Besserley nodded and the minister con-
tinued The military have no secret service
as we have 1t is our duty to work hand in
hand with them and to take them into our
counses in times of war or where any military
matter is concerned, but they have no chain
of informers, as we have had, working just
the same ever since the signing of the Armls-
tice working actively now in every country
of Europe Sylvia Hume has become lost
soul to the military.
But our people have gone on and on until
they tracked her down. At any time we could
have laid our hand upon her except for one
fact She has great fear of us. She has never
ventured into France, or out of her adopted
country
Germany"
Yes But now she is on the point of ven
turing out for the first time. She is about to
visit the Riviera She has been advised by
the doctors that her husband must spend the
winter in a sunny climate. She believes -
what is the truth - that the side OF France
which is dangerous to her has no idea OF her
existence She may do right. She may not.
She can come to the Riviera, for all we care.
She can call herself, as she has perfect
right to, woman close to royalty bearing
great name Never should we give sign that
we knew.
But if Pelettes France discovers her
identity it would be no affair of ours. 1t would
be the military court before which she would
be dragged. 1t would be the military who
would send her to her death"
And them"
"Ah, my friend" Lempriere replied, do
not ask me too much. Be content with reallz-
ing this Her name is written in letters OF
gold in the records of the patriots OF the
country for which she worked. She was their
Joan of Arc and they are nation which does
not forget"
But surely, under its present administra-
ton, Germany would never dream of going
to war for woman's sake?
Lempriere shrugged his shoulders. My
dear friend" he said. I'VE do not need to 60
beyond what we can see. You would do the
country which you have served croWnlng
service if you were able to persuade Sylvia
Hume to recross the frontier. At pinch.
Italy would be safe In that case the contents
of this envelope would be useful to you. Italy
is spelling for war but she is not yet ready
for it.

1T is Just word of warning, Besserley,
that is all" Drousson repeated, reaching for
his stick and drawing himself up to his feet.
you have retired, remember. You may pay
visits of courtesy to our high officials, but re-
member that France is military nation. She
acts for herself as she thinks fit and she re-
sents interference, even to the point of death. -
Besserey sighed. The only change l can
see in you, Drousson, he remarked, lis that
you are becoming little long winded. Stay
and have cigar with me"
Drousson did not stay. He made no reply.
He opened the door and closed it again after
him with care.
Besserley, arriving in Monte Carlo in search
of an Archduchess and one, too, returning to
life of pleasure after many years spent IN the
lonely forests of Austria, gazed for few
seconds almost in stupefaction at the woman
who opened the door to him at the little Pro-
vencal farmhouse of which he had been In
search hidden away in cleft of the noun
tains. She was still beautiful, but in her ex-
preston was great WEAKNESS. She had kept
her figure, but it was wickedly concealed be-
meath the gown of a peasant. There was no
where on her face the slightest signs of any
cosmetic having been used to check the raw
ages of time. There were gray hairs, the
spread of which could obviously have been
checked, amongst the deep chestnut. Her
eyes were still beautiful, but in their depths
was gleam of apprehension. She had opened
the door grudgingly. Their eyes read one
another's secret. She stood on one side for
him to enter.
Samuel Besserley," she murmured, and
he would have known that soft liquid voice
anywhere under any circumstances.
"Sylvia!"
They we're in the great Provencal living
room She sank into chair.
You startled me" she confessed
Besserley, too, seated himself in one OF
those high-backed chairs. He remained
speechless for another moment or two. All
the time his eyes were absorbing her. 1t was
she Beyond doubt, this was she This was
the terrible Sylvia who had cost France many
divisions of her bravest soldiers, the Sylvia
of whom Drousson was in blood-thirsty
search.
"A few questions" he begged. Il have
come here as your friend. 1t is necessary that
we understand one another"
She made an obvious effort to compose
herself. II am ready" she said.
What made you leave Austria? Why have
you come here?"
Il came for my husbands sake she re-
piled. 1T seems to me that we have drawn

the envelope into his pocketbook.
Lempriere glanced at his watch and rose
regetfully to his feet. TO talk of rewards
to you," he said, passing his arm affection
ately through his VISITORS would be an
absurdity. You have already received dis
tinctions at our hands. There is little we have
left to offer. Still, it is great thing to have
country like France your debtor. One never
knows. And there are those old ties, Besserley.
One speaks of them so seldom but they are
there"
In the dining car few nights later Bes-
serey looked with some apprehension at the
crowds of people queuing up for places. His
worst fears were soon realized. tall man,
leaning slightly upon stick, had paused at
his table and, after casual glance at the re-
served card on the chair opposite, was looking
intently at it's guardian. "Monsteur le

Besserly glanced up quickly. For moment
the stern grizzled face with its hard. clean
cut features, its somewhat prominent Jaw,
seemed strange to him. Then he suddenly
recognized the speaker. Colonel Drousson'

Share bottle of wine with me, Besserley
invited Ito commemorate our meeting.
Il will do so with great pleasure, his COM
panion assented Let our conversation be
of the future.
Besserley smiled You are coming as

Drousson's fingers played for moment
with his gray mustache. Il take few days
hard earned holiday play roulette at Monte
Carlo and little baccarat at Cannes and l
visit some old friends
Dinner was presently served and eaten in
some discomfort The oscillation of the train
increased. The opportunity for conversation
became negligible. Besserley left his place
before the arrival of coffee and with nod
and word of farewell returned to his coupe.
"Drousson," he muttered to himself. Wait
ing for me to ask him questions, too, the old
fox"
He lit cigar and concealed himself behind
a newspaper Nevertheless, the closed door
was presently pushed back He lowered the
paper to find Drousson leaning upon his stick.
Il finish my cigarette with you y yes?"

you are fond of pleasure. For mel am a

You have always done that"
"My memories of you, General" Drousson
continued, ARE curiously distinct. Consider
ing your disposition, you were shrewd and
clever worker. But you had one fault. You
were little over -chivalrous.
Yes"
The memory of that failing is with me,
Besserley, when l venture to give you one
word of warning. Ours is great and power
full country because we do not brook defeat,
because we never forgive and because if evil
is done to US, though we wait for generations,
we pay back the debt. My service, General,

Nothing, neither friendship nor any of the

OUR FIGHTING PRESIDENTS

Our fighting presidents are
known to every schoolboy of the
nation, for who has not heard of
the bravery of Washington, Jack
son, Grant and many others who
took part in the wars of our coun-
try? Few, however, know that John
Adams, our second President, once
fought as a U. S. Marine.
President Adams was a man of
letters, more given to diplomatic or
legislative affairs than to armed
conflict. His keen mind and polit-
ical insight led to his appointment
to many important missions during
our struggle for independence.
Fate led to his taking up arms
when he was aboard the Boston,
bound for France on a diplomatic
mission in 1778, for Captain Tucker
Of the Boston could not resist the
temptation to give battle when he
encountered the heavily armed
British ship Martha.
When the ships neared each 9TH
er the British vessel fired a broad
side, while the marines on the Bos-
ton retaliated with rifle fire. A
shattered yardman knocked Cap
tain Tucker to the deck, and as the
smoke from the British guns rolled
away, he was amazed to see John
Adams calmly sighting his musket
at the enemy.
AS the sea duel became imminent
the future president had borrowed
a musket and had quietly taken
his post beside the sea soldiers.

ger the life of his distinguished
passenger by permitting him to
join in the action.
