ms great strength. his reckless cour-
age, his subtle way Of mastering men
by appearing to be mastered by them,
held her in the thran of a peculiar
fascination which. In quiet periods.
she looked upon as something deeper.
Marriage was not to her an ideal state,
nor was there any man, living or dead,
who had appealed to the physical side
Of her. But he was in the ono sex
what she was in the other: and while
she herself would never have married
him. she ragged inwardly at the posi-
bility Of his wanting another woman.
To her the social fabric which holds
humanity together was merely a con-
venience; the moral significance
touched neither her heart nor her
mind. In her the pfimordial craving
for ease. for material comforts, pref
ty trinkets and gowns was strongest
developed. It was as II this sense had
been handed down to her, untouched

Little they'd have cared. But always
the rebel spirit died within her as she
stepped outside the villa gates. To

which she was fond, things to which

table. The scene would not have been
without interest either to the specula-
tive physiognomist or to the dramat-
list. To each It would have represent
ed one of those astonishing moments
when the soul Of q person comes out
Into the open, as one might express 1t,
lncautiously. to be revealed in the ex-
pressions Of the eyes and the mouth.
These four persons were about going
forward upon . singularly desperate
and unusual enterprise. From now on
they were no longer to ferce with one
another, to shift from this topic to
that, with the indirect maneuvers Of
house-cat intent upon the quest of
the Friday mackerel. The woman's
face was alive with eagerness; the
oldest man looked from one to the
other with earnest calculation; Wal
lace no longer hid his cupidity;
Ryanne's immobility of countenance
was in itself a tacit admission to the
burning Of all his bridges that he
might become part of this conclave.
Smuggling" said the major, with
prudent lowering Of voice, evidently
continuing some previous debate.
smuggling is fine art, keen sport
Ing proposition: and the consequences
of discovery are never serious. What's
q fine of a. thousand dollars against
the profits of many successful excur-
sions into the port of New York?
Nothing, comparatively. For several
years. now, we have carried on this
business with the utmost adroitness.
Never have we drawn serious atten.
ton. We have made two or three
blunders, but the suspicious Of the Sc
cret.service were put to sleep upon
each occasion. We have prospered.
Here is gem, let US say, worth on
this side a thousand; over there we
sell 1t for enough to give us clean
profit of three or four hundred. Forty
per cent. upon our investment. That
ought to be enough for any reasonable
person. Am I right"
Mrs. Chedsoye alone was unrespon.
sive to this appeal.
II continue, then. We are making
enough to lay by something for our
old age. And that's the only goal
which never loses its luster. But

"My dear Kate, allow me to relieve

falls; there is hidden menace In ev-
cry step of it. Mayhap death; who
knows? The older grow, the more I
cling to material comforts, to enter
prises Of small dangers. However. as
you infer, there's no going back now"
"No," assented Ryanne, his mouth
hard; mot If 1 have to proceed alone"
She smiled at him. "You talk Of
danger" speaking to the major. what
danger can there be-"
"The unforeseen danger, the danger
Of which we know nothing, and there

do not see 1t, my dear, but 1t is there,

Wallace nodded approvingly. Ry-
anne shrugged.

words: "The people ara not al

In explaining that "the people
do not always know what they

Salisbury? The officers here

The surprise of the matter
is that in view of the large

Can it be possible they do not
