Elaine seized the opportunity, and 'with a murmured "Good -evening," left him. She walked along the bank to the point at whioh sho began to climb the hill, and felt rather than saw that he was standing where she had left him, and looking after her; and when half way up, site glanced down, she saw that he was still there, there, leaning against the rail, his hands thrust in his pockets, his treat, sunk upon his breast. Elaine reached the cottage, but in- stead of entering, sank down on a rustic seat flail' hidden in a bower of roses and llonoyseekle. Her brain was in a whirl. To every woman, says the French poet, must comp her first proposal; but, strange as it may seem, Cap- tain Sherwin's proposal did not oc- cupy* the principal place in her hind. It was of that other character in the strange trio sho could not help thinking—of the marquis. •Her life had been so quiet and un- eventful that the incict nt of• this evening may be saiti to leave been the most stirring end drama tic that had ever occurred to her. She had been almost as removed from ex- citement as a cloistered nun, and now, all at a hop and bonne as it were, she had been plunged into one of those crises, which may alter the course of a. whole life. She sat, with her hands locked to-' gether, her eyes downcast, recalling the scene, the faces of the town men, their voices, the oue so calm and serene in its consciousness of power and mastery, the other shrill, passionate, feminine ; then she put Captain Sherwin from her thoughts, and dwelt only upon the other man.

The color rose to her face as she remem- bered how he stood, his strong arms gripping the writhing figure of Sher- win. bis eyes turned to her with their grim smile, She had heard that he was bad and wicked, alto- gether unfit to speak to her. She felt sure her Iather would be dis- tressed when he knew that she had met the marquis, and how; and yet —yet though she tried to regret the meeting, though she repeated to herself all that she had heard said and hinted about him, she could not feel that contempt and virtuous ab- horrence witiclr she supposed she ought to have felt. There had been asomething In the handsome face, in the expression of the dark search- ing eyes, which had appealed to her womanly sympathy, and not in vain. If it yyas true that he was Wenced, she felt that it was equally true that he w'as unhappy. Not once nor twice only she had been the cloud descend upon his face, the shadow upon his eyes), a cloud which had one or two silver threads in the closely cut hair on the temples. A. moustache, cut in military fashion, oancealed the upper lip, but left the lower free to convey tale impression 'of a strong will indicated by the rest of the face. The eyes were dark also, and Elaine had found them pene- trating, but they were capable of expressing a brooding melancholy at that moment, and Elaine, with feminine instinct, knew that they could bo gentle. He was dressed in a by no means new suit of rough tweed. Captain Sherwin probably took him for a gamekeeper. Hie silence lasted only for a mo- ment then he looked up and seemed toe dispel the cloud which had fallen upon .him. "I 'hope you will not avoid the parr because I happen to be here," he said, as if no pause bad occurred. "It is not likely that I shall re- main many days, and while I ani here I will promise not to disturb your solitude. t will give orders that, excepting quite early in the morning, no one, I mean none of the woodmen or gardeners, shall some 'here. It shall be territory sacred to you, Mess Delaine." Elaine looked up earnestly. "Oh, Tao, please do not !" she said. "I—I could not accept that." "It isn't much; after all," he said, settle the rare smile. "The park is large enough to spare a few yards like these. I shall think yon have quite forgiven me, if ,rou will pro- mise to come here with your book eel you have been a.ceustomed to do. As I say, you may rest assured no one shall disturb you.

"Starch originated," he said, "In Flanders. It was introduced into England with the big ruff In the time of Queen Elizabeth. It was like our starch: of to -day, except that it was made in colors—red, yellow, green, blue. The effect of this was to tint delicately the white Iinen to which the starch might be ap- plied. "Before Queen .Elizabeth's time rifles and ruffs were made of fine Holland, which required no stiffen- ing. T,b'en the ruffs of cambric came and these must of necessity be starched." Tice grocer, consulting his memor- andum book, resumed : "It is recorded that ',when the queen lead ruffs made of lawn and cambric for her own princely wear- ing there was none in England could tell how to starch them, but the queen made special means for some women who could starch and Mrs. Gullitalia, wife of the royal coachman, was the first searcher: "In 1.56c1, a Flanders woman, Frau Van Der Neese, cane to London and established 'there a school for tho 'teaching of starching. The school succeeded. The Flanders frau got rich. She charged £5 a lesson and an extra 20 shillings for a re - repo for the making of starch out of wheat flour, bran and roots.
