Harry laughed, raised his stat, and walked off rather quickly. She had cheered. him more than she knew, though 'the moment s'xe was left alone the smile faded .from her face, and her eyes filled with foolish tears, "Dolly Vandom, you unspeakable little idiot, you're getting too soft for words. You're beginning to care, and that wasn't in the bond. I wish. I could get his, though, :air and squaye. There isn't anything that I wouldn't do for a good chap like that.

Maurice was simply hiding hi:, time. He had no real friendship for young Kerr, and he had ne ••r forgotten him for having, as he im- agined, sulip_lsnted him. with stis cousin Blanc114 ,: The .lelaurices as a Yeas were impliiaablc, and he had spade up his mind that, if he could Mot ,marry Blanche -Carrington, iC .1r• at least should not have her. And he was quite unscrupulous as to the aeeinethode.that he ;night adopt to pre- eent the occurrence of such aa • event. Next morning was grey in Len - don, with •a little haze upon tate river, and a threatening of rain in the -still and heavy air. Harry re- paired to Victoria Station at the ap- pointed time, and lie was much sur- prised to behold so much bustle. it seemed as if all the world, intent upon pleasure, was bound for Brighton on a Sunday morning. Dolly, ,looking radiant, wits wait- ig tor loin. She was attired in a stew spring euit of shepherd's plaid -of a somewhat pronounced .design, and was wearing a large hat swath- ed in roses. Her style was by no marine subdued, but site did not at- tract much attention in a crowd of tench a motley kint? and of such di- anen ui oals. In iipite of•Dolly's warning and in- structions Harry took two seats 'tor the Pullman,. •and there was an air about him as, lie showed his eon- ;)anion into the train which seeznetl to say that he -intended to have e good time at any cost. Dolly chat- tered gaily all the way dow:t. The smooth, gliding motion of the troi'i, the gay company, the feeling that he had got out of grey Leadon at last, excited a feeling of exhilaration in Hai•1'y's mind, and by the time tate train stenniecl intq Brighton station an. a blaze -et spring suushin' ::e was as •sprightly• as Dolly ,ter;e:f• Faxn liar with ever; i:.,.-. et the Dry, Hacking Cough Was Caused By *A "roseolas Mrs. - J.

I bad no idea it could be so lovely anywhere on a Sunday." "Good boy, to be pleased! Did- n't I promise you that we should -leave a jolly day all by ourselves? This will do you no end of good, Hal—slake you, buck up like any- thing. Let us walk right out to Ilove. In about half an hour the church parade will begin, then you will see something worth looking at, They strolled leisurely along, and many glances were cast at the tall, well-bred youth in the grey lounge suit and at his pretty com- panion, Nobody knew Harry, but several people recognized Dolly, and iter heart swelled with a pride wlliclt she made no effort to conceal over ]ler handsome cavalier, Who was tine envy of half the girls on the front. They strolled along, very well pleased with each other and with their surroundings until they came to the Hove lawns. As they turned towards the low- er Terrace I'Iarry gave a sudden start and exclamation, and his face paled. Dolly, as sharp as a needle, followed the direction of his eyes with her own, and she saw Maurice, who gravely raised his hat, He was walking with a slim and beautiful girl, and abreast of them was Jack Carrington with another lady.. Be- hind, strolling happily along by the side of his wife's bath chairs and smoking a fine cigar, Bentley Car- rington looked at peace with the whole world. The entire .party,• however, in- stantly saw and recognized. Harry Kerr, It was a ghastly moment for him.

Blanche was quite pale, and turn- ed her head away; Maurice, walk - big with her, had a slightly asto,n- islted, slightly reproachful express ion, admirably assumed;• Griselda belts her head high in the air, and disdain was in her eyes. Her com- panion stared somewhat supercili- ously, while Bentley Carrington himself looked stern and angry be- cause he had seen the colour sud- denly recede ;from' his daughter's face. Mrs. Carrington was the only par - sod who spoke. "Oh, that is that nice Harry Kerr! Why doesn't somebody speak to him? Who is that with slim, Bentley? Why don't you go after him and ask him to lunch? We ought to be kind te him for his mother's salve." "Hush, my dear. Dou't you see that 11e is with somebody whom we can't recognize?" "No!" cried Mrs. Carrington in- credulously, and at the same time impelled by a woman's curiosity .elle craned her neck to look after the two rapidly retreating figures. The incident happily -occurred at 'renderedtt ch spot, t a convenientl o , wlu possible tor Harry Kerr and his companion to escape immediately out of 'range of these six pairs of disconcerting eyes. "What a lark! said Dolly delight- edly as she tossed her nodding plumes. "And don't they look saucy, every one of them? Go, back atter your pals, Hal, if you like. C won't mind; I'm not that sort. I can «always pick up a pal, you know. I have seen several on the front this' morning,' "Shut up, Dolly!" - said Harry in a. savage undertone. "I don't want to go and talk to them. I don't Want to see one of them again—not one of tlrenl! Hang them all!" He was frightfully angry, The hot temper of the Riddell Kerrs surged itt his veins and made his face dark- ly, red; 11e clenched the hand hang- ing at his side. "Did you see Maurice? He's not playing the game with me, Dolly, sonielrow. I been nearly certain of it for some time, but I'll have It out whir him tonight, See if I don't!"

"It explains a lot of things," ,"Tell me who the swells are, any- how—tbo lactase, L mean." "The one walking with Maurice is Carrington's daughter, the other girl is a girl ;'.rom my home whom I have known since elle was a baby. We were brought up together,' and we have been the best of friends and comrades all our lives; and did you see how she looked at me nevertheless, and the sweep she gave to her skirts. Heavens, I'll never forget it or forgive lies as long as I live:" "Neither shall I," said Dolly vic- iously, ";the •may be what she likes and site may have ten titles to her name if she likes too, but she isn't any straighter than T, Dolly Vandom of the Frivolity, am --see; and I'll tell lien so the first chance I get. Put her or the other one with the baby face down in the tight corners that I have been in, and see what would happen! Dolly would get in first every time. But I'm really ,sorry this llas happened, Hal, since it has upset you so horribly. It has just simply gone and spoiled our day at the beginning." She spoke with such genuine sym- pathy that Harry looked at her with a sudden rush of gratitude. She was the cause of his misfortunes, so to speak, but It hats been innocent- ly brought about. It was chiefly against Maurice that his anger burned, and he determined to have it out with him at true first opportune sty, As Dolly had said, their day was spoiled. Mortally afraid lest he ,slto.u.ld-1lave.. another .encounters with the patty. yet longing with ,indes- cribable longing to see Blanche again, poor Harry was in straits be- twixt two. Filially, however, lie yielded to his companion's suggest- ion that they should return to town by the side streets. "We had better avoid the hotels,' said Dolly confidentially, "though I believe that the 3ietropole would be safe enough. They look like the Norfolk" "We'll do no such thing, Dolly," said Harr.' Kerr. setting his jaw firmly, "I have, brought you out for the day, old` girl, and I'm not going 'back on you. . We'll pop into tate Metropole for-ltinch, and if they are there. why, then, the sight will do then good and show them that I'121 a match for them." He spoke up bravely, but the misery of his soul was almost in- tolerable, From one of the shel- ters on the front the party saw Harry and his companion .enter the Metropole together, - and more than one of thein was thankful that,.• as they were housed elsewhere, there need be no second meeting. After luncheon. which Dolly thor- oughly enjoyed despite the fact that her high spirits were • somewhat dashed by the incident of the morn- ing and' by the evident distraction of her companion, a fine rairi•began to filter through the warm, pleas- ant air. having the immediate effect of causing the front to be deserted. "Let's go back to London, Hall," said Dolly when site grew tired of watchleg the people in the winter garden and when the restlessness of her na nure once more asserted itself.
