CHAPTER V rpiIE mostpepulnr hostess in Londen wns n little thrilled nt the nrrlvnl of ' the moment for which she hnd planned .-e carefully. She laid her hand en Tnllente's arm and led him toward a comparatively occluded corner of the 1 winter garden which made her own beuse famous. "I must apologize, Mrs. Van Fos Fes dyke," he said, "for my late appear ance. I traveled up from Devenshire this afternoon and found snow all the way. We were nearly two hours late." "It Is nil the mere kind of you te have turned out at nil, then." she told him warmly. "I don't mind telling you thnt I hheuld have been terribly dis appointed if you hnd fntled mc. It Iibh been my one desire for months te have you three the l'rlme Minister, I.ethbridge and you under my reef at the samu time." "l'eu find politics Interesting ever here?" Tallcnte asked, a little cu riously. She Unshed a quick glance at him. 'Why, I find them absolutely fas cinating," phe declared. "The whole thing Is be incomprehensible. Just leek at tonight. Half of Debrctt Is represented here, practically the whole of the diplomats, nnd yet, except your self, net a single member of the political party who wc nre told will be ruling this country within a few months. The very anomaly of it is te fascinating." "There is no necessary kinship be tween hoeiety and politics," Tallente reminded her. "Your own country, for instance." Mrs. Van Fesdvke. who was an American, shrugged her shoulders. "My own country scarcely counts, she protested. "After all, we came into being ns a republic, nnd our aris tocracy is only a spurious conglomera tion of people who nre tee rich te need te work. But many of thec people whom you see here tonight still possess feudal rights, vast estates, great names, and yet ever their heads there is coming this government, In which they will be wholly unrepresented. What nre you coin; te de with the aristocracy, Mr. Tallente?" "Encourage them te work," he an swered, smiling. "But they don't knew hew." "They must learn. Ne mnn has a right te his place upon the earth un less he Is a productive human being. There is no room in the world which we are trying te create for the pnrnslte pure and simple." "Yeu are n very Inflexible person, Mr. Tallente." "There is no place in politics for the webbler." "De you knew," she went en. glanc ing nway for a moment, "that my rooms nre filled with people who fear veu? The Laber Party, as it wns under steed here five or six years nge, never i thing of the tub-thumper about every one of them. I think it is your re pression. Mr. Tallente, which terrifies them. Yeu don't say what you nre going te de. lour program is still a secret and yet every day your majority grwR. Only an hour nge the Prime Minister told mc thnt he couldn't carry en if you threw down the gage in earnest." Tallente remained bland, but be came a little vngue. "I sec I'eulds nmeng your guests," he observed. "Have you seen his statue of Perseus nnd Andromeda?" She laughed. "I have, but I nm net going te dis cuss it Of course, I nccept the hint, but a a mutter of fact I am a person te be trusted. I ask for no secrets. I have no position in this country, l'ven my sympathies ere at pres-ent wobbling. I am simply a little tnniieu te nave you here, because the Prime Minister Is within a fpw yards of us and I knew that before many weeks are past the great struggle will come between you nnd him as te who shnll guide the destinies of this country." "Yeu forget. Mrs. Van Feidyke," he objected, "thnt I am net even the lender of mv party. Stephen Dartrey is our chief." She shook her head. ' Dartrey is a brilliant person," she admitted, "but we nil knew that he Is net u practical politician. The bnttle is bet i en you and Herlock." Tallente vnx watching a woman go by, a woman in black and silver, whose walk reminded him of Jane. Ills hostess followed his eyes. "Yeu are one n Alice Meuntgnr- ren s admirers'?" she inquired. "I don't even knew her," he replied. ".She reminded me of some one for a moment." "She is one of thp Duchess of Bar minster's daughters," his companion told him. "She married Mountgarren Inst year. Her sister, Lady Jane, is rather Inclined toward your political outlook. She lives in Devenshire ami tries te de geed." Ills yes followed the woman in black nnd silver until slie had passed out of sight. The family likeness wns there, appealing te him, tugging at his he-irt-strlngs. His artificial surroundings slipped easily away. He wus baek en the moors, he felt a sniff of the strong wind, the wholesome exultation of the empty places, A mere wonderful mem ory still was seeplng in upon him. Ills companion Intervened chillingly. "One never sees jour wife, nowa days, Mr. Tallente," "My wife Is in Amcrlcn," he nn swered mechanlcnlly, "She hns gene there te stay with some relatives. " "She is interested in politics'" "Net in the least." Mrs. Van Fosdyke welcomed a new comer with a gracious little smile nnd Tallente rose te his feet. Herlock had left the group In the centre of the room and was making his way toward them. "At least we can talk here," he said, shaking hands with Tnllente, "without any suggestion of a censinlnicy. The old gang, you knew," he went en, addressing his hostess, "simply close around me when I try te hnvn a word with Tnllente. They lire afraid of some marvelous combination which is going te shut them out " "Lethbrldge is the only one of them here tonight," she observed, "anil he Is prebublyltn one of the rooms where they lire serving things. New I must go back te my guests. If f uce him, I'll bend him off." She strolled away. The prlme Mln- "De yen knew that my rooms are filled with pcople who fear you?" inter sank back upon a couch. Bis air of well-bred content with himself nnd life fell away from htm the moment his hostess wns out of sight. "Tnllente," he said, "I suppose you mean te break us?" "I thought we'd been rather friend ly," wns lie quiet reply. "We've been letting you have your own way for nearly n month." "That Is Blmnly becnuse wc nre en work which we are tackling practically In the fashion you dictated," Herlock pointed out. "When we have finished this Irish business, what are you going te de?" "I nm net the lender of the party," Tellcnte reminded him. "Frem a parliamentary point of view you arc," was the impatient pro pre test. "Dartrey is a dreamer. He mlelit even have dreamed nway his opportunities If you hadn't come along. Sillier would never nnvc nanaieu tne Heuse ns you have. Miller wns made te create factions. Yeu were made te coalesce, te smooth ever difficulties, te bring men of opposite points of view Inte the same camp. Yeu are a genius at it, Tallente. Six months nge I was enlv afraid of the Uemecrats. new j. dread them. Shall I tell you what It Is that werrlea me most?" "If you think It wise." "Your absence of program. Why don't you say what jeu wnnt te do de give us some Idea of hew far you nre going te carry your tents. Are we te have the anarchy of Bolshevists or the socialism of Marx a red fiag republic or a classical dictatorship?" "We arc net out for anarchy, at nil events," Tallente assured him, "nor for revolutions in the ordinary sense of the word." "Yeu mean te upset the Constitu tion?" "Speaking officially, I de net knew. Speaking te you ns a fellow politician, I should say that sooner or later some changes nre desirable." "You'll never get away trem me party government." "Perhaps net, but I dnre say we can find machinery te prevent the Heuse of Commens being used for a debating society." Herlock. whose sense of humor had never been entirely crushed by the exigencies of political leadership, sud- denlv prtnned. "the old gang will commit suicide," he declared. "If they aren't allowed te spout, they'll either wither or die. i Old man Lethbridce's monthly nttacks ,teod here five or six rears age ne er f , h.llndw, patriotism are the only i:tth fAJJl " ; things that keeAlmj alive." "I den t fnncy. Tallente rcmnrKeti, "thnt we shnll nbnnden any of our principles for the sake of keeping Leth brldge nllve." ' "What the mischief nre your prin ciples''" "Ne doubt Dartrey would enlighten you, 11 you chose te go te hlra," was the Indifferent reply. "In the course of the next few months we shnll launch our thunderbolt. Yeu will knew then what wc claim for the people." "Hang the people I" Herlock ex claimed. "I've legislated for them myself until I'm sick of It. They're never grateful." "Perhaps you conflne yourself tee much te one class," Tallente observed drly. "As n rule, the less Intelligent the voter, the mere easily he Is caught by flashy legislation." "The operative pure and simple," Herlock announced, "has no political outlook, He'll never see beyond his trades union. You'll never found a great national party with his aid." His companion smiled. 'Then we shall fall and you will continue te be Prime Minister." Mrs. Van 'Fosdyke came back te them, en the arm of a foreign diplomat. She leaned ever te Herlock and whis pered : "Lethbrldge hns heard thnt you two arc here together nnd he Is en your track. Better separate." She passed en. The two men strolled awny. "Have you any personal feeling against mc, Tnllente?" Herlock asked. "None whatever," his companion ns sured him. "Yeu did me the best turn In your life when you left me stranded after Hellcsfleld." Herlock sighed. "Lethbrldge almost Insisted. He look ed upon you ns a firebrand. He said there would be no response about n Cabinet with you in lt.,f "Well, It's turned out for the best," Tnllente remarked dryly. "Au revelr!" On his way back te the reception rooms, nn acquaintance tapped him en the shoulder. "One moment, Tnllente. Lady Altec Mountgarren has asked me te present you." Tallente bowed before the woman who steed looking at him pleasantly, but a little curiously. She held out her hand. "I seem te hnve heard se much of you from my sister Jane," bhc snld. "Yeu arc neighbors in Devenshire, aren't you?" "Neighbors from a Deven mnn's point of view," he answered. "I llve half way down a precipice, nnd she five miles away, at the back of a Stygian moor, nnd incidentally a thousand feet nbeve mc." "Yeu seem te hnve surmounted such geographical obstacles." "Your sister's friendship is worth greater efforts," Tallente replied. Lady Alice smiled. "I wish that some of you could per suade her te ceme te town occasion ally," she snld. "Jane is n perfect dear, of course, and I knew she docs n g'rent deal of geed down there, but I can't help thinking sometimes that she' is a little wasted. Life must new nnd then be dreary for her." Tallente seemed for n moment te be looking through the walls of the room. "We are nil mode differently. Lady Jnnc Is very self-reliant nnd Devon Deven shire is ene of these counties which hnve n curiously strong lecnl held." "But when her moors nnd her fnrms are under snow, nnd Woelhnngcr is wreathed in mists, nnd one hears noth ing except the meaning of animals in distress, what about the local attrac tion then?" "Yeu speak feelingly," Tallente ob served, smiling. I spent n fortnight with Jnne Inst winter," she explained. "I had some idea of hunting.' Never again! Only I miss Jnne. She Is such a dear nnd I don't see half enough of her." "I saw her yesterday," Tallente snld remlniscently. "This morning bhe told me she was going te ride out te inspect for herself the farm of the one blnck sheep nmeng her tenants. I looked out toward Woelhnngcr as I came up in the train. It seemed like a miasma of driven snow and mists." "Every ene te his tastes," Lady Alice observed, as she turned nway with a friendly little nod. "I have just nn iden, however, thnt this rooming's excursion was n little tee much even for Jnne." "What de you mean?" Tallente asked eagerly. Lady Alice looked at him ever the top of her fan. She was a woman of instinct. "I had a telegram from her just be fore I came out,' nhe said. "There wasn't much In It, but it gave me nn idea that after nil perhaps she is think ing of a short visit te town. Come and see mn, Mr. Tallente, won't you? I live In Mount street Number 17. My husband used te play cricket with you, I think." , She pnsscd en and Tallente steed looking after her for n moment, a little dazed. A friend came up and took him by the arm. "Unprotected and alone in the glided halls, of the enemy I" the newcomer exclnlmed. "Come nnd hnve n drink. By the by, you leek as though you'd had geed news." "I have," Tallente assented, amil- '"'Then we'll drink te It Mnm'll. Net bad stuff. This way."

She approaches the car each day ab solutely certain that it is the same ready and reliable Cadillac it was the day before. As one owner .happily phrases it, the Cadillac is the car that one can think in and net about. The beauty, the comfort, the unparalleled gliding- smoothness of the Cadillac win ever rank high in the appreciation of the owner. But we believe these traits are surpassed in her esteem, and their own charm heightened, by her car's sure reliability. The Cadillac owner achieves the highest form of mebring enjoyment because she is enabled te forget utterly about the mechanism of her car.

AMERICA'S FIRST KAILROAD- ESTABLISHED 1827 oheMest Beautiful Car inmeriat Paige Six-66 Lakewood 7-Passenger Touring Car, $2195 jjiii - Tnii My faith in Paige has been Justified TUK 1WII.BT BUIl.HINU JST nine years age this first of July, I introduced the Paige car te Philadelphians in connection with my own name. I realized then that I was placing the fate of my business future independence upon the actual read performances of these cars. But a careful study of comparative values had confirmed my faith in the Paige te such an extent that I had no doubts of the outcome. After years of ever increasing business success my faith became se strong, se unshakable that I invested thousands of dollars in two imposing monuments te this justified confidence; the Willey Building, Bread at Vine Street, one of the finest meter car establish ments in the country, and a six-story service station, at 16th and Vine Streets, complete enough in equip ment te assemble a new car. Today the Paige 6-66 is recognized as net only "The Most Beautiful Car in America," but "Master of the Highway" as well. The superior performance of the sturdy long-lived Paige has built a reputation that money could net buy. It enjoys the regard of its owners and the deepest respect of its competitors, I am satisfied.
