Yet he did not altogether lose his common sense. "But Russia." he objected, “she would ne\er sanction a German inva. sion of France."

Mon Dion I Never." Mr. Sabin'e face was suddenly ii- luminated. A fire flashed in his dark eyes. and a note of fervent passion quiverei lifelike in his vibrating voice. His manner had all the abandon of one pleading a great cause, nursed by a great heart. He was a patriot or a poet, surely, not only a poi.ti- cian or a mere intriguing adventur, er. For a moment he suffered his enthusiasm to escape him. Then the mask was 41.4 suddenly dropped. He was himself again, calm, convincing, impenetrable. As the echoes of his last interjection died away there was a silence between the two men. It was the Ambassador at last who broke it. 110 was looking curiously at his companion. - "I must confess." he said. slowly. "that you have fascinated me!

Mr. Sabin. with a cis- arette between his teeth. and hum-v ming now and than a few bars from one ot Verdi's operas. commenced to carefully select a bagful of golf clubs trom a little pile which stood in one corner of the room. Already they bore signs ot considerable mm and he handled them with the cars of an expert. swinging each one gently. and hesitatlng for some time between a woolen or a metal putter, and longer still between the rival claims of a bulgdr and a 'tat. headed bras-nay.

"m, Has Gone to the Etrtperort" The Ambassador. when he left Mr. Subln'. house. stepped Into a hired luuwom and drove ott towards Ar. pygmy: ft.ree.t., A young man ‘wllo ed a small room nearly opposite. It was luxuriously furnished with elwy chairs and divans: there were eigars and cigarettes. and decan- ters upon a round table. Felix took note ot none of these things. nor did he sit down. He stood with his hand» behind him, looking stendlly into the fire. His cheeks were al. most livid. save for a single spot of burning color high up on his cheek bone. His lingers twitehad nervously, his eyes were dry and restlessly bright. He was evidently In at state of great excitement. In lotus thun two minutes the door open- "is Hu, Excellency withlu?" he asked " tall servant In plain dress who came lot-ward to meet him. “You."

How he ob. tained access to them he does not say. but his report is absolute. He considers that they Justify fully the man Sabin's version of them." The Prince smiled. " My own judgment is verified," he said. “I believed in the man trom the first. It is good. By the bye. have you seen anything of Mr. Sabin today ?" _ _ "l have come straight." Felix said. " from watching his house." " Yer?" " The Baron von Knlgenstein has been there alone, Incognito, tor more than an hour. I watched him go Its -aud watched him out." The Prince's genial smile vanished. His lace grew suddenly dark as thun- der. The Muscovloe crept out un- uwures. There was a. fierce light in his eyes. and his face was like the face of a wolf; yet. his voice when he spoke was low. Tiiririneo returned to his guests, and Fell: drove on. When he returned his chief was waiting tor ttimptees "For abroad l" the Prince exclaimed, with flashing eyes. "He has gone to Germany." Felix shook his head. "Un the contrary." he said. "he has gone down into Norfolk to plgg'ngou." "Into Norfolk to play golf!“ the Prince repeated, In a tone of scorntul wonder. "Did you believe a story like that, Fellx t Rubbish t." Felix smiled slightly. "It is quite true," he said. "Lahanott makes no mistakes, and he saw him come out of his house, take his ticket at King's Cross, and actually leave the station." ed. and a tall, distinguished looking mam grey-headed, but with a mom. tache still almost black. came soft- ly Into the room.

"Is It hnythlng important, Felix?" ttt.yyilrtsd; "yo?, my Iookityr yrep." "l think not," the Prince replied. "Your services are valuable to me, my dear Felix; and in this country, more than any other, deeds of vio. lence are treated with scant cere- mony. and affairs of honor are not understood. No. I saved you from yourself for myself. It was an ex. oellent thing for both of us." "I trust." Felix repeated, "that your Excellency may always think so. But to-be brief. The report from Cartienne is at hand." So no l" he said. softly. "Mr. Sabin Lsrqoingru. little flirting, ls he? All 1" "Are you sure that It is not n. blind?" the Prince asked, lncredulously. Fell: shook his head. "It Is quite true, Your Excellency." The Ambassador nodded and list- enecL expquantly. "No; I am glad to see you," she said, simply. "You startled me, that Ls all. I did not hear you coming, and I had forgotten almost where I was. I was thinking." He stood by her slde. his cap still In his hand. facing the strong sea wind. Again he was conscious of that sense of extreme pleasure which had always marked his chance meetings with her. This time he felt perhaps that there was some {definite reason for it. There was something in her expression. when she had turned so swiftly round, which seemed to tell him that her first Words were not altogether meaningless. She was looking a lit tle pale. and he fancied also a little sad. There was an inexpresslble wistfulness about her soft, dark eyes: the light and charming galety of her manner. so un-English and so attractive to him. had giver. place to quite another mood. Whatever her thoughts might have been when he had first seen her there, her tall, slim figure outlined so clearly against the abrupt sky line. they were at all events scarcely pleasant ones. He felt that his sudden ap- pearance had not been unwelcome to her, and he was unreasonably pleased. he said. "If you knew the man an well no I do. you would not be surprised. He is, indeed, a very extraordinary ttttmon-ite doe- theee sort ot thins! Besides, he wants to keep out ot the way." The Prince's face darkened. "He will find my way a little hard to get out of." he said. fiercely. "Go and get lone dinner, Felix, and then try and find out whether Knlgenateln has any notion of leaving England. He will not trust a matter like this to correspondence. Btay-l know how to manage it. I will write and ask him to dine here next week. You shall take the invitation." " "He will be at Arlington street. Felix remarked. - _ "Well, you can take " on to him there," the Prince. directed. "Go tirat to Ills house and ask for his where- abouts. They wul tell you Arllntwn Street. You will not know. of course. the contents of the letter you carry; Four instructions were simply to de- llver it and get an answer. Good! you will do that." A The Prince. while he talked, was writing the note. Felix thrust it Into his pocket and went out. in less than hull an hour he was back. The Baron had returned to the German Embassy unexpectedly, beiore going to Arlington street. and Felix had caught him there. The Prince tore open the answer, and read it hastily through. "The German Embassy. “Wednesday evening.

" was discov- ered by Addison-or, rather, stumbled upon by tiim--wltlle he was endeavor- iug to detect the cause of certain fatal cases of anaemia which he en- countered from time to time. Brett cases were taken note of by Dr. Chan- Ing in New England in 1842. Dr. Addison says: . . " The Labing and tmartuet,-rtstits tea- turea of th" morbid state to which I would direct attention are anaemia. general lunguor and detflltr remark- able lenbleness of the heart's actlon, irritability or the stomach and u. peculiar change in the color of the skin. occurring In connectlon with a diseased condition of the nuprarenal cagsules." _ . .

There WLII.d appear to be little hope of curing the wo- man, but It is thought her lite may he prolonged a month or two. Ac- cording to the latest account the skin of the patient is of the color of bronze. which marks the malady as undoubtedly one that, notwithstand- lug its rare occurrence. has come to be well known as Addison's. All the descriptions at it in the medical books are in protemrional language and hard to be understood by laymen. but herein an attempt is made to tram- late technical terms into tn-rmq that will be generally cyrmtelrenued., _ Addison's disease is u dlsease of the suprnrenal capsules, which in the medical books are classified among the ductlesa glands. They are other- wise known as the adrenal bodies, and again as the atrahiliary cap- sules from the dark-brown hue occas- lonally observed in their medullary portion after _death. Nothing is definitely known as to the functions eXeroised by these bod- ies. They are commonly believed to form part of the lymph system of the body. Neither, it is asserted. from physiological experimentation nor from pathological investigation has much light as yet been shed upon the subject. Disease lmtely Became Known. There was practically no knowl- edge of any value rwpectlng the disease of the adrenal bodies till 1855, when Dr. Thomas Addison, of Guy‘s Hospital. London. tirtgt pub- lished his observations on the mal- ady new known by his name. From that time careful study has been made of the organs. and their ditV eases are now well recognized. And yet it is affirmed that, despite all this knowledge, ignorance remains of the exact functions of these organs in health. it is only surmised that. they act most probably as do other ductless glands in the body, and ure more particularly a part of the lympathic system. They bear a re- markable relation to the great ab. domlnal nervous centres. and have in their intimate textures a. larger portion of nervous tissues than is to be found in glands of any kind with. in the organisnn. . He regards the snprarennl bodies as In part excretory glands and the symptoms of Addison's dlscuse as due to Interference with these tune. tions, leading to the circulation of decomposing products and inducing 'h tendency to pigmentary deposi- t on. _ It ls noted. turtheru that no mor- bid condition of the adrenals is cup- able of affording any detectable phy- sical signs during lite. With reapoct to the functions of these bodies. Dr. Auld, ot Glasgow. found that many red corpueclee make their way Into these cells. and are almost nonstunt- ly there. He believes that certain of these oorpuscles are selected and attracted by ettemitttactic action within the cells. They thereassume a greenish brown color and begin to break up Into larger and smaller particles. Pigmentfng particles are present. Dr. Auld therefore believes that one. at least.- of the functions of the adrenals is to destroy a cer- tain clan of effeto red oorpuscles of the blood.
