! * LOVE IS BEST - I
Il by Florence HodSkinson

by Florence HodSkinson
Mrs. Wilmot hesitated.

Mrs. Wilmot hesitated.
ITO tell you the truth, her name is
Lindon; but when Mrs. Tanner told
me about her I pointed out it might
not be pleasing to you that a name
sake Of yours should fill such an hum
BILE position, and the young person
agreed to change the second letter OF
her name, and be Miss Lendon to the
world at large"
1T was very considerate OF you"
said the rich man coldly, "but you
have done me an incalculable injury.
My only child left her home on April
80, and though 1 have offered reward
for her recovery, and spent money Law
ishly on the search, 1 have never
found trace of her. The girl I saw
in the distance today is my daughter,
Beryl Lindon, and your protegee will
have to dispense with her services,
for of course l shall take her home
with me-
"Of course" echoed Mrs. Wilmot
suavely. And if Mrs. Tanner had
only known the truth she would have
communicated you with before"
Mr.. Lindon saw his advantage.
"For reasons you will understand,
do not care to seek my daughter at
Uplands. Perhaps, as her employer is
a protegee of yours, you can write in
her name requesting Miss Linden to
return to Woodlands at once. 1 will
meet her there. and no doubt every
thing can be amicably arranged. Nat
urally l do not want my private con-
Germs discussed all over Easthill, and
you and your husband will find it to
your advantage to assist me-"
Mrs. Wilmot was only too willing;
but one difficulty lay in her way
how was she to word her letter? The
imperious commands she would have
laid on her sisters governess could
hardly be addressed to Mr.. Lindon' s
heiress. The master of the Manor saw
her hesitation.

Mrs. Tanner Linden, Misunderstanding

He slept soundly that night, for it
seemed to him that within twenty
four hours his rebellious would feel
obliged by Miss Lendon-not daughter
would be safely in his hands. He lit
tie guessed the thrilling events even
then taking place at Uplands, or how
after many days, his sin had found
him out. Very soon he would have to
admit the truth of the poets words:

Passengers on an elevated railway
train this morning who happened to
be looking out of the car windows saw
a strange thing. A district messenger
boy was leaning against q stoop, read
ing a paper covered novel, utterly
obifvfous to all that was going on
around him. At his heels some one
had thrown lighted match, and his
trousers were just breaking out into
a blaze as thu train rolled on. What
happened afterward could be only
imagined by the people on the train.
1t ought to have been to the boy al
most as exciting as the novel; New

CHAPTER XII

While the girls were at the Manor,
and Harold was out on the farm. Mrs.
Dynevor had a visitor. That was
nothing remarkable, for the gentle
mistress of the Uplands was popular
both with rich and poor. The "coun-
ty'' visited her as frequently as if she
had been a peeress, and her humber
neighbors liked to come and tell her
their joys and sorrows, sure that if she
could give little help in money her
sympathy was never missing. But this
particular visitor was utterly unex-
pected, seeing it was eight years since
Mrs. Dynevor had seen her, and nearly
seven since she had heard of her.
IF you please, ma am, Mrs. Ran
som would like to see you. She says
you may not remember her married
name, but she was Miss Kitty's nurse
long ago."
''It must be Bridget Gordon" ex-
claimed Mrs. Dynevor, in surprise.
Il heard she married very we'll; but
what in the world can have brought
her back to Easthill? Ask her in,
please, Dorcas."
The years had evidently passed
prosperously to Mrs. Ransom. She
looked as though life had gone easily
with her. She was pleasant, kind
faced woman of 40, handsomely though
quietly dressed in black. She had al:
ways been little above her position
and, as Kitty said, Mrs. Lindon had
treated her more as an humble COM
panion than a maid. Kitty did not
know that Bridget had been forced tc
leave her aunt, sorely against hel
own and her mistress wish, and that
she had always disliked Eustace Lin.
