Her royal highness--n


"Her royal highness--"
'Annunciata is fool" said his ma
Jesty. Then, dismissing his daughter
with gesture. "We don't know how
to raise our children here" he said
impatiently. 'The English do better.
And even the Germans"
1t is not etiquette to lower ones
eyebrows at king and glare. But
General Mettlich did it. He was rather
a poor subject. "The Germans have
not our problem. SIRE" he said, and
stuck up his mustache.
'Tm not going to raise the boy a
prisoner" insisted the king stubbornly.
General Mettlich bent forward and
placed hand on the old mans knee.
I'VE shall do well, SIRE" he said
gravely, ito raise the boy at ALL"
There was a short silence. which the
king broke. ''What is new?'
''We have broken up the university

what do those asses of doctors say
about me?"
Even at the best, sire" He
looked very ferocious, and cleared his
throat He was terribly ashamed that
his voice was breaking. "Eycn at the
best, but of course they can only give
an opinion"
"Six months?"
"a year, sire"
"And at the worstw said the king,
with grim smile Then. following
his own line of thought: "But the
people love the boy, / think"
''They do. It is for that reason,
sire, that advise particular caution"
He hesitated Then, "Sire," he said
earnestly, there is something of
which must speak. The Committee
of Ten has organized again"
Involuntarily the king glanced at
the photograph on the table.

from the tea tray, ten marks Humph
For lack of attention during religious
instruction, five marks. Ten off for
the sugar. and only five for inattention

you to say, sir?'
Prince Ferdinand William Otto
looked at Milky and Milky looked
back. Then Ferdinand William otto's
left eyeld dropped. Milky was
astounded. How was he TO know the
treasury of strange things that the
crown prince had tapped the previous
afternoon? But, after glance around
tee room, Nikky's eyelid dropped also.
He slid the paper wad into his pocket.
81 am afraid his royal highness has
hurt your eye, M. Puaux," said Miss
BraithWaite.
"Not at ALL" said the unhappy young
man, testing the eye to discover If he
could see through it. Il am sure his
royal highness meant no HARM" NJ
Puaux went out, with his handker-
chief to his eye.
While Oskar, his valet, put the
crown prince into riding clothes, Milky
and Miss Braithwaite had a talk. 1t
began by Nikky's stating that she was
likely to see him great deal now.
and he hoped she would not find hin
in the way. He had been made aide
de-eamp to the crown prince, vice
Cant Lussin, who had resigned on
account of Illness, having been reused
at day-break out of healthy sleep
to do *.
Not that Milky said just that. What
he really observed was: ''The king
sent for me, last night. Miss Braith-
waite, and-and asked me to hang
around"
Thus Milky, Of his sacred trust !
None the less sacred to him, either,
that he spoke lightly. He glanced up
mt the crossed swords. and his eyes
were hard.
And Miss Bralthwaite knew. She
reached over and put a. hand on his
arm. "You and l." she said. "Out

Loungtng at window was the lar
who was waiting at the time, the
Countess Loschek. Just now she was
getting rather wiggIng. but she was
remarkably calm.

although 1t was known that they
quarreled a great deal over small .
things, especially over tive coal fire.
Some said that the reu thing that
held them together was resentment
that the little crown prince stood be-.
tween the Princess Hedwig and the
throne. Annuneiata was not young.
but she was younger than her dead
brother Hubert.
The countess yawned.

archduchess.

''Why probably2'
"She goes there great deal"
The archduchess eyed her. "WeIl.

something seething In that wicked
brain of yours"
The countess shrugged her shoulders.
Not that she resented having a
wicked brain She rather fancied the
idea. "She and young Lieutenant Lar
isch have tea quite frequently with
his royal highness."
Little fool !" said Annunciata. But
she fTowned, and sat tapping her tea
cup with her spoon. She was just a
tIifle afraid of Hedwig, and she was
more anxious than she would have
cared TO acknowledge. "How far do

Of the time between one o'clock and
his rising hour of five he had lain in
his narrow camp bed and thought. He
had not confided all his worries to the
king.
Evidences of renewed activity on the
part of the terrorists were many. In
the past month two of his best secret
agents had disappeared. One had been
found the day before, stabbed in the
