with lake III 1t, Ia winch there wert
quite number Of fish. A punt was
moored in one corner Of the lake. and a
stream ran out of it in which there were
delightful little pools for bathing and
plenty of water rats that were always
ready for romp with the terriers. In
the house were billiard table, with a
Whole set of pool balls, and room full
of guns. In the stables there were sir
or seven horses, and number of dogs
lived in different parts of the place.
There were also skittle alley and a
large kitchen garden. In fact, it was
perfect paradise, and like every other
paradise it contained an Eve-and a
serpent-both cousins of David. The
Eve was named Lucia. She was year
younger than David, but she always
showed promise Of growing into-what
she now is-the handsomest woman in
spent good deal Of her time with her
uncle, who was very fond Of her, as in
deed was everybody else.
David fell in love with her at once,
and the more he loved her the more he
disliked his other cousin Hughie. He
also despised him and considered him a
scug, which is rude word and one not
to be used to anybody who is big enough
to punch the head of the boy using it.
Indeed, though Hugh was not altogeth-
er gentleman; still less was he alto
gether cad. He was very handsome
boy and gentlemanlike enough in some
things, but he was not dressed quite
like the boys at David's school, and he
did not know how to treat servants.
Worse than all, he dropped his h's-not
always, but only if he got excited about
anything.
David will never forget the look that
came on his uncle's face when, as they
were watching county match one aft
ernoon, Hugh cried out, "Well 1T, sir;
we'll 1T indeed" He turned quite
pale and said, very quietly, Come,
boys, ! think we've seen enough of
this, :" and they had toleave the ground,
although the second inning was only
just beginning. But, in spite of this,
Lucia liked Hughie much better than
she did David. When she climbed
tree, it was always to him that she
called to help her down, and when they
played cricket she never cared how far
she had to run after the ball if Hughie
had hit it. Once-it was very hot
afternoon, and David couldn't get
Hughie out-he called out for fun,
well 1T, sir, indeed" Hughie only
laughed, but she turned as red as a
turkey cock and walked off into the
house, leaving David to field as we'll as
bowl. She and Hughie used to go off
for long walks together, leaving David
to lounge about by himself and wish
that his uncle would send Hughie back
to his mother, little knowing that the
time was close at hand when he would
be very near to being sent home in dis
grace himself.
NOW, the uncle of these boys was
man who thought great deal about
eating and drinking. Indeed he
thought of little else, for he was too
lazy to walk and too fat to care about
riding and never opened book by any
chance. One reason that he liked David
better than Hugh which at that time
he certainly did-was that Hughie had
an immense, healthy appetite. which

his luncheon badly and was very tired
and rather Disguised, for the old wom-
en- had been particularly querulous and
troublesome and even more than usual
ly inclined to overestimate the value of
their attendance at the early celebra-
ton. He had been positively refused
admission into one cottage, through the
window of which he could have sworn
he saw the burly form and coarse Irish
features OF Father Flanagan, from St.
Joseph's. His rector, too, had been
snappish and as nearly rude as a cler-
gyman ever permits himself to be to a
brother priest But he consoled him
self for these little annoyances by think
ing how short a time he should have
to endure them and how different his
positian would be i'll few years-per-
haIs months. He was expecting a re-
ply to passionate love letter which he
had written to Lucia Immediately on
his return, and as he put the key into
his door he thought how pleasant it
would be, after his hunger was salts
fed, to sit down by the window and read
the six or seven sheets of which it would
no doubt consist. Immediately he ran
up stairs and threw open the door of his
sitting room. A tall young man, whose
forehead was to some extent sinister,
argent and brickdust, and who wore
thick, yellow mustache, rose as he en-
tered, and coming toward him with a
cavalry swagger held out his hand.
"I've been making myself at home, " he
said apologetically. Hope you don't
object to smoking in your quarters.
Long time since we met, ism IT it? Don't
remember me-Hugh Elliott?"
David stared at his visitor; he had a
feeling that something had gone wrong.
''Oh, of course, " he said nervously,
taking his cousins hand and dropping
it directly. Every glad to see you, I'm
sure. I-eh-didn't know you were
in this part of the world. Very good
of you to come and look me up. You'll
have some lunch, of course.
"Oh, thanks, awfully, but I'm afraid
I've no time. There's train at 80
leave, and I had a DEVIL mean a
deuce of job to get that. No-fact
is, came up to see about-well, about
letter you wrote to Lucia" He hand
ed an envelope to David, who began to
feel rather sick.
"But," he began, with as much dig
nifty as the sudden beating of his heart
allowed, may aslS-by what right

''Oh, forheaven' S sake, don t take that

A DROPPED LETTER.

David Elliott was what is called
good boy. He thought it was wrong to
crib and would not for anything have
opened his Homer during rep"
though if the fellow next him hap
pened to have a loose leaf on his knee
that was another matter, of course, and
he saw no harm in taking a glance at
that just before getting on his legs. He
had a hatred OF bullying especially
when he first went to school-and was
always most kind to the small boys.
Every body knows that a certain amount
of discipline is good for them, and that
if they become arrogant the truest kind
ness is to show them their real position
in society, and this David always did
by moderate and judicious use of the
middle stump. He was never cruel to
dumb animals.
Cats, by the way, are not dumb an
lmals, as everybody who has ever bro
. ken cats leg With stone well knows;
indeed they are really beasts of prey,
30 that caivying them is nothing but
tiger hunting on small scale. Above
all, he never told lies. He was always
strictly accurate in his statements, and
II people sometimes carried away
wrong impression after asking him
question it was always because they
had not put it properly.
In the midsummer vacation, when
David was IA, he went to spend week
\ r two at Ingleby manor, where his I'M
\le, Sir Walter Elliott, lived. He was
much better off than David's father,
who was the youngest son and clergy
man, and from whom David had learn
ID his love of truth.
q Now Ingleby manor was very nice
place for boy to spend his summer
b0lidays in. It stood in large park

led him 70 devour anything he could
GET without much caring what it was
so long as there was plenty of it,
whereas David was much more partic-
ular, and generally took only what he
had seen his uncle take, knowing that
that was pretty certain to be the best.
1t happened about this time that
friend of Sir Walter who was in the
embassy at st. Petersburg sent him
jar of some very special Russian deli
cacy which cannot be got in England,
even if an Englishman could be found
clever enough to pronounce it's name.
1t was sort Of caviare. 1t looked like
black jam and tasted like mixture
of sea water and vinegar, but he was
charmed with his present, and as the
jar was a small one, and he had been
warned to keep it out of a draft, or
away from the light, or some such
thing, he would not trust the servants
with it, but kept it in special place
in the dining room. He did not offer
any of it to his young guests, and this
made Lucia very anxious to taste it, for
she was greedy little thing and ate
almost as much fruit as Hughie him
self.
One morning when David was pass
ing the window he peeped in and saw
Miss Lucia, with the jar in one hand
and spoon in the other, eating this
horrible mess as if it really had been
jam. He watched her for minute or
two, and then went suddenly into the
room. She screamed and dropped the
Jar on the ground, where it was
smashed. Then she began to cry and
said it was all his fault for startling
her and implored him not to tell any
body. To show how fond he was of
her David promised not to say any
thing about it, and she ran away, leav-
ing him to pick up the pieces and
scrape up as much of the caviare as he
could, which wasn't much. She did
not make her appearance at luncheon.
She sent down to say that she did not
feel very well, which, between guilty
conscience and too much cayiare, is
quite likely to have been very true.
Sir Walter looked for his precious jar,
and not seeing it told the butler to put
it on the table.
''If you please, Sir Walter, the man
said, looking shyly at David, there's
none of it left; it's all gone" ----
Sir Walter only said, "Oh, indeed, -
but he looked as if he meant to say a
good deal more at some other timel
Later in the afternoon hs sent for Davi d
and told him that the servants denied
having touched his caviare, and that
as he had been seen in the dining room
that morning he concluded that he had
eaten it. He was sorry that David
should have allowed other people to RUN
the risk of bearing unjust blame. EEe
didn't mind the loss particularly, b1nt
was sorry that David had been SO reti-
cent.
David glanced past his uncle's sad
face to where his little playmate sat ON
a window ledge, solemn look on Der
childish face.
Then David had an idea. II didnEot
take it, uncle" he said.
"Who did?''

looking at the girl. What he said, to
himself that he said was, 1t was YOU.
If misunderstood, was it his fault2
The herald., 1894-02-04

"No, doubt, no doubt, " muttered the
kindly old gentleman, with troubled
loolL, but but-rd rather you hadn't
told"
And all Hughs astonished denials did
not save him from punishment.
Fl dozen years and more have passed
over Ingleby manor and those whom it
she Uttered during these summer holt
days. Sir Walter Elliot is still alive,
butt he is getting very old, and it seems
as if he had not many more years to
live. Lucia is now spoiled beauty,
WHO rules the manor and everybody in
it. David hard working curate, and
Hugh has been sent by him to an army
tutor, has passed into and out of Sand

house is unchanged amid all the
changes, and as David stands, after
dinner, on the terrace that runs outside
the long drawing room and watches in
the clear summer sky,

his mind flies back to that unforgotten
summer when he first saw the place.
What happy time it was-after Hugh
Ead left-and what pretty child Lucia
'Easl Even then he was in love with
Iher, and now-now that she was in the

He has been in the house a week, and he
hardly dares put the question to him.
self. And yet his visit ends tomorrow
Can he go back to his dingy parish,
leaving it still unasked and unan-
swered? Suddenly white simmer
ing cloud, in the midst of which a
spark burns brightly, appears round the
corner of the house and moves toward
him with frou frou of silk. The next
minute Lucia is standing before him, a
flmy lace shawl over her dark hair, a
cigarette between her red lips and a
saucy smile in her eyes.

murely. There are no bishops about"

lights it from her awkwardly, for he is
no smoker, and is wondering what his
rector would say if he could see him at
that moment. Lucia laughs at him
softly, springs on the balustrade that
runs along the terrace and sits perched,
swinging her buff colored slippers like
schoolboy and blowing tiny perfumed
clouds into the midsummer night air.
The diamond buckles on her insteps
twinkle in the moonlight and then dis
appear under billowy lace that peeps
out under her frock.
"There; now I'm quite happy" she
says contentedly. ITS perfect night.
Uncle Walters asleep, and I've got
young man to talk to and four ciga-
rettes to smoke. What more can girl

He leans over the balustrade beside
her and looks out over the moonlit
park, thinking how he shall approach
the subject neanest;to his heart.

David starts violently and drops his
cigarette on the grass. Is it possible
that those hopes in which he has never
dared to indulge are to be fulfilled, and
that he is to be the heir of the uncle
who has always seemed so completely
Indifferent to him? Happy Davidl Is
there anything else on earth which he
has to wish for? Yes; one thing, and
one only.
"And what about yourself?" he asks
timidly.

Uncle Walter told me 30 last year when
Charles S3udanore wanted me to marry

David is quivering with excitement.
'And you wouldn't?" he says in a
low voice. "Yet it would have been
good match. L wonder why?"
"Well-no; 1 wouldn't" she says
slowly, looking at the point of her slip
per. Then she looks up, laughs little
and ends her laugh with a small sigh.

Perhaps I liked somebody else better
somebody who hadn't asked me to
marry him."
A wild hope flashes through his
brain. WAS twas he--somebody
nearer?' he stammers-"a cousin, for
instance?"
She glances quickly at him and
turns away her head; all her affecta-
ton of fastness is gone, and he sees her
as she is.
"How did you guess that?" she whis-
pers. II must have kept my secret

He seizes her hand. "Lucie," he

will not answer.

''Have you picked up anything ?" she
inquiries, smiling. II dropped some

A newborn Jealousy flares up in his
eyes. "a letter? From whom?"

shyly. 1T was only letter FROM you.
He smiles very tenderly. The only
letter he has ever written to hen. is one
in acceptance of his uRcle's invitation

Are as red as the sun when he leers through the

And a pleasure there is, when the hours grow

In watching the lovers who hang DER the gate
And whisper such nothjngs as lovers will give,
In the shadows that fall in the street where

In the street where live-ah, tits many long
