. that night for - the first time in .
many weeks, and not the faintest car',
. or misgiving troubled her rand for th
future; she had taken her .fortune into
her own hand; the fear of dependence '
was removed, and life had ceased to be .
a burden..
Judith reached the depot just in tim
to enter the car beforeit Started,and one
rapid glance at the many passenger
proved herself the ..only lady present
- so, quietly taking the nearest seat t
the door; she turned, her baok to th
other passengers and sou'it became ob
livioue of them and all surroundings 1
the absorbing iaterest : ot her own
thoughts. .
The city was many. Miles bebin
when Judith finally lifted.- her eyes, and
as she did. so, enCountered those of two
young men, reflected by the mirror in
• frouterf her; they were several seats
back, and judging from dress and ae-
. coutremette, were evidentlyTbent• on a.,
. hunting expedition. Turning her head
.. immediately, Judith opeued .a. book she
had brought for .entertainment mid be-
gan to rend; the story failed to hold
leer attention, however, and raising. her
• face after a short interval, she once
more net the gaze of the two pair - of
eyes behind -her. Thoroughly aunoyed
and provoked at herself and the
straugers„. Miss Allen resolutely retun-
ed to the book on her lap, and per-
sistently kept her thoughts fixed upon
it until the stations that were called
warned her she .was • near her journey's
end.
All at once thick darkness -enveloped
the car, and a cloud of -smoke eutered
her openwindow that was almost suffo-
cating in its densitY ; the wood being
warped and the catch stiff, jadith rose
to her feet to lend her. efforts • more
• strength at remedying the evil, wh.en,as
.ehe did so, a hand suddenly rested on
her shoulder.: a beard touched her
cheek, and a kiss- dropped silently on
her forehead.; the window • -went down
with a crash, and the next instant the
opening and closing a the door and a
• rush of air and smoke through the
car proved that some one 'of the passen-
-gers had made a hasty exit. Overcome
with contending emotions, surprise,
alarm and passionate indignation, Zue
&Oa sauk back into her seat with lock-.
ed hands and rigid lips, fairly stunned
' . by the daring indignity she had just re-
ceived. Her first:impulse was to burst
into tears, but exerting, strong self -con-
- trot,she quickly tied a heavy veil over
her agitated face, and remained so
...
quietly composed that the retaruing

Finally the 'whistle sounded,"thepor-
tees lusty voice called Station A
and Judith, with book and umbrella iu
her hand, sat waiting impatiently for
the train to stop. A beruiug desire
posseesed her to glance once again in
the little mirror, though she dreaded--
• doing so lost either of the yomag men
• behind her had disappeared. Surely
nq true -heat -Led man would ever offeatt
woman such an'insult, and these two
certainly seemed gentlemen. As she
rose to leave the car, 'irresistibly im-
pelled she lifted her eyes to the glass
and saw, to ber in fiuite relief, both seats
occupied as herore ; one of -the young
men seemed ,absorbed in a. book, and
the other was intently reading a news--
•, paper, by which his face was entirely
concealed.
• Mrs. Baehr:Ws coachman not having'
arrived, Miss Allem walked up andt
down the platform in th.e cool afternoon
- breeze untilleer excitement was some- -
what abated. thengb she felt- that thd
wounded pride and immiliatiou would
remain in her heart till the day of her •
death. ,
The intensity of her hatred for thea
• unknown auther of the injury poeetieeie
appalled her, andeshe fervently- prayed
. that farther knowledge of the offender
might never m eny way be given.
• Untying her heavy veil that the Wind
might fan her hot cheeks, Judith sud-
denleiliscovered Isiah disriarty that one
of heeearrings wad; missing; it was a
tiny onyx -fuchsia 1with gold stamens,

dlessly, lost. She remembered now h v.

Judith took hers .at iri . the carria
and rolled away in solitary state to.
• Mrs. Barlow's rnatision.
The lady of thearatn.or was a worn n
of catne and dignified bearing, un e-
monstrative in sPeech, and firm a id..
unalterable in principles and opinio a;
her children lovtlat, her servants e-
spected, and her friends admired; but
Judith, after the first day spent in
Barlow's. image, felt that the mother o
her little pupil, theugh in every resp c
most superior woman', was o
to whom she conld never be drat
by any feeling of affectiea or sta
pathy. •
•
The duties of her position were f w
and sineple ; she was received as a lac y,
and treated with Scrupulous politen ss
by servants and all.a.s a member of tie
. After her interview with M s.
Barlow' on the .subject of education, 1 t
tle Alice was left entirely to her ca e

Judith was just turning to leave the
room. twhen ,Alloe came running 'i
with tloWiug, cheeks and shortened
breath:
" Oh, Miss Allan, David sent me te
ask yo a if I Might have a holiday and
ride to the Beeeli woods with him this
moeniug, audhe- says there are three
horses, and he would like to have .i701.1

and the child danced - up and down in
her excitement and eagerly scanned her
mother's face for, encouragement of the
Pl?:".
\•Vhat do .you..ad.vise, Mrs: Barlow ?"
asked Judith, also turning to the older
lady. „
"Use your own judgment, Miss Al

pen did. not pelage. for a .moment- in. it

" I am williug you shoulc1 have a
holiday, Alice, since your mother does
not object; but you will excuse me
from your ride; I have maay thing I

The clocks were just ..striking twelve
that night when Judith was awa,kened
from her sleep by a violent ringing of
the door -boll; the whole house was in-

confidences that, there was a growu-up
son in tlte fami y,t who came home
from his busines-s 'edery . month or so,
and spent a few d ystc' with his mother
andaisters ; bualy Mrs Ba,rlow• or her
eldest daughter is name had never
been mentioned, e hether intentionally
or not she was 1 nable to tell. This
gentleman was reliably David, the
pride and admiradon of. little Alice;
and how cohld :.he. nerve herse]f to
meet him, as wott d Certainly be neces-
sary, after the • unfortunate - though
natural Mistake of• the evening; her

" Mies Allan, th'e is my: son."

introduction ; the gentleman raised bis

trim over his colfee-cap, bowed,- and

left the room.
"i\Iv son was embarrassed by the un-
expected entrance of lady," remarked
Mrs. Barlow, with, a keen glance at i!
Judith's quiet lace. The geetlemesa's
oessive uervimsnees had the effect of
•making Judith calin. and. her manner
.coasermeutly perfeetly natural, so Mrs.
Barlow's. suspicions of a previous ac-
quahltande, mom.entarily- entertained,
were as 'quickly dispelled as created.
" My sen has •come for a few -claYs'

turbed ;" and rising from the table- as

wrapped a large shawl , around th
kneeling figure, and fiading a decrante
of brandy in the closet, poured. out a
glassful, and urged the stricken lady to:
swallow it; then Coaxing her into a
Chair before the fire, she begangather
ing together the articles that would be
needed on the journey a few hears
later. Until four o'clock - Miss Allan
• was busy emptying drawers arid- pack-
ing their contents, with only an oc-
casional word of direction, and finally-,
when'allit wa,s completed and Mrs. Bar-
low herself dressed for travelling.Judith
• left her to give orders for the carriage
and make her own toilet for the • early
breakfast.
. David was to accompany his mother
to town, and stood waiting to put her in
the carriage, when the lady turned to
Judith with something like affectiondia
her glance,- as she sada. a
" I have the house in your care, Miss
Allan, with perfect confidence in your
ability aud judgment. My son will re-
turn to his basiness in two days, and
the family will be adduced to yourself
and Alice. I will not Come back until
my sister is. better," thea the carriage
drove away, and. Judith returned to her
awn'toom to try and regain some of her
lost eleeei before day fatly dawned. .
The evening meal was over :before
Idavid returued from the city, and he
had goite for a .date's hunting the next
moruing before the rest of the fatuity
had awakened -from their deeams. -
When the daily. lessons -were finished
Miss Allan and her charge wont out to-
gether in seardh otautuntn leaves and
berries for Christmas (loot -initials, and
were eiren deep in the dense woods that
skirted the Barlow grounds. Exhilarat-
ed by the keen air the two friends were
as merry and gay as the squirrels that
•frolicked and chased each other in the
beech, trees overhead, and .Alice was
just recovering from a spasm of laugh-
ter pausedby one -of Judith's
when they were suddenly startled by.
succession of sharp, quick barks .frora
the spaniel which had followed them,
that grew, continually More' violent and
excited.'
The dog was: hidden: from view, and
the giris, made curious by the whines
and cries to which the louder' demon-
strations now gave place, started in the
direction of Gipsey's vqice, eagee to
learn the cause of his agitation.
A momeut's run brought thel in
sight of the dog, and there beside him
on dip ground lay David leaning against
the trunk. of a large oak, with bead
.thrown back and eyes closed, to all ap-
• pearauces iusensible.‘
d Quick, Alice; dip this handker-
chief in the spring, it somewhere
near," and with .beating heart Judith
kneeled beside the prostrate figure, and
takine -one of the passive hands dubbed
it till -3 her own were, hot. Thu first
touch of the wet handkerchiefon his
forehead caused David'e blue eyes to
open, and the sight of Judith's anxious
face bending over him brought a
faint ray of color to the young man's
cheek.
• ." Don't be alarmed," he )id, trying
to smile; "the wound is a mere scratch
from careless handling of my gun; lam
all right now ;" but /411 attempt to move
the arm that lay at his side belied this
statement, and nearly caused another
fain ting t.
"I'M afraid you are seriously hurt."
said Judith, fer the first time peeceiv-
- ing a small stream of blood trickling
from the cuff of his huuting jacket.; and
ripping open the sleeve of his coat she
tied her handkerettief tightly round his
arm above the wound, arid then made a
sling of the scarf she wore to. support
the injured. wrist. As this was finished
Alice returned breathless faint the
house with the assistance sent for; and
David, teaming upon his man's strong
arm, succeeded in reaching home witht
out much difficulty.
The doctor's verliet was, "not a
dangerous wound, but oho that inust re-
ceive great care; two or three weeks of
quiet will be necessary, and then we
will talk' of your returning to business."' •
With a few parting directions to nurse
Judith," as he jestingly called her, the
old gentleman took his leave till the
next day. -
