On the Brighton yront Harry Kerr 'did not at once or al- together forget the ilower-like face of tlie girl who was thinking and t.,...,teaniingof him within the grey old fitM of the Priory Bellenden. One day,. mored by an uncommon yearning, he wrote a feW lines to her, begging Only that he might not be entirely forgotten by her, and as- suring her that her face was -still his guiding -star. But it brought no answer. A few days later heagain wrote to .GrIselda Hume, asking her straightly .whether she ever saw Blanche' Carrington, and whether she could tell him anything to com- fort . MM. But to that letter also there came no reply. Then did the hot rage of disap- pointment take possession of Harry's heart, and he told himself that he could live his twii life without sym- pathy. or heartening -front these proud, careless girls, who had no consideration or feeling for a nian's lonlinees, Poor Harry had no idea that hewas ..being played upon by Lionel ltilaktiriee as a harp of ten strings is 'Played upon by a skillful musician, He was so transparent, se guileless in all his moods, and was his friend that he did -not eeek to hide from him the -chagrin of which his soul was full.
