I much as the tiniest part of " said Yetive, recalling an-1 strous eavesdropping. "I am , ler than when Baldos first I err you. W'e were quite a ehlnd Count Marlanx, I as sure yon." "Then he beard something?" ashed Beverly anxiously. "He has been in a detestable mood ever since we rejoined him. Could be bave beard anything disagreeable?" "No: on the contrary. It was quite agreeable." All this time Baldos was standing at attention a few paces off, a model sol dier despite the angry shifting of his black eyes. He saw that they had been caught In a most unfortunate position. No amount of explaining could remove the Impression that bad been forced upon the witnesses, voluntary or in voluntary, as the case might be. Bal dos could do nothing to help her, while she was compelled to face the suspi cions of her best friends. At best It could be considered nothing short of a clandestine meeting, the consequences of which she must suffer, not he. In his heated brain be was beginning to picture scandal with all the disgusting details that grow out of evil misrepre sentation. Count Halfout separated himself from the group of three und advanced to the sedan chair. Marlanx and Dan gloss were arguing earnestly In low tones. "Shall we return, your highness?" asked Halfout, addressing both with one of his rarest smiles. "If 1 remem ber aright, we were to dine eu fanillle tonight, and it is well upon the hour. Besides, Count Marlanx is a little dis tressed by your abseutmiudeduess, Miss Beverly, aud I funcy he is eager to have it out with you." "My absentmlndedness? What Is It that I have forgotten?" asked Beverly, puckering her brow. "That's the trouble, dear," said Ye tive. "You forgot your promise to teach him how to play that awful game call ed poker. He has waited for you at the castle since 6 o'clock. It is now 8. Is it any wonder that be led the searching party? He has been on nettles for an hour and a half." "Goodness, I'll wager he's In a tem per!" exclaimed Beverly, with no re morse, but some apprehension. "It would be wisdom to apologize to him," suggested Yetive, and her uncle nodded earnestly. "All right I think I can get him Into good humor without half trying. Oh, Count Marlanx! Come here, please. You aren't angry with me, are you? Wasn't it awful for me to run away and leave you to play solitaire Instead of poker? But, don't you know, I was so wretchedly tired after the ride, and I knew you wouldn't mind If I" and so she ran glibly on, completely fore stalling him, to the secret amusement of the others. Nevertheless, she was nervous and embarrassed over the sit uation. There was every reason to fear that the Iron Count hud heard and seen enough to form a pretty good opin ion of what had pussed between her self and Baldos In this remote corner of the park. A deep sense of shame was taking possession of her. Marlanx, smiling significantly, looked Into her brave little face and permit ted her to talk on until she had run out of breath and composure. Then he bowed with exaggerated gallantry and Informed her that he was hers to com mand and that It was not for him to forgive, but to accept whatever was her gracious pleusure. He called upon the chair licarors, and they took up their burden. Beverly promptlychanged her mind and concluded to walk to the castle. And so they started off, the chair going ahead as If out of com mission forever. Despite her efforts to do so the American girl feeling very much abused, by the way was unsuccessful In the attempt to keep the prlucess at her side. Yetive delib erately walked ahead with Halfont and Dangloss. It seemed to Beverly that they walked unnecessarily fast and that Marlanx was provokingly slow. Baldos was twenty paces be hind, as was his custom. "Is It neeessnry for me to ask you to double the number of lessons I am to have?" Marlanx asked. He was quite too close to her side to please Beverly. "Can't you learn in one lesson? Most Americans think they know all about poker after the first game." "I am not so quick witted, your high ness." "Far be It from me to accelerate your wits. Count Marlanx. It might not be profitable." "You might profit by losing, yon know," he ventured, leaning still clos er. "Poker Is not the only game of chance. It was chance that gave me a winning band this evening." "I don't understand." "It shall be my pleasure to teach you In return for Instructions I am to have. I have tried to teuch your ex cellent guard one phase of the game. ' He has not profited, I fear. He has been blind enough to pick a losing band In spite of my advice. It Is the game of hearts." Beverly could not but understand. She shrank away with a shudder. Her wits did not de sert her, however. "I know the game," she said steadily. "One's object Is to cast off all the hearts. I have been very lucky at the game. Count Marlanx." "Uump!" was his ironical comment "Ah. isn't this a night for lovers?" he went on, changing tack suddenly. "To stroll In the shadows, where even the moon Is blind, la a Joy that love alone provides. Come, fair mistress, share this Joy with me." With that bis band closed over her soft arm above the elbow, and she was drawn close to bis side. Beverly's first shock of revulsion was succeeded by the distressing certainty that Bal dos was a helpless witness of this In dignity. She tried to Jerk her arm away, but be held It tight "Release my arm, sir!" she cried, hoarse with passion. "Call your champion, my lady. It will mean his death. I have evidence that will Insure his conviction and ex ecution within an hour. Nothing could save blni. Call blin, I say, and" "I will call blin. Ho is my sworn protector, and I will command him to knock you down If you dou't go away," she flared, stopping decisively. "At his perll"- "Baldos!" she called, without a sec ond's hesitation. The guard came up with a rush Just as Marlanx released her arm and fell away with a mut tered Imprecation. "Your highness!" cried Baldos, who hnd wltnessedeverythlng. "Are you afraid to die?" she demand ed briefly and clearly. "No!" "Tli:it Is all." she said, suddenly calm. I i vri lv wanted to prove It to Count ' " Tact had come to her re :'; :"iortnnely. Like a flash she ! : t :i cmillict between the com . :;' ilif army and a guard could 1 : one result, and that dlsas r t'n- latter. One word from ';' '" ould have ended everything for "Stop I " almost shrieked BtvtrXy. Baldos. She saw through the Iron Count's ruse as If by divine Inspiration and profited where he least expected ber to excel In shrewdness. Marlanx bad deliberately invited the assault by the guard. His object had been to snare Baldos Into his own undoing, and a horrible undoing It would bave been. One blow would bave secured the desired result. Nothing could bave saved the guard who had struck bis superior olficer, but Beverly thought In time. "To die Is easy, your highness. You have but to ask It of me," said Baldos, whose face was white and drawn. "She has no Intention of demanding such a pleasant sacrifice," observed Count Marlanx, covering his failure skillfully. "Later on, perhaps, she may sign your death warrant. I om proud to hear, sir. that a member of my corps has the courage to face the In evitable, even though he be an alien aud unwilling to die on the field of bat tle. You have my compliments, sir. You have been on Irksome duty for several hours and must be fatigued os well os hungry. A soldier suffers many deprivations, not the least of which Is starvation in pursuit of his calling. Mess Is not an unwelcome relief to you after all these arduous hours. You may return to the barracks at once. Tho princess Is under my care for the remainder of the campaign." Baldos looked first at her and then at the sarcastic old general. Yetive and her companions were watting for them at the fountain a hundred yards ahead. "You may go, Baldos," said Beverly In low tones. "I am not fatigued nor" be began eagerly. "Go!" marled Murlanx. "Am I to repeat a command to you? Do you Ig nore the word of your mistress?" There was a significant sneer in the way be said It "MlBtress?" gasped Baldos, his eye blazing, his arm half raised. "Count Marlanx!" Implored Beverly, drawing herself to her full height and staring at him like a wounded thing. "I humbly Implore you not to mlscon itroe the meaning of the term, your highness," said the count affably. "Ah, you have dropped something. Permit oe. It to a note of some description, I 'JUnk."
