Loving An Enemy

She had one other child beside the boy whom she was bringing up to ven geance, and that was daughter. Mar garet, the sweetest and loveliest flower that ever bloomed in Trevoitdale.
 Margaret was of sweet and gentle disposition and was just bursting into womanhood.
 Her mother had discovered. to her horror and rage, that this daughter of hers had fallen in love with the young Baron Henry Cranston, one of the hated race which she had devoted to de- struction.
 The gentle Margaret and Baron Hen ry had met. by chance, in Edinburg, and since then many secret meeting had they had in the great woods which lay beyond the castle bounds.
 Knowledge of this had been brought to the lady's ear, and Lady Buccleuch had done what many mother, under like circumstances, has done before and since. She had soundly berated Mar. garet. and had locked her up in hei room.

Dealer in Glamourie

She was woman of high and lofty, al- most masculine spirit, and on one occa- sion, after her husbands death, she had ridden at the head of his clan in a border fight.
 Her ladyship was learned, as we'll as strong minded, and fond of the study of the occult.
 Had she lived in these days people would have said that she dabbled in the- osophy. spiritualism and the like; as she lived in medieval days people looked askance at her and said she "dealt in glamourie.'
 Such was lady Buccleuch of Brank- some and such her establishment.
 And now. after the feast in the great hall had been clared. she repaired to her room in one of the towers, filled with anger and perturbed in spirit

out from Handsome. The only sounds heard were the steps of the watchfu1 sen- tinels and the changing of ax and ham, mer where, upon the lower lawn the ar tisans were erecting the lists for the combat of the morrow.
 Margaret passed a sleepless night. With the first glimpse of dawn she arose and. going to the window looked down Into the courtyard. She saw a stately war rior pass below. He raised his head-it was Baron Henry of cranstoun!

 How, thought the lady, oould there be direr need of the Buccleuchs than when daughter of the house was bent upon marrying her familys hereditary foe?

Her Trusted Outlaw

N She went with firm and swift tread to the great hall where the retainers were lounging about and called to her William of Deloraine.
 He was of the house of Scott and a bolder moss trooper never led a foray across the border or disturbed the peace of the countryside by feudal war and pri- vate quarrel. He had been five times outlawed by the King of England and by the Queen of Scotland.
 But outlawry In those days was fre- quently matter of form only and. se- cure amid the wids of the border where the warrants of kings and queens were less thought of than tho commands of feudal chiefs, William of Deloraine had found a secure retreat in the Castle of Branksome.

 Hastily did the knight mount one of the steeds which always stood in readiness and, without questioning his lady's com mands. spurred out for Melrose

The Monk of St. Mary's Aisle

It was late when he left the castle 1t was midnight when he saw rise be- fore him the great sculptured pile of the abbey.
 He knocked loudly with the hilt of his dagger upon a postern door of the con vent connected with tho abbey--it was opened to him by porter and he de- manded to talk with the Monk of St. Mary's Aisle on business for the Lady Bucceuch.
 He was taken to the cell of the aged monk He was a man who had counted hundred winters, with thin locks and white beard.
