The man Of whom they had been
speaking, Gideon Prawle, caught sight
OF them at the same moment, and,
crossing the road, came towards them
"Will you 20 round and see father,
Mary2" asked Tom, hurriedly, before
the other man Joined them. "And
don't tell him aught about this bust
ness"
Good evening, Mary; good evening,
Tom" said Gideon Prawlc, as he joined
them. lie was good.lool,ing man Of
aome six and twenty, with bold, regular
features under mass ~ curly fair

telling you I'm In disgrace" - he
laughed noisily as he said this-"and
that Reuben Gorringc thinks he can
kick me out OF iLe mill. The hound!
But the man who kicks stone wall
mayhap will break his foot rather than
the wall. He's just like bcggnr set m
horseback, but instead Of riding To the
devil he wants to make the horse kick
other folk there. It's only the other
day he was hand himself. for all his
currlsh pride. but it's strange 10 ne II !
don't make him sorry he ever inter

nant expression made his face any
thing but pleasant to look upon.
~ hope you won't hurt others in
your plan 10 re scnge yourself, GiCcoh,
said Mary, firmly.
That's like you, Mary. Always
hard on mel" and he tried 20 laugh
lightly TO cover real vexation. "lou
never would give me credit for any
thing but doing the wrong thing In the
wrong way. BESIDES, as Tom will tell
you, this is not my question only; it,
a society matter. Gorringe knows I've
worked hard for the union, and hes
got knife into me In consequence.
lie hates the union like poison"
Tom ana Mary intcrchnngcd rapid
chances.

Eyes, that's Noman's view Of all
society bothera," answered Gideon
prawle, lightly. "lIut Tom here
Knows better, don't yoL, Tom?'
Tom agrees with me-" said Mary
quietly; and ut the reply Gideon cast n
rapid and rather vindictive glance at
the other nam, and said, shortly:
"Wcll, it, not for you or Tom here
t. settle, but for tho society 10 decide;
and it's time for the meeting. Good
night, Mary. Bette feelings to yuu,

they separated.

frowning and flushed with rage Then.
twisting his cap in his clenched hands,
he exclaimed:
"Do you mean TO turn me out like a
dog, without even u kind word or a
lool?" he asked.
II can have no kind words for any
one who has said what you have, to-
day" answered Mary, resolutely. But
| bear no malice"
The man had 10 pass close to her on
leaving the room, and as he was NOV
ing away sudden temptation seemed
to come over him, and he threw his
arms round her and clasped her tightly
to him as he exclaimed:
"You shall kiss me then, Mary, even
II you won't throw me "A kind word, "
and he drew her 10 him and strove TO
press his lips TO hers.
She struggled with all her strength
10 escape from his grasp, and, finding
she could not, called out loudly for
help.
You'd better yield TO me- cried the
coward, between his teeth, "for my
blood's up, and won't answer for the
consequences
"lIclp, helpr' called Mary, renewing
her struggles.
Then the door OF the cottage was
thrown open quickly, hurried steps
passed along the passage, and Tom
Roylince burst into the room.
In moment he had thrown himself
upon Gideon Prawle, and, selling him
by the throat, Il desperate struggle en-
sued, In the midst Of which, Gibeon,
suddenly breaking away from the
other man, pushed him back on To a
chair and with muttered curses and
threats rushed out Of the room.
