CHAPTER LIu-THE CONSEQUENCES OF An
ADVERTISEMENT.

ADVERTISEMENT.
The trouble was made by Iris for her
self
She saw Fauny's advertisement Her
hrst impulse was to take her back into her
service. But she remembered tho neces-
sity for concealment. She must not place
herself-she realized already the fact that
she had done thing which would draw
upon her the vengeance of the law-and
her husband In the power Of this woman.
whose fidelity might not stand the shock
of some lit Of jealousy, rage or revenge
for fAncied slight. She must henceforth
be cut OF altogether from all her old
friends.
She therefore answered the letter by one
which contained no address. and which
she posted with her own hand at the Cen
eral Post-Oifice. She considered her words
carefully. She must not say too much or
too little.
Il inclose," she said, "a bank note for
ten pounds to assist you am about to
travel abroad. but must, under existing
circumstances, dispense with the services
OF maid In the course OF my travels
expect to be in Brussels. II, therefore.
You have anything to tell me or to ask OF
me, write to me at the Poste Restante OF
that city and In the course of six months
or so am tolerably sure to send for the
letter from you. Do not think that have
forgotten You or YOUR faithful services.
though for a moment l am not able to call
you to my side. Bs patient"
There was no address given In the letter.
This alone WAS mysterious. II Lady Harry
was in London-and the letter was posted
at the General Post-O fice-why could she
not give her address, II she was abroad.
why should she hide her address! In any
case. why should she do without maid
she who had never been without maid
20 whom q maid was as necessary - one
Of her hands. Obi she could never get
along at all without maid. Az for Iris
business in London and her part in the
conspiracy, of course Fanny neithof knew
nor suspected.
She had recourse again to her only
friend-Mrs. Vimpany-to whom she sent
Lady Harry's letter. and imploring her to
lay the whole before Mr.. Mouutjoy.
SHo u getting 20 much stronger" Mrs.
Vlmpany wrote back, that shall b able
20 tell him everything before long. Do
net b in q hurry. Let cs do nothing that
may bring trouble upon her. But I am
SIRE that something 10 going on-some-
thing wicked. have read your account
I am a. convinced as You could possibly
be that my husband and Lord Harry
arc trading on the supposed death of tho
latter. We can do no hing. Let N wait. !"
Three days afterwardsshe wrote again.

been waiting has come at LAST M.

THE English are contemplating an
idea to lay down q postal tube be-
tween Dover and Calais. The plan is
10 suspend two tubes of about yard
each in diameter by means of steel
cables across the channel, forty yards
above the level of the sea. The steel
cables vii, be fixed TO pillars at dis
tances Of about eight hundred yards,
and in each tube a little railway will
run with cars capable of CARRYING 40
pounds in weight. No parcel OF gie eater
weight than this will be taken, and the
cost is estimated a. tie modest figure
of s., OOO, 900.

alone. He told her that the consequences
Of refusal might be fatal-ab.olutely fatal
10 her future happiness. He conjured
her to believe that he was anxious for
nothing but her happiness; that he was
still-as always-her most faithful friend.
Well; he could do no more. He had not
the least expectation that his letter would
do any good he did not even believe that
Il would reach Iris. The money was re-
ceived and paid over to her own account.
There was really no reason at all why she
should place herself again in communica-
tion with those lawyers. What " ould she
do. theni One thing only remained. With
her guilty husband. this guilty woman
must remain in concealment for the rest
Of their days, or until death released her
Of the man who was pretending to b
dead. At the best, they might find some
place where there would be NO chance
Of anybody ever finding them who know
either of them before this wicked thing
was done.
He remembered the instruction given to
Fanny. She was to write to Brussels
Let her therefore write At once. Hewould
arrange what she was to say. Under his
dictation, therefore, Fanny wrote - fol-
lows:
