy In their
hearts. She came up out OF the
lsomber hills, freed from what
