The doctor's verdict was that she was in e danger, but would recover if carefiilly tended and kept 'in absolute quiet. "ls Constance with her?" Pyne. "Yes." "And where is Mr. Brand?" "He will be here soon. He asked me to call--and tell yon--and Mr. Traill-- what had happened." Fnid's speech was trip. Pyne's eyes gleamed into hers, "Mf. Brand ask you to see my uncle?' he said cautiously. "Yes," she faltered. "Did he say anything else?" "Yes--cousin." "Let me take you right in. I guess it would make a sensation if I---here, Mamie, just hug Miss Enid good and hard for me, will you?"

In the fickle mem: ory of the outer world the story of he Gulf Rock lighthouse was 'becoming mellow with age. Men now talked of war in Africa, of the Yellow Peril, of some baccarat squabble in a Wests d club. But its vitality lingered in Ren: zance. There were side issues which Pyne's device bad kept from the pub lic ken, but which the town's folk pon- dered Lady Margaret Stanhope, obeying her son's behests, tantalized her friends by smiling serenely and elling them nothing when they pes ered her with questions. That is to tar, she spoke not one word about the lady who was being nursed back to wealth in the lighthouse-keepercgy. cot: age, but filled their souls with "vitter 188 when she hinted at marvels con: erning Constance and Enid. In such a small. place, where avery nan"s affairs are canvassed by his weighbors, it. was impossible to pre vent an atmosphere of mystery from linging to Mrs. Vansittart. Again, he gomsips were greatly concerned about Enid. For gevoung woman "in ier position" to be engaged to an offi er in the Royal Navy and admitted 0 the sacred ranks of the aristocracy was a wonderful thing in itself. But hat she ston} d he on open terms of he gy prt intintacy not alone with My.

That was, the worst of it. nid was 'escorted about the town by rach and all of the men at all hours. Now she was al the hospital, cheering Bates and Jackson or the injured peo- ple from the wreck, now arranging for the departure of some of the poorer survivors when they were able to travel, now flitting over to Marazion io see Jim Spence, and once actually visiting Mr. Jones, the inn-keeper. At last a part of the secret eked out. nid went with her father to ask how Mr. Emmett, the sick chief officer, was geiting on. They found him smok- ing in the front garden of the house in se elderly and [which Brand had lodged him. He started when he saw them ap proaching, and. his weather-beaten face wore the puzzled look with which he regarded Enid one night on the lighthouse stairs. Trail noticed the sailor's covert 'glances at Hnid, so he 'said: "By the way. Mr. Emmett. you were on the Britannia when my wife and I, hey eister, and two children, came (0 Engiand before the ®Rgmeralda was lost?" "Yes, sir." He paused. During many an Atlantic crossing he and Mr. Traill had talked of that last joyous journey. when he, & boy who had just joined the service, sat at their able, as was the custom of junior officars in those years. Mr. Traill smiled. He knew what was in the other man's mind "Do you see a likeneps in this young 'ady to anyone you have ever known?' he asked.

Then she guessed her nieces had got a bit out of hand.™ "Have you seen the poor fellow whose arm was broken? Enid has not had a moment to give me details of events since we landed." From that point their conversation dealt with generalities. Boon the girl perceived his Intent. His sole desire Was to place her at her ease, to make her realize that no mafter what trou bles life held they could be vanquished with a smile. She responded to his mood, and enlivened the drive with comments on the people they met and the houses and villages they passed. For two hours the world went well because it was forgotten. Enid, the conspirator, waited until the pair in the dog-cart were out of sight. Then she went to the little room at the back of the cottage where Brand pretended to be busily engaged in compiling a scientific account of his auriscope. "1 am going out, dad," she sald, try ing to appear unconcerned, "All right," he answered, down his pipe. "l only came to tell you because Mrs. Sheppard is out, too." Obviously Enid was determined that if Pyne's calculations were worth any thing they should have fair play. "Oh," he commented sharply, "but the maid is in?" "Yes. She is such a stupid gir] in some things. If--if our guest ringe you will hear her. Would yoli mind asking Mary what it is in case she gets muddled?" He glanced at her. She was pulling on her gloves. and vastly bothered by & refractory button. "If I hear the bell, 1 will inquire,' he said, and she escaped, feeling quite wicked. When he was alone, he did not ve: sume his task. In the next room, sepa- rated from him enly by a brick wall 'vas his wife. A wall! Why should there always be a wall between them? Jt was not of his building. Had she made it impassable during the long years? And what would be the out come, now that Constance was in daily communion with her mother? The doclor, in kindly ignorance, had fold him that Mrs. Vansittart was 'onvalescent and would be able to travel in a few days. In response to question, the doctor added that the ady herself asked when she might be 1| moved. What was her plan? Mr. Traill inat dav, had wriften him a sympathe: tic letter, mentioning the fact that rs. Vansittart had voluntarily res vinded her promise to margy him, and, ndeed, judged by the light of present nowledge, had determined on tha! course since she first knew that her former husband was living. Suddenly Brand pushed back his thair from the desk at which he sat. "The young dog!" he growled. He ad in fact followed the exact mental rocess which Pyne mapped out for im. The letter, the drive, Mrs. Shep- pard's absence, Enid's uneasy wrig- gling at the door, were all parts of an ordered plan. He was fo be given an opportunity of seeing his wife and dis- entangling the twisted strands of twenty years. He rose impatiently, hnd paced the room, quiet! withal, t|iest the woman in the mnékt room ghould hear him." A decision had been forced on him, He could shirk it no onger. "Pyne has contrived this," he mut- tered. "He thinks he can see more ¢learly into the future than a man twice his age. And Connie! No, not Connie. Dear 1{ heart! She is worn with anxiety, yet she never once mentioned her mother fo me since she carried her into the house like an alling child." Back and forth he walked, wrest ling with the problem. See his wife he must, and before she guitted Corn- wall. Was it advisable, in her pte- sent siate of health, to take her by surprise? Pyne evidently thought so. And the doctor! Good Heavens! was the doctor in the thing, too? At last, he tugged at the bell. "Mdry," he said, "ask Mrs. Vansit- tart if she feels able Brand." There; it was done. Mary, rose-choeked and soft of speech, dreading only Mrs. Sheppard's matronly eye, knocked at the door of the sitting-room. He heard her deliver his message. There was no audible answer.
