QEE'EEE “How lucky it was that I claim- ed old Dr. Thorpe's money instead of turning it over to Margaret.” she thought exultantly. "Fate has worked everything like a. charm for “Next to love, revenge is sweet." some writer has said, and Aurelia found it extremely pleasant to ima- gine Randolph Clavering‘s surprise. and his chagrin in not having se- cured her. when he found her the petted. courted heiress of some great English estate. “I have been thinking over the matter." he returned slowly. "and. nave conc1uded that It. would be un- wise, for the reason that it would but revive the old scandal of my wife Aurelia‘s flight long years ago. I am traveling in this country un- der the name of Count Lorenzo. No. you can make your arrangements quietly, and at once to go to England. I will cross on the same steamer with you. and when you reach your native shores you must take your rightful place in the world at once. Do these arrangements meet with your approval?" “Entirely,” declared Aurelia. her eyu brightening. “Are you going to claim me as your daughter, papa," she asked -â€" “nowâ€"to-night?" When her father returned he found her standing. leaning heavily against one of the slender palm-trees, with an expression on her face that he never afterwards forgot. It. was during his absence that. Randolph Clavering and his young bride passed through the conserva- tory. and Aurelia heard the con- versation between them related in a. previous chapter. And leaving here there he hastened on his mission. He noticed it. "l‘he excitement of this interview is too much (or you, my dear." he said. in alarm. "Let me get you : glass of wineâ€"an iceâ€"something. You are trembling, too." “You may get me a glass 0! wine, papa. if you will," she said. A guilty flush swept over Aun- ua’s lace, leaving it. as white as "Yours has been a. strange. event- ful experience. child," he said. when she had concluded; "but hencdorth you shall know no more sorrow. your path will be one of roses." She gave him the story in detail truthfully enough, until she came to the episode of Margaret's depar- ture from the farm. She gave her father to understand that Margaret had died at this period, and that the money Dr. Thorpe had so strange- ly bequeathed, had been left to her- self. instead of Margaret. "Then, in that case. you, Aurelia. are the heiress to Lancaster Manor. one of the finest estates in Eng- land," he said; “but tell me the story of your life, from first to last. How you came to be living in luxury like this?" A sigh lips. It: doubt hcr‘ And quick as thought Aurelia. mswered: " Is she hoarsely. "My mother is beyond all reach of your anger 6r revenge." said the girl slowly. "She is dead! I can taka you to her grave." ”You might, as well search for 3 grain of sand on the seashore â€" a blade of waving grass on the hill side, as to look for Margaret." "From that day to this I have searched for her, never finding trace of her until to-night. Now I ask this: Where is your mother, and where is Margaret, my child?" "And my little Margaret?" he asked hoarsely. "My Margaret's child. who is now the heiress of Lancaster Manor?" “0n the day that I rose from my sick-bed, they broke the intelligence to me that Aurelia had fled, taking with her her little child, andâ€" Margaret’s babe.

And any man with an ar- tist's eye could not help being struck with the heavenly beauty of this fair young girl. I use the word hea- venly advisedly. because there is more of the saint in her face than the taint of earth." On searching for Dr. Briscoe that morning. the lad in charge of his down-town ofice had directed him to the hospital, where he told him. he would be sure to find the doctor between the hours of ten and twelve a.m., and thither Gerald bent his steps. Yes, she must see Gerald at. once, she told herself. As for Gerald Ro- maine there was an excellent reason as to why he was not at. the grand reception that. evening. She could ,even smile patronizing- ly on Randolph Clavering and his bride now. as they passgd her by. It came natural to Margaret. 1!- ter all to toil for her daily breadâ€" sho was in her natural sphere: while she herself, born of aristocratic pub ents. was a. lady, and more fitted to rule over those vast English do- mains than timid, modest Margaret. Now, the told herself. she could really understand why she and 1hr- 'garet were so differentâ€"as widely diaerent as the gloriously brilliant stars in the ‘ sky and the simple field daisiesâ€"earth stareâ€"that roar- ed their timid heads tram the dust. of the roadside. She had always supposed Mar- garet and herself to have been twins and. of course. of the same par- entage; it was a surprise to know that Margaret was older than she by two years, and, above all. a great our-prise to know that her mother was only an English pou- ant girl. as she phrased it. As it was, her aim was grasp 0.11. an}! legver Margaret nothing. . Perhaps if she had not been no pitiless towards hapless Margaret. Heaven might, have shown her more mercy in the end. “Good tortune is pouring in upon me," she thought. “I will marry Gerald and have his great wealth. and I will go to England. too, and claim the vast inheritance my moth- er intended that I should have." Even in this moment the heart- less ' not say to hersell: "I ve Margaret her right- ful inheritance in Englandâ€"give to her also the money Dr. Thorpe left to her. and besatisfied with Ger- ald’s fabulous wealth, and Gerald'- love.” Of course he must have been to the {arm in search of her, and how disappointed he must. have been when he lound her gone. and that. he could find no trace of her.
