Of one OF the little hotels that stand
timorously and humbly, yet expectant-
", between the imposing cream-stuc-
co Of the Grand hotel at one end and
the elaborate pink-stucco Of the Grande
Rretegne at the other. The hob-nailed

the Barone on him? He's the best
man in southern italy with foils and
broadswords. Sic 'em, Towser; sic

The subject was extremely distaste-
full to the artist. The colonel, a rough
soldier, whose diplomacy had never
risen above the heights Of clubbing
a recalcitrant hillman into submits

stood the artists interest in the rose
Of the Harrigan family. He would
have liked to talk more in regard to
the interloper, but 1t would have been
sheer folly. The colonel, In his blum
dering way, would have brought up
the subject again at tea-time and put
everybody on edge. He had, unfor-
tunately for his friends, reputation
other than that Of a soldier; he posed
as a peacemaker. He saw trouble
where none existed, and the way he
patched up imaginary quarrels would
have strained the patience of Job. Still,
every one loved him, though they lived
in mortal fear of him. So Abbott came
about quickly and sailed against the
wind.

absolute surrender appalled, her. But
that good fortune which had ever been
