CHAPTER XII

Norma was exultant. Tho thing she
had louged, thirsted and well nigh
prayed for was coming to pass. Thorns
would be free man once moro, free
to come back to fer, free TO bring
again tho old sweetness to her life,
free to renew the spring of years ago.
Sitting by the library fire in the gloam-
ing after her cousins departure, Norma
dreamed dreams and was happy-her
eyes softened and her lips smiled. Then
her face darkened slowly and the hands
in her lap clinched themselves. In her
fierce joy in the possibility of her re-
ward coming to her at last, was mingled
q dread that the cup might be dashed
from her lips a second time.
During the first couple of months after
the removal to Virginia Norma had re-
Taxed her constant, imperceptible watch
over Thorne. He had accompanied them
to the new home unsolicited; and hav-
ing come, he had remained, Small won
der that Norma had been deceived; for
vanity aside, she could not help but
know that no woman in that region
not even Pocahontas Mason-was her
peer in beauty, wit or accomplishments.
What had she to fear, with habit and
contrast both in her favor? Norma neg
lected to provide against one subtle and
most powerful Internationally.
For the past few weeks, first one
thing, then another; trifes light as air,
but forging . chain heavy enough to
link suspicion with certainty, had filled

preference for his cousins society. The
thin edge of the wedge was in, and but
for the move to Virginia and its ill
starred consequences the inevitable re-
suit must have followed.
Would it follow now? A vision Of
Pocahontas, with her fair face and her
sweet, gray eyes framed in soft cloud
of white, standing on the lower step of
the stairway with Thorne beside her,
his head benz low over the hand he
clasped, rose before Norma's eyes and
caused them to burn with jealous anger.
Here was the old thing repeating itself;
here was Irritation again, the exact exe
tent of which she could not determine.
1t must be stopped at once-trampled
out ere the fame should do irremediable
damage.
But how? With the question came
the answer. Norma was sure that as
yet no knowledge of Thorne's marriage
hadever reached Pocahontas. She would
enlighten her, and in such way that, if
there had been aught of lovemaking on
the gentleman's part land Norma, know
ing her cousin, thought it probable
there had been), every look and word and
tone should seem a separate insult.
She also decided that it would be bet
ter to accept Mrs. Vincent's invitation
and return to New York for awhile.
She knew very well why the invitation
had been given, and saw through the
shallow maneuvers to win her accept
ance of it. Hugh Castleton, Mrs. Vim
cents favorite brother, was in New
York again, and she had not abandoned
her old scheme of a match between him
and her friend. Norma felt quite COM
petent to foil her friends plans in the
present as she had foiled them in the
past, so had no hesitation, on that
score, in accepting the invitation. 1t
would be better to be in New York-on
the spot, while this matter should be
pending, Thorne might need advice,
certainly would need sympathy and pet
ting; he must not learn to do without
her. Even if he had only been amusing
himself here, after his reprehensible
wont, her presence in New York could
do no harm and might be productive of
good.

need sympathy and petttn9.
within her died, but she made no sound,
for she was a proud woman-as proud
as she was passionate. She even acceded
TO the brides request, and, IS Thorne's
next of kin, led the bevy of girls selected
from the fairest of society to do honor
to the occasion; her refusal would have
excited comment. But as she stood be-
hind the woman, who she felt had usurp-
ed her place, fierce longing was in her
heart to strike her rival dead at her feet.
After the marriage she continued her
intimacy with Mrs. Thorne-and with
Mr.. Thorne. When clouds began to
gather along the matrimonial horizon,
and "rifts within the lutte" to make dis
cord of life's music, she beheld the one,
and hearkened to the other with savage
thrills of satisfaction. She did nothing
to widen the breach-Norma was too
proud to be a mischief maker, but she
did nothing to lessen it. She watched
with sullen pleasure the cleft increase to
q crack, the crack to chasn. When
the separation became an accomplished
fact, it found Norma, of course, ranged
strongly on the husbands side.
During the year which had elapsed
since Thorne's return from abroad,
Norma had contrived to establish con-
siderable influence over her cousin. She
studied him quietly and adapted herself
to his moods, never boring him with an
overdisplay of interest, never chilling
him with an absence of it. Her plan
was to make herself necessary to him,
and in part she succeeded. Thorne,
lonely and cut adrift, came more and
moro frequently to his aunt's house and
exhibited more aud more decidedly his

Fight for a Small Office.

Devotion to principle, while at all times
to be commended, is sometimes expensive.
The Returning Board of South Versailles
township said that Francis Cornell was
elected inspector of elections. His opponent
rule was granted on Cornell to show on
what ground he claimed his election. He
answered yesterday to the effect that the
netition for contest was generally irregular.
He SAYS it does not aver that the signers
voted at the election. He further states
that the request falls short, as it is only
signed by 25 men, at least four of whom did
not vote. The emoluments of the Office
amount to IS year.

ALL THE NEWS OF THE COUNTY COURTS

Mrs Zessel Mozersky Yesterday filed an
answer to the rule issued on her by her
husband, Aaron Mozersky, to compel her
to show cause why the decree of separation
should not be suspended. Mrs. Mozersky
had sued for divorce from bed and board
with alimony, on the grounds of cruelty,
and the court granted her decree Of separ-
alton, with an allowance of $50 per month.
Mozersky afterwards petitioned to have the
decree suspended.
In her answer Mrs. Mozersky asks tine
Court not to suspend the decree, alleging
that her husband has neglected to obey the
order of Court by not paying the costs in
the case. She also says that his proposition
to receive her back into his family is only
made for the purpose of escaping payment
of her allowance. She states that he has
frequently said that was his purpose, and
that when the decree should be suspended
he would compel her to live in the most un-
comfortable room or garret he can select
and give her nothing but the coarsest and
stalest bread with water. She believes he
would be more cruel than ever to her, and
she fears him and asks the Court not to
suspend the decree.
