Second, Hedvvlg did not come to - the Tiding lesson nnd he had Xlkky to himself. Third, he, I'rinco Ferdinand William Otto, was on the eve of a birthday.

Ho stood the boy on the desl. Do sou think she Is iu love with you?" demanded the Crown Prince verj seriously, "Not a bit of It, young man!" "But I 'think she Is," he persisted. "She's always liround when you are." "Not this morning." "Hut she Is when she can be. She never used to take riding lessons. She doesn't need them." This was n griev ance, but he passed It over. "And she alwns asl.s whero you nro. And yes terday, when sou were away, sue ioukcii very sad." Xlkky stood with his hand on the boy's shoulder nnd stared out through the window. If It were so, it this child, with his uncanny sensitiveness, had hit on the truth! If Hedwlg felt even a fraction of what he felt, what a tiag edv It all was ! He forced himself to smile, however. J "Jf she only likes me Just a little," he said lightly. "It U moro than I dare to hone, or deserve, Come, now, we pave spent too much time over love and dele gations. Suppose we go ana riue.

"If you would marry Hedwlg," he suggested, an anx ious thrill in his voice, "you would live at the ntlace always, wouldn't jj?tl7 And never have to go back to your legl. ment?" For the bugaboo of losing Xlkky to his regiment was always In the back of his small head. Xovv, lUten, Otto, and remember," said Xlkky, almost sternly. "It may be difficult for sou to understand now, but some day you will. The grancuiaugn ter of the King must marry some one of her own rank. "Xo matter how hard you and I may wish things to be different we cannot change that. And It would be much better , never to mention this conver sation to your cousin. Girls," said Xlkky, "are peculiar." . "Very well," said the Crown Prince humbly. Hut he made careful note of one thing. He was not to talk of this plan with Hedwlg, but there was no other restriction.' He could, theicfore, for Instance, take It up with the Chan cellor, or even with the King tomor row.
