by the glare OF a torch, was no more

lance Is the Price of Prosperity.
It's cOntentment; not apathy. The
masses of the people are satisfied.
The dissatisfied are a number, large
in the aggregate, but not large in pro-
portion to the total population, who
are anxious for a political eruption, in
the hope of coming out on top, or
higher up than they are now. The
malcontents are mostly of the non
productive variety. They include a
lot of young fellows who hate hard
work and think that politics owes
them a living, and they don't much

CHAPTER v.
An Information.

They seem not to appreciate your
fete champetre, my Lady" At the
verge of the group OF peasant dancers,
the Lady Elise and the Marquis de
Beauvillers, who had left the other
guests to the enjoyment Of fresh cuI-
mary surprises, paused to survey a
scene, intended, yet failing. to be
festal. For whether these people

she had observed only a short time
before, when the minuet was in pro-

fixed intently upon her

In costume white and SHINING, the
Lady Elise moved through the grace

now poised, now swaying, from head
to foot responsive to the rhythm of
that "pastime OF little steps" Her
lips, too, were busy, but such was tina
witchery of her motion-all fire and
life!-the silk-stockinged cavaliers
whom she thus RECALLED with wit,
mockery, or jest, could, for the most
part, respond only with admiring
glances or weakly protesting words

The young man behind the head
dresses, now nodding viciously, moved
nearer the front. Dressed in the
rough though not picturesque fashion
of the northern fishermen, a touch of
color in his apparel lent to his bearing
of his swarthy face did not belle. For
a few moments he watched the girl;
the changing eyes and lips, Swallowed
by hair that shone and flashed like
bright Furnished gold then catching
her gaze, the black eyes cleaned. An
instant their eyes fingered; hers
startled, puzzled
Where have | seen him." My
lady, in turning, paused to swing
over her shoulders a glance.

the dance-a fair, handsome noble
man of slim figure and elegant bear
ing.
That's just what can't tell you,"
she answered, sweeping a courtesy
that fitted the rhythm of the music
Only face | should remember"
"Should?" The marquis look fol-
lowed hers.
But the subject of their converse
ton, as if divining the trend of their
talk, had drawn back
"Oh, he is gone now" she answered.
"a malcontent, perhaps! One meets

mo, no! He did not look"
Some poor fellow, then, your beau

Humble admirer!"
Then | would remember him!" she
laughed as the dance came to an end.
Now in a tented pavilion servants,
richly CARRIED in festal costume,
passed among the guests, circulating
trays, bright with golden dishes and
goblets, stamped with the ancient in
sigma of the Mount, and once the
property OF the affluent monks. early

followed, bearing light delicacies, con

SALADS FOR HOT DAYS
coNcocTIoNs THAT WILL TEMPT
POOR APPETITE.
When Heavy Meat Dishes Are Out Of
Place These May Be Used to Adj
vantase--Both Cooling
and Nourlshlng.

The appetite jaded by heat may be
salads are seasonable. Heavy meat
concoctions and most Of the fish mix
lures are not suitable for hot weather.
The ideal summer salad has three
requisites-it must be light. appetizing
In appearance and icy cold. French
dressing Is more seasonable than may
onnaise, also more. digestible, and
fruits and vegetables are preferable
to nuts, fish or meats. 1t is hard to
get headed lettuce In summer, but II
the young, tender leaves Of the gar
den lettuce are crisped by being put In
q cloth on the ice they are improved.
Salad being both cooling and nour-
ishing, may be eaten at both lunch and
dinner. To prepare 1t easily have let
tuce always crisping in the refrigera-
tor and also have pint bottle filed
with thick French dressing. This
should be well shaken before using.
and any left in the salad bowl may be
strained and poured back.
1t is economical to use leftover
vegetables and fruit from dinner of
the previous day. Particularly nice Is
one made Of tomatoes cut in eighths.
asparagus, shredded green peppers,
thinly sliced cucumber, cake Of
Neufchatel cheese and q liberal supply
OF Chill sauce. This IL well marinated
with French dressing favored with
onion, or chopped onion may be mixed
through the salad. Serve on bed Of
lettuce.
This salad my be mixed with string
beans. peas or small lima beans.
Cream cheese is good through the mix
ture. and II nothing. else Is convenient

It.
A rather heavier salad Is made from
hard-boiled eggs cut lengthwise. Re
! move yolks and rub to paste with
anchovies. Refill and put slice Of
anchovy on each section. Serve on
hearts OF lettuce.
j Another nice mixture for plain let
tuce salad are squares Of cream
cheese sprinkled thickly with caviare.
Place these in the center Of the let
tuce and surround with border of
crisp bacon broken very fine. Cover
with French dressing seasoned with
chutney.
Green peppers are invaluable for q
summer salad. Served whole, they are
delicious when mixed with a highly
seasoned mayonnaise. A spoonful Of
the dressing should be put on top Of
each cup. Another good filling Is
cold slaw and shredded peppers well
mingled. A pretty salad Is made by
arranging bed Of tender green let
tuce leaves, or young nasturtium
leaves, and on It putting center Of
cream cheese balls. then a row Of
shredded green peppers. another row
Of cheese balls and an outer border Of
shredded pimentos. The canned ones
may be used. Cover with thick
French dressing. II onions are liked.
small pearl onions can be prinkled
over the cheese balls.
A delicious fruit salad Is round Of
tender pineapple placed on lettuce
