Twice has she knOcked and received no answer, But now, as she speaks. there is only a. moment's pause and the door is thrown open. The room is perfectly dark. and there is the unmis- takable smell of suddenly extinguished oil. , "I beg your pardon. your ladyship. 1 did not, know it was you." "Are you ill or hurt i’ " she questions. curiously, trying to peer through the. gloom. and if possible to see his face.

He hesitates. How can he tell her all? And yet further concealment is impossible. In the confusion of the fire he has lost both wig and glasses. and is at last himself confessed. He had hoped that perhaps he might sucâ€". need in finding them again at. night. when he could steal out and look for them without the fear of meeting any one, but Itollo‘s illness has made this out of the question now. he feels he cannot longer refuse to go. The child at least shall not stiffer from his load folly. But what shall he reply? Lady Leigh settles it for the pres- ent. "Come to Rollo first," she says, im- patiently ; "afterward I shall expect to hcar your explanation." "And I shall expect a patient hear- ing." he answers, with a: touch of grave pride. "l think that at; least is any due; it is the due of those who have committed the gravest faultsâ€"and mine is not the. ." She bows her head and turning. goes up stairs. he following meekly until they reach the nursery. Then she goes in and. standing under the full glare of the chandelier, beckons-him to come in, and he, obeys. At last they stand face to face, and though still ignorant of the motive. she guesses what his offense has been. Her . first. thought now is for her childâ€"that his already overstrained nerves should not be further taxed by the discovery that has so bewildered her. Quick as thought. she reaches up and put out the lights. ' "Rollo, he is here. Try to go to. slecp now as you promised." she whisp- crs. leaning over the boy's bed. The child stretches out his hands with a glad cry as Colonel Dare comes up. and then sinks back cxhausted, with closed cycs, only now and then Niniling contentedly as the quandam tutor sooths and comforts him, hold- ing his hand in a firm yet gentle clasp the while. - .By and by Rollo falls asleep. and Col- oncl Dare, quietly releasing himself, goes down again to where he guesses Lady l.eigh is waiting. She is seated in a huge armchair close to the table, on which she is drumming impatiently with her fingers. Her face flushes a little as Colonel Dare enters.

The words in their icy coldness kill all hope, and, without an effort to de- tain her, he lets her go. 'J‘hen, di- rectly he is alone, he sinks back in his chair, utterly despairing.

Surely he must have in wardly termed her a monster, callous lto her son’s danger, and too heartless to care. about, his safety. Instead of ,loading him with abuse. as she had idone, she ought to have faler at his feet and almost worshiped him as her .child’s prescrver. 5 And. now it .is she who will have to lplead for pardon and perhaps he will 3be as hard and as unforgiving as she gwas before. Her cheeks are dyed crim- ison as she remembers all the cruel. insolcnt' things she said, and how meek- ly he bore them, never reminding her .1 of the obligation she was under to him. .She must: go to him at once and apolo- gize. and. if he. goes-as she. supposes {peace between them. i “I have never thanked him myself :yet, Rollo,” she says humbly. “I must {go and find him now.” . l Catching up her dress, she riscs from ! her seat and runs down stairs.

Oh! how :she despises herself when she remem- -bers what she said to him! How she 'wishes she had bitten out her tongue 'rather than allowed it to utter such heartless, meaningless words I, For now, with asudden revulsion of feeling, she decides that he has not deserved the ;Ieast of them.

Since his advent Rollo has become ‘30 much stronger, and yet more. obed- lient and gentle in his manna-rs; the ,dreary old house, too, has been perâ€" .ceptibly brightened, and even Tabitha ihas softened toward the new inmate. iNow the old routine will recommcnc .. and there will be no break in it; she realizes at. once how much they will miss him.

Indeed. unless he loves her so well that in spite of all she has said, he is constrained to see her again. how can theyever hope. to meet? Her own life is so isolated, and where he is she does not. know. Then a thought comes into Lady Leigh's head which she resolves to put; into execution. She will live in this seclusion no longer .She will go out into the world and into society. and if she cannot find him. at least it. will help her to forget. The idea gives a new incentive to lifeuand her step is as buoyant as it was ycars ago, before trouble came, when she returns to the house. .'l‘abil ha is dusting the ornaments in her room when she goes in, and makes a. movement to go, but Lady Leigh stops her.
