HE gardens of Mme. Sonia Sa-
dowa's villa, just outside Paris,
were gayly decorated for a
law'ii fete. The grounds were
dotted w ith laughing groups of bright
ly dressed men and women, lor Sonia
had particularly requested that all her
Marsovian guests wear their pictur
esque nutiva costume, and the result
was a veritable kaleidoscopic carnival
of color, a perfect riot of gorgeous
hues and striking figures.
Ambassador Popoff. his long, lean
figure draped in vivid green, was pac
ing the alleys of the garden near the
entrance gate, pausing nervously now
and again to scan late arrivals in
s' .a h of some one. At length he de
scried the man he sought. Nish was
just bustling into the grounds, and the
ambassador at once beckoned to him
“Now, then, Mr. Nish,” cried Popoff
as soon as the little dork had sham-

think, sir. I can detect love when I
see it. And fr *m the way De Jolidon
looks at the widow why. man, I don’t
know a single thing that doesn’t point
toward his being in love with her.

“If 1 may say so. your excellency,”
put in Nish, shuffling nervously, “I
think I could tell you of a ‘single’ tiling,
or, rather.” he added, chuckling, “when
I say ’sing 1 ! I inc 'u ’in ’rried.’”
“Mr. Nidi." interrupted Popoff, "if
you can stop wriggling around like an
inebriated centiped long enough to
talk plainly, will you do me the honor
to put your blitherings into plain
words V"
“Well, -.our excellency.” stammered
Nish, “1 iiappeu to know M. de Joli
don is already head over heels in love
with a lady who has a husband. He”—
“Mr. Nish.” thundered Popoff, “you
are demeaning yourself to the con
temptible act of talking scandal! Are
you aware of that, Mr. Nish? If so,
go on talking it and tell me who she
is.”
“You fool!” whispered Danllo in
Nish’s ear. "Everybody but the am
bassador himself knows it is Mme.
Popoff whom De Jolidon loves. Be
careful!”
“Well. Mr. Nish,” repeated Popoff
majestically as he eyed the squirming
clerk with lofty majesty, "I’m wait-
wake of hks chief. “I’d like to think so.
It—it would make it less exclusive,
less of a monopoly. And to think his
excellency never recognized his own
wife's fan! Where ignorance is bliss
why read up on divorce laws?”

Danilo was turning away when a voice
behind him called mockingly:
“Still in retreat? So you are afraid
if me!”
Whirling about, the prince faced
Sonia. She was bewitchingly pretty in
the black and gold Marsovian dress
that snowed to fullest advantage every
willowy line of her figure.
“I’m not retreating,'' he contradicted,
“only skirmishing in light cavalry
when I'm married I shall live in Paris.”
“I thought you were more patriotic.”
he sighed. “It seems hard that you
should turn your back on your native
land, marry a Frenchman and settle
here."
“Yet it is what I have decided.” she
answered. "This is probably the last
time I shall wear our native costume
or dance our wild national dances. To
day’s fete is a sort of farewell to old
times.”
“No: our dances and costumes would
not appeal to a Frenchman. Who is
it you are going t,o marry?"
“The engagement isn’t announced
yet,” she evaded.
“Then.” he returned, with a shrug
“I suppose I shall never know

“But why?” she asked in wonder.
"For my own amusement; that's all.”
“You—you don't happen to be in love

her tone.
"Certainly not!” he retorted, with
suspicious promptitude.
