West had looked everywhere for a
glimpse Of Emmy on his way, but saw
her not until he reached the hall; when
he gave last look to the top Of the OPP
posite staircase where was q vision
that could not easily be erased from
ones memory. Miss Clayton stood like
HermiOne on a pedestal, while West, the
generalization of Leontis, remained
transfixed. She was dressed In pink
wrapper, though half fitting, her grace
full figure could be traced, che held q
rose In her hand, while her eyes, spark
ling with tears. were fixed on him, her
long golden hair hung in loose masses,
her face lighted with a smile, which few
could have seen without q feeling of
alteration. West would have given ten
years Of his life to have pressed her to
his breast. At this moment servant
appeared; Emmy hastely pressed the
rose to her lips, threw Is to her lover and
disappeared. Both had kept their prom
ise. so far all was we'll; eagerly West
caught the precious blossom and fer
vently kissed 1t; the old servant
saw the last act and smiled
deferent TALLY, as West passed out Of the
door held open for him.
Our hero descended two or three steps
when he suddenly stopped and looked AT

It was easy to see both had met before.
Vests face Wac mixture Of hatred and
contempt. while the others was nvid
with fear and anger; he bowed bis head
under the steady gaze Of bis enemy. and
bis eyes rested on the rose. Like flash
the truth dawned upon his suspecting
mind a. to the donor. He ground bis
teeth, and, giving one look at the silent,
sws.inspiring form above him, started
up the steps and entered the door, which
was still held open by the domestic, who
was amused at the mute but expressive
OF the two men. There was no
smile for the last conner, and could Mr..
Lawson have heard the mutterings OF
the old man as he closed the door, he
would have heard something like, THE
villen."

Beyond some light trading in bright

was only moderate TO-DAY. There Is,
however, an undertone Of confidence in
near revival OF business, but we have
little expression of any great change in
values. Indeed, if there was enough do
Ing AT present prices to keep the trade
busy this alone would be satisfactory.
From very many sources We hear from
