For the first time since he had known her the color flooded her face; then it receded, leaving her more pale than white. "1 un derstand." “Os course, it may be another Countess Loyos. Like the Zat tianys, It may be a large family," “As it happens there is no other.” Silence. He swore to himself. He had no desire to skate within a mile of her confounded mysteries, and now like a fool he had precipi tated himself into their midst again. But if she wouldn talk. . . . “Suppose we talk of something else," he said hurriedly. "I assure you that 1 have deliberately sup pressed all curiosity. 1 am only too thankful to know you on any terms." “But yon think I am in danger again?” • "Yes, I do.

What is Mr. Dinwid dle's inference?" She was looking at him eagerly. "That yon really are a friend of Countess Zattiany. but for some motive or other you are using her name instead of your own. That— that—you had your own reasons for escapng from Austria " ' Escaping?" "Ons was that you might have got into some political mess — restoration of Charles, or some thing——-" She laughed outright. "The other was —well —that you are hiding from your husband." "My husband is dead," she said emphatically He had never known that clouds, unless charged with thunder, were , noisy. But he heard a black and ominous cloud gather itself and roll off his brain. Had that, after all been . . . Nevertheless, he was annoyed to feel that he was smiling boyishly and that he prob ably looked as saturnine as he felt. “Whatever your little comedy, ft is quite within your rights to play It In your own way." "It is not a comedy,” she said grimly. "Oh! Not tragedy?" he cried in alarm. “No—not yet. Not yet! ... 1 am beginning to wish that I had never come to America.” "Now I shall ask you why." “And I shall not tell you. I have read your Miss Dwight's novel, by the way, and think it quite hid eous." “So do I. But that is the reason of Its success." And the conversa tion meandered along the safe by paths of American fiction through the ices and coffee. XIX They sat beside the fire in chairs that had never felt softer. He smoked a cigar, she cigarettes in a long topaz holder ornamented with a tiny crown of diamonds and the letter Z. She had given it to him to examine when he exclaimed at its beauty. Z! But he banished both k curiosity ami possible confirmation. He was replete and comfortable and almost happy. The occasional silences were now merely agreeable. She lay back in her deep chair c -e --laxed as himself, but altb' :gu she said little her aloofness had mys teriously departed. She looked companionable and serene- Only one narrow foot in Its silvery slip- 1 per moved occasionally, and her white and beautiful hands, whose suggestion of ruthless power Ctav-i eriug bad appreciated apprehend sively from the first, seemed, al though they were quiet, subtly to lack the repose of her body. Once*while he was gazing into the fire he felt sure that she was examining his profile. He made no pretensions to handsomeness, but he rather prided himself on his nose, the long fine straight nose of the Claverings. His brow was also good, but although his hair was black, his eyes were blue, and he would have preferred to have black eyes, as he liked consistent types. Otherwise he was one of the "black Claverings.’’ Northumbrian in ori gin and claiming descent from the Bretwaldes, overlords of Britain, the Claverings were almost as fair as their Anglican ancestors, but once in every two or three gen erations a completely dark member appeared, resurgence of the an cient Briton; sometimes associated with the high stature of the strong er Nordic race, occasionally—par ticularly among the women—al most squat. Clavering had been spared the small stature and the small too narrow head, but saving his steel blue eyes—trained to look keen and hard —he was as dark as any Mediterranean. His mouth was well shaped and closely set, but cnnnblfi of relaxation and look ■ed as it it might once have been full and sensitive. It too had h e fuverel> # tamed. The long : was nan owe? than the Ion; .■! mirably proportioned head.* It w?.. by no means as dishannon c a type as Gora Dwight's; the b! nd ng of the races was far more subtle. and when making one of his brief visits to Europe he was generally la.-mn for an Englishman, never for a member of the Datin' peoples: cept possibly in the north of France, where his type s among those Norman descendants o' Norse and Danes, was not uncom mon. Nevertheless, although his northern inheritance predominated, he was conscious at times of a certain affinity with the face that two thousand years ago had met and mingled with his own. He turned bis eyes swiftly an 1 met hers. She colored faintly and dropped her lids. Had she lowered those broad lids over a warm glow? “Now I know what you look like!" he exclaimed, and was sur prised to find that his voice was not quite steady. “A Nordic prin cess." “Oh! That is the very most charming compliment ever paid me.” “You look a pretty unadulterated type for this late date. I don't mean in color only, of course; there are millions of blondes.” "My mother was a brunette." “Oh, yes, you are a case of ata vism, no doubt. If I were as good a poet as one of my brother col umnists I should have written a poem to you long since. I can see you sweeping northward over the steppes of Russia as the ice-caps retreated . . . re-embodied on the Baltic coast or the shores of the North Sea . . . sleeping for ages in one of the Megaliths, to rise again a daughter of the Brythons, or of a Norse Viking . . . west, into Anglia to appear I once more as a Priestess of the i Druids chaunting in a sacred grove | . . .or as Boadicea —who knows! 1 But no prose can regenerate that shadowy time. I see it —prehistory ! —as a swaying mass of ghostly i multitudes, but always pressing on j —on ... as we shall appear, j no doubt, ten thousand years hence if all histories are destroyed—as no doubt they will be. If I were an epic poet I might possibly find . words and rhythm to fit that white vision, but it Is wholly beyond the i practical vocabulary and mental I make-up of a newspaper man of the twentieth •tentury. Some of us I write very good’ poetry indeed, but | it is not precisely inspired, and it certainly is not epic. One would have to retire to a cave like Bud j dha and fast.” 110 CpntinijedX &&& LUCIENKNIGHT TELLS' OF GEORGIA SEALS Interesting Articles Depicts Part Four Great Seals Have Play ed in Georgia History 75 f - ATLANTA, Nov. 3.—(By As sociated Press) —Since the grant ing of Georgia’s Colonial charter |in 1732, there have been four ■ great seals of state by which the stamp of authority has been as- j fixed to official transactions of j the state government, according to i The Official and Statistical Regis- I ter complied by Lucian Lamar j Knight, state historian. i The Colonial Sear or of the ' Trustees, was the first; the second, I the Provincial Seal, -or Seal of-the ' Royal Governors; the. third,- the I Great Seal of 1777, and the ; fourth, *he Great Seal of 1798, i which is in use today, with a few j modifications. “The colonial Seal, adopted by i the trustees and brought to Geor- I gia by James Edward Ogletorpe in ; 1733 bore, on its reverse side the I famous motto ‘Non Sibi Sed- Allis,’ j meaning, INot ForOuJ'scdves But for Others,’ and showed a device • of silk worms, some beginning and ■ others completing their labors,” ac- I cording to Mr. Knight. “No clear piint of this side of ! the sead, known as the ‘Common Seal,’ and used to attest orders, certificates and grants can be fig ured resting upon urns from which poured streams representing the river, Savannah and Altamaha, the upper and lower boundaries of the colony; a female figure seated in the center wears the cap of liberty and holds in one hand a a spear -while the other rests .pon a cornicopia; behind this figure rises a tree above which is in scribed the legend Colonia Georgia Augueat—May the colony of Georgia Wax Strong. This face of the seal, the great seal proper, was used for attesting legislative acts, deeds and commissions. The original seal is still preserved in British Museum, in London.” NEW SEAL AUTHORIZED BY KING OF ENGLAND. “When Georgia became a Pro vince,” Dr. Knight continues, “the old seal of the trustees was super ceded by the new seal of the Pro vince approved by the king on June 21, 1754. “This seal, the largest and most beautiful of all the state’s em blems, showed the following design 1 On the face, a figure representing the Genius of the colony offering coloni, and around the cireumfer the motto Hine Laudem Sperati a skein of silk to his majesty, with erne the inscription, Segiliium t>ro vinci-ic Nostrae Georgian in Amer ita. On the other side appeared his majesty’s arms, togther with his (Awn, garter and supporter, and this inscription.

This symbol was diserded when the citizens rebelled against the king’s authority, arrested and im prisoned the royal governor t.nd established a republican form of government. “The new great seal provided for in the Constitution of 1777, was, perhaps in accordance witli demo cratic ideas, smaller in size and simpler in design, showing on one tide a scroll, Georgia and the mot to, Pro Bone Publico, and on the other side an elegant house and other buildings, fields of corn and meadows covered with sheep and cattle, with a river \ running through the same and a ship under full sail, and the motto, Deus Nobis Haec Otia Fecit,” according to the historian. “Wax impressions of this seal are comparatively few in num ber and the original by an order of the legislature bearing date of ; February 8, 1799, was ‘broken in Grove's Tasfe/ess { CW Tonic Makes the Body Strong. ’ Makes the Blood Rich, soc RAILROAD SCHEDULE ; Arrival and Departure of Passenge> Trains, Americus, Ga. ■ The following schedule figures 1 . üblished as information and not guaranteed: CENTRAL OF GEORGIA RY.

BY ASSEMBLY IN 1799. Tlie present great seal was au thorized by the Constitution of 1798, but was not adopted until February 8, 1799, when an act of the legislature providing it was approved by the governor. The new seal, on one side, bears the inscription, State of Georgia,” in a semi-circle; at the bottom ‘1776’ is engraved. Three pillars, representing “Wisdom, Jus tice and Moderation,” uphold an arch on which is engraved “Con stitution.” A plan with a drawn sword stands between the pillars of justice and moderation, on the other side is a view of the sea shore with a ship bearing the flag -'•of the United States, riidng near a wharf, receiving aboard hogshead of tobacco aifd cotton; at a dis tance, a boat landing from the in terior of the state with hogshead on board, representing the state s internal trafficc, and at a small distance a flock of sheep by a tree. The motto on thig side is Agricul ture and Commerce. Several changes were made in this seal, but in 191-1, the assembly authorized the re-engraving of the great seal of 1799. The newly en graved seal was used on and after I May 26, 1915, the old seal adopt ed 115 years before, being i de stroyed by the governor on that ditte, according to Mr. Knight. Under the law, the secretary of state is the custodian of the great seal, which is attached to papers only by executive orders from toe governor.
