Don't you ever set foot outside that
garden fence without my permission. If
you want to see the camp, I'll take you
myself some Sunday afternoon
Phyllis had not the smallest intention
of disobeying him as to her actions, but
she assumed herself to be independent
with respect TO her feelings. She no
longer checked her fancy for the hus-
sar, though she was far from regarding
him as her lover III the serious sense i'll
which an Englishman might have beer
regarded as such. The young foreign
soldier was almost an ideal being to her,
with ncSa of the appurtenanccs Of an
ordinary house dweller. One who had
descended she knew not whence. and
would disappear she knew not whittier.
The subject of a fascinating dream--no

They met continually now-mostly
at du-l, during the brief interval be-
tween the going down Of the sun and
the minute at which the last trumpet
call summoned him to his tent. Per
haps her manner had become less re-
strained latterly. At any rate, that of
the hussar was 50. He had grown more
/ tender every day, ard at parting after
these hurried interviews she reached
down her hand from the top of the wall
that he might press it. One evening he
held it SO long that she exclaimed,
1.-THE wall is white and somebody in
the field may see your shape against it. p"
He fingered so long that night that it
was with the greatest difficulty that he
could run across the intervening stretch
of ground and enter the camp in time
On the next occasion of his awaiting her

unspeakably keen. He remained staring
blankly at the wall like a man in a
trance. The tl'umpets and tattoo sound
ed, and still he did not go.
She had been delayed purely by an
accident. When she arrived, she was
anxious because of the lateness of the
hour, having heard the sounds denoting
the closing Of the camp as well as he.
She implored him to leave Immediately.

place and incidents of his childhood till
she was III simmer of distress at his
reclllessness i'll remaining. 1t was only
because she insisted on bidding him
good night and leaving the wall that he
returned to his quarters.
The next time that she saw him he
was without the stripes that had adorn-
ed his sleeve. He had been broken to
the level Of private for his lateness that
night, and as Phyllis considered herself
to be the cause Of his disgrace her sor-
row was great. But the position was
