The next; instant the girl chases tal meleucholy from her face. "Ton are fond of flowers?" "Yes." she etess, looking at the azalea, which makes Hal blush, "Come end see the gardens," And. she steps out on the terrace, catching up a light straw hat as tate does so. As Ma followa into the garden, he notices that the companion bas crossed the same and stands at the window, with a book in her band. It is a magnificent garden, worthy of the villa. Velvety lawns, set with gilt - tering beds of flowers, whose More aro contrasted with the pure white of mar - lee statues and fountains. It is, in :feta 'essentially an Italian garden, though Hal doesn't know it. The prineens leads him through a mass of garden paths to a nook, made cool and ehady by a grotto of ferns, over which falls the spray of a hidden f omtain. "This is a beautiful garden," he says, in his abrupt fashion. "Your higautal ought to be happy." She had been plucking the ferns grow- ing near her, and looks up, with a tittle smile parting ber lips. "Happy?" she said, as if his words had called up a question in her mind. "Yes, I suppose 1 ant happy. But I am very dull sometimes." "Dull?" says Hal, looking at her Byrn- pathetially out of bis honest eyes. "Yes, very, dull," and she smothers e little sigh. 'There is only papa and Titella—the lady you saw, you know, Papa is always with his books and papers, and Titella—Titello, is busy about the house. Are you never dull?" "Often," he says. "Tell me," she says, in her little in- quisitive manner, which seems so frank and confiding to English Hal, "tell me, what do you do then?" "Oh," says Hal, "I—I—well, I gener- ally go and shoot something, or take my rod, or smoke a pipe." She "There's nothing to shoot here," she says, looking around, "excepting me; but you ean smoke your pipe, if you like." "But I'm not dull now, and I don't want to smoke; shouldn't think of it," says Hal; "and—and Pm very sorry you are ever dull!" She smiles. "I must learn to shoot and smoke, must I not?" He laughs at the thought of a pipe staining those soft, coral lips, and his laugh seems catching, for she laugas, too. As she does so the companion conies out upon the terrace. Hal looks up, and the princess, follow- ing his glance, turns suddenly grave and' rises. "Will you come and see pa?" sbe says. Hal nods, and offers to take the fish- ing -basket from her hand, but she puts it behind her with the gesture of a child,, "No, I will carry this. They are mine now, you know." Slowly they wind around the garden toward another part of the terrace which surronds the house, and, ascending the steps, stop at a window, which is closed, . and has the curtains drawn. 1 Hal gave the man his card, and syhile Then the princess, with her hand on catory gesture o t e white hands, you . it was caeried in, amused himself looking the window, looks around at him. ft have not tried the best of the German . wines—Johannisberg, now." 1. at the tall palms standing in pots el "Will you tell me your name again?
