who can save Russin much pain,” sho inslated.

Sho described Rasputin and the"} miracle he had performed. Prince Paul was tenderly incredulous. He did not wish to hurt her feelings, only commenting:

"On my father's estate in the Ukraine, there was a faith healer. I watched him work. It was a crude form of hypnotism; that was all."

"Oh, but not Father Rasputin- he is a true Holy man.

Prince Paul laughed at her en- thusiasm.

"Run up and ask him to prevent any disorders to-morrow," he sug gested.

"Disorders?"

"Yes. That's why I'm here. We're posting patrols. We fear that there may be trouble at the celebration."

"But, why should there be any trouble? The people love the Im-. | perial family and are happy to cele-

brate the third century

of their reign," she insisted.

"I wish that were true of all the people," he said noberly. "It would save us a lot of trouble and worry. My regiment is on guard and I feel the safety of the Imperial family is my own responsibility. God knows what to-morrow will bring. The Grand Duke Sergel, he's so rash and so given to doing foolish things. The people haven't forgot ten the ten roubles reward he gave that sentry who shot down Sonin Nordkin, the revolutionist, in cold blood."

"But you really don't think the Grand Duke Sergel la in danger?"

"In grave danger-and what is worse, he has refused to allow me to give him an escort to the cathedral.. He insists upon driving in his car- riage without an armed guard. I'm worried. God alone knows what may happen."-

Natasha patted his hand reassur- ingly, and the young officer smiled back gratefully. They parted. In Natasha's ears, her sweetheart's last words, "God alone knows what may happen." persisted in a thin echo. She sluddered,

What will to-morrow bring? Are Prince Paul's fears unfounded or is there real danger for the Im- perial family? Read, to-morrow's instalment.
