CHAPTER XXXVI.
The two ladies stood staring at one an-
other for a full momeat without speaking.
Miss Prettyman, tired and •perplexed al-
ready, turned very white. An angry glow
around her heart sustained her. She teed
after a moment: .
"1 might have expected this. This is
just the sort of trick you and you alone are
cap ble of playing on rne " -
"11a, he.," said Mrs. Vjiooent, "You are
ang 37, Letitia Prettytn n, _because I have
beee clever enough to fiu1 out where our
pretty heiress is hiding. • May I inquire
howl it is you have al fe discovered her
whereabouts? • You kne nothing whatever

lun hing together this af rnoon. You Were
all conjectures then. ' What could bave
bee me of the dear ohil ? What terrible
misfortune had happened to her ? Where
did you get yoer present. information ?"
"Oh," said bliss Prettyman, who was
past WI pretence then, "for the matter of
that I !knew all the time where Phyllis

"May I aelc evhat motile you had in act-
ing so de eitfully, and in keeping me in t e

"The motive that I always have in e-
gard. to you, Mrs. Vincent. I wished as
far as po ai le to protect poor Phyllis fr m
your wi k d teacbinations. I bate y u,
Mrc Vi e n I don't mind declaring t e
fact openly."
" Oh, myj d ar,4-said Mrs. Vincent, with
a light laug , "it matters very little to e
whether yoU peak openly or not. 1 ill
say one thing for you, Letitia, you alwa a
think openly. I have known for many yere
how cordially you loathed me, how thank ul
you would be to get rid of -me. I should n t
like to be ill nd to be left alone to your te
der mercies. There might come a mome t
when a wrong bottle might be used by m8 -
take, oh, quite by mistake. What so ea:y
as te open the cork by mistake and pour a
little of the contents in a glass—ha, ha, you
loolt pale, Letitia." s
"I am Meal," said Mies Prettyman,
"bit I am resolved not to listen any longer
to yeur innuendoes. And now I will wish
you good -night."
"That is quite unnecessary, my dear, for
we are going to the aims place." . .
"Very- well; yoni can go in your own
way. I cannot hinder you, but I certainly
am firmly resolved net to accompany you.
Again I wish you god i -evening."
Miss Prettyman turned away as ' she
spoke.
Onof the raelway porters came up to her
et th, e moment.
•" le iss Polly Smith has just driven over
with he dog -cart," he said. "She belonge
toith Priory, and she is asking if a lady
hide rived."

Vine nt. "Where is the trap porter.'

Pr ttyman. Good -evening."
moment later poor Miss Prettyman
feued herself standing alone on the plat -
f r h. For an instent she was stunned.
W.S it possible that Mrs. Vincent could be
4 ruel a3 to represent herself as the lady
w d had come by the train, and who bed
tel 'graphed to announceher arrival?
rs. Vincent was capable however, of
far more intrieate strokes of diplomacy than

fri nd perplexed mortals.
• he Smith family were intensely con er
va ive in their ways; they liked to live b
rul , and to expect their guests in the ild
fas ioned style, and to make much of t
wh n they arrived. They would have b
sor ly annoyed at this second, or perh

qui tly sitting down in the:porch and fa ut

ei
This being the case, every scrap of g o
nat re the Smiths,p,ossessed was roused. 1
ther . Mrs. Smith came out herself to 1 o
at her strange guest, and seeing how al
and worn her face was, and how thoroug ly
mis rable the poor lady appeared, she a
down in the porch and supported Mimi P et
tyman's head on her ample breast.
Mrs. Smith was not a demonstrative er-
• son, except to her very own, and Miss P et-
tyman little knew what a compliment he
good farmer's wife was paying her.
After a trt tinie, and under the vi or
ous a,pplie tion of burnt feathers to er

hausted woman opened her eyes and too ed
round her.
"Well, you have been bad," said rs.
Smith. "Agnes, my dear, we must get er
up to her room and pop her into bed at
once, with plenty of pillows to her head to
ease her breathing, poor dear, and t en
when she is better we'll let Phyllis k ow

She has lived with nie for several trionthe. !
She has her faults, nevertheless, she has

that good is properly led. ' She is sincerely

own that such a step ast4mi.bed me_ very
nuich ; but even so, I ant prepared to do
everything in my power to help your
brother. I came here to-n:ight for the ex-
press purpose of promoting the marriage.
I thought the best thing Ileould possibly do
was to lake lodgings i the village; and
keep Phyllis with me ntil the wedding
day. This would avoid a reat deal of scan-
dal."
"Scandal 1" said Agnes it a somewhat
severe tone.
"Yes, my dear young lady, scandi
al s
the word. Yon in your quiet and peace-
ful life know nothing of hit is said and
done in the great censorio s world. I hope
you will never know. I h pe you will al-
ways keep your peace. The world is a
cruel place,and this house a perfect haven

and your eyes are to bright."
"Oh, I shall rest presen ly, but I must
warn Phyllis. I am in fa or of her mar-
riage, but the lady who c me down here,
who is called Mrs. Vineen and who took
my place in your dogcart, s a most danger-
ous woman. For reasons f her own, she is
thoroughly opposed to my ward's marriage
to your brother. She doe not oare at all
for Phyllis. All her niotiv s are elfcentred,
and their l is nothing she w uld n t stoop to
do to prevent this marri ge. am more
than sing that she has discover d Phyllis's

poor girl with her a mo ent onger than

" Wh , what can she po aibly o?" as ed
Agnes, n 1 her matter -of fact oiee. 'If
Phyllis s ya that she inten s to arry Jo n,
that put an end to the m tter. Surely he_
cannot ave the least ffect n Phyl is,

"My ear, believe me, it is not wife to

what a wieked, unscrupul us woman of the
world is crspable of dojo, and Phylli is

"You surprise me," aid Agnes. 4 If
the world is as you say, I hould not care to
have much to do with it. What do you e -
commend me to do now? YOU are too ill
and too tired to be worrie in any way o -
night. , What do you exp et me to do ?"

"Certainlir`ot in this ouee. We have

"No, she cannot stay. oily will drive
her back to the station Oh, yes," con-
tinued Agnes, shaking her end in a wise
kind of way which comfort d Miss Pretty -
r
man immensely. "Mrs. inept capita

orry for you, but Mrs. Vineent, from What
Polly tells me of her, is the lag, person my

Priory."
CHAPTER XX VII.
bliss Prettyman continued to feel a won-
derful sense of comfort, evei after Agnes
had left her. For the first inc for many
years she found herself sur ounded by all
that was good. None of tbe real spirit of
the world could get into this peaceful house.
The people in it were so true and innocent,
so straightforward, that double dealing, and
shuffling, and evil ways were qualities un-
known to them.
Miss Prettyman lay and r fleeted on the
expression which kind Agnris Smith's face
wore. She had a sort of c nviotion that
Mrs. Vincent, with all her vii influences,
could not conquer in this ho se.
She lay, therefore, in pealce, waiting for
Phyllis.to come to her.
Presently there was ar sound in the long,
narrow passage oueside. The 91d -fashioned
oak door was opened, and al bright girlish
face peeped round the cornertben ,the girl
on whom all Miss PrettyMatee anxieties
were now fixed, tripped lig tly into the
room. Her eyes were wee ae if she had
been crying, but she looked vIerysweet and
soft, and bending down, h gave Miss
Prettyman a really affeetiona e kiss.
" Well, you poor old de r, ' she said.
"And what did you come do, n for? It is
just like you to fuss over a worthless thing
like me. In the first place you know I am
not worth it; in the secoed, you might
have guessed that can take !perfect care of
myself; in the thiN, I am viith John's peo-
ple, and they would not let 3. y harm come
to me." 1
"Oh, I know that now," seid Miss Pret-
tyman. " But hove could I tell it when I
was up alone in that great house in Lon.

"Well, I am *ery glad to see you," eaid
Phyllis, "althoegh, of course, 1 I am sorry
you took all thie trouble. However, I know
that the Smiths mean to be very kind to
you. Agnes is full of sympathy for you al-
ready, and dear old Mrs. Smith spoke of
-you with tears in her eyes. You will get
well soon in this lovely place, Miss Pretty-
man, so that is all right, onlyit seems a
great pity you took all this trouble."
While Phyllis was speaking !Misa Pretty-
man put out one long slender band and laid
it on the young girl's sleeve.
"My dear," she said, "the.cjuestion of
questions to -night is this, whataato become
of Mrs, Vincent?" ,
Phyllis shrugged her shoulders ; then she
sat down on the side of the bed and burst
out laughing.
"At the present moment," she said,
"Mrs. Vincent is standing on the porch
fighting Agnes, and Polly, and P oebe, and
rs. Smith. She insists upon e eying for
the night, and Agnes, and lolty, and
Phoebe, and Mrs. Smith insist upon her
going back to the station. I am intensely
curious to know how masters will ierrninate.

"Polly is driving Mrs. Vincent back to
the railway station," replied.Mrs. Smith, in
her calm voice. "We willesay nothing
more about her now, Phyllis Come, my
dear, you must go to your bed at once.'
So Phyllis, with a wry face, hut in a -won-
derfully submissive manner, followed her
ifuture mother.in-law.
When the door had closed behind the
two, M iss Prettyman clasped her hands„
and absolutely uttered a prayer of relief and
thankegiving.
"What nice people," she said to herself
rgalk of good taste'talk of real refinement;
Who has the most, Mrs. Vincent or Mrs,
8mith ? How dignified Mrs. Smith is! Hove
gracious, how hospitable, and yet how firm
She is a real lady. I feel that I could con

must."
Miss Prettyman slept well that night;
end in the morning was much better. She
got up soon after breakfast, and went
downstairs. There she held a (menet( with
the family, in which she earnestly begged of
them to allow her to take lodgings in the
nearest village, or to go to the small village
hotel, if it were a suitable place, and there
to remain With Phyllis until the wedding.
Mrs. Smith, however, put down her foot
veryfirmly.
"That is all very well," she replied.,
"But just at present, and until ziey on
John arrives, this young girl has been left,
absolutely in my charge, and I cannot eee
sign her to any one but my 8011 laimself.,
We expect him back this evening, fife third

day with us. If, after talking with hirne
this arrangement seems the best, I an quite,
willing eo make it. In the mean time,
Phyllis remains with us."
"Then, in that case," eald Miss Pretty-
man, "I am not wanted here. I had better
go back to town."
"You must please yourself aboet that,"
answered Mrs. Smith. "But I thietkl may
say, with my husband and my deughters,
that you are heertily welcome to remain
here until Monday, at ?east."
"Oh, do stay," said Agnes,- whet had

Oat and Dog story.•
When a young man I .was boarded at a-
lum called A--, in Argyllshire. The
farmer owned a large Toni cat oalled Bauldy,
and a small collie dog called Rosier- Strange
u it may appear, the two (Bauldy and
Rosie) were nearly inseparable friends, and
in many caves firm allies, as the following
facts will show. About thirty- yards from
the steading a email stream ran and fell into,
Loch Awe. During the spawning season,
when the stream was in spate -trout from
the loch went up to spawn. For about ten
days no one about the place could under-
stand what attraction Bauldy and Rosie IDA
along the aide of the burn. One- day, how,.
ever, the mystery Was solved, After wateh.
ing for some time I, to my surprise saw the
dog walk deliberately into the top of a shals
low pool, crossing and recrossing the water,-
while a little further down stream crouchisc

where puss crouched. All at once she
sprang right into midstream, and after a
few moments' struggle landed with a fins

and duly delivered to Mrs. Bauldy and her

And boil till all the water's gone—
No matter where. Stir with a spoon
And deftly add of milk one quart ;
Boil till it thickens as it ought.
Stirring it with the aforesaid spoon
Till it is smooth and while and done.
Then add three egg yelks beaten light,
One lemon's rind all granted right,
And white sugar well refined,
Eight spoons, by stirring thus combined.
Now pour the mixture in a dish,
Of any size that you may wish;
And let it stand while with a fork
You beat the whites as light as cork—
The whites of three eggs, I mean.
And when they're beaten stiff and dune
Add eight spoonfuls of sugar light,
And put the frothing nice and white,
Upon your pudding like a cover—
Be sure you spread it nicely over,
In a cool oven let it brown—
We think the pudding will go down.
