And so, the mare safe-hitched, and
her hat found after no great search,
since my lady knew exactly where to
look for 1t, Sir Richard brought her
into what had once been a fair garden
but now place Of weedy desolation.
"Oh, wilderness!" exclaimed Helen.

Sir Richard bowed.
And tricked you because, since
you are too infinite proud to visit us,
I became so infinite humble as to seek
you thus. And, wherefore, do you sup

Sir Richard shook his head.
Because I, Helen Darcy, having
misjudged one Sir Richard Guyfford

Stood-all unwilling of other eyes that
watched them so keenly fierce, and ears
that hearkened so avidly.
So Sir Richard lifted her hand, kissed

despite her so agoniZed appeal, his eyes
twinkled, his firm lips curved to sudden

bride.
A sudden wrench :. the mare was

supple body lay very soft in his en-

Thus stood he gazing down into the
face pillowed on his shoulder, studying
1t feature by feature-the wide, low
sweep of brow, the sensitive nostrils, the
vivid mouth-to be sure, her deep bosom

So Sir Richard bowed his head and
kissed her, and he did 1t with sin
gular elaboration; he kissed her hair,
one eye, and her mouth and, finding
her yet a-swoon, he kissed her mouth,
one eye, and her hair and, indeed, was
in the act of doing this for the third
time when she looked at him and
froWned.
She: Where am ~ Sir, I believe you
kissed me.
He: I'm sure Of 1t.
She: Sir, twas wholly detestable act
He: Mann, twas the blissful aber-
ration of happy moment.
She: And I a-Swoonl Oh, shame

He: But a-swoon so gracefully apt!
Here my lady had the grace to change
color.
She: Have you no better excuse
to urge?
He: only the best of all-yourself.
She: How, sir, how? Dye take me
for one to be lightly kissed-a thing
so shameless, a creature so light? Sci
me down this very moment!
So, with the EXTREMIST Of precau'

and stood back while she ordered hel

My lady frowned and began to put
up her shimmering tresses. the while

CHAPTER NJ.
A FEMININE RUSE.

"a FANWHIIE Helen. standing be-
n fore the largest mirror In her
/" bedchamber. stared at the re-
Election of her loneliness with
troubled eyes, veXed, SURPRISED
wondering: go -.o,,o.
could it indeed be true? Prepos-
terous' ~,
But why must she remember the
loose button on his cuff; the Sudoen
wav he had of lifting his chin and look
ing at her as if about to ask some ques-
tion that never came; the quick V1ltallty
of his brown eyes; the small scar tnaC
made dimple beside his mouth; his
odd trick of whistling softly between
his tceth-why?"
NV lady turned her back on the mir
NOR and, leaning forth Of the open lat
tice, gazed dreamily round about the
pleasant countryside. And when she
had viewed this tempting prospect
while and sighed over 1t, she rang 1or
her maid.
And after some while my lady de-
scended the stair, the folds of her riding
habit over her arm and so to the sta
bles, there to wait impatiently what
time old Ben and one of the grooms
saddled The Witch, her powerful, CLOS
sy-coated mare. Then, slim, booted foot
in old Bens hand. up she Sprang to the
saddle, gathered the reinS, settled her
self lightly. The Witch reared grace
fully and was out and away through the
grassy paddock.
But scarcely were they beyond the
village than was a clatter Of pursuing
hoofs, and my lady found Capt. DeSpard
beside her. Helen frowned, the captain
bowed.
Helen ;" said he gently, Helen,
I love thee!"
and so It's wish you good-by. sir!"
Capt. Despard smiled. And yet.
Helen, dare venture to think you will
be my wife sooner or later"
My lady merely glanced at him and
wheeled her mare, but out shot the
captins long arm and he grasped her
rein; then down WhizZed by lady's rid
ing switch and Capt. Despard, losing the
rein. glanced from the red welt on his
wrist to where my lady galloped her
mare SO yards away.
And the captain smiled still, but his
horse leapt in pursuit. But spur how he
would, my lady's fleet mare increased
her lead until the captain was left far
behind; and yet Capt. Despard, being
the man he was. still smiled and still
spurred in determined chase
Helen leapt her mare through the
gap in ruined park wall and cantered
lightly over undulating greensWard I'M
til she espied a man busily engaged with
a pair OF shears trimming a woefully
shaggy hedge; but even at this distance
she knew him, wherefore my lady
checked her steed and. tossing off her
plumed hat she shook down her abund-
ant hair and spurred The Witch sharply,
which reared, plunged and set of in sud-
den, wild career.
Thus Sir Richard heard a sudden cry.
