••Hello:” cried a voice ao suddenly
tbat they both start td violently. ”1 come
to seek my friend Crosble, end lo: I
find tbat he has discovered a friend in
these wilds! How do you do. Mia-
Burnside. I did not know that yotsand
Lionel were acquaintances.”
•'Neither were we until live minutes
ago.” (Five minutes'.)
-it was all Flossie's doing." explain
ed Croabie. "I never even beard Mis;-.
Burnside's name until you uieiHioned
It. Perhaps you will Introduce ua
eiucc Flossie omitted that formality."
”1 must go home,” cried the girl.
Jumping to her feet, "or the 'august
presence' will think her dmling Float*!?
is lest. She's quite dry now, isn't sh?,
Mr. Crosble?”
• Miss Burnside, will ycu permit me
to introduce my friend, Mr. Lionel
Cro&bie, of the engineers; Miss Betty
Burnside.”
They both bowed ceremoniously, but
while Betty’s eyes sparkled mischiev
ously, Lionel's face wore a frown.
He picked up his rod and basket, and
asked if he might sec Miss Burnside
home, whereupon Masterscn declared
that he would go. too# Crosbie would
never be able to find his way from
Castle Burnside to Yarrows.
Miss Betty said she would be charm
ed to have their company, only one or
them must carry Flossie to save her
damp fur from getting soiled by the
dust. Crosble proposed that, ao his
fishing basket was empt--, the tiny dog
might be conveyed in that. The idea
delighted Betty, and so the party set j
off.
When they reached the castle Bet-;
ty begged the young men to come in, j
saying that she would like to introduce
Mr. Crosble to her aunt, Larly Burn- j
side, whom she irreverently nicknamed;
the “august presence,” because her
Christian name happened to be Augus
ta!
Masterson would not, however, ac
cept the invitation and the young men

' into Sir Malcolm's library. His heart
was beating lively, though h# felt no
aa to the result of bia mission.
Did n *t bo and Betty love one anoih-
and was h» not her equal in family,
■ in ptigition, 1n everything? Hi* com
mon M**se> lold h,n. that her uncle
«ou!.1 not. In renr-n. refuse him the
1 hntid of h!» beiovad. The hsronet did
not keep him waiting long- "Ah, how
do. Croebie?” The greeting wns the
as usual, but the
the countenance waa discouraging.
1 Idonel waa surprised to find h.mself
1 stammering, stumbling over the speech
1 which he had smaginol would have fal
i len glibly from hit Ups. Though his
words were heaitatiog. It if true, Ills
uiiaiiing was clear enough to hla Inter
mix u tor. Sir Malcolm cleared his
throat and the lines about bis hard
It .uel mouth seemed to become more rt
gtd.
“l regret to have to toll you, Mr.
| Crosbie. that this mailer can go no
furtbev; my niece's affections are al
-1 ready engaged.”
Lionel started up, bis face crimson,
f "lt is not true," he rrled, ‘'you must
! be mistaken; 1 must hear it from her
| own lips before I can believe it, Bhe,
who is truth itself, could not act such
i a oat t!”
I “Girls will be girls,"said Mr. Mal
colm. and then added, with a sneer:
"You must recollect that my niece Is
j accustomed to admiration, and that she
l« not In the habit of thinking that
i every fool who pays her a few compli
ments Is in love with her.” With dilfi-
Iculty Lionel restrained himself from
making a retort he would regre* la
ter.
“May I ask,” be said, “whether apart
from your niece’s feelings you have any
objection to me as a husband for
her?”
Sir Malcolm became crimson as he
replied, "I will not permit you to pro
pose to her. There are grave reasons
why she cannot be your wife.” “I am
entitled to know the reasons,” said Lio
nel, “and if they exist anywhere but in
your imagination I can overcome
them.”
He then proceeded to state the cir
cumstances of his family, his means
and social position, to none of which
idid Sir Malcolm pay any attention,
J and wound up by demanding the name
j of his rival in Miss Burnside's affec- j
I tions.
“That I meat certainly will not tell j
| you," cried Mr. Malcolm; “but marry!
I her you shall not; L will never give my j
consent! ”
I He was purple with fury. “I tell you
! you shall not marry her. There are In
surmountable objections to such a un
ion.”
“And I recognize none,” said the ■
lover. “If she cares for me I shall j
marry her in spite of you. You seemj

The evening of the masked ball ar
| rived. The hr:iitancy of the areae cx-,
ceeded anything ever seen in the
county. Betty loohed-exquialte as Ju-'
lift, and of ootirae Lionel adopted the 1
costume of Romeo. All the gticdtj
wue to remain Incognito lint 11 mld- i
night, when at a given signal everyone,
waa to unmask The host and ho»- j
tew alone were exempt from the uni
versal rule.
Everyone had arrived and the mer-,
rimoitt was at its height when a foot
man came to Sir Malcolm and inform
ed him that t> masked gentleman, who!
would not give Ills name, awaited him
in the library. Sir Malcolm, wbo only
thought the interview was some Jcke,
on the part of one of his guests, and
who was quite entering Into the spirit
erf the fete, wi-nt at onre to the library.
The masked black domino who awaited
him closed the door carefully and,
pointing to a chair, seated himself op
posite.
“1 have eome lo you. Bir Malcolm,”
said the inask In a mysterious voice,
"un a matter that affects your position
and even your title.”'
Sir Malcolm felt a cold chill run
through him, but he answered, bold
ly:
“My good sir, no trumped up tale can
in any way affect either.my title or my
position, so that we need not continue
the subject any further.”
The mask bewod and handed Sir
Malcolm an official looking envelope,
and requested him to road what it en
elosed.
The letter was from a firm of New
York lawyers, offering to prove, if it
were made worth their while, that toe
present baronet, Sir Malcolm Burnside,
was not the rightful heir, as the son
of the late brother, Sir Robert, was
still living. The letter further stated
that the real heir was In ignorance of
his claims and that the lawyers, who
had come into the possession of the
facts accidentally, would take no fur
ther stops unles a substantial amount
were forthcoming to indemnify them
for cost of case.
As he finished reading th- document
i toe hand that held the paper tremb
| led.
j “Who are you that brings this absurd
tissue of lies?” he demanded.
, “It matters nothing who I am, and I
[may tell you that you are acting fool
ishly If you disregard this warning, r
am hfie to make a proposition to you—
a bargain you may call it."
The black domino here drew his chair
close to Sir Malcolm.
"Either you give your full consent to
the marriage of your niece With Lionel
