CHAPTER XVII—Concluded.
Lady Lambart had the boot of ex.
cui.es for paying a visit to Countess
Radepolskoi, as by this time she had
heard of the robbery, the sole subject
of conversation among tho guests of the
hotel.
When they first made acquaintance,
Lady Lambart and the Countess Rade-
poLkol had seen a good deal of each
other. The countess had been Interest
ed In Lady Lambart because she was a
friend nf John Kenrlth, and Lady Lam
bert had been Interested In the countess
because she was a friend of Mr. Trow
bridge, the handsome American mil
lionaire of whom everybody In tho Hy
dro tens talking. Of late a feeling of
constraint had arisen between them,
sad Lady Lambart guessed that the
muntess had become Jealous of Hilary
"HI. Trowbridge. Knowing nothing of
* bond between them which Elspeth
hsd . ,rly suspected, she knew no great
to - to fear tho countess. Trow-
brldgo was In love with Hilary, and
rather amused Lady Lambart to see the
pain nf another woman. Now, she de
termlned, after sympathizing duly with
Countess RadepolBkol on the loss .'of
her Jewels—quite famous throughout
the hotel—she would casually mention
Hilary's engagement, perhaps asking
with all Innocence whether the countess
had been told of It nlready by "her
friend, Mr. Trowbridge.”
Lady Lambart found the door of the
countess' sitting room ajar. She
knocked, and when there was no an
swer, pushed the door farther open. No
one was thero; but as she hesitated on
tho threshold, tho countess' French
maid looked out hurriedly from an In.
ner room.
'Where Is your mistress?” asked
Lady Lambart.
Tho woman was folding up a hand
some tea gown, and Ludy Lambart
noticed that she was very pale, with a
curious, strained look In the eyes,
If she were momentarily expecting
something alarming to happen. But,
perhaps, this was the effect upon her

rather like that. "Madame la Coun-
tesoo hoe been called away very sud
denly, mlladl," she said. "I am pack
ing her things, and will follow as soon
as I can,”
"Hone!” exclaimed Lady Lambart,
“That Is Indeed sudden. Is It on ac
count of the robbery?”
The maid’s dark face quivered for
an Instant. . ,
"Yes, mlladl; It Is on account of the
robbery." she replied.
"Surely she will come' back?" ques
tioned Lady Lambart "She has said
goodby to none of Iter friends”—
"I know, mlladl. It Is mosj unfor-
ttinnte, and Madame regrets much; but
I doubt If she will come back; though.
of course, I do not’know all her plans.'
A flash of enlightenment darted Into
Lady Ixtmbart's brain. She imagined
that Trowbridge must have told the
countess of his Intention to marry
Hilary, and that In a rage she had left
Lochraln.
"Tho Jewelry Is only an excuse," was
her thought. "The countess must have
felt she couldn't see the two together,
and so she has vanished, making some
pretense. I daresay, about Scotland
Yard. But perhaps Lady Ardcllffe will
know something about It. They were
always In each other’s pockets lately,
and now the fact that they have both
been robbed will have drawn them
even closer together.”
In any case. Trowbridge was certain
to be aware of the coumeps’ departure.
Lady Lambart told the maid that If Mr.
Trowbridge knocked at the sitting room
door he was to be Informed that Lady
Lambart had gone on to Lady Ard-
clllfc's room. , ,
A babel of voices greeted her ears
_j she knocked at Lady Ardclllte’s
door, and one broken sentence came
to her clearly. "Of course. I can’t prove
anything now, but all the same Fm
morally certain that"—
The voice came nearer; the door
was opened by the speaker. Lady Art-
cliffe herself; and at sight of Lady
Lambart she gave a little start, grow
ing red. and breaking off suddenly.

woman, somewhat stiffly, looking so

Trowbridge had Interviewed her early
In the morning, had learned from her
own lips the theory she had formed In
regard to her stolen Jewels (a thing
she had absorbed from the Countess
Radepolskoi, as she would scarcely
have been able to evolve It alone) and
had' Induced her to promise that she
would do nothing Inimical to Lady
Hilary Vane. "It Isn’t that I care for
the girl particularly," he had said. "If
I have given people any reason to
tjilnk so. It was only to shield her In
her affair with Oxford, and also be
cause you have been unkind to me late
ly. She knows we are great friends
and she and her mother may fancy I
have put these Ideas about her Into
your head. I shall think you more an
gelic than ever If you promise not to
accuse Lady , Hilary. You admit you
haven’t any real proofs; that the coun
tess has them all, and has said that
she’ll make them known this morning;
but mark my words, she'll do nothing
of the sort.’ I've been studying her
character, and have discovered that
she's as cowardly as she is selfish. She
hopes to make a catspaw of you; then,
when she has got you to do and say
exactly what she wunts she will surely
throw everything on your shoulders and
disclaim any special knowledge or re
sponsibility. Without very strong
proofs on which to found an accusation ,

Lady Ardcllffe had Anally yielded re
luctantly to Trowbrldgo’s arguments,
but she had not told him how she and
the Countess Radepolskoi had both
been talking In the hall of the hotel
the evening before against Hilary Vane
and Lady Lambart.
Lady Ardcllffe had said, what she
had already aald to Elspeth Dean, that
the two were In drendful Money dlffl-
cbltlee, and that, Unless one or both of
them could make a rich marriage (as
they were striving heart and orain to
do), she did not see at all what would
become of them.
Tho countess had added that she
would not be In the least surprised If
the mother and daughter descended to
actual theft to relieve them In their
dosperatlon. as already they must have
pawned all their own Jewelry which
was worth pawning. She would not
trust Hilary Vane alone In the room
with hers, she had continued; and
though she h.id laughed and pretended
to be half In Jest, naturally everybody
who had heard the speech remembered
after the robbery. Lady Lambart
and Hilary, congratulating themselves
on having escaped a terrible humilia

Naturally some of her most Intimate
friends had lost no time In reminding
Lady Ardcllffe of last night’s conver
sation. and all were bitterly disappoint
ed as well as surprised at the Countess
Radepolskoi' - sudden Sitting. A select
party hail been discussing the situation
In Lady Ardcllffe’s sitting room when
Lady Lambart arrived, and not a wom
an there but was conscious of a quick
ening of tho pulse when the mother of
Hilary Vane appeared at such a dra

“I shouldn’t be surprised, myself, It

"I mean that there may be those

Why shouldn't the countess bo her own

As Lady Ardcllffe spoke these words
she Ased her eyes on Lady Lambert's
face, expecting to see a change of color
come under her look. Other eyea also
were fastened eagerly upon the hand
some features; and the six self-con

"Oh, It le. Even Mr. McGowan, the

one of the ladlet. who had been most A r 'i c L , 5T. e -
bitter against Dhdy Lambart and her u xr°r-l
daughter. She was unable to resist the
temptation to tell something which
perhaps the others did not yet know.
"And really. It’s very odd; no one saw
her leave the house.”
"No doubt she had her own reasons
for wishing to get away so secretly,"
said Lady I-smbart, with a veiled sneer.
Had she but known how these half
dozen women were regarding her, even
her proud spirit would scarcely hava
ventured a sneer at the absent enemy.
Lady Ardcllffe, who had lately inode
common cause with the once despised
"foreigner," against Lady Hilary Vane,
flushed with anger. “No doubt she had
her reasons for not letting some of us

was electrical, though the did not un
derstand why.

body answered. “There was the motor

Lambart. "There ha» never been the

“You may not know her heart as well

The easiest way to strike, anil the
way perhaps to deal the hardest blow,
was to ruin Hilary Vane; but It would

separated them: ”1 have absolute proof

not In her power at the moment to have

at least so damage her reputation that
Trowbridge, no matter how much in
