CHAPTER III.

The fire roared and cracked cheerilyin
the private room at the bank, but neither
of the partners had arrived.
ss never knew him so late,' remark
ed Tom Leslie, as if finishing aloud a
puzzing conjecture.
"Who? Old Dart?''
"Mr. Dart. Yes.'
ssLeslie feels it incumbent on him to
uphold the dignity of his partners" put
in another clerk. "His breast swells
proudly with a fellow-feeling."
"What an idle set you are this morn
ng!" remarked Tom, turning from his
desk with the quick, kindly smile, e,which
made his face so pleasant to look upon.
GAS soon as am senior partner | shall
give you all a sweeping dismissal.
The listeners laughed, enjoying the
absurdity of the idea; and one or two
questioned him, with mock anxiety, as
to the treat he intended to stand them
on the occasion. Through all the
laughter Tom pursued his work, and
Dart noticed this when he entered the
bank; though it was but very curtly
that he answered Toms quiet greeting,
vet before he reached the inner door he
turned and spoke to him.
"Cold outside, Leslie. Keep up good
fires 1t is hard," he muttered to him.
self, ssto pass him without word. -
Then Mr.. Dart let the spring door close
behind him, and, sitting down in his
office-chair, leaned on one arm only-as
very calm men do when they are i'll at
ease, as we'll as tired. He was sitting
so, looking moodily down into the fire,
when Mr.. Maitland entered the room.
/ The senior partner did not turn to greet
| him; and even when Walter stood upon
the rug beside him, he did not venture
to meet his eyes.
"Maurice," began the younger man,
sI suppose may congratulate you- Il
is rather hard; yet no one ought to dc
it SO heartily as II, who know what q
good fellow you are, and what-what 8
wife you have won.' @&4s II
A glance of surprise into his friends
face, and then Mr.. Dart spoke in few
words, as was his,custom.
"She has refused me, Maitland
Refused yoatt''
Walter repeated the words, though
not tincredulously. Only truth, he knew
could have weighted them so sadly
"She has refused me, tool" he said
s.She has never cared for me but as
friend-simply and only as friend"
In few kind words to me-" sai'
Mr.. Dart, without looking up, ''she toll

And | could not ask her TOTO love me
while felt that you knew how useless
it would be-
81 do not know" returned Dart-his
words sounding very slowly after
Walters eagerness, yet all his self-com-
mand failing to hide their new ring of
hope. "Isabel has never heard word
of love from me. She is gentle and
kind and winning always but | can not
read beyond"
"To me, too, she is bright and pleas
ant always" putin Maitland, restlessly;
"and I can discover nothing more. |
fancied you could put me out of one
phase of this uncertainty"
"And you are very glad to find | can
not" said the elder partner. And then
their eyes met, with a smile that was
strangely wistful for such strong and
manly faces.
"Dart!n said Mr.. Maitland, "you
are the elder man, the richer-the bet
ter, too. You shall speak first. Do it
as soon as you CAM
Seniority has no claim in such a
case as this" said the senior partner
"We can wait.'
81 can wait no longer!" put in the
younger man, impatiently. "Any thing
will be better than this suspense. Why
on earth should we wait? Isabel knows
us both thoroughly, now. She knows
we are both too old for this love of ours
to be any thing but deeply earnest. She
knows enough of our position to make
her decision easy to her. So let us
know the worst, or-best. You have
the right to speak first"
81 will not take it," said Mr.. Dart,
speaking more quickly than he had yet
done. "Let us write. Let us write-to-
gether.'
A few minutes silence while Walter
thought this over-leaning his head on
the arm which rested on the chimney
piece.
"Let that be decided" urged Maui
rice. "We will write tomorrow. Let
her receive the two letters together, that
she may think of us together. Promise
me your letter shall be ready for to-
morrow's post.'
81 PROMISE" said Maitland, raising
his head again. ''Thank you for this
arrangement.

OF his IS kings revenue" thought Mrs.
Leslie, one Saturday morning, watching
her son cross the road, drop his gift in
to the expectant hand of the crossing
sweeper, and turn at the corner to nod
to her. He will soon expect me to
adopt few young men whose salaries
are less than his own. If he had but in
herited his fathers saving nature!" She
tried to regret this dolefully; but, after
all, she could not help the warmth of
perfect satisfaction filling her cheeks.
Even his practical father had rejoiced
that his nature was his mothers from
the time that nature began to assert it.

afterward among his school-fellows ;
"Little Leslie'' now among his fellow
clerks.
On this particular Saturday morning,
as he walked to the bank, Tom loitered
| little on one street-a quiet street of
handsome private houses, before one of
which stood a couple of cabs piled with
boxes. Tom waited long enough to be
sure that the cabs bore nothing but lug
gage. Then he walked briskly on, and,
entering the bank excitedly, told his fell
low-clerks of the arrival of the Colonel's s
household; and for fully five minutes
forgot, in his excitement, to add his
genial invitation for the morrow
When the coming of the regiment had
been discussed, and Toms pleasant in
vitation accepted, he turned to his desk,
not to loiter again throughout the day.
An hour afterward Mr. Dart drove up,
and with quiet "Good morning!''
passed through the bank to his own pri-
vate room. Here presently Mr.. Matt
land joined him, and, standing before
the fire, discussed various items of town
news-among them, of course, the ar
rival of the regiment.
"Colonel Conyngham has only one
daughter. We. must help to introduce
her. Young Dart having once belonged
to the regiment, gives it, as it were, 8
claim upon u.s.
"The Colonel's daughter will need
but little introduction, remarked
Maurice Dart, quietly.

CHAPTER IL.

f. "Dart, Maitland, Dart u Co."
The names stood unaltered on the
great plate; yet-except the sleeping
partner, away in India now-each one
represented by that sign was perfectly
aware that a great alteration had been
growing in himself ever since Colonel
Conyngham and his daughter had been
living in Highborough. The strong bank
walls no longer limited his hope and
ambition. Beyond them stood revealed
a home of love and ease, and sunshine,
brightly possible; and in this future the
only mission of the good old bank was
to furnish the home with luxury.
1t was a winter night. The bank Win
dows were bolted and barred, the great
books were locked away in the trusty
safes, and the manager was asleep up
stairs, with the loaded blunderbuss be-
side his bed. But in his brilliantly light
ed drawing-room at home the semi II
partner sat alone-a striking-looking
man in his evening dress, with the hot
house flowers fading in his coat. The
room had been filled with guests up to
this time, but now Mr.. Dart sat alone
before the fire, buried in thought

till the door was opened, and Walter
Maitland re-entered the room he had but
lately left.

said, beginning hurridly to speak, as If
