"Then," said Jane, 'since you know all
about it, you will not be surprised when ]
ask you to befriend me so far as to contrive
the ways and means to send him home
again"
IL will certainly use my best endeavors
to do so, Jane, if you insist but have
already found him useful, and can make
him much more SO, in yours and Helen s
service, and would dislike to give him up.
He, as the tool of Mrs Meddler and Joe
Estelle, is, TO certain extent, in their
confidence, and all that he knows, or may
learn, can squeeze out of him. In the
meantime, l promise that he shall not
molest you"
perhaps" said Helen to Jane, "you
had better engage the services of Mrs.
Meddler, for she is an adapt in the art Of
scheming, and has no scruples about the
means"
81 fear not her scheming, for myself !"
said Jane, "but her malice is to be dreaded,
and its effects have already been felt by
more than one person here
"If you allude to me, Miss Estelle, as
one of those persons" said Mr.. Lee, 81
acknowledge that l have felt it deeply,
and the more so because it has led me to
be unjust to another, to degree that
renders atonement almost impossible"
"The acknowledgement is itself an atone
ment;" said Jane, "and deeply as / am
interested for the party agrieved, l accept
it is ample satisfaction for your temporary
misconstruction.
"Accept also my warmest thanks for
your generosity, he replied, "and permit
me to tax it yet further by begging you to
obtain for me Helens forgiveness, of which
I have not yet been assured"
"There is no occasion for any interces-
sion, Mr.. Lee;" said Helen, in as firm a
tone as she could command, "the traps-
gression has been mutual-so let our for.
giveness be-"
Taking Ann Lees arm, she then left
the room, and Mr.. Lee would have fol
lowed, had not Mrs. Whitman reminded
him that Helen wished to be alone with

CHAPTER XVI.

"Why do you wish to leave the room,
Helen?" asked Ann Lee as they passed out
through the door.
"Ia am foolishly nervous sometimes, was
the answer" and when that is the case,
like to be alone. Had l ST id much lon
ger, my feelings would have become too
strong for my powers of resistance, and
would have exposed me to the ridicule of
those who only need pretext for making
me appear contemplate in the eyes of the
company"
"But now, my dear Helen, that the mis-
understanding between you and my broth
er," said Ann as they went to her room,
=" is satisfactorily explained, you should
not regard the opinions of others and suf-
fer yourself to be disturbed by that ner-
vousness of which you just now complain
ed"
at is easy for those my dear Ann whose
nerves are steady and whose hearts are
light, to imagine that others are culpable
in giving way to an excess of feeling which
is, in part, attributable to the morbid SEN
sitiveness of disordered nervous system.
In the memory of the past there is much
to disturb my peace of mind and my an
ticipations of the future bring no relief =
my presentiments are all of evil"
"You are a strange creature, Helen
"The circumstances that would add in
fnitely to the happiness of other ladies,
seem to render you miserable. You are
devotedly loved by the man you love, the
trifing misunderstanding that existed few
hours ago, is fully explained, and yet you
are still unhappy. Is there anything can

Ann, from the affectionate sympathy Of

to disard my brOther--to destroy his hap

"No, Ann, such is not my present pur-
