and Ii is surprising the Legislature
did not make some provision for it's
correction. A kitchen outside and

sadly needed.

She went and unlocked drawer

he read tue marriage notice.

''Are you telling me the truth ~

With bitter tears she told him
how it all happened. With clenched
hands he walked to and fro, then
stopped beside the cradle, and bent
over the sleeping child. Lower he
bent, until his lips touched its wee
forehead, while he murmured softly
to himself, "Mattie's baby.n
Then he turned, and kneeling be-
fore her, said, in low voice. II for

into her face. His lips twitched

He turned as he went out of the
door, and saw her standing there in
the middle of the room, with arms
Outstretched. He went back, and
putting bis arms around her,
pressed one kiss on her cheek, then
left the house, never looking back.
And she went down on her knees
beside her sleeping baby and
prayed for strength to bear heE
great trial. They never saw one
again.

CHAPTER XII

II LOVE, AND HE LOVES NE AGAIN.
Col Stukely spent a long and wearisome
afternoon dawdling about the lanes and
little clusters of laborers' cottages which
called themselves villages, entering into
conversation with every man, woman, and
child whom he could beguile into dia-
logue, and suffering intensely from his
conscientious efforts to understand patois
which was almost as foreign language
to him. But in all the flood of talk to
which he listened with sublime patience,
the good colonel could discover not one
solitary sentence bearing upon the task
which he had set himself to perform.
Riding slowly homeward he tried to
cheer himself with the notion that as he
had failed in the endeavor to trace the
footsteps of Victor Csmillac. so, also, must
Mr.. Penwern fail He had no apprehen.
