ton. refined AMI insolent as it was, aided
to blind Slyme, showing him evil which
was not only prosperous but was. also
radiant in grace and PRESTIGE. For these
reasons he most profoundly admired his
employer-admired, initiated, and hated
HIM!
The MAGNIFICENT Elliston professed for
him and for his solemn airs an utter con-
tempt. which he did not always take the
trouble 10 conceal; ard Slyme's limbs
trembled when some burning sarcasm fell
from such lofty height on the old
would of his vanity--that wound which
was ever sore within m.
What he hated most in his employer
was his easy and insolent triumph-his
immense and unmerited fortune-all
those enioyments which life yielded,
without pain, without toll, without con-
science-peacefull tasted.
But what he hated above ALL was that
this man had thus obta ming these things,
while he, Oscar Slyme, had vainly strlyen
for them.
There was yet one thing more; he had
looked uron the oung wife OF the for
tunate man whose bread he ate, and seen
that she was wondrously, surprisingly
lovely. and. like ali who had ever come
with n the magic circle of her banetuI
influence, he had speedily succumbed 10
her powers-aye, the time quickly came
whea be loved her with felce and mad
denine passion, when he would gladly
have run any ri-k, committed any crime,
to win single smile of approval from
her beautiful lips.
Of course Cora was not slow to see and
understand the power she had game
over the secret ry, and that one word
from her would make Linn her willing
slave; Int for time she treated him
coolly, even contemptuously
But when she wanted an instrument
wherewith 10 reach the heart OF the man
who had calm'y and deliberately sighted
her protfered love, here was one ready to
her hand, and she scrupled not to make
use of it.
"Take seat, Mr. iSlyme," said the
ladv. hastily throwing the paper on the
floor "and tell me where in the world you
have been ever nee last evening"
Il have. 10 the best Of my poor ability

quietly seating himself, been carrying

The pirl is dead-at least so the paper
states"
"Ah! to be sure the papers say so, and.
thanks TO a rapidly conceived plan OF
my own, which 1 must say I carried out
most admirably, her husband thinks so,
too: and now it only rests with you to
saw whether or no he shall ever be unde-
ceiyed" .
"Lauding your wonderful abilities
again, see, Slyme; that's a particularly
bad habit of yours. But no matter-what
do YOU meanP How does it rest with me-
Please explain yourself: Tell the whole
story, and tegin at the beginning, if you
please"
Slyme flushed painfully at the rebuke
he had received, aud, moving uneasily in
his chair, he commenced his story, speak
ing in low and rapid tone, his eyes the
while wandering about the partially
lighted room, and never for more than
moment at time resting on the lady'i

other of her gracious smiles, while she
said:
"You have, indeed, earned so poor a
reward. Continue to be faithful II you
would stand even higher in my regard.
With low cry of rapturous joy, the IN
fatuated secretary threw himself upon
his knees before the woman, and fervent-
ly pressed her haud to his lips; then, as
she softly whispered:

from the room as one drunk with wine.
All, if he could only have seen tha'
same woman the next moment! II ne
could only have seen her flushed face. hel
angry, flashing eyes, her compressed lips
as she rubbed the spot on her hand that
had come in contact with his1ips.
Then if he could only have seen how
she threw from her the delicltely en-
broidered handkerchief she had used, as
if it had been some uncleanf thing, ne
might have doubted her sincerity. HC
might even have doubted his own great
power of fascination.

CHAPTER x.
EUGENE RECEIVES A v1sIroI

EUGENE RECEIVES A VISITOR
Eugene Cleveland left his uncle's house
in strange state Of mind. His head
was dizzy-confused, as though he were
drunk with wine.
He had promised to spend the evening
with the Fieldings. They h d consider
ately urged him to do SO, knowing how
lonely he would be, all by himself, in his
own desolate home.
But he forgot his promise. He nc
longer remembered the dear friends OF
Forty seventh street.
He went directly to his own apart
ments, let himself in, threw himself into
I'm easy chair and thought not of he1
whom he had lost-not of the sad cere-
monies that had been performed In the
little New England VILLAGE that day, but
of her whom he had just left, the siren oi
the Fifth avenue mansion--her whom his
uncle called wifel
So absorbed was be that he forgot the
fight of time, and when the little clock
on the mantel- shelf struck the hour OF
midnight, he awoke, as it were, with O
start, and with guilty feeling at his
heart, slowly prepared to retire.
at length his preparations we're made,
and extinguishi the light, he got into
bed: but alas, not to sleep.
In spite of him, all that had occurred
from the time Ray Fielding had confessed
10 him the loss of the hundred dollars,
down to that very hour, passed in revie y
before him. like an endless panoram ,; for
no , ooner was the last act in his uncle'f
library passed, than the first scene with
Ray sprang up again.
And now, gradually. he once more be-
gan TO doubt Cora Elliston-he once more
began to look upon her as the author Of
ali lis misery-as the murderer of bis
mr.. and innocent bride, and then, rs he
rrmem bered how he had held her, claspec
in his arms, as again he felt her hot k se'
on his cheek k-hs eye, his lips, he shu /
lered, and, shud ering, slept.
