Mrs. Moran intended to obey these injunc-
lions, but fate threw in her path temptation
too strong to be resisted. Hurrying along the
terrace she almost ran into the arms Of the
young Countess Of Glamoran, who, with bent
head and trailing white dress, was pacing up
and down in the faint starlight. Here was a
chance which al the empty years before her
might never bring again.
"My Lady" she began. ooh, my Lady,

in her hair, ON her hands and among the laces
on her breast.

rose and left the room. To the last his eyes
were fixed on the Countess of Glamoran and
she never noticed that he was gone. John,
too, kept his eyes on Dot
81 do not believe you," she said at last.
Don't" he implored. Don't believe any
thing, not your eyes, not what any one says to
you, not any rumors which may have reached
you. Believe nothing, except that Pat adores
you, and that this child-this wretched, miser-
able child-is more than a year older than
yours 1t was all over long ago. Believe
nothing but that, and forget even that il you
can. The child has been kept out of your path
ever since you came and shall be again." He
rose and went toward the head Of the table,
but Dorothy was quicker. She reached the
children first

and taking her in his arms. you're a noble

This was a complication upon which John
had never counted and which brought ruin
and disaster nearer than they had ever been.

"that I am mistress here. l choose to keep the
