he handed her out, followed her
across the pavement, and found him
self plunged into what seemed to him
to be an absolute vortex of human be-
ings, all dressed in very much the
same fashion, all laughing and talking
together very much in the same note,
all criticizing every fresh group of ar
rivals with very much the same eyes
and manner. The palm court was
crowded with little parties seated Mt
the various round tables, partaking
languidly of the most indoIent meal of
the day. Even the broad passageway
was full of men and women. standing
about and talking or looking for tables.
One could scarcely hear the music OF
the orchestra for the babel of voices.

CHAPTER vi.

The great French dramatist, dark,
pale-faced and corpulent, stood upon
the extreme edge of the stage, bran
dishing his manuscript in his hand. he
banged the palm of his left hand with
the rolled-up manuscript and looked at
them all furiously.
'"The only success I care for" ne
Numbered, sis an artistic successr
with Miss Maurel playing your
leading part, NJ. Graillot," the actor
manager declared, mot to speak of
company carefully selected to the best
of my judgment, think you may ven
ture to anticipate even that"
The dramatist bowed hurriedly to
Louise.
"You recall to me a fact" he said
calamity, (which almost reconciles me
to this diabolical travesty of some of
my lines. Proceed, then-proceedl I
will be as patient as possible"
The stage manager shouted out some
directions from his box. A gentleman
in faultless morning clothes, who
seemed to have been thoroughly enjoy
ing the interlude, suddenly adopted the
puppetlike walk of a footman. Other
actors, who had been whispering to-
gether in the wings. came back to their
places. Louise advanced alone, little
languidly, to the front of the stage. At
the first sound of her voice NJ. Grail
lot, nodding his head vigorously, was
soothed.
Her speech was a long one. 1t
appeared that she had been arraigned
before a company of her relatives, as
sembled to comment upon her mis-
deeds. She wound up with a passion
ate appeal to her husband, Mr.. Miles
Faraday, who had made an unexpected
appearance. NJ. Graillot's face, as she
concluded, was wreathed in smiles.
"Ahl" he cried. ''You have lifted us
all up! Now feel once more the in
spiration. Mademoiselle, / kiss your
hand" he went on. 1T is you who still
redeem my play. You bring back the

raised her hand-something about her

Market Ketton had seemed well
enough few minutes ago. John had
felt healthy appetite for his midday
meal, and certain interest concerning
deal in barley upon which he was
about to engage. And now another
world had him in its grip. He fiicked
the mare with his whip, turned away
from the inn, and galloped up to the
station, keeping pace with the train
whose whistle he had heard. Standing
outside was a local horse dealer of his
acquaintance.
"Take the mare back for me to Peak
Hall, will you, Jenkins, or send one of
your lads?" he begged. ST want to
catch this train"
The man assented with pleasure-it
paid to do a kindness for a Strange
wey. John passed through the ticket
office to the platform, where the train
was waiting, threw open the door of
a carriage, and flung himself into
corner seat. The whistle sounded. The
adventure of his life had begun at last.
