CHAPTER xXII-Continued.

Again after a space 1 came to myself, as
out of the clang and hammerstroke of some
great foundry where for infinite years 1
had been confined while the unresting
workmen day and night kept up their null
titudinous din.
"Open-openr' 1 could discern a confused
clamOr of voices outside the door. L felt

Itching ill-humor were in the very clinging
of my clothes. There was also a curious
chill in the apartment. 1 rose and made my
way as best 1 could to the door. 1 did

the angles of the furniture.

boxes of lucifer matches. which were then

And once l had terrible fright and was
obliged to sit down for a while behind the
peatstack. And oh, Fairlie, felt so happy
to see the babe again, and to think that
there was way out for him and me- 1t
was hard to wait. l knew that their boat
would only be tied with cord. Because the
day after Rupert went away l unwound the
chain and threw it over the cliff into the
sea, before Hamish came back from rowing
him. And l always meant to tell you Of
it, Fairlie. But the devil or else that little
tickling thing in my head kept saying that
l must not. You would not let me go If
did.
Yes, it was very wicked But do not be
angry. Well, the old hateful thing kept
saying all the time reimbursement

wineglass before dinner-only there were
more than that. Oh, 1 can't think what
made me so wicked, Fairlie. But that night
everything that l wanted to do, and just
now to do it, popped up in my head with
out needing to think of it at all. 1t was
the funniest thing.
NO, 1 am not the least tired, dear-at
least not if you will put little Rupert upon
the bed and let him hold my forefinger. 1
would rather tell you all about it now. Is
my father there? Why do you love me so
bad daughter to you. l wouldn't if 1 were
you.

still both dizzy and drowsy with my si,-sp-
ing draught. and the room reeled about me
when l strove to push the obstruction aside.
At last l could unbJlt the boor and turn the
key.
Mr.. Glendonwyn came in hastily without
any greeting. He had a tin lantern in his
hand. of the common stable pattern then in
use. He turned il about the room.
Where is your sister, he demanded,
with an oath. unusual upon his lips; War

sound asleep and knew nothing of the mat

Warner could probably explain to him why
i had been asleep.
But he never answered me. think now
that ne never even took my meaning. For

She had escaped. But how-hampered

Mr.. Gleudonwyn. As we stood on the little
platform the laird swung his lantern this
way and that.
A great black cartwheeI of shadow rayed
about us The wind blew keen and chill
over the water. Beneath the wall was

agreeably enough with the 'Newgate Calen-

only brother. Tonight 1 have read of

spirit-to be found Safeguarding it at mid
night upon the Corse O. Stakes! For shame,
sir!"
He unscrewed his flute and wiped 1t deli
cately. Then, putting it together again. he
motioned me to chair and pushed the
bottle and glass toward me. l refused both
with motion of the hand. l could bear no
more.

father who till now has been to me as

back to alter him out of all knowledge.
There was not a happier house in the
country than that OF David Glendinning.

cried. II would give all L possessed to
believe you"
He shrugged his shoulders and helped
himself again to the glass upon the table.
Il can only speak the TRUTH" he said; Il
cannot make you believe it!'
He picked up a pair of gloves which lay
on the table and drew them on his fingers
with the diligent particularly of a woman.
Now he continued, mockingly, I'VE will
open the stable and put our beasts to the
proof. Bravo should be in fine fettle for
the road after his rest. 'Deuchan-dorris'
to you and likewise 'Shlainte.''
And once more he drained his glass.
In ten minutes we were on the road, Ru-
pert browning wild with excitement as the
night air in strife with the alcohol he had
drunk took effect upon his BRAIN
"Once let me upon Bravo's back" he
cried, land 1 will show you how a gentle

And then began a scene which even now
l shudder to recall-a wild chase through
the parish of which I had been ordained
minister but a few months before. For |

venerable shanks.
Rupert went off with shout of defiance
and feering toss of the hand.
Now for the blue eyes of Fairlie Glen

not a word In reply, 1 took the words as
a cartel of defiance and accepted the gage.
L would stick to him. I muttered grimly,

The voice of Kate Glendinning. speaking
soft, mOnotonOus, low toned. in the hushed
silence of a little rOom-the fire in the CRATE
the only light-the winter gray of the noon
tide carefully tempered by drawn curtains;
i, Fairlie, alone by the bedside-that was
the scene. But little farther off, hidden
behind the hanging, was another, even our
father. David Glendinning He, too, was
listening unseen, his head sunk In his
palms.
For thank God, there was no need to
hide anything from him any more All. IL
only l had taken him into my confidence

the secret had been mine. Nor would 1
have left him to go away with nine Johns
that Is, without telling him first.
But Hates voice was relating a strange,
simple tale-infinitely touching. at least to
us. who had been part of that history and
who now held the wanderer to our hearts
against a world Of ISLANDERS.
You must forgive me, Fairlie DEAR she
was saying 1t was wicked and cruel of
me, but then l did not Know what 7 wa

The greater part of the evening was

4 Sensitive Musician.

1t is reported that considerable
trouble was caused the other day by
| a within of NJ Paderewski's. The
great pianist travels In special car,
and positively refused to bulge the
other day, ii is said, unless the car
were turned around so that he could
sleep with his head TO the engine. As
there was no turntable Just where the
car happened to be the matter was
complicated. The car was finally
taken some distance to bridge which
could be used as turntable and the
operation was successfully accom-
plished
OF course, it is possible that this
never happened, except in the imacin-
alton of Paderer ski's press agent. 1t
is well known that some of these
gentlemen have lively imagirat!ons
and that several of them have found
it possible TO become writer's of SEN
satioral fiction without any material
change in their mental equipment. II
was reported a while ago that Pade
rewski and Kubelik were about to
come TO blows over a matter of com
parative advertising, and then the re-
port was denied and all the people
who were looking for repetition of
the Tillman- McLaurin scrap were dis
appointed 1t would truly have bean
a musical melange If anything of the
kind had occurred, and perhaps it
was respect for the music that might
have been torn up and otherwise mu-
tilated in a duel which prevented the
two great artists from coming to
blows.
But in this last case it seems as If
something were wrong with the real
ism of the inventive genius of the
press agent, or with the resourceful-
ness of the railroad men, or some
thing. An ordinary bed is not of the
consistency of granite monument. 1t
would have been a good deal easier
to turn the bed around or to make
it up with the pillows at the foot.
than to turn seventy foot car
around. Why did nobody happen to
think of that?
