CHAPTER XIII.


In the handsome dra wing room of their
town residence in Berkeley Square sat
the dean of Denham and Lady Grace
Baumgarten. 1t was a fne evening in
April; the dinner hour was approaching,
and they were awaiting a guest, an old
friend whom the dean had met in the
street unexpectedly that day, and invit-
ed.
Years have elapsed. and the dean, ap-
preaching fifty now, is more portly than
he was wont to be; but Lady Grace
carries her age we'll, and looks not a day
older than the period a woman never con-
fesses to have passed-6ve-and-thirty. But
In the deans face there is a look of anx-
ious care.
Gifted with an aristocratic wife, and
she with aristocratic tastes and habits,
the dean had fallen long and long ago into
a more expensive rate of living than his
means permitted. Embarrassment follow.
ed, trifing enough at first, and easily put
of-not done away with, but deferred.
But the plan does not answer it is some
thing lke the nails in the horseshoe,
which doubled as they went on and DIR.
Baumgarten had now attained to a height
Of perple1ity in his ~pecuniary affairs not
frequently reached by a dignitary of the
church.
Half the labor of his later life had
been to hide it from Lady Grace. She
could not avoid knowing that they were
In debt, but she had no conception to
what extent, and debt is rather a fash
ioaable complaint. She also found that
the dean invariably ran short Of ready
money; but that is not either.
In one sense of the word, the debts which
had gathered about them might be put
down to the score Of Lady Grace. At
the death Of her mother, Lady Avon, she
had com into all the property that would
be hers-two thousand a year. With that
and the deans income they might have
lived sufficiently we'll. But Lady Grace
had little idea of the value of money.
Living in Berkeley Square was her do
ms; and was quite wrong and ridiculous
with their narrowed means.
To years before the present chapter
opens Lady Grace had come to London
On 4 visit to her brother. Lord Avon
had never married, and spent much Of
his time abroad, keeping his house-a
small one-in Piecadilly lone up in
brown holland and lavender. However,
he took possession Of it for a season.
invited his sister to stay with him, and
the dean. If he could come. A season
in town was perfectly delightful to Lady
Grace.

now that l have tasted it's sweets again."
she said to her brother one day. II think
l must lsOk out for some furnished house
to be had cheaply. Henry, and take it,"
"All right" said his lerdship, who had
given in to Grace from the time she was
a baby.

THIS CALLED A SkY-PIERcER.

towering Office Building in New
York 1 Feet High.
The towering office buildings of our
large cities have for a generation been
known as SKY scrapers" But when
a height Of 612 feet is attained in a
human hive Of this kind, we respect
fully suggest a slight revision of the
well-known name, making it "sky
piefcer" instead. 1t is not so many
years ago when all kinds Of disasters
were predicted for the tall buildings
In Chicago and New York which stood
ten. sixteen or even twenty stories
above the sidewalks, with a height Of
up to 800 feet. But the troubles pre-
dicted did not arrive, at least not on
time, and, on the contrary, the earth
quake in San Francisco seems to have
shown that the steel framed building.
In spite Of Its tallness, offered far bet
ter resistance to earthquake shocks
than buildings of ordinary dimensions
put up in the old way. The only rea-
sous that these sky-scrapers did NOT
defy both earthquake and fire, archi-
tects say. were, that the bracing of the
frame WORT was in some cases not
heavy and strong enough; and their
catching fire Is explained by the use
OF wood, for instance in window
frames. and by the absence of iron
window shutters or of means to quick
ly close them. But these defects have
been noted in San Francisco and else

"Come In, Cyras; I want you," she
said, drawing him gently to her. "Yeur
papa has been telling me that it was not
you who hit Charles and made his nose
bleed"

you deserved it. l an sorry to have done

always did hate me-"
Il hope not, Cyras. And l do not think
she would dare to say to me what was
not true"
"Oh, wouldn't she |" cried the bold boy.
She does 1t to get me into a row with
you and make you punish me. Didn't
she tell you it was me that made Char
ley's nose bleed just now, and didn't you
believe her and hit me for it? 1t wasn't
me, and nobody had told her it was me ;
but she took and said It,"
To Jaquet's infinite establishment, she
had her warning the next day. After a
few moments given to getting over her
discontinue, she. told her lady that at
the end of the month she had been in
tending to give warning on her own side,
for she was going to alter her condition.
Which meant that she was about to get
married. But when the name of the in
tended bridegroom was disclosed it pre-
voked some laughter from the deans
household, especially from his eldest son.
