Mrs. Thurston asked, with very natural curiosity as well as a little Impatience. Sylvia proceeded to give the desired Information. In a somewhat mechani cal voice, and just then Raymond and the judge entered the room and became also listeners to the tale. "I must say I couldn't have believed that Dr. Mueller was so thin-skinned a chap a* that!” the judge commented, with a puzzled frown. "It wouldn’t have seriously affected Raymond's nerves, 1 Imagine to behold him even under the extraordinary physical disad vantage of a twisted ankle." "Well, no; I should think not," Ray mond assented. "Besides, I daresay I could have been of some use to him, although I am not very much of a aurgeon." Sylvia was silent; she still felt puz zled, notwithstanding this letter of ex planation. Somehow Mueller's account of the matter failed to convince her, there was an underlying tone In his let ter that vaguely mystified her. although she could not have explained why. "Well, well. I am very sorry Indeed about this," Mrs. Thurston said, In her comfortably sympathetic way. "Godfrey, dear, I hope you will call over to The Hollow, after breakfast to morrow. Perhaps, Indeed, he may feel well enough by that time to come back here with you to lunch." CHAPTER XXXVIII. Basil Meets Raymond, When Sylvia Thurston came down to breakfast on the following morning she fouhd on her plate a second letter from Carl Mueller. It had *been sent over from The Hollow a few minutes be fore. It was merely half a sheet in length and It conveyed the tidings that his foot was progressing fav-.ably, but that he feared he could not hope to call at Moorcombe that day, after all. "I shall have to rest tho feet. I find when I try to use It It becomes pain ful. Old Jaco cautions mo to remain at home for this day at least, and, as he Is my physician extraordinary, I suppose there Is nothing for It but to take his advice.” Sylvia read this paragraph aloud for her father and mother and Ray mond. Mrs. Thurston heaved a long sigh of sympathetic concern. "I am so sorry. But he Is quite right to remain at home until he Is better. I wish you would call over to Tho Hol low after breakfast, Godfrey, and see him." "I mean to do so, my dear. Will you come, Raymond?" "Well, as ho evidently doesn’t wish me to behold him under the present distressing circumstances, perhaps It would be as well to wait until he pre sents himself here, don't you think?" "Well, I suppose you're right there; I had forgotten. I hope he won't mind me." Til call at the door, anyway, and ask for him." "And you and I will go for a glorious ramble for miles and miles, Sylvia,” Raymond said. "It Is just the day for a beach walk—bright, breezy and brac ing—typical October day. "Let us get away soon, Sylvia. First of all, I've got to dash off a couple of letters, just to report myself to those artists who were with me at Madrid; but that won’t delay me long." Raymond Thurston left the room and swung upstairs with a gay song on his lips. was nearly 12 o’clock when Sylvia and Raymond started forth for their ramble. They went first of all to the woods and entered beneath the ruddy quivering roof of the spreading beeches. The ground was thickly strewn with faded leaves, yellow, red, bronze and russet, and In every rush and whirl of the wind a rustling shower of gold and crimson was tossed ruthlessly from “Jamestown Special” NORFOLK, VA.

"The painting room Is open, think Ruth must be Inside." Syl via said, as they drew near the hut, "That girl haunta this spot." "Yea, the door is unlocked. I am glad of It. I have not been In the painting room for a long time now.” At this moment the door of the wood land studio was pulled open and Ruth stood smilingly on the threshold. "You told ine you and Sylvia were going for a walk, Raymond—and I was hoping you'd come this way—and I guessed you would.” Ruth said; and as Sylvia looked at the girl Hhe struck with the pallor of Ruth’s face and the dark circles under her hag gard eyea. "Well, good day for tho present, Ruth," Raymond said, as, after a look around, he touched the girl's dark head with caressing fingers, and then stepped Into tho open air. "Are you coining, Sylvia?" "Yes, In a few minutes. You can stroll on, Raymond. I have a word to say to Ruth." Sylvia had decided to avail herself of this opportunity to say a few serious words to Ruth Pritchard on the sub ject of her health, and of the necessity of seeing Dr. Pearil about It at once. Raymond’s remarks of the previous afternoon had startled his sister, and Ruth’s appearance and manner today An Encounter. Almost without thinking where he went, Raymond turned his steps in the direction of the Moorcombe grounds. He passed through an iron gate with a moss-grown stile beside it. "Glorious! glorious!" Raymond cried, speaking aloud in the sheer joy of the { moment. Almost as the words passed his lips ! lie started and recoiled with an excla- j inatlnn of surprise and annoyance. I Basil Thurston had suddenly risen I from behind a knoll, and was now staring into his kinsman’s face with j look of sudden defiance In his somber | eyes. An awkward silence followed. " Basil Thurston was one of the last | men on earth Raymond had expected j to meet In this solitary spot. For a moment he was undecided ns to what course to take in this unlooked for sit. uatlon. He finally advanced a few steps toward his silent cousin. "I was very* much surprised to get that extraordinary letter of yours some weeks ag4>. Basil. I did not answer, as I considered that It really was a kind of letter that did not deserve an answer. I think you ought to be thor- f oughly ashamed of yourself, I must say, * for having written it." v j "Do you. Indeed? Well, perhaps It ? will add to your surprise to learn now that I am not n the least ashamed of It, and that I meant every word of It, moreover!"
