In the afterudou she went driving lth Princess Yetive and the young Duke of Mizrox, upon whose innocent nd sullicientlv troubled head Blie was 'eaplug secret abuse because of the news he broueht. Later Count Mar 1&W appeared at the castle for his first less..m in Doker. n looked so Bure of himself that Beverly hated him to the Point of desperation. At the same time he was eager to learn how matters ood with Baldos. The count's threat till hung over her head, veiled by Its ridiculous shadow of mercy. She knew nlna well enougfr by this time to feel avlueed that Baldos would have to ccount for his temerity sooner or pr. It was like the cat and the help $s mouse.

The major tte let tcr three week, later found noth Ing In It to warrant the belief that she was ever coming home. He dj ob. serve however, that she had but little use for the army of Graustark and was especially disappointed In the set of men Yetive retained as her private guard. For the life of her Beverly could not have told why she disap proved of the guard In general or In particular, but she was conscious of the fact after the letter was posted that she had said many things that might have been left unwritten. Be sides, It was not Baldos' fault that she could not sleep. It was distinctly her own. He had nothing to do with "I'll bet father will be glad to hear that I am coming home," she said to Yetive after the letter was gone. "Oh, Beverly, dear, I hate to hear of your going," cried the princess. "When did you tell him you'd start?" "Why-oh-er-let me see, when did I say? Dash me, as Mr. Anguish would say, I don't believe I gnve a aate. it seems to me I said that's all." soon; "You don't know how relieved I am," exclaimed Yetive rapturously, and Bev erly was In high dudgeon because of the Implied reflection. "I believe you are In a tltt with Baldos," went on Ye tive airily. "Goodness! now foolish you can be at limes, Yetive!" was what Beverly gave back to her highness the Prlncesa Of Graustark. Late In the evening couriers came In from the Dawsbergen frontier with re ports which created considerable ex citement In castle and army circles. Frlnce Gabriel himself hud been seen in the northern part of his domain, ac companied by a large detachment of picked soldiers. Lorry set out that very night for the frontier, happy In the belief that something worth while was ubout to occur. Geueral Marlunx Issued orders for the Edelweisa army corps to muss beyouu the Boutnern gates of the city the next morning. Commands were nlso sent to the out lying garrisons. There was to lie a geueral movement of troops before the end of the week. Graustark was not to bo caught napping. Long after the departure of Lorry and Anguish the princess sat on the balcony with Beverly and the Count ess Diigninr. They did not talk much. The mission of these venturesome young American husbands was full of dancer. Something in the air had told their wives that the first blows of war were to be struck before they looked ogaln upon the men they loved. "I think we have been betrayed by some one," said Dagiiinr after an al most Interminable silence. Her com panion did nut reply. "The couriers say that Gabriel knows where we ure weakest at the front and that be knows our every movement. Yetive, there ls a spy here after nil." "And that spy lias access to the very heart of our deliberations," added Bev erly pointedly. "I say this In behalf of the man whom you evidently suspect, countess. He could not know these things." "I do not say that he does know, Miss Calhoun, but It Is not beyond rea son that he may be the go-between, the means of transferring Information from the main traitor to the messengers who await outside our walls." 'Oh, I don't believe It!" cried Beverly hotly. "I wonder If these things would have happened If Baldos bad never come to Edelweiss," mused the princess. As though by common Impulse, both of the Graustark women placed their arms aliout Beverly. "It's because we have so much at stake. Beverly, dear," whispered Dag- mnr "Fonrlve mo if I have hurt you." Of course Beverly sobbed a little In the effort to convince them that she did not care whom they accused if he proved to be the right man In the end. Thev left her alone on the balcony. For an hour after midnight she sat there and dreamed. Every one was ready to turn against Baldos. Even she had been harsh toward him, for had she not seen him relegated to the most obnoxious of duties after promts lug him a far different life? And now what was be thinking of her? His de scent from favor had followed upon the disclosures which made plain to each the Identity of the other. No doubt he was attributing his degrada tion In a sense to the fact that she no longer relished his services, having seen a romantic little ideal shattered bv his firm nssertlous. Of course she knew thnt General Marian x was alone Instrumental In assigning him to the unpleasant duty he now observed, but how was Baldos to know thnt she was not the real power behind the Iron Count? , A light drizzle began to fall, cold and disagreeable.

He looked up, but of course could not see her against the dark wall. For a long time he stood motionless be neath the light. She could not help see ing that he was dejected, tired, unhnp. py. His shoulders drooped, and there was a general air of listlessness about the figure which had once been so full of courage and of hope. The post light fell directly upon his face. It was: somber, despondent, strained. He wore the air of a prisoner. Her heart went out to him like a flash. The debonair knight of the black patch was no more. ! In his place there stood a sullen slave to discipline. I "linldos!" she called softly, her voice penetrating the dripping air with the clearness of a bell.

Wondering i what you were thinking of as you stood under the lamp over there." "I was thinking of your highness," he called up softly. "No, no!" she protested. "I, too, was wondering wondering what you were dreaming of as yon slept, for you should be asleep at this hour, your highness, lustead of stand ing out there In the rain." "Baldos," she called down tremulout ly, "you don't like this work, do you?" "It has nothing but darkness in It for me. I never see the light of your eyes. I never feel the" "Sli!

My heart has been sore you never can know how sore. I was disgraced, dismissed, forgotten" "No, no; you were not! You must not suy that. Go away now, Baldos. You will ride with me tomorrow," she cried uervously. "Please go to some place where yon won't get dripping wet." "You forget that I am on guard," he said, with a laugh. "But you are a wise counselor. Is the rain so pleasant to you ?" "I have an umbrella," she protested. "Whit are you doing?" she cried In alarm. He was coming hand over hand up the treliis work that Inclosed the lower veranda. "I am coming to a place where I won't get dripping wet." be called softly. There was a dangerous ring in bis voice, and she drew back in a panic. "You must not!" she cried desperate ly. "Tills Is madness! Go down, sir!" "I am happy enough to tly, but can not. So 1 1. the next best thing I climb to you." His arm was across the stone railing ly this time, and he was panting from t he exertion, not two leet from where she crouched. "Just one minute of heaven before I go back to the shadows of earth. I am happy again. Marlanx told me you had dis missed me. I wonder what he holds In reserve for me. I knew he lied, but It Is not until now that I rejoice. Come, you are to shield me from the rain." "Oh, oh!" she gasped, overwhelmed by his daring passion. "I should die If any one saw you here." Yet she spasmodically extended the umbrella so that It covered him and left her out In the drizzle. "And so should I," resonded he softly. "Listen to me. For hours and hours I have been longing for the dear old bills In which you found me. I wanted to crawl out of Edelweiss and lose myself forever In the rocks and crags. Tonight when you saw me I was trying to say good by to you for ever. I wus trying to make up my mind to desert. I could not endure the new order or tilings, iou uau cast tue off.

Perhaps I dream that l am here beside you so near that I can touch your face but It Is the sweetest of dreams. But for It I should have left Edelweiss weeks ago.
