CHAPTER-XXVII.
T e girls oft th Priolry often said after
ware e that t ey ould not make out why
they stayed a vake that night. As a rule,
thes healthy an hap.y girls slept the bleep
of t e just fr m t a in ment they laid their
heads on thei pillows until the dawn of
day. Soon fter thae they each of them
wer stirring, for Agn s, Polly, and Alice
had each of them Choi duties to perform.
Agnes was her m : ther a right hand, and had
to s perintend al household arrangements-
Al.'tc- had th aha ge o the dairy, and Polly
of t.e pou.tr an ga den. On these fine
sumer mom ings, the efore, to be out and
abo t at five o'elc ek w• s nothing to these
you . g wo e "hey were sound asleep be-
fore ten in tl e ev nin • , and to be up and at-
tend ng to t eir o uties at five was the na-
tura thin •; t do. Th: consequence of this
earl ricin• as, how ver, sound and un-
brokcn ale p duri.g t.e hours devoted to
slum er. It was ther fore wonderful, more
than Won er ul, t at on this thirtieth of
Jun:, 18 , hey shout all three have felt
wak • ful a • d esti as, and in consequence
were dresse aid d wnstairs when the
eigh -day 1 ek i. the kitchen pointed to
half -;.sat f . •
E: ch gi 1 s she appeared apologized to
the . there fo her presence.
" t ea e ver me to the night," said
Poll , " the Sukey, ,he yellow clucking
hen, a ad ma e a mistake in the number of
days she is h tohing that last brood of eggs.
You know t ose rare eggs' that we bought
from Hanov r last -week. I am positively
convinced th t the chieke will be out to -day
instead cif to morrow, and so-so I have got
up to see."
" It is ver at ange," said Agnes, " but I
am positivel co vinoed that Keziah (she
alluded to the ne kitchen -maid) does not
burn these pot to parings. I think she
gives thein tc her brother on the sly, and I
thought I'd elet u and look myself."
" Oh dear, dear," said Alioe,with a yawn,
I neve hat such a. bad night ; I dreampt
that the hu n was bewitched, and do whet
I would he utter would not dome, and I
thought oh and Nancy and a strange girl
with dar ey a were trying to bring the
butter, t rn nd turn about, but not one of
them cou d g t it to come, althought the
strange g rl s ng a chant over it which she
said wout a t as a charm. Positively thfe
dream m de a so restless that I got up -I
could not sta d my bed any longer."
" Welk" s id Polly, " the day is a glori-
ous one, its f rbetter to be up than l.ia.bed
but as our dr tt ms were only dreams,and the
world is jogg ng along quite at its usual
pace, let's go ottt for a walk before the mo-
ment arrives hen we must set-to at •fur
daily work." -
" Catch m gping until I light the kitchen
fire, and put the kettle down for a oupi of
tea," said A nes. "'But you can trot along
girls, and I ill follow you when I have
done.":
So while old ib1r. and Mrs. Smith slept
peacefully ins the foul• -post bedstead upstairs,
Polly and Al ce started off for a run up the
avenue, and gnes stayed behind -to prepare
tea for her si tern and herself.
The girle 1 ft the kitchen door wide open
behind them and thus, when John Smith
and Phyllis artindale, weary and dishevel-
led from the r journey across country in

scene, they a w! to their astonishment that

and to wish herself back in conventional

once again. 1
Even she knew, however, that it was now
too late to recede. , She hung, ';therefore,
listlessly on ohn'e arm, and walked over
the, dusty roa�ds,-feeling faint, anlooking
draggled an tired, and with a great deal of
her really ree arkable beauty obscured for
the time be, rig. ,
As to poo' John Smith himself, • he really
wondered i the world was ever coming
right again.
" People will think I've elope with
Phyllis," he murmured to himself. " What
will my father and mother say t me ?
What will they thin of this esu pade ?
Well, I must make the best of matters now
for her, poor little de: r, and`of course I love
her with all nay hear and soul. Hullo.!"
he exclaimed joyfally as Polly and Alice
suddenly appeared r. and a corner. Polly
was holding a leaf fill d with fresh gathered
strawberries in her ha:. d, and was helping
herself and Alice alt;rnately to the ripe
berries.
" Why, l?hyllis,' e claimed John, ' there
are my twotsieters. aney their being up
at this hour!; how 1•icky, how splendid.
Now you will he all ri • ht, my darling, fcr
hey'll put you to bed and fuss over you
nd pet you+ to your h :art's content."
Phyllis had uever +hitherto cared` to be
uased over end petteby girls. She was
o weary now, howeve , and so thoroughly
shamed of herself, th t she was willing to
ubmit to any kindne..s, and -accordingly,
hen the giels, with c ice of astonishment
ushed up, Ore received their salutations
raw ously enough.
" Here we are, Poll " said John, " here

The farm r too was feeling considfr

dark lashes lying on the ros cheeks,
the tendrils of lovely clerk ha r falling

all during each lo g moment as
re. Vincent poured her anathe-
mas and her horrible forebodings on Miss
Prettyman's head.
" Its you who have done it," said Mrs.
Vincent. "I believe it is a plot -I believe
that you know where that girl has gone.
She was put into your . care as a sacred
charge, and I insist -yes, I inriist-on your

" Mamma, Miss Prettyman does look so

" Don't you think I might go hom , mam-

Daisy obeyed, and the next mornent the
servant announced Lord Ashtead.
Mrs. Vincent instantly put en her most
gracious and company manners. She
thought with satisfaction of the unopened
note,?written by this young me, which, at
that critical moment, repolsed 'in her
Lord Ashtead had .11, languid man-
ner, and a prolonged tlravil. He
was a man who took little or no interest
in any living creature except hiniself, and
in consequence was profoundly uninteresting
to hie fellowmen. Mrs. Vincent, howevert
received him with " embarassment," and in-
stantly took upon herself the manners of
hostess for his benefit.
" How is Miss Martindale ?" • he drawled
out, presently. Hope she's not awfully
tired 'with her walk."
" Dear Phyllis, not at all," said Mrsi
Vincent.. " The child has wonderftl
strength and spirit."

" Certainly not," said Mrs. Vificenti
She had not an idea who Phyllis was with;
but hoped to draw out Lord Ashsead to exi.

continued, " although Phyllis has a very
fragile and refined appearance, she is a very
hoyden of strength, and Mr.--"
" Smith," said Lord Ashtead, " Smith -e

happen to know him."
.." Oh, John Smith, her country cousin,"
said Mrs. Vincent, " a good fellow, very.
Rather a boor, of course, but what could
you expect. He's like a brother to our
naughty girl, and she will take walks with
him when he comes to town."
" Very-er-brotherly, no doubt," said
Ashtead. There was an expressio in his
eyes Which pleased Mrs, Vincent, for she
saw that he was jealoue of Smith.
" Is Miss Martindale too-er- atigued
after her walk with bee-er-country-er-
brother to put in an appearance ?" he asked,
" I am so sorry," said Mrs. Vincent, "but
I'm afraid she is. She has had a. headache,
and is lying down. It was you who sent
her that lovely basket of Formes, was it not ?
The dear girl has taken them to her bede

But Lord Ashtead's vanity was scarcely
soothed by this audaci us lie, and a moment
later he took his leave with a decidedly
huffed expression on his face, [
As soon as ever he left the hens° Mrs.
Vincent turned to Mimi Prettymme.
" Matters are ' in extremis," she ex-
claimed. " I believe that wieked girl has

" Mr. Smith is taking care of me-den't

written in the telegram.
" Well, after that !" exclairned Mrs. Vin-
cent. " Letitia, of course my niece must
be taken from you after this. The' girl has
ruined her life -her reputation is destroyed.
