But Allen had schoOled himself to bear his sutferings without q word of complaint, and next morning was in his office as usual. During his absence another issue of the pa per had been published and circulated. He sat down at his desk and glanced over his mail. There were a few unimportant let ters, one or two from old appropriateness, congratulating him on the success of his enterprise.
 \ smile curled the lip of the editor as he thought how far from success this venture in the newspaper business had come To all inquiries about his absence he answered that he had been suddenly called away oil business. Not word of his strange ad- venture did he breathe to any one, and those who saw the young man sitting so calm and busness-llke at his desk never dreamed that he had come so near losing his life only the night before at the hands of the master of the stone house on the hill.

CHAPTER XVII.

HOW TURLEYS POINT DEFEATED HERSELF. When Alien Gra reached the house on the hill, instead of gong around it as he had done on former occasions he walked direct ly up to the great front gate and tried to enter it: but it was locked.
 His first thought was to scale the wall, which he could have done by going to the rear, but seeing servant in the front yard he called to him.
 = I want to see your master,n he said. The servant, who understood some En. glish, shook his head saying:
 Be monsieur goae-ze monsieur gone. Monsieur no comc-uo come bon jdltr mon- sieuri' And turning about, went away. Allen waited a long while at the gate, hoping he would see some one else to whom he could appeal. Darkness came over the earth. and he was at last forced to leave. Slowly and sadly he turned about and went down the hill. his head bowed in thought
 After all, am I not fool:' he said" Why need 1 care! What can she be to me!' But 1t was folly for him to attempt to drive her image from his mind; it had been indelibly stamped upon his heart and could never be effaced. Sine had been no c0quette seeking conqucsts; she had made no advance nor eyinced any boldness, even when visiting him by night to have him take the little boy to Frenchtown.
