And bold and mighty service do,
Till wrong gives place to peace anC

She wants men of heroic mould
Who for mankind will do and dare
The tide Of conquest back TO hold
That each may have an honest share
The world at large, by conflict torn,
Such as il never knew before,
Wants men, wherever reared or born,
To earth lasting peace restore
The H. s. 4, wants men so brave
To battle on land and sea,
When ends the war. o 'cr all may way

CHAPTER III.
At the Rldinn School.

His royal highness the Crown Prince
Ferdinand William Otto was in dis
grace.
He had risen at six, bathed, dressed,
and gone to mass, in disgrace. He
had breakfasted at seven-thirty on
fruit, cereal, and one egg, in disgrace.
He had gone to his study at eight
O'Clock for lessons, in disgrace. A
long lire e tutors came and went all
morning.. and he worked diligently, but
he was still in disgrace. All morn
ing long and in the intervals between
tutors he had tried to catch Miss
Braithwaite's eye.
Except for the most ordinary civil
tiles, she had refused to look IN his
direction.
The French tutor was standing near
photograph of Hedwig. and pretend-
ing not to look at it. Prince Ferdinand
William Otto had a suspicion that the
tutor was in love with Hedwig.
Prince Ferdinand William Otto did
not like the French tutor.
He also found the sun unsettling.
Besides. he hated verbs. Nouns We're
different. One could do something
with nouns, although even hey had
way of having genders. Into his
head popped a recollection of a de-
lightful pastime Of the day before
nothing more nor less than Tipping
paper wads at the guard on the scenic
railway as the car went past him.
Prince Ferdinand William Otto tore
off the corner of a piece of paper.
chewed it deliberately. rounded and
hardened it with his royal fingers, and
aimed 1t at NJ. Puaux. 1t struck him
in the eye.
Instantly things happened. NJ,
Puaux yelled. and clapped hand to
lis eye. Miss Braithwaite rose. His
oval highness wrote a rather shaky
French verb. with the wrong termina-
ton. And on to this scene came
Milky for the riding lesson.
Milky surveyed the scene. He had.
of course, bowed inside the door, and
all that sort of thing. But Milky wcs
an informal person, and was quite apt
to bow deeply before his future sover-
eign. and then poke him in the chest.
"Well &" said Milky.
"Good morning." said Prince Ferdi-
nand William Otto, In small and
nervous voice.
Nothing wrong. is there7" de-
manded Milky.
N. Puaux got ont his handkerchief
and said nothing violently.
"Otto r. said Miss Braithwaite.

Nothing" He looked about. He
wal quite convinced that II. Puaux

Perhaps the old kings memory was
good. Perhaps there was change IN
Mettllch's voice.
"A good boy2'
"None better, sire. He is devoted
to his royal highness. He is outside
now"
Bring him in. I'll have look at
him."
Milky, summoned by chamberlain.
stopped inside the doorway and bowed
deep,y.

He advanced.

"Humph! Quite right. too. Little
devils, most of Them" He drew hirh-
self up in his chair. "Lieutenant

to you. / believe il, is to you that our
fright today is due"
Nikky's heart thumped. He went
rather pale.
1T is my intention, Lieutenant Lar
isch, to place the crown prince In your
personal charge. For reasons I need
not go into. it is imperative that he
take no more excursions alone. wanf
real friend for the little crown
prince. One who is both brave and
loyal"
Afterward, in his small room, Milky
composed neat, welI-rounded speech,
in which he expressed his loyalty,
gratitude, aud undying devotion to the
crown prince. 1t was an elegant lit
tie speech. Unluckily. the occasion for
1t had gone by two hours.
III am grateful, sire" was what
he said. ST" And there he stopped
and choked up. 1t was rather dread
full.

said the king gravely, and nodded his
head in gesture of dismissal.
Milky backed toward the door, struck
