That reminds ne You'll be more than
a baroneSS-more than a princess.
You will be a queen. Don't you catch
the point: You will be Mrs. King
The Grand Duke Paulus was dis
tinctly annoyed. He had Travelled
many miles, endured quite a number
of hardships, and all to no purpose.
When dawn came his emsSarieS re
turned from the city with the lamen-
table information that the government
had righted itself. that MarlanX's sen
sational revolution was at an end and
that the regents would be highly hon
ored if his eXcellcncy could overlook
the distressingIy chaotic conditions at
court and condescend to pay the cas-
tie visit.
The grand duke resolved that he
would visit the castle in very in
formal way. extend his congratulations
and offer his services. which he knew
would be declined with thanks Incl
dentally he would mention the bond
issue; also he would find the oppor-
tunity to suggest to the ministry that
his government still was willing TO
make large grants and stupendous
promises if any sort of arrangement
could be made by which the system
might be operated in conjunction with
branch lines of the imperial roads.
And SO it was that at midday he
rode in pomp and spendor through
the city gates, attended by his staff
and rather overpOwering bOdyguard.
The grand duke, with all the AFRO
gance Of a real parsonage, was late. 1t
was not for him to consider the con
ditions that distressed the court of
Graustark-not at all. He was a
grand duke and he would take his own
time in paying his respects. When he
finally presented himself at the castle
doors a sleepy group of attendants
actually yawned in his presence.
No one had slept driug the night
just passed. Excitement and the suf-
fering of others had denied sumber to
one and all. even to those who had not
slept for many days and nights Now
the reaction was upon them. RelaXa-
ton had succeeded tenScness.
When the grand duke entered the
great, somber throne room he was
confronted by a punctiliously polite
assemblage, but every eyelid was as
heavy as lead and as prone to sink.
The prince sat far back in the great
chair Of his ancestors, his sturdy legs
sticking straight out in front of him.
The grand duke advanced between the
respectful lines and knelt at the foot
of the throne.

everywhere for support. The grand

rehearsed speech and smiled benignly
as he stepped forward and kissed the
hand that had been extended some
