could not have been more cold and piti-
less as she turned away from him with
the words:
"Unless you deserve condemnation,
you surely do not require pity, Your re-
quest Is confession, Mr.. North"
She left him then, in order to receive
some one who had just entered the
drawing-room; and North, rcviving as
II from the effects of sudden dash of
cold water, found his wits sufficiently
to resolve upon amimmediate departure.
He had succeeded, after waiting few
moments for the opportunity, in MAX
ing his adieux to Mrs Maynard, and had

CHAPTER xvI.-coNrNuEp.

CHAPTER XvL-CoNTNUED.
He had Just entered upon the quiet
vista of Delaplaine street, absorbed In
his own interesting reflections, when
his attention was idly directed toward
q gentleman in an invalid's chair
which an attentive valet was slowly
pushing along the pavement. The
thin, shrlinlien figure in its rich attire,
sparkling with diamonds and rssplen-
dent in fine linen, attracted perhaps
rather more than casual attention
from North, whose mind was impressed
by the painful contrast between the
abject wretchedness Of the invalid's
face and the pomp and splendor Of his
outward circumstances. Helpless and
suffering, he was evidently not one
whom the severe discipline of physical
afliction had softened and refined; II
was but too obvious that here was a
mind as warped and diseased as It's
frailtenement. The expression of his
face betrayed harsh, selfish nature
exaggerated almost to grotesque de.
gree by years of self-indulgence. He
appeared to be constantly on the alert
TO discover something that he might
construe into grievance. The
querulous glance Of his restless eyes
the sneering curl of his thin lips under
fierce irop-gray mustache, forestallet
all words, and were a sufficient warn
ing TO persons of acute penetration moi
to give him the provocation- for which
he was evidently watchingtoegive way
TO violent and aggressive wrath.
North was passing this gentleman
with the speculative but courteous
glance Of perfect stranger, when Il
his utter amazement he was aecosted II
the most peremptory manner. D.
=. The wheel chair was brought to |
sudden halt, while q petulant yoic'
utteikd the startling challenge:
North, you jaclanapest What d.
you mean, sir? Do you5intend To insul
me?" --
North was electrified. What had h
doneP Who was this interesting in
validp
''Some one, evidently, whom ough
to know" he thought, "and whom !
will be awkward and unfortunate h
offend. What can do TO pacify him?
Then, lifting his hat as he turne'
back to the gentleman, North said, witt
an apologetic air:
my dear sir, beg your pardon.
was preoccupied, and did not recogniz
you at all"
This statement, although offered witt
charming franlSness and suavity, wa
quite thrown away upon the deeply Of
Tended gentleman.
"0h, don't tell mel'' he cried with an
cry emphasis, looking at North wit
his shrunlen sallow face suffused witt
apurple flush, and his small black eye
flashing resentful fire. "Your wonder

Germans, pressed to explain the mean
