that he meant just what he sniel.
Then Puysieux replied gaily that lie
eii^ld not say the same, that for his
part he was not at all satisfied with
the king.
“And why not, Puysieux?” asked the
king.
“ Why. sire, because although you are
the most honest man in the kingdom
you have failed to keep a promise to
me which you made more than fifty
years argo.”
“How is that?” inquired the monarch,
surprised and mystified.
“How is it? You have a good mem

you cannot have forgotten the circum

heartily, and said that Puysieux should

lie had so clear a claim. This blue rib

A Python Story.
Concerning pythons, the following is
a true story. A young lady in this
country for a long rime resisted her
lover’s entreaties to go out to India
with him as his wife. She always had

materialize the fareff ccene Enid grew
pale and trembled like u wind tossed

Hurried footsteps among the roses
roused her from her reverie at last, and,
turning, she saw her lover speeding to

‘‘Dick!” she cried in welcome, run

terror of some day meeting what site

his best to laugh her fears away, but
without avail. Then he resolved to try
more drastic means. A huge python
was killed in the neighborhood of his

anything about it he ordered the rep

called his wife, telling her to go into

‘‘And lie said”— murmured Enid,

“He said—nothing. That was tho

“Hfe opened the paper and pushed it

last monient she < \ ivi vd her sex’s pre-
rogative and eutertained a caprice. She
would iiave a eempanien h are, a man,
and tfiat her ehoh e piiglit not lie invidi
ous she would draft- the name of the
hare that was to be from among the
hounds that were. Pencils and paper
and a hat were instantly in demand.
‘‘What freaks Eukl has, to be sure!”
said Lady Hr.nstou to her lord as plow-
boys and gentlenv'n alike dropped the
folded papers in the hat Enid held.
“It will be Errir.gton’s business to
cheek them,” growled his lordship.
‘‘Which of the lads is that?” he went
on as a redheaded yokel slouched past
Enid in tho immediate wake of the at
tenuated and mincing Lionel.
‘‘One of Wilson’s new hands, perhaps.
I heard he had several. D ar me, how
Enid docs overdo things, to bo sure!
She’s as white us a ghost. She'll look a
fright tonight.”
And, indeed, as Miss Fits Eoy plunged
her hand into the hot and drew out a
scrap cf paper she turned deathly pale.
Scarcely glancing at it, she said in a
low voice, ‘‘Isaac Olay.”
‘‘Isaac Clay! Who is he?” cried every
one. And tlmn a mighty laugh ros *
from tin 1 merry crowd, and even Enid’s
white lips smiled as the awkward figure
of‘‘Wilson’s uew Land” pushed shyly
to t he front. .
“What a hare! He won’t get to lodge
gates,” laughed every one as the bag of
torn paper was slung across tho lad’s
back.
“Seven minutes’ start!” cried Enid
as she sprang into the saddle and sped
round the angle of the house, with her
companion hare wobbling after her.
And in that time hounds were nftir
her, amid the choirs of the crowd and
sundry minor mishaps. At the lodge
gates Lionel Erriugton, in spite of the
white paper going both ways, turned
sharp to the left.
‘‘Miss Fitz Roy won’t try Bluebell
hill, 1 know,” he called to those behind
him, who were all game for a spin along
the flat Clevely road. For some five
miles the paper track was clear, then
suddenly came to an end.
“It’s a trap, of course,” said Lionel,
who was too warm and was getting
orotis. “HhcTl start it again farther on. ”
But “farther on’-’ there was no wel
come ‘‘spore,” and eight miles from
home hounds had to confess themselves
baffled.
‘‘If Enid tried the hill at all, it must
have biH’n to shake off that lout,” said
Lionel sulkily, turning hack.
“But how did the paper como cn this
read, then?” cried Lady May Saville.
Sin* was a pretty little girl, but Er-
riugton was in too bad a humor to an
swer her. Yet as he pedaled up to Gar-
denhurst or.ee move he forced some
cheerim ss in his voice as he cried,
‘‘Hares have won!”
