CHAPTER V. •
Lancelot was not averScr to take
his father 'e advice.- it agreed with
the natural openness and. bravery of
his spirit; indeed, 'his acceptance of
Miss Vyner's_ offei• of nedia.tion had.
sprung from the anxions
elation of the lover and not from
the timidity -of the. man.
- Francesca; and heraunt returned
to Atherton ,Court toward the ,eed
of January,. The holiday feeling was
then •oter, and lifeehad settled into
its usual placid routine. The squire
went. hunting When the weather was
favorable; when it 'was not, he ex- .
ammed his accounts, wrote letters,
made fishing flies, read the John
Bali newspaper and the Gentlemhn's
'Magazine. •

with him an all the events which

little things had a great interest to

look at Francesca's new dresses, and
to read what had been said about

THE GUARDIAN OF OUR BOI,Yir.
, The foremost biologist of oar asy,
M. illetschnikoff, has shown the worldof science that there are leucocytes in our
blood that act as scavengers or policemen.
These policemen which are called phago-
tyie.$ look out for theno.us or poisonous
elements in our blood. Various offending
elements are picked out of the blood and
tissues by these po1iemeu and destroyed.
Therefore our livei are protected by
these blood-cell:poiicerneu, the phagocytes,
and we enjoy munutiity from disease so
long as our blood contains plenty of pliago-
tytes and red blood! corpuscles,
"A new broom sweeps clean "-and in
order to put our own house in order we
must get rid of all the poisons in the blood
with a new broom such as an alterative
extract nia.de from roots, and herbs -with-
out the use of alcohol, as Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, he specific for
making rich red blood -for eradicating the
poisons from the blood,' In seise. way: the
policemen in the bleed are increased in
number and strength-hso that we -are put
in the best possible shape to resist disease
-to cure neuralgia, colds, catarrh, and in-
cipient consumption.
"The more study and time is given to the
subject the more we find that the blood is
the center of life "-says Dr. R. V. Pierce,
the noted specialist of Buffalo, .,Ithe health
and comfort of the average person depends
entirely on this blood supply -for the heart
must have pure blood or it will not pump
and keep the body supplied regularly like
the beautiful automatic engine it is. The
nerves must be fed on pure blood -or we
suffer the pain of neuralgia, which is the
cry of the starved nerves for food. Head-
aches, cold in the head, catarrh -and many
other things are due to stagnation of the
blood."
. Dr, Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are a mild
laxative. No other medicine equals them
for gentlepess and thoroughness.
"He does not. He says he shreerh
on horseback, and that it is folly
exerting one's self to keep such an
unruly animal in order -doing the
work a ceachman is paid. to do, He
likes a cushioned carriage and Verity
of fur weeps, and a, man to do his
dr ' ' •
"Dear me! What' a trial he must
be to his father. Well, .il thou did
not ride with him, whom did thou:
ride with?"
"Very often I went alone with
Peel; and very often Mr. Lancelot
Xhigh rode with me. He lived
neighbor to. Idlehohne, and the -fam-
ilies are quite friendly,",
. The Squire did not answer. In a
moment or two he rose from his
chair, went to the window, 'and
-looked steadilyout. Loide. and
Francesca looked at each other.
There was a quick chill and silence. "
No one felt able to =continue the: con-
.
versatien, and the tick of the time-
piece and thecrackle of thcaere
*ere the only sounds.
The, garden. into. which the squire
looked as like a girl drapedfor'
her first communion, all in white,
• and he had a sudden memory of the
- place when it was a glory of per-
fume and color, and Francesca etood
there, scattering wheat to the pig -
cone. His heart was really wound-
ed by this perversity of fate. He
felt as -if he had been deceived, by -
power which should have respected
his blindness and Weakness. At the.
, mention of _Lancelot's name te s
sprang to his eyes -he had gone o
the window to 'hide them. Standing
there, the forlorn fooling of a man
led astray by destiny assailed him.
What could his love or prudence do
against a labality so pitiless?
Moments are hours - in such mental
conflicts;. he 'seemed tb lose his
foothold, and to go clowe and down
into an abyss- ofeanexpected sorrow.
• ,Something to lean: upon. was a neces-
sity -the floor was reeling, the win-
dow receding; eherything becoming
dim and blank. He grasped the
backof a. chair,- and by a perempt-
ory exercise of will compelled bine-
edit to meet this consciousnesa o/
1
unavoinable suffering and disappoint-
ment. And then -so wonderful are
• the voides of comfort -a little brown
bird on a bare spray said cheerily:
"Chuck, chuck! Have you any-
thing for me this morning? I am
so hungry."
And he whispered:
"God bless the bird!" and, wont
to the sideboard and got sonte
bread -crumbs for it.
He was scattering them on the
window -sill when footsteps on the
crisp snow made diem turn his head.
It was Lancelot Leigh. His youth
and beauty were , very remarkable in
the clear winter day and against the
sparicline, white backer ohn d. They
would have been offensively so, , had
they not been made tolerable by

choose, but the shame will be yOUrS,.
not mine."
La.ncelot entered the room with an
eagee look at Francesca, but both
she and Miss Joida were unavoid-
ably kold and constrained. They
felt as if the visit ,was inopportune,
and Lo ida's ins t tint mental query
had been: "Why was he in sudh a,
hurry?" On the contrary, Lancelot
thought he had been uncommonly
patient. He was anxious to explain
himself, and, with the self-confidence
of youth, he went at once to., the
purport of his visit.
"1 wish to speak to you .privately,
squire," he said, •"on a very per-
sonal mat ter," -
"Sir?" answered the squire. "You
can have, nothing privatc. or personal
with me. .What you have got to
say, say now and here Sit still,
Francesca! Sit still, Loida!" The
gentleman can have nothing to day
.to me you may not both listen to.,"
Lancelot looked at Francesca, and
hesitated. Her lace -red as a rose --
Was bent over her lace -work, but she
felt his glance and answered it with
one encouraging and affirmative.
Then lid spoke out frankly, with a
kind. of bold respect:L'Squire Atherton, 1 h0.179...come eto

The words were the cry of a
wounded heart,. and he stretched out
his, &erns as he uttered them. In a
moment Francesca was within their
embrace. Hea' head was on his
breast. She was close to his heart.
She was softly crying:
"0 father! father! My. dear fath-
er!"
"Say thou loves me best, my
clearie?" .
"I love yon! I love you better
than My life, father!"
"Better than this young mare who

_Lancelot looked at his love *ith

and far stronger. She remained mo-

Miss Loida, trembling and weep -

poor girl seated herself again, "rny

tinued: "Brother, I must speak for -

between lover and father in this

Forgetful of every one, caring for
nothing, Lancelot was kneeling by
Prancesen,'s side. Ills arms were
round her, his cheek was against her
cheek. They were -weeping together.

The favor ga, ned so hardly was not I
one that could be used without great
care and sell -restraint; Lance found
• it difficult to do right. If lie kept
entirely out of the squire's way, the
unhappy father made a scorndul won-
der of it; if he visited ; Atherton
Ceurt in the squire's presence, he
could not- avoid giving offense. It
was a. position that would have kill-
• ed love in any nature less aweet and
tcilerant and self -forgetting than
Lancelot's.
Neither had Lancelot in his own
home much real sympathy. His mo-
ther only. tolerated "Lady Frances-
ca" because her son had not only
positively refused to marry Maria
Crossley, he had shown also some
admiration for pretty Samna Ni;
who just at this thxte finished her
education and returaed home. And if
there were any human beings alto-
gether hateful to Mrs. 1.40, it was
her nearest zieighbars, the Newhys.
• The land of Newby Farni joined the
land of Leigh Farm, and portions of
the tveo .ehtetes hadz! frequently
changed' hands. In the bed tinaes of
Leigh, the Newbys had hought some
be the Leighs' land; in the bad times
of the Newleys. then the Leighs had
gradually redeeraed their meadows.
The hatioting terror .of Martha
Leigh's life was the fear' that her
husband would mortgage TLeigh to
Newby; for the Newbys were at this
time very prosperous, and just as
greedy as they had ever ' been of
their neiglihor's acres, Aid Sanna,
Newby Was undoubtedly p etty. So
that between her desire that Lance
shenid marry Maria- Crossley and her
fear), that he blight fancy Senna,
Ilewby, Mrs. Leigh was kept in a
perpetual worry. Stephen thought
she ought to be happy enough to
Compromise on Miss Atherton.
"It is few peopled" he said, one
day, in reply to a long complaint on
this ' dubject -"it is few people,
Maritha, who get what they want,
and so they ought to be Va411 suited
if they miss what they do not Wrvnt.
XiSt3 Atherton is not as welcome as.
Maria, btrt she is better than Senna.'
I'd be content: if I was thee."
But Miss Atherton might be tante'.
wife and yet not znistress of Leigh
House, and this likelihood was Mar-
tha Leigh's terroT. She .was of that
order of women who love their child-
ren passionately while infirmity or
weakness ask for their protecting
care. Lance, however, no longer
came to her for consolation or ad-
vice. IIe bore his own trials and
ordered his own affairs. But her
home! It could' not save itself from
the deTewhys. \There was no 'voice ill
it a gray stone a that asleed Stephen
Leigh to spare it from usurers and
loan -men. There was no one but her
to plan for its salvation or defend
its rights, and in so doing preserve
the ;place ear her ancestors in the at-
mosphere of their influences.
lhor she fervently believed -that
stratagers in Leigh House woudd shut
its doors against the wraiths of
those who had built its rooms and
who etill visited theti. She was
planning and fighting, 'then, not only.
for the living, tint the dead. There
was, a, cloud of Ntnesses behind
urging her to maintain their rights,
and Lance's marriage affected her
mainly in this direction. Maria
would insure Leigh in the Leigh Inc,
for she Was one of those earthly,
selfish. women who find conn.ubial
love all the love they desire. She
would marry Lance and forget her
own father and inother and kindred;
she would merge her own house, if
need was, into the 'welfare of his
house. She would obey Lance like
an Indian squaw, and for the bones
of love he threw her serve the house
of Lig1i with all her body and all
her soul.
The difference betiveen such an
animal woman. and the spiritual
Francesea was very great, and the
shrewd Yorkshire woman understood
at once which would aid her purpose
best. Therefore she received the
news of Lance's engagement to Mies
Atiferton. • with unreasonable anger
and disappointment, and Lance was
Rept in constant -irritation by the
fears and predictions of dleaster that

choice of a wife.
It was some consolation that he
had his father's hearty sympathy.,

Loida was 'then 'charmingly: neglect-

for two only, and that a third, how-
ever sympathetic, could not even be
chorus to it. On wet days she let
them wander about the old roomand corridors; where every picture
kept a story and ehery chair held a
dream.. And as the spring Came on,
there was the clematis arbor and the
terracd walks.
Together the Levers watched the
budding of the trees and building'of
the nests. Together they saw the
opening of the lilies and the tulips,
and the bluebells! little censer swing-
ing. Together they listened to the
throstles' sweet vesper, and to the
delicious dissyllable of the cuckoo -
bird. And as the garden Bided with
roses and with all the glory and

so joyfully through it That Lantelot

when the cool air thrilled througb

peace flowed down upon them

they sat silent together, and listened
to the , nightingale, in the deep
woods, singing to his mate!
-They were both so young, botb so

impossible not to feel a certain joy
