At his bidding the door was pushed

her mouth fell open and her eyes fair

bowling. "Clnst tell me on which OF
these two roads the village of Cragen-
stone doth lay?"
"Thou-thou canst go right on" the
girl stammered in great confusion.
"The-the other road leads to Stern
dorf."
He thanked her with great civility
and, reckoning to his attendant to fol-

"'Tis passing strange" he reflected,
''how the impression was fixed in my

bright stuffs, works Of art and tufted
chairs and touches, SO that his home
presented an air Of comfort and ele-
gance not to be found elsewhere on
that bleak mountain.
As Margaret entered the only occu-
pant Of the room was an elderly wom-
an, having the appearance OF being
more than common serving woman,
who was spreading white cloth on a
table, idly humming little tune as
she did SO.
"A good day, Elsbeth. Prithee, sing

tonishment. "Then thou doth like thy
new surroundings"
"An' thou, MargaretY'
"Ah, welladay, I cannot tell thee
yet" she answered, with a sigh. But
I own to great depression this morn

ness and loneliness lie heavy on my
heart"
She walked to the window and, rest
ing her arms on the deep sill, looked
out of doors discontentedly, uncon-
scious of the graceful appearance she
made in the French morning gown OF
pink poplin that fitted loosely to her
rounded figure and fell in long folds
to the floor.
Hast had no misgivings. Elsbeth,

"Where thou art, sweet Margaret, l
