il front of him.
Wensleydown no doubt, would be a
great, sensual goat. and Morella vicious
mule. And the idea made him laugh as
he turned to Theodore again to feast his
eyes on her pure loveliness.
The Crow, who had arrived late and
been among the last to enter the drawing
room before dinner had not yet had an op-
portunity of speaking to Mrs. Brown, as
he had been dragged off among the first
of the bridge-players.
Presently Mildred looked through the
door from the room beyond and called,
Freddy and Morella, come and play; we
must have two more to make up the num-
bers. Uncle Patrick will bring Lord Bra
cOndale presently"
Josiah and Theodore did not count at
all. ii seemed,
What intolerable insolence!" said Hec-
tor. through his teeth. 81 shall not play
bridge or stir from here"
And Lord WensleydOwn called back, do
give one a moment to digest ones dinner,
dear Lady Mildred. Miss Winmarleigh
does not want to come yet. either. We are
very-interested-and happy here"
Morella Uttered and played with her fan.
The dull, slow rage was simmering within
her. Even her vanity could not misn-
terpret the meaning of Hector's devotion
to Mrs. Brown. He was deeply in love, OF
course, and she, Morella, was robbed Of
her hopes of being Lady Bracondale. Her
usually phlegmatic nature was reused in
all its narrow strength. She was like some
yengeful beast waiting a chance to spring

And so the evening wore away. Sir
Patrick drew Josiah into the bridegroom
and made him Join one of the tables where
they were waiting for a fourth-Josiah,
who was a very bad player, and did not
really care for. cards! But luck favored
him, and the woman opposite restrained
the irritable things she had ready to say
to him when she first perceived how he
played his hand.
And all the while Hector sat by Theo-
dora, and learned more and more of her
fair clear mind. All the thoughts she had
upon every subject he found were Just and
quaint and in some way Illuminating. II
was her natural sweetness of nature which
Mrs. Mcbride had remarked upon. and
which every one felt sooner or later.
Nothing OF the ascetlc saint or goody
poseuse. She did not walk about with a
book of poems under her arm, and wear
fioppy clothes and talk about her own and
other peoples souls. She was just human
and true and attractive.
Theodore had. perhaps. no religion at all
from the orthodox point of view; but had
she been a Mohommedan or a Confucian
or a Buddhist, she would still have been
Theodore, full of gentleness and goodness
and grace.
The entire absence of vanity and self
consciousness in her prevented her from
feeling hurt or ruffled even with these ILL
hammered women. She thought them rude
and unpleasant but they could not really
hurt her except by humiliating Josiah.
Her generosity instantly fired at that
Both she and Hector perceived that
Morella and Lord Wensleydown sat there
watching them for no other reason but
to disconcert and tease them, and it reused
a spirit Of resistance in both. While this
was going On they would not move. And
Hector employed the whole Of his self
control to keep himself from making actual
love to her, and they talked of many things
and she understood and was grateful
Presently, apparently. Morella could
stand 1t no longer, for she rose abruptly
and said to Lord Wensleydown:
Come, let US play bridge"
They went on into the other room, and
Theodore and Lord Bracondale were left
quite alone.

she crossed over to
