'My dear Ethel, how untidy and sloppy
you look!'
The speaker was Mrs. - Vincent. She was
addressing a tall, dowclil -made, plain girl
of about sixteen. Ethel Vincent was hccus-
tomed to hearing herself poken of as awk-
ward, plain and disagree ble. She shrugged
her shouldere now, peels d back her badly-

arranged hair, fixed he wide-open, dell
blue eyes on her mother' face, and handed
heria letter in a blue env lope.
' The English mails ar in, mother,' she
said; 'there are a few le tees for you down-
stairs oilthe breakfast -t: ble, and this—this
is fee Phyllis.' I
'Don't speak to me of hyllie,' said lairs.
Vin'eent. 'If ou want o make me as cross
as tevo sticks f r the res of the day—you
will mention t at dim., eeable trying girl's
name. She iea thorn i the flesh for any
one who has th least thi g to do with her.
I don't know what I hav done, and I don't
know what sins I have c mmitted, to have
such a girt as Phyllis thr st upon me—then
the expense I am at with her. Of course, I
would never have undert ken ler fork mo-
ment, but for the hopes that old Ilia Drew
would die and leave her her money. 11 Now
what is it, Ethel, what re you staring at
me so for?'
'if I were you—I'd c mpose myself and
open that letter, ma ma,' said Ethel.
'What matter if it is dir etd to Phyllis—
Phyllis is ill and cannot ttend to business.
If you open the letter, y u may see perhaps
—perhaps sotnething tat will give you
pleasure.' I
'What can you mean, y dear?'
Mrs. Vincent's face flu hed. She was sit-
ting up in bed in a rath r dowdy, grimly
furnished bedroom in. 0 Parisian Pension.
Her early breakfast of co ee, rolls and but-
ter lay partly finished by her side
Ethel held the letter tantalizingly just
beyond her mother's reac .
'Von are aseeping so ething back from
me,' said Mrs; Vincent, tretching out her
fat hand. 'Give me t at letter at once,
miss, you have got some news; I see it by
your face.'
' Well, mamma, what i I haye9 Oh, is
that you, Daisy,' as an thee of the Mies
Vincente appeared rou d the curtains,
'now you are not to spoi the sport. I am
getting mamma into such a state of exeite-
ment --Connie too! re ly, Connie'you
might have stayed down tears and fiuished
your breakfast. Well, wil, I was the first
to see, so I shall be the fi at to tell. Here's
the English paper, ma ma. Look in the
death column—now—no are you sorry you
kept Phyllis with us all t ese years?'
Mrs. Vincent clutched t the paper. Her
eager eyes devoured the irief announcement
in small type in the obit ary notices. She
gave a little ehriek, and s id aloud—
'Thank the merciful ' ravens!' and lay
back panting and exci ed. She had read
the announcement of the • eath of Phyllis's
rich cousin, Miss Drew.
'Go away, all of you' she said- to the
three girls. 'Leave me : lone—where is my
purse—here is a, franc a dece for you—go
and amuse yourselves. G anywhere so that
I am left in peace. Poor hyllis—poor little
Phyllis ! ' .
"Oh, I knew she weed be 'poor little
Phyllis,' now," said Dais ---' all right, mam-
ma, I am glad you are ha .py. Come, Ethel,
come, Connie.' 1
The girls left the ro m, slamming the
door noisily behind them, and Mrs. Vincent
deliberately opened the letter which was
addressed in a lawyer's h nd to 'Mies Phyl-
lis Martindale.' A brie glance over the
contents showed her that 11 was welt. In
shore, the heiress had co e into her proper-
ty. 0 How much or how li tie, Mrs. Vincent
had not, at present, the 1 aet idea.
She reflected rapidly fo a few moments
and then determined to o to England by
the night mail.
f Under tha circumsta ces,' she said to
herself 'ib is quite impose ble for Phyllis to
, ttend to anything—she s 'weak and ill,
poor dear. It wohld b very wrong and
dangeroes to trouble her ith business mat-
ters at present. I will g and see Messrs.
ereaves and Marshall, It is absolutely
ecessary that not a mom nt should be lose

ho has indeed had the e tire care and ex-
ense of her for no long? Yes, I will get
ressed as quickly as p ssible and seed a
elegram to the lawyers. If I leave by the
ight mail I shall get to London redly to -
Morrow morning. I oo id see them at
leven o'clock. I shall ae them to make

Mrs. Vince t n ade her journey without

morning put i a, -appearance at the offices
of the lawyer, ,1M sera. Greavee and Marsh-
all. ,
She was sh ven into a waiting -room by a
t'
clerk, and f er a delay of about half an
hour'was ush e into the presence of one
of the gra.y-b ir heads of the firm.
Mr. Marsh 1 otioned her to a eeat, and,
opening some •ep re, began to speak about
the business i ha d. i'
'My olien w s buried yesterday,' be
said, 'but as 0 know all about the dieposal

'Yea,' repl ed re. Vincent, 'I stand in

I have hadth a e of her—I have taken a
mother's pod u owards the orphan girl
since she was e ears old.'
' Miss Mart a e has a small income of
her own, h s e not?' questioned Mr.
Marshall in a p tones. '1 have not had
the mana.gem n Of her affairs, but I was
speaking to 11 o re. Ryder & Ryder, who
are her father s trestees, yesterday, on the
subject, and t y told me that they were
commissioned t remit £25 a quarter to you
for the young I dy's benefit.'
'That is perf otly correct,' replied Mra.
Vincent, 'a eh que has mowed quarterly,
and I have ape t it on Phyllia's clothes and
to a certain ext nt on her education. You
probably know, Mr. Marshall, what a very
short way su h a meagre sum will go in
these days of lu erg and expense?'
'Quito so,' r plied Mr. Marehall, 6 on a
£100 a year a girl can be educated, clothed
and fed; but of course that altegether
depends upon, hpw the thing is done. We
will admit that ' you have been extremely
kind to your niece, Mrs. Vincent—but that
is scarcely the question in point at present.

as carefully tied everything up for the

yer paused, his Calm cold eyes were fixed
full upon the face of the lady who sat oppo-
eite to him.
Mrs. Vincent was a clever woman, but it
Was impossible f r her to hide the anxieties
which filled her breast at this moment. ea
'I am anxious to see Miss Martindale,'
resumed Mr. Mershall—' she is now my

READ THE PROOF!
.GENTLEMEN,4I have for a long time
needed sornethieg to make blood and
build u my syst rn. My blood was watery
and thin, lackin strength and vitality.
Last January a riend said :—" Why not
try Dr. Ward's food and Nerve Pills?
They Will supply the oxygen your blood
needs and give you health and strength."
I told hint I was very skeptical as to any
benefit that could be derived from any
proprietary med eine and had no faith in
them. There th matter rested until four
months ago, wle n reading so much about
what Dr. Ward' Blood and Nerve Pills
have done for $ many people with im-
poverished bloo , I concluded to give
them a trial. I have taken four boxes and
my unbelief so far as Dr. Ward's Blood
and Nerve Pills 4re concerned has been•
eetirely removed. They are a splendid
bl od builder aid strength restorer, and
an invaluable m dicine for weak, ener-
vated people. his has been my experi-
enCe, they fravin given me strength of
body and strong healthy blood.

'I am sorry,' shebegn , 'it is out of my
ai
power to grant you y haI you want, namely,
an interview with tithe 1hy1iie at present
She has been very '11, arid even now her life
is not out of danger. 1t4 would be unsafe to
allude to exciting ?opicsl in her presence.
You may imagine bow ery serious her ill-
ness must be, wherlt I as ure you that I had
to open your letter as I hyllis was far too
ill to read it.' !
'1 am sorry to hear th t,' said M4.Marsh-
all, 'very sorry, It wil be impoilsible for
us to administer the est te until Miss Phyl-
lis either recovers or die . Should the lat-
ter much -to -be -deplored event occur, Miss
Drew has made other provisions for the
dividing of her property. Will you kindly
let me know as soon as Miss Martindale is
sufficiently reciovered to ee me?'
`I will certainly do so In the meantime,
do you think you are tre ting me, her aunt
and almost mother„ fairly or kindly in giv-
ing me so little of our c nfidence ? I have
had the entire care of ths young girl from
the time she was five ye re old. I have had
no payment for mytrou1i1e, for the £100 a
year to which Phyl is w e entitled, by no
means covered he expenses. Now when
she is an heiress, a d wealthy, I am given
no confidence --I p.m t Id nothing. You
wish to consult a giddy alnd ignorant girl—a
child—a baby—with r gard to the most
momentous questioes. Io you think this is
a fair position to place me in, Mr. Marsh-
all?'
Mr. Marshall raised his eyebrows—a good-
humored twinkle came into hie eyes, and
a smile hovered about his long upper lip.
My dear madam,' he the eituation
seems to me monstrously unfair, but you
will understand at once, that as I did not
make it, it is imposSible for me to nn -make
it. I am acting strictly in accordancErwith
Mate Augusta Drewai last, will and testa-
ment. Her primary andatrictest directions
were that no arrangements were to be made
for Phyllis Martindele's future, until the
exact wishes of my young client were clear-
ly expressed.'
Then Phyllis mE4 oho se where she is to
live. If for ioetance, sh Should prefer—
prefer another home -.-she is no longer to
live with me
That is exactly ehe state of the case;
she is—subject to mine and my partner's
approval to chootie her on home.
Mrs. Vincent rose. She was trembling
all over with rage and dis ppointment. The
lawyer also rose from is chair—he had
gauged the good lady pretty thoroughly,
and was glad to find an opportunity of get-
ting rid of her.
'It is essential that Mr.? Greaves or my-
self should see Mise Mardindale the mo-
ment she can receive either of us,' he said.
That, I fear, will' not be for a long time,'
eaid Mrs. Vincent, With al,voice of ice.
I regret that this; shonld be the ease—
but perhaps she will recover more quickly
than you imagine. If you break this good
news to her, it may ect as ---as a tonic—try
the effect, I beg of yeti+ my dear madam.
There is nothing like) goodlnews for making
youieg people stroeg and happy. Miss
Phyilis is, then, I understend, staying with
you at your hotel in Paris at the present
moment?'
No, poor dear—she wa far too ill to be
moved to Paris. I have p aced her with a
trained nurse and a specia and dear friend
of mine in a hotel in Swat eland, where she
is receiving every possib e attention, and
where I hope to join her i mediately. It's
possible that, althoueh sh could not bear
the excitement of seeing y u, Mr. Marshall,
she may be able to vgrite b r wishes to'yesu
presently. And now, if you have nothing

certainly did nothing to win Phyllis's

CHAPTER VII.
On the evening of the second day after
Miss Mason's supposed departure from the
Hotel Chatelard, John Smith and Phyllis
Martindale had reached that degree of in-
timacy tha they could afford te quarrel
with one a other. They had had 'three dis-
tinct and s rious misonclerstandings during
that day. lOn each of these occasiens, Phyl-
i
lis had tol Smith that she never Wished ,to
speak to hin again, that his preeence was
distinctly isagreeable to her—that she meat
request hi if he considered himself in any
sense of th word, a gentleman, not . to in-
vade the b !cony during the remainder of
her visit, sith a great deal of nonsense be-
side. All hese speeches John took in ear-
nest, and ould have acted upon, for he had
rather a hot temper as well as a werm heart,
had he notibbserved the curious eremble in
the weak sluice, and looking towards the
angry girl, had seen that her loVely eyes
were full oteare. Thereupon he humbled
and abased1. himself in the most trely ridieue
lees manner, and peace and a wermer de-
gree of friendship were quickly etttahlished.
The third and most serious quarrel came on
towards evening,and then indeed the friend-
ly relations between the two were in serious
jeopardy.
John ha, been met by Miss Mi
Mon n one
I
of the passeges. She had assuredhim that
she could not keep up the ridiculous farce
she was now playing foreanother night, and
if John could not get Phyllie to receive her,
i
and to. a low -her to(reenehe her duties as
companion nurse that iery night, she would
certainly 1 ave for Paris by an early train
on the follnwing morning.

John fe t a great deal of pitr for Mies
Mason. 1e was also by no mean so dense
as not to now that his present position
was a very equivocal one, and that both for
Phyllis's sake and his own, the sooner Mies
Mason restkmed her position the better,
Be asaui1ed the little lady therefore, that
he would do his utmost, he even pro/tilted
that come kvhat would, he would bring mat-
ter! to a o isis before Phyllis retired to her
room that night.
'What an age you were over dinner,' she
said, beckdning him to her side the moment
he appeared on the balcony. '1 was vary
nearly going upstairs, but I wanted to pre -
pose a lovely( plan to you first. duet come
and sit on this low chair, bend domino I
want to speak to you in a whisper. There
ate other people corning in and I don't want
them to hear. Now, to show you how ab-
solutely I have forgiven . you for all your
crossness, I have a charming plan to pro-
pose.' !
. 'What is that?' said fitnith.! 'Letme
wrap this shawl about you,'—he aid so ten-
derly, their hands touched. Smith felt
himself trembling. In his mindhe never
felt firmer, he was determined to I bring' this
rebellious aaseinating gir/ to reason, but his
heart he knew was weak, and that touch
from the little white hand almost :unmailined
him.
'You oneht not to be on the balcony,' he
said in a lotw voice, 'you may get a return
of the fevete let me help you in; and 1 we
can talk about this delightful plan to-iiion-
row.'
'No, no, I shall not sleep utilises it is all
arranged. I feel ever so much better, and I
can tell .you my thoughts, my little id a, in '
a moment or two. I want youto hire a
boat, Mr. Smith, a boat with those charm-
ing lateen sails, and I want you to take m
down to Chillon Castle to -morrow, you an
lain alone.'
• 'But We must have a boatman,' said
Stnith,' aghast 'I know nothing about
lateen sails!'
' I Well, we'll let him sit so that he shall!
I
not see our faces. I want to be alone with
you, for I have something most important
—"most important to talk over, and on the
water we shell be quite safe from inte rup-
thine. PrOmise me, just say you will have
the boat ready, that is all I need--th n I
shall go to bed. Promise me?' ,
Phyllis touched his hand again. T ere
was more than ordinary earnestness in her
vojice. Her great dark eyes looked gloornili
at him out of the twilight.
' Whet am I to say to you,' he replied.
T en in an instant his resolve was taken. :
I am—I am very, very sorry, lYlies Male
ti dale, but I—I can't do it!'
What do you mean'you can't—I express
a tvish—and you—who profess to be my
friend, you refuse to comply with it'
PI do—because I think a great deal too
nnich of you to comply with it!' i
t Oh, how tired you make me with these
ceaseless arguments. I suppose you think
4:1
th s kind of talk metaphysical, or something.
I on't understand it. If you are my friend,
yoi will do what I wieh—at least that is my
id a of friendship.'
But it is not mine.' replied Smith, he
fel himself growing firmer each moment.
'1 cannot go alone on the lake with you
be auee it would not be right. People would
mieunderstand it. It would be very Wee
friendship to you, to allow people to gossip
about us. I won't go alone on the lake with

you a great deal too well to get you into a
