But tbe aubaiiadur at a wblipered i word from a servant bad already pot-, tered out of tbe room as fait as bl somewhat ahsky old lens would carry blm, and tbo voluble Nlih ran along la bli wake. A commotion enept through the scattered groups In the foycr-a mur mur, a ruMle, a whisper that resolved itself at last Into tho excited phrases: "llic widow has arrived!" 'Twenty millions and unincumbered!" "Widow of Ksdona, tbe animated money bag!" "A Monte C'rlato fortuno fur soma lucky man!" "Hir name Is Bonis Ba dowa; twenty millions red hair, too. but a beauty!" "Twenty mllllona!" "Tbe Merry Widow!" Down tbe atalrway from the dresa tng rooms and Into tbe aalon awept a woman-young, beautiful, vivacious. A light of mischief danced In her great dark eye. ' iter tnaasei of auburn hair ihone like au aureole above ber rather pale, delicate face. About ber hovered a half score of gallants, all vying for ' a word, a look, from tbe beauty (and fortune) of the I'arls season. Two men-tbo Marquis of Catcada and the Count de 8t. Brioche were lucky enough to claim for a moment or two her attention. ) "No, nor Bonta waa aaylng In pro test. "At borne. In Morsovla, men don't make aucb pretty speeches. Courtship there Is very primitive and marriage ta for life. When a man makes love to another's wife, be la promptly shot When a wife flirts, ber husband heata ber black and blue a good plan. 'Why not try It In I'arls?" "Deligbtf uir exclaimed Caicada. "Do you know, madame, we have been counting tbo moments until you ap- peered?" I "I can well believe It," assented So nla. "It muit have been just Ilka counting money. i "Ob, madamei" protested tne group, horrified. "Don't I know?" retorted Sonla, a Utile bitterly. "It'a alwaya like that People count me like ao much money. If It U coarse for me to say ao, re member I'm a farmer'a daughter and that in my country people call a apade a spade." PopoaT and Natalie came hurriedly in to pay their respects to tbe guest upon whoa Maraovla'a hopes ao depended. At a algn from the ambaaaador the oth ers draw bac,k. "So you were shocking soma of our Parte galtanta?" beamed the ambaaaa dor. "What a child of nature you are!" "You mean," countered Sonla, "that 1 am a peasant dressed up. How I wish sometimes that I were a real peasant again!" "Ah!" chuckled Popoff. "Child of na ture, true child of nature, alwaya remembering the dear old daya on the farm-tho bleating of tbe plga, tbe new laid milk, the tomatoes freshly dug up and all the simple Joys of the coun try! But I want you to meet tonight some of our Marsovlan nobility for Instance, Prince Danllo, a charming young fellow. He'll be hero presently. Danllo la"- But tbe mischief bad died out of Sonla'a ayes. Her face was paler than waa Ita wont, and there wus a stern look aa of pain about tbe daintily chiseled mouth. "I have already met Prince Daullo," ahe aald curtly. "Reallrr cried Popoff. Then, not ing her change of expression, he added rwtth apprehension: "I hope It waa not on one or ms wei daya a charming, lovable youngster tn spite of hls"- "I am not Interested lu hearing about him," broke In Sonla In a curiously level, emotionless voice. "It waa long ago that we met. Ha will have forgot ten me even aa aa 1 have forgotten him. Let ua talk of something else, please." Even Popoff could see something waa seriously amiss. mP iB.0?"118 VAN RIPER BROS. FURNITURE Our goods are new and attractive. ALSO THE PRICES E. W. GILLETT & CO. Bert E.
