decided to make the remainder of the I
journey afoot It was perhaps n min. '
ute or two later that they rounded the
last turning and came in sight of the
palace. It was a substantial but rath
er ornate building, standing some dis
tance back from the pavement, a low
wall, behind which was a high hedge,
shutting it off front th* line of traffic,
und a gate at either end giving ingress
to and egress from the scmi-circulaf
driveway which led to and from the
imposing doorway. And Cleek en
tering with the others through one of
these gates—had but Just time to re
mark that low doorstep, balustrade
and flower urns all were of w r hlte
marble, when, with a warning "Honk-
honk!” a motor horn sounded and
swung in at the other gate, and glided
noiselessly up the curve of the drive
way and halted at the building’s door.
A Liveried Chauffeur.
In the driver’s seat of this elab-*-
raie conveyance sat a liveried chauf
feur—young, alert, sharp-eyed and
bright-faced—and beside him. arrayed
in livery that matched his own to a

jumped down from it in an excess of
animal spirits—as bonny a specimen
of a health\, happy, care-free .young
JJriton as one might hope to see.
He was about to spring up the step
and run indoors when he caught sight
of Lady Jennifer, but instantly al
tered his intention and, brushing
aside the elderly man with the bag.
faced round and hurried ty her.
"I say, I am glad you’ve come back
at last, Lady Jennifer—I’ve had no
end of a rough time of it since you've
been gone," he said, with a bright,
breezy laugh. "Who the dickens
have you got sitting with Dick? The
beggars wouldn’t lei me in when T !
