A deep blush spread over the features of Lucrece at these words, as she walked across the room to Valerie's side. Her smiie was one of consolation and welcome as she stoopeel and k issed the other woman lightly. " Welcome !" she said. "'Ve see both friends and foes here, and it is hard sometimes to tell the grain from the chaff. You are henceforward the friend of Lucrece too. " "Your kindness almost hurt me," Valerie replied in some agitation. "I have ~o few friends, than a word of sympathy is strange to me. Whatever you may want or desire, either of yon, command me, and Valerie le Gautier will not say you nay." "Lucrece, listen to me," said Isodore in a voice of stern command. "To-morrow, we cross to London, and the time has come when you must be prepared to assist in the cause.-See what I have here!" Without another word, she placed the gold moidore in her sister's hand. Lucrece regarded it with a. pU7.zled air. To her simple mind, it merely represented the badge of the .Brotherhood. "You do not understand," Isodore continned, noticing the look of bewilderment. "That coin, as you know, is the token of the. Or~er, and to part with it knowingly is serious · - "Yes," Lucrece interrupted; "the penalty is death. " "You are right, my sister. That is Le Gautier's token. He staked it yonder at Kursaal, giving it to his own wife, though he did not know, to put upon the colour . The coin is in my hands, as yon see. Strange, how man becomes fort~ne's fool!". "Then your revenge is complete,,, Lucrece suggested simply. "Yon have only to hand it over to the Council of '.l'hree, or even the Cr!:nson Nine, and in o?-e ~our"-A dagger thrust will nd the world of a scoundrel. -Pa~ I you ~o not seem to understand such f.eelmg as mm~.

I I I B R Im: AC 0 B I I " No wonder your countrymen fail, with such chicken-hearts among them," Isodore observed scornfully. " I do not want to do you anv harm; quite the contrary. '.l'here is an advertisement in to -day's T imes. Yolll' mistress is in search of a maid. Is that so"!" Timothy Varley began to breathe a little more freely. "Yes," he answered glibly; " she does want a. maid. She must be honest; sober and industrious; ready to sit up all night if necessary, and have a good temper- not th11t Miss Enid will try any one's temper much. The last girl was discharged"-" Now, Mr. Varley, I know a girl who must fill that vacancy. I de not wish to threaten you or hold any rod of terror over your head ; but I shall depend upon you to pro. ure it for my protegee." The conversation apparently was not going t,o be so pleasant. Timothy Varlcy'e mind turned feebly in the direction of diamond robberies. "Well, miss--that is, my lady-if I may make so bold as to ask you a question : why, if the matter is so simple, don't you write to my young mistress and settle the matter that way?" " Impossible," Isadore replied, " for reasons I cannot enter into with yon. You must do what I ask, and tha t speedily. -You have a certain Monsieur le Gautier at your house often 1" This question was so abruptly o.sked, that Varl ey could not r epress a start. "We have," he growled-" a good deal too often, to please me. My master dare not call his body his own since he first began to come to the house with his signs and manifestations. -Y ou sec," he explained, " servants are bou11d to hear these things." "At keyholes and such places," Isadore smiled. " Yes, I understand such things do happen occasionally. So this Le Gautier is a spiritualist, is he ; and Sir Geoffrey is his convert ?" "Indeed, you may say that," Varley burst out in tones of great grievance. "The baronet sees visions and all sorts of things." "Is it possible," Valerie whispered to her friend, " that Hector has really succeeded in gaining an inll.uence over this Sir Geoffrey by those miserable tricks he played so successfully at R ome ?" " It is very probable," Isadore murmured in reply. " This Sir Geoffrey is very weak in intellect.- Tell me, Mr. Varley," she continued, turning in his direction, "does the baronet keep much of Monsieur le Gautier's company? Does he visit at his rooms?" " I believe he does ; anyway, he goes out ~t nights, and always come~ back looking as if he had seen a ghost. Whatever his game may be-and sure enough there is some game on-it's killing him bv inches, that's what it's doing." · " And this change you put down to Le Gautierr Perhaps you are right. And now another question. Is not there another reason, another attraction besides discussing spiritualism with Sir Geoffrey, that takes him to Grosvenor Square ?" Varley so far forgot himself a.s to wink impressively. " You mighi; have made a worse guess than that," he said. " I am'not the onl:l'. one ~h_o can 6ee what his designs are. Miss Emd is t he great attraction." "And she?" " Hates him, if looks count for anything, - And so do I," he continued ; " and so do all of us, for the matter of that. I would give a year's salary to see his back turned for good!" " "Mr. Varley," Isodore said in grave tones, I sent for you here to work upon your fears, and to compel you, if necessary to do my bidding. 'l'hat, I oee, is not nec~ssary, for we have a common bond of sympathy. ]'or reasons I need not state here, we have good reasons for keeping a watch over this J_,e Gautier ; but r est a~sured of one t hingthat he will never wed your mistress. I shall hold _YOU to secrecy.- And now, you must promise to get my protegee this situation." "\Vell, [will do my best," Varley replied cheerfully. " Bnt how is it going to be done, I i·eally can 't see." " Irishmen a.re proverbial for their inventive powers, a.ud doubtless you will discover a way. - 'l'he new maid is a Fren"h ~irl, remember, the daughter of an old triend. Perhaps you would like to see her?" With a gestme she indicated Lucrece, who ca.me forward, turning to the hishman with one of her most dazzling smiles. The feeling of bewilderment came on again. " She !" he cried ; "that beautiful young lady a servant ?" "When she is plainly dressed, as suitable to her lower station, she will appear different." " Ah, you may pull the leaves from t he flowers, but the beauty r em ains to them still," Varley replied, waxing pcetical. "However, if it must be, it mu$t; so I will do my best.' Varley's diplomacy proved successful, for, a week later, Lucrece was inst alled at Grosvenor Square.
