After luncheon he played cricket in his shirt sleeves with Tom and Harry Hargraves, and eventually sipped a cup of tea in the library while he wrote an article for a London daily paper. Later, he dined alone with Lady Hargrave, and seeing she was absentminded. and not in very good Spirits, he laid himself out to win her attention and draw her thoughts away from domestic: worries. He clothed his original ideas and views with an indescribeh‘m grace and witchery, and iarshalled the conversation with such consummate skill that. the kind soul was charmed out of herself, and for the first time in her life discovered she was a brilliant talker.

There were some clever hits at the Govern- ment’s policy, and a telling, pithy story of an Irish landlord. He typed it and laid it in a. conspicuous place on the writing-table, where it would catch the master’s eye, and he could peruse and study it at his leisure. “There is no necessity to be plagued with the boys: let things slide to-day, Farley,” he l")!l'lal‘ked, as he signed the last letter and threw down his pen. “Besides, I shall have to make a speech to-morrow at the Farmers’ Association Meeting, and I want you to write me up something you con- sider adapted to an audience com- posed chiei‘ly of tenant farmers, with a. Sprinkling of landlords and labor- ers.” He lit‘ a cigar, flung the spent match into the fireplace, and walked to the door. “ By the way, Farley,” he said, “just hear in mind that the ma- jority of the audience have not matri- culated, and that a sense of the ludi- crous is latent in most peeple, and, as I haven’t an itch for speaking, for heaven’s sake don’t make the affair too long.” “I understand,” he answered readi- ly; “I’ll see to it at once.” “Dear Miss Hargrave,-â€"â€"The truth in this instance is essential and may be brutal. i am sure you are too wise to fret at the inevitable, and have too much pride to allow any man to spoil your happiness.

He laid his cheek on the soft fluffy tendrils of her hair and held her to him with a firm fond pres- sure.

Shifting his posi- tion a little. he discerned a ‘igure seated upon the worm-eaten circular bench, kept green and moist by the summer rains and the droppings of the roof. “Shall I come in?” he asked, stand- ing in the doorway smiling. The figure started to her feet and stood motionless. “Won’t you really welcome me?” he inquired, amused at Agnes’s attitude, smiling more broadly and holding out his hands. “No? Oh, fie, you dear silly little prude!” ‘He laughed as she shrunk back. “Come,” he said, striding across the stained floor, “I’ll take the initiative, sweetheart, and that means I shall kiss you.” “Love you! With all my heart and soul. Why, Agnes, you are the only creature on earth whom I care for, or who cares for me.” A little hand stole up to his neck, and in the moonlight he saw the fire and flash of a large diamond. His heart stood still. The pressure on the slim waist gradually relaxed He bent closely over the head nestled coyly against his breast, and brushing aside the lace mantilla looked into the love- ly blushing face of Rowena Wycherly. He started as if stung, and staggered back on to the crazy damp-rotted bench. “Y on really love me then?” asked a muffled voice from his shoulder.
