All petty din’erences between Lady Deppingham and Drusilla Browne. and they were quite common now. were forgotten in the whirlwind of relief that came with the strangers from the yacht. Mrs Browne’s good looking. eager husband reveled in the prospect of this de- lirious night, this almost Arabian night. He was swept oi! his feet by the radiant princess. the Scheberezade of his boyhood dreams. His biithe heart thumped as it had not done since he was a boy. The Duchess of N. and the handsome Marchioness of 8. came into his tired. hungry life at a moment when it'most needed the light. it was he who fairly dragged Lady Agnes aside and pro- posed the banquet. the dance. the con- certâ€"everythingâ€"and it was be who carried out the hundred spasmodic in- structions that she gave. forced upon him. would have been maddening on this night had not all. rancor been tempered by the glorious’ achievement in the market place. He wondered if the princess knew what he had dared and what he had accom- ' plished in the early hours of the night. | He wondered if they had pointed outl his solitary light to herâ€"if how and? then she bestowed a casual glance; upon that twinkling star of his. The norch lantern hung almost directly, above his head. ' Late in the night. long after the din- ner and the dance. the tired but happy company flocked to the picturesque hanging garden for rest and the last refreshment t to the hanging garden one crossed a : narrow bridge which led from‘the sec- ond balcony of the chateau. There 1 was not an hour in the day when pro- tecflon from the sun could not be ‘ found in this little paradise. l 1 Bobby Browne was holding forth i with his usual exuberance on the mag- nificence of the British navy. % “There ahe in now. sleeping out there The hanging garden was a wonder- fully constrm'ted open air plzilsance suspended between the chateau itself and the great (-lit‘i' in whose shadow it stood. The Cliff towered at least 300 feet above the roof of the spreading chateau. a veritable stone wall that extended for a mile ur more in either direction. Near the chateau there was a real waterfall. reminding one in no small sense of the misty veils at Lauter brunnen or ilieshai'l) The swift stream whit‘lt obtained life from these falls. big and little. ran along the base of the clifl' for some distanee and was the!) diverted hy means of a deep. ar- tificial channel into an almost com- plete circuit of the chateau. forming the moat. lt sped along at the foot. of the upper terrace, a wide torrent that washed between solid walls of masonry. whirl: rose to a height of not less than ten feet on either side There were tWo drawhridges. Seldom used. but always [mimic-able. A small sta- tionary bridge erossed the vicious stream immediately below the hang- ing garden‘and led to the ladders by which one ascended to the caverns that ran far back into the mountain. l‘wo big black irregular holes is the face of the cliff marked the entrance to these deep. rambling caves. wonder- ful caverns wrought by the convul- slons of the dead volcano, cracks made by these splinterlng earthquakes when the island was new. The garden hung high between the building and the cliff. swung by a score of great steel cables. These ca- bles were riveted soundly in the solid rock of the clifl’ at one end and fasten- ed as safely to the stone walls of the chateau at the other. ‘It swung stanch- 17 from its moorings with the con- stancy of a suspension bridge and trembled at the slightest touch. It was at least a hundred feet square. The floor was covered with a foot or more or soil. in which the rich grass and plants of the tropics dour- ished. Cool fountains sprayed the air at either end of the green inclosnre. The illusion was complete. The walls surrounding the garden were three feet high and were intend- ed to represent the typical English garden wall of brick. To gain access to the hanging garden one crossed a narrow bridge which led from-the sec- and balcony of the chateau. There was not an hour in the day-guesswo- l The chateau was Indeed the home found in this little paradise.

Sbe arose and walked to the vino covered wall, followed by Bobby Browne. “He has learned to know and keep his place” said she coolly. Perha'pa she was thinking of his last hight in the palace garden. Away up thpre in the darkness gleamed his single. lone- ly, palm-tic little light. "Isn’t it nth- er odd. Mr. Browne. that his light should he burning at 2 o’clock in the morning? is it his custom to sit up?” “i've never noticed it butore. now you speak of it. 1 hope nothing seri- ous has happened to him.

SAUNDERS HAS A PLAN. ‘ ISS PELHAHS affair with Thomas Saundms In this time had reached the siage where observers feel a hesitancy about twitting the parties most concerned. “Miss I’elham is a clever girl. much ezm’cerer than Saunders WUUM be it he were a girl.” said- Britt. “She's found out that he earns a thousand a year and that his mother is a very old ,wo- man. That shows foresight. She says she’s just crazy abouto London, al- though she doesn't know where Ham- mersxnith is. That shows discretion. She's anxious to see the boats at Put- ney and talks like an encyclopedia, about Kew gardens. That shows di- plomacy. You see. Saunders lives In Hammersmlth. not far from the bridge. all' alone with his mother, who owns the house and ganden. It’s m very “She’s, a very nice girl." agreed Bob- by Browne. “A very saucy one." added Depping- ham. who had come a severe crapper in his single attempt to interest her in a mild flirtation. “She’s 01! with Saunders now,” went on Britt. ”That‘s why you can’t find him. my lord.
