TO-DAY'S INSTALLMENT.
Fifty-Fourth Chapter.

r TRIED to take refuge in religion.
Every day and all day I humbly
besought the pardon Of heaven
for the sin of loving Martin Conrad
The little religious duties which /
had neglected since my marriage
(such as crossing myself at rising
from the table, / began to observe
afresh, and being reminded by Mar

mother to say De Profundis for her

| thought these exercises would bring
me certain relief, but they did not.
I searched my Missal for words
that applied to my sinful state. and
every night on going to bed I prayed
to God to take from me all unholy
thoughts, all earthly affections But
what was the use of my prayers when
in the first dream of the first sleep |
was rushing into Martins arms?
It was true that my love for Mar
tin was what the world would call
pure love: it had no alloy OF any
kind but all the same | thought

Early every morning | went TO
mass. but the sense | used to have oil

the ordinary occupations of life with
a new spirit and a clean heart
could feel no longer.
| went oftener to confession than
had done before-twice a week to be-
gin with, then every other day, then
every day. But the old JOY, the sense
of purity and cleansing. did not come.
/ thought al first the fault-might be
with my confessor, for though l knew

rience of the deep temptations OF hu-
man love.
This was at the new Cathedral al
Westminster, so ] changed to a little
Catholic Church in a kind Of news in
Mayfair. and there my confessor was
an older man, whose quayering voice
seemed TO search the very depths OF
my being He was deeply alarmed at
my condition and counseled me TO
pray to God night and day TO
strengthen me against temptation.

do?"
l told her what she was not to do.
She was not to call the doctor under
any circumstances. and when Martin
came she was to make it plain to him
That she had acted on her own re-
sponsibility.
Toward midnight he arrived. and
Price brought him into my room in a

thought Everything my heart de-
sired my soul condemned as sinful
and religion had done nothing to lib
crate me from the pains OF my guilty
passion.
All this time my husband and
Alma were busy with the gayeties OF
the London season, which was then
in full swing, with the houses in May
fair being ablaze every night, the
blinds up and the windows open to
cool the overheated rooms in which
men and women could be seen dan
cling in closely packed crowds.
One night, after Alma and my hus-
band had gone to reception in
Grosvenor Square, I had a sudden at
tack Of heart strain and had to be
put to bed, whereupon Price, who had
realized that | was really i'll, told
Hobson, my husbands valet, to go
after his master and bring him back
Immediately
It'll be all as one but I'll go II
you like" said Hobson. In half an
hour he came back with my hus-
bands answer, Send for a doctor"
This put Price into a fever OF min
gled anger and perplexity, and not
knowing what else to do she tele-
graphed to Martin on his ship, telling
him that | was i'll and asking what
doctor she ought to call in TO see me.
Inside an hour reply came not from
Tilbury but from Portsmouth. say

AS a result Oh Tue lltiNC So N5bAN
between my heart and my soul my
health began to fail me. From neces-
sitv now and not from design ! had
ia keen nv room. but even there my
love for Martin was always hanging
like a threatening sword over my
head.
NV maid Price, was forever sing
ing his praises. He was so bright
so cheerful. so strong, so manly; In
fact, he was perfect, and any woman
in the world might be forgiven II
she fell in love with him.
Her words were like music in my
ears. and sometimes ! felt as il |
wanted to throw my arms about her
neck and kiss her, But at other mo-
ments I reproved her, telling here T.
was very wicked of her to think so
much of the creature instead of fix
ing her mind on the Creator--a piece
of counsel which made Price, who
was all woman, open her sparkling
blacks eyes in bewilderment.
Nearly every morning sire brought
me a bunch OF flowers. which Martin
had bought at Covent Garden, all
glitterinz from the sunshine and
damp with the dew. I loved to have
them near me, but, finding they
tempted me to think more tenderly
of him who sent them, | always con-
trived by one excuse or another to
send them into the sitting room hat
they might be out Of my signt at
all events
After a while Price, remembering
my former artifce, began to believe
that | was only pretending to be
i'll. in order to draw Martin on, and
then taking a certain liberty with
me. as with a child. she reproved me.

a honeyed fend sent by Satan to Sc

sometimes acted up to the character.
One day she said.

such liberties again. But I'm sure
she saw me, as she was going through
