"Yes, from the gutter!" said Mar - daunt Royce. `The lad that sold match- es and trod the London pavement with bare feet has proved too much, even in his ruin.. for all of you!" and he laid his hand upon the door. As lie did so Miss Mazurka said, aott- ly and amiably: "One moment before you go, Mr. Royce, please!" lie turned to her with a smile. "Not satisfied ALP" he said. "Not satisfied even yet!" she retort- ed, still with the same suspicious ami- ability. "You are so clever a gentleman that we are really loath to lose you—" "Let Idea go, for Heaven's sake!" broke in Bettie, impatiently. "The sight of him nearly drives me mad!" "Oh, let him wait a minute, please," said Miss Mazurka. "Mr. Boyce, you were kind enough to taunt me just now with my stupislity—" "Oh, pardon me!

And how' have you proved your cleverness?

"Theg you happen to find out something about this will and try to get poseesgon of bliss Ormsby --and to do that all the more safely, you play off a little triok, as comMon on the stage as it is in real life, and pass off some poor unknown girl who drowned herself as the heirese.

CHAPTER NM There was a short silenee after they had departed, for each of those who rc mained was wondering what would be- come of them. Then Beale went up to Joan, who badesunk into a chair and was sitting with downcast eyes and knitted breitss. "I am afraid you scarcely realize what all of this means to you, Mise Ormsby," he said, gently. • Joau started at the sound of her eeal mune. "I don't," she said, with a little eigh and gesture of wonder, "It -it all eeems like a dream. I know that I am Joan Ormsby, but I did not know that I was keelated to the, Earl of earrowfield. Is it .true?" "It is quite true," said Bertie, grave. ly„ "Thanks to Miss Mazurka, 'who has 'worked out her plot liko the firstselase strategist she is, we are in posseasion of full , particulars. kiss Mazurka has been working for weeks past, in con- junction with a sltarp young lawyer, and, she has not only succeeded in out- witting that -Mr. Mordaunt Royce, and getting posseseiou of the will, but she has proved Our identity as Lord Ar- eowfieid's granddaughter." "It is strange -strange," said Joan, thoughtfully, sadly. "I am the grand- daughter of an earl!" "Yes,". said Bertie. "Look back. Try and rementber is far back as you can. Your mother----" "I don't remember my mother," said Joan, the tears welling- up into her eyes. "She died when I was a baby. My father I remember slightly. Ho died when 1 'Ives a child, and consigned me to the taro of Colonel He-tho colonel -did not know 'who it was that my father had married. I never heard the name of Lord Arrowfield in connec- tion witlx that of my parents." "But that is easily explained," said Bertie. "Your mother was the daugh- ter of the earl's wife, from Nvhom he had parted, from no fault of hers; poor lady. 1 think that your mother was in fgnorance of her relationship to the Arrowfields. Perhaps your father did Ir et know it, but irhe (lid he was too !spend to claim kin with the wicked old earl who kad cut off and deserted his - wife.

At any rate, he did you justice al- most at the last ntoment." "Why did he hide the will?" asked Joan, gazing ne the fateful piece of pa- per. Lord Bettie fled: his head. "Who can say? Be was an eecentrie man, and old :men uever show their ec- tentricity more palpably than where a will is concerned. Perhaps he Mistruet- ed old Craddock and wished to hide the will.

But for her she would hav�. been tied to Itfordaunt Royce for lifet "I will leave everything to you," she continued; "Indeed, I should not know what to do, I am so confused and be- wildered--" "All right!" said Miss Mazurka, cheer- fully. "Then that's a bargain, isn't it? Lord Bartle and I are to play this hand out, as he'd put it, and you trust yourself to us. That is, you will do nothing without consulting us? It is a good deal to ask, Miss Ormsby." "It is not too much!" avid Join, fer- vently; "and 1 promisee'. "All right," stud Miss Mazurka; "then I think we'd better go now, My lord, Miss Ormsby must be worn out; she's had a trying time of it, But sire's in good bander Miss Emily will look after her." They came up to Joan to say good night and Joan held Lord Bertie's hand. and pressed it gratefully. Then she extended both to Miss Ma- zurka, and obeying an itnpulse, she drew her towards her and gently kissed her forehead. "I wish you every happiness," she whispered. "What do you mean?" demanded Miss Mazurka. "I mean when you are marriea to Lord 'Villiers," murmured Joan, steadilyl - Miss Mazurka flushed hotly, then turned pale. "Oh, thauk you; yes,. I see. I hope I shall be happy when I marry him," she said, dryly. Then the two went, Bertie taking the will with him, and Emily and Joan were lett alone. "And you are a great lady after all!" seid Emily, standing beside the sofa up- on which Joan had dropped wearily., "1 ttlways knew it would conte somehow - more than a plain Miss Trevelyan. And you ere an Honorable, and with all ties looney! Well, I am very glad." and she tried to smile, but her eyes filled with Nitre and her lips quivered.

"There, your words have answered yoe!" aaid Joan. 'Why do you call out Miss Ormsby, and look at me like that? Oh, Emily, do you think all this that has happened will niake any difference between us?" she riaid, reproachfully. Emily colored, and eyed her sideways, eagerly, wistfully. "Well, of course, it muet make a dif- fetenee. I'm only a burlesque tictress, as Miss Mazurka said, andyou—" "Just Ida Trevel,yen, of the Coronet, and yoti, dear sister, now and always!" said .loan, putting out her beautiful atins and drawing the mite on to the sofa beside her. "What! You think that I ant so mean and cold-blooded as to give nip all my friends because of this-- thils hateful money!
