Mr.. Topmark ut her elbow, the very
moral of sunny content. How was Jack
to comprehend that the collocation was,
SO far as it concerned Rob, wholly ACCT
dental? She had set out in company on
ly Of Cerintha and Cerintha's- lover,
meaning to keep herself wholly and
amiably in tho background. The three
had encountered Mr.. Topmark some lit
tie way beyond his own gate, and il
was the most natural and neighborly
thing in the world for him to bear them
company the rest OF the way.
If Rob had but known it, the encoun-
ter was not nearly SO accidental as it
looked. Though after his cavalier dis
missal Mr.. Topmark had not dared to
seek Rob's sec ETY. outright, by cunning
questioning of such black folk as came
from Roscoo to the store that day he
had found ont her purpose of going to
church and had plotted to join her.
Things bad fallen out to nicely as he
had planned. He had disarmed suspi-
cion, he felt by his well acted surprise
over the sight Of Miss Payne and his
feint Of wishing to ride beside her.
"Mr. Top,nark, have you no con-
science whetever?" Bob had said over
that, pretending 10 whisper, but with
an arch glance at Cerintha and the min
lister. "That's worse than playing dog
in tho Manager. If that is your game,
just wait till we get past you. Then You
can come aloag by yourself-though, if
you can behave like "a Christian, we
shall be glad of your company"
'I'll he good, better'n lamb, eff You
say So" Mr. Topmark had returned,
smiling fatuously. Rob had laughed
outright.

word to her In private until he was on
the point Of going away.
1t was then 10 o'clock. He had said
his goodbys and was passing down the
steps when Rob ran after him with his
handkerchief, crying out: Mercy,
jack See what You came near doing
losing one of your beautiful birthday
handkerchiefs. / think / could guess
who worked your name so cunningly in
the corner, but won't tell you. Men
are so vain anyway. But suppose she
saw it and grew jealous, like Othello'-
'Come outside with me minute"
Jack said, catching her arm and draw
ing her beneath the poplars '"Rob.
darling, why do you torment me so?
How long must keep eating my heart
out in this way?"
81 don't quite know what you mean,"
Rob said, thankful that the only light
upon her was the low silver Of newly
risen moon. She shivered. Her hands
grew cold. In spite of her pride, her
deadly hurt, it was hard to believe in
Jacks treachery with his voice in her
ear. He tried to take her hand. She
drew it away and locked it with its
fellow at her back.
"Maybe / am fool for my palms,"
Jack said thickly, "but-but asked
you to marry me. ask it again. love
you, you only, SO well I could kiss the
ground you tread-that is, love the
girl knew and believed in and called
by your name. I do not want woman
who can tolerate the Ben Topmarks. If
you mean to keep him dangling after
you, then, by the Lord, you can't have
me- Oh, little girl, don't say-don't
think me a jealous brute! I can under
stand how you may have done tall
for a within, to make the rest who hate
you so cape and stare You see, ! know
all your wickedness-in fact, 1 rather
love you the better for it. Say that is
truth, darling-say you will never do
it any more; that you will give me the
right to keep him from troubling you"-
Rob had been shaken by his plead
inRs, his comprehension but at the last
words her anger famed again. She
drew little farther away and said,
with an accent of delicate irony:
"Why, Jack, how can you think he
troubles me? You ought to know better
than anybody in the world what fasci-
nation runs in the family and how i'm.
possible it is to escape it"
