"And why the deuce should / do

The prince sat quite still In his chair,
his eyes fixed upon certain spot In
the carpet. He had not even the APP

He seemed only stepped In a sort Of
passivity. Finally, with sigh, he rose
To his feet.

His lips relaxed ever so slightly-so
slightly that they showed only q
glimpse of his teeth In one straight,
ard line. He looked ut John mildly,
and his words seemed destitute of all
offense; yet John felt the lightnings
were playing around them.

John asked.

replied, "and 1t couldn't do any good.

He was q little startled by the earn

were swept aside, masterpieces of
painting and sculpture were uncovered,
the soft brllllnnce of concealed electric
lights lit up many dark corners.
He was forty-one years old that
day, and the few words which John
had spoken to him barely an hour ago

only one thing In life that he desired.
The sight Of his treasures merely
