The du1Ae $ impaSsioned plea was of no avail His confreres saw the wis dom of keeping Russia's greedy hand
 out of the country's affairs at least for the present-and reiterated their decision to seek the loans in England and France The question, therefore,
 would not be taken to parliament for reconsidera tfon. The duke sat down, pale in defeat; his heart was more bit ter than ever against the shrewd American who had induced all these men to see through his eyes.
 At this juncture the prince, gather ing from the manner of his ministers that the question was settled to his liking, leaned forward and announced to his uncle, the premier:
 1I'm tired, Uncle Caspar How much longer is it?'
 Count Halfont coughed. "Aheml Just a few minutes, your highness. Pray be patient-er-my little man." Prince Bobby flushed. He always knew that he was being patronized
 when any one addressed him as "my little man."
 T have an engagement" he said,
 with stiffening of his back.
 The Duke of Perse smiled grimly. In his most polite manner he arose to ad-
 dress the now harassed princeling, who shifted uneasily on the pile of
 lawbooks.
 May your most humble subject pre-
 sume to inquire into the nature of
 your highness' enga gement?"
 You may, your grace" said the prince.
 The duke waited. A smile crept into the eyes of the others. "Well, what is the engagement"
 T had date to ride with Uncle Jack at II and to review the troops" Count Halfont interposed good hu- moredly: There is nothing more to come before us today, your grace, so I fancy we may as well close the meet ing. To my mind it is rather a silly custom which compels us to keep the prince with us-er-after the opening
 of the session. Of course, your high
 ness, we don't mean to say that you are not interested in our grave deliber- ations."
 Prince Bobby broke in eagerly: "Un- cle Jack says I've just got to be inter- ested in 'em whether I want to or not. He says it's the only way to catch on to things and become regular prince. You see, Uncle Caspar, I've got lot to learn."
 ."Yes, your highness, you have,' sol emnly admitted the premier. But l am sure you will learn." Under such an able instructor as Uncle Jack you may soon know more | than the wisest man in the realm, added the Duke of Perse. Thank you, your grace" said the prince so politely that the duke was confounded T know Uncle Jack will be glad to hear that. He's-he's afraid

 to the io4... ~- o,ooo,ooo gavvoS, before mentioned. At the head of the long table, perched upon an augmentary pile of lawbooks, surmounted by a lit tie red cushion, sits the prince, almost lost in the huge old walnut chair of his forefathers.
 The prince was sturdy, curly haired lad, with big brown eyes and lam entably, noticeable scratch on his nose. acquired in less stately but more prof itable pursuits. Ct seems that he had peeled his nose while sliding to second base in certain American game that he was teaching the juve- nile aristocracy how to play.)
 . About the table sat the three regents and the other men high in the adminis- tration of affairs, among them Gen. eral BraZe of the army, Baron Pultz of the mines, Roslon of agriculture. The Duke of Perse was discussing the great loan question. The prince was watching his gaunt, saturnine face with more than usual interest.
 "Of course 1t is not too late to rescind the order promulgated at our last sit ting. There are five bankers in St. Petersburg who will finance the loan without delay. We need not delay the interminable length of time necessary to secure the attention and co-opera- ton of bankers in France and Eng land It is all nonsense to say that Russia has sinister motives in the mat ter. We need the money hsfore the

 For some unaccountable reason he truck the table violently with his fist tnd directed his glare upon the aston

 There are three regents, sir, in charge of the affairs of state-Count ,Halfont, the Duke of Perse and Baron Jasto Dang1oss. who is minister of po- lice. Count Halfont is granduncle of the prince by marriage. The Duke of Perse is the father of the unhappy Countess Ingomede, the young and beautiful wife of the eXiled Iron Count Marlanx. No doubt you've heard of him.

 Spantz gave him a whitening look, as much as to say that he was a fool to ask such question in place so public. Without replying, he got to his feet.

 The American sank back in his chair. Suddenly he became conscious of a disquietipg feeling that some one was looking at him inteptly from behind. He turned in his chair and found him. self meeting the gaze of a ferocious looking, military appearing little man at table near by. His waiter ap- peared at his elbow with the change.
 'Who the devil is that old man at the table there?" demanded young Mir. King loudly.
 The waiter assumed a look of ex- treme insolence. "That is Baron Dan- gloss, minister of police. Anything more. sir?'
 ''Yes. Whats he looking so hard at me for? Does he think I'm a pick pocket?"
 'sYou know as much as I, sir" was all that the waiter said in reply. King pocketed the coin he had intended for

If you should happen to be on the ave pue near the castle gate at 12 o'clock you will see the beauty and chivalry of Graustark. The soldiers are not the only ones who are on parade ? There was an unmistakable sheer in his tone.
 You don't care much for society, I'd say," observed Truxton, with a smile.
 Spantz's eyes famed for an instant and then subtIy resumed their most ingratiating twinkle. .sWe cannot all be peacocks," he said quietly. ..You will also see that the man who rides beside the princes carriage wheel is an American, while Graustark nobles take less exalted places"
 "An American, eh?'
 ''Yes. Have you not heard of John Tuliis, the princes friend? He, your countryman, is the real power behind our throne. On his deathbed the princes father placed his son in this

It goes without saying that the inno- cent rejoinder opened the way to an acrid discussion of John Tullis. If that gentleman's ears burned in re- sponse to the sarcastic comments of the Duke of Perse and Baron Pultz, they probably tingled pleasantly as the result of the stout defense put up by Halfont.

Perhaps there is no better explana-
ton Of why one breed Of cows Is better
for milk production than the other,
than to look into the history OF them
as breeds. In doing this we find how
they were produced and why. We
find, for instance, that the beef animal
has been bred in her native country by
breeders who were past masters In the
art of breeding. For hundreds OF
years they have devoted their efforts
along the line Of producing an animal
which would convert the very greatest
possible amount Of food consumed, into
beef and fat to deposit over the back
and loin and rump. over the ribs and
down deep in the twist. They have
striven to breed such an animal be-
cause there has been a demand for
Just such an animal. and this demand
has sprung from the consumer Of beef

market, through the jobber and on to
the packer, and from him through his
buyers to the commission men and on
down through the feeders Of steers to
the breeders Of beef cattle. In the
