she could have been more like herself or
Morella WinHarleigh!
Both women saw Hector in the omnibus
box, and saw him leave it, and we're quite
ready with their greetings when he Joined
them. Miss Winmarleigh had a slight air
of proprietorship about her, which every
one knew when Hector was there. And
most people thought as she did, that he
would certainly marry her in the near
future.
He was glad it was not between the acts
there was no excuse for conversation
after their greeting, so he searched the
house in peace with his glasses.
And although he was hoping to see Theo-
dora, his heart gave a great bound of sur
prised Joy when, on the pit tier, almost
next the box he had just left, he discovered
her. He supposed it was a box often let
TO strangers that season, as he could not
remember whose the name was as he had
passed. He got back into the shadow, that
his gaze should not be too remarkable.
She had not caught sight OF him yet or so
it seemed.
There she sat with her husband and an
other woman, whom he recognized as one
Of those kind creatures who go everywhere
in society and help strangers when suit
ably compensated for their trouble
Where on earth could she have come
across Mrs Devlyn? he wondered. A poi
sonous woman, who would fill her ears with
tales of all the world. Then he guessed,
and rightly, the introduction had been ef-
Iected by Captain Fitzgerald, who would
probably have known her in his own day.
Theodore appeared wrapped in the
music, and was an enthraIling picture Of
loneliness; her hneness seemed to make
all the women's faces who were near look
coarse. and her Wilderness turned them
into gypsies. She wore a gown of black

TO another at the same time? ID was i'm
possible-and yet-she would not look in
any case She would not once raise her
eyes that way.
And SO in these two boxes green jealousy
held sway, and while Hector glared across
at Theodore she smiled at DelaVal StirI
ing, and spoke softly Of the music and the
voices, though her heart was torn with
pain.
do you see Hector Bracondale is back
again. DelaVal?" Mrs. Devlyn said. DO
you know why he stayed in Paris 80 long?
I heard" And she whispered low, so
that Theodore only caught the name -Es-
clarmonde de Chartres" and their mOdu-
lated hooking laughter.
How they Jared upon her! How she
felt she should hate London among all
these people whose ways she did not know
She turned little, and Josiah's vulgar
familiar face seemed a relief TO her, and
her tender eyes melted in kindness as
she looked at him.
you are very pale tonight. my love-"
he said. Would you like to go homer"
But this she would not agree to. and
pulled herself together and tried to talk
gayIy when the curtain went down.
And Hector blamed his own folly for
having come up to this box at all. Here
he must be glued certainly for few mo
ments: now that they could talk, polite
ness could not permit him to fly off at
once.
THE house is very full" Miss Winmar-
leigh said--it was a remark she always
made on big nights-"and yet hardly any
new faces about.
YES" said Hector
Does II compare with the Opera House
in Paris. Hector?" Miss Winmarleigh
hardly ever went abroad.
No" said Hector Not only had Della.

having his court "Counfounded imperti-

think most things there are lovely. though.
Miss Winmarleigh raised her glasses
now and examined the house. Her eyes
lighted at last on Theodore.
Dear Lady Braeondale," she said, do
look at that woman in black velvet. What
splendid pearlsi Do you think they are
real? Who is IT, wonder, with Florence
DeVlyn?"
But Hector felt ne could not stay and
hear theiFITemarks about his darling, so
he got up, and. murmuring he must have
a talk to his friends in the house, left the
box. He was thankful at least Theodore
was sitting on the pit tieT-he could walk
along the gangway and talk to her from
the front She saw him coming and was
prepared, so no wild roses tinged her
cheeks, and her greeting was gravely
courteous, that was all.
An icy feeling crept over him. What
was the change, this subtle change in
voice and eyes? He suddenly had the
agonizing sensation Of being a great way

he done?
Every one knows the Opera House. and
where he would be standing. and the I'M
possibility of saying anything but the most
banal commonplace. looking up like that.
Then Josiah leaned forward, proud of
his acquaintanceship with a peer, and said
in a distinct voice:
Wont you come into the box. Lord
Bracondale? There is plenty Of room.
He had not taken to either Delaval Stirl-
ing or Chris Hartford. and thought change
Of company would not come amiss. They
had ignored him, and should pay for it.
Hector made his way jOyfully to the
back, and, entering. was greeted affably by
his host, so the other two men got up to
leave-to make room for him. He sat down
behind Theodore, and Mrs. Devlyn saw 1t
would be wiser to conciliate Josiah by her
interested conversation. She hoped to
make a good thing out OF this millionaire
and his unknown wife, and it would not do
to ruffle him at this stage Of the affair.
Theodore hardly turned, thus Hector was
obliged to lean quite forward to speak to
her.

said. ''and she wants so much to meet you:

Toasted his eyes upon her-eyes hungry
with a weeks abstinence; for he had felt
ii more prudent to remain in Paris for
some days after she had left.
He looked round the rest of the house
and understood all the other men could,
and probably would, gaze too. And then
he began to feel hot and Jealous! This
was different from Paris, where she was
more or less tourist; but here, how long
would she be left in peace without siege

an air Of dragging her thoughts from the

felt sick and cold.
"And are they to be married soon?"

''She looks pretty naughty" announced
Josiah Brown. q should not care TO tread

bered he had seen her years ago driving
through the little town of BracondaIe.
Theodore asked no more questions. She
kept her eyes fixed on the stage but she
knew Hector had raised his glasses now
and was scanning the box, and had prob
ably seen her.
What ought It to matter to her that he
should be going to marry Miss Winmar-
leigh? He could be nothing to her-only-
only-but perhaps It was not true. This
woman, Mrs. Devlyn, whom she began TO
feel she should dislike very much, had said
