''Why," replied Almeric, she's been giving him money, hasn't she? You took it to him yourself, didn't you? Nat urally we understood what it was for. She's trying to keep the beggar quiet"
 "So that's what she sent the poor cuss the money for, was it? That's he way you look at it, eh?" the Amer tcan asked.
 "Why, of coursei What other req son could there be?" asked the other.
 "WeIl, you know I'd sort of gath cred 1t was because she was sorry for him-thought he'd been wronged, but, of course, I'm stupid!''
 "Wen, rayther! I don't know that it was so necessary for her to hush him up, but it showed a very worthy intention in her, didn't it, eh, nowT Pike looked at him carefully.
 Would you mind my being present when you thank her for ft?' he asked, and Almeric laughed riotously. shouldn't in the least if I intended to thank her It simply shows that she considers herself already one of us. It's perfectly plain-as plain as you are, eh?"
 He. walked off whistling. Pike gazed after him with an admt rable chuckle. As he turned about he saw Ethel standing at the head of the steps, and there was a sad look upon her face.
 'I hear that Lord Hawcastle has left" she said quietly,
 "Yes. I saw him go last night" he answered, looking up at her. He left very quickly" she said ab- gently

"He did seem to be forgetting the scenery" the American replied. Did you see Ivanoff?"
 "Yes. I am almost sorry.s He made so much of-what I could do."
 There are some good people over here, ain't there?' he ventured, and she looked at him quickly.
 "when you are at home again hope you will remember them," she said.
 'I will,'' he replied.
 "And I hope you will forget every thing I ever said," she went on.
 Somehow it doesn't seem likely as if ever would" he returned.
 "Oh, yes, you will,'' she said. "All those unkind things I said to you''-
 ''Oh. I'll forget those easy" he in terrupted quickly, and she went on, almost tearfully:
 And the other things, too, when you're once more among your kind, good home folks-and probably there's one-you'll be so glad to get back to you'll hardly know you've been away an unworldly girl, one that doesn't need to be cured of-oh, all sorts of follies-a kind girl, one who's been sweet to you. I can see her; she wears white muslin and waits by the gate for you at twilight. Isn't she like thatT'
 He shook his head.
 "No, not like that"
 But there is some one there" she asked.
 He smiled sadly.
 Well, she's only been there in a way I've had her picture on my desk for a good while. Sometimes when go home in the evening she kind of seems to be there. I bought q honey old house up on Main street, you know; it's the house you were born in.

 'tYou hGvenU heard the last of this curse youv' he said and disappeared quickly. Lady Creech, who had been in a semi-swooning condition, came suddenly out of her trance and gazed sharply about her.
 Don't mumble your words" she said sharply and rose to her feet. With a whitening glance at Pike she turned to Ethel.
 t'Come, my dear," she said 'This terrible place is not for you. Let us go."
 Horace came suddenly to life and closed his dropping jaw. He stepped forward and faced the old lady.
 My sister will remain for . time, Lady ACreech," he said. 'T will look after her-in the future"
 Lady Creech put up her lorgnette and stared at him and with a naughty snifH left the room with the air of a conqueror. Pike gazed after her whim- sica1ly.
 There goes the last of the em- presses" he said and looked down at his feet,
 Twice Ethel essayed to speak, and
 
 rection, and both times she failed. Then, with choking little sob, she picked up her dress and fairly ran from the room. Horace followed her quickly, and still Pike stood there in an attitude of incomprehension.
 The point he had striven for had failed. He had shown this girl the true rottenness of the people she had tried so hard to ally herself with, and the knowledge had failed to move her. His brilliant plan had recoiled upon his own head and had resulted in more firmly implantang . sense of duty in her heart. He saw no way out now. At first it had been a desire-now it had become duty, and he wondered If he had the right to withhold from her her patrimony.
 It was not until he saw a dark figure with bag in it's hand walk quickly down the steps and out through the entrance garden, not until he had heard the creak of carriage springs and the muttered directions and then the crunch of the wheels, that be awoke. He called a passing servant Mariana, it proved 1t be-and question ed him.
 .Who was thatr' he asked Mariana bowed deeply.
 "It is milor' the Earl of Hawcastle,' p he replied. "He has gone to keep the appointment he have made some days since at Napoli, 1t is said" Y
