SYNOPSIS. John Calhoun becomes secretary of •tate In Tyler's cabinet with the fixed de­ termination to acquire both Texas and Oregon. Nicholas Trist, his secretary, Is sent with a message to the Baroness von RltJS, spy and reputed mistress of the British minister, Pakenham. Trist en­ counters the baroness and assists her In escaping from pursuers. She agre«» to nee Calhoun, and as a pledge that she will tell him what he wants to know re­ garding the Intentions of England toward Mexico, she gives Trist a slipper, the mate of which has been lost. Trist is or­ dered to Montreal on state business, and arranges to be married to F.lizabeth Churchill before departing. The baroness B&ys she will try to prevent the marriage. A drunken congressman, who is assisting Trist in his wedding arrangements, blun­ deringly sends the baroness' clipper to Elisabeth instead of the owner, and the marriage is declared off. Nicholas finds the baroness in Montreal, she having suc­ ceeded, where he failed, in discovering England's intentions regarding Oregon. She tells him the Blipper he had, con­ tained a note from the. Texas attache to Pakenham, saying that if the United States did not annex Texas within 30 days she would lose both Texas and Oregon. Calhoun orders Trist to head a party bound for Oregon. Calhoun excites the jealousy of Senora Yturrlo, and thereby secures the signature of the Texas at­ tache to a treaty of annexation. Nicholas arrives In Oregon. Later the baroness ar­ rives on a British warship. She tells Nicholas that a note she placed in her slipper caused the breaKing off of his marriage, and that she Intends to return to Washington to repair the wrong. Nicholas follows her. He learns on the that Pulk has been cicttcu ttuu Texas annexed, and that there is to be war with Mexico.

Trist breaks Pakenham's key to the baroness' apartments. Pakenham calls for his price, and the baroness refuses to pay. He insults her. She compels him to apologize, holds him up in his true light, and he declares that she is pure as a lily. The treaty is signed by Paken­ ham. The baroness gives the treaty to Calhoun and tellB him she got it for Nicholas. Calhoun Invites the baroness to a diplomatic ball at the White House. CHAPTER XXXVI.--Continued. Beautiful she surely was. Her ball gown was of light golden stuff, and there was a coral wreath upon her hair, and her dancing slippers were of coral hue. There was no more stri­ king figure upon the floor than she. Jewels blazed at her throat and caught here and there the filmy folds of her gown. She was radiant, beautiful, ap­ parently happy. She cam6 mysterious­ ly enough; but I knew that Mr. Cal­ houn's carriage had been sent for her. I learned also that he had waited for her arrival. As I first saw Helena von Ritz, there stood by her side Dr. Samuel Ward, his square and stocky figure not un­ dignified in his dancing dress, the stiff gray mane of his hair waggling after Its custom as he spoke emphatically over something with her. A gruff man. Dr. Ward, but under his gray mane there was a clear brain, and In his broad breast there beat a large and kindly heart. Even as I began to edge my way to­ ward these two, I saw Mr. Calhoun himself approach, tall, gray and thin. lie was very pale that night; and I knew well enough what effort It cost him to attend any of these functions. Yet he bowed with the grace of a younger man and offered the baroness an arm. Then, methinks, all Washing­ ton gasped a bit. Not all Washington knew what had gone forward between these two. Not all Washington knew what that couple meant as they marched in the grand procession that night--what they meant for America. Of all those who saw, I alone under­ stood. So they danced; he y?ith the dig­ nity of his years, she with the grace which was the perfection of dancing, the perfection of courtesy and of dig­ nity also, as though she knew and valued to the full what was offered to her now by John Calhoun. Grave, sweet and sad Helena von Ritz seemed to me that night. She was wholly unconscious of those who looked and whispered. Her face was pale and rapt as that of some devotee. Mr. Polk himself stood apart, and plainy enough saw this little matter go forward. WThen Mr. Calhoun ap­ proached with the Baroness von Ritz upon his arm, Mr. Polk was too much politician to hesitate or to inquire. He knew that it was safe to follow where John Calhoun led! These two con­ versed for a few moments. Thus, I fancy, Helena von Ritz had her first and last acquaintance with one of our politicians to whom fate gave far more than his deserts. It was the fortune of Mr. Polk to gain for this country Texas, California and Oregon --not one of them by desert of his own! My heart has often been bit­ ter when I have recalled that little scene. Politics so unscrupulous can not always have a John Calhoun, a Helena von Ritz, to correct, guard and guide. After this the card of Helena vor Ritz might well enough Indeed been full had she cared further to dance. She exemsed herself gracefully, say­ ing that lifter the honor which had been done her she could not ask more. Still, Washington buzzed; somewhat of Europe as well. That might have been called the triumph of Helena von Ritz. She felt It not. But I could see that she gloried in some other thing. I approached her as soon as pos­ sible. "I am about to go," she said. "Say good-bys to me now, here. We •ball not m«et «galn. Say good by to me now, cfttelrly! My father and I are going t'. I^ave. The treaty for Ore­ gon ist^pared. Now 1 am done. Yea. Tell *atr good-by." "I w%ll not say it," said I. "I can not.'* fSluj smiled at me. Others might s*« toer lips, her smile. I saw what vg« in her eyes. "We must not be ••Irish," said she. "Come, I must go." 'Do not go," J insisted. "Wait." She caught my soeaning. "Surely," she said, "I will stay a little longer for that one thing. Yes, I wish to see her again. Miss Elizabeth Churchill. I hated her. I wish that I might love her now, do you know? Would--would she let me--if she knew?" , 'They say that love Is not possible between women," said I. "For my own part, I wish with you.™ She interrupted with a light tap of her fan upon my arm. "Look, is not that she?" I turned. A little circle of people were bowing before Mr. Polk, who held a sort of levee at one side of the ball. I saw the tall young girl who at the moment swept a graceful curtsey to the president. My heart sprang to my mouth. Tea, it was Elizabeth! Ah, yes, there flamed up on the altar of my heart the one fire, lit long ago for her. So we came now to meet silently, with small show, in such way as to thrill none but our two selves. She, too, had served, and that largely. And my constant altar fire had done its part also, strangely, in all this long coil of large events. Love --ah, true love wliis and rules. It makes our maps. It makes our world. Among all these distinguished men, these beautiful women, she had her own tribute of admiration. I felt rath­ er than saw that she was in some pale filmy green, some crepe of China, with skirts and sleeves looped up with pearls. In her hair were green leaves, simple and sweet and cool. To me sh6 seemed graver, sweeter, than when I last had seen her. I say, my heart came up into my throat. All I could think was that I wanted to take her into my arms. All I did was to stand and stare. My companion was more expert in social maneuvers. She waited until the > crowd had somewhat thinned about the young lady aiiu her escort. I saw now with certain qualms that this latter was none other than my whilom friend Jack Dandridge. For a wonder, he was most unduly sober. of my time, you see. I have proposed half a dozen times more to Miss Eliza­ beth, have I not?" "Has she given you any answer?" I asked him. smiling. "The same answer!" "Jack," said L "I ought to call you out" "Don't," said he. "I don't want to be called out. I am getting fonnd out. That's worse. Well--Miss Elizabeth, may I be the first to congratulate?" "1 am glad," said I. with just a slight trace of severity, "that you have managed again to get into the good graces of Elmhurst. When I last saw you, I was not sure that either of us would ever be Invited there again." "Been there every Sunday regularly since you went away," said Jack. "I am ^ot one of the family in one way, and in another way I am. Honestly, I have tried my best to cut you out. Not that you have not played your game well enough, but there never was a game played so well that some other fellow could not win by coppering it So I coppered everything you did--played It for just the reverse. No go--lost even that way. And I thought you were the most perennial fool of your age and generation." I checked as gently as I could a Joviality which I thought unsuited to the time. "Mr. Dandridge," said I to him, "you know the Baroness von Ritz?" "Certainly! The particeps crlmlnls of our bungled wedding--of .course I know her!" "I only want to say," I remarked, "that the Baroness von Ritz has that little shell clasp now all for her own, and that I have her slipper again, all for my own. So now, we three--no, four--at last understand one another. I have never seen a smile like Elis­ abeth's. f DAINTY TRIMMING MAY EASILY BE DONE AT HOME. \ <y 'She Is Beautiful!" I Heard the Lady Arm Whisper. and he made, as I have said, no bad figure in his finery. He was very merry and Just a trifle loud of speech, but, being very intimate in Mr. Polk's household, he was warmly welcomed by that gentleman and by all around him. "She is beautiful!" 1 heard the lady at my arm whisper. "Is she beautiful to you?" I asked. "Very beautiful!" I heard her catch her breath. "She is good. I wish I could love her. I wish, I wish--" I saw her handB beat together as they did when she was agitated. I turned then to look at her, and what I saw left me silent. "Come," said I at last, "let us go to her." We edged across the floor. When Elizabeth saw me she straightened, a pallor came across her face. It was not her way to betray much of her emotions. If her head was a'trifle more erect, if indeed she paled, she too lacked not in quiet self- possession. She waited, with wide straight eyes fixed upon me. I found myself unable to make much intelli­ gent speech. I turned to see Helena von Ritz gazing with wistful eyes at Elizabetb, and I saw the eyes of Eliza­ beth make some answer. So they spoke some language which I suppose men never will understand--the lan­ guage of one woman to another. I have known few happier moments in my life than that. Perhaps, after all, I caught something of the speech between their eyes. Perhaps not all cheap and cynical maxims are true, at least when applied to noble women. Elizabeth regained her wonted color and more. "I was very wrong in many ways," I heard her whisper. For almost the first time I saw her perturbed. Helena voa Ritz stepped close to her. Amid thrt crash of the reeds and brasses, amid all the broken conversation which swept around us, I knew what she said. Low down in the flounces of the wide embroidered silks, I saw their two hands meet silently, and cling This made me happy. Of course it was Jack Dandridge broke in between us. "Ah!" said he, "you jealous beggar, could you not leave me to be happy for one minute? Have you come V»-fk, a mere heathdn, and proceeded t? monopolize all our ladies. I haw }v€en making the mod do we not? Jack, will you do two things for me?" "All of them but two." "When the Baroness von Rlt* in­ sists on her intention of leaving us-- just at the height Of all our happiness --I want you to hand her to her car­ riage. In the second place, I may need you again--" "Well, what would any one think of that!" said Jack Dandridge. I never knew when these two left us in the crowd. I never said good- by to Helena von Ritz. I did not catch that last look of her eye. I re­ member her as she stood there that night, grave, sweet and sad. I turned to Elizabeth. There In the crash of the reeds and brasses, the rise and fall of the sweet and bitter conversation all around us, was the comedy and the tragedy of life. "Elizabeth," I said to her, "are you not asb&med?" She looked me full in the eye. "No!" she said, and smiled. EPILOGUE. 'Tis the Star Spangled Banner; O, tons may it wave. O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave! •--Francis Scott Key. On the night that Miss Elisabeth Churchill gave me her hand and her heart forever--for which I have not yet ceased to thank Ood--there began the guns of Palo Alto. Later, there came the fields of Monterey, Buena Vista, Cerro Gordo, Contreras, Cheru- busco, Mollno del Rey--at last the guns sounded at the gate of the old City of Mexico itself. Some of that fighting I myself saw; but much of the time I was employed in that man­ ner of special work which had en­ gaged me for the last few years. It was through Mr. Calhoun's agency that I reached a certain importance in these matters; and so I was chosen as the commissioner to negotiate a peace with Mexico. This honor later proved to be s dangerous and questionable one. Gen. Scott wanted no interference of this kind, especially since he knew Mr. Calhoun's Influence in my choice. He thwarted all my attempts to reach the headquarters of the enemy, and did everything he could to secure a peace of his own, at the mouth of the can­ non. I could offer no terms better than Mr. Buchanan, then our sec­ retary of state, had prepared for me, and these were rejected by the Mexi­ can government at last. I was or­ dered by Mr. Polk to state that we had no better terms to offer; and as for myself, I was told to return to Washington. At that time I could not make my way out through the llneB, nor, in truth, did I much care to do so. A certain event not written In his­ tory influenced me to remain for a time at the little village of Gaudalupe Hidalgo. Here, in short. I received word from a lady whom I had for­ merly known, none less than Senora Yturrlo, once a member of the Mexi­ can legation at Washington. True to her record, she had again reached in­ fluential position in her country, using methods of her own. She told me now to pay no attention to what had been reported by Mexico. In fact, I was approached again by the Mexican commissioners, introduced by her! What was done then is history. We signed then and there the peace of Gaudalupe Hidalgo, in accordance with the terms originally given me by our secretary of state. So, after all, Calhoun's kindness to a woman in distress was not lost; and so, after all, he unwittingly helped in the end­ ing of the war he never wished be­ gun- Meantime, I had been recalled to Washington, but did not know the nature of that recall. When at last I arrived there I found myself disgraced and "discredited. My actions were re­ pudiated by the administration. I my­ self was dismissed from the service without pay--sad enough blow for a young man who had been married less than a year. Mr. Polk's jealousy of John Calhoun was not the only cause of this. Cal­ houn's prophecy was right. Yet. none the le^s, after his usual fashion, he was not averse to receiving such credit as he could. He put the responsibility of the treaty upon the senate! It was debated hotly there for some weeks, and at last, much to his surprise and my gratification, it was ratified! The north, which Mhd' opposed this Mexican war--that same war which later led Inevitably to the Civil War now found itself unable to say ipuch against the great additions td our domain which the treaty had secured. We paid fifteen millions, in addition to our territorial indemnity claim, and we got a realm whose wealth could not be computed. So much, it must be owned, did fortune do for that singular favorite, Mr. Polk. And, curiously enough, the smoke had hardly cleared from Palo Alto field before Abraham Lincoln, a young member In the house of congress, was introducing a resolution which asked the marking ef "the spot where that outrage was committed." Perhaps it was an outrage. Many still hold It so. But let us reflect what would have been Lincoln's life had matters not gone just as they did.

Peally No Task at All to Turn Out Most Effective Ornamentation for AMft^Cinds of Pretty Bou­ doir Baskets. Dainty in color and workmanship' are the little baskets that depend on their trimming of ribbon flowers for the delicate effects for which you must pay a pretty price if you cannot make, them. But you can! So buy your ribbon in pale pink, old rose, moss green and the soft yellows. Purchase little baskets of fire reed or sweet grass and then follow directions. For the preliminary step in rose- making. take a piece of narrow ribbon and fold it in the center as you need it. Over your finger roll the end and sew at the lower edge. Keep up this rolling process until the flower Is the slse that you wish. When making leaves, gather the ribbon at one end so that the pointed effect can be easily obtained. The narrow green ribbon twisred forms an effective stem. After making a number of roses of different sires and a supply of leaves, A serpentine line of tiny ribbon ends, made of baby ribbon, decorates the straw case. A straight line of flowers twines over the strap handle. Green silk is used for the shirred top, al­ though any serviceable figured silk v. ill be just as attractive. The fittings of this basket are in pink the same shade as the flowers on the .outside. Roses are used on the cover of an oblong shape. They also appear in § w apply them by strong thread to the basket to be decorated. The little French basket shows a line of rose­ buds around the base and a cluster of flowers and leaves at one side. The high handle is wrapped with green ribbon tied in a bow at the side. On a little sewing basket with the silk top roses are used In another way. groups cf three at each side. Dark green ribbon is strung through tfcs straw and decorates the handle. A rose with green leaves is attached to the top of the handle. This shape is always procurable and can be changed completely in effect by the addition of ribbon flowers. A rose in a circle of leaves is used on a round flfat basket. Small buds of ribbon are attached to green stems and hang from the handle. The bas­ ket Is lined with green silk stitched in pink or yellow to repeat the color of the flowers. On another little suggestion there is a Vandyke effect of ribbon. Both up­ per and lower rims are wound with ribbon. Large roses are surrounded by ribbon leaves. They are placed at the lower ribbon points on the basket. Perhaps the exquisite work of the fmpire days in France is convincing proof of the charm of ribbon-trimmed baskets and bags. They are beautiful e&amples of handiwork, and In the re­ turn ot this style of decoration all women can rejoice, for It can be done at home.

Beyond the all-important advent of the trouser skirt no fundamental changes, and few even of a second­ ary order, have been made in styles. Skirts are no wider and some of the modes are narrower than ever. Pos­ sibilities, however, are held out of their being rendered less inconvenient and dangerous by a plait or two hid­ den beneath an overlapping breadth and other similar devices. Coats are almost invariably short, but they con­ tinue to set cloae to the hips, while not made to tighten in at the waist. Empire styles of waist prevail, the skirts coming up high and both cos­ tumes and dresses always belted in about the natural waist, often right under the bust. Many of the smart dresses have trains, but such an addi­ tion is not considered obligatory by any means and dresses without them are rcckcncu quite as smart, jl rsiua are always narrow--a large percent­ age do not exceed in importance a prolonged panel. Slight modifications have been made in sleeves. The fash­ ion of cutting in one piece with the shoulder no longer reigns supreme. Half long and three-quarter long sleeves are cut slightly wider and all sorts very straight. Boleros have have been revived, but as part of tha costume or dress bodice, not as sepa­ rate garments. Wide collars are retain­ ed, but revers enjoy less favor and are either omitted or rudimentary. New Slippers. Among the new shoes and slippers the latest sre those of natural colored linen. A preparation is sold for clean­ ing these, but they may be worn a great many times before they show a soiled appearance. These would be pretty with the white suit, but with a frock of the same ecru shade as the slippers the effect would be better The newer Windsor ties which are so much in use now that the sailor collar is having sush a vogue have a border either of harmonizing Persian or black and wh'te stripes on the ends.

Good Dressmaking Impossible if the First Preliminary Be in Any Way Neglected. The proof of good dressmak.ng is In good cutting. If a dress be well cut you will have no trouble at all about putting it together. These few bints from an experienced dressmaker may, j therefore, be of service to the am ateurs among readers. When you are cutting out a skirt al- wtfys allow plenty of turning around the waist and hips, and remember that if jour hips are large in proportion to your waist it is best to get a pattern a couple of lncbes larger than the waist rather than one that Just fits. It is easy then to take the goods in at the waist if the pattern is too large at this place. When you cutting a striped skirt remember t'aat even though you may be told on the pattern to place one side to a selvedge it is advisable to use rather your own common sense and, as a rule at least, to cut each side slightly on the bias.

After all, it matters littl whether or not anything is attache to the end of the decorative lorgnett chain, as its apparent purpose is hie den in the pocket.

Many have several different semi precious stones mounted la odd shapes, while others are more conservative in pearl decoration. done the joining place is not nearly so noticeable as If one side is on the bias and the other on the straight. Pefure cutting out sleeves always double your material and cut the two together. Then you are bound to cut them right and they will match prop er ly. If the material be striped see that the stripes come directly over one another. Pin the material to make sure, as nothing looks worse than two sleeves, the stripes in one of which ilo not match those in the other.
