What in the world do you mean by appearing like this?" she inquired sharply after the first greetings.
 You have told me often that I prinked like a girl and wished to good ness would spend less time and mon- ey on clothes and get busy doing some mans work" he replied with some of his old bantering manner.
 T never advised you to appear like a-like a." She hesitated.

 Been overdrawing your income again. I suppose. with your horrid ex- travagance," she replied severely. Well, it has come to a pretty pass if the tailors won't trust you until the quarter Is over"
 Its worse than that. Flo" replied the young man, gravely. Its the prin- cipal."
 Good heavens, you don't mean to say"
 "Yes-all of it. Now listen to me. I haven't lost it--that Is, think I haven't. When you turned me down so hard because I was an idler and a butterfly I resolved to follow your ex- cellent advice and go out into the great world of business and cross swords with men in the great battle of life. Those are the words you used"
 My goodness" gasped the girl. turning pale and dropping down on a bench; ''and you took all your money?'
 Every penny" replied Philip. of course, I could see no particular req son to go out into the great world of business and cross swords with any body when I had an assured income of ten thousand a year, but then figured that you knew best. So I figured it out that there would be no virtue In the operation unless I staked the whole thing and went in like other men, on the rule or ruin plan" What did you do?" asked the girl now greatly disturbed and feeling somewhat guilty.
 T went into a western land deal oh, it's a great scheme and there are millions In 1t, but there's a little hitch just at present" replied the man. 'Tll get the money back, all right, have no doubt"
 "Oh." breathed the girl greatly re- flowed. Then she added: Do you need more money to carry it through? Ev- erything I have"
 "No, not that" exclaimed Philip hastily throwing up his hand In invol- untary protest.
 What, then, can do?" she iu- quired.

THE GREAT ORCHESTRA
BY CHARLES EUGENE BANKS.

 Co.,
 While stephen Mordaunt's wife lived he looked upon Vera Stuart as the one woman in the worud to answer
 to the demands of his nature. She was not beautiful. neither was she lively. fanciful and given to those pret-
 ty seductive arts that are so grate- full to men. On the contrary she was tall, rather pale and with manner that suggested coldness. But her eyes were deep and luminous, her head
 shapely and well poised, her hands slender and of the form and texture
 that denote a nature sensitive and elec- tric.
 There were no secrets between these two so far as their relations were concerned. Both had arrived at that state of philosophy which makes it easy to deny the right of govern ment either to force a man and wo- man who are not in harmony to live together, or to keep apart two who
 are. So stephen and Vera lived hap oily for one another. satisfied to let the world go by on its creaking
 wheels whilst they took the path through the clover meadows or love and confidence.
 Mrs Mordaunt may or may not have known of this sweet if unlawful, com
 pact between her husband and am other woman. If she did she never | indicated her knowledge by word or deed. stephen had long ago told her | it was impossible to continue his in- ventions and remain under the same l roof with her and she had agreed with him. Something in their natures claehed the moment they were to- gether. Apart they lived peacefully | in remembrance of each others vir- tues. kept up a regular correspon- ence settled their affairs of business with regularity and precision, and when they met, as was some etlmes the case in social gatherings. even their | friends could discover no trace Of the l feelinf, of dscord that sounded in their
 ears above all the laughter, and brOk- l en conversation in which they were for
 the time immersed.
 From all such contacts stephen re- | turned to Vera with a feeling of rest
 i've rebellion against the law that l bound him to one woman whose very presence awoke all the untuned nerves and fibers of his being, while at the same time it deprived him of the right
 to acknowledge to the world his ad- miration and love for another woman
 who was an inspiration to the very | best that was in him.
 ''Why should I be denied the privi- lege of your society among my friends?" he questioned one night af- ter they had gone over for the hum dredth time the situation. You are

Florence was unusually pale when Sidney Loftus called that evening. She plunged at once into Philips business Ee was yisibly annoyed; then froze into dignity -

 Florence read the note a second time and was more puzzled than before.
 My dear Coz" it ran, will you meet me at the entrance to the park tomorrow at 2:30? I know you will' like the good fellow you are. l have a very great favor to ask of you ana I want to see you alone. Above all things don't let Aunt Susan know am in town. This is most important Philip"
 At first with the jealous suspicion of love she suFmised that Phil was there to join in the family crusade against her marriage to Sidney Lof- tus.
 what right has he to interfere?" she exclaimed, tossing her pretty head and she blushed softly as she remem- bered Philips sudden and mysterious desertion.
 But no, it could not be that after all, for he naturally would have come right to the house. And the injunction of secrecy-that was a most mysterious thing, as Phil was Aunt Susan's par ticular pet and protege. Anyway the secrecy was delightful and Florence was too true a daughter of Eve not to warm to the secret. So after swearing she never would go chasing after her handsome cousin and vowing that if he wanted to see her he could come to her home, in the end she put on her hat and gloves and went merrily away to the trysting place he had named.
 Be 1t known that while Philip was Florence's cousin, at the same time he was not-that is really. For while he was Aunt Susans very favorite nephew he was not really her nephew at all but the nephew of her late husband Uncle John. But that is a mere mat ter of detail. for cousins they had al. ways been since the days of pinafores and cousins in truth they still were
 All her intended censure was forgot ten when Florence saw Philip. He did not seem the same care-free debonaiI and lofty young prince whom she had scolded so severely in former days fol lack of purposes and whose light ad- vances she had repelled with so much severity as meaningless and counter felt He was much thinner and his face was grave and bore the marks oi suffering and thought. His clothes too, contrasted strangely with his for ner elegance of attire. He was dressed plainly and his garments were not new or fresh. In face he looked almost seedy.

framework Of eontempOraneous love affair
but it is pretty successfully concealed under tho
too elaborate trim.
Mr. Norris pays the penalty OF making the
supposititious narrator of AN Embarrassing Or
phan' retired Indian civil servant who is too
advanced in years to be exactly vivacous. 1t is
natural for Sir Edward Denne to write in the
vein Of this book, ana the author is To be COM
mended, We suppose, for maintaining the old
gentlenan's tone throughout But is it the tone
best calculated to make novel OF the sort en-
tertainlnS? We doubt it. At all events "An
Embarrassing Orphan" is somewhat tedious
where IT might easily have been made a very
different kind of story. The heroine is a girl
whose father dies. leaving her a fortune. She
is not to know anything about the money how
ever, until she completes her twenty-first year
or is married, and in case she chooses the
wrong man, Sir Edward who is made her guar
dian, is authorized to distribute the bulk of the
estate in charity, giving her only a small in
come. The substance of the book is made UP
of his difficulties in automatically guiding Miss
Elsie Britten into the right matrimonial port
The problem is a serious one and in the soIu-
ton of it poor old Sir Edward gets entangIed IL
all manner of complications.
