Mary, being human. felt the pin-
pr'icks. but was glad on the whole
to be rid of them. Those first
weeks of almost girlish pleasure in
what was to her a novel society.
had vanished forever on the night
of her dinner. Scornful and indif-
ferent she might be, but although
they could not kill her youth. they
drove home to her what she had
guessed tn the beginning. that the
society and the companionship of
young people—fashionable young
people, at least-were not for her.
Their conversations. interests. shal-
low mental attitude to life. bored
her. That curious brief period of
mental rejuvenesceuce had been
due to the novelty and excitement
of being in love again. after long
Ind arid years.
And now. Judge Trent had told
her thst she would be free to leave
in a fortnight. She had walked the
three miles from Broad Street with
a buoyant step. and she had vowed
that never. not for any consider»
tion whatever. would she set foot
in America again. Vienna was the
city of her heart as well as of her
future exploits. She would buy the
old Zsttiany pulses from her wid-
owed niece—in-lsw and make it the
most famous rendevoul in Europe.
But of all this nothing to Clsverlng
until they were in the Dolomites.
She rang for her maid and ex-
changed her tweed walking suit for
a tea gown of violet velvet and
snow white chiffpn. with stockings
“The telephone rang. and . . . as
she had expected, it was Cilver-
lag.”
Jill slippers to match. She expect-
ed no one but it was always a de
light to her to be exquisitely and
becomingly dressed Even in the
seclusion of her Hungarian estate
she bad arrayed herself as appro-
priately hr or‘doors. and as fas-
tidiously for the house. as if she
had been under the critical eye of
her world, for dllntlneSl and lux-
Ury were as ingrained as ordinary
cleanliness and refinement. During
the war she had not rebelled at her
hard and unremitting labors. but
she had often indulged in a fleeting
regret for the frequent luxury of.
the bath. the soft caress of delicate
underwear. for charming toilettes;
and she had sometimes scowled at
her white cotton stockings with a
feeling of positive hatred.
Judge Trent. while she was still
In Austria. had sent her a check
for forty thousand dollars Slit
had given half of it to relief organ-
izations in Vienna. and then gone
to Paris and indulged in an orgy of
clothes. She looked back upo: that
wholly feminine reversion when
she had avofded every one she had
ever known. as one of the com-
pletely satisfactory episodes of her
life Even wlth unreszored youth
and beauty. and s soberer choice of
costumes. she would still have ex-
perienced a certain degree of ex.
cited pleasure in adorning herself.
She had always liked the light
treshness of chlntz in her bedroom.
leaving luxury to her bondoir; but
here she had furnished no boudolr:
her stay was to be short. and her
bedroon' was as large as two ordi-
nary rooms. She spent many hours

plicities appealed to her mood. To-
day it was redolent of the lilacs
(Havering had sent her. and through
the open windows came the singing
of birds in the few trees still left in
the old sunset.
She loved comfort as much as
she loved exercise. and after her
careful toilette was finished and
her maid had gone. she settled ber-
Ieif luxuriously in a deep chair be-
fore her desk and opened one of
the drawers. The European mall
bad arrived—yesterday and she had
only glanced through half of it.
But she must read all of than let-
ters today and answer some of
them before the sailing! on Batu»

Mary smiled and hung up the ro-
celver. She would have to let him
return to New York for s time—
posslbly. But herself, she would u
on to Vienna. No doubt about that.
She returned to berletusrs. Those
that required answers she placed
in a separate heap with s peacilsd
note on the back. for she was neat
and methodical; abs even slit the
Lavelopes with a paper-knife that

pose. and the envelopes were drop-
ed at one. into the waste basket.
The contents for the most part
were expected. and related to her

when she had read halfway through
a long letter from Baroness TIIICh

charities. she involuntarily stifl-
cned and sat forward a little.
Several pages of her friend's let
ter were always devoted to busi-
ness. the rest to gossip. In return
Mary enlivened her own letters
with many of her American adven-
tures. although she had made no
mention of Clsverlug.

"The present Government seems

advisory capacity. That means. we

The Government makes no objec-

cause of Austria—under his leader-
