the popular dramatist "And motive

CHAPTER XVIII.
"past All, Save Peace"

The dressing bell rang, and still that
closed door at the end of the great
corridor did not open.
throughout the vast old house the
curtains were drawn In cosy and de.
termined exclusion of the dreary night
without. The fires we're stirred to
ruaaier radiance, the lamps were
burning clearly.
The dinner bell was changing out It's
summons, when Miss Lennox came
into the hall, shutting and locking the
door behind her.
Her foot was on the first step of the
stairs. when she felt hand laid on
her arm, anu turned to face Mr.. Bow
ers.
Miss Icnnox," he said, In anxious
re--,sx!ty. what are we to do? Lady
Darlington should know OF this. It is
bat right and necessary that she
shculd be informed. and yet. how shall

In nervous insipuation, ARE like her
own daughter. Perhaps--you-"
Eyes In low. rapid voice I win
tell her. You need say no word to
hcr--none I will tell her--later."
She went swiftly up the wide stair
way. her purplish draperies trailing be-
hind her. At the head of the stairs
she met the doctor on his way from
the sick chamber. He looked at her
keeniy.
"How Is she. doctor?"

fierce, was brief. She viii waken and

young lady. you must be careful--ex-

One hand was resting on the carved
balnstrade, snow white against its pol
ished blaclsness. She frightened her
grasp with & slight nervous pressure

low-voiced coincidence and well-bred
commiseration.
Standing In the center of the room.
she saw, as through mist, Lady Car
rington approaching her, gentleman
by her side.
And then she became conscious of
the words which the proud old voice
was saying:
Cynthia, let me present you to my
nephew, Cyril Darlington. Cyril, my
ward and dear daughter. Cynthia Len
nox."

very wealthy client of mine, Cuth-
| bert Bracken by name-called at my
| office few days ago. and In the course
of conversation he alluded TO his late
and most marvellous escape from ship
wreck. Having leisure, / asked him to
describe the scenes to me minutely.
He did so.
"How many persisted on the burn
Ing vessel?' asked.
"T cannot be positive he replied,
but at all events there were two per-
sons. There may have possibly been
more. but these | can remember dis
timely. They only rushed on deck as
our ncat--the last hoat--was pulling
or quite too late for us TO render them
any aid. One was my stepfather's
granGchild, Laurence Lisle!"
Laurence Lisle!~
Miss Lennox had staggered back,
with a hoarse catching of her breath.
Laurence Lisle! Was not that the
name of the girl whom Lady Caring
ton had mentioned as-Ah, what was
coming? She was afraid-afraid to
think.
She stretched out her hand for him
to proceed, with wordless. imploring
gesture.
"Her companion Mr.. Bracken did
not know, beyond the fact that she ad-
dressed him as-Cliye."
"Clive!"
Was it a word or sob?
Eyes" he went on rapidly. "and
following the clue presented by the
word, I, the following day. searched
and examined the records at the vari-
ous shipping offices. At one l came
across the name of sailor engaged to
work his way across on board the
Dolphin The name was signed Give
STUART family name Of the Caring
tons, you viii emember-Stuart."
But Cynthia Lennox did not hear a
SYLLABLE She was standing before the
picture which hung above the mantle,
her brown, blazing eyes literally de-
vouring 1t. Her face was white as
ashes her hands were twisting and
each other In cruel anguish.
$50! He married her and they
sailed away together!" she whispered
to herself "Ah. how envy her--how
| envy her!"
"Hark!"
Again the knocker, welded by no
gentle hand, sent its brisk summons
echoing through the house.
The new heir!
She dug her nails into her soft palms
to keep her from crying out In her
sharp, awful pain.
"Go!" she said, huskily, and nodded
toward the door.
Mr.. Bowers bowed and went out In
silence. She walked after him and
turned the key in the lock. Then she
came slowly back across the room,
and leaning both arms on the mantel's
broad slab, looked up till her eyes rest
Cd ca tho smiling, boyish face above
her.
She was shaking violently from head
TO leet, as though chilled to the heart
with bitter cold.
"How envy ber!" she said, in a
soft. painting whisper-"how / envy
her!"
