Prince Eric laughed.
Well, it is rather pleasing
for a Prince to think that
he's cut out a poet" he
said gaily. Its the sort
of thing a Prince doesn't
often get the chance of
doing"
Il should think not, in

Duke. I'm a country in
which the natural distinc-
tions between classes are
carefully Observed"

makes it SO particularly
gratifying" said the Prince;
but the Grand Duke would
not allow him to treat the
subject lightly.

preston. ct would be

began by writing a letter to him.
The Grand Duke started in his chair
and repeated his daughters words
with emphasis. "You-began-by
writing-a letter-to him!"
The Princess defended herself as
best she could. Il didn't see why l
shouldn't" she said. He wrote such
beautiful poetry, all about love and
that sort of thing, and wanted to tell
him how much l admired it." And
then the whole secret was dragged out
and the full confession was made.
TRISTRAM (that was the poets pen
nance had awakened sympathetic
chords in the Princess bosom by his
beautiful verses. She had yielded to a
sudden impulse and sent an anonymous
letter. She had corrupted her maid
and arranged for an answer to be sent
for at gloveshop. The correspondence
thus begun had continued, had become
quite intimate. It had seemed ro-
mantle to have that mystery in the
midst of the unromantic palace Ell
quette; but now
And now" said the Grand Duke
with scorn, your poet appears to have
got tired of you. It serves you right, of
course; but still"
He was about to say that he was
glad; but the Princess protested.
1t was l who got tired first, -
\ she said Indignantly.
y Indeed! And may ask what
H it was that caused you to get
tired?"
Again the Princess blushed.
1T was Prince Eric, papa" she said,
with crimson face
Il see." He spoke a shade more
kindly now, feeling that things were
not quite SO bad as he had feared.
Princess Isolde had just been affianced
to Prince Eric, and it was all to the
good that she was willing to throw over
the poet for his sake.
He's so good looking" she said,
and he dances SO beautifully, and he
says such beautiful things to me
Quite so, my dear. You needn't
apologize, said the Grand Duke.
Only, if he was to find out about
those letters, papa"
Precisely. That's the point. Or if
other people were to find out, that
another point. Or if that republican
rag Socialismus' was t. get hold of

so bad as that, is it? And what
sort of letters were they? Letters about
poetry, or letters about other things
as well?"
Partly about poetry; but some of
them were about other things as well, -
the Princess admitted with a deeper
blush than ever, and the Grand Duke
felt once again that the situation was
serious.
