It was naturally hoped that the subtle device of draw ing down the blinds in their compart: ment would conceal frour the world which it was that contained hero and heroine. But this was not to be. The very stars in their coerses fought against the happy pair. Though by a stroke of genius they Had chosen for their quiet retreat a hotel in Piccadilly, even there they could not
