Beverly of Graustark , (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 6 ) secret that aomstalng' Ilk threat a iconipmtes tha message. . 1'riace OaDtiel whi la complete coo ttrol nt gerros and was disposed to llaugti at tlie demnuds ot bla late cap tore. His bolt brother, tbe dethroned JTInco Dantan, was still bldlug lu tha fastnesses ot the bills, protected ly a -small company of nobles, and there -was no hopo that be ever could regain 'bis crown. Gabriel's power over the army was supreme. Tbe general pub tic admired Dantan, but It was helpless In the lace ot circumstances. "But why should Axphaln Book to harass Qraustark at this time?" de manded Beverly Calhoun lu perplex ity and wrath. "I should think the brutes would try to help her." "There Is an element of opposition to tbe course the government Is tak ing," tbe officer Informed her In bis own way, "but It Is greatly In the mi nority. The Axpbalnlans have bated Oraustark since the last war, and the princess despises this American. It Is an open tact that the Duke of Mlzrox leads the opposition to Princess Volga, and she la sure to have him beheaded tf the chance affords. Ho Is friendly to Graustark and baa been agalnBt the policy ot his princess from the start" "I'd like to hug the Duke of Mlxrox," cried Beverly warmly, Tbe officer did not understand her, but Aunt Fanny ,waa scandalized. "Good Lawdl" she muttered to tbe boxes and bags. As the coach rolled deeper and deep r Into the rock shadowed wilderness Beverly Calhoun felt an undentablo sensation of awe creeping over her. Tho brave, impetuous girl bad plunged gayly Into tbe project which now led her Into the deadliest of uncertainties (rlth but little thought of the conse guanoes. The first stage of the journey bv coach bad been good fun. Tbey bnu passed along pleasant roads, through quaint villages and among Intercstlni: people, and progress had been rapid Tbe second stage bad presented rather terrifying prospects, and the third day promised even greater vicissitudes. Looking from the coach windows ou opon the quiet, desolate grandeur ol tier surroundings, poor Beverly began to appreciate how abjectly helpless ami lone she was. Her companions were ugly, vicious looking men, any one of whom could Inspire terror by a look. She bad Intrusted herself to tbe care of these strange creatures In tbe mo ment of Inspired courage, and now sbe .was constrained to regret her action. True, they had proved worthy pro tectors as far as tbey bad gone, but the very possibilities that lay in their power were appalling, now that she bad time to consider the situation. The officer in charge bad been rec ommended as a trusted servant of the czar; an American consul had secured the escort for her direct from the fron tier patrol authorities. Men high in power had vouched for the integrity of the detachment, but all this was for gotten in tbe mighty solitude of the mountains. She was beginning to fear her escort more than she feared the brigands of the hills. Treachery seemed printed on their backs as they rode ahead of her. The big officer was ever polite and alert, but she was ready to distrust him on the slightest excuse. These men could not help knowing that she was rich, nd It was reasonable for them to sus pect that she carried money and Jewels (with her. In her mind's eye she could picture these traitors rifling her bag:' and boxes In some dark pass, and then there were other horrors that almost petrified ber when she allowed herself to think of them. Here and there the travelers passed by rude cots where dwelt woodmen and mountaineers, and at long Intervals a solitary but picturesque horseman stood aside and gave them tbe road. As the coach penetrated deeper into the gorge signs of human life and actvlty be came fewer. The sun could not send blB light into this Bhadowy tomb of granite. The rattle of the wheels and the clatter of the horses' hoofs sounded like a constant crash of thunder in tin wra of the tender traveler, a dainty morsel among hawks and wolves. There was an unmistakable trciuo; lu her voice when she nt last found heart to ask the officer where they were to spend the night. It was far past noon, and Aunt Fanny had suggested opening the lunch baskets. One of tin guides wsb called back, the leader be ing ns much in tho ilurk ns his charge. "There Is no village within twenty miles," he snjd, "and we must sleep li! the pass." Beverly's voice faltered. "Out here In all tills awful"- Then she caug!:! herself quickly. It came to her sudden ly that she must not lot these men tw that she was apprehensive. Her vole mas a trifle shrill and her eyes glisten ed with a strange new light as sin Went on, changing her tacit completely: "How romantic! I've often wanted t do something like this." The officer looked bewildered am: sold nothing. Aunt Fanny was speech less. Later on, when the lieutenant had one ahead to confer with the guides about the suspicious actions of a small troop of horsemen they had Been, Bev erly confided to the old uegress that she was frightened almost out of her boots, but that she'd die before the men should see a sign of cowardice In a Calhoun. Aunt Fanny was not bo proud and 'Imperious. It was with dlt 'flculty thnt her high strung young mis tress suppressed the wails that had long been under restraint in Aunt Fan ny's huge and turbnlent bosom. "Good Lnwd, Miss Bev'ly, dey'll chop ns all to pieces an' take ouah Jcwl'ry an' money an' clo'es an ev'ything else iwe done got about us. Good Lawd, Uf tu'n back. Miss BerTy- We air,' Igot no mo' show out beah la dese mountains dan a" ' "Bs still. Aunt Fannyl" eommasd!

If we lot on we're aot on bit afraid they'll rwpect us, don't you soe, and, men never barm women whom they respect" "Umph!" gruntsd Aunt Fanny, with exaggerated Irony, "Well, they never dol" maintained Beverly, who was not at all sura about It "And they look like real nice men -honest men, even though tbey have such awful whiskers," "Dey's de wust trash Ah area did see," explodod Aunt Fanny... "BhI Don't let them bear you," whis pered Beverly. In spite of ber terror and perplexity she wus compelled to smile. It waB all so like the farce comedies one sees at the theater. As the officer rode up bis face was pale In the shadowy light of the after uoon, and ha was plainly very nerv ous. "What la the latest news from tho f rout 7" she Inquired cheerfully, "Tbe men refuse to ride on," be ex claimed, speaking rapidly, making It still harder for her to understand. "Our advance guard has met a party ot hunt ers from Axphatn. . Tbey Insist that you 'the fine lady In the coach' are the Princess Tetlve, returning from a se cret visit to St. Petersburg, where you went to plead for assistance from the czar." Beverly Calhoun gasped In astonish ment It was too Incredible to believe. It was actually ludicrous. She laugh ed heartily. "How perfectly absurd." "I am well aware that you are not the Princess Tetlve," be continued em phatically, "but what can I dot The men wo.i't believe me. They swear they have been tricked and are panic Btrlcken over the situation. The hunt ers tell them that the Axphaln author ities, fully aware of the hurried Sight of the princess through these wilds, are preparing to Intercept her. A large detachment of soldiers la already across the Graustark frontier. It la only a question of time before the 'red legs' will be upon them. I have assured them that their beautiful charge la not the princess, but an American girl, and that there Is no mystery about the coach and escort All In vain, The Axphaln guides al ready feel that their heads are on tbe block, while as for the Cossacks, not even my dire threats of tbe awful an gcr of the white czar when he nnd they have disobeyed blB commaud. will move them." "Sneak to your men once more, sir. and promise them big purses of golC when we roach Ganlook. I have no money or valuables with me, but there I can obtain plenty," said Beverly shrewdly thinking It better that they should believe ber to be without funds The cavalcade had halted during this colloquy. All the men were ahead cou- versing sullenly and excitedly with much gesticulation. Tbe driver, a stol Id creature, seemingly indifferent to a!'. that was going on, alone remained at his post The situation, apparently dangerous, was certainly most annoy ing. But If Beverly could have read the mind of that silent figure on the box she would have felt slightly re lleved, for he was Infinitely more anx lous to proceed than even she, but from far different reasons. He was a ltus slan convict who bad escaped on tin way to Siberia. Disguised as a couch man, be was seeking life and safety h Graustark or any out of the way place 'It mattered little to him where the es cort concluded to go. He waB golu; ahead. He dared not go back; he mut. go on. At the end of hulf an hour the offlcu: returned. All hope had gone from h: face. "It Is useless!" he cried out "The guides refuse to proceed. See They are going off with their country men! We are lost without them. I C not know what to do. We cannot tre to Ganlook. I do not know the wuy and the danger Is great. Ah, mndan. here they come! The Cossacks are go Ing back." . As be spoke the surly mutineers wor. riding slowly toward the coach. Ever; man bad his pistol on the high poinme of the saddle. Their faces wore a: Hi, oniu thought was to get away. ugly look. As they passed the officer one of them, pointing ahead of him with his sword, shouted savagely. "Balak!" It was conclusive and convincing. They were deserting her. "Ob, oh, ohl The cowards!" sobbed Beverly In rage and despair. "I must go on! Is It possible that even such men would leave" ghe was Interrupted by the voice oi tba officer, who, raising his cap to her. commanded at the same time the driv er to turn his horses and follow ttr escort to Balak.

With a savage grin, tbe hitherto motionless driver burled some Insult ing remark at the officer, who was al ready following bis men, now In full flight down the roud, and, settling him self firmly on tho seat taking a fresh grip of the reins, he yelled to bis horses, at the same time lushing tbem furiously with bis whip, and started the coach ahead at a fearful pace.

Persons in whose blood the uric acid, which produces the disease, has collected, feel its troublesome pains and aches all the year round. The cause of Rheumatism is a sour, acid condition of the blood, brought about by the blood and distributed to all parts of the body, and Rheumatism gets of the svstem. Rheumatic oersons are almost constant sufferers ; the nagging pains in joints and muscles, are ever present under the most favorable climatic conditions, while exposure, to dampness or an attack of indigestion will often bring on the severer 'symptoms even in warm, pleas ant weather.

Sorle or La Taalloal, raaar SUsslsv and Lula Montsa, It bas been asserted that the grand ballet died wheu the famous Tagllonl retired lu 15-13. At any rate, tbe ballet today Is chiefly a spectacle of dress and colored limelight Except for a very few performors, dancing as a high art has vanished. There Is no one now to set beside La Tagllonl, who wns the queen of the stage. Balzac Introduced her into bis novelB. ICvou Thackeray condescended to notice her and declared enthusias tically lu "Tbe Nowcomes" that (!: "young men of the day will never dim anything so graceful as Tagllonl lu 'La Sylphlde.' " At that tlmo she w:u tbe rage. Stagecoaches uud grey coats were named after her. La Tagllonl owed ber charm to u wonderful lightness uud grace. II01 style was rather Ideal than roui:.,t;v and voluptuous, ns was then tho vouu. The hideous bullet Bklrt of today she never woro, but a skirt that rouched nearly to her ankles. It was one or the principles of her father, who taught her all she loarned of tho art, that the dancer should be modest in dress, lu movement and lu expression. Another famous master, who calle.l himself "Le Dteu de la Douse," always told bis pupils to use all the coquetry tbey could. Vestrls, who founded the famous Vestrls family, wnB nn eighteenth cen tury celebrity and quite remarkably conceited even for a dancer. "There are but three groat mon allve,'.'.he used to say, "myself, the Prussian Fred erick and Voltalro." (It is luterostlii;; to compare Sourhoy'a remark that u male dancer deserves to be ham strung.) That profession of which he was so proud is Indeed an arduous one. Vestrls used to practice for about six hours a dny. A dancer must be ex tremely strong and supple. A curious story is told about Fanny EUssler, a Germau dancer with coal black hair, which Illustrates the ex treme muscular strength a dancer re quires. She waB crossing to America when 'she entered her cabin one day and discovered a thief abstracting tbe Jewel case which she kept hidden un der ber pillow. Before he could attack her she planted her foot full In his chest and killed blm on the spot It is curious that no Englishwoman has ever achieved supreme success as a dancer. It 1b possible, as foreigners aBsert, that they lack the dramatic gift.

Tho "ruts," tho be ginners at the Paris Opera, are arti cled for five years, and thou, unlcs. they have danced from their cradle. they cannot hope to attain tbe first rank. Another quality essential to the great dancer is iiiiinlto patience. The only English dancer who over gave promise of attaluius tho front rank failed iu this respect, l.jla Monies wub the somewhat foreign name she had tukeu.
