out of t 'e world. Most fortunately for me,
Mis Pr etynian kept that beetle with a lit-

"1 k ievv that," replied Mre. Vincent
wit a s ort. " What a fool the woman
was!"
"Not such a fool as would appear at first
sigh , m da , and as the sequel will ipres-

made up th t liniment was, of course, on

"No, I am nbt—I won't be his wife—I

"Then you will break -an honest man's

Nancy turned, to leave the room—Phyllis
sprang after he', and took her hand,

and no one ever he ped me to do what was

Is it not better r him to have a little ain

Perhaps if I s v him, and I noticed how

John the truth."
"No, Phyllis, he will only take it from
your own lips." ,
"If that is t e case I will see him, but
you must be t ere. Will you help me,
Nancy? Will y u help me to get out of
this scra,pe ?"
"It seems to e," said Nancy, with POMO
heat, "that all 1 y life is spent trying to
get people out of crapes. I have just man-
aged to get Miss rettyman out of the moat
terrible dilemma, and now you come and
want me to do so ething which will break
the heart of my best friend. Oh, why, why
did John get to k ow people, out of his own
class of life?" ,
"That is what say," exclaimed Phyllis,
"I am not half g od enough for your John,
or any of your 8 iths. Farmer Smith told
me so himself to- ay. He said you Were all
a great deal abov me."
"Well, I think We are, Phyllis," said
Nancy, looking e lmly at her as she spoke.
"We could not dp the sort of thing which
seems common en ugh in your set. I am
glad we do nob b long to your set. And
now please, Phyll e, leave me, or rather
stay here, and I wilil go away. I do not at
all know if I shall help you, but .of course
you have the rig)t to come back to this
7
house which is your home. Miss Pretty-
man isnot well enough to be len alone, or I
should go,haek to the Priory."
"How is Miss Prettyman ?" asked Phyl-
l
is."Vere much better, but you must not
see her yet, for he can not stand any e
oitement."
"Then what im I to do ?"
"I am afraid I don't care—anything you
please."
Nancy walked out of the room as slae
spoke. She 4ocid for a moment in the outer
drawing•roo , then going to her bed -room
she put on he bat and jacket and prepared
to go out.
Phyllis' u expected arrival was not the

of John El it 's story.
It all flaitie before her with a confused

Poor Na cy felt nearly wild. The open-

situation as magnificently described, each

be deligh d, bat on Nancy's sensitive ears

standing on pinnacle of fame. All his
strongest bo es had been realized. The
other papers ere full of praise- of this ex-
traordinary a d brilliant venture. Some-
thing absolut ly fresh had been presented
to the, large world of reading men and
women. Ne svenders, advertieers, print-
