Innocently at a loss to understand how she

too much under the direction of the unpopular

and if we did, the knowledge should remain con-

arrived towards evening at st. AIMS on-Sea.
They found Mrs Zant waiting at thesstation.
The poor woman's joy seeing them, ex-
pressed itself like the joy of child "Oh, am
so glad! so glad" was all she could say when
they met Lucy was halfsmothered with
kisses. and was made supremely happy by "a
present of the finest doll she had ever possessed
Mrs. Zant accompanied her friends to the rooms
which had been secured at the hotel She was
able to speak confdentially to Mr.. Ray burn.
while Lucy was in the balcony hugging her doll,
and looking at the sea.
The one event that had happened during Mrs
Zants short residence at st. AIMS was the de-
parture of her brother-in-law that morning for
London. He had been called away for few
hours by business; his housekeeper expected
that he would return in time for dinner.
AS to his conduct toward Mrs. Zant he was
not only AS attentive as ever-he was almost op-
presslvely affectionate in his language and man
ner. There was no service that man could
render which he had not eagerly offered to her.
He declared that he already perceived an i'm
provement in her health. he congratulated her
on having decided to stay in his house, and las
proof, perhaps, of his sincerity he had repeat
eddy pressed her hand. Have you any idea
what all this meansl' she said simply
Mr. Rayburn kept his idea to himself He
professed ignorance; and asked next what sort
of person the housekeeper was.
Mrs. Zant shook her head ominously
Such strange creature" she said. ''and in
the habit of taking such liberties, that begin to
be afraid she is little crazy"
''Is she old womang"
''No-only middle aged. This morning. after
her master had left the house, she actually asked
