So the days had gone by in one key, only varied for Nancy by two thingsâ€" lirst, the dismissal of Marie, which was an inexpressible com- fort; and, secondly, by the news of Sir Humphrey's accident and ill- ness, which was bitter pain. It she could have crept out at turned slowly back along the un- kept pathj and weed-grown walks to the Manor House. She had dried her tears, but her face was very white, even her lips were robbed of iheir pretty red hue, and her eyes were circled with deep , black marks.

But Dorothy was too happy in the consciousness that he was near her to remark all this, or to imagine for an instant that he had some sorrow so great as almost to crush him to the ground. For Derrick Da,/iley was suffer- ing far more now since he had met Nancy again, and dis<!Overed that he had .wronged her by his harsh thoughts, than he had ever done in the very first moment of his trou- ble. He was haunted by her sac- red, miserable face. He feared and dreaded he hardly knew what. Ac times the longing to rush over to the manor and bear her aw,ay from all her horrible surroundings, be- came almost unbearable.

But she never did this.

It is a fact that most people who have passed the age of child- ' ish sport stand in need of some form of definite exercise in order to keep their muscles froni settling being told to do so, because it is their nature to play, and play is the very best form of exercise, especi- ally if it takes place outdoors. But most of those who have passed from childhood do not keep supple and limber with play, and therefore it follows that they must, or should, do it with work. There are certain special exercis- es that are not attended to nearly enough. Thej' are the movements of the neck and throat which con- trol the head movements. Anv one both inexpensive and handy.

Sooner than let this man touch her lips â€" the lips which Derry had kissed â€" she would have fallen dead at his feet. And Crawshaw knew this was no melodnuu-itic, empty threat. There was an intensity, a quiet {xission about the girl as she uttered it which told him she meant every word. When he had realized this he had vowed to himself that, come what may, he would yet break her stubborn will, her disgust and hat- red of himself, and bring her hum- bled at last to the dust at his feet. Only one gleam of pleasure came to Nancy out of all this grim dark- nessâ€"the thought that her uncle was safe and happy. A'es, actually happy at last, for Dr. Grantley had written, telling her that he had heard from Henry Chaplin, giving news of himself and his wife. The latter was returning to England at once, but Nancy's uncle had made friends with some scientific and lit- erary men, who found his brain and information so useful that they had offered him the po.-;t of scoro- tary to some society in Melbourne, which not only gave him a salary, but tent him in.to the seventh heav- en of delight. This letter had reached Nancy the very morning on which Derrick Darnley had started off for his walk with the dogs; and having escaped Fentou's lynx eyes, she loade her way to a quiet nook in the lonely woids to read it over and indulge in almost the first faint gladness she had felt for months. "Poor uncleâ€" dear uncle!" ehe said to herself, with tears in her blue eyes. "I have saved him and made him happy. Does he ever thiuk of me, I wonder! Does he ever realize what 1 have done t But I won't let myself doubt him. He loves me â€" he will never forget me!" But all the same the poor girl's aching hoart longed for some warm word of love and greeting from the man who had indirectly been the CRuse o-f all her trouble. She had folded the letter up and put it aw.xv In her pocket, and then had sat with bent head thinking, wondering in the old, sad fashion till the dogs had rushed upon her, and with a great start and a mingled sense of fear, ecstatic delight and deep sor- row, she had raised her eyes and seen Derrick standing before her.
