Well, you know, If the worst conies to the worst and they still want a king. I'll be there." Cable, who had been drumming Im patiently with his fingers on the table, moved over suddenly and looked at Norheys. I do not know whether he actually thought that it might still be possible to make Norheys king o f Lys- tria. I f the thing were possible. It wonld certainly he a way out of a nasty situation. Even tbe Balkan war might he averted. " I always said," said Norheys, "that I'd no objection to being a king, so long as I didn't have to murry that princess. Well, that part o f the pro gram Is off now. But If the Lystrians don't care for the chauffeur, why not pop me and Viola on to a couple of thrones? Not that we want to hoof out the princess.

But T royte Is a serious statesman. He could not possibly ¡lave regarded Norheys’ plan as worthy o f considera tion. Nevertheless, be agreed to take the yonng couple to Lystrla. It was Viola who persuaded him. She left her seat, went over to him In the prettiest possible manner, put one arm round hU neck and set her disagreeable to me, for I am a man of sociable disposition with a very strongly formed habit of conversation. 1 could not blame Norheys and his wife for deserting ns. They were on a honeymoon and It was naturul enough Ibat they should shut them selves up together In their own com partment. I did not see (hem, except at meals in Ihe restaurant car. Troyle and Cable Ignored me. Cable resented my being with the party at all and kept Troyte to himself In another compartment on pretense of talking busineas. They could not talk busi ness in any useful way because they did not know what had happened In Lystrla. All they could do was to specu late. and I might have been useful to them there. In fact, my guess about Emily's curate was the only good guess any o f them made. Casimlr, Count Istvan, who lives somewhere In that neighborhood, got Into the train at Charlottenherg sta tion. Just ontslde Berlin. King Wladls- laws Joined us at tbe Frledrlcbatrasae station further on. There Is not enough room for four people to be comfortable In a wagon-lit’s compart ment. so Cable, who. does not care what he spends, engaged an ordinary first-class compartment farther down the train. There the four, Troyte. ( V i e , Casimlr and the king, settled down. I was not Invited to Join tbe party. Neither the king nor Casimlr could cross the frontier Into Megalla. but they were willing to go as far as Bres lau and tell all they knew about what had happened. Unfortunately, they did not know- very much. Casimlr explained that he had all along bellwe<] Tommy to be the Lord Norheys. He had regarded the "R ev erend Thomas A. N orreys'" passport as a clever trick Intended to deceive Von Stelnveldt and the Germans while conveying to Iijra the news that I ..r.l VnebaKS ,. rriv u-1 in ULsMBlia plan, muon more Ingenious than any thing Troyte or Cable had thought of. It did make Casimlr certain that Lord Norheys had arrived. It would, ap parently, have deceived Von Steln veldt and bis police If their suspicions had not been awakened by what hap pened In the Mascotte the night after Tommy's arrivaL Von Stelnveldt heard all about that from one of his spy waiters. The king also believed that Tommy was Lord Norheys; but he understood the passport differently. His view was that Norheys pretended to be a curate In order to clear himself of tbe charge of being entangled with Miss Temple. Here he expressed the great est desire to see Viola, and It was with the utmost difficulty that Troyte kept him from wandering along the train to look for Norheys' compart ment. He said that he had particu larly admired the way in which Lord Norheys had kept up his pretense, even acting the part of a curate when "Do Take Us.” She Said. "W e Want there was no real need for It. to Go Most Awfully, and I Ought Then came the question o f who Rev. to Have a Honeymoon, Oughtn’t I?” Thomas A. Norreys really was. The cheek quite close to his. "D o take king did not know. Nor did Casimlr. us." she said. "W e want to go most Casimlr could tell exactly what was on the passport, and the king repeated awfully, and I ought to huve a honey all that Tommy had said about him moon, oughtn't I?” Troyte picked up the telephone re self. But that got them no further. They had to send for me. Cable was ceiver again. •'Hullo!” he said. “ Yes. Foreign unwilling to do so; but Troyte Insist office. Lord Edmund Troyte speaking ed.
