They were approaching a Village, the
church spire just visible above the
trees, when they noticed a pretty cot
tage standing back in q small garden,
and partly concealed from the road by
high laurel hedge. A Virginia creep
er, now turning crimson, covered the
front. and several fine trees formed
leafy background.
"What charming snuggery!" ex-
claimed st. Lawrence. "lf the worst, L
think shall bury myself in such a place
as that, and forget the world and It's
evil doings.n
"But not Alone" said Douglas, with
a pang of uncomfortable jealousy.
"Oh, l don't know; we needn't settle
that now," st. Lawrence replied, eva
sively, anxious to save his friend from
pain.
AS he spoke, two persons emerged
from the porch of the cottage, and came
down the path to the gate. One was
handsome, ,dark-complexioned, snowy
looking woman; the other, rather UNI
dersized man with dark hair and whis-
kers, his appearance being that OF a
servant out of livery.
''Be sure to tell him he must come at
Once,n said the lady, as the friends
walked their horses past.
The man touched his hat with an af-
firmative answer, and then walked
away toward the railway station. The
lady returned up the path to the cot
tage.
st. Lawrence and Douglas looked at
each other in astonishment.
"Can be MISTAKEN" said the former.
II was startled at first" Douglas OBJ
served; "but think our eyes must
have deceived u.s."
81 should be inclined to imagine so
too, but that 1 feel certain that l have
seen that woman before" said st. Law
renee. "Her face seems to connect it
self with some not over-pleasant recol-
lections of my youth. But, after all, it
must be trick of fancy" he added;
''the woman allude to is probably
thousands of miles away"
"There's no saying who's away and
who isn't" remarked Douglas; lone is
always running against people in the
most extraordinary manner"
81 shouldn't be surprised" said St.
Lawrence, after pause OF consldera-
ton.
s'I verify believe you will hear of
something to your advantageous the
newspapers say-before long. l think
I am becoming PROPHETIC" observed
Douglas, with something of his former
vivacity.
.'Prophesy outlet and glass Of
good ale then" said st. Lawrence,
throwing off his train of serious
thought, and urging his horse into a
trot. THAT church spire marks the
neighborhood of an inn where anglers
much do congregate. There we shall
find good cheer"
