the lieutenant approaching again jim
company with his aunt, whom Helene
knew slightly.
Another sutton interposed at once,
hurrying her to a table with such
haste as to bewilder her. This program
was followed the rest of the evening.
Whenever Cayanaugh was seen In II
vicinity some n was sure to intervene
and whisk her away. She knew cha Ice

She wondered If Cavanaugh Has

III he has the diplomacy one in Hhe
service of Uncle Sam should hsle,"
she thought, she will find a way or
make one"
Once during a dance the young Off
GER collided with her partner, and she
felt confident that the action was in
territorial. AS he begged her pardon
his partner started to give the desired
introduction. Instantly the man with
Helene danced her away in double
quick time. After this dance Cava-
naugh took his departure.
HE hasn't what George desigpates
as staying powers" she concluded.
Two days passed without any appar-
ent effort on Cavanaugh's part to eff
feet a meeting.
HE is either stupid or Indifferent"
she concluded, slightly piqued.
She changed her mind when she re-
ceived from his aunt an invitation to a
small dinner to be given for the young
lieutenant.
"That was a shrewd move" she
unused. 81 wonder what he would do
If 1 should not accept the inyitation nj"
A spirit Of contrariness seized lher.
She determined to prolong the situa-
ton. She sent her regrets as to the
dinner, pleading indisposition. The fb
forced her to remain indoors through
out twenty -four beautiful hours. 1t
made her IL, .ically indignant against
the man, of course.
On the following day she took her
first riding lesson, accompanied by a
riding master and her younger bro Their,
George. AS they rode three abreast
Lieutenant Cavanaugh, mounted ION a
shining chestnut, approached. To Hell
ene's utter surprise he wheeled about
and rode at her side.
"What audacity!' she thought, turn.
ing to give him a glance meant TO be
annihilating. Her frigidity was vast
ed. The young lieutenant was not even
looking at her. With flushed face and
set features he was concentrating his
whole attention on his horse. After a
sharp trot they came to a corner and
with a sharp cut Of his whip the lieu
tenant turned and vanished down a
side street.

When they heard that Lieutenant
Cavanaugh, til United States cav
airy. was coming home on a months
leave of absence a general alarm was
sounded, and they met in secret ses-
sion for conference and action.
They were all openly and avowedly
suitors for the lily white hand OF
Helene Kemble, and now they formed
an alliance for the purpose of keeping
the trespasser from their territory.
1t was conceded generally that the
odds would be in favor of an army of
fcer, and, though they gathered So
lace from the fact that he never
brought a mount with him, they re-
allied that obstacles must be placed
in his path.
The first fruits of their common
cause against the enemy were seen at
Mrs. Dalrymple's lawn fete, which
occurred on the night of Lieutenant
Gayanaugh's return to his home city.
Helene was talking to a little knot of
friends when she saw her hostess APP
