The island of Jersey Is one OF the
oldest corners OF King Edwards realm
Anchored within sight Of France, orig
inally peopled by sturdy Normans, the
Jersey folk OF to-day present n strange
racial mixture, forming little world
where French shrugs are to be seen
on English shoulders.
Within Jerseys limited area Of but
ten miles one way and six In another
may be found the most varied coastal
scenery, the richest foliage and rarest
flowers, the narrowest Of picturesque
streets or lanes, the oldest Of farm
houses the Quaintest of fisher and farm
folk, the strangest Of fish in the st.
Heller market, and the largest cabbage
stalks In the United Kingdom
Scores of bays, no two alike, indent
the eoast-some with pebbly beaches
others with white or red sand floors
some bounded by towering cliffs bearing
ancient castles on their SUBMITS: some
shelving gently from the uplands. White
lighthouses warn the sailor of the
eyer-present danger from the sunken
rocks lying in wait for their prey. Fair

consultation at Lincoln's Inn had been
occupied In other ways. The only per-
sonal thing he had found time to do for
himself was to write a letter to Lord
Avon. And now, the days work over,
and his dinner over, he was mentally de-
liberating as to whether he should at once
apply to the police for counsel in bis curl
Gus dilemma, or wait and see what the
next day or two would bring forth
when he heard the sound Of visitor ap-
preaching.
A gentleman of free and easy manners
had run up the stairs to the door which
bore on 1t the name of "Mr. Charles
Baumgarten." Knocking with the silver
head of his very elegant cane, he had
stood humming a tune until the summons
was answered by the boy, Joe. Master
In 2" he cried, airily, and walked forward
without waiting for reply, as If he knew
his way about the chambers as we'll as
Joe himself did. The boy stared in amaze
ment; he had never seen two people SO
much alike as this gentleman and his
master.
Charley, lad Joe heard him say in
salutation.
The resemblance was certainly wonder
full. Height, figures, features, even the
voices were the same, Only in the ex-
preston Of the two countenances a differ
ence might be seen. That OF Cyras was
gay, light, laughing, as II he had never
in his whole life heard Of a thing called
care; that of Charles was thoughtful and
rather sad And their resemblance to
their late father, the dean of Denham was
as great as it was to one another.
Don't you know me, CharleyT'
Intense surprise had struck Charles
dumb.
''Yes, know you, Cyras, my brother;
but l can't believe yet that 1t Is really
you"
There's no mistaking the likeness"
laughed Cyras. Look at yourself in the
glass, and then look at me. Folks might
VOW we were twins. You are silent with
surprise, Charley"
Il am more than surprised; l am be-
wildered. Sit down. How long have you
been in England"
"A few weeks. But most Of 1t has
been spent In Paris, not in England. I've
been sticking to work like brick for a
long time, and l thought l had earned a
holiday; so l came over to the old coun-
try, to see you all. When l arrived I
found you had all flown in different direc-
tions; you gone ON circuit, and Berkeley
Square shut up"
They are staying at Great Wilton
with Uncle Avon. You should have sent
us word that you were coming, Cyrasa"
II couldn't. l steamed away from We'll
lington the very same day that l made up
my mind to come over. The fact Is,
Charley, but 1 need not bother you
by going into everything" added Cyras
"How Is the dear motherW

"And Gertrude2 Is she as pretty as

CHAPTER w

The trees at Great Wilton grew
bright with the tender green of Spring,
and the hedges were budding into leaf.
Gertrude Baumgarten was slowly walking
through one Of the country lanes toward
Avon House, enjoying the freshness of
the morning. The sun shone, the skies
were blue and unclouded, the air felt
warm almost as that of a summers day,
and the birds sung with a rapture that is
so celebrating on these days when all
nature is springing into new life and
beauty.
Leaning over the small wicket which
was placed only few yards from the
large iron gates at Avon House, stood
Lord Avon, looking at her as she ad-
vanced.
You are back at last, Gertrude?"
AT last?" she repeated. "Why7 Have
you wanted me, Uncle Avon?'

That it Is possible only when every

That to be In her own place, wher-
