The Minister'S Wife
By MRS. HENRY WOOD

melts in Paris. 1 brought about three
hundred pounds with me, and it's all
gone. I've telegraphed out to old Brice
to send me more"
why did you not pay the jeweler at
the time you bought his goods?"
The bill came to so much more than
1 had thought for and 1 hadn't enough
in my pocket. Oh, it's all right, old fell
low"
And, pray, Cyras, if I may put so
bold a question, for whom were all those
pretty things bought?"
For one and another. Some for my
self. Some for Gertrude. Some to send
out to Wellington"
Then you will go with me to these
people about the bills, Cyras-the jeweler
and the tailor?" resumed Charles, after a
pause.
III go now, if you like. 1 don't want
to let you in for annoyance, brother
nine"
You have let me in for a good deal
of that already, Cyras. Were you at the
Haymarket two or three nights ago."
yes"
"And there you were taken for me-
Who was the lady? 1t was half over
London the next day that l had been
there in suspicious company"
What a joke !" exclaimed Cyras. "I
knew l was being taken for you, Char
ley" laughed Cyras, carelessly. "Some
fellows nodded to me, and one or two
spoke, and l nodded back again and kept
up the jest"
"a sorry jest for me, Cyras. 1 was
engaged to be married-to Mary Dyne-
vor."
I'm uncommonly glad to hear it,"
cried Cyras, stretching out his hand to
grasp his brothers. MARY was the
incest of all the younger girls; as nice
as Cyrilla."
Il said L was engaged, Cyras. 1t is
broken off now. Old Miss Dynevor saw
me, as she thought, at the Haymarket
with some one l had no business to be
with; and she went home and told the
subdean. The next time 1 called in Eaton
Place he turned me out of. doors, and
bade me think no more of his daughter"

CHAPTER xxi

Cyras suddenly became serious. "This
has gone further than l intended" he
cried. "All my life 1 have been getting
myself or others into scrapes, and 1 sup
pose l shall do so to the end of the chap
ter. And the best and the worst of it is
that J. generally manage to come out in
worse colors than l deserve; as on this
OCCASION"
Charles looked up. Have they been
traducing you as well as me?" he asked.
THE lady 1 treated to the theater was
no other than Mrs. Darlington, as good
a woman as ever lived, although as Tony
Lumpkin would say, her cheeks are as
broad and red as a pulpit cushion. But
it is all genuine color, Charley, just as
she herself is a genuine woman.
What brought you there alone with
her? asked Charles.
THAT 1 was with her alone was an ac-
cident," answered Cyras. 81 treated them
to the Haymarket, and took three of the
best seats. At the last moment, just as
we were about to start in the cab, Car
rington's old father came in to spend the
evening, and he had to remain with him."
Il think you were imprudent, to say
the least of it," laughed Charles. 1.-THE
lady was wonderfully got up, 1 was told"
Like all born colonists, she is fond of
any amount of fans and feathers" re-
turned Cyras. 1T was her first intro
duction to a London theater, and a great
occasion to her, and she put on all her
war paint accordingly. But of other paint
she had none, Charley she is too honest
and good for that"
where are the Caringtons staying?"
with his brother. He's a widower,
and lives at a pretty house, up Chelsea
way. Decent, intelligent people, Charley (;
though, of course, not up to your mark"
And where are you staying, Cyras?"
81! You may well ask it. Finding
no home open to me on landing, the first
individual l dropped upon, after leaving
the ship at the docks, was Harry Brice.
He is in Somerset House, you know; get
ting on, too and was bound that morn
ing on some expedition to the customs
He told me you were on circuit; thought
the mother and Gertrude were at Avon,
and said | must come to them at Norwood
Down l went. But Norwoods out of
the way for a fellow who wants to knock
about town, and l came back to a hotel
Then 1 went to Paris with Tom Howard
And here | am back again. And now you
know all, Charley"
"Quite enough, too" laughed Charley.
We'll go to Whites now" And Cyras
agreed with alacrity.
The jewelers. shop was lighted when
they reached it. Mr.. White and his as
sistant were both in it. Charles walked
forward; Cyras held back a moment.
IL hear that bill Is protested, Mr..
White" began Charles.
YES, sir, or about to be-" answered
the jeweler. "And l must say am sur
prised that a gentleman like yourself
should allow things to come to such
pass. II it were not convenient to you
to pay it now, you might have renewed
it,"
81 tell You again. ms l toll you be
fore, that the bill is none of mine" said
Charles. 81 never bought the articles"
Cyras walked forward and stood beside
his brother.
Look at this gentleman" said Charles
Baumgarten.
The jeweler gazed in amazement. now
at one. now at the other. what does it
meanY he cried at last. "NYho are You,
siT?" turning to Cyras.
