"The royal house of Kurutunla de
mands your aid and protection. 1 must
speak to you at once. Be cautious?'
Malcolm Morgan rend the note a sec
ond time, then glanced curiously at His
little woman across the aisle. There
was nothing about ber to suggest the
fantastic. She Was Just a dainty little
old lady, scarcely Ave feet tall, with
whom Father Time had dealt geutly
Now she wns watching him In a flut
ter ot expectation, surely there was
something odd, but Morgan crossed
the aisle.
"How can I sen your he asked ai

glancing appreheuslrely about the car
"I knew you were from Iturutanla. 1
am eh" she lowered her voice
"Ethel, princess of the royal house."
Morgan gave a start Here was a
little woman who claimed connection
with a royal family of fiction, yet gave
no Indication of the Insanity proved
by her words. She accepted the atari
as a tribute to her revelation.
"I do not wonder that you start," she
said complacently. "You must be fa

miliar with Hurutunla news and know
that I am pursued. Still It Is strange
to find me here In America. 1 am go
ing to my uitH'p, the Trlnce Flarla,
who Is now In Chicago."
There was soiiietblng grotesque iu
this odd Jumble of the Hope story and
the American towns. Morgan gjuuml
apprehensively about the car. There
wa no woman to whom he could
make appeal. There were three In the
sleeper, but Murgau knew the type
only too well. One whs evidently s
traveling Kulexwomiin, since ulie fra
ternized with the olher conimeiX'lul
traveler ill the cur uinl unuli- mites of
the points they olTe)! for her Instnto-!
tion. One was evidently a soubrctte
who vied with the woman drummer
for the attention of the men. The
third was a young woman whose very
face betokened her Incapacity.
He leaned over to the little princess.
"It would be letter," he suggested,
"that no one else should know that you
are a princess. I, too, am going to Chi
cago and will wait upon your com
mands. The others In the car are not
to be trusted, believe me."
"Bless your heart," she fairly beamed
upon him-lt In not always that her
Runitanian subjects yielded this ready
acquiescence "I don't dare reveal my
self to any but a Kurutanlnn. Don't
you see" her voice grew confidential
-"that there Is Black Michael in the
smoker? It woukl never do for him to
realize that I was In this very car
when be came to America on purpose
to destroy me. He thinks that with
me out of the way It would be easy to
marry Flavla. That will never be. I
am determined that she shall marry
Hudolph. That Is why I am forced to
flee my own country."
All that long afternoon Morgan hu
mored her whim. It would never do
to let her proclaim her royalty to the
others. There was not a single son) In
the crowded Chicago sleeper who
would see the pathos of her condition.
Instead she would be made the object
of their Jeers. She was such a dainty
little old lady that he could not bear
the thought of ber being subjected to
ridicule.
He took her In to dinner, paying
proper deference to royalty and show
ing that be appreciated the honor of
dining with one of a race of kings.
After that he played piquet with her
nntll she became sleepy, and It was be
who gave tbe porter an extra tip to
make ber berth down first.
Early the next morning she was In
her seat, smiling and happy, when
Morgan emerged from bis berth. She
beckoned to him. "I slept soundly,"
he said blithely. "From time to time
I wakened to hear th tramp of my
knight's footsteps In the aisle, and I
knew tbat th Princes of Ruratanla
was safely guarded."
Morgan divined that th awakenings
were dne to tbe stop and that her!
knight's footsteps were those of th
porter as he conducted weary travel
era to ihplr berths, but ho smiled atul
SAllI nothing.
All the morning he played her fn
rorlle phiuet with her. mid In a way it
v us a help to him, for it made lilm for
get Unit lie w'tw on his wny to seek the
girl he Uivtl. A few months before It
had heeu his duly im district attorney
lu a town near New York to olilalu the
vouvtctlou of a murderer. It was clear
that the man had committed the crime,
hut a clever lawyer hnd created a feel
ing of sympathy for the criminal, and
Irene Ostermnn hnd coldly told hi in
that she could never accept the lovt
of a man who had sent au Innoceut
fellow being to the gallows.
She had left for Omasa the follow
Ing morning and had not even given
him a elm m-e to plead his cauno, lie
was on lil way there now In the ho
that a change of scene would enuhli
him to make a more successful appeal
to her reason.
The breaking of the engngenient had
been a terrible shock to him, and bet
highness from Iturutiiiilu ut last en
abled hi in to partially forget the pain
that was gnawing at his benrt.

and hut Chicago address. "We Kuril
tanlans are so few," she protested
"that I am unwilling to lose sight of
such a faithful subject." And unwlll
fugly he bad given her his card with
the Illsmarck hastily penciled In tin
corner. She would forget before she
had reached her home, he nrgued.
There was a young man at the train
to meet ber. and he was warm In til
thanks to Morgan. The young district
attorney hurried to the hotel that wa
to break his travel. Three hour Intel
a Ml boy knocked upon his door and
bunded lu a dainty note.
"The Trlneess Flavtii It read in
unfamiliar hand, "would to glad t
welcome to Chicago the traveler from
'Rurutnnia,' who by his courtesy Im-
done so much to help the Trlncc
Ethel,' " and there followed an addrex
of Mlcblgiiu avenue.
From curiosity Morgan determined l
follow the odd experience to the end
and as soon aa he could unpack IiIm
dress suit he called a cab and gave the
address.
Arriving, he was promptly shown
Into the parlor, and In a moment there
entered a woman whose presence cnui
ed Morgan's heart to thrill. With a
cry of "Irener he sprang forward, and
In another moment she was folded
within his arms.
Ten minutes later, when speech whs
possible, she explained that the I'rtii
cess Ethel was her maiden aunt, whose
dementia took the form of the belief
that she was one of the omitted char
sclera In the Hone novel.
"When I heard from Cousin Jack."
she said gently, "of the man who had

A kiss was Ills only answer, but an
eloquent one. So engrossed were tliey
that they failed to hear footsteps until
a thin treble was heard announcing.
"Well. I never suspected that you
