At college he had gone In for athletics, but not for dissipation. When be graduated he took up the serious business of life and, of course, found a ready opportunity, of which he availed himself to the uttermost. So at thirty he was well established for life so far as business was concerned, and was well along on the road to being a rich man. He was not mar Tied, never having found time to Indulge in social pleasures, nor to cultivate the very considerable streak of romance which ran through bis gray-halre- d y, lf nature. Through no fault of his the busiin hand at New Orleans dragged fearfully, and he was detained there much longer than had been anticipated. But It was of Importance to demand hts presence. So he found much leisure on his handr and gave more time to sight seeing and pleasure than he ever had done before. He enjoyed especially to go away from huunts of trade and pluuge Into the old historic section of the city, letting his imagination run riot with the old houses and filling his mind with pictures of what might have happened in bygone day a. He had almost exhausted the sights, tired of the theater and other form of pastime and was beginning to chafe at his enfoiced stay, when he overheard a conversation one day which put a strange Idea Into hit head. For you know Satan finds mischief still for Idle hands to do. He was at the old absinthe place, sipping a glass of the stuff, against which there are so many warnings, and wondering how anybody could become addicted to Us habitual use, when two young fellows at the next table started In to discuss a fancy dresa ball, to be given that night. They talked so loudly that he was an Involuntary listener. Without being at all Interested he learned that the ball waa public, that It was to be ness he had sitf-flcle- half-worl- d i i Is" bea-I- e d tow-heade- d boaster the,-i- s one-hal- k cannot make my Identity known. and In a trice was a part of the gay and brilliant throng. For an hour It made him fairly The masking of the women dizzy. seemed to make them more audacious In the display of their charms and Livingston marveled greatly at the Ingenuity with which they had contrived to adopt costumes so as to suggest to the full the graceful and alluring lines of their figures. Some of the skirts were so high and necks so low as to make the mask the most considerable article of apparel. It waa all very new and very Interesting to the northern business man, with his strict training and cor rect life and he was deeply Interested. He was leaning against a pillar watchthe kaleidoscopic panorama, ing when a tall and graceful figure. In a most alluring domino of purple silk of the richest texture, paused before him and snld: Why standest thou all the right in moody contemplation, oh, moBt sombre Knight?" Startled, Livingston straightened himself and glanced at hla questioner. Her raven hair waa caught up with costly Jewels, her costume bespoke a generous purse; her domino clung about the lines of a figure of singular perfection; her sllrpered feet and daintily gloved hands bespoke the aristocrat. "Still, who knows?" thought Livingston. Summoning LI wits he replied: "A stranger In a strange land I must be content to gaze from afar upon the promised land." There are no strangers here tonight," said the woman. "All are comrades and friends. Be not a death's head at tho feast, I conjure 1 you.
