MAD FOR THE LOVE OF HER.


Its no use. I've come back, You
see. l guessed you'd be alone now"
And Sir Jaffray Walcote laughed as he
passed out through the window of the
| hotel on to the veranda and sat down
on low basket chair, which creaked
under the weight of his tall, powerful
| frame.
Lola Crawshay, who was sitting
alone at the end of the veranda, looked
up from her book and first greeted him
with glance and smile, which made
his pulses beat faster, and then changed

he glanced at her, checked himself
and changed the finish of the sentence.
adding-"that on such an evening one
gets such fine views of the scenery, you
know, and all that, and so here am.
That's all. " And he turned his smiling,
handsome face to her.
You had no right to come back"
said Lola gravely and almost coldly.
and she closed her book and gathered
up the fancy work which she had been
doing. Then she rose from her chair
and stood just where the sun shone
upon her, bathing her in golden light
and making her magnificent beauty seem
almost supernatural in its dazzling ra.

Her companion gazed almost like one

Before he could do this, however. the
girl, mad with the rage he had stirred
in her, raised her foot and stamped her
heel with all her force upon the man 8
white, strained fingers.
He uttered loud. sharp cry OF pain.
and, unable TO retain his hold, disap-
peared over the face of the rock.
It happened so suddenly that the
young wife stood gazing at the place
where he had fallen like one dazed
with horror.
But il was only for an instant. Then
she drew herself mp and raised her head
as if with an instinct of defiance.
She waited some time and listened
Then she bent forward and called to him,
"Pierre, Pierrel' and she was pleased
when no answer came. Lying down at
full length, she tried to look down into
the gorge, but slightly projecting
breast of the cliff prevented her from
seeing TO the bottom. Finding that, she
moved away and went to another spot
and tried to get a glimpse of the place
into which he had fallen. She thought
she could see him lying far down below.
but the light was thickening with the
growing storm, and she was not certain.
But she made no effort to get help,
and, when she had waited until the time
came for her to leave, in order TO catch
the train at the station she walked away
quickly.
She was glad and her heart was
beating with an infinite pleasure that
the man who had gloomed and ruled
and deadened her young life was dead.
He had been too hard taskmaster
for her not to be thrilled with sense
of pleasure at the thought of freedom

give you family, child, as good as any
i'll England, and if you don't make your
way with them your not my child"
I'D rather you'd not speak, began
Lola, when the old man cut her short:
do hear me to the end, girl. I've
all but done, and you know how it tires
me to talk. You'll find everything in
that black box addressed to you to save
trouble. Don't waste your little money
Oh any funeral fallals for me- | should
not do it on you, and don't want 'em
Get away as quickly as you can, but
post the letter two days before you
start, only two days, so as not to give
any one chance of replying. It's just
to say I've told you 10 go straight to our
people in England, and as they don't
love me Overmuch they may want to
put off my child. Don't give 'em the
chance, but you go, and when you re
there I'll trust you to do the rest
That's the best can do for you, Lola.
You've had rough time between an
oAN pSoPN SAaNO iihO inS anu a yOuHk
villain like Pierre, and you've been a
stanch, brave girl. Now let me lie down
to sleep"
Lola kissed him again, and this time,
softened by his own words, he kissed her
hand in return.
You're a good girl when you like,
Lola" he said. Il believe you'd do
anything on earth for the man you
loved-and anything to the man you
didn't" he added dryly.
The girl watched him till he dropped
asleep, and then she sat thinking over
all he had said. She was really sad at
the thought of his death, for he was the
only thing she had ever loved in her
life
But he was right when he said he
was dying In less than fortnight he
was i'll his grave, and she had started
for the new life in England, and de-
spite her regret for the old mans death
she was filled with an intense gladness
that the old disgraceful thraldom was
over, as well as with eager anticipa-
lions of what the future held for her.

BY that one act she secured forever the
affections of the widow, who would
after that go anywhere to please her.
while she did not leave London until
Mrs. DE Witt had seen how much use
the girl could be in making the house
attractive to men.
She paid several visits to the liyeIy
little woman's house, and it was in one
OF these that she met Sir Jaffray Wal
cote for the first time. He had been
abroad on tour half round the world
hunting and shooting at the time of Lo.
las arrival in England, and she had
thus only heard of him by repute. She
knew, moreover, that he was to marry
his cousin, a distant relation of her
own, Beryl LEICESTER, whose people
lived near Walcote.
Mrs. DE Witt had spoken much about
him, describing him always as one of
her chief intimates and suggesting more
IN her manner than in her words that
there was an understanding between
them OF the closest and most confiden-
tial kind.
The moment that the baronet's eyes
fell on Lola, however, he seemed to
yield to the infuence.which she exer-
cised over men, and he never had either
strength or inclination to attempt to
resist it.
Perceiving this and knowing intui-
lively that any encouragement ON her
part would tend to estrange Mrs De
witt from her and bcing quite unwiil-
