ale took no notice of the remark.
' "Let the Dead Past bury its dead," '
he said aloud, but speaking exactly as
he might have done bad he been alone.
"No need to send this now," he mut-
tered in a lower tone as he took up his
unfinished letter. would Von Rosenberg

to the chimney -piece, he lighted a
match and with it set fire to the let-

so. When it had burnt itself away be
began to whistle under his breath.
"0 Gerald!" said his wife in a
grieved voice.

vsky would say."
T am grieved to say so, dear, but
his brain seems slightly affected;"
whispered Miss Primby to her niece.
"lf r were you I would call in Dr. Pres-
ton."
Before Clara could'reply Bunce came
in with a lighted lamp half turned
down. He left the curtains undrawn,
for a soft yellow glow stili lingered
over field and woodland.
As soon as he bad' left the room Mrs.
Brooke crossed to the couch on which
her husband had seated himself, and
taking one of his bands in hors, said:
Dearest, you must not let this affair,
shocking though it be, preytoo much
on your mind. It is not as if you had
lost an old and valued friend. Baron
von Rosenberg was but an acquaintance
-a man whose nacos even you had
never heard six months ago."
His only reply was to softly stroke
the hand that was holding one of his.
Clara waited a little and then she
said: "Will you not come and dress for
dinner ?"
He rose abruptly. "Dress for din-
ner I" he exclaimed with a strange dis-
cordant laugh. "How the comedy and
tragedy of life jostle each other 1 Grim

ing to heaven for vengeance. Yes.
let us go and dress for dinner; for, in
truth, you and 1 ought to rejoice and

"Gerald, you. frighten me."
"Nay, sweet one, 1 would not do

him and kissed her . .I am in a

know myself. I could laugh and I

a sigh.
At this moment in came Mr. Bunce
again. "If you please, ma'am," he said
to Mrs. Brooke,' here's a strange

"What shall 1 say next?" asked Ger- he d fol-

trived to gasp out, and then she stood
panting, unable to articulate another

dalised Bence, turning sharply on her.
"Why, you ain't even wiped your
shoes."
!That will do, Bunce, thank you,"
said Mrs. Brooke with quiet dignity.
Bunce sniffed and tried to screw up
his nose further than nature had done
already. 'Sieh meek I" was his com-
ment to himself as be left the room.
The person to whom this depreciatory
epithet was applied was a girl of some
sixteen or seventeen summers, Margery
Shook by name, who was dressed en a
coarse but olean bib and apron, a short
cotton frock considerably the worse for
wear, gray worsted stockings, thick
shoes, and a quilted sun -bonnet, from
under the flap of which her nut -brown
hair made its escape in tangled elf -Like
locks. Her bright hazel eyes had in
them more of the expression of some
half -tamed animal than that of an or-
dinary human being. tier features,
though by no means did
were
somewhat heavily moulded and not
respond readily to emotional expres-
sion. For the rest she was a well -
grown 'strongly -built girt, and when
she laughed her teeth flashed upon you
like a surprise.
Mar ery's laugh, if laugh It could
be called, was perhaps tbe most singer
Mr thing about her. It was witch-
like, weird, uncanny ; it never extend-
ed to her eyes; it broke out of the most
inopportune moments; to have been
awoke by it in the dead of night, and
not to have known whence it emanated
might have shaken the nerves of the
strongest man.
tug cold," he said to himself, with a
bitter smile as his wife °load the door.
"Poor darling! if I were to take cold
and have a fever and die, it would be
ithe best thing that could happen eith-
er to her or me." He began to pace
the room slowly, his hands behind
him, and his eyes bent op the ground.
"Nearly three months have passed since
nce
Karovsky's visit, and nothing
has been done. Only two more weeks
are
left me. Coward that 1 am,to are

ing

and I turned back. If I had begun one

ed; but now there is no time for fur-
ther delay. I will warn him that if he
wishes to save y,slife he must leave

lumimmediately, an
lam where his enemies will be power-

at some shadowy danger that impends
over him? or shall I tell him in plain

the information in whatever way he
may deem best. In doing this, as Kar-
ovsky said, I sbiill be sealing my own
doom. Well, better that, better any-
thing than tbe only other alternative."
He halted by one of the windows, and
stood gazing out of all the pleasant
features of the landscape he had learn-
ed to know and love so well. "It seems
hard to die so young, and with so much
about me to make life happy," he sad-
ly
adly mused. "I think I could meet my
fate on the battlefield without a mur-
mur -but to be murdered in cold blood
-to be the mark for some stealthy as-
sassin ! Poor Clara 1 poor darling! what
will you do when I am gone?"' He
sighed deeply as he turned from the
window. His Mees were dim with tears.
Presently he seated himself at the
davenport, and drew pen and paper to-
wards him. "No more delays; this very
night the Baron shall be told. But
how shall I begin? in what terms
shall T word my warning?" Ile sat and
mused for a minute or two, biting the
end of his Den as he did so. Then he
dipped the pen into the inkstand and
began to write: "Me dear Baron, from

accuracy of which I cannot doubt, I a

There are among the Jews many Deo -

Many of Mese isevere-m'ia1 a people,
becoming 'Cihmistiom's, brought over in-
to Christianity their sentiments and
methods. t ninny other Christians
were converted from the most Belt -in-
dulgent idolatry, which reveled in
feastiin and drinking and even !indulgence.sen-
sual They, when convey
ed to God, dropped, o$ coarse, their sin-
ful indulgence, but retained neverthe-
less a more generous and genial de-
light in the good things of earth than
the others. These two parties dif-
fered widely, pulled far apart, and
their hostility to each other rent and
tore some of the early churches. The
converted heathen, knowing that the
ods they used to worship were no
gods at all, felt that the food con-
secrated to them was consecrated to no -
thin and were quite evilling to eat
that food. The converted Essenes, be-
lieving that the idols were inhabited
b' devils, had an u'nspeal:able repugn-
ance for the food that had been offer-
ed. to them. Paul regards! these as the
weaker brethren. Evidently his per-

This on the other hand, is addressed
to the stronger class : Why do you de-
