"How happy you must be to have travelled and have seen so much!" said Agatha; "I would give anything to go to Spain." * "I can give you the latest news of Spain, Miss Lynne," said Allan, "for I apent the last six months there." It was a merr yparty that sat during those warm, sumny hours under the great cedars. Yot Inez smiled half bitterly to herself as she noted that both the gentlemen were devoted to her sister. She wondered if they were charmed by her childlike gaiety, by her simple, inâ€" nocent sweetness, or by the winins grace of her manmer, so kind an thoughtful. She wondered halt bitterly why her own magnificent beauty had not mare power, why those cold iyngll-b hearts did not warm to her; she felt alâ€" most alone, did this strange, gifted woman. Perhaps there was something too regal and queenly in the style of her beauty, for it was evident that both Philip and Allan stood rather in awe of her. He looked with surprise at the beauâ€" tiful girl by Agatha‘s side. His father told him that fh. Lynne had been sent for to Lynnewolde; but he had said nothing of what she was like, and Allan had pictured to himself a dark, lonlfl- looking girl, by the side of whom his beloved would shine like a star. He was not prepared to see the loveliest and most brilliant woman he had ever met. and woo and -uduvortowhthllri he had loved so long. He had spent the last three years on the continent, and wos so improved by his travels, and so aitered, that Agatha hardly recognized him.

"I think it would be very nice to have the tableaux as a surprise, not to let anyone know of them. But we shall want a little more assistance.

"Do let us have the balcony scene from ‘Romeo and Juliet,‘" cried Agatha. "Inez would make a better Julist than the real one, I believe. You might be Romeo, Lord Lynne." "That will do excelently for one then," said Lord Lynne. "And I could take the part oi Queen Elizabeth," said Inez. "Yesâ€"I could look as she did before she knew who Amy Robsart was." "No," said Inez, "I do not think I could look like Rebecca. Let me have something I feel at home in. Certainly 1 shall not do so in any attitude of paâ€" tience,or seliâ€"sacrilice, or resignation. I do not like to be Rebecca. I should like to be prosperous, happy, and beloved. I do not think I should look at all patient if any fairâ€"haired Rowena took all I loved best from me." She spoke rapidiy, with a curious ring in ber musical voice, and her listeners gazed at her in surprise.

He meant nothing by it; but it was not in human nature to be blind to the love that glowed in that beautiful face. Then came the pretty balcony sceneâ€" the lovely loveâ€"lit face of Inez Lynne shining like a star in the depth of night, and Lord Lynne as Romeo, looking as he supposed Romeo to have looked after the words ~~ There was a hush when the curtain fell upon that picture.

Half hiding in a kind of grove or artificial bower tgere stood a pale, lovely, fairâ€"haired girl. Her sweet face told its own tale of terror and hope. Her fair had fallen around her like a soft, shining veil, and her white hands were raised and clasped in snupplication. _ It was Agatha Lynne as Amy Robsart. _ Standing near her, lookâ€" ing with haughty eves and cold, disdainâ€" ful face, was the sroyal lady, who would fain would have crushed the gentle life of the fair girl who stood between her and her love. A terrible moment was that in which the royal lady looked upâ€" on the gentle girl and knew who she was. It was faithfully rendered. There was something almost sublime in the concentrated passion of Inez Lynne. Litâ€" tle mercy would she feel or show to one who stood in the way of her love.

Standing by her side, his handsome face peeping over her shoulder, was a Spanish cavaber, wearing the picturesque cloak and the plumed hat. _ It was a stolen interview, and _ at one window of the apartment stood a sister or friend, evidently watchâ€" ing that they should not be surprised. The expression on the frce of this kindâ€" ly guard (Evelyn Leigh) was excellent in its mingled archne=s and anxiety. But _ When the silver chimes of the little clock rang out that "mystie hour," the lights in the room were subdued; there was a soft sound of music, and t'.‘u curâ€" tain was drawn up on one of the prettiâ€" ost tableaux ever arranged. It was copâ€" ied from an old Spanish picture, called " The Surprise." One read the story at a glance.
