CHAPTER XXXII.—Continued. A Goaaip. When ehe returned she found Aunt Letltla listening to the gossip of Mrs. Prosser, a woman who liked to talk. Mrs. Prosser was recounting with great vim the escapades In which Basil had engaged while Intoxicated In the vil lage. Aurtt Letltla had no great love for her nephew, and ahe listened with the same eagerness that Mrs. Prosser showed In relating the tale. Rose made a vigorous defense of her- brother. Bhe scored Mrs. Prosser as one of tbe scandalmongers of the neighborhood and reminded that lady that the late Mr. Prosser had not al ways stayed In the straight and narrow path, causing that lady to leave In high dudgeon. Unknown to all of them, Basil had returned to the house early In the aft ernoon, had overheard Mrs. Prosser re lating her choice bits of gossip and recognized the eagerness with which Aunt Letltla questioned the scandal monger for more details. He heard Rose’s spirited defense of hlmaelf, but this did not suffice to sus tain the good resolutions which he had made that morning, and leaving the house by a aid* entrance he spent the rest of the afternoon and the early part of the evening In the usual way, making liquor hla boon companion. Then he returned home. It was past 10 o’clbck when he pre- aented himself In the drawing room, and one glance Into her brother's flush ed face told Rose plainly enough that he had been drinking. Rose with difficulty restrained an outburst of humiliated tears aa she looked at her brother. "So. that Prosaer woman was here with her budget of cursed gossip!" Ba sil said, thickly. "The next time she ventures to Redbrow she’d better look out for squalls. If I’m In the Imme diate vicinity I'll give her a piece of my mind that will send her rattling down the avenue far more rapidly than she'll make the ascent, I promise her!” “That woman must talk or die, Ba sil; don't notice her. Every one un- derstandr that she la that kind of per son, and It doesn’t much matter, there fore. what ahe aaya,” Mias Letltla has tened to explain In vaguely soothing terms. , But Basil only muttered something In reply and then lurched out of the room and staggered up stairs to hla bed room. — '"Oh, Aunt Letty, this Is terrible!" Door Rose said, bursting Into (gars at ast. "If Basil continue, like this It will kill me!” “Hush, child; hush, darling.” Miss Letltla replied, with a break In her voice. "Roall must have heard aome of that woman’s conversation this aft ernoon and he was so upset by It that —that he drank a little too much. He’ll be hlmaelf again tomorrow, Rose, and he may never again so forget himself." But In thla hopeful prognostication Mlaa Letltla was sadly at fault. Dur ing the ensuing week Basil Thuraton went, day after day, to Cleveland, re turning sometimes at midnight tp Red- brow, and once or twice not appearing until 2 to 3 In the morning, and always hopelessly under the Influence of drink "The curse of the Thuraton, and the cause of all this trouble!” Mlaa Letltla muttered once or twice, as from the bed room window ahe beheld her grand nephew's unsteady figure approaching the front door at these unearthly hours. "How Is this to end 7 I am bewildered, because advice of any kind seems so utterly useless; and any Interference would only make things far worse, I think.” And one aftemoqp at the close of September matters reached a crisis. Basil hail gone across the meadows and had thrown hlmaelf upon a knoll In a wild, solitary spot about midway be tween Redbrow and Moorcombe. With hla cap pulled down over his bloodshot eye,-he had fallen Into a gloomy rev erie, when he was suddenly aroused by the sound of footstepa quite close to him and the next moment Sylvia's voice fell directly upon his ears. Muslltr's Wooing. Don’t press me for an answer now. Dr. Mueller, pray don’t! Tomorrow, perhaps, or next day, I will give you my reply. And now, good-by. for the present. I must ask you to leave me to myself. I want to think over every, thing, and—and I really must be alone." Basil Thuraton, peering around the corner of the ridge, saw hla cousin and Carl Mueller within twenty yards of him, and aa Sylvia spoke ahe turned away rapidly from Mueller, who said something In so low a voice that Basil could not catch the word,. Another moment and Sylvia had pasied out of sight behind the ridge, and waiting for a few minutes until Mueller had also disappeared In the op. poaite direction. Basil started up with an unsteady lurch and followed his cousin, whose retreating figure became visible to him when he had advanced beyond the barrier. "Sylvia, I want you. You muat wait for a moment,” he called to her, as he drew near. "I’ve been on the lookout for you all the afternoon and I cannot let thla chance escape." Sylvia started and looked around, and i her eyes fell upon Basil's flushed, excited face ahe recoiled a little, with faint cry of alarm. "I cannot watt now, Basil! Some other time you can see me. I really muat go thla moment,” she said, nerv ously. for she saw at once that he was undkr the Influence of drink.

Godfrey Thurston ran Into his wife's room, while that good lady was putting on a fresh blouse foridlnner that night in a-state of high excitement and triumph. "It Is all right, Mildred, about Muel- ler and tho. girl I I’ve Just been talking to him. I met him ns I was riding home.

She complained of a headache, however and I fancied, from the look of her eyes, that she had been crying. But when I questioned her she said it was the sharp wind—or something like that." ^Crying? Why should she cry over It, I'd like to know," the Judge said, busy with lace, pins, ribbons and strings. "She’s the luckiest girl in Ohio at the present moment, so she K Although Carl Mueller has lived io quietly since he catne to our neigh borhood, there’s no doubt at all of the fact that he's a wealthy man, "Why, his property In New York state Is one of the finest estates in the east. Sylvia will be i. rich woman, Mildred, and npart from that alto gether," the Judge ended, "I think Mueller a particularly nice fellow—a kind of a fellow that any girl should admire." I think the same, Godfrey. I must say, But. unfortunately, Sylvia always seemed to like Basil Thurston just a little bit too well for her peace of mind. I am sorry now that we ever allowed her to be so much with Basil, even years and years ago.” "But I never even dreamed of looking on the matter in that way. Mildred,'' the Judge said, truthfully. "I used to think It Just aa natural for Sylvia to be In Basil's company as In Raymond's." "Well, there it Is, yon see.! Wo were both mistaken. However, IJ cannot be helped now.

And she has of her own free will promised to marry Mueller. He’s greatly delighted over It, Mildred, and he seems very desirous of hurrying on the marriage. In fact, he spoke of trying to arrange It with Sylvia for some lime during next month." "Next month! Good gracious.
