The Portraits.

Mrs. Lampirthy. after many useless
tears and violent protestations. had been
forced to accept the inevitable, and. few
DAVIS after her husbands first interview
with Mr.. Mallard. she moved the whole
of her large establishment down to
Watersmeet.
The great castle. which lay some fifty
miles inland from Gaunt Royal. had only
recently been purchased by her husband.
and neither of them had as yet spent
more than a few nights in the place.
Directly Mrs. Lampirthy installed her
self in her new home she let every one
know that things were going to be done
with a regal splendor in keeping with her
enormous wealth. She had an army of
servants. thirty-two horses and four
motor cars. She kept open house and
lavished money in the district to such an
extent that it became the mecca of every
vagabond in Wales.
Fifty years ago this woman would
have had to cringe and toady to get
into the best society. But ideas have
changed since then. The toadying and
the chinging are all on the other side
now. The god of wealth is supreme.
There was no lack OF society round
Watersmeet. The motor car had so ami
hilated the distance between country
houses that the possible circle of ones
acquaintances is almost too large. The
whrl of society is as fast and exhaust
ing as in a London season. Friends who
live forty miles away drop in to lunch
and 80 of again in the afternoon. They

In the meantime Father Francis moved
along the path he had mapped out for
himself. and looked neither to the right
nor to the left. The fierce tumult of the
newspaper warfare, the noise of change
and destruction, which was attracting
the attention of the world. only came to
his ears as a faint echo.
Then reporters began to follow him
and. though they used their cameras with
good results. they were unable to obtain
an interview. He was as inaccessible as
the king himself. He refused to say any
thing about either his work or his life
when I speak, he said to the repre-
sentative of great paper, Il speak to all
who choose to hear me- My message Is

the heart of Wales, and thence by easy
stages to the coast of Cardiganshire

You can take it as compliment that

you'll make the most of that.
'"I'll expose the whole business-tomor-
row. I'll show you. Mr.. Lampirthy, what
the power of the press is like" He
stretched out his hand to a bell and then
paused. Mr.. Lampirthy had risen to his

Good day said Mr.. Lampirthy. with
his fingers on the handle of the door.
land please remember that. if a word of
this interview becomes public property
you will have to turn your attention to
some other business.
He opened the door and closed it behind
him. Mr.. Mallard rang the bell for his
shorthand clerk and dictated kilograms.
From editor to printers devil, every liv-
ing soul in the Office of the Daily Bio
graph was destined to feel the lash of Mr..
Mallard's tongue for many hours to
come.
