fuence" with the heiress Of the
brewery.
The young cabinet-maker, for his
part, found the long-nissing valua-
bles and freed the old clerk from
tle suspicious he had labored under
for thirty years. At the same time,
Harry discovered proof that he him
self was a fairly weIl-to-do person
He laid his heart and fortune at
the feet of the dressp1aker. The
day for the wedding was set.
An this time be it remembered, the
young man had no inkling of the
girls identity; nor did he know that
his imaginary Palace of Delight was
actually taking form in brick and
stone. The girl. however. lad long
sirCe discovered the secret Of Harry 5
life
Harry saw his Palace of Delight
only when all was completed. 1t con-
tanned a great hall, where a thous-
and couples could dance without
crowding. On wet days II was TO
be a playground for children. There
was a concert room. with organ and
piano and n platform; billiard rooms.
card rooms, rooms with chess and
domtnoes laid out, school rooms for
painting, drawing, wood-carving and
all manner of small arts.
TN the Palace of Delight" said
Angela. we shall not be like a troop
of jewellers. thinking Of nothing but
dance and song and feasting. We
shall learn something every day: we
shall all belong to the same class.
This is our own palace, the club OF
the WORKING people: we will not let
anybody make money out Of It We
shall use ii for ourselves, and We
shall make our enjoyment by our
selves.
The first notes Of the great organ
of the Palace were the wedding
march Of the girl and the man The
first festivities within the walls at
tended their wedding feast.
And still the man whose imagina-
tion had given birth to these marvels
had never guessed that his bride was
anything hut what she seemed; and
, he rejoiced IN her possession.
The truth came to him only when.
in the evening, she came to him no
| longer clad as a simple dressmaker,
but radiant in white satin. mystic
wonderful, with white veil and white
flowers, and round her throat a neck
lace Of sparkling diamonds, and dia-
monds in her hair.
Take her, my boy" said Lord
Jocelyn proudly. But you have
married-not Miss Kennedy at all
but Angela Messenger"
Harry took his brides hand In a
kind Of stupor.
Forgive me, Harry" she said.
"say you forgive me"
Then he raised her vefl and kissed
her forehead before them all. But
he could not speak. because all in a
moment the sense of what this would
mean poured upon his brain in a great
wave and he would fain have been
alone.
