'How horrible!'''. she said, and the
Frenchwoman patted' her shoulder re,
Immediately following the servttor
came Pike, the same self possessed
Pike, clad in a linen buster and a
straw hat that was decorated with
bright ribbon. If there was anything
distinctive about him It was his scarf,
which was of that type known as
Windsor and much affected by artists
in the east and every one in the west.
He carried a towel with him and
dropped it in one hand as he glanced
about.
"Lawv' he observed, startled, but
amused. II didn't know there were
folks here. Reckon you'll have to ex-
cuse me. Here, sonp' he called, toss
ing the towel into Michele's hands and
walking over to the table. Hawcastle,
Lady Creech and Horace stared unbe-
lovingly. Ethel hid her face, with an
other little shudder, as Pike, without

Horace mentally wrfthed under the
yelled taunt, but turned quickly with
an assent in effect.
do you wonder that sis and 1 have
emancipated ourselves?" he asked, and
the noble earl, with softened glance
as he thought Of the dollars, replied
blandly, mot at all, my dear boy"
and turned once more to his paper.
Won Grollerhagen glanced at the
three with slight amusement and held
out the caviare to Pike.
''Can I persuade you to try one Of
my national Dishes" he asked-:"ca-

Daniel looked him straight In the

"Pd never get into the legislature

he remarked, ''but I guess I'm far
