IT was not yet 10 o'clock, and I was dismayed at the thought of being left tom own devices in hi Ythis Uig country house, at an hour when the talk at the Hare and Tortoise usu- -aily became worth while. I sat down and began to turn over the periodicals on the library table, but 1 was in no .mood for reading. The butler appeared anti offered me drink, but the thought of driuking alone did not appeal to me. 1 repelled the suggestion coldly, but after 1 bad dropped my eyes to the English review I had taken up I was couscious that he stood his ground.

POW people were ever morn en- thusiastic in praising; Dr. Chase's Ointment than the :writer of this Tet. ter. When you read the deseriptlon of his case you will not wonder why. Mr. John Johnson, Coleman, Alta., writes: "Three years ago I was cured of blind, itching plies of 27 years' standing by using Dr. Chase's Oint. anent. I used to think that death. would be the only relief I would ever yet from the terrible misery of Atlee.

The roof wus gained, I metalled, by an iron ladder and a hatchway in a trunk room, I ran down to my room and found a candle, to be armed against, any further fickleness of the lights, and set out for the fourth door. I had changed tny coat and with a couple of candles and a box of matches started for the roof. My courage had risen now, and I was ready for any further adventure that the night might bold for me. Miss Hollister and Cecilia were both In their rooms, presumably asleep. The servants doubtless bad their doors barred against ghostly vis- itors, and the house was mine to ex- plore as I pleased. I thiuk I was humming slightly as I mounted the stair, which, in keeping with the general luxuriousness that characterized the furnishing of the house, was thickly carpeted even to the fourth floor. I was slipping my hand along the rail and mounting, 1 dare say, a little jauntily as I screwed guy courage to an unfamiliar notch when suddenly, midway of the first half and just before 1 reached the turn where the stair broke, the lights failed again with startling abruptness. This was carrying the joke pretty far, and instantly. I clapped my hand to my pocket for the box of safety matches d it out and then in my $E, A trans it's a gnost: 'But you forge James, that this is a new house, only a year or so old, and spooks don't fre- quent such places. If it were an old place it might be possible that the creaking of floors and.the settling ot walls would cause uneasiness in nerv- ous people. The ghost tradition usual- ly rests on some ugly fact. But here nothing of the kind is present." "Flit was one of 'is majesty's horlfi- cers, sir," he answered hoarsely. It flashed over tne that this big stol- id fellow was out of his bead; but. sane or mad he was clearly greatly dis- turbed. It was best, I thought, on either hypothesis to speak to him per- emptorily, and I rose, the better to deal with the situation. "What nonsense is this you have in your bead? You're in the United States, and there aren't any majesty's soldiers to deal with. You forget that you're not in England now." "But this 'ere country used to be Henglish, you may recall, sir.

"You'd better go to bed, James. And don't encourage talk among the other servants about this ghost. I know something about the building of houses, and l'll give these walls a good looking over. Good night." I made myself comfortable for an hour, smoking a cigar over an article on English politics, and while I read a big log placidly burned itself to ashes. I found the switch and snapped out the library lights. When I had gained the second floor I turned off the lights in the hall below, and, as I looked down the well to make sure I had turned the right key, the third floor lights suddenly died and I was left in darkness. This was the least bit dis- concerting. I was quite sure that the upper lights had remained burning brightly after the darkening of the lower hall, so that it was hardly pos- sible that the one switch bad cut off both lights. Standing by the rail that guarded the well, I peered upward, thinking that some one above me was manipulating another switch, but the silence was as complete as the blackness. I was about to turn from the rail to the wall to find the switch, but at this moment, as my face was still lifted in the in- tentness with which I was listening, something brushed my cheek—some- thing soft of touch and swift of move- ment As I gripped the rail I felt this touch once, twice. thrice.

The stair had narrowed on this flight, and as I sought with futile eagerness to regain the bol lid I could have sworn that some one passed me. Still half stooping, I stretched out my arms and clasped empty air, and so suddenly had 1 thrown myself for- ward that I lost my balance and roll- ed downward the space of half a dozen treads before I recovered my- self. I was badly seared and hardly less angry at having missed through my own clumsiness the joy of grap- pling with the ghost of one of King George's soldiers. But the matches having been lost in the pitch darkness 'of the stair, I could get my bearings again only by clinging to the stair rail until I found the second floor switch. I should say that two full minutes had passed between the loss of the matches and my flashing on of the lamps. From top to bottom the lights shone brightly. But no one was visible, and I heard no sound in any part of the house. As I began to analyze my sensations during the temporary eclipse of the lights I was conscious of two things. I The being, human or other, that had passed me had been light of step and fleet of motion. There had been some- thing uncanny in the ease and speed of that passing. I was without con- viction as to its direction, whether up or down, though I inclined to the for- mer notion for the reason that the em- ployment of a concealed switch above seemed the more reasonable argument, And a faint, an almost imperceptible scent, as of a flower, had seemed to be a part of the passing. Mine is a sensitive nostril, and I was confident that it did not betray me in this. I gathered up my matches and start- ed again for the roof. The trunk room door opened readily, as on my morn- ing orning inspection of the chimney pots, but as I glanced up I saw that the hatch was open. Through the aper - t I Stood With Hoed and Shoulders Thrust Through the Opening. tare shone the heavens, a square of stars and bright with the moon's ra- diance.

Itis sudden ex- clamation caused the girl to turn, and as a reasonable frankness has always seemed to me essential to a nice discre- tion I crawled out on the roof. "I beg your pardon, Miss Hoilister, but if I had known you were here I should not have intruded. The vaga- ries of the library chimney have been on my mind, and I was about to have another peep into yonder pot." She stood at per ease, with one hand resting lightly against the inexplicable chimney in question and still some- what spent from her exercise. "Father," she said, turning to the stranger who stood near, "this is Mr. Ames, who is Aunt Octavia's guest," The light of the gibbous moon en- abled to discern pretty clearly the form and features of Mr. Bassford Hollis- ter. And 1 find, In looking over my notes, that I accepted as a matter of course the singular meeting with my hostess' brother. I had grown so used to the ways of the Hollisters I already, knew that the meeting with another member of the family at 11 o'clock at night on the roof of this remarkable house gave me no great shock of sur- prise. Be was tall, slender and dark, with fine eyes that suggested Cecilia's. (lis close trimmed beard was slightly gray, but he bore himself erect, and I bad already seen that he was alert of arm and eye and nimble of foot. "Father and I have fenced together for years," said Cecilia. "Nly sister Hezekiah does not care for the sport. As you have already seen that my Aunt Octavia is an unusual woman, given to many whims, 1 will not deny to you that at present my father is persona non grata in this house. 1 beg to assure you that nothing to his dis- credit or mine bas contributed to that situation, nor can our meeting here to- night be construed as detrimental to him or to me.

Ceeilla had spoken steadily, but her voice 'woke as she concluded, and she walked quickly toward the hatchway. Her father stepped before me 10 give her his hand through the opening.

CHAPTER Xl. My Befuddlement Increases. OU must understand, Mr. wits Aines, that guy daughters, both of theta, are very dear to me," said Bassford Ilollis- ter. "It is the great grief of guy life that, owing to matters beyond my con- trol, I have been unable to ease for them as I should like to do. This be- ing the case, I have been obliged to al- low them to accept many favors from my only sister Oetayia. This, in ordi- nary circumstances, would not be re- pugnant to my pride, but my sister is a very unusual person. She must do for my children in her own way, and while I was prepared, in agreeing that they should accept her bounty, for some whimsical manifestation of her eccentric character, I did not imagine that she would go so far as to shut me out from all knowledge of her plans for them, That, Mr. Ames, is what has happened." His voice rose and fell mournfully. He puffed bis pipe for a moment and continued: "There is now something forward here which I do not understand. 1 have an idea that Octavia has contriv- ed some preposterous scheme for choosing a husband tor Cecilia that is in keeping with her odd fashion ot transacting all her business. 1 do not know its nature, and by the terms ot her agreetnent Cecilia is not to dis- close tite method to be employed to me—not even to me, her own father. You must agree, Ames, that that is rather rubbing it in," "Rut yon don't assume that yn:tr daughter Is not to be a tree agent in the matter? You don't believe that some unworthy and improper man is to be forced upon her?" "That, sir, is exactly what 1 fear." "You will 'pardon me, but I cannot for a moment believe that miss Hol- lister would risk her niece's happiness even to satisfy her own peculiar hu- mor. Your sister is a shrewd woman, and her heart, I am convinced, is the kindest, Among the suitors now camped at the Prescott Arms there must be some one whom your daugh- ter approves, and I see no reason why he should not ultimately be her choice.

"That man may be all that you say," he cried chokingly, "but he has acted infamously toward both my daugh- ters. He is a rogue and a most despic- able fellow. He has flirted outrage- ously with Hezekiah while at the same time pretending to be deeply inter- eSted in Cecilia." "But, my dear sir, is it not possible that you do him a great wrong? May it not be the Other way round that Ilezekiah is trifling with Wiggins' af- fectioes? He's a splendid fellow, Hart- ley artley Wiggins, but he's a little slow, that's all. And between two superb young women like your daughters a man may be pardoned for doubts and hesitation. The thing is bound to straighten itself out."

Incredible, my dear sir, but wholly possible!" "Then, such being the case, why doesn't she show her hand openly? You send conjecture far when once you entertain so absurd an idea." "You think my assumption unlike- ly?" he asked eagerly. "I certainly do, Mr. Hollister. You may as well assume that, as Wiggins is specially favored in the number of letters in his singularly prosaic and un- romantic name. it is ;Hiss Hollister's plan to keep him dallying seven years." He seized me by the arm and forced Inc back against the battlements, then stood off and eyed me fiercely. "You speak of serving and of service! Will you telt me just why you are here and what brings you into this affair? What are you doing in my sister's house, where I bare to come like a thief in the night to see one of my own children?" I hastened to declare my profession and that 1 had been summoned by Miss Hollister to examine her chimneys. I could not, however, tell him that until my arrival the chimneys had behaved themselves admirably. "You've admitted your friendship for this Wiggins person—that's enough," be said when 1 bad concluded. "1 ad- vise you to leave the house at once. I tell you he's got to be eliminated from the situation. Understand that I do not threaten you with violence, but I will not promise to abstain from visit- ing heavy punishment upon that fel- low. And you? A chituney doctor? I am a man of considerable knowledge of the world, and 1 say to you very candidly that 1 don't believe there is any such profession." "Then let me tell you," I replied, not without beat, "that I am n graduate in architecture. I am your sister's guest, and as she is perfectly competent to manage her own affairs 1 shall stay here as long as it pleases her to ask me to remain. And now, one other matter. How did you gain this roof tonight, when by your own admission yob are not on such terms with your sister as would justify you in entering it openly?" The moonlight did not fall to convey the contempt in bis face, but I thought he grinned as be answered quietly: "You don't seem to understand, young man, that you are entitled to no explanations from me. You strike me as a singularly fresh young person. It would be a positive grief to me to feel that my conduct bad displeased you. And now, as the night grows chill, I shall beg you to precede me into the house by the way you came." "Bnt first," I persisted, "let me ask a question. It is possible that you your- self have some preference among your daughter's several suitors, Mr. Hollis- ter. Would you object to telling me which one you would choose for Miss Cecilia?" "Beyond question the man for Ce- cilia, if I have any voice in the matter, is Lord Arrowood." "Arrowoodl" I exclaimed. "You sur- prise ur prise me greatly. 1 saw him at the inn, and he seethed to me the most in- significant and uninteresting one of the lot." "That proves you a person of poor gifts of discernment, Ma Ames." And his tone and manner were quite rem- iniscent of his sister's ways, and his further explanation proved him even more Worthily the brother of his sis- ter- ' As I was obliged," he began, "ow- ing to au unfortutaate physical haitdi- cep, to abandon my art, that Of a tea - rine painter, I have given my atten- tion tor a number of years to the kttu1y of the Irish situation.

Then suddenly, just as we reached the stairway, out went the lights, and we were in utter darkness. I smothered an exclamation, clutched my matches and struck a light, and as the stick flamed slowly I looked about for Bassford Hollister. But he had vanished as suddenly and com- pletely as though a trap bad yawned beneath us and swallowed him. I found the third floor switch, and it responded immediately, flooding the stair well to the lower hall, but I nei- ther saw nor heard anything more of Hollister. Astounded by this performance, I con. tinned on to the lower floor to have a look around, and there. calmly reading by the library table, sat Miss Octaviai "Late hours, Ur. Ames!" she cried. "1 supposed you had retired long ago." "Pardon my troubling you, but may I inquire, Hiss tinllister, how long, you have been sitting here?" The clock on the stair began to strike 12, and she listened composedly to a few of the deep toned strokes before replying. "Just half an hoer. I thongbt some one knocked at my door about an hour ago.
