THE PERFEC TEA DURHA M fl?! guaranteeu. DUN :3 Before many weeks had passed Luncewood was filled with guests. but they were of a kind never seen there before-ladies who laughed loud- ly and long, ill-bred men who oped fashionable manners. It was some- thing in those degenemte days to see a flung-party start from the grand entrance trodden once by the feet of kings. It was no wonder that the whole neighbourhood talked of the strange proceedings at Lance- wood. So the dreary months rolled by, and ’ivien found that slowly but surely all her father’s old friends had given Lady Nexlie up. Vivien herself was no! di>!:£l!'d(‘.d. She was invited to the best 11.2.1 ses i.) the County. Lady Neelie‘s name was passed over in significant silenceâ€"no one inquired for her. She sent out invitations that were invariably refused. Then she became defiant. She braved her neighbours‘ contemptâ€"she was seen oftener than ever riding with Mon- sieur de Nouchet. “Why does she th marry him ?” people asked. The question could have been answered by "miludi" her- self. There was perhaps nothing to be said against the morality of any one under its roof. but a. cloud hung over the placeâ€"ladies gave a. slight shud- der when the place was mentioned. “I knew some gay. light-hearted happy people there who do not meas- ure everythmg by rule as you Eng- libh do. 1 shall send for them.” The verdict of society did not ef- fect the gayeiies there. The inmates had private theatricals. charades, dances. There Were times when Viv- ien Neslie, listening to the loud laugh- ter and conversation. thought she would lose her reason. "the life led at the Abbey seemed to her now one round of orgies. She wondered that the very walls did not fell upon the revelers. Single-handed and alone she tried to stop the current of folly. gayety, and dissipation. She might as well have tried to stop the flow- ing tide; yet she did her best for the honor of the house. Months passed on, and as winter drew near “miludi” began to find Lancewoud dull. While she had plen- ty of VinilOI‘Sâ€"Wbile parties and balls and picnics had occupied herâ€"she had liked it well enough. Now it was dull; she had little to amuse herself with. Evil days indeed wera coming to the home of the proud Neslies. “Then I will do what. a. queen can- not. What I wanted to say is thisâ€" if these immaculate neighbours of yours will not visit me, i shall in- vite friends of my ownâ€"pauple that I knew in France years ago." “Then heaven help Lancewood!" thought .Vivien, but she made no re- ply- “Vivien,” said Lady Smeaton, on meeting her at a friend’s house one day, “I insist upon your coming over to the Park; I expect some very nice visitors, and you will enjoy your- self.” “The people will not set the house on fireâ€"though it seems to me they have done everything else," said Lady Speaton. “You look pale and ill; come for a change. You will be all the stronger for the combat when you The sympathy of the whole county went with her. There were few houses in which the imprudent con- duct of Lady Nellie was not canvassed. It was all the same to “miladi.” She laughed at it. People would come to their senses in time, and she would do as she liked. She rude with Mon- sieur de Nouchet, she insisted on his being treated as an equal, she scoffed at all advice; she dressed, she sang, she laughed. danced, flirted, and pleased herself; while no further mention was made of Oswald’s lessons, and Gerald Dormaa silently went on teaching. "Vixien she said one morning, “do you know whether these absuid peo- ple intend to persisc in declining my acquaintance 3" “How can I leave Lancewood ’3” she asked, sadly. do return." "Yesâ€"so long as you set the or- dinary rules of society at defiance,” replied Vivien. “Ah, well. that I shall continue to do! I consider myself in a position to follow my own rules of conduct." “No one can do thatâ€"not even a queen on her throne." replied Miss Neslie. She must weather the storm alone. She must stand alone guarding the honor of her house For evil days had dawned upon Lancewood â€" evil days for the beautiful home where heroes had lived and died. where pure and noble women had lived al- most saintly livesâ€"evil days for the grand old home wherein no shame had ever been sheltered. She stood as guardian of the place. trying her best, doing her best, yet wearing her heart away in bitter sorrow for the evil she couid not remedy. Through Storm and Sunshine " No,”‘he replied; “ I prefer English scenery, as 1' love English facess best. But, Miss Neslle, pardon me, it is of you yourself I want to talkâ€"you will not be angry with me? When 11001: at you, it seems to meithat you have suffered so much. You should not have that shadow of painful thought al- She was not angry with him. there was a new faint exquisite sen- sation stirring in her heart â€" some» thing like the rhythm of a beautiful melody â€" something that thrilled every nerve and flushed her [we with a. strange. sweet happiness. “You would even be amused.”con- tinued Lord St. Just. “if I told you how your face has haunted me. On the banks of the Nile, under the shade 'of the mighty pyramids, under the shadow of giant palms, I have thought of you; and the first thing I did on reaching England was to come in search of you.” It was about the middle of August. and Vivien had been then some days at Smeatou Park. They had been very happy days. despite the trouble that lay so heavy at her heart. Lord St. Just had been so pleased to see herâ€"they had become such intimate friends. Lady Smeaton, who desired nothing better than that Vivien should marry, threw them as much as possible together. She was de- lighted at finding Lord St. Just ad- mired the beautiful Miss Neslie. She gave a quiet hint to her daugh- ters to that effect; and Vivien hard- ly guessed how many hours each day she spent in the "company of her new friend. They were standing one evening in the Park â€"they had been walking for some time and had paused at a low stile that led to the cornfields. How fair and calm and sweet it was! The rich sun- light fell on the golden wheat-sheaves the hedge-rows were filled with mass-- es of bloom, the western wind. seemed to breathe of love, hope, and happi- “ This is surely fairer than any scene in France or Italy," she said. “ You Saw nothing in Egypt, Lord‘ St. Just, like this 8” “How did you know my name ?" she asked. “I did not tell it you." The scene returned 30 vividly to her â€"the blue, cloudless sky, the deep. clear river, the picturesque ruins, the arched window with its clinging ivy; the soft thick grass, on which she had flung herself in the passion of her despair. "And 1 have wandered far and wide â€"I have seen some of. the wonders of the worldâ€"but I have never for- gotten that hour," he observed. gravely. ness, far away stretched the wide.un- dulating park. It was a fair, tran- quil home-picture. Vivien sat down on the moss-cover- ed stepping-stones, and looked around her. And Vivien allowed herself to be persuaded; the notion of rest, even if only for a few days, was very sweet to herâ€"her life was so ter- ribly full of misery. She went to the Park, and one of the first people she met there was Lord St. Just. He had just returned from Egypt, and was delighted to see her. “I had intended to find you. Miss Neslie," he said quietly, “even if I had to search all England over. It was in the hope of meeting you that I came to Lancewood. I have always lived in the hope of seeing you again. I should have returned to England at once, but my plans were all arranged for a sketching tour down the Rhine. to be followed by a journey to Egypt. Had I had only myself to consult about these plans, the disarrangement of them would not have cost me a thought; but others were involved, so that I could not give them up. “Do not be angry with me. Miss Nesliet if I say that I took the mem- ory of your face and voice with me.” She turned to him with a slow, luminous smile. “Noâ€"you were cruelly reticent, but I soon learned it. All the English where I was stopping knew of Miss Neslie, heiress of Lancewood.” A shadow fell over her face and deepened in her eyes. “So I understandâ€"I have heard the story. 1 could not tell how often I wondered what had caused your sorrow. it was neither sickness nor death, nor the loss of friends or of fortune. I have pondered it for hours; now I understand you were lamenting the loss of Lancewood.” “1 have lived through so much since 3 then,” she said; “yet I'remember the Â¥ pain of that morning better perhaps than aught else in my life.” She. whose experience of lite had been so bitter, looked upon him in wonder. “You will never know how much," he replied; and then a deep silence fell upon them. “You did quite right to adhere to them," observed Vivien. “I am no longer heiress of Lance- wood.” she said. “You have thought so much of our meeting,” she said simply. "No, my interference makes it w-;orse that is the sorrow of. my life” she saidâ€" “ the sorrow that takes the brightness from my days, the sleep ifrom my nightsâ€"the sorrow that 'seems to hang over me and hide all :hope from me. To see degraded the '2 home that I have loved with such pas- ways in your eyes. Tell me; is it indeed for the loss of Lancewood you are in such despair ?" She raised her beautiful dark eyes and looked frankly at him. “ I will tell you,” she said. “ because I think that you. will understand me. I have said but little of my sorrow- people mistake it; they think it is. ;he loss of wealth and position. It is not that. If I had lost Lane-ewood and won three “times the value of» its rent- roll, I should not have cared for it. I was so proud of my home; I loved it as other peOple love living friends; it was everything to me. I had never thought of any other lot in life ex- cept taking care of Lanoewood; I had trained and fitted myself for it. If â€"-oh, believe me, Lord St. Just lâ€"if it had passed from me to one. noble, good just, loyal. one who would have loved it, I should have been pleased; it was not so much that I wanted Lancewood as that I wished it to be in wise, lov- ing keeping. You understand me ?” “Yes,” he replied, “I understand perfectly. I love my own home, King’s Rest, just in the same fashion. I would rather burn it to the ground than know that it was in unworthy hands." She looked up at him with quick, eager interest. “It is an appropriate one" he re- plied. You have heard of the. Hertwell Woods in Devonshire a famous hunt- ing place of the old English kings? One of them built a magnificent house near to them, where with his court he used to reside for weeks at a time. It. was called the ‘ King‘s Rest’ then; long years afterward it was purchas- ed by the founder of our flamily, and we are known as the St. Just's of King’s Rest. It is more like apalace than a house, and is, I think, one of the loveliest places in England,” “King’s Rest," she saidâ€"“what a peculiar name!” " I should like to see it,” she said m'usingly. His face flushed under her simple, unconscious gaze. “ I hope you will some day. You will admire it.” “ Yesâ€"that is, I have seen the tow- ers and turrets of the Abbey. from be- tween the trees. Miss Neslie, will you let me speak to you as a friendâ€"as an old friend? Try to imagine that we have known each other for many long yearsâ€"that we are trusted, true loyal friends." “ I will tell you just how much [a true,” she replied, and she told him exactly what had happenedâ€"how the Place was crowded with strange French visitors, peOple whom her faâ€" ther would not have admitted. “ Then let me talk to you. In com- men with every one else, I hear un- pleasant storles about Lancewoodâ€"are they true 3" “ Have you seen, Lancewood ?" she asked. “I can easily imagine it; it is not difficult with you,” she replied dream- ily. “ And you can do nothing to put an end to it ?” he said.

" No one knows what I suffer,” she observed. “ If I could save Lancewood by sacrificing my life I would do so. i would do anything to reswre it and make it what it was in my father’s time.” “ But these friends of Lady Neslie‘s â€"-who are they ?" he asked. "I cannot tell you. There are two or three military menâ€"French cap- tains, who play at billiards and drink cognac all day.
