that she put TO him and then began to
ask few questions on his own account.
Who, for instance, was the very young
man with the fair mustache who had
taken Lady Stretteil in, and why was he
thus honored in preference to his seniors
"Oh, that is Mr.. Luscombe," Miss Street
tell replied. He has the place of honor
because he is the son of viscount and be-
cause there is nobody else of equal rank in
the room" (The others weren't lords and
ladies, then, after all)
"Oh, indeed, said Mr.. Best, with his
quasi-paternal intelligence upon the alert.

as he is noble, no doubt"
"0h, dear no." answered the girl, she is
only younger son, and he has no pro-
fession, because he unfortunately failed to
makes him very small allowance"
She concluded her sentence with sigh,
and this, together with an interchange of
meaning glances between her and the sub
ject of her remarks, which he CHANGED at
that moment quite accidentally to catch
sight of, caused the wealthy and benevo-
lent Australian to suspect the existence of
an incipient romance. "Well we'll, I"
thought he TO himself, ''if the young man
is decent sort of young man the money
difficulty can be surmounted, dare say"
He watched Mr.. Luscombe more closely
after this, and upon the whole liked the
looks of him, though he could not quite
approve of the manner in which Helen
and he were entertaining one another. 1t
cannot be necessary for woman of 43 to
put up her fan and whisper behind it to a
boy of scarcely over 90 That sort of be-

been forestalled: but he would have had
no opportunity of expressing his vexation
even If he had been disposed to do SO; for
before he could open his lips fooiman
came out of the house to announce TO
Lady Strettell, with that respectful and
nlalevolent glee which servants always
display upon such occasions, that he had
let some visitors into the drawing-room.
A minute later Mr.. Best had the Japanese
umbrella all to himself. Helen, murmur-
ing anathemas under her breath, had gone
off to welcome the intruders, and the two
young people had precipitately lied.
He did not resent this general desertion
of him. He foresaw flor, indeed, he be-
heved himself to be tolerably conversant
with the proclivites of human nature)
that Mr.. Luscombe and Miss Strettell
would not return in any great hurry; that
Helen would get rid OF her visitors, and
that ample time would be left to him for
the saying of what he had to say to her.
Meanwhile he took the liberty of lighting
a cigar and unused over his prospects,
which he had to admit were somewhat less
positive than he could have wished them
to be. A man. even though he be no

/ should be"
The tall, stalwart young man, with the
curly brown hair and the clear gray eyes,
heaved deep sigh. He did not altogether
concur in Miss Lawford's view of the sit
uation, but he could not contest her right
to dismiss him. She had her rights,
and he feared that she had also had her

to think so-although, to be sure, it was
no fault of his that his fathers bank had
come down with sudden crash or that
having been wealthy last week he was
penniless today. He said:
"0f course Mr.. Lawford is in duty
bound to require your release, Helen, and

and il is, as rule, very difficult to make

still, every rule has exceptions, and the

She was not really wanting In wisdom.
She perceived that sooner or later she
would be compelled 10 yield. There had
been one way, and only one, in which she
might have extricated herself from her
dilemma with flying colors, and she had
seen tit to scorn il. Perhaps, however, IL
was not too late to retrace her steps, ana
when Mr.. Best mentioned quietly, as a
matter of detail, that he had changed his
mind--that he now proposed to go back TO
Australia and intrust the management of
his newly-acquired English estate to
young Luscombe--she did not hesitate to
clutch the straw which, as she imagined,
he had intended to throw to her.
Forgive me- Dick, she murmured. II

wish it were in my power to do sol But it
isn't; know too much. We shall always
be friends, hope, though we shall prob
ably never meet again; but as for our
being more than friends, that, to use your
own words, is-quite impossible"
One may end as one began, by saying
that the number of impossibilities is not
quite so great as it is commonly asserted
to be. and il is likely enough that If Rich
ard Best had married Helen Strettell. he
would not have repented of his bargain,
for she was not bad sort of woman, ac-
cording to her lights, and the chances are
that she would at least have rendered his
old age less solitary than it now has every
prospect of being. But it seemed to him
quite impossible to marry woman who
had first espoused an old man and then
became enamored of boy, and, indeed
she has since contracted matrimonial
alliance with middle-aged nobleman, for
whom it Is difficult to believe that she can
have cherished any tender sentiments.
Mr. and Mrs. Luscomhe are happily
settled in the old place in Berkshire W here
due Justice is done to the land and much
mercy is shown to the tenants who in
these hard times endeavor to live upon it.
They are well-to-do couple and some day
they will be very rich for if anything in
this world can be certain il is certain that
their Australian henefactor will die a
bachelor and that Milly Luscombe will be
his sole heiress. Their Australian bene-
factor has not, however, revisited his
native land, nor, Notwithstanding their
solicitations, is their much probability of
his doing So He would like well enough
to see Milly again, but he is not equally
clear that he would like to see her hus-
band, for when every excuse that can be
urged has been urged on behalf of that
young man, the fact remains that he did,
for his own purposes, make a fool of a
woman old enough to be his mother.
