she managed 20 charm poor Irving. "hay-
ing perhaps the arena all 10 herself and
he became engaged 10 her, little foresee
ing the unhappy consequences of his
thouSh.lessness.
Irving remained al Kirkcaldy seven
years, during which period the little girl
he had taught at Haddington became "a
woman. In 1918, when she was II, he
met her again in Edinburgh, and then,
for the first time, he seems 70 have dis
covered the real state Of his heart. Mrs.
OIphAnt SAYS Of this meeting, apparently
blind % as Importance:
lie found her a beautiful and viva
ci0us g,rl. with al afectiOnate recollec-
ton Of her Oh master, and the young
man found natural charm IN her so
cietv. | record this only for a most char
aCteristic mOmentary appearance which
ne makes IN the memory OF his pupil. 1t
happened that be. with natural generos-
itv. introduced some of mis- friends 70 the
same hOspltaole house. Butthe generos-
ity OF the most liberal stops somewhere.
When Irving heard the praises of these
same friends falling TOO warmly from the
young lady's lips, he could not conceal a
little piqUe and modification, which es-
capped in spite Of him. When this little
e5ulhtion was over the fair culprit turned
10 leave the room, but had scarcely passed
the door when Irving hurried after her
and called, entreaung her to return for
a moment When she came back she
found the simple hearted giant standing
penitent 10 make his confession. The
truth is, was piqued, said Irving. Il
have always been accustomed TO fancy
that stood highest IN your good opinion,
and l was jealous To hear you praise an
other man. | am sorry for what | said
Just now--that is the truth Of it, 1t is a
fair representation of his prevailing char
acteristic. He could no more have re-
tained what he felt 70 be meanness on
his mind unconfessed than he could have
persevered in the wrong"
