fore, and though we knew who he
must be, he could only guess who we
were. He turned to Janet Church for
help.
Janet knew me and introduced m&
I presented the rest of the party. At
least. I began the presentation. I had
only got as far as Norheys when the
princess interrupted me. She rushed
forward, threw her arms around Vlo-
la’s neck and kissed her heartily on
both cheeks.
" I know you’re Miss Temple,” she
said.
“ Lady Norheys.” I corrected.
“ You may call her Viola Temple If
you like,” said Norheys. “ What I al
ways say is: When anybody has a
name which everybody else knows
them by, why not call them It? That's
what I said when fellows began fo

Norheys, don’t you know? I dure
say now,” he said to Tommy, “ that
you’ve often heard of me as Bunny
Troyte, and scarcely know me as Nor-
heys. IPs just the same with Viola,
only, of course, more so, on account
of her being much more famous than
any of the rest of us.”
He was undoubtedly right concern-
ing the “ fame” which Miss Viola Tem-
pie, as one of the most popular stage
dancers of tiie British metropolis, had
enjoyed. That fact had been at the
bottom of Lord Troyte’s scheme of the
Lystrlan marriage. With the cool, far-
seeing wisdom for which he was noted
he had seen in the union a double
purpose, the saving of his nephew
from an undesirable alliance with a
dancer who did not happen to be a
princess, and the exploitation of the
Lystrlan oil fields in the interests of
England. He had once remarked to
me, when we both felt that we must
“ save” Norheys from Viola Temple;
“ I f England Is to hold her place in
the van of the world’s progress she
must control an adequate supply of oil.
With an English king on the throne of
Lystria and an English company at
work in the oil fields—”
Troyte is a great statesman. Only
a great statesman could or would say
a thing like that. Only a sincerely
patriotic man could have conceived
such a scheme.
The princess, one arm still around
Viola’s neck, cooed into her ear:
“ I ’m so glad you’ve got him safe.
I wouldn’t have taken him from you
for anything. And now I ’m married,
too. Isn’t it splendid? And only for
your beautiful letter perhaps neither
ever would have been.”
“ I should like,” said Troyte with dig
nity, “ to have some conversation with
the patriarch.”
The patriarch, It seemed, wanted
to have some conversation with
Troyte. He had been pushing his way
through the excited nobles while the
princess was kissing Viola. As soon
as he had recured a place for himself
in the iron i row. he made a speech.
