it was true that she had put aside, un-
answered, all her mothers pleading let
ters. But this was no errsnd Of idle lux
ury or enjoyment. This was sort of
Sister Of Mercy business. When there
was sickness or suffering. all minor
matters must be laid aside. And Clara
packed her trunk and obsyed the sum-
mons promptly.
Eustace Burgoyne met her at the sta
ton. 1t was a little embarrassing, just
at first, when Clara remembered how
they had last parted but Mr.. Bargoyne,
calm and courteous as ever. seemed to
retain no recollection OF it whatever.
"How is mamma 2" said Clara, eager
ly.
"She is better" said Mr.. Burgoyne,
helping her into the phaeton. "She was
a little fevsrish last night, but the doctor
thinks her decidedly improved this morn
ing"
"What beautiful black horse I" said
Clara, enthusiastically, as they started.
"When did mamma buy him ?"
"He does not belong to Mrs. Bur
goyne," said Eustace, as he guided the
animal carefully past steep bend in the
road. "He is mine"
"But what is yours is hers, suppose?''
impatiently retorted the girl.
Mr.. Burgoyne looked at her rather Gu
riously.
Not necessarily" said he. "Ot
course, when Mrs. Burgoyne wishes to
use him, he is at her service. But gem

"At Fort Hammersley ?" said Clara,

"Have you qusrreled-you and nam
ma 20 the girl demanded, bresthlessly.
Certainly not" Mr.. Burgoyne an
swered. 81 have the highest respect and
admiration for your mother, Miss Nor
val. Here we are"
And Glars, in a maze of bewlderment
and conjecture, alighted at the old, IA
miiiar pertico, where she had played as a
child.
Through the cool, matted hall, state
ly, gray haired gentleman came to meet
her
"How do you do, Clara, my dear ?"
said he, kindly. II am very glad to
meet you. Your mother is much better,
and l."
"Yes," said Clara, hurriedly ; "but-
but don't know who you are."
81 am Edward Burgoyne," said he
''your stepfather.''
"My-stepfsther ?" echoed Clara
And who, then, is the gentleman
who"
"Do you mean Eustsce7 ? He is my
nephew-one of the civil engineers who
are constructing the new earthworks at
Fort Hammersley.
The deep scarlet blazed into Clara's
cheeks as she remem bered the gratuitous
insults she had heaped upon Nj. Eustsce
Burgoyne's unoffending head. She bit
her lip.
II have been rude, ins olent," she NUT
tered TO herself. "Oh, what must he
think of me ?"
And, with hot tears OF useless repent
ance in her eyes, Clara went to her moth
er's room. There was at least ono conso-
lation. Mrs. Norval had not merried a
man ten years younger than herself; and
Claras stepfather seemed as if he might

All other speculative tancles were lost
in the tender shower of kisses with which
her invalid mother greeted her. And
Clara Norvsl was rather glad to leave of
that man who was not her steplather.
