They fell Into an ani- mated conversation, exchanging shaft? of wit that greatly amused those who could understand the language. \You must remember,\ Beverly said in reply to one\ at Ravone's sallies, \that Americans are hot in the least awed by Europe's greatness. It has come to the pass when we call Europe our playground. We now go to Eu- rope as we go to the cifcus or the county fair at- home. It isn't much more trouble, you know, and'we must} see the sights.\ ' \Alas poor Europe!\ he laughed. As he strolled about with her and Can- dace he pointed out certain men to her, asking her to tax her memory in the effort to recall their faces if hot their apparel. She readily recognized in the lean, tired faces the men she had met first at the Inn Of the Hawk and Ra- ven. \They were vagabonds then. Miss Oalhoutt. Nw they are noblemen: Does .the transition startle you?\ \Isn't Baldos among them?\ she ask ed, voicing the query that had been uppermost in her mind s.ince the, mo- ment when she looked down from the galleries and failed to see him. She was wondering bow he would appear in Court costume: \You forget that Baldos is only a ghard,\ he said kindly.' \He is a courtier nevertheless,\ she retorted. She was vaguely disappointed be cause he was biissiug from the'scene of - splendor,. It proved to her that caste bvercaine all else in the rock ribbed' east. The common man, no matter how valiant had no place In such affairs as these. Her pride was Suffering. She was as a queen among the noblest of the realm. As the-wife 6r~Baldos\she would, live In'ailo^Ber world—on the outskirts of this ono of splendor and arrogance. \ A stubborn, defiant little frown-appeared on her brow as she pictured herself in her mind's eye standing afar off with \the man\ Baldos, looking at the opulence she could hot reach. Her impetuous, rebellious little heart was thumping bitterly as she considered tbis'-Bingle phase of the life to come. She was ready to cry out against the injustice Of it all. The little frown was pbr- tentoflg^f deep laid designs; She would :break down this cruel Barrier that' kept Baldos -from the fields over which prejudice alone held sway. Her love for him and her'determlhatloti to be his wife were not In the least dulled by these reflections,. , The doors to the great banquet hall were thrown open at last and In the disorder that, followed she wondered who was t o lead her to the feasting. The Duke of Mlirox claimed the Prin- cess Candace. -••--••••. - \I am to have the honor,\ said some one at her side, and the voice was one she least expected to hear m _• words.
