CHAPTER XVI.

Find out mems wants and will,
And meet them there. All worldly
joys go less
TO the one JOY of doing kindnesses.
G.. Herbert
While Esperance was passing
through hard experiences at Riches
ter, Gaspard was being tried though
in a different way, In London They
were each strangely altered, but while,
with Esperance, trouble seemed work
ing so much harm, with Gaspard it
was very different. He had been too
thoroughly reused by the events Of
the past year ever to fall back again
to the selfishness which had been his
chief fault, and for which his present
enforced loneliness seemed to him
but just retrbution. His patience
was being sorely tried by the long and
apparently frutless waiting time; but
as, week by week, his longing for
work and action increased, and his
poverty grew more and more irksome.
an inner strength and power of en-
durance grew too, and his restlessness
and self-seeking were gradually sub
dued
He had, however, suffered greatly.
and in outward appearance was as
much changed as Esperauce, for his
poverty VS. not comparative, but ac-
tual hunger and want Then, too,
the state of France. and the fearful
accounts of the Commune and its
suppression made him miserable
enough; while his anxiety for Esper-
anee, and the pain of knowing that
she was unhappy and changed with
out the possibility of helping her, was
perhaps the worst trouble of all,
Although work was not to be had.
he would not give up all hope OF OBJ
tanning it in time, and employed him
self in thoroughly mastering the
English language knowing that il
would be OF great use to him.
One afternoon late in October ne
was hard at work at a difficult piece
OF translation, when the landlady,
with quite a beaming face, announced
visitor Gaspard glanced az the
card. which was. as he had expected,
that Of MIR Magnay, for Esperanee
had mentioned his intended visit in
her last letter
He FASTENED to greet him. with the
hearttness OF real pleasure, for. like
poor Esperance, he was greatly In
need Of some on to talk 10, and though
the landlady was both kind-hearted

to weary Of her stock OF proxy anee-

NOTES OF THE DAY.

The old sewer commission of Lon.
don was abolished with the begin.
ming OF 1898, after an independent
existence Of 23O years. This body
really had control of a large part Of
the municipal work. Organized In
1867, after the great fire to designate
where sewers, drains, etc., should be
placed in the section tC wilt,
the commissions powers We.
time to time extended until 1t had
charge Of fixing the tax rates, caring
for the streets and experimenting the
water supply. All these great powers
now revert directly to the municipal
corporation Of London.

whom you despise-they at least do
not speak rudely. And what you say
is false-untrue- unjust Such an
idea would never have entered my
head if you had not suggested it-no,
never,"
Cornelia, a little vexed at her own
most unwarrantable speech, tried to
calm her down, and entered into d
long disquistion on the folly Of los
ing temper in an argument; but Es-
perance scarcely heard. her anger
had died away, and she could only
dwell in grief and dismay on the ac-
cusation brought against her.
While Cornelia was still speaking.
Claude had been announced, and 1t
may well imagined that Esperance
was embarrassed and self-conscious-
for the first time in her life, however.
Shame, annoyance, and unutterable
longing for Gaspard were filling her
heart, and Claude's kindness and the
thought Of his proposed visit to her
brother proved too much for her very
imperfect self-control.
BY the time he was fairly out of the
room she was crying unrestrainedly.
and was far too miserable to heed
Cornella's long harangue "a the duty
of selfmastery.
Mrs. Mortlake might we'll feel dis
mayed at the tempest she had raised,
but she was too much blinded by con-
ceit to see the full extent of the harm
she had done. She made some pre-
tentons to virtue, and was conse-
quently vexed that an exaggerated, IL
not wholly untrue, accusation had es-
capped her, but rather than own her
self In the wrong she still stood by
it, and though conscience pricked her
into making some useless attempts TO
pacify Esperance, she would not re-
tract what she had said,
The breach between the cousins
was in consequence greatly wiiaued,
and the effect on Esperance was most
disastrous. She grew more and more
her face rarely lost it's expression of
hopeless suffering, her manners lost
worst of all, Mrs. Mortlake's perpetu-
much of their grace and ease, and,
ready to see faults in all around her,
al fault-finding began to make her
self-conscious and retrospective. She
gave up even attempting to love her
cousins, and, consequently, was at
once open to all those faults from
which she had hitherto been free.
When loye-which had been her
guard and strength all her life-was
allowed to die, selfishness at
once stepped in bringing in
it's train false pride, discomfort,
suspicion, and morbid sensitiyeness;
while what had formerly been coura-
geous patience was turned into a
falsely assumed caiiousness and indif-
ference.
The only things which kept her
from utter ruin were Gaspard's let
ters, full of the old love and conf
dence- although her answers We're
most ppointing and the remem-
brance OF her father. Even these
did not hinder her from sinking very
low, but they kept one soft spot in
her heart which could never alter.

suffering look which his face wore
when in repose.

perhaps it is narrower doubt if it is

Gaspard could not help smiling.

accounts of the stiff dinner-parties,
and this explains it all; they must in
deed be narrow-minded.
You do not know Dean Colinson
fully.
Gaspard flushed little.

it is doing Esperance no good. Did
you think her looking happy"
1t was an awkward question.
Claude paused for a moment, then
said, Hardly happy, | think; but
am sure she is inclined to make the
best of things; she told me that her
motto in life was 'Esperez toujours ]"
Poor child" said Gaspard, with a
sigh.
There was a moments silence, dur
ing which Claude watched his COM
panion's troubled face with great
deal of interest
His next question, however, was
almost as hard to answer.
