haughtily. Down that Anyway and

med the door in J%ocelyn's face.
For a moment, speechless with fury,
Jocelyn meditated an assault upon
the mahogany panels; then, control
ling himself, he descended the stairs
and rang the bell of the area. as he
had been directed. A stout cook in a
blue dress came to the kitchen door.
Walk right in, young man. she
shrilled, extending the door inviting!y.
"And wipe your feet. Miss Mary's
particular. You'll find Connie in that
room back there"
Lord Jocelyn passed through a dark
passage, thinking he heard whispered
giggling from every side. Once, too,
he fancied he heard the odious words,
Comics new beau!" But he disre-
garded these external signs of his fan
Gees position In the Davenant house

Impracticabllity.

This thing of doing in Rome 70 the
Romans do is not always the best
plan. says the Popular Magazine. II
you don't believe 1t Miss Jane Adams,
the famous sociological worker OF Chi
cago, will tell you a story to prove It,
Miss Adams knew q wealthy wom-
an who delighted in doing works of
charity. such as sending missionaries
to foreign fields. and on one occasion
she put up the money to send a mis-
sionary to the Caroline islands. Soon
after his arrival on the scene Of his
activities the religious man sent his
b~enefactress q photograph OF himself
and his wife.
Whereupon the rich woman wrote
the man OF God a letter, suggesting
that his wife. in order to win the CON
fidence Of the natives, should throw
away her fine clothes and wear the
costume OF the, islands. Two months
later she received this answer:
Enclosed is the complete costume
worn by native women MY wife
awaits further word from you befors
adopting It.
The native dress consisted Of
piece of woven straw. two inches wide
and eight inches long.

and left him sitting m~editatively with
out. bordering over this new problem
that had arisen so swiftly and yet had
beer SO happily solved. 1t was past
midnight when he went to bed.
Mass Davenant received the news
with equanimity. At the breakfast Ia
bic IN the following morning she con-
graduated him and his fa1cee kind
ly. Both ladies were in travelling
dress.
land SO you're not Lord Jocelyn aft
er alp" she said. We'll, you must
and visit US just the same. 1t Is
too bad that your engagement should
have cut short our happy time togeth-
er here"
But why should it be cut short,
Miss Davenant?" Lord Jocelyn asked.
When do you leave?"
This afternoon" she answered.
ut would hardly be the thing to
leave you two young people together
here unchaperoned."
In this decision she proved inexor-
able, and she bore her companion
away on the early afternoon train,
promising Richard, however, that he
might visit the ladies at Miss Dave
nant's town house on Ffty-ifth street,
New York. ON the third day, when
they had flushed the autumnal house

her hand and caught it in his own.
81 love you, Mary" he stammered.
'Will you give me my answer"
He drew her toward hin and felt
her arms circle his neck. Then her
head lay on his breast, and, bending
down, he kissed the lips of-Con-
stance Grice!
A feeling Of intense despair over
mastered him. He had played his
cards, and fate had proved too pow
erful. But this was followed by a
sudden delirious joy. Well, if Con-
stance Gr;ce had by this miracle been
given to him, why should he place
duty to his family before the dictates
Of his heart? Rent by two conflict
ing emotions, he stood gazing out into
the tumbliag sea, needless Of the girl
who still lay silently in his arms.
Presently Constance Grice olsen
gagged herself and looked up al him.
why are you SO sad?" she asked.
at is because you have learned that
1 love you?"
THAT has made me happier than
ANYTHING in the world, Constance" he
answered.
".Constance!'" she repeated. Are
you thinking Of my companion? Why
do you call mi that?"
Because I have penetrated your wise
little secret, dearest" Jocelyn answer
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1912-05-10

And then and there Richard Lord
%JCcelyn, was put TO the test Of his
lille.
Down by the waves at Atlantic City,
when the two had associated
on terms Of practical equality, Joce-
Ign had been wholly ignorant OF and
Indifferent to social ratings and ranks.
1t was enough for him hat he loved,
and that nature attune herself to his
wooing. But here, in these abodes of
men, recalled with suddenness to
those customs and ideas which a
thousand years of civilization had
hardened into a traditional code-how
could he stoop to raise this servant
in the ill-fitting dress to his W social
level? How could he take her to
wife, bring her back to Doublewith
Manor, introduce her to h country.
side?
And yet he had been trained in the
conventional code of honor OF a gen
tleman. Whatever he did he must do
quickly. for Constance Grice had read
the struggle in his face and. no longer
ashamed, was watching him %curiously.
And then. instead of disgust and
self-pity, Jocelyn felt only low new
risen, n stronger than before. He
clasped her in his arms and kissed
her, and his fears dissolved like shad-
before the sun.
Connie, darling, l must tell you
now" he said. 81 really am Lord
Jocelyn. and not an undertaken. l
wanted to test your owe and now l
know it as surely as / know mine for
you"
wei said, Richard" cried a voice
outside the door, and out of the dark
passage emerged his stepmother. Rich
ard looked at her in little surprise. So
many astonishing things had been hap
pening that n more hardly counted.
"She was testing you, too. Richard
his stepmother said. This is Mary
Davenant, my half-sister, and the best
amateur actress in New York. Now.
don't you dare to scold her, my dear
boy. If you blame anybody you can
blame me, but it was you own sus-
picious nature set the trap, and you
yourself walked into it. l gave the
order to the footman to turn you away
from the front door. And Mary was
acting strictly under my own orders.
too, for she, like yourself, wanted to
test YOU love for her."
But knew you loved me, dearest"
said Mary Davenant, smiling through
the tears that stood IN her eyes. BE
cause you did want me for myself aft
er all"
Then all l can say to you young
people," said his %stepmother, sis go
and trust each other henceforward al
together for the rest Of YOU lives"
But you-you deceived me all
along" blurted out Lord Jocelyn an
grily.
81 did, Richard" said his stepmoth-
er. They say they have to drive a
donkey backward to get him IN
where, and since you wouldn't be
driven the way you ought to go. why

known the purpose of your visit to
Atlantic City, as o truly surmised.
Like you, she has a duty to her famt-
ly, and that is to marry a title-but
she would never marry a man who
had not proved his devotion. That is
obviously the cause Of her mas
querade. You must marry her. Rich
ard; she is not Indifferent to you and
you would learn to love each other"
But to have the most charming girl
in the world rammed down ones
throat is an attraction that is apt to
cloy, and Richard, eve perverse, soon
discovered that the blue-eyed compan-
ion, already more attractive to him
that the dark-haired Mary Davenant.
had made a profound impression on
his heart. The knowledge that she
was forbidden to him, added to the
sense Of his obligation to marry the
heiress, rapidly began to render him
a hopeless victim to Miss Grice's
charms. He saw that, unless he could
bring himself to propose to Mary
Davenant Immediately, he would eve
do so, and, in despair, selected his OPP
%portunity one clear and warm October
night, when the moon was not yet
arisen and profound darkness reigned
outside the well-lit hotel.
Hitherto he had not betrayed his
knowledge Of their masquerade, but
now, seized with a sudden resolution,
he stopped in his walk as the three
paced the piazza side by side.
Miss Davenant," he said hoarsely,
turning toward the dark-haired heiress
and desperately nerving himself for
the attempt, will you come down to
the stone seat at the end of the
grounds with me? Let us listen to
the sea together"
Without any further explanation or
apology to the other for his seeming
diseourtesy, he led the way to the
end of the grounds, until they stopped
at the stone bench beneath the wall
which maintains the green of the grass
against the encroachments of the sand.
He felt Miss Davenant follow him, al
most by some sixth sense. rather than
anything else, for he could see moth
ing in that intense darkness, and her
slippered feet made no soard upon the
turf.
At the seat he turned, and heard the
light rustic of her scarf as the wind
blew it around her.
Il want to ask you to be my wife,
Miss Davenant," he said n%ervously.
She made no answer, but seemed to
await his further words, motionless,
silent, as though she were herself a
part of the darkness. Jocelyn felt for

ed. Il have known for Gays that Miss
Davenant had persuaded you to charge
names with her. so as to test me. For
she knew | loved her and she feared
that il vas for her wealth and not for
herself" He broke off abruptly. lie
was like a swimmer in t~reacherous
waters. He could not think clearly.
Dared he pursue this i~nfatuation to
its i~rrevocable termination? Could he
indeed settle himself to mar this
companion. dearly as he loved her,
without some further proof of her de-
votion? Suppose she, too, had tried
to trick him into his proposal?
By revealing his knowledge of her
secret he had shown in the clearest
possible ann that he loved her for
herself alone. But, if he defied his IA
Their and married demonstrating his
past experiences in love, might he not
be justified in proving her also? And.
since she had deceived him In he
testing, would he not be justified in
deceiving her in putting her to the
proof?
These thoughts ran through his
brain like lightning; hardly an appre
cable interval had elapsed before he
continued:
You asked me why I am sad" he
said. Constance, darling, will you
give me your word of honor that you
love me for myself alone? That you
are not enticed by the glamor of my
name?"A
why, no, Richard" she answered
wonderingly.
He led her to the stone bench and
sat down. But suppose that l We're
dishonorable," he said. Would you
still love me?"
you dishonorable?" she whispered.
laying her cheek against his own.
You could not be dishonorable, Rich
ard"
/. But I am" he said with a groan.
Il am a masquerader. l am not Lord
Jocelyn. Listen, Constance. I am
one of those Englishmen who, having
somehow acquired a knowledge of the
Ways of ge%ntlefolks, frequent this
country under false titles for the pur-
pose Of gaining wealthy brides. I
came to Atlantic City to pursue Miss
Davenant. But love claimed me and
1 am happier in my failure that If l
had succeeded. But I am no lord"
Then what are you, Richard?" his
companion demanded.
: He hesitated, casting round in his
mind for the occupation which might
most easily arouse disgust in her.
How could he put her to the hardest
test, something commensurate with
the sufferings that he must endure for
her?
-" the jingle ran through his mind.
Then, with an inspiration, he answer
ed:
81 am an undertaken, Constance.
Could you love an undertaken"
81 could love any honest man, Rich
ard" she answered. "And l honor you
only the more for having confessed
the truth to me-"
But what will Miss Davenant say?"
asked Jocelyn with a sudden qualm
Of regret.
Poor Nary" said Constance, smil-
ing. Richard, will you let ne break
the new to herr"
She parted from him at the entrance
