Nevertheless, she struck the truth in
several places. The really popular
hostess is she who knows how to put
guests at their case. never giving a

O previous visit here that the Young
american had already made on this
momentous evening.
After leaving the Ansonia banquet o.,
about 3 o'clock in the singular manner
noted by the big doorkeeper. Kilt
redge. in accordance with his promise
to Alice, had driven directly to the
Hue du Cloitre Notre-Dame, and a,
twenty minutes past nine by the clock
IN the Tavern of the Three Wise Men
he had drawn up at the house where
the Bonnetons lived. Five minutes
later the young man was seated In
h sacristan's little salon, assuring
Alice that he didn't mind the rain, that
n banquet vas a bore, anyhow, and
that he hoped she was now going to
prove herself q sensible and reasonable
little girl.
Il Alice welcomed her lover eagerly. She
had been anxious about him, she did
not know why, n when the storm came
she had been more anxious. Blu now
she was treasured and-and happy. Her
mantling color, her lleaving bosom, and
the fond, wistful lights In her dark eyes
told how very happy she "a and
how proud! After all he trusted her.
1t must be so; he had left his friends.
had left this fine banquet and, in spite
OF the pain she had given him, in spite
of h bad night, he had come to her
here in her humble home.
And 1t would have straightway been
the love scene all over again, for Alice
had never seemed so adorable, but for
the sudden and ominous entrance of
Mother Bonneton. She eyed the visitor
with frank unfriendliness and, without
mincing her words, proceeded to tell
him certain things, notably that his
attentions to Alice must cease and that
his visits here would henceforth be I'M
welcome.
In vain the poor girl protested against
this breach of hospitality. Mother
Bonneton held her ground griimly. de-
claring that she had a duty to perform
and would perform 1t,
What duty?' asked the American.
"a duty to NJ. Groener."
At this name Alice started apprehen-
sively. Kittredge knew that she had a
cousin named Groener. a wood carver
who lived in Belgium, and who came
to Paris occasionally to see her and to
get orders for his work. On one occa-
sion he had met this cousin and fad
judged him a well-meaning but rather
stupid fellow who need not be seriously
considered in his efforts to win Alice.

And now two important things hap
pened, n of them unexpected. The
expected thing was that NJ. Gibe-
lin came forward Immediately from the
second cab followed by Papa Tignol
and a policeman. The shadowing DO
tective was in a vile humor which was
not improved when he got the message
left by the flippant American.

dencei Well teach him at

The detective started. "You know
my name? What do YOU mean?.
The cab was already moving, but
the driver turned on his seat and, wav-
ing his hand in derision, he called back:

horse: Hue, cocotte.'

auire the liquor for this dish.
1t viii season a chicken pie, or you
may use it for oyster bouillon. Butter
a pudding dish; put a layer of oys-
tiers in the bottom; strew fine crumbs
over them; dot the crumbs with bits
of butter; sprinkle with a little finely
minced parsley; dust with salt and
pepper, and cover with a white sauce
butter drawn with milk, instead of
water. Next comes a second layer OF
oysters; then more crumbs, until your
materials are used up.
The last layer should be crumbs. but
tered and seasoned.
Bake, covered, for fifteen minutes,
uncover, and brown delicately. 1t will
be found greatly superior to the usual
preparation of scalloped oysters-less
watery, richer in flavor, and creamy
in consistency,
