It was just three years after her mar- riage with Aliut Stacey that Pdary came down stairs cite morning into the long, low celled dining room where breakfast was awaiting her. She received the noisti greeting of the rough haired ter- rier with a kindly pat on the head, stooped and ruined the fur of the.great Angora cat as be lay before the theerful the She turned to the manservant when he came in. , "Oh, John, Mr. Stacey has a head- ache this morning, the worst he itas had for months.

She was not worried or upset at her husband's in- disposition, because he was a man who had all -his life suffered occasionally from violent headaches, and he declared that since his marriage they had been ranch less frequent than formerly. She helped herself to 001310 kedgeree and opened one by one the pile of letters beside her plate smiling over their contents now and then, as if she found the news they contained pleasant.

The sailing ssel, find- ing herself driven very near, put in to renew her stores of water and, to the astonishment of the captain and crew. discovered three men and a dog in pos- session of the island. The were the captain and two of the crew of the ill fated steamshipeArikhapia, ho, after drifting about in an open boa for many weeks and suffering unheard of priva- tions, had found theraselves t ssed upon this faroff strand, which ha been, to them so long allying grave.

The whole account e ded with details of how the three men _ ad wept like madmen on meeting their rescuers, and the concluding senten es said: "When we tell our readers hat Cap- tain Conway had only been arried a few months when he set on on the Arikl3ama's last ill fated voya e, it will easily be understood that his a zloty to have news of his wife was ov rpower- ing.

She who had been for three bless- ed years Alan Stacey's honored aud de- voted wife must be outcast—eutcastl She repeated the word over and over again to herself, as if to try by repeti- tion to din its meaning into her bewil- dered brain. Could it be true? Yes. That heading gill stared at her—"Sur- vivors of the Ariklaama." She had read the account, There was Edward Con - way's name, It was all true—too true. And up stairs, ill and prostrate, lay the man who had come to be all the world Ito her, the man who had taken her, poor and alone as she was, and made her the mistress fd his heart and of his home, And he was ignorant! She would ihave to tell bim—to tell him that she iWas not 'his wife, to tell him that she Iwas the wife and not the widow of the .man who had bought her with a price, who had outraged her, who bad struck .And he had told that story of how he had been only a few months married to a young wife! She wondered bitterly whether he bad told them that be had so far forgotten hie marriage vows that be bad struck the young wife In those early dafs of their marriage? Three years—three yeara—three wholly bless- ed years without one sad thought, with- out one harsh word, without one regret; `three years of - ptire and unalloyed hap- piness. Well, she would always have that to look back to. Perhaps she ought 'not to grumble or to be surprised that !fate had been minded to bring her hap- pinees to an end. It was like the regis- tration of sunshi6 in London. Some People got a little happiness filtered out in driblets over along life of great dull - 'MSS.

Then, from some woman's instinct of hiding the tragedy through which she was passing, oho rose and earried the_paper to the fire and stood there reading an account ed the fancy dress ball given by the lady mayorees of Lon- don—aye, and reading it attentively. They bad been present thereat. Her dress was described—her dress and Alan's—almost side by side with the words which told of the rescue of the survivors of the Arikharna. Then John betook himself away, and she was once more left alone She form- ed no plans, her dazed brain refused to take in anything more than the stern and bare facts. Edward Conway was alive—on his way home—eager and anxious to find her. And she was here, in the old Fulham house, masquerad- ing to the world, as Alan Stacey's hon- ored wifel And Alan would have to be told! He would have to see the papers; he would have to decide where- Ate was to go, what she was to do, how she could best hide herself' from the monSter who had legal right over her, She was still sitting there, when 11 strokes of the clock warned her that the morning was passing -- when they should have warned her, for Mary did not MVO from her place beside the fire, Then a smart housemaid came in with a message, 14Please, ma'am, master is much bet- tor, and if you have quite done with the paper he would be glad if you would send it up stairs to him." CHAPTER XIIL THE BURNED NEWSPAPER., Mary's first instinct was to carry the paper up stairs to Alan Stacey herself to break the news to him there and them But hard upon the heels of this thought came anotb.er—that he was but jiTht over a very violent headache, and it would be cruel to tell him that moment, She therefore whisked out the middle page and gave the rest of the paper to the maid. "Tell Mr. Stacey that I will ciame up in a few minntes," she said. When the servant had left the room, her first thought was how ehe could best conceal that part of the paper from Alan, Then she ran to the door. "Alice, Alice, come back!" she call- ed. "Give me the paper. will go up to Mr. Stacey myself." But she did not go up at once. She turned back into the dining room and deliberately tore the fiheet containing the telegram across, so that the corner where the acconnt of the rescue of the survivors of the Arildnuna had been was gone. This she threw into the fire, Then she went up the wide shallow stairs and turned in at her bedroom door. "My dear boy," she said in a tone as. much like her natural voice as snpreme effort could make it, "I really don't think that you ought to be reading the newspaper, particularly lying down in bed. Let me read to you." She sat down by the fire with her back to the light. Alan Stacey lay back among his pillows idly enough. "I don't care about reading, so lodg as you'll sit there and talk to me," he said lazily "Is there anything in the "No -o; an account of the ball last night, with our noble names in the paragraph. All the rest is pretty much as usual." She glanced down the day by day column, gave him a list of all the Ream of news that might in any way serve to interest him, and after that they talked for a little while, and then Alan Stacey said that he might as well get np as lie idling there, and Mary went down stairs again, carrying the paper in her hand; carrying also her burden with her; carrying with her the knowledge and the conviction that he would have to be told; that she must What shrunk your woolens ?

Then she remembered that if she told him Alan would naturally ask to see the paper containing the news. But she bad burned it! She felt—so strangely are we moved by trifles in times of great difficulty—that she could not en- dure to let him know that ber first thought had been to hide the trnth from him. Then how was she to ac- count to him for having destroyed that part of the paper'? Should she send out and get another copy? She did Dot like to do that, nor did she like to go her- ' self—it would look so strange, And then the -dm-tight came to he.r: Why tell him at all? Why say anything about it? Why break tip and destroy their intense happiness? Nothing could be wider apart than the lives led by Edward Conway and Alan Stacey's wife. Why admit that she had seen the news that part of the crew of the Ari- khama had been rescued? Just now, when Alan was showing signs of over - `work and abaut to take a holiday, it Would be cruel to deal him such a blow. A few weeks longer in her sunshine would make no difference to anybody but herself. Alan would never know— Edward Conway need never knew— that she had, been aware all along that three men belonging to the Arikhama had been rescued off an. uninhabited island in the Pacific ocean. Why should eke say anything? Why should she not at least let Alan finish his. book—the greatest book be had ever done—take his. holiday, and, If the blow fell then—why, he would be the better prepared to meet it. It would be ba& enough if Ed- ward Conway discovered her and the secret conld not be kept any longer. Having thus made up het mind to keep the news which. had reached her to herself, she acted immediately. She destroyed the torn sheet of the paper and . thrust the part which remained careleesly into the rack with the other journals, trusting to her own wit ito keep Alan frOln Viking tO look at it during the day. It was an off day with the young lady who typed. to her dicta- tion, SO that she was free a any tie of work. She set herself to do some nee- dlework in 'order that she might look oe- cupied when Alan made his appearance and she sat near the window stitching industrionsly, while her ailed went over aed over again such ehreds of self justification as she could find to salve her conscience. She told herself that it W119 not as if she had gone into an ir- regnlar union with her eyes open. She bad truly and honestly believed herself to be Edward Convtay's widow, and her marriage with Alan was her real marriage. What was it they said? "I require and charge you both, as ye will answer at the dreadful day of judg- ment, when thetsecrets of all hearts shall -be disclosed, if either'of you know' of any impediment why ye may net law - from the dull depression which Beemed Edward Conway's survival to herseld ye do DOW confess it."
