Under shelter of the fire of conversation, the prince leaned to- ward his companion and reopened their previous discussion. “Do you know,” he began, “I am in- clined to be somewhat disappointed by your lack of enthusiasm in a’ certain direction!" - “I have disappointed many men fn my time,” she replied, “Do you doubt my power, now that I have promised to exercise it?” “Who could?” he replied courteously.

He turned abruptly down Duke street and made his way to St. James’ park. From here he walked slowly eastward. When he reached the Strand, however, the storm in his soul was still unabated.

There .re- mained only the shaded lamps over- hanging the pictures. Not a whisper was heard in the room. John, looking ground him inj astonishment, was conscious only of | the half-suppressed breathing of the men and women who lined the walls, or were still’ standing in little groups at the end of the long hall. Again there came the music, this time merged in; a low but insistent clamor of other in- struments. Then, suddenly, ‘through | door at _the farther end of the room camea dimly seen figure in white.

There was a faint 3pot of color in her cheek. “It was wonderful,” he told her, “I will get you the champagne.” Her lips were parted. She smiled up at him. ; “Go. quickly,” she whispered, “and zome back quickly! I wait for you.” He left the room and passed out again into the picture gallery before he had the least idea where he was. The band was playing a waltz, and people: seemed. suddenly to have bi ‘ome like: puppets In some stran} unreal dream.

John preserved his equanimity. “It is to be presumed,” he murmured, “that you ladies are both free from any present attachment?” and from every. corner, of the apart-; ment. Slender and erect, her arms hanging limply at her sides, without a touch of color in her cheeks or a coil} - of her black hair disarranged, without a sign of heat or disturbance or pas- sion in her face, John found Aida Calavera standing within a few feet “Mademoiselle Calavera has asked me to get her.some champagne,” he an- swered..
