Stratton had all the blinds aid
everything up a couple of days
after you left, Po that the plane did
not look very different. I met her
twice in the High Street, and I saw
her several timee eueploiouely near
to our lines. But after a hew days
she disappeared and I haven't seen
her since.'
'I wonder if she will give it up as
a hopeless case," said Ethel. 'You
see, we shall be very difficult to
trace out here. Wo have taken this
flat, furnished, for six months—the
name of the regular tenant is on
the board down stairs, and we told
the hall -porter not to pm onr name
on. So oven if she gets a notion
of going all round London, search-
ing every block of flaw, she may
come here and be no wiser. I hope
now that she will giveit up, for now
that she ie not on the scene Cosmo
is quite a different man.'
'No more bruises ?' Trevor asked
taking her hand.
'No more bruises—I told you at
the time he did not meau to do it.
4I0 is rough and boieterons and he
takes a good deal more than is good
for him—and—and—there are
other things. But he is not all bad
and sometimes he is as nice as can
be.'
'As nice as 1 em ?' half jealous
l''You ere foolish, Jack, very fool-
ish,' she said drawing her hand
away. 'You know the answer to
that question, so I shall not tell it
to you.'
'Theo why should you take your
hand away ?'
'Because it is better for you that
1 should.'
It is not better. It is better for
mo in every way that you should
leave your hand always in mine.
Oh l I know exactly what you
would say, but I am right.'
'Perhaps—but I don't think so,'
she answered. "But dont let tie
waete our time quarrelling over
trifles. Tell me, how much leave
you bailie.'
'My long leave—two months.'
'And what are you going to do 2
Where are you going ?'
'I am going to stay in Town.'
'In Town 2' incredulously.
'Of course. Where else should I
go 2'
'But I thought you would have
bests of invitations—that you
would be shooting and hunting,
and doing a round of country
bonitos.'
'Ttloueand thanks ; all the earns
I'm going to stay in Town, Oh, I've
had invitations—plenty of them—
but 1 don't know a greater bore than
country -hoose visiting. Besides,
I've done it for five years now ; I've
had enough of it. I'm going to en•
joy this leave.'
Ethel said nothing, but I eon -
fees that her heart fairly jumped for
joy, and she settled herself down
amongst the soft and silken pillows
of the lounge on which they were
sitting, with an air of intense satin -
faction, which was the prettiest com-
pliment that she could possibly have
paid the man who was watching her
every look and movement with fond
and jealous eyes.
'Bye the bye, how does Orumels
get on 2' he asked presently.
'Pretty well,' she Bald. 'Judge
takes him out every morning, unless
I happen to have him out with me.
Crumele ie always quite content to
be where 1 am.'
'Sensible Orumles,' exclaimed Tre
vor promptly. 'And how does Judge
appreciate London life ?'
'I think he likes it immensely,'
said .Ethel confidentially. 'You see,
Jack, we have no servants here of
our awn, excepting Judge and my
maid, they provide all the servants ;
we have nothing to do with them.
But I have my maid, who is rather
a prim and sour yoeug pereon, with
4i great ilea of being a beauty and
an immense idea of being very
stylish. Judge pretends—and I be-
lieve it is only pretending—to be
over head and heels in love with her.
Zelle is divided between looking
down upon Judge in every way and
not being able to resist his flatteries ;
and sometimes when my door is
open I can hear them ekirmiabiug
outside, and really it 18 most emus
ing, for Judge lays on the flattery
with a shovel, just as if he was try-
big
rying if he could see how much she
•can take without finding him out.'
'Perhaps ho really is gone on her,
poor chap,' suggested Trevor.
'I don't thiult so—I don't think
so. For instance, the other morn-
ing I was in my little boudoir writ
beg a letter ; I had not shut the
door after me and Zell° was in my
room, the door of which is just op-
posite the boudoir door. I hoard
Judge Dome along the passage and
knock at that boor. 'Yoe,Zeno
said, tartly.
"'Tia your itamble slave, Miss
Zelie,' ho said in a weak voice,
"would you be so very good and 80
kind as to ret mo go through this
'ere room to my master's droesing•
room 2'
'Go through the regular door,'
1 PIE BRUSSELS POST
answered Zello. 'I can't do with a
great ultlqgeolilerdr
dragoon in
my
mistresses
apartment.'
!The door is looked on the Inside,
sweet, blushing rose,' said Jud
more meekly still, 'Otherwise
shouldn't make se bold es to ventu
to tronblo my beautiful pearl.' '
'I,' esi l Mrs. Dennis, 'was nearly
choking with laughter,' but Zelle
most graciously opened the door and
lot him in. What passed after that
I don't know, but Zelle was like au
angel all the rest of the clay—just
lute an angel.'
'And is site a boeutitul pearl 2'
Jack asked.
'0111 frightful,' cried Ethel gaily.
It was wonderful how gay and
light of heard alio seamed. Then
she sent for Judge, who came
wooden faced, stolid and apparently
quite imperturbable, as if such
thought as 'sweet blushing roses'
and 'beautiful pearls' had never en.
tared his mind in all his life.
'Judge—Mr. Trevor is going to
stay to dinner,' his mistrees said.
Judge saluted Mr. Trevor, who
said, 'Well, Judge, how are yuu 2'
and told Mrs. Dennis that he would
attend to it.
'And wo are an going to tho
theatre this evening ; you bad better
go down to the bureau and see about
tickets, Where shall we go 2' she
asked of Trevor.
'Anywhere you please; it is all
new to me, you know.'
'Then we'll say the Haymarket—
they've got a lovely piece there, I
believe—Captain Swift. flee if you
can get stalls for the Haymarket,
Judge.'
'Yee, mum. 'Three stalls, mum ?'
'Yes—three stalls—or a box, but
not fur from the stage.'
'Very good, mum.'
Trevor laughed as he closed the
door. .'Judge must be a fine study
when he is making violent love of
blushing rose order. I wish I could
hear them without being seen. By
the bye, Ethel, have you got a
theatre ticket place here.'
'No, but they have a telephone in
the bureau. They find out any-
thing for you in a few minutes, in
any part of London. 011 l it is con-
venient living here, I can assure
you,'
'Very convenient for the Major's
club, and very convenient for my
rooms,' cried Trevor, laughing. 'And
that reminds me that it is half past
six now, and you and I both have to
dress. What time Is dinner ?'
'We had bolter say a quarter past
maven, or ,vo shall be so late, and I
do like to see the beginning of a play.
Cosmo is sure to be back in time
for that.'
And sure enough, within ten
minutes of Trevor's going away
Major Dennis Dame in. 'Ie Trevor
coming back ?' he asked.
'Oh, yes ; he has gone to dross.'
'Have, you got seats 2'
'Yes—for the Haymarket.'
'That's good. By the bye, I saw
Charley Ooventry at the club just
now—I'fn going to dine with him
to -morrow. You must get Trevor
to take you somewhere or other.'
'And who is ()hurley Ooventry 2'
'Charley Coventry --why, 'pon my
word, Ethel, I don't believe you've
ever met him. He used to be a great
pal of mine. We were at Eton to-
gether. Jolly chap, Charley ; 1 must
bring him to see you, one of these
days.'
Mrs. Dennis did not know it, but
the graes had been growing over
Charley Ooventry's grave for ninny
and many a long year ; but it is
oonveuieut sometimes to have a
friend whose engagements never
clash with yours, who will dine with
you anywhere at a moment's notice
and in Guy company yon like to
select, Major Dennis had not
thought of his old friend for many a
day, but he raked him out of his
quiet grave in the far-off Afrioan
forest to do duty as a blind, without
a moment's hesitation or compunc-
tion. Poor Charley Coventry—Oes-
mo Dennie had been his best friend
once—truly the ways of friendship
are wonderful.
She started violently and pulled
a r
the as f almost entirely over liar
face BO as to hide it from Ethel and
Trevor, who were loft standing to,
ge, gather,
I 'Do you over go out to supper after
re the tbsert° 2' he asked. 'If you do
will you both come and have supper
with me somewhere 7'
'No—Cosmo cannot bear these
public suppor•rooms—he never lets
me go to them ;' Ethel answered,
'thanks all the same. But you will
go back with us—we have a very
good supper room at the Flats.'
'Here's the carriage,' shouted the
Major from the doorway.
'Tho Plate,' echoed Valerie, 'I
have found him out at last 1'
(TO BE 00NTINUED
Wall, in due time Trevor returned
and the little dinner of throe passed
off quite as merrily as anyone could
expect under the circumstaucee, and
then they went off to the Haymarket,
where Ethel oat between the two
men in the stalls and cried over the
sorrows of Captain Swift until her
bee was all aflame and :ler eyes sore
with the sad salt tears—where the
Major went out between each act
and missed one altogether, and
Trevor sat still and quietly resisted
all temptations to go and see how
oeol it was outside, or to have "a
whiskey' and soda after all this
trig tdy,"
And when all was over and they
were passing out towards the halt,
hl:ejorDeunia turned back to Trevor
and said, 'Trevor, you take caro of
Ethel and 1'll find the carriage,'

brushed up against Mademoiselle
Valerie, who was just in the act of

TILE GUVPU W DER PLOT.
BY AIRS. JOG. GILMORE♦
To the Loyal Orangemen and Sister True
Blues assembled in Walton and else-
where this 6th of Nov., 1890, to
celebrate the discovery of the
Gunpowder Plot.
Loyal Orangemen assembled,
This fifth of November night,
To celebrate the victory
Over Popery's creel might,
Don't forget bo give the glory
To the God of Abraham's race,
And His all -protecting power,
Manifested by His grace.
In the overthrow of treason,
And the fiendish powder plan,
When England's king and her nobles
Were to perish ase man,
By the cruel hand of Garnet,
Ono of Rome's great Jewish hawks,
And his Papist aids and allies,w
Cateoby, Digby and Guy Faks.
Don't forget this, Orange brothers,
And, in giving God the praise,
Don't forget your good forefathers
Of those Fond, historic days,
Who gave favor, life and fortune
Up for freedom, home and God;
And for the Holy- Book, the Bible,
Defied Rome's cruel iron rod.
And in rendering to Jehovah
Praise and gratitude to -night
Don't forget, my Orange brothers,
Our martyrs of the holy light ;
When the Spanish great Armada,
With her thirty thousand men,
Came bo crush out young Britania,
And to kill her virgin Queen.
And when, seventeen years after,
Popery tried to seal the fate
Of England's Protestant Parliament,
As in fifteen hundred end eighty-eight
That God forsook us not, but rescued ;
Add when by us shall be forgot
This wonderful deliverance
Prom that fiendish gunpowder plot.
Bleok must bo the heart of treason,
Dark the powers of sin and shame ,
All unworthy of God's goodness,
Or a Christian's hallowed name. e
Must a Protestant be who never
Honors God, or blesses those
Who preserved us from oppression
And above all torture rose.
Let us then, my Orange brothers,
Ne'er forget the murdered throng,
Who suffered death in all its terrors,
Just one hundred thousand strong,
By the fearful inquisition,
And the cruel unjust decree,
Instituted by the opponents
Of true Christian liberty.
Phillip, Ring of Spain, and Sixtus,
Pope of Rome and Popery,
Who ordained that all should perish
Wbo refused to bow the knee
To Rome's Churches and her idols,
And her Romiah mummery ;
Thus our glorious martyrs perished
For religious liberty.
Let us waft a prayer to heaven,
Por their holy real, to -night,
And that God may keep and guide us
In their faith, and in the right ;
And, like them, that we may cherish
The religion of our Lord,
And, with them, prefer to perish
Bather than renounoe God's word.
And let us, like Greek historians,
Poeta, bards and muses, sing
All the wonderful deliverances
Gained for us by Ohrist our Ring.
When we sing the glorious triumphs
Of our God at the Red Sea,
In the wilderness and ab Jordan,
When He set His people free,
Let us Bing His later triumphs,
In the Armada's overthrow,
And in giving Roman treason
Such a nighty, fatal blow
By the Gunpowder Plot discovery,
Almost three hundred years ago,
And by Ring William's victory
Over the same ungodly foe.
And, my loyal True Blue sisters,
Let us ever faithful prove,
And be fearloso in maintaining
Liberty, and Truth, and Love
Por the Protestant religion,
And an open Bible, too,
And to God and one another
Lot as evermore prove true.
Standing by our Orange brothers,
Light the battles of the Lord
With brave hearts and hands united,
And, if needs bo, by the sword ;
For our Cod, our home, our loved ones,
We will stand up for onr rights,
And, like Gideon, c.me off conquerors
'Gainat all unholy Midianites.
Let 'No Surrender' be our motto
As wo oontond for victory
Lilco Deborah, nlarohing under God,
We'll make the oppressors flee ;
And we'll help to rout the traitors,
Who destroyed our God-given power
To Jesuits, Priests and Cardinals,
For Roman votes, hi an evil Hone,
With 'Go forward' for onr watohword,
And God's light to guide onr feet;
With the Gospel trumpet sounding,
Error and tyranny roust :retreat,
And we'll have a righteoue Party •
Br our Legislative halls, [nimble
And Remitted wrong and mime will
As ,w
we storm Jericho'sall.
Then wo'll have no privileged olassea,
And no poliliool serf or slnvo;
For t are 1 e th ifl l f

Noiseless so an angel's wing,
Vote out wrong and euperetitlon,
