aged to let 1t be known to his
play-loving king that he knew the
latest French games. The French
Due de Longueville had for some
time been an honored prisoner at
the English court, held as a hos
tage from Louis XII, but de
Longueville was blockhead.. who
could not keep his little black
eyes off our fair ladies'. who hated
him, long enough to tell the deuce
Of spades from the ace Of hearts.
. So Brandon was taken from his
duties, such as they were, and
placed at the card table. This was
fortunate at first. for. being the
best player. the king always chose
him as his partner, and, as in
every other game, the king al

was owing to the fact that he did
not always allow the king to win
in some trivial matter Of game or
joust. Under these conditions,
everybody was anxious to be the
kings partner.
1t is true he frequently forgot
to divide his winnings. but his
partner had this advantage, at
least: there was no danger Of los
ing. That being the case, Bran
don's seat opposite the king was
very likely to excite envy. and the
time soon came, Henry having
learned the play. when Brandon
had to face someone else. and the
seat was too costly for a man
without a treasury.
It took but a few days to put
Brandon hors de combat, finan-
cially. and he would have been

feasted upon it to safety, as he
did with everything else. never
having learned not to cloy his ap-

So we saw little Of Brandon

Mary said she wished she had re.

You see. she could enjoy this new
plaything as well as her brother,
but the king, of course, must be
satisfied first They both had
enough eventually. Henry in one
way. Mary in another.
One day the fancy struck the
king that he would rebuild a GER

a number of the court, including

self, and went with us UP
