Not a thimbleful! Their names are,
respectively, Eric Leslie and Lewis Sa

gineer; the latter correspondence clerk.
They lodge together. In appearance and
character they differ greatly; you shall
study both at your leisure. know Mr.
Leslie to possess a healthy appetite; so l

III come, too. Cooking has, for me,
all the fascination of an unexplored
science"
Nora donned her prettiest blouse that
evening; and dressed her hair with extra
care; thus confirming Angela's suspicion
that she felt more than ordinary interest
in one of the coming guests; and it
speedily became apparent that at least
one of them felt far more than ordinary
interest in Nora.
This was Eric Leslie, well built En-
ghshman, sufficiently handsome to salts
fy the taste of the average woman, and
owning pair of fine eyes that inspired
trust i'll man and woman alike Those
eyes went straight to Miss Mobiles fair
face and fingered there with passionate
content.
Lewis SavilIe belonged to a different
type altogether, and Angela found his
appearance vaguely familiar; the thin.
brown cheeks, restless black eyes, and a
nervous twitch of the eyebrows. Surely
she had seen this man somewherel
She recognized his figure, too-or
thought she did-as thin as his face. with
long sloping shoulders, and an un English
movement Of the bands when he spoke;
short, unnoticeable creature this; but
Angela was certain she had met him be-
fore-under a different name!
Saville, also. evidently admired Nora,
and resented his friends doing so. Much
TO Miss Grants surprise Nora appeared
to favor the foreigner-for such she
quickly decided he was. During dinner
she asked him, to make sure
You are not English, are you, Mr.
Saville?"
NO" he replied at once: adding quick

anxiously from one face to another at
the table as though defying them to chal-
lenge his words.
