THE bell in the tower uttered its three
notes again which were sounded every
hour, and Sister Christina rose and muir
INJURED the formula. But her companion
still did not move from her seat.
"You know why | came to this retreat,
added Christina in a hopeless tone. "And
perhaps I should have found peace of mind;
but Philip is always calling to me. | re-
ceive his letters, which l am permitted to
have during my postulancy; and in my cell,
when the hourly bell wakes me to prayer,
my first thought is, alas! not of devotion,
but of him. told you my story, on this
eve of my postulancy, half meaning to ask
you if you would counsel me, after all, to
60 back to him. But l see now how mad
such a hope is. / cannot imagine how
could have entertained it for an instant.
Forget what l have told you, Sister. To-
morrow shall be dressed as you are. The
love of Christ knows not these mutations
and selfish desires!"
Sister Agatha lifted her bowed head. She
raised her hands to her veil, and Christina
saw with amazement that they were trem-
bling as if palsied. She pushed the black
covering from her face
1t was the face of Princess Sonia Ivanici!
CHRISTINA uttered an inexpressible
- cry. Her lips parted; her eyes dilated
as she gazed upon that pale and shrunken
countenance which had once been beauti-
full; but the cheeks were fallen in, and the
lips were blanched, and deep lines were across
the once marble-smooth forehead.
@Mother of mercy!' gasped Christina.
"You have not told all the story" said
Sister Agatha, breaking with the slowly
spoken words two-years' silence. u will
finish it for you. Philip Romanesco did in
deed see us that night; but he did not hear
all that passed between us. And as we
walked away up the avenue you mentioned,
Zembiski told me that he had thought bet
ter of it, that he had wearied of me, and
that he was returning to you, his wife. That
confession, which CALLED me to the heart, did
not surprise me; for l had seen that he
tired of me. l expected it. But was not
made of the same stuff as his other victims.
NV woman's hate was capable of very differ
ent action; and as he spoke those words,
casting me off after all the promises he had
made to me,-for he had led me to believe
that l should, after had fled with him, be-
come his wife,-1n fingers closed round the
pistol had brought for my revenge.

ruption you have related occurred. | ran
away among the trees; but | stayed there.
The impending duel had given me an idea

In the meantime

stung into deadly calmness and acqui-
essence by that word 'horsewhip.'

Valentine.
aPhilip bowed, and the other rode off.
GCount Zembiski remained standing un-
der one of the elms in an attitude of moody
detection, his eyes fixed on the ground, and
what was singular-apparently forgetful
of Princess Sonia, who had fled. 1t was then
about ten o'clock. The music had resumed
in the distance, where the glare from thou
sands of electric lanterns extended a little
way upward and was then lost in. the vast
night which makes playthings of the great
est beacon fires. A half-moon had climbed
to the zenith of the sky, and its rays filtered
through the interviewer boughs of the trees
in the avenue. That part of the Prater was
altogether deserted; for everyone had been
drawn to the fete.
3Adolf's friend Valentine, accompanied
by another officer, soon reappeared. The
first had brought the Counts dueling pis-
tolls in a rosewood case. Preliminaries were
soon arranged. Philip made no objection
. to the weapons, of which he was given the
choice. The seconds separated the men by
.eleven PAGES, with their backs to each other.

adolf dropped to his face. Philip helped
to raise him. Blood was streaming from a
terrible wound in the Counts throat. He
struggled to speak; but all that could be
heard was the whistling of air in his wind
pipe. The scene, which never saw, haunts
me. The Count took Philips hand before
he died, and they told me that he smiled.
l see it now-that rare, real smile which
used to transform his cold, naughty face.
DHILIP told me something of this story
before left him on that dreadful even
ing; and later on Valentine told me the
rest. l scarcely remember being driven
home; but during the journey there kept
passing and repassing through my brain
fragments of the symphony l had heard at
the concert, -impassione chords, strivings
after happiness that could never be real

seemed an eternity my husband had been
brought back before me, and his dead body,
with candles burning at the head and feet,
waited to strike into my heart a remorse
that never leaves me-"
