CHAPTER XI.
THE wILEs OF the SIREN,


At the other extremity of the room, fac
ing him, was large mirror, before which
stood Cora Elliston. Her back was turned
to him.
She was dressed, or rather draped, in a
sort of dresslng-gOWn of white cashmere,
without sleeves, which left her arms and
shoulders bare. Her auburn hair was
unbound and floating, and fell in heavy
masses almost to her feet. One hand
rested lightly on the toilet table, the
other held together over her bust the
folds of her dressing gown.
She was gazing at herself in the glass
and weeping bitterly.
The tears fell drop by drop on her
white, fresh bosom and glittered there
like the drops of dew which one sees
shining in the morning on the shoulders
of the marble nymphs in the garden Of
Pallayicine-
Then Eugene quietly dropped the cur
tains of the entrance and noiselessly re-
tired, taking with him, nevertheless, an
eternal souvenir of this stolen visit.
He made inquiries and finally found
the room he was in search of, and where,
shortly afterWard. he was joined by Mrs.
Elliston.
To his establishment her face was not
only serene, it was joyous.
Good evening, my dear napheWi" she
said gayly, and with peculiar emphasis
on the nephew. How very kind Of you
to comet"
Not at all. murmured Eugene, as he
took her prO6ered hand. 1T was a duty
owed you.
AND one trust you were pleased to
discharge"
You can rest assured Of that, my dear
aunt.
Il can not doubt it, she rejoined with
a smile, at the same time seating herself
on the divan by his side.
Her skirts came in contact with his limb.
The stouch thrilled him, and he began to
experience strange sensation OF fear ct
the tremendous power he reluctantly cons.
