the sea. The back of the house
leaked on to the road leading to
the railway station a little distance
away. Admission to the cottage
was gained by doors at back and

Tho house agent entrusted with
the letting of the place had de-
scribed it as possessed of advant-

There was ono -an unsurpassed

him to enter and be seated.
It was a charmingly arranged
room to which he was thus intro-
duced. Evidenced woman in every
insignificant little detail; her gentle
touch was visible in all things. Ho
thought of the touch of one woman
in particular.
Miss Dlivvins' spirit seemed to
have impressed itself in every fold
of the curtains; in all the quiet
harmony of coloring; in the inex-
pensive simplicity of the whole -
as distinct from cheapness.
Expensive simplicity often stamps
the quality of a room; it was not
lc be seen here. There was no-
thing cheap about the furnishing;
nothing meretricious; nothing to
catch the eye. Nothing of the en-
amel paint and varnish description;
all in that apartment was plainly
and simply what it represented it -
Felt to be; its keynote, truth.
Masters was astonished, because
hu had had no idea that such signs
of refinement existed in Wiver►sea.
But then lie knew its lodging hous-
es only, where the great god is As-
pinall and an uneasy chair the only
attempt at comfort.
He sat some moments waiting.
Whilst doing so ho thought again
of the carious wry in which tlie
maid had looked at him. Perhaps
Miss ,llivvins was in a less com-
fortable place than he had thought.
He had judged by the freedom she
enjoyed, that no possible harm
could result from his visit to her.
\Vas lie wrong?
Perhaps that accounted for her
hesitation, when he had suggested
calling with the books. 1Vhat n
fool he had been, not to think of
that! Perhaps she would get into
trouble by reason of his visit to her
employer's house.
The more he thought of this the
more uncomfortable he became. As
r. result of his deliberations deter-
mined that he would make his stay
a short and formal one. There
could surely be no harm accrue to
her from that.
The rustle of a woman's dress
warned him of her approach. Pre-
sently she entered. The moment
his eyes rested on her he was amaz-
ed : she was dressed so perfectly.
No scrap of color ; no scintillation

Sho got as fur as that. Then
stood at a loss for words. She had
spoken in such dead earnest tones
that it would have been absurd to
think her lying. Finding her
tongue again, she continued -
"Pray, pray believe me ! I was
stupid, I know, but don't be so herd
as to think nie capable of insulting

His forgiveness was hers that mo-
