Il accept 1t, Mr.. Berton," he said.
Il fancy we both lost our tempers,
didn't we? At any rate, / am sure l
did. But, you see, disliked being dis
turbed at my work as much as you
did at your thinking And after all it
was who was in the wrong, as well

for he was going to say, as you tried
to make me out
Il hear that you are staying at
the rooms at The Chequers?"

little rooms they are"
yes. I am living in a small cot
tage in the lane close by; any one
will show it to you. Perhaps If You
are not more proftably or pleasantly
engaged you will come in and smoke
cigar with me this EVENING"
He gave the invitation almost in the
same tone as that in which he had
offered his apology, and Cyril would
have liked to have declined, but, think
ing it would seem ungraeious, he ac-
cepted at once.

Very well. then" said Guilford Ber-
ton.
81 am going to the Court" he said
slowly, "and shall see the earl. am
sure that he win permit me to convey
to you his permission to go about the
estate"
Thanks very much" said Cyril.
It's very good of you. But l saw the
earl this afternoon and he was kind
enough to make me free of the place :"
you saw the earl? I'm very glad.
Then-this EVENING"
''Yes, about nine O'Clock, IL that's
not too early" and Guilford Berton
rode slowly off in the direction of the
Court.
Some feeling that he could not explain
caused Cyril to glance back after he
had gone few hundred yards, and he
did so in time to see the pink dress
fit close up beside the black horse.
It was there only a moment, for Cyril
saw, or fancied he saw, Guilford Ber-
ton raise his hand with a warning
gesture and Becca disappeared again.

CHAPTER VII.

Cyril Burne stood looking after
Norah and the earl Tor some moments.
then he went back to his easel. But
he could not work The beauty OF the
scene which he had SO reyeled in a
short time ago had mysterlously aed
the sun was still shining. the trees
still their summer beauty, but the
joyous light had somehow disappeared
at the moment Norah had passed from
sight
He sat and gazed abseutly at the
sketch but he saw not it, but the love
ly face with its expressive eyes and
the wealth Of golden-brown hair. He
had been smitten By her beauty on
the preceding afternoon but now that
he had talked with her, basked in her
smile, watched the thousand express
sions that flashed In the lovely eyes

smile
She came up to him and looked a;
the sketch, and the thought crossed
Cyrii's mind that he had quite a grand
private view that day.
IT'S very pretty" she said; then,
as she looked at him again she made a
half curtsey and said, her face Grim

Didn't you? Well, that's a mistake
other people often make. And, after
all, perhaps I'm not. But we won't
argue the question; you have done
nothing that requires my pardon. Are
you waiting for some one?"
NO." she said in a low voice. Il
was looking at the deer"
He nodded. He was sure that he
had not seen her before, and yet some
how her voice seemed familiar to hira.
Suddenly there flashed upon him the
recollection of the fragment of con-
versation he had heard by the horse
pond last night and he looked at her
with more interest.
DO ycl live near here?" he asked
I'm the village, sir"
we'll suppose / mustn't ask you
your name?" he said, with the frank
smile in his eyes and about his lips
that was so characteristic and irresist-
ible.
"Oh, yes, sir; Pm Becca South"
'Becca? That's short for Rebecca,
suppose? Well, it's a pretty name,
you're a pretty girl' he was
going to add, thoughtlessly, but 1t
struck him at the moment that it was
scarcely wise thing to add to the
vanity already existing behind the
pretty face-"and now | must be
going" he said instead, and he began
to pack up his things. In doing SO he
dropped his box of colors, and Becca
quite naturally went down on one knee
to help in their recovery.
You are very kind and l am very
clumsy" he was saying, With laugh,
when. as if from the ground Guilford
Borton and his black horse stood be-
fore them.
Becca uttered a cry and let drop
the box, and Cyril, looking up, fancied
he saw, if not fear, look Of recogni-
ton in her face, which had grown sud-
denly peony-colored; but Mr.. Gull
ford Berton glanced at her in ours
DRY sort Of way.
"Ah, Becca," ne said carelessly.
She stood Tor a minute, her eyes
fixed upon the ground. then putting
the box on the edge of the easel, turn
ed and disappeared among the trees

thing in the distance She had not
seen him, and he had sat too motion
less and quiet for her to have heard
him. He wondered vaguely what she
was looking at until he saw waiting,
impatient look.
A lover has no eyes for any other
woman than the mistress of his
heart, but Cyril Burne was an artist,
and he noticed that the girl was more
than pretty, and he watched her as
she stood tapping her small foot on
the ground and plucking at the cheap
but neat lace on her drsss-watchel

Suddenly she turned her head, as
one instinctively does when one is
watched, her dark face flushed and
she made a movement as If to conceal
herself behind the trees, but as Cyril
mechanically raised his hat she STEP
ped forward and stood looking at him
half-shyly, half-defantly.

OUT HERE IN YAKIMA.

l
And feel inclined to roam
To some other distant country,
In search of better home;
If your pocketbook is getting lighter,
If worry from your nervous fund does
draw;
For prosperity and contentment
Stop off at Yakima.
If your health is well-nigh falling,
Your days are filled with weary pains;
If your very bones are groaning
And your limbs feel weak and lame;

You'll find you're not mistaken IL your
choice is Yakima.

OF natures art would sing,

Gay plumed birds upon the wing,
The winding, blowing river,
The prettiest farms you ever saw;

Right here in Yakima.
If you're scientifically inclined
Toward archaeology,
Or are something of an enthusiast,
Like Leconte, in geology;
If you are naturalist, cen,
You need travel no farther at all.
There's plenty of room for all research
In the valley of Yakima.
If you've been dwelling 'mongst the
plodders
And are tired of their backward ways;
If you're hunting thrifty people
Who know wherein success lays,
Who've got the grit and push about
them,
Work more for the better than show,
You will find this kind of people
Right here in Yakima.

To lift you upon your feet,
And willing are to do your best

To hinder your advancement,
Not one in Yakima.

To your likeing, we will say.
Whether you be merchant or mechanic,
Contractor or real estate;

Or If you are dairyman,
Our diaries are the best;
If you favor the creamery business.
Our cream stands the highest test;
Cheese maker, saw mill owner,
Rancher, agent, attorney-at-law;
No matter what your choice may be.
You'll succeed in Yakima.
If you're hunting enlightened people
Who keep up with the times.
Who can talk ON any subject
You hold dear within your mind;
Who are full Of information
And can speak without flaw:
They're here. the educated farmer
Tills the soil Of Yakima.
For peace and quick prosperity,
For health and its blessing rare,
For good friends and surroundings
That congenial to you are.
For life's greatest, truest blessings,
That care at your heart strings may
not gnaw,
Pack your trunk, put on your hat
And start for Yakima.
