CHAPTER XXV.—Conteludad.
"What Is that building?” ha naked,
little thinking how the anawer would
affect him.
"Oh. that used to be my brother's
painting room, Dr. Mueller,” Sylvia
aald. as she fastened a spray of golden
rod In her belt, "t have a brother who
a professional nrtlat—he Is at pres
ent .In Spain. He utmost lived In that
Minting room during the time he was
Irst practicing his art, but for years
the hut has been used only at rare In
tervnls. Perhaps you would like ti
see It closer? I fear It la locked,
though. Ruth Pritchard, one of tho
girls at Moorcombe, usually keeps the
key."
Sylvia moved away from tho path aa
ahe spoke, and directed her steps to
ward dhe painting room. She waa not
looking at Dr. Mueller just now, and
consequently she did not observe the
odd pallor that had crept Into hla face
—the strange, startled, shrinking ex
pression of his eyes.
For a moment or two he was silent,
j he followed the girl beneath the
trees In the direction of the wooden
building. Then he forced himself at
last to speak.
"I was not aware, until now, that
you had a brother. Miss Thurston,” he
said. "You have never mentioned him
until this Instant—but then, of course.
"Raymond Thurston," Sylvia aup-
nlied.r still with that ring of pride In
her low, vibrating tones,
Carl Mueller started, and with an
effort he managed to suppress the cx-
nls lips, while
had so many other
ow that I think of It, I really be
lieve I have not mentioned by brother
to you. Dr. Mueller. But you mat-
have heard of him." the girl went on.
with an unconsciously proud ring In
her voice. "He Is well known In the
art world, and has had pictures hung
on the line at the exhibitions during
the last two seasons.”
“I must have heard of him then, of
course. Thurston—Thurston—let me
clamatlon that rose to . .
tho pallor of his face had now taken
almost a chalky tint.
He was Inded terribly startled—so
startled that an Incredulous feeling
quickly followed, and he said to him
self, In a dated, helpless sort of way,
that there were, of course, two Ray
mond' Thurstons—and that Sylvia's
brother was not—could not be—the
one that he waa thinking of Just thek.
And all the time he wqs conscious of
a sense of relief that Sylvia Thurston
was hnrrylnii onward ahead of him.
and had not looked around at him
even once slnca this agitating subject
was mentioned. He plucked up his
courage. at the thought, and endeav
ored to speak with ease and uncon

moment. Dr. Mueller, vrtille I run
In and see who is wtthln?”
Sylvia disappeared across the
threshold of the hut and Carl Mueller
was alone. He lifted his felt hat and
ran his fingers through the wavy jet
black locks that clustered about his
handsome head. His lips felt clammy,
and that startling pallor waa still no
ticeable In hla face.

CHAPTER XXVI.
A Girl’s Idol.
The wild sunset light, quivering be
tween the Interlacing branches of the
trees, filled the painting room as Sylvia
Thurston entered it, end In that rud
dy glow the odd figure of Ruth Pritch
ard was revealed, as the girl shrank
back behind the shabby old arm
chair from which she had risen a few
minutes before, on hearing the ap
proaching voices and footsteps.
"Don’t be frightened, Ruth,” Sylvia
said, reassuringly, "I guessed you
were here—dreaming your queer
dreams as usual, I suppose, and think-
uth Pritchard's thin olive face be-
cnine suffused with a faint access of
color as Sylvia spoke. She waa an
odd-looking gin, with almost an un
canny expression In her gypsylike fsee,
and the great masses of sooty black
hnlr which were twisted anyhow about
her smalt narrow head, escaping here
and there In long, nodding elf locks,
accentunted tho peculiarity of her ap-
pearance.
Ruth Pritchard had lived all her
twenty years of life at Moorcombe, her
mother having helped to-nurse the
Judge and afterward the Judge's dough,
ter.
Ruth was Sylvia's foster-sister, and
the two children hod grown up to
gether. Ruth waa indeed more of a
companion than a maid to Sylvia
Thurston. From the effect of para-
ly aelsure which Ruth had suffered In
the previous year the girl's left hand
and arm were almost useless, and a
slight lameness In the left leg had also
resulted from this attack. Slnca this
unfortunnte occurrence the girl had
grown nervous and depressed In spirits.
And no wonder; for her mother had
been totally paralysed for two years
before her death at Moorcombe, and a
terror of a similar dreadful fate hung
above Ruth's head like the suspended
sword of the fable.
A Passion of Love.
Ruth Pritchard had elnce her early
girlhood taken upon herself the exclu
sive care of Raymond Thurston'
painting room: and even now that
Raymond had no further use for the
studio Ruth came to employ herself
at this loved yet lonely task.
Seated In Raymond's armchair, which
had never been removed from the
painting room, Ruth Pritchard would
close her black eyes and give herself
her own heart the girl- had grown to
love Raymond Thurston with a love
that ultimately became the all-absorb
ing passion of her life. But Rutl
guarded her secret, and even Sylvia
her constant companion, had never
fathomed tho actual truth.
"Ruth Is eccentric In her likes and
dislikes. She has a loyalty and rever
ence for Raymond, which outlive time
and separation,” Sylvia often mused, aa
she observed some fresh Indication of
Ruth's sincerity to the absent one.
And Sylvia sometimes treated the
matter In a Jocose way, and referred
playfully to Ruth's care of the studio,
little dreaming * “
of tha tragedy of this
lonely, afflicted girl's life, and the
secret that was so Jealously guarded
bemnd the compressed, sensitive lips,

'Dr. Mueller. wishes to see the
studio, Ruth. He Is waiting outside,”
Sylvia resumed, as Ruth was silent.
"It looks nice and tidy, aa usual."
And ahe glanced about the small
room, with Its long, low window,
draped In vsllow curtains. Its shabby
easel, still standing os Raymond had
left It, Its dark-red painted walls, and
the tattered Japanese screen that was
drawn partly across the lower end of
the room, and townrd the shelter of
which Ruth now Instinctively recoiled,
with a sudden startled look In her
black eyes.
"I’ll get behind the screen, Miss Syl
via," Ruth said In a whisper. "I have
no business here.”
“But Dr. Mueller won’t stay a mo
ment, and he certainly won’t eat you,
Ruth. However, do as you please,"
And Eylvia turned to the door nnd
requested Mueller to come In.
"A very retired, suitable little place
for uninterrupted work of any kind,”
he said, as he gazed round the painting
room, now Illuminated In the last

"My brother use-..
eight hours here even - day at one time.
He waa a most enthusiastic artist. He
simply lived In his work. When he
was engaged In a painting he was al
most blind and deaf to this actual,
commonplace, every-day world of ours.
He took no Interest whatever at such
times In his surroundings, and he
often had his meals sent over here
from Moorcombe and dined alone, save
for the company of the birds, bees and
squirrels In the wood.”
Mueller had moved to the window,
where he stood gazing abstractedly
upon the glorified western sky, visibly
betwejn-a break In the spreading
trees. His back was partly turned to
Sylvia now, nnd she could not see his
face very well. But a pair of black
eyea from the shadows of the Japan-
*»e screen was reading every feature
of Carl Mueller’s changing counten
ance.
A Cunning Move,
"Your brother must Indeed be a true
artist, from all that you say, Miss
Thurston. I shall be very pleased to
see those pictures which you kindly
promised to show me. Have you—but
of course you have—a photograph of
your brother at Moorcomt*?"
"Oh, yes—two or three; .and We’ve
also a portrait of Raymond, painted by
himself before a mirror. It la a life
like portrait Sometimes aa I look at
It I am almost certain that the eyes
are moving."
“Indeed! And does your brother re
semble you at all, Miss Thurston?"
“No; Raymond takes after mother,
and they tell me I’m a Thurston. Ray.
niond Is very fair, with large clear blue
eyes, and the only hair I've ever'seen,
except mother's, that could be really

galled 'golden.' The term Is used very
Inappropriately Iq describing all torts
of light hair; but Raymond's Is liter-
ully and actually the color of gold.”
Dr Mueller had still further avert-
Htltuon Cheta- «' ht " face from Sylvia. In the fading
1’rtce 25 cents,' sunset light that odd pallor was creep
ing over bis features again, a nervous
frown contracted his brows, and his
lips were grimly compressed.
They quitted the studio, and tho
sound of their retreating footsteps an-l
voices became Inaudible to the girl whu
crouched In tho shadow of the Japan
ese screen. A moment later Edith
Pritchard emerged from her place ef
ambush, and stood by the window,
nervously tapping the pane with oiw
of hen slender, dusky hands.
"I don't like thnt man! I distrust
him. I never did like him, from tho
Instant I laid eyes on him ns he canto

Is a secret- In his face—and It may be a
wild thought of mine, but I can not get
over the suspicion that he knows some,
thing of Raymond and that he is ad
friend of his at heart. I watched his
face as Sylvia spoke to l|lm Just now—
he'thought no one was looking, and ho
did not trouble himself to act a part.
• • • Can it be that he Is thinking
of 8ylvla? I'd rather see her in h et
coffin than the wife of that man!"
In some such manner as this ran
Ruth Pritchard's agitated thoughts aa
the purple dusk of the September even
ing crept amid the trees and merged
the wooded hills nnd meadows o' tho
great lake coast line Into darkness and
silence.
