the gateposts and then at the name on
They were the same. Once more she
gathered up her belongings and her
dog and passed In through the gate
posts and wandered up the long drive
on tour Of inspection. She walked
through the paths dividing rose beds
until she came to some open windows.
The main entrance hall Of the house
seemed to be hidden away somewhere
amid the tall old trees.
Peg made straight for the open win
dows and walked into the most won
derful looking room she had ever seen.
Everything in it was old and massive.
It bespoke centuries gone by in every
detail. Peg held her breath as she
looked around her. Pictures and
tapestries stared at her from the walls.
Beautiful old vases were arranged in
cabinets. The carpet was deep and
soft and stifed all sound. Peg almost
gave an ejaculation of surprise at the
wonders of the room, when she sud-
denly became conscious that she was
not alone in the room, that others were
there and that they were talking.
She looked in the direction the
sounds came from and saw, to her as
constituent, a man with a woman In
his arms. he was speaking to her in
a most ardent manner. They were
partially concealed by some statuary.
Peg concluded at once that she had
intruded on some marital scene at
which she was not desired, so she in
stantly sat down with her back to
them.
She tried not to listen, but some Of
the words came distinctly to her. Just
as she was becoming very uncomforta-
BILE and had half made up her mind to
leave the room and find somewhere
else to wait she suddenly heard herself
addressed and in no uncertain tone Of
voice. There were indignation, sur
prise and anger in Ethels question:
"How long have you been here?"
Peg turned around and saw a str1k-
ingly handsome, beautifully dressed
young lady glaring down at her. Her
manner was naughty in the extreme.
Peg felt most unhappy as she looked
at her and did not answer 1mmedi-
ately.

Of the frontier an almost continuous
line of intrenchments stretches
across Jutland from the Baltic to the
North sea the Danes have made no at
tempt to fortify their side. An off,
cial at Vamdrup, the little frontier
town of the train traffic between Ger
many and Denmark, declared that
Danish troops were being kept away
from the border line in view of the
possibility that the strained relations
between the frontier Danes and the
German soldiery having dominion
over the Danes of Schleswig:H olstein
might lead to fray. Every yard of
the German side of the frontier is
watched, and all carriers driving out
Of Germany wagons in which anyone
