Just a8 he reached the fountain midway een the two obelisks a clock n M“’“l‘f;’kam hour of 1. e a shudder came ov: the young man. Perhaps it was tt: loneliness, for the Place was deserted —that 1s, at the moment, since this central location can never be said to be deserted for any length of time even in the small hours of morning. Perbaps it was the contrast between bis surroundings and the gay scenes be had just left, a contrast heightened by his knowledge of the history of the location where stood the fountain he Was passing. He stopped and mused. During the reign of terror where the fountain is now stood the gulllotine. Every day a succession of carts brought victims to this Moloch of the Tevolution. At first the nobility of ! France wero in process of removal; then when factions became jealous of each other the party in power removed those who were its rivals. For awhile Robespierre was virtual dictator and decided who should be executed. The leaders of the Conservatives, the Girondists, he sent after those of royal ! and noble blood. Then a new faction galned the supreme power and sent Robespierre after the Girondists. While Gondwin mused there was no sound but distant cab rattling over the stones or a shout of laughter from # cafe on the Chumps Elysees. And even then came at intervals the thought that he was alone. But suddenly he caught sight through the spray of the fountain of a woman's figure on the other side of the basin. Impelled by curiosity he moved around to where she stood. What was his astonishment to see one whose features, indicated that she was a lady. Her dress also bespoke her rank. The costume was in the directoire style which was in vogne some dme ago. She was very pale. It has never been permitted to Pari- sian ladies to be on the street alone even at midday, As for a lady being out unattended at 1 o'clock in the morn- ing. such a thing was unthinkable, and vet the American was positive that the person e saw on the other side of the foungnin was a lady, Her fea- turés were FTench. As 6 Her costume, though it was in a style in vogue a bundred years hefore—a style that had been revived—the collar and cap were those worn at the close of the eight- eenth century. “Madam exclaimed Goodwin “surely you have heen, through some error on the part of your escort or your conchman, caught out alone.

Goodwin was at a loss to know what to do—whether to call the police or & cab. “There are only three voices now,” continued the woman. *“‘Mine was one of the first to be stitled.” “Won't you tnke my arm, madame?* sald Goodwin. extending it. “The night 18 chill, and you do not seem to be sufficiently clad.” “Now there are two.” was the only reply. “I beg of you come with me—for a little way - to the Rue Rivoll We will find a cab there.” “Now there Is oue.” Goodwin was badly upset. Alone in Paris with a crazy woman between 1 and 2 In the morning, be would have left her, but this would be desertion. He could not bring bimself to do It. Fortunately a cab came across the bridge. When it arrived opposite the fountain he ran out to call the driver. As he started the lady be was leaving -u. " “Now, there is none. The cabman stopped, and his cab was empty. Goodwin returned for the She was gone. All in a shiver, Goodwin got into the cab and was driven to his hotel. The next afternoon he walked out through the Place de la Concorde. The day was bright und the space was au- ed with carriages and pedestrians. He stood by the fountain on the exact spot where be had stood the night before. Had be been dreaming? Three years later he was reading & history of the Girondists.

And the princess that heart could “Oh, you mean me,” she breathed, and her eyes were shining; “tell me some more, nurse.” “And one day the prince learned that a wicked wizard had put a charm on him, and that he would have to leave the beautiful castle and go and live in a little, little hut, 'way back in the woods, and that he would have to work until his hands were hard and his back was bent.

And she wondered If the prince loved any one else, and she wondered and wondered until she fell sick, and—and the prince, looking at her, thought his heart would break, but still he didn’t dare to tell her about the hut in the forest.” I had finished tying the pink rib- bons and she reached up and caught “Nurse, nurse,” she gasped, “was that all—oh, was that all—that he had just lost his old money ?”" And when I told her the truth she cried in my arms. Then she sat up and made me put on her prettiest pink komono, and she walked weakly from the bed to a big chair in the window. And when he came in she held out her hand to him. “Oh,” she cried, “I'm going to get strong right away—and then we’ll go and live in the hut in the forest.” He looked at her with puzzled eyes, 1 interposed. “It will be the happy until I said: “I told her a fairy tale | about the prince who had to take the PUBLIC SALE We will sell at Public Auction on the Premises of A.
