Holcroft’s course continued to cause Alida a dissatisfaction which she could scarcely define. He was as kind as ever he had been and even more considerate; he not only gratified her wishes, but tried to an- acipate them, while J ane’s complete subser- ency proved that she had been spoken to very plainly: One day 'she missed her spelling lesson for the third time, and Alida told her that she must learn it thoroughly before going out. The child took the book reluctantly, yet without a word. “ That’s a good girl,” said Alida, wishing to encourage her. “ I was afraid at first you wouldn’t mind me so Wily- “He told me to; he'd like me out the window if I didn't mind you.” “ Oh, no, I think he’s very kind to you." “ Well, he’s kind to you, too.” “ Yes, he has always been kind to me," said Alida, gently and lin eringly, I8 if the thou ht were pleasant to well upon.

Neither had time to mope and their mutual duties were in a large measure a support and re iuge. Of these they could stil speak freely, for they pertained to business. Alida’s de- votion to her work was unfeigned, for it ‘ seemed now her only avenue of approach to her husband. She watched over the man broods of little chickens with tireless vig - lance.

Of course such mistaken effort only led to s more complete misunderstanding. It was a pit} that Alida could not have been among the hazel-nut bushes near and heard him. He resumed his toil, working late and dog- gedly. At supper he was very attentive to Alida, but taclturn and prooccu led; and when the meal was over he lighte his pi e and strolled out into the moonlight. 8 e longed to follow him yet felt it to be more impossible than if she were chained to the floor. Late in the afternoon, he leaned on the handle of his corn lough, and in the con- sciousness of solitu 0 said aloud, “Things grow clear if you think of them enough, and the Lord knows I don’t think of much else any more. It isn’t her good qualities which I say over to myselya hundred times a day, or her education, or any thin of the kind that draws me ; it's she herse f. I like her.

But the other side of this fact has an ugly look. Su pose I’m dis- agreeable to her. When s e married me she felt like a woman drowning; she was ready to take hold of the first hand reached to her, without knowing much about whose hand it was. Well, she’s had- time to find out.

What‘s a man to 'do? What can I do but live up to my agreement and not torment her any more than I can help with my company 2 That’s the only honest course. Perhaps she‘ll get more used to me in time. She might get sick, and then I’d Ibe so kind and watchful that she’d think the old fellow wasn't so bad after all. But I shan’t giive her the comfort of no end of selfsacri es in trying to be pleasant and so- ciable. If she’s foolish enough to think she‘s in my debt, she can’t pay it in that way. No, sir!

It seems that the treasure was found in the under- ground vaults of the palace, each pit or box being marked with a copper plate stating the contents and the name of the official who ‘ placed it there. When those connected With the regency learned that the secret of the treasure was known to those hostile to the young Prince they made the proposition to turn the money over to the Indian Govern- ment as a loan. The statement is made that the Prince, harassed by the dread that the treasure would be stolen, was more than will- ‘ ing to turn it over to the Government. N it secured for him a ood income, and his advis: ors seem to have cared the Government less than they did the intriguers in their own camp. It is reported that the treasure was made up not onl of coins, but of jewels, and it is clear that the predecessors of the young Maharajah buried their money instead of in- vesting it. we. .

Her hair was neatly combed, braided and tied with a blue ribbon instead of a string, her gown was as becoming as any dress could be to her, her little brown hands were clean, and they no longer managed the ,knife and fork in an ill-bred manner.
