He meant the big sign which said “Mother Goose—Her Land’ when Mother Goose was at home, but on the other sido of of which Daddy had printed “Daddy Gander—His Land,” while she was away.

Shall we go in?” The Judge offered his arm with the formal gallant air he could as- sume at will and the other men followed at a discreet \het shimmering gown had a long tail. Mr. Dinwiddie’s eyes seemed to bore into that graceful swaying back, but he was not the man to discuss his hostess until he had left her house, and Clavering could only wonder what conclusions were forming in that avid cynical old brain. The dining-room, Tong and nar- row, was at the back of the hall and extended along the entire width of the large house. Like the hall, it was panelled and dark, an imposing room hung with family portraits, A small table at the end looked like a fairy oasis. It glit- tered and gleamed and the ‘flowers were mauve, matching the tall wand-like candles. “I do hope, Madame Zattiany,” said Mr. Osborne, as he took a seat at her left, “that you won’t suc cumb to the prevailing mania for white, and paint out this beautiful old walnut, Too many of our houses look entirely too sanitary: One feels as if he were about to be shown up to a ward, to be received by a hospital nurse with a warning not to speak too loud.” There was no chill formality in his mien as he bent over his young and beautiful hostess. ’ “Ah, you forget this is Countess Zattiany’s house,” she said, smil- ing. “But J will edmit that te it- “Mr. Dinwiddie made a pretense of sipping his cocktail as the thres taised their glasses to their hostess.” were mine I should make few changes. White was quite a le mode in London long before the war, but, myself, 1 never liked it.” Judge Trent sat opposite his hostess at the round table. She had placed Mr. Dinwiddie and Mr. Osborne on either side of her, smiling at Clavering, “I am sorry I do not know any young ladies,” she said graciously, although there was a twinkle in her eye. “You look rather lonesome.” “Why should he?” growled Din- widdie. “He-is-young and you are young. The rest of up are the ones to feel out of it.” “Not a bit of it! Not a bit of it!” exclaimeg Judge Trent. “You forget that Madame Zattiany has lived in Murope since infancy. She’s talked to elderly statesmen all her life.” “Well, we're not statesmen, the Lord knows.” Dinwiddie could al- ways be relied on to*make the ob- vious retort, thought Clavering, al- ‘though it must be admitted that he was seldom with none at all. “But you must have seen more young men than old during the war, Madame Zattlany. I understand that Mary turned her palace in Buda Pesth into a hospital and that you were her chief assistant.” “That fs quite true, and I had by no means confined myself before that to elderly statesmen; but I had almost forgotten what a young man on his feet looked like before the war finished.
