"Oh, pleaSe do," said Ruth—"some- thing cheerful." But Lady Anne would not sing: again, and Ruth wondered why she would not Sing. Even that, to her suspicious mind, had some, hidden meaning.

"I like her very march, Al " h replied, and then, aftei- a pause: "Don't you?" "I don't care for her poems," he answered with a laugh. "She gave me a volunie to read.

"Why did you think that, Fletcher?" remember_ you saying something of the sort, My lady." Ruth laughed. " "Well, perhaps I did," she replied. "In any ease you were right, Fletcher." But Ruth remembered well enough that she had not saida word to the maid about the matter, and this scisap of conversation haunted her for many an ' hour afterwards. It seerned, to point to some ,,,gollusion between her husband . and Fletcher. Perhaps it explained whYeFletcher had not left her service.
