rather bewildered expression upon her
face.
"You bad dog, Sambo! I was just
wondering if you could have found
your way here. Could you give him a
bone, Henry?"
But here her care of Master Sambo
was unceremoniously cut short, as,
raising her head, she suddenly encoun-
tered the gaze of pair of amused
gray eyes, and for the first time be-
came aware of the presence of a
stranger in the room.
As for the owner of the gray eyes,
he carefully surveyed the figure in tl'e
doorway for the space of about three
seconds longer, and then, looking
away, tried to become absorbed in the
merits of Mr.. Andrew Gillibrand's wine
list.
But, after studying it intently for
five minutes, he tossed the card aside
and steadily regarded the doorway
through which the Enthusiastically clipped
poodle and it's mistress had just dis

The rambling, old-fashioned hostelry

fashionable watering-place of Satellite

and prosperous town consisted of little
more than a few fishermen's huts and
small lodging houses. But, though no.

structures which gave quite an appear
ance of superiority to the small town
had sprung up on all sides, the little
hosiery itself still held its own. In
deed the Royal George" though quite
as retired, was still as preposterous as
it had been forty years before, when
the huge board upon which the mon
arch after whom it was named was dis
like as his crown and unlimited guam
tity of somewhat stiff-looking ermine
could make him, hung out over the
narrow little doorway, with the name
of the worthy proprietor, Andrew Gill
librand," set out in gilded letters be-
low. And, as one stood in the lovely
quaint old garden and gazed around at
the stretches of down and the heather
grown cliffs beyond, one could hardly
believe the changes which had been
effected scarcely mile away.
1t was late one evening toward the
end of July when stranger who had
just arrived sauntered leisurely into
the large dining room Of the Royal
George" and gave orders for dinner to
be prepared for him Immediately.
He was a tall, dark, looking
man, with soldierly bearing and de-
cidedly distinguished air; and, as he
crossed over toward the bay-window
and sat down at a small table the
walters paused involuntarily with
their white table napkins slung over
their arms and trays of jingling glass
held up high above their heads, while
Josiah Williamson, under whose
charge that particular table happened
to be placed, mentally decided that he
was in for a little luck at last.
What will you have, sir?" he be-
gan, with an air Of expectation

Then he turned and looked out Oh
the open window. There, however,
the change was not so remarkable.

grass was shorn a little closer, If the
paths had a neater appearance and the
flowers were more recherche, prim
rows of calceolarias, geraniums and
stately dahlias taking the place of the
quaint old clumps of sweet-williams,
marigolds and pinks, the change was
not so great as to strike him with the
same force as naturally did the inte-
rior.
This evening the garden had very
serene. unruffled air. The tennis courts
we're deserted, the chairs under the
trees unoccupied, and, excepting for
the gentle tapping of the waves upon
the shingly beach, scarcely a sound
disturbed the dreamy stiffness of the
July evening.
1T is an idyllic place, l suppose,

drive me mad If / thought l had to

half aloud; and. Just as the words leil

CHAPTER LII

There was most bewitching smile
upon her lips now as she laughingly
replied to some remark of her com
panion, who was leaning forward
swinging his stick backward and for
ward and trying to knock off the heads
of some daisies; but his head was
turned toward the girl beside him, al
whom he was gazing in rapt atten-
ton.
"Who is the fellow" murmured the
stranger, as he put up his eye-glass
and surveyed the individual in ques-
ton with an air of curiosity not UNI
mingled with envy. Her brother
Fiddlesticks! More likely her father!'
with a shrug of his shoulders, though
an unmistakable cloud gathered upon
his face as he noted the unpaternal
manner in which he had laid his hand
on the back OF her chair and was list
ening to her words. Il can always
come within a year OF two of any
body's age, and that fellow is either "A
or As IL he is day."
The man to whom the stranger at
the window set down so decidedly to
play the unromantic part of parent
had the word Bachelor" written upon
every line of his countenance. At the
same time he was misunderstanding
parsonage, gentlemanly in appearance
rather than handsome, with clean
shaven face, clearly cut features and
dark, almost fascinatingly determined
eyes set deep beneath overhanging
brows which gave character to an
otherwise unremarkable face.
For the past few minutes, however,
the spreading branches of the trees
had thrown everything into shade. But
the sun was setting in a crimson glory,
and one golden shaft strayed beneath
the dark, heavy foliage, where it lin
gered for a few seconds to bring out
the lovely blending Of tints in the girls
nut-brown hair and to light up every
feature of the man by her side.

at his post.
Neither" was the brusque reply.
"But"-with a OBTAINING gesture
"have you such thing as a visitors
list? If you have, let me see it."
Certainly, sir. I will bring it at
once"
And the waiter smiled to himself as
he followed the direction Of the
strangers eyes and then turned away.
1t was astonishing what an amount OF
interest he could raise by the mere
mention Of Miss Luttrell and her ten
or twelve thousand year!

May Become Too Old and Unfit to Drink

There is such thing as a wine being

ed at my house the other day under
rather interesting circumstances. Bach
in 184S Gen. John NJ. Lewis, who was
then sheriff and afterward mayor OF
New Orleans, gave my uncle Daske'
of four-year-old champagne. My un'
Gle afterward moved north, taking thai
and other wines with him, and on hii
death, in the early sixties, the basket
was still intact. There had possibly
been some agreement about opening II
at a certain time, and, at any rate, the
champagne remained in the family cell
lar untouched, and only last month my
cousin, now in New York, broke the lol
and sent me down four bottles. ] was
naturally curious to know how the oid
wine would look and taste, and a few
days ago, on the OCCASION VI d H''ie IN
niversary at our house, l opened one
of the bottles. l had considerable
difficulty in removing the cork with
out breaking it, but it finally gave
way. There was not a vestige OF pop
and the wine ran out perfectly dead
and limpid. 1t was pale amber in color
and had faint, pleasant bouquet, bu,
the imprisoned gas that had once given
it life and sparkle were gone forever,
1t was interesting as a relic, but not III
to drink, and some friends who are

She was not alone. however. In
close attendance this time was a man
In evening dress, who had seated him
self by her side on straight IRON
backed form. which he had evidently
chosen in preference to a moro lux
urious seat half yard farther away.
Yes; at second glance he came to
the conclusion that Miss Luttrell was
even prettler than he had imagined her
to be at first. There was nothing stat
uesque about her beauty, nothing abb
solutoly perfect In her features; but
the face before him was one which,
once seen, could never be forgotten.
