CHAPTER XTtl
i LASS PREJ CD l C E.
But the hous" looked so sedate nml alto¬
gether respectable t-hat it seemed impossible
hut that everyt hing was as usual inside. The
door stood invitingly open, as it should on such
a balmy s'u miner evening, the light streaming
bountifully out on the walk. A on I istropho
mi rely would have left some sign, some
| fatal mark somewhere to eurdlo one's blo>xl
from afar. How foolish of this black eyed
maiden and him to rush at the top of their
speed in an agony of suspense only to Hud
Bertha sitting at the parlor tab! in.Id eyed
and serene as he had used to know her! Sho
had only stepped across tho stn et perhaps.
How she would vronder to see him hurry¬
ing in his unreasonable fear into her pres¬
ence! But he would pour into her ears such
a torrent of words of love that she would
bless him a thousand times that he had eomo
back, and their happiness would date from
to-night. Perhaps she had tender confi¬
dences for him, too, of how wonderfully sho
had grown into the love he had longed for,
and she would whisper to him that the few
weeks of estrangement had been a blessing of
God for her, and he need never again com¬
plain of tho coldness of her love. Life is not
so serious and tragical an affair as one some
times thinks; tilings don’t always plunge
into the ruin they are pointed toward.
By the time Philip stopped into the door,
ho had fully discounted his expected relief ;
indeed, had almost persuaded himself that ho
Dad had no misgivings, there seemed so littlo
sense in misgivings.
But lie did not find the blue eyed woman ha
loved at her parlor table. He looked for a
eroehet -needle or a square of canvas, which
might show the marks of recent work; but
the round table was in perfect order. Tho
little book shaped card basket stood near tho
bronze base of the drop lamp. A largo red
morocco bound volume, called “The Dresden
Gallery,” was tilted up n little by n bits and
gold book of Swinburne’s poems, on which it
had been laid. The gracefully carved book-
rack was fuil, all but one space the volume of
poems might have fitted into.
"Just as I arranged it after tea,” said Jane
Graves, moving uneasily about.
“For heaven’s sake be still,” be exclaimed,
lie Mopped out into the hall.
"IVh;,-, hero is her shawl,” he said, with a
lightened _ heart.
“It it. her hetivv shawl that is gone;” the
girl looked peculiarly at him when she added
almost under her breath, “the one she takes
on evening drives.”
Philip shot a glanco of sudden intelli¬
gence at li'T, and terrible suggestions and
reeolj.-ctions cam-' crowding their hateful
the.usiu;:s upon him. The mad blood seemed
congesting about his heart, and yet his faeo
blazed like fire, “(food (foil!” be shouted
hoarsely, “if you dare to breathe it 1 will
choke tho envious life out of you.” Then ho
caught the boil knob at the door and rang it
fiercely, and then again, before its echoes lmd
ceased, .and again and again.
“.Vttd is there another fire, your honor?’
Tint broad faced chambermaid hud eomo
up from the kite lion ami stood with arms
akimbo, trying to make her rich Irish voice
heard above 1 he sounding gong.
“Do you kmu. win re your mistress i
“No-.t; if she bo noi inside, intitule.”
“Didn't si to go over to a neighbor's *,rue-
where?" quc.dtened Philip eagerly.
“Not (hat i S nows on, sir.”
“Has anybody been here! Didn't you tend
door, you ninny!”
‘“The bell didn't; ring till now, sir; but lave
me think a fit. ’ and the woman rub! ■ d Is. r
head medit :i ively.
“Quick," cried Philip, between hope and
fear.
“Don't scare me, sir, or I can't do nothin!;.”
lie moved bis feet restlessly on the inlaid
lut'd floor, and he had bowed bis head ns if
studying the artist's design; but it was for
fear he should catch some terrible signifi¬
cance in Jano Graves’black eyes. He could
hear Iter dress rustic; he knew she was look¬
ing at him, waiting for him to lift hi; face;
but he would not have met her eyes at that
moment for all the world.
“Yis, there was a rumblin’team come up,
and I thought I hearn a man come to t Do
dure and thin go back; but the bell didn't
ring?sir. and 1 didn't make no count on if.
No, sir, I hcvn't ltcarn missus movin' roun’
sense, and I knows sho be all over the house
before."
The creature's tongue was unloosed and
sho kept on talking, but Philip had bounded
up the broad stairs and thrown open the dot >r
of the room he thought was Bertha's.
In another moment tho gas blazed up to
the ceiling and lie stood, wild eyed, looking
from side to side as if he thought to find a
heart breaking story written ail over tho
gold pajk red walls. Then his eyes became
fixed on the black walnut bureau with its
long mirror coming down through the cen¬
ter. On tho marble slab at the foot of tho
mirror he saw a satin covered handkerchief
case, and pinned upon it a piece of paper.
In three steps be had clutched a little per¬
fumed note, with a ribbon fastened on it ns if
for a signal, a delicate bow of white ribbon.
Mr. Ellingsworth's name was written on it.
It was alt here, and yet Philip hesitated a
moment as a man would hesitate to cut off a
maimed and poisoned limb. And it was al¬
most unconsciously at last that his nervous
lingers tore the note open and let th • bit of
white ribbon flutter to the floor. He : c me 1

But every line and curve was branded for¬
ever on iiis heart.

Now bomb, tiio chambermaid, with a face
like a pumpkin and eye; like saucers, was a
suitable lay figure for such an occasion.
“IViiv■, 1;, ; e, Xorah, this is really- a very

lie turned bis .! range ly bright eyes to the
wall at the foot of lb rtha's bod.
"Mv picture, too. How the girl's heart
must have glowed night, and morning over
it.” lie took it down and held it before him
n moment.
"A foolish face," he muttered between bis
t e-h, tha wild merriment fading out of his
features. He bent and laid the picture glass
upward on tho floor, then he ground it
v o::.;ly beneath the heel of his boot, and
walked away without deigning to cast an¬
other lc«)k at it.

lie almost stumbled over Jane (Irarcs.
A green tinted cologne bottle stood nearby
and he bethought himself to dashtheeoo!
contents into her face, and felt quite n doc¬
tor's surprise to seo any good result follow his
ministrations. The banished blood stole iow-
lv back into her olive cheeks. He bent over
her and lifted her shapely little hands, ns
dainty as a princess', and tried to arrange
them in some graceful position. How pretty
she was: if her lips were a little full that was
a very pardonable fault.
A Midden mad thought warmed his body;
why not wait till sha opened her eyes, this
charming little girl, and then swear to her
that he loved her! What was love then that
such a pretty face and form as this should
not have it? Site eyas no cold woman; her
kisses and endearments—but his eyes had
grown cold and hard while he looked at her.

veins, could still for one moment the i: tutor- j

In Bertha Ellingsworth's own parlor it
was, with her mother’s face looking down
from the paint'd canvas, in the room where
the daughter of tho house had so*coklly en¬
tertained tho heir of tho Breton mills. Ah!
yes, and where sho had taught Curran, the
prophet of the poor, to love her, and she the
very essence of tho spirit he taught them to
hate. But how her proud face would w ince
now! If she were only here! Her father,
the haughtiest of men, to everybody in t he
great world beneath him cold as an iceberg,
they said, arrogant us any duke of courtly
circle, could it be' be praying, with Lot
breath, the iove and the hand of his servant
maid! Could it bo bo holding her so fondly
in bis arms, where he might have gathered
coy daine.s of the stateliest rank, lavishing
honeyed words and mad endearments on his
poor servant girl, whoso only nice dress it, w as
he was crushing so recklessly! Ah! it wan
worth the cost, if she had to tear her heart
out, for all that wealth can buy will be hers.
Site nasties her burning fare on his shoul¬
der and t-mpts hint to new caresses and new
words of folly, that, he may not remember
yet what a strange thing it is that lie is
doing; that lie not think of repenting until
his enthralled senses shall make him forget
everything else rather than this sweet hour.
Her wildest dreams are realized. Sho will lie
one of the rich and the great whom the rest
of the world bow down to. She will mako
her husband's—yes, this man to be her hus¬
band, why should she he ashamed with him—
she will make his friends all envy him ids
beautiful wife; and as for their faded, fash¬
ionable women, with limp backs and blood¬
less veins, how it will plot, her to study the
signs of jealousy on their listless faces. And
Bertha Ellingsworth’s proud, false heart will
ache with shame over the low born woman
whom her father has made bis wife.
“Has the train gone for the west?" asked a
breathless voice at the Lockout station.
“It's thirty minutes behind its time,"
growled tho ticket ngept. It was Philip
Breton, who went back to the post to tie his
hors ■ more securely. “Poor Joe, poor old
boy," the lug white horse seemed more like
to fall dead in Ills tracks than to try to It uk
away. "A pretty hard gallop, wasn’t it, Joe,
your breath will come easier in a minute, old
horse.”
His time was precious, but he lingered in
au uncontrollable terra, f what he lmd eomo
so far to see. Ho had thought he wanted to
make sure. There might bo some mistake in
the note, or even now, if she had changed her
mind—but it was all folly, he saw it now.
He had forgotten nil reason in one wild long¬
ing to seo Bertha again. But what was the
ure of harrowing up his soul with nev/ pic¬
tures lie would pray God in vain to wipo out
of bis memory ? But he had come so far,
perhaps it would do no harm to look ;i t her
once more. He had turned and was.
walking along the platform, toward the
ladies’ waiting room, lie glanced up
