CONTINUED from last Saturday
CHAPTER VIII.

Margaret received her friends let
ter and the account of Baraka's trial
by the same post on the morning aft
er she and Mr. Van Torp had been to
hear "Parsifa" together, and she
opened the two envelopes before read
ing her other letters, though after as
surfing herself that there was nothing
from Logotheti.
She read the newspaper cutting
first, suppOsing that 1t contained
something fiattering about herself, for
she had been little short of public
admiration for nearly a fortnight. Ba-
raka's case was reported with the
rather brutal simplicity which charac-
terizes such accounts in the English
papers, and Logotheti's name ap-
peared in Mr. Pinney's evidence.
There had been the usual laughter"
duly noted by the stenographer, when
the poor girls smart mans clothes
were produced before the MAGISTRATE
by the policeman who had arrested
her. The magistrate had made a few
stern remarks when ordering the de-
linqueRts to prison. and had called

long glove, much to Potts distress.
for it made an ugly lump. She made
it worse by forcing in the second
envelope. which contained the news-
paper cutting.
I'm ready now" she said.
Mrs. Rushmore turned and led the
way with stately steps; she was al
ways imposing, but when she was Of
Tended she was monumental. The two
went out In silence, and walkly slowly
down the straight, dull street side by
side. Mrs. Rushmore spoke first, aft
er they had gone some distance.
81 know" she said, that something
has happened. It was in that letter.
You cannot deny it. Margaret. It was
in the letter you folded in that hur-
Tied manner"
'The news was" answered the prfma
donna, still vicious.
Il told you 50. My dear child, it's
not Of the slightest use to try to de-
ceive me. I've known you since you
were a child"

planned Margaret Grossly.
But Mrs. Rushmore no longer heard.

OHS OdW mat one was SuiIe WniIe,
and That Her Eyes Were Blood
shot.
Baraka hardened" because she did
not burst into tears. That was all,
and there were barely five-and-tWenty
lines of small print.
But the prima donna bit her hand
some lip and her eyes sparkled with
anger, as she put the cutting back
into the first envelope and took the
folded letter out of the other. The
girl had not only stolen a ruby, but
it was Margaret's ruby, her very own,
the one Logotheti had given her for
her engagement, and which she had
insisted upon having set as a ring,
though il would cover more than half
the space between her knuckle and
the joint of her third finger Further,
it had been stolen by the very girl
from whom Logotheti had pretended
that he had bought it, a fact which
cast the high light of absurdity on his
unlikely story 1t was natural enough
l.,
should have known that he was TAX
ing it to Pinney's, and that she should
have been able to prepare a little
screw of paper with a bit of glass
inside, to substitute for it. The i'm
probabilities of such an explanation
did not occur to Margaret, who saw
only the glaring fact that the hand
some Tartar girl had accompanied
Logotheti, between Londen and Paris,
disguished as a man, and had ulti-
mately robbed him, as he richly de-
served. She had imposed upon Van
Torp, too, and had probably tried to
sell him the very stone she had stolen
from Logotheti, and the one she had
made him take as a gift was nothing
but a bit of glass, as he said it might
be, for all he knew.
She devoured Lady Maud's letter in
a few moments, and then read it
twice again, which took so long that
Mrs. Rushmore sent Justine to tell
Potts to ask if Miss Dome did not
mean to go out that morning, though
the weather was so fine
Great singers generally develop
capacity for flying into RACES. even
if they have not been born with hot
tempers. It is very bad for the voice,
but it seems to be part Of the life.
Margaret was very angry, and Potts
became as meek and mild as a little
lamb when she saw the storm signals
in her mistress face. She delivered
her message in a pathetic and Op-
pressed tone, like a child recitfng the
collect for the day at a Sunday
school
The prima donna, imposing as a
young Iioness, walked slowly back
wards and forwards between her win
dow and the foot of the iron bed
stead. There was an angry light in
her eyes and instead of flushing, as
her cheeks did for any ordinary fit Of
temper, they were as white as wax.
Potts, who was a small woman,
seemed to shrink and become visiblg

were brighter than before, and the be-
ginning of a social smile wreathed
her hitherto grave lips.
There's Mr.. Van Torp, my dear"
she said in quite another tone, and
very low, and unless I'm much mis-
taken-yes, I knew it, He's with
Count Kralinsky. I saw the count
from the window yesterday when he
arrived. hope our friend will pre-
sent him"
Il dare say" Margaret answered in
differently. but surveying the two
men through the white mist of her
thick veil
Yes" said Mrs. Rushmore with de-
light, and almost whispering in her
excitement He has seen us, and
now he's telling the count who We
are"
Margaret was used to her excellent
old friends ways on such occasions,
and gave no more heed to them than
she would have given to a kitten
scanpering after ball of string. The
kitten would certainly catch the ball
in the end, and Mrs. RushmOre would
as surely capture the lion
Mr.. Van TOrp raised his hat when
he was within four or five PAGES of
the ladies, and his companion, who
was a head and shoulders taller than
he, slackened his pace and stopped a
little way behind him as Mrs. Rush
more shook hands and Margaret
nodded pleasantly

Mr. Van Torp looked from Mrs.
Rushmore to Margaret, and tried to
see her expression through her veil.
She answered his look by a very
slight inclination of the head.
I'VE shall be delighted" said the
elder lady, speaking for both
Mr. Van TorB introduced the count
to Mrs. RushmOre and then to Mar
garet, calling her Miss Donne," and
she saw that the man was handsome
as well as tall and strong. He had

complexion, and rather uncertain blue
eyes, in one of which he wore a sin
gle eysglass without a string. He
was quietly dressed and wore no Jew
elry, excepting one ring, in which
blazed large tallow-tOpped" ruby.
He had the unmistakable air of a man
of the world, and was perfectly at his
eose. When he raised his straw hat
he disclosed a very white forehead,
and short. thick fair has. There was
no sign of approaching middle age in
his face or figure, but Margaret felt,
OF guessed, that he was older than he
looked.
In her stifiy correct French, Mrs.
Rushmore said that she was en-
chanted to make his acquaintance,
and Margaret murmmed sweetly but
unintelligibly.
The count speaks English perfect

He ranged himsc' beside Margaret,
leaving the foreigner to Mrs. Rush
more, much to her qualification.

FOUL BREATH
Made Pure and Sweet BY the Use OF
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenses.
Trial Package Sent Free.

DO not go among your friends with
breath SO odious as 10 make your
presence distasteful. Four breath is
capable OF easy removal II you will
take little time to overcome IL. Gen
orally foul breath comes from one OF
TWO causes. impure gases or foul di.
gestiye fluids.
Charcoal is the strongest absorbent
OF four gases known. IL positively at
tracts poiscns and neutralizes their
evil effects.
A noted French physician swallowed
strychnine enough TO kill three men
and with teaspoonful or charcoal re-
moved the bad effects OF this terribly
swift poison.
A little charcoal in a bed room or
cellar will make foul air pure. Pure
willow charcoal mixed with honey are
two component parts OF Stuart's Char
coal Lozenges and pure breath is the
result of their use after meals. Simply
dissolve two or three after meals and
at bed time and foul breath fees at
once. No matter how you cause these
gases, whether by bad food. alcohol or
abuse OF the stomach, Stuart's Char.
coal Lozenges will stop gas making
ana sweeten the breath.
| They are perfectly harmless and the
eating OF box would cause you NJ
inconvenience whatever.
Charcoal Is hard 10 prepare for the
stomach because IL must be strong and
pure and most people will not take t.
unless made palatable. Stuart's inimit
able process presents charcoal 10 the
taste and system in all the nicely de-
sired
Choice virgin willow Is burnt into
desirable charcoal; this is mixed with
pure honey and the combination Is
compressed under tremendous power
into a lozenge of great pleasantness
and efficiency.
Don't let your bad breath make peO-
pie cross the street TO avoid you: go
to the nearest drug store and buy 2
box OF Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges to-
day and eat what you will. Two or
three after the meal will sweeten your
breath at once. IL you want proof OF
this fact send us your name and adj
tress and we will send you trial
package by mail free. Address F. A.
