Two years passed rapidly and Gunnar be.
came proficient in English. He took a
lesson of one hour every evening from his
landlady's daughter, the charming Mathilda,
who, when the student with the beer base
had taken French leave (neglecting to set.
tie his board bilD, pitied the solitary young
man from the backwoods. and taught him
variety of things beside English grammar.
She was curious mixture, this fascinating
Mathilda; and Gunnar. though not lacking
in common sense, found himself unable to
judge her. Two attributes, however, he
learned to distinguish in her. He took her
to be adorably simple and kind hearted, and
full of good impulses; but he could not depy
that she was an outrageous firt. He i'm
agined, too, that she put up with HIM some
times, because she pitied his loneliness; and
at other times, for want of anybody more
desirable. When you can't get tobacco to
smoke, they say in Norway, moss is fair
substitute. Anything OF the masculine
gender was fair game for Mathilda, and her
time hung heavily on her hands when no
masculine creatures were about.
One would suppose that Gunnar, armed
with this knowledge, would have been proof
against her Establishments. But no knowl-
edge is protection against that kind of as
sault. There was to him a delicious thrill
OF danger in the situation, which to her was
entirely absent. She had seen more of the
world than he, and sometimes, in order to
tease him. gave him grandmotherly advice,
She wormed his innocent secrets out of him.
and obtained finally confession of all bis
misdeeds. He felt so desperately wicked in
having won the love of Ingerld, and then
spurned it, that it was great relief to him
to be able to call himself hard names in the
presence of sympathetic listener. He did
not fail to perceive that Mathilda, while
condemning his faithlessness, looked upon
him with ivelier interest after this conf
dence, and he could not help feeling darkly
heroic, in the midst of all his wickedness.
What lovely character he argued, this
gentle maiden must have, to forgive ali his
past, and treat him with such Kindness and
sweet consideration. Why, know
ing how disinterested she was.
should be hold back from her his other
and far more important secret? He had re-
peatedly limited at it in her presence, and
though her curiosity had been vaguely
piqued, she had failed to rise to the occa-
sion. She treated his mysterious illusions
as if she only half believed them, and re-
piled to his dark observations with an ab-
sentminded vivacity which tried him sorely.
He felt at last that his selfrespect compelled
him to reveal the plot of which he was both
victim and author. He was irritated beyond
all endurance, and anticipated with NOR
bid satisfaction the sensation he would
make when he should explode his bomb.
But here he was again destined to disap-
pointment. The shrewd Mathilda BETRAYED
no great astonishment. He saw BY the
glance she gave him from under her long
lashes that she thought he was romancing.
but was too considerate to tell him 80. He

Gunnar without undisguising himself as
sumed the proposed mission. He began
dimly to comprehend that his father, driven
and impelled by his genius, which was an
overmastering force in his life, could not be
Judged by the same standard as lesser men.
But just as he had risen to receive Mr.. Nor
mans thanks, something touched him with
a cold horror and sent shudder down his
back. His revenge His wretched revenge!
He was about to dishonor his father just as
he was showing himself most honorable
But perhaps there was yet time 1t was 10
o'clock and the papers scarcely went 70 press
until / or 2 in the morning. With
his head in q whirl be rushed
out of the front door, hired horse
at a neighboring stable and drove to
Wicker Park. There he had stormy inter-
view with Mathilda, in which dainty little
cloven hoof of mercenary interest peeped
forth all too plainly from under the en-
broidered skirts. She had check for $50
in her pocket, which she had received from
the Daily Trombone for the spicy revela-
tions regarding Mr.. Norman's wickedness,
and she was naturally reluctant to part with
it. But in return for Gunnar's promissory
note for $3.50, she finally released her tight
little clutch, and gave it up; but like great
many people who are too clever TOR their own
good, Mathilda had really outwitted herself.
She had made 500, but she had lost q
lover She had dim presentlment when
her excitement had cooled, that Gunnar's
love for her had received a mortal wound;
and 10 this presentiment she was right.
The return of the check, the declaration
of the falsity Of the alleged revelations, and
the threat of n suit for libel suff1eed after
considerable discussion, to make The
Trombone renounce the promising sensa-
tion. Gunnar, to make assurance doubly
sure, remained to see the manuscript and
