tim e asking Calypso to m arry you If
necessary. But I don’t expect you’ll
require m ore th an half an hour.”
"O f course, I m ust see her private­
ly,” said Tommy.
“Ah," said the king. “I see your
difficulty. The* aunt of yours."
“ She’s not m j su n t."
“I m eant to say th a t aunt of Lord
Norheys?” said the king. "She looks
as If she’d be a little difficult to get

I’ll m anage It a t once. I’ll tak e Miss
Church off to lunch with me In the

so th a t you and Calypso will have to
lunch later. T hat will give you a
clear hour all to yourselves. You ought
to be able to explain aw ay Miss Tem ­
ple in fa r less than an hour."
Tommy hoped and believed th a t he
would be able to explain to the prin­
cess th a t he w as not Lord Norheys,
if he got a chance of talking to her.
But he remembered the note she had
flung a t him in the Mascotte. It
seemed to him quite likely th a t she
would not allow him to talk to her at
all.
“B ut even If you tak e Miss Church
away,” said Tommy, “will the princess
talk to me?"
“O f course she will," said th e king.
“She’ll love to. She takes a fte r her
mother, and the late queen was al
most passionately fond of talking to
me, especially about Miss Temple—I
mean of course whoever the Miss
Temple happened to be a t the mo­
ment. T he num ber of tim es she talked
to me on th a t subject would amaze
you. And Calypso Is exactly like her
m other in m any ways. I assure you,
my dear boy, w hatever else you may
have to complain of In m arried life,
you’ll never have it to say th a t your
wife won’t talk to you. And the game
thing is tru e of the patriarch."
CHAPTER XIII
The Princess Calypso, It appeared,
was not so fond as her m other had
been of talks on uncom fortable and
em barrassing subjects.
The king took Ja n e t Church away
to the re stau ra n t car. By an exercise
of skill and tac t of which only a man
trained as a king would have been
capable, he left Calypso and Tommy
behind. They w ere safe from Inter­
ruption for an hour. Tommy ought to
have been able to explain his position
to her. He failed, because Calypso
refused to listen to him.
She turned her back on him and
stared out of the window. This was
discouraging, but Tommy was not go­
ing to be defeated by her manner. He
took the corner seat opposite her. Ca­
lypso imm ediately got up and crossed
to the o ther end of the compartm ent.
Tommy did not venture to follow her
the whole way. He sat down in the
middle of the seat opposite to her.
“I hope," he said, “th a t you will al­
low me to explain myself, to tell you
who I am and w hat I’m doing here.
This letter which you w rote to me—”
H e took from his breast pocket the
note which Calypso had throw n to
him In the M ascotte. She was sta r­
ing steadily into the corridor outside,
and she did not tu rn her head ; but
she knew perfectly well w hat Tommy
was talking about.
“I don’t w ant to listen to any ex­
planation,” she said, "and I ’ve noth­
ing to say to you except w hat I said
In th at letter. Qo back to Miss Tem­
ple.”
“But you m ust allow me to explain,”
said Tommy.
Calypso had no answ er to give him
except a m uttered repetition of the
words, “Go back to Miss Temple."
"I m ust say this,” said Tommy. ‘T m
not the man you think I am."
“You’re a very heartless and cruel
man," said Calypso. “If you w eren’t
heartless and cruel, you wouldn’t bs
breaking Mims Tem ple's heart. Why
won’t yon go back to her?"
‘T can’t go back to her. because I’ve
never spoken to her and I don’t know
who she Is.”
’’How can you say s thing like th st
when you’re deserting her?”
Tommy, In his eagerness to be lis­
tened to, had edged his way across the
carriage until he sat exactly opposite
to Calypso. 8he crossed the carriage
again to get away from him and once
more Tommy followed her half way.
"I don't w ant to worry you,” he sold,
“but I tblnk you really ought to lis­
ten to me.”
"You are worrying me. You’re do­
ing worse, you’re persecuting me."
“T he last thing la the world I want
to do ts to annoy you In any way. But
for your own aake aa well aa mine,
and for Lord Norheys’ sake, and for
Mias T em ple's sake you ought to 11»
tea to me.”
“I w o n 't" said Oalypoo. “and If
you're a gentlem an you'll go away."
‘TU go aw ay If you like, a fte r
you've heard w hat I've got to say.”
"I thought all Engllahmen were gen­
tlem en," aald Calypso.
“Not quite all. I’ve m et one or two
who w eren’t And I’m Irish, not Eng­
lish."
‘‘If you won’t go away, I m u st"
said Calypso.
She stood up as she spoke. Intending
to go out Into the corridor. But to do
th a t she would have been forced to
pass quite close to Tommy. H e w as
leaning forw ard In his eagerness to
m ake her listen, so she might have to
touch him us she passed. She hesi­
tated.
“If you like," said Tommy, ‘T il tele­
graph to Miss Tem ple and ask her to
say th at she doesn't know me and
doesn’t want to have anything to do
with me.”
“How can she say that, when she
wrote to me th a t she loved you with
all her heart?"
She begun to push past Tommy.
But he proved th a t he had a gentle­
m an’s consideration for her feelings.
R ather than nllow her to go out Into
a draughty and uncom fortable corri­
dor, he got up and went th ere him­
self. He stayed there smoking unhap­
pily until the king and Jan et Church
came back from the re stau ra n t car.
Then Tommy w ent off and had his
own luncheon. Calypso contented her­
self with a few biscuits and an apple
which Ja n e t Church produced from
her bags. W herever Jan et travels she
alw ays carries biscuits and apples
with her.
The king m ade him self very agree­
able to Ja n e t In the restau ran t car,
and no m onarch In Europe has bet­
te r m anners th an he has. Perhaps he
had never before exerted him self to
be agreeable to a lady of J a n e t's age
and appearance. T he result was ex­
cellent. Ja n e t was pleased and flat­
tered.
"I am so very glad," he said, “th at
you are accompanying my daughter to
Lystrla. I feel th a t I can rely on yon,
on your kindness, your discretion, your
wisdom. W hen all Is said and done,
a young girl cannot have a better
companion than an English lady. My
dear wife w as English."
“I’m Scotch,” said Ja n e t
"My dear wife,” said the king, “w as
half Scotch, and If th ere ’s anything In
the world to be preferred to an Eng­
lish lady as a companion to a young
and Impressionable girl, it Is a Scotch
lady.”
A w aiter flung three dishes of varied
hors d’oeuvres on the table. The
king helped Ja n e t tenderly to a sa r­
dine. an oily slice of tom ato and a
small salted eel. T hen he ordered a
bottle of Burgundy.
"At a tim e like thle—” he said.
"A fter all, m arriage la a g re at occa­
sion In a girl’s life. T he help and ad­
vice of a w ise lady a little older than
herself—you won’t m ind my saying a
little older, will you?”
“I’m fifty-two,” said Jan et, “and not
in the least asham ed of It.”
" i knew you wouldn’t Tie asham ed
of It. I could see th a t a t once. Your
firm mouth, your clear, far-seeing
eyes. Your coin) strong outlook upon
life, your profound idealism—”
Ja n e t is fa r less sensible th an she
looks. She bridled with pleasure at
the king’s compliments. H e filled h e r
glass with Burgundy, and Ja n e t so fa r
forgot herself and her principles as
to sip It w ithout saying th at all con­
tinental w ater Is poison.
"A young girl,” said the king, “Is
apt to tak e exaggerated views of
things which you and I regard a s—
w hat shall I say?—not right, certainly
not right. But Inevitable.”
T he w aiter whisked away J a n e t’s
plate, gave her another and dum ped
an enormous spoonful of om elette on
It. She sipped her Burgundy again.
The klng'B m anner was caressing. The
wine was strong. T he om elette w as
excellent. But It takes m ore than
wine, food and caresses to dull J a n e t’s
conscience.
" If you’re alluding to th at unfortu­
nate young m an's entanglem ent with
a London actress—” she said.
“Young men," said the king, “will
be young men.”
“They ought not to be,” said Ja n e t
firmly.
“However," said the king cheerful­
ly. “I’m not really nervous about Ca­
lypso. She'll get over It a fte r a while.
H er poor dear m other alw ays got over
It a fte r a while."
"Got over w hat?”
“Come now,” said the king, "you
can hardly expect me to anawer that.
Of course you said you were forty-
two, but—"
"Fifty-tw o.” said Janet.
