This was Monday. On Wednesday week there was to be a state dinner at the French Lmlwssv, followed.by introdneing a ball, for the purpose of Monsieur Alphonso to the daughter ot Maiquis do la Punt hie re, Freneti Am lmssador at St. James.’ A little of Kn had been atloyved creep in, in deference to which the Vi comte had received a private invita tiou to tea on the same afternoon, un til which time, owing to her absence huh ou a visit in Shropshire, the voting would be invisible. In one more week from that ilatu they yvere to be mar ried—a queer arrangement to the Knu lish mi nils, but to the two and indeed to flic two persons who in Knoiisii eves would have been consul creel victims to il, the most n aural state of tilings in tile vvorlit Oddly enough, .fewest the Vicomte could not dance the waltz which was ^ ;lllol | lvr S1) mrkiv tiiatin these Davs it is easy fi a sailor, French by birth, and fashionable film bv station though be. to remra the service of his C<)U alt(l til , llilllsulf stU , on the' well-waxed Ijteof hoards tfiingieouhl of a ball room.

So the Vi comte had called in Silver street one morning at an earlv Ii mr, had sent-„p card, and hadbee , duly received bv MadcmofePNV Goi v.mx, and had ken his first le-s u u at once. She was not at all like the dancing-mistress whom, from the description given him bv the fnernls who had recommended to apply to her, lie had expected to see.
