acquaintance, and it is useless to say that
this individual is thought by many to be an
Indispensable check to editors.

in his fury.

CHAPTER XVI.
A DESPERATE, DETERMINATION.

Allen smiled. The man from Billv's
Creek had cultivated his ill-temper until
he was enabled to fly into a passion on the
slightest notice. Some men do this, appar-
emily, for no other reason than to make
themselves miserable.
Growing tired of the silly fellows antics.
the editor turned to his desk and tried to
bury himself in his business. But notwith-
standing the many exciting and ludlcrous
events, his mind was not wholly won away
from the mystery which seemed to be real
~ blighting his life, and kept his thoughts
from business. In his busiest moments.
amid the most exciting events, the cry: ain

ear. The sweet, sad face of the mystic

CHAPTER XV.-Continued.

But Allen had schooled himself to bear
his sufferings without a 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 few unimportant let
tiers, one or two from old acquaintance,
congratulating him on the success of his
enterprise.
A 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 on
business. Not word of his strange adj
venture did he breathe to any one and
those who saw the young man sitting SO
calm and business-like 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.

"LoOe's Young DreGna," the old maid
answered.
every touching indeed said the editor,
with becoming gravity, partially uncon-
scious of what he was saying.

the ancient maiden, enthusiastically. "It

tenderly at him-"I was suddenly seized

a feeble attempt at blush which failed,
however, to appear on her powdered check,
''do not say it is splendid unless you really
think so. You are such person to fatter,

Allen was too deeply, too painfully an
noyed by the complications in which he
found himself to observe the coquettish
manner of the poetess, and with no other

Allen, who Sc mind had really not been

asked her to whom she alluded.

he asked, beginning to wonder why she had
taken up so much of his time.
"No, no,n she answered, holding the proc-
ious manuscript close to her heart. For .
moment he gazed at her in astonishment,
and then, before he was aware of what he
was doing, remarked:
"You arc very remarkable girl.'
Evidently putting a wrong construction
upon his words and manner, she gasped:

Although Allen had read the history of
that unfortunate gentleman, Mr.. PickWick,
yet so much was he absorbed in the mys-
terry of Turleyis Point that he had only
given a secondary thought to the. poem, and
still less to the conduct of the authoress,
and wholly failed to discover the matrmoni-
al twinkle in her eye, and was not caring to
