“ ‘Brentwood—Eric Brentwood,’ ”
she repeated, slowly. “Ah, yes; I
had forgotten. She did have a son;
mamma said so. Oh, if my strength
would only hold out a little longer. I
am getting so weuk, X can’t go any
farther. Must I die out hero in the
storm? Oh, Inez, Inez! Why did
yon stain your soul for a few hundred
dollars, after I had beeu so kijul to
you? If yon had been my friend, I
would not bo locked up in this room.
Ah,” she snid, alwnys in a whisper,
“now is my chance if only it will hold
my weight! Good-bye, doctor. How
can I ever repay you for your kind-
no.ss? Ah, you are goiug to Brent
wood Park? You saved my life, but I
don’t like you.”
/For a few moments she lay with her
eyes closed.
"You see, sir,” said Jock, “she
wanders."
“Yes, poor little thing! I won
der who she can bo," said Erio in a
low tone.

i “I am doctoring hor,” put in the
. old woman, “and 1 don't think she’ll
Kjilie, either. This is not tho first oase
of this kind I’ve 'tended to.”
Eric did not answer her, for his ot-
tnotion was drawn baok to the un
known girl who began to talk again.
“Erio Brentwood,” she was saying
to herself. “What a pretty name!
I* know I shall liko him when I see
him.”
Although Eric know that her senses
wore wandering, his pulses thrilled aB

sweetly. No uso to longer misunder

corns!
■When Eric Brentwood returned to
Brentwood Park, he left hiB heart be
hind him in the keeping of the delir
ious girl lying on the conch in the
gipsy tent.
He remembered every word she had
uttered in her delirium, and thought
with the gipsy that she must have had
some strange experiences in her life.
She had talked of being locked in a
room; of the treachery of someone sho
had called Inez, nud then of the kind
ness of some doctor. But uppermost
in Eric Brentwood’s mind were the
words sho spoke in reference to him.
“Ah, if she could only have said
those words and meant them when she
wus conscious of her utterance,” ho
murmured.
Every day he meant to visit the
camp and do what he could for the
girl he loved. For he acknowledged
to himself that lie loved the unknown
girl with nil the fervor and passion of
bis nature. Never before had he felt
for woman as he did for tho little suf
ferer who had stolen his heart, and he
knew that he wonld never be happy
agaiu unless he won her for his own.
He did not think that she had heard
the name of Brentwood before, but at
tributed her repetition of the name so
many times solely to her delirious rav
ings. Had he only known who she
really was! Surely fate plays strange
tricks sometimes.
Here wns tlie son of the friend to
whom her motlior hnd directed her to
go (for, of course, the reader knows
that the girl was Breta Danton), all
unconscious of tho identity of the girl
who had won his heart without an ef
fort.
Had he been seeking such a person
as Breta Danton, her strange words
might have led him to suspect that she
hud heard of Brentwood Park. But he
supposed Breta Dnnton (?) to be in the
home of her grandfather, whither she
had gone in the company of Cecil
Doniphan; therefore he had no idea
that the little stranger knew aught of
him or his mother.
Every morning and evening for a
whole week found Eric Brentwood by
her side, and although she wub gain
ing in strength she was still delirious.
Ho ofteu did she repent the same words,
that Eric knew it all by heart, and as
soon as she opened her eyes with the
light of reason, he intended to ask her
to tell to him her history; and if she
needed a friend he would be the one
to act that part.
But he was destined to bo disap
pointed in his hopes. On the eighth
day he arose early as usual, and pre
pared to visit his little love, as he
called her to himself.
Arriving at the camp, the first one
he came across wns the gipsy Jock,
who was gathering sticks to kindle a
fire.
“How is she this morning?” was the
first question he asked.
“She’s gone, sir,” returned Jock.
Hnd a thunderbolt dropped at his
feet, Erio Brentwood would not have
bepn more shocked or surprised.
“Gone!” he exejaimed, when he
could find his [voice. “Gone where?
how? Why, man, she was too ill, be
sides being ont of her mind.”
“I know that, sir; but they insisted
on taking her uwny with them.”
“They? Who?” ho asked excitedly.
“Why, the gent and lady that enme
for her. The gent came last night just-
aftor you left. Ho said he hnd been
hunting everywhere for hor, and early
this morning, just at daybreak, he and
a lady came with a carriage and took
her with them.”
“Who were they? Did they tell you
their names or hers?” asked Erio,
whose excitement increased ns ho be
gan to fear that she wus iu the hnuds
of enemies.
“They said their name was Downes,
and the man clnimed the sick lady as
his wife. And the worst of it is, sir,
he said that sho wan crazy and hail
escaped from them, and that it was
not .the result of her illness at all—the
way she talked.”
“I don’t believe it," cried Erio.
“From the words she said I believe
that she has enemies, and that she has
fallen into their hnuds.”
“Well, sir, if you remember, she
kept saying that she was locked in a
room, and, perhaps, after all, Bhe
wasn’t right iu her head.”
Erio Brentwood’s faoo was as white
ns death, and he trembled visit ly.
Suddenly ho exclaimed:
"That child is not insane! I won’t
believe itl Neither will I believe that
she is married. There is some foul
ploy at work, and I moan to get at the
bottom of it. Doscribe the man and
woman to me and I’ll give you a flve-
dollar bill.”
"The man was of medium height,
with very dark hair, eyes and inus-
taohe. He looked liko a gentleman,
from the clothes he wore down to his
boots. The lady hnd on a thick vail,
so I could not tell you whnt she looked
like, beyond that sho wns not very
short nor very tall, and rather slender.
He said that she was his sister. And,
by the way, he gave me ten dollars to
pay for our trouble."
“Where did they come from?"
aBked Eric.
“From New York, he said, but they
had taken a country house about ten
miles from here, aud it wns from there
the lady escaped, the night of that
terrible storm.”
“Here, Jack, take this bill, nnd
some time I may need your services
toidentiy that man and woman.” ’
"Why, sir!” exclaimed the gipsy.
“Do you still doubt that sho is n
lunatic?"
“I do,” ho returned. “Audi moan
to prove that doubt. Something
withiu me, call it instinct or what you
will, tells me that the poor little girl
is in danger and neods a friond. I
moan to find out who and what are
the persons who hove carried her
away, when any one might know she
was in no condition to be moved.
There is a mystery connected with
that child, and I mean to solve it if it
takes me £ lifetime," said Erio Brent
wood, in a solemn and agitated voice,
CJHAPTEr. XVII.
"she has escaped!"
We will go back to the night of
Breta Danton’s escape from the house
of Nita. The raging of the tempeBt
utterly drowned whatever noise she
may bate mode. Nila was so fright
ened that wild horses oould not have
dragged her from the corner where
she orouched in fear aud trembling,
covering her eyes to keep out the
lightning. She gave no thought to
the girl upstairs, but all during the
night from the time the storm com
menced until it ceased she never
moved once from that spot. Bhe sat
as if paralyzed, only showing signs of
life when a clapof thunder harderthan
the rest shook the house.
But at last the storm came to on
end, os all things do. Then she rose
to her feet aud went to the window to
peer out. Yes, it had even stopped
raining, and a stray star could be seen
here and there iu the heavens. Satis
fying herself that the danger was all
over, her thoughts turned to her pris
oner.
“Uh!” she cried. “What a night I
have put ini I wonder how that girl
stood it? I dare say she has fainted
from fright. I came very near it my
self. However, I must go up and see.”
Taking the lamp in her hand, she
ascended the stairs, and, unlocking
the door, entered the room.
The first thing that caught her eye
was the strip of cotton tied from the
bedpost to the bureau, and, going
nearer, she saw that the window was
up and that the carpet was soaked with
rain. But where was the girl? She
looked around, expecting to find hor
crouching in some corner. The room
was empty. • Then she realized the
situation for the first time.
“Jerusalem! She lias escaped!” she
cried. “Escaped on such a night as
we hadl What a nervejshe must have!
But Carlos! When he hears of thisl”
And she turns a shade paler as she
imagines his wrath. “But”—with a
hopeful expression—“perhaps she has
just made her escape, and I may be
able to find her. But nol If that was
the case the carpet would not be
soaked. Bhe has been gone all night.
She took her clianoe while I was down
stairs, scared out of my wits. I wish
I could overcomo my terror of a storm;
but I can’t, and that’s all there is of it.
But won’t Carlos be angry with me for
this night’s work! What shall I do?”
she said again and ngain. “Oue thing
is certain, I must let him know. That’B
all that I can do now. After all, I feel
half glad that she has escaped. Iti s
only the fear of what he will do that
makos me shudder. I will send him
a letter in the morning.”
Closing the window she took up her
lamp and descended the stairs to the
room below, where she immediately
found pen and ink and began the let
ter, so sho could moil it as soon as day
broke.
“I wonder where sho went,” she
kept saying to liorJelf. “And suoh a
night! I wonder that she didn’t drop
dend with fright. How could she pick
up the courage to go out in that storm?
Uh! No ono could have induced me
to ilo it!”
And, with a shudder, she arose and
mndo rendy to lie down until dayhroak,
when sho must bo up and doing.
CHAPTER XVIII.
ON MISCHIEF BENT.
Carlos Monteri called every morning
at the postoifice to soo if there wero
any letters for him, and on the day fol
lowing Breta’s osaape ho found one
awaiting him, in Nitn’s handwriting.
“Ah! What’s up now, I wonder?”
he said half aloud.
As he found himself alone, he toro
open the envelope and bogan to read
the closely written lines. 1
“Well, of all things holy!” he ex
claimed. “A nice watch she has kepton
the girl! I might have known the idiot
wonld hnve let her Blip through hor
fingers. I did not intend that she
should come to tho front just yet. I
must try some means to prevent it. If
she has readied Brentwood Park, the
jig is up for Inez. I’ll have to call on
hor and tell her tho newB. My! But
won’t she quake in her shoes!”
A half-hour later, Carlos Monteri as
cended the steps of Ravensmere and
sent his card up to Miss Danton.
He had lost no time in making him
self known to Inez after finding out her
destination, and now he was a frequent
caller at Ravensmere as the friend of
Miss Danton.
Bhe hastily descended to the draw
ing-room upon receiving his card.
■ “Ah, you did well to make haste!”
he said to her. “I have bad news to
impart. Breta Danton has escaped.”
“What!” Blie exclaimed, in sup
pressed tones.
“Yor understood, did you not?”
“But how? You told me there was
no clianoe of her escaping."
“Well, that doesn’t alter tho fact in
the least. Bhe escaped during tho
Btorrn the other night.”
“Whnt shall I do? Oh, what shnll
I do? Carlos, you must help me.”
“If sit# has arrived at Brentwood
Park, you have lost tho gamo; but if
not, there still may be a chnnco for
you. The only way that I see out of
it is to traoe her steps aud find out
where Bhe is; their we can better tell
how to get her into our power again.”
“I will go with you, Carlos, I will
tell them here that I am going to see
Mrs. Brentwood, and you aud I can go
to the place from which Bhe escaped
nud, at least, try to trace her. If sho
has not made herself known at Brent
wood, I have no fear that wo shnll not
succeed."
“Would it not be safer for me to go
alone?" he asked.
“No, no; I must go, too, I want to
see her myself,and have her put some
where that Bhe oannot esoapo again in
a hurry.”
“Oh, well, it doesn’t make any dif
ference to me. Since you wish to go,
be at the Btation at three. Of course,
I will be there also. I leave you to
manage, so that no one will suspect
your ■ destination. After all, this is
more your affair than it is mine.”
“Oh,Heaven!” exclaimed Inez,when
within the prooinot of her own room.
“I will not be defeated! I will not
let that white-faced girl oust me from
all this wealth! Bah! I would kill
her first. I am not one to give up
without a struggle, aud I’ll find a way
to get her out of my path. Carlos is
of more use to me thau I thought, but
onoe let mo get Breta Danton in my
dutches and then, Mr. Carlos Monteri,
I can dispense with your services al
together.”
Having made all her arrangements
for her departure, three o'clock found
her at the station awaiting the train.
Bhe had sent the aoachman home, tell
ing him that there was no necessity
for him to wait until the train started,
so there was no one to see her get on
the cars followed by Carlos Monteri.
Inez felt that she could not wait for
tho train to reaoh her destination, so
eagor was Blie to got Breta Danton
within her power ero sho made herBelf
known to Erio Brentwood and his
mother.
‘ ‘The chances are, ” sho said to Carlos,
“that, granting that she did not escape,
she lost her way. How could she
know which way to go to get to the
park, especially on such a night as
that. I feel that we shall find her.”
“Bad for you, if you don’t,” returned
he, with alialf-chuckle.

How Envelopes Were Invented.
The invention of envelopes is within
the memory of middle-aged persons,
and was the result of a Brighton (Eng
land) stationer's endeavor to make his
store look attractive. He took a fancy
for ornamenting his store windows
with high piles of paper, graduated
from the highest to the smallest size
in use. To bring his pyramid to a
point, he cut cardboard into very min-
nute squares. Tho ladies took these
cards to be small-sized note paper,
and voted itj “perfectly lovely.” So
great was tbe demand that the station
er found it desirable to cut paper the
size so much admired. But there was
the difficulty.
The little notes were so small that
when folded there was no space for
the address, so after some thought
the idea of an envelope pierced the
stationer’s brain. He had them cut
by a metal plate, and soon, so great
was the demand, he commissioned a
dozen houses to manufacture them for
him. From such small beginnings
came this important branoh of the sta
tionery business.—The Inventive Age.

Motherhood'
TTTHI8 event In the 111b of a wo- *
* I ** man is looked forward to with .
1. a feeling akin to horror—not'
because the little one ia not
weloome, but becauio tho mother l
dreads the direful conaequenooa
to herself. Those long hour* oft
agonizing labor stand out before ’
her like a hideous nightmare. An •
improper delivery, followed by’
child-bed fever, may end the scene
