49, Lib STEAMED LETTER---By Byron An6lesev

II can hardly believe It even now"
said Basil Ashleigh. gazing into the
eyes Of the girl whose hands he
held.
Elsa Norrys smiled, and there was
q wonderlight in her eyes. Her
cheeks were rosy. but beneath the
intent gaze OF her lover their color
deepened.
They had been engaged less than
half an hour. and in that time the
world had been changed for them.
1t was now a paradise OF sheer do

"But you wouldn't do anything dis.

II you did / should not cease to-

you wouldn't marry me-" he
prompted.
81 couldn't" she murmured.
Basil Ashleigh laughed.
II must take care TO keep my
dreadful deeds from you until we
ara married." he said lightly.
But Elsa's face Was grave--she
held very strong views on honor,
and would have suffered any pain,
made any sacrifice, rather than do
anything dishonorable.

ing rapidly. 30 that Mr.. and Mrs.
Norrys were we'll pleased to give
their consent. aaHEM
At about five o'clock Basil entered
his rooms and sat down to read
some letters. Presently there came
rap at the Goor and the voice Of
Horace FELTON,, an artist, who had
chambers in the same building, was
heard asking II he could come In.
Basil was not very intimate with
FELTON,; in fact, he did not care
much for the man, but just now he
was at peace with all the world.
Come I'M" he cried.
FELTON, marched in and took q
chair, whereupon Basil went to the
sideboard and asked him to give
1t a name.''
I'm the luckiest chap on earth,
Felton," he said, as he filled two
glasses.
Then he told his companion that
he was engaged to Elsa Norrys.
Felton's face wore miserable ex-
preston.
Some people seem to have all the
luck" he said, after he had duly con.
graduated Basil. IT can't afford to
get married; I can't even sell my
pictures. Cohen sent back my last
two after he had practically com.

1t came into Felton's mind at that

IN O you wish to obtain pink snow drops
/ and blue tulips? A gardener in Hol-
land, who many years ago produced a
blue tulip, was offered the fabulous sum of
eleven thousand francs for It. He refused
the offer. thinking TO make much more bv

succeeded In obtaining his first blue tulip
bulb. Alas! When that particular tulip

us It's 1t about Basil7" Elsa
asked In low tones.
Mrs. Norrys nodded.
Elsa held her breath for a mo-
ment. and her bosom heaved. Then
she said. quietly:
Tell me. mother"
Mrs. Norrys handed her the letter,
and her eyes fled with tears as she
watched Elsa's face swiftly grow
white as she read the written words.
"oh. BASIL" was all the girl eaid
as she laid the letter down.
MY poor grill" exclaimed Mrs.
Norrys, taking her in her arms.
In a mechanical manner Elsa sub.
mitted to the caress. She was hard
ly aware Of It; her mind was dulled
with the shock.
What are VIC to do?" said Mrs.
Norrys, releasing Elsa
The girl picked up the letter and
thrust 1t into her blouse.
II must think, must think" she
murmured, DULY. Then, in swift
tones. she added: do not tell any
one. mother: let me think It over"
She turned to walk away, but In.
stantly her mother was by her side.
Let me be with you, dear" she
said.
mo. I want to be alone; am go.
Ing to my ROOM" answered Elsa.
She stumbled rather than walked
to her room. Then she locked the
door. sank into an easy chair and re.
read the letter.
"Oh, Basil" she repeated.
In moment her idol had become
common clay, and even her great
love could not forgive the wrong.
Suddenly the idea Of calling on
Dorothy suggested itself to her. She
knew where hyperion avenue WAS:
she could reach II in less than an
hour. The more she pondered over
this idea the more 1t seemed the
best thing to do. an eventually she
decided on 1t. 1t was too late that
evening to go. but she would call as
early as possible on tho following
morning.
She did not leave her room a; Gin
that night. but undressed and went
to bed. But she could not sleep
the words Of the letter kept con.
stantly recurring to her. She con.
unually wondered what this other
girl was like-this girl Basil had
loved, kissed. promised to marry and
actually taken a fiat for.
She fell asleep at length, offended
nature conquering her grief, but
when she awoke in the morning her
pain. II anything, was worse.
She managed to avoid meeting her
father. but there was no avoiding
Mrs. Norrys. who was all questions
and sympathy. She was averse to
Elsas plan Of action, but her daugh-
ter insisted on calling on Dorothy.
"She is suffering. too, mother" she
said.
After q pretence at breakfast she
made her way TO No. 236 hyperion
avenue and knocked at the door.

Basil. for you were all the world TO
INC.
II have always feared something
like this since you first told me you
loved me. but when you took these
rooms for me tried to put my fears
on one side. But I was afraid. be-
cause you are gentleman and am
only a dressmaker struggling for a
living.
IF you have ceased to love me
Basil. do not be afraid to tell me. but
II you have not come quickly to

Mrs. Hicks.
He's going the way OF the ma
tority. Mrs. Hicks" he said. Hes
going to be married"
"I-or' you don't say 20, slr!" ex-
claimed Mrs. Hicks. And to herself
she said: Now l wonder II It's to
that gal?"
Yes. he's engaged to Miss ELSA
Norrys," remarked FELTON,.
Mrs. Hicks went slowly down.
stairs. her mind busily engaged on
this piece OF information. She
thought she saw some p,ckings for
her out OF It. for Basil would posi-.
bly, be inclined to buy her silence
When he discovered that she knew
about Dorothy. She resolved to 20
TO hyperion avenue before the week
was out and find out all she could
about the dressmaker at No. 23s.
We are taking house on Long
Island for a month, BASIL" said Mr.
Norrys at dinner. DO You think
you could come and stay with us?"
She knew that Basil could not
have a relative living at such a poor
address. and the knowledge, coupled
with what she read, caused her to
start
Her better feelings prompted her
TO push the letter back into the en-
gelope and send 1t on to Basil. But
then she thought of her daughters
welfare. and she felt that IL there
was a woman-for she could see that
1t was woman's handwriting-who
addressed Basil as my darling"
Elsa ought to know about It.
Only for a moment did she hest.
tate, and then her maternal feelings
conquered, and she pulled the letter
out and read 1t.
To say that she was shocked would
be poor description OF her condi-
fion-she was absolutely thun Ter.
struck.
Good gracious" she exclaimed.
And he is to marry Elsa!"
She was still gazing at the letter
in alarmed amazement when Elsa,
her face rosy and smiling, entered
the room. AT the sight Of her m eth.
ers face, however. the smile faded
away and an anxious expression
took their place.
"Mother!" she exclaimed. "what
has happened?"
"My DEAR" said Mrs. Norrys. "oh.
my dear!"
Elsa came swiftly to her side. a
sudden fear tugging at her heart.

look in his eyes.

manded Basil at length.
Elsa suddenly broke from him and
ran to the door and put her back to

Ashleigh to dress, and he went into
