The equire was watching him curiously. • Clara stood on the hearth looking thoughtfully into thil fire, until she suddenly tilted ker face and darted en. inquisitive glance at Francesca: She, of all present, seemed quite un - disturb by the Jotter. That Dick should get a letter from Mexico was natural enough, she scarcely consid- ered the eircunistance; but as sol as the current of the conversation changed, her Mind went voluntarily been to the channel in which it, lov- ed best, to move and to spequlate. Would Lancelot in any way hefr of his mother's death? Would it' bring him. home? She had a hope that Doctbr Thorpe knew where Lancelot was.. Surely he would write to him? In a few minuVs she began to re- member that Ade might meet Lan- eelot—that he might even try to find him, Looked at on' the map Mexico did not seem such a very large cour- try, • and she had an idea that Dick had some unusual power or kflpence 'there. , loo.ked up at Dick. Re was talking to Loida and Clara in an' excited manner, The squire had gone to see Toro beyond temptation. He knew the gypsy's fingers stuck tp a bridle. And yet he liked the brown Antinous. He had been born on Atherton meow and wa.s, in fashion, one of his. people. "Come, Toro, I will walk to the gate with you," he said kindly, touching the gypsy on the shoulder. "Too much honor for the poor per- son, squire." But Toro put hie fiddle in its green baize bag, and laughing rose. "Doctor Dyson ' says you bought his horse ---a bad brute he is," "No, no, squire—badly managed. I know a horse the minute r see him, temper and everything. The doctor's horse is quiet with me." "Why.. did • you walk into poor Hodgson's hen -house, Toro?" "Did squire?" •"Yes. Why?" "Because he is poor. I do not spare the poor person because he has little. No one is poor but them God hates. That is the Romany creed." "It is' a, wicked one. You premised, If hen I gave you a bit of land, to stay on it." ot"The dog Vitio travels about finds bones, squire." "Are you sending your boys and girls to school?" "In the highways and byways. Good -night, and good luck to you, squire.- Did you fear would put •dras in your mangers? None of us would hurt Atherton or Atherten's horses." - "I know you do not -wish to, Toro; but sometimes the devil—"' .4:The 'good baron,' squire, must have the good word. Ile xnay be at our elbow." • "Speak for yourself, Toro." ! But the squire la.ughed, and let the gypsy pass through the gate with the laugh, and as he turned toward the house the whole interview slip- ped from his mernory like a vagrant thought. He felt a sudden melan- choly asseil him, and he quickened his footsteps and gladly re-entered the house. In the parlor 'Clara, Loi - da and Dick were standing together on the hearth -rug, talking with great animation; but Francescans face was upturned to the group with a sha- dow of pain upon it. "Well, Dick, is it to be Mexico again?" "Yes, squire. and at once. Loida is going with me." , "That is a nonsenical 'thing, Dick. It isn't a. jOurney fit fpr a woman at all." "Rashleigh, it is a lovely jonr- ney," said Clara. "There is no dan- ger whatever., and -very little discom- fort. If You were not so full of business about the mill, should ask you to take me also. What a splendid party it would be!" S'quire Atherton looked at his wife as a mother looks at a child .NV ho erica for the moon.

NO MINUSES- REQ UIRED danger or discomfent in: that?one Rastneneenre did othin of the kind, Clara. •"'We certainly did, whether you .ovr it or not. You were so Eng- lish—so rampantly English — all through France and Germany, so tretnendously Church -of -England in Rome, that any sensible cosmopoli- tan, any lover of human natnre in in Time. all its charming variety, must have felt chafed and restricted. I did. But as fast as my intelligence blam- ed, my heart excused you. For, upon the whole,. Rashleigh, you were a most unselfish, delightful traveling companion. I only hope Loida may tind Dick as really effective and -sens- ible as you were. It is not likely, though.", And she gave Dick a deprecating sigh, and turned to her husband with the smile which always won her way to Hs heart—which always put his wishes or his will under the feet of her least desire. Loida had grown quite enthusiastic during the discussion.. The squire looked at her heightened color and shining eyes with amazement. A year ago, a journey so far and so hurried would have been to, the deliberate, methodical Englishwoman like a Jour- ney into an open grave. Now she was absolutely at Dick's desire. "She could be ready in a week, in half a week, in twenty-four hours, if necessary." "There is no time to lose. eirir eaid Dick to the squire. "From what I learn, an English company propose to buy the mine,. in which I still holda controlling interest, It will be a great thing for me. I shall then have all my money in England. I can leery land; I can build a new house, and take the place in the county that I desire to toke." And this last argument was one that always appealed to the squire, He was at once satisfied. "Will you be long away, Dick?" "Not longer than half a year, and, as Mrs. Atherton says, it will be a ' delightful trip. Loida will enjoy ev- ery hour of it. It is time the dear little woman saw something of the World she lives in." "And what of your mother, Dick?" asked Francesca. "What is to be done for nfrs. Alderson? How will she like your going away, and to Mexico Again?" "There was a tone of reproach in Francesca.'s voice.. At the moment it annoyed Dick. * "I have not forgotten mother," he said, "and mother nevet puts herself • before My interest. The letter went to Alderson, and she, seeing it was from Mexico and marked 'Immedi- ‘‘IT SAVED MY LIFE" HAW A FAMOUS' MEDICINE Mrs. Willasen Tells How She Triad Lydia E.

Then the details of t•his -journey furnished a long and interesting dis- cussion. Clara knew so much about New York, and Dick knew • nothing ateall; so all Clara's directions and aticeo - s were to enter in his Rocket- bk. Dick knew everything about -Mexico, but all his propositions were to discuss by the fresh element of womanly taste and requirements. And there are matters which require more time to discuss than to realize; it took Loida about three hours to resolve to take one trunk: only with her; it did not take one hour to pack that trunk. It was aIreedy morning whe "good -nights" were said, and ther was little senSe of rest, even then, i the house. Francesca, on reaching he own room, could not find heart t unclothe herself. There was a harde look on her lovely face than it ha ever known before; and perhaps 't wad not unreasonably there.

How blind, how stupid1 am not to have thought of the Plan last night." • "No, 'Francesca; the plan was one entirely out of your mental horizon: If a- girl has been taught she must, _not see beyond her own. four walls, she is hardly likely to suppose she can see across the. Atlantic, I was taught to believe that the Whole world and tho fullness thereof was mine:" "0 Clara, you give me such good hope! I feel happy—happier than I have felt foe .such a long time. I •must get up: I cannot rest. I wish breakfast was over. Would it do to speak to father before breakfast?" _Clam thought it would be better to postpone the great question till the squire had got a good hold of him- self, and was in a mood to regard the subject from his usual views, so that there would be no after -disput- ing. Then, with a few brave, kind words, she left the girl to think the matter over in her own heart. T.he subject was not an entirely new one to Francesca. Many times such a project had flashed across her mind, but it had appeared too chimerical, too surrou.aded with insurmountable difficulties to entertain or consrder. It came and went like a. flash, with- out apparent reason or result; But now it appeared to be the most rea- sonable of projects, and this change of feeling in some Singular way in- fluenced her physical bearing and ap- pearance.e In that hour the touch which renioves immaturity was giv- en; she looked no older, but she did look more perfect. When she went to the squire's room after breakfast, she went with a step and an air as yet new to herself; she went as a suppliant indeed, but as a suppliant conscious of rights. ,The squire was smoking, and read- ing his newspaper. Francesca's pre- sence was never an intrusion; he smiled to her over the top of The Leeds Mercury, and finished the edi- torial he was reading. Then he look- ed again at his daughter. and said: "Art thou come to talk to me, love'?" "Yes. father. I want to go- with' Dick and Loida, .and so I came to ask your permission." "I never heard tell of such a thing! Does thou know what thou art say- ing? My love, it means crossing three thousand miles of stormy water, and, . for aught I know, as many more miles wheri thou gets On the other side of the world. It means living with strange people, and sleeping in strange beds, and eating all manner and makes of strange- dishes. From -all that I ever read, or heard tell, when thou does get to Mexico thou wilt be in a 'country where no life is safe. Fighting and talk of fight- ing is all chdt goes on:" "Dick and Loida will take care of , ,"Happen they will, and» they will not be able to take themselves. Surely thou art enrnest?"

You we'l"Tiy, be sure 1 know—I know too "I think if I went with Dick and Loida, the sea -would do. me good. It would make Inc mentally arid phy- siceIly stronger. When X get to Mexico, I will see that Dick looks af- ter Lancelot. I do not think Captain Benton ever did anything but spend money. I do tot think Lancelot is dead; but if I myself can And out nothing, then I shall know it is so. That would be a great point. e One can learn to accept the inevitable. It (is the alternations of hope and. de- spair that kill." . "To be sure,. If Lancelot is found, what then?" I , "I shall ask him to come home," "Thou wilt not marry him, and tay In. Mexico? That would fairly 14:111 xrie," "I will not." "Because thou knows thou art my only cleild; thou art Lady of Ather- ton Manor; thou could not leave thy father and thy home and thy land, and the duty thou owes to each and all, just to please thyself. -FThou ce-tocaul.d,, not do a thing like that, "I could not be Francesca Atherton and do i such a thing. Lancelot must come back home if he wants to mar- ry me. If he Will not come home for xny ,sake, do you think I will wrong you and every one that loves me, and. that looks to me, for his sEtke? No, father. I will then give him up forever. I will come home to you." "And then. thou • wilt worry and fret thy life out." o "I will be a good daughter. 1 Win. then do all you wish me to do." - "God love theel I will make no bargain' with my own dear little lass. If I let thee go, I will let thee go freely; for no matter how things turned, I could not press a bargain With thee. Could I, Francesca?" "No, my father. You would less your last hope first." '- - "Now, then, listen, and don't thee be put out at what I say. I must help thee to look at every side of so important a question It means so much to so many. Maybe then thou wilt find Lancelot easier than .-thwe. thinks for. Maybe thou wilt hardly know the man whom thou haat loved so truly. He has been living in one, kind of way, and thou bast been liv- ing in another kind of way. Perhaps thou wilt rneet an altogether differ- ent Lancelot to the. image thou has nursed in thy own fond heart—a Lancelot thy high, pure nature could tnhoatolo„ve and could not trust. What would thou do in such a case as . "If he came back to England must I not keep my word? I nave no fear of Lancelot changing for the worse." "Keep thy word? Not always. Cir- cunastances alter cases. It is pretty easy to do blundering wrongs .under the name of truth and honor." "I never heard you talk in. such a way before, father."

Now, then, ‘ ' don't thee stand to a foolish pro- mise, but get off the burning deck of an unhappy marriage without :wait- ing for any orders but thy own. As Clara said: `If that boy Casablanca had been a better sort- of a hero, he would have known when to act under • orders and when to use his own com- mon. sense.' There .is a nobler way than mere stupid obedience. Nelson refusing to see his admiral's signal at the battle of Copenhagen was a bit of disobedience that meant glori- ous victory. My dear lass, there is a deal of be -praised Casabiancahm in this world, and there is no worse orm of it than sticking to the pro- ise of Et marriage that has become unsuitable and is like to be unhappy. There Would be more honor and truth in keeping off that kind of a burning deck than. in. standing by it. So if Lancelot found is not all thy fancy has painted bit., just issue fresh orders to thyself. But I have not Said yet that I would let thee go at all. I must talk to Clara about it. I do not know what she will say to such a move. I will tell thee plainny it is a very great trial to me only to think of parting with thee. 13ut, my dear, I would lay my hands -under thy feet to make thee happy. It must be something more than xny own feelings that says 'No' to any wish of thine." And, of course, Clara combated all doubts and fears and eeluctancea with- a tact that left the squire with- out a single reasonable opposition. She would not admit that the cus- toms and traditions of other ladies of Atherton ought in any' way to control Francesca's life. Francesca lived in a different period, surround- ed by changing ideas and by changed circumstances. Old models would not fit her conditione; she was compelled to order her life to its own individu- ality. As for danger, Clara would not admit the possibility. She had been a great traveler; many ladies of her acquaintance had traveled still mom. Slight inconveniences there might be, but it would lye good for Francesca to have her thoughts di- verted from the loss of her lover to little physical inconvenienees. "You know, squire," she said, "how pressing and absorbing such trials can be; for I once saw you fret for a whole week about the loss of your shaving-soap—on. your wed- ding -trip, toot' "She may come across that young rnan, Clara.
