Alice read it to herself in bewiderment then read it
aloud to Thurey II don't understand it in the least
she said, What could it possibly mean?"
"Hertzegotha," repeated Thurley, suddenly trifle
pale. Alice! It's one from her country looking
for Princess Thirvinia! What shall we do?'
Alice had risen gavanicaly. Good heavens! Well,
suppose it had to come, and she shrugged her shout

Chapter XXI. Wenck. for Hertzeeotha

THURLEY heard him in dream, as he bent
very low above her hand and touched it with his
lips. He spoke in German.
Permit me, your Hghness to present my humble
self, the special agent of your Highness Imperial Gov
eminent at Hertzegotha.
It seemed incredible this fiery haired fiery whiskered
being representing the land of the runaway Princess
accepting herself for that cratic young parsonage with
confidence and demeanor that left no doubt of his
absolute conviction that the Princess stood before him.
She thought of one faltering test.
But, Mein Herr" she answered in his native
tongue, I regret to say have you before
All, that is my misfortune" he told her readily.
"Never have been at your court but once, when by
great favor of the Fates beheld your Hghness from

This, them was the explanation. The resemblance
she doubtless bore to the Princess, known to be
where concealed in America, sufficient to convince
him of her royal identity. She knew not what do
what to answer. She took half moment in which to
glance at her visitors companion.
He was one of those intensely black Teutons, with
a military brush of bristes on top of his head and
an equally bristng shoe dauber prcking at his
His expression was most severe. AS a matter of
fact, he thoroughly mild, and at the present mo
ment too thoroughly awed to breathe in his normal
manner.
1t seemed to Thurey that the Joke was proceeding
just tre too far that to go permitting these
representatives of serious, worried Government

Gaard and the Count were Continental acquaintance.
They were in manner, friends. Their relationship was
more in some ways and less in others than of
friendliness, since in deal concerned with foreign
securities they were intimately bound together.
The matter involved tremendous sums OF money. 1t
was planned to involve much more, which should pres
emily materialize as "velvet," in which they would
share alike. 1t all necessarily secret enterprise,

tasteful to the college man who had once made college
widows. He meant to brook no interference by such

be fourd necessary for his elimination from the drama
The Count for his part, frankly despised Gaiard's
methods with women and secretly sneer1ng also at some
of his business tactics, concerned himself but little with
q rival whom he felt to be essentially weak in fervor
poetry, and the glamour of the game.
On the other side of the complex situation were
ranged two dimpled women with never armament
bristing in view. They had come to understanding
and agreement with the utmost ease. Thurley, from
having half decided that Fiaschi and Gaillard should
both be punished through their devices, had read

scrawled:

There was nothing to do but 60.
Gaillard went-and found himself
obliged to share the princess with
more than the usual number of men,
among whom was the Count.

find Fiaschi present and obviously

The oceans and the rivers are the
natural highways, and until the dis
covery of the power of steam most OF
the civilization of the world was con-
fined to those places where the shores
of the seas offered safe haven for
ships and along the banks of the
streams. Until railroads were made
places far inland, however fertile or
rich in natural products, were OF little
value. but wherever these have eX-
tended the wilderness fees ahead and
