She 11d never imagined. much less heard. anything: like it; and her hero became al- most a divinity to her. Her eyes were chained to his face. which seemed to daz- zle. hers; she watched his lips as if to un- tici ate the words that passed them. HOW Wit the force of a. tremendous torrent. now with the soft music of a' brook. She was in a kind of dream. held in thrall by a. spell which she wished might. last for ever: not once while he was speaking did she remove her gaze from his face. Vat. notwithstanding. she could see the rapt faces of those around her. could watch their flaming eyes. was conscious of their parted lips. through which their breath came jerkily. No wonder they were awed, that they gazed at him openâ€"eyed, open-mouthed. How they. too. must admire and worship him, the grand gentleman who was tight” ing their battles for them, who was Enprl- ilcing himself for their good, pleading. struggling for them as if he were one of l themselves. The speech was drawing to a closeâ€"she felt that. with a pangâ€"and her eyes wan- dered towards the door for an instant: she would steal away before the crowd be- an to leave. But two men had come near or. and stood close by her side. and he- flween her and the door. One was .3 thick-set. extremely ugly man with a big round head covered by short. bristling hair; his chin was stubby. and his shirt band failed to hide a dingy collar and. a. still more dingy shirt front. He wore thick spectacles, through which his mean, rest- less eyes flashed in' a furtive fashion. 110 had the unwashed a pearance of the low- class foreigner. and e spoke to the other manâ€"a.younger man with a weak face and receding chin. to which was called _b awivid scarlet tie-â€"in broken Englis With a strong accent. partly German and partly Polish. ‘ “Veil. my y. vhiit you tink of It; heln?" he as ed with a. covert sneer.

He shrugged his shoulders and smiled a. particularly unpleasant smile which revealed his yellow fangs for a moment: 'then. with it manner as furtive as his glance. insiiiuated himself through the crowd to where a small knot. of men. seine as foreign and disreputable-looking as himself. were standing at the other end of the room. Mina had heard every wo_rd. and at every word her heart beat With apprehen- sion: for lmd he not been threatening Mr. Clive? She watched the man. as ho whispered to the group he had Joined. with a mixture of loathing and indigna- flea. and vague terror; then she smiled with scorn o her fear; as if that dirty foreigner oould‘liariu licr hero. With a. perorution that roused the au- dience to a frenzy of enthusiasm. Clive arrived at the finish: a shower of ap- plause and. cheering burst on his last words.

Olive had stepped down from the platform, and was talk- ing to some of the men. She saw that lie was palewit seemed to her that he looked tiredâ€"and once she noticed that his eyes wandered from the face of the man who was speaking to him and looked round absontly. She trem- bled as they came her way. but he did not, see her; and presently she moved towards the doors, but there was still a crush there, and she was compelled to wait. It was as she was standing there that Clive saw her. He started. ssid quickly to the men around him, “Excuse me!“ and hur- ried to her side. She heard him speak her name in a low voice; a thrill ran through her, and she turned her head slowly and caught her breath. He drew her arm within his, the crowd made way for them, cheering and wavmg their hate as he and Mina )assed through. and with her arm still in his, they gained the street. He did not speak until they had turned the corner into quietude. then. smiling down at her, he said: V “Why. Miss Mina. how did you ha pen to lbe at the Hall tonight? And none, too " . She did not reply at once: the voice of the platform was still ringing in her ears: but this other voice. so low. so friendly. was a. different. a sweeter mu- sic. and she was loath to lose it. Besides, her heart was beating against lie arm so loudly thathshe could hardly speak. and when she did so the Words came flutter- iiigly. And over him ate 9 a sense of pence. wist-. ful, yet ful of subtle pleasure that was half pain; i. e feeling that might come to the man who has foundbn. rose rowing in the wilderness. a 1in y the usty way- side.

She laughed softly. “We are nearly. homeâ€"I mean at the Rents. It is round; the next turning. Won't you come in and. voice I if 'he as her see Elisha?" He hit his lip and hesitated: he could not tell her that he had promised 'l‘ibhy! not to come; then a genuine excuse came” to his aid. “I’m sorry," he said; "but I have to tit-I tend a committee meeting at the place we have just. left. I quite forgot itl I must hurry back. I will go with you us! far as the corner." “There is no need," she said. and iiowl the brightness had gone out of her voice, .THE BEST POLICY by apprehension, she went homewurds.

She; swiped aghast, and remembered that she llP. put them on the window lodge in the hull. near which she had been standing! Without her books she could not do her “preparation” for the next day‘s class.’ She thou ht for a moment in poignant distress. t en_she turned quickly and ran in the direction of the hall. She feared. that the place would be closed. but slie‘ found one of the doors open and entered.- "i‘lie hall itself was in darkness. but ii- light came from the transom over the door leading into a. small room, in which some persons were speaking; and, han guided by this light. and half feeling her way. she reached the spot where she had been standing. Hor- beloved books were still there, and. olasping them with a sense of relief and thanksgiving. she turned to go; but at that moment the door opened. and Clive: came out. Behind him, within the room. she saw several men. amongst them the unwashed foreign-er. Koshki.

But, with her mortal fear. there throb- bed in her heart Clive's deep clear voice. and the eloquent words which had moved the audience so wonderfully.
