In the meantime Lieut.. Grace had re-
sceived at the hands of his father and
sister warm welcome.
Without announcement Of any descrip-
ton he made hin way from the Admiralty

consumption of afternoon tea
"Oswin - exclaimed the old admiral.

Helen Grace was young lady not
much given to explanatory expressions of

CHAPTER VIII.


If there had been any doubts enter
tanned or discussed as to the presenta-
bility of Claud Tyars in polite circles,
these were destined to an instant re-
moval when that individual entered the
drawing room of No. 105 Brook street.
His dress, Il it erred at all, did so on
the side of TOO scrupulous adherence to
the latest dictates of society. His man
ners were thoRe Of Travelled and expe-
rienced gentleman. That is to say, he
was polite without eagerness, pleasant
without gush, semi-interested, semi-indif-
ferent.
Oswin Grace advanced to meet him
with a quick glance of satisfaction at his
irreproachable get-up, which Tyars show
ed no signs Of having detected.
The necessary introductions were
made, and Tyars displayed the same per-
feet knowledge of social habits up to
date. His bow was pure and simple, and
to the Admiral he offered his hand in
calm, decisive way, which somewhat in
terfered with the old gentleman's digni-
fed coldness.
II think" SAID Helen at once, with a
characteristic desire to make things pleas
ont, that we have met before"
She was looking up at Tyars, who,
being very tall. stood head higher than
any one in the room, and In her eyes
there was no speculation, no searching
into the recessss of her memory. The re-
mark was wiriout interrogative hesita-
ton. 1t was thu assertion of fact well
known to her, and yet her color changed.
''Yes," answered Tyars; II had the
pleasure of daneing with you on several
occasions at the Commemoration three
years ago.
"But you are not an Oxford man? z"
put in Lieut.. Grace.
"No."
He did not seem to think II worth
while mentioning that his name was on
the books of the sister university.
what a good memory you have, M.
Tyars!" observed Miss Agnes Winter in
smooth, soft voice. Perhaps you can
help mine. Have we met before? know
your face"
He turned to her with smile In which
there was no light Of dawning recollec-
ton.

CHAPTER VII.

Helen's eyes rested for moment on
her brothers face. With an almost i'm
perceptible movement Of lid and eyebrow
he treasured her.
''What time is dinner? I told him to
come at Z o'clock" said he, holding out
his cup for more tea.
THAT is right" answered Helen.
"You would have done BETTER" said
the Admiral, still unpacifed, ito have
given the man dinner at your club"
"Oh" replied his son, serenely, AZ
wanted you and Helen to make his ac-
qualntance; besides, could not have in
vited Muggins to the club"
.'Muggins!" growled the old gentleman,
interrogatively.
THE dog"
"Ah! Is he presentable sovt of fell
low, then, that you want your sister to
meet him?"
"rhe dog?' inquired Grace, with much
innocence.
"No." laughed his father, despite him
self; "the man-Tyre, or Sidon, or what
ever his name is"
"Tyars. Yes; think so. Tyars is
distinctly presentable, or else I would not
have suggested his coming to dine with
Helen-and Agnes Winter"
Helen had moved away toward the
window, and was now leaning against the
folded and old-fashioned shutter. She
turned and looked at her brother as he
spoke, with that gentle, womanly scru-
tiny.
Like her brother, Helen Grace favored
to some extent gravity Of demeanor
when in repose, and her face was of that
fefined type which possesses great mo-
bility. Some faces there are which seem
to have brought from old times recol-
lection of gay knights, full of poetry and
full of fight; Of troubadours and patient
women Oswin and Helen Grace were of
this mold. In profile the chiseling of
either face was perfect, for Helen was
but refined miniature Of her brother;
and In smiling their gray eyes lighted up
with the self-same soft merrimeEt.
As she stood in the soft sunlight look
ing sideways toward her brother her ten
derness was visible. These two were the
only children of dead mother, who il
she had never quite understood her hus-
band had at all events possessed the pow
er Of loving her children Oswin Grace

must, and during the short spells allowed

tion he had not learned to know his sis

ter very well--not weil enough to forget
that he owed to her the respect due to all
women.
The two men now started converse
ton upon very nautical matters, employ
ing such technical terms and waxing so
interested that Helen sought chair near
the window and settled down to listen
with respectful silence. When the Al
miral had left the room Oswin crossed
the floor and stood beside his sister, his
scrutinizing glance cast downward.
How is Agnes Winter" he asked.
"She is very well. Did those flowers
remind you of herr"
"Ye-es,' he replied, slowly. 1 wonder
why?'
Because she arranged them, l sup

denly, as if struck at the possibility or
her idea being of some weight.
Perhaps so. She is not engaged YETI

care and stopped over her work.

While added Grace, airily, her dear
friend flirts here and firts there, but
keeps clear of the serious part OF it all
with equal skill"
(which friend? inquired Helen, in
nocently.

The girl FASTENED to supply his wants,
performing her duties with a deft sure
ness of touch where maidens are not
dolls. While Grace was performing won
ders among the dainties supplied to him,
his father read aloud the details of his
deeds upon the high seas, and Helen
listened with a faint smile of pride upon
her refined face.
"And this man." she inquired, when
the paragraph had been duly digested--
''the man you have asked to dinner

limp slice Of bread and butter with great
thoughtfulness.

Agnes Winter-why should she be put
off? Let her come, by all means"
The little mans manner was perhaps
too Indifferent to be either natural or
polite. He was either unconsciously rude
or exaggerating an indifference he did not
feel. Helen, however, continued her re-
marks without appearing to notice any
thing.
Would you not" she inquired, while
replacing in it's vase flower that had be-
come displaced, rather have him quite

regret.

claimed, dramatically.
