She could find no way out of her difficulty un- til the idea occurred to her that the best person to help her would be John Brooks; and her whole heart and soul fastened eagerly on this. And the clear. innocent simple con- science was quick to answer, ‘ No!" Poor Daisy looked at the position in every possible w ay, and the more she reflected the more frightened she became. Had she done wrong in letting Rex and the whole world believe her dead? Was it ever well to do a wrong that good should come from it?

The words sounded like a fatal warning to her. No, no; she could not, she must not, be too late! Persuasion was useless. “Perhaps Heaven knows best." sighed Mrs. Tudor, and with tears in her eyes, for she had really loved the beauti- ful young stranger, thrown for so many long weeks upon her mercy and kinduew, she saw Daisy depart. “May God grant you may not be too late!” she cried, fervently, clasp- ing the young girl, for the last time, in her arms. In Vain Mrs. Tudor pleaded with her to go back to her husband and beg him to hear her. “You Ml! keep 15y secret," subbed Daisy; and in her great sorrow she glid not notice the lady did not. prom- ISO.

"How could you do it? What is Rexford Lyon to you?" Mrs. Tudor listened in painful in- terest. and amazement. It was a strange story this young girl told hvr; it seemed more like a romance than a page from life’s history.‘ “I am going away,” she cried. "I have been guilty of a great wrong. I can not tell you all that I have done but I must atone for it it it is in my power while yet there is time.

The very thought seemed to arouse all her energy. “What a fatal love mine was!” she said to herself; “how (atal, how cruel to me 21' Her _whole heart seemed to go out to her young husband and cling to him as it had never done before. The terrible awakening truth had flashed upon her suddenly; she might hide herself forever from her hus- band, but it would not lessen the fact; and she only, was his lawful wife be- fore God and man. Fro'm Heaven nothing could be hidden. The marriage must not be! Say, think. argue with herself as she would. she could not help owning to herself that it was something that must be stopped at any price. She had not realized it in its true light before. She had had a vague idea that her supposed death would leave Rex free to marry Pluma. That wrong could come of it, in any way, she never once dreamed. int, he must act. “ can not go to poor old Uncle John first,” she, told herself. “I must go at once to Pluma. Heaven give me strength to do it. Rex will never know, and I can go quietly out of his life again.” Like the good little wife she was, Mrs. Tudor obediently obeyed. It was not often the cool, calculat-g “Skim lightly over the details, my dear; just give me the main points," he said. Very reluctantly Mr. Tudor resum- ed his seat at his wife's earnest per- suasion. “You will ma'ke along Si‘ofii out of nothing," he exclaimed, impatient- ly; "and tooling my time here may cost me a fortune." “Wait a bit, Harvey," she replied, a merry twinkle in her eye. "You have given me no time to tell you. I do know where she went. Sit down and I will tell you all about it.” Down from the 'rack came his hat and coat. ' “Where are you going, Harvey "' “I am going to hunt that girl up just as fast as I can."

He placed the portrait in his breast-pocket. and walked slowly. home. A brilliant idea was in his ac- tive brain. “I shall soon see." he muttered. . His wife met him at the door, and he saw that her eyes were red with weeping. “Gone!" yelled the detective, fran- tically, “where did she go? How long hafi she been gone?” “I’shuw! people have a strange trick of resembling each other very often," he muttered; "I must be mis- takenfl’ It was almost time for quitting the office for the night, when the detec- tive thought of the portrait. He un- tied the faded blue ribbon and touch- ed the spring; the case flew open, re- vealing a face that made him cry out in amazement; At that opportune moment some one interrupted them. Mr. :Tudor had not time to open the portrait and examine it then, and, placing it se- curely in his private desk, he courte- ously bade Mr. Hurlhurst good-after- noon; adding, it he should find apos- sible clew, he would let him know at once», or, perhaps, take a run up to Whitestone Hall to look around a bit; among the old inhabitants of that locality. “You will lose no time,” Said Basil Hurlhurst, rising to depart. “Ah!” he exclaimed, “I had forgotten to leave you my wife’s portrait. I have a fancy the child, if living, must have her mother's face.” Rex Lyon! Ah! the detective rs- membered him wellâ€"the handsome, deb‘onair young fellow who had sought his services some time since, whose wife had died such a tragic death. He remembered how sorry he had been for the young husband; still he made. no comment. He had 'littlc time to ruminate upon past at- fairs. It was his business now to glean from Mr. Hurlhurst all the in- formation possible to assist him in the difficult search he was about to commence. If he gave him even the slightest clew, he could have had some definite starting point. The detective was wholly at seaâ€"it was like looking for a needle in a hay- stack."

On the night my lost child was born I made my will, leav- ing Whitestone Hall and the Hurl- hurst Plantation to the child just born, and the reminder of my vast estate I bequeathed to my daughter Pluma.

I have not told her of the startling discovery I have made; for if anything should come of it. her hopes of a life-time would be dashed. She believes herself sole heiress to my wealth.

I heartily agreed with her, knowin her house to be as daintily neat as possible. and she is considered an ex- pert cook.

Again, is it worth while to keep the kitchen range polished like sil- ‘ver when hands, arms and shoulders pay the penalty afterward ? Might o-ne not be classed as a good housekeeper if it was neatly wipe-d with flannel cloth or paper after each meal? One housekeeper never has beefsteak,fried chicken or griddle cakes, though the family are fond of them, just because the immaculate stove would suffer. One of the neatest housekeepers said to me: “ How Ihate to be called an, exquisite housekeeper. You know all that implies? That wonderfully pol- ished kitchen stove, and the endless scrubbing of every board, the doing everything certain days, wash Mon- days, etc. No. I don’t do it.
