cover if she could whether the check had been delivered — what his plans were. Smiling a trifle grimly, Disraeli bound his fine white handkerchief about his bony forehead and lay down upon the couch. "Send word that / am ill. Make her think me broken, dying. If she believes that we have lost hope, she will make no further move."
Lady Travers professed herself desolated, shocked. She went away, triumphant, after being allowed a glimpse of what seemed an old, stricken man, helpless to avert the disgrace that overhung him.
But it was no stricken or helpless man who faced the stony resentment of Sir Michael Probert a few hours later, telling him in crisp, decisive words what he must do to avert disaster. Lady Beaconsfield, occupying her trembling hands with embroidery close by, thought that she had never seen him more assured, more confident. "God !" she kept saying over and over to herself, "Dear God — please, dear God."
"I told you once I would have nothing to do with it," snapped the banker. "You went ahead without my advice ; you must face the consequences without my help, Lord Beaconsfield" — the title came with ill grace from lips descended from the Knights of the Table Round.
"You understand fully what your refusal means?" asked the Prime Minister calmly, without stirring in his chair. "England will be discredited before the world. A patriot would think twice before he refused, Sir Michael."
"You speak one word for England and two for yourself," sneered the banker. "I'd hate to be in your shoes when the news breaks."
"Then you are quite positive in your refusal ?" said again the suave voice.
"I am," grunted the other, with a flash of malice as he rose. Disraeli rose also, and his fist came crashing down on the table between.
"You fool !" he cried, "I was giving you a chance to prove yourself a patriot, that is all. You will give me your note for the money to cover the check tonight before you leave the house ! I am the Prime Minister of England, and I have the power to close your bank about your ears !"
When Sir Michael had gone, cowed and submissive, leaving the desired paper on the table, Lady Beaconsfield laid down her needle with a deep breath.
"You were wonderful !" she told her husband. "I was never so proud ! But — have \ou realty the power to close the bank?"
"No," said Disraeli, smiling his sardonic smile as he folded the precious note and put it into his pocket. "No, my dear, I haven't. But — Sir Michael didn't know that !" He bent and kissed the small, trembling hands. "Tonight a week, the Queen holds her reception in celebration of her new title, 'Empress of India.' I must be beside her, of course, but it shall be you, my dearest love, who shall have the honor of informing her Gracious Majesty of her new honors !"
But when the night came that was to crown the Prime Minister's career, Lady Beaconsfield was too ill to move from her couch. "Her heart," the doctor murmured. "It is nothing to cause anxiety — yet."
"You mean," said Disraeli slowly, fumbling with his monocle, "that at any moment she may "
"It is possible," said the professional man importantly, "but, we will hope, very unlikely. She may recover as suddenly as ; he was stricken — the heart, it is a very uncertain thing, my lord !"
"You must go, of course, dear," Lady Beaconsfield smiled up at him. "It is impossible for you to miss it, and I shall lie
