He comes out from the house In a strange manner and finds Gladys She Is puzzled at this. Havermeyer gives Davarls the hermit s message. "Did you ever know a man by the name of Cyrus Westerly?" Davarls repeats In a dazed tone : "Cyrus Wester.y. ’ CHAPTER VI. Davarls recognizes the picture Havermeyer took of the dead Westerly as that of a mau ho knew when a boy In Greece. Davarls plays on the violin to Gladys, he Is about to projHise to her and acting strangely leaves hurriedly. Ned Lawrence did not find the dinner party he attended that evening very entertaininif. It was a etai; dinner, or very nearly so, for the one lady present was the mother of the younger sou of the bouse which was entertaininKThey were left to themselves over th>ir nine, and the motion, "Shall we join the ladies?" never came, for the old lady retired promptly at half after nine each night. The men began to talk horse over their cigars, of the rerent “Surburban,’’ and how the despised horse, unheard of and unthought of, in connection with the •Queen of the Turt" had won lu June. Lawrence did not care for that sort of thiiift now. The only recollection of tiie races ho had was of a hot dusty day, a long-suffering crowd, aud finally a dash of rain to ruin the hats and gowns of the woman, and also complete the ruin of the ruin of their tempers. Lawrence had In truth been In the thick of It, aud had lost a good deal of money on the favorite, but he had lost it like a man an 1 well—he lid not care for these things now. She had taught him to think of other things and live for other things. The raeng was all very well in its way, and quite the proper tiling (o talk about, but to him •he stor.es of the great race were old. And when young Havermeyer lighted his second cigar and log in to tell the story it, "When I wath in Canada last spring, ion’t you know, 1 caught a trout weighpg exactly —” Lawrence thought it was »bout time for him to go. Ho was very sorry to leave so early, as he had spent a very pleasant evening, at east ho told his host so, hut it was with a Teeing of great relief that he fouud himseif iu tie open air. It was long before the time he ha 1 ordered a carriage, so he started to walk up the road briskly. It eas a rather long distance back to the •ottage and the hour grew late as he approached. The night was warm, although there was a bieeze from the southeast, and Lawence unbuttoned his coat and took off his lat to let the wind cool his heated head, lie felt that something had sent him iway from the dinner-party. A feeling • ague and uudeliue 1 came over him that jladys wanted him, or what was mue.i nore to the point he wanted Gladys. It was during the solitary walk that a r» solve shape 1 itself in his mind that he could not sleep that night until ho knew whether she loved him or not. He felt strangely happy as he walked along the road. It did not seem that he knew exactly whore ho was. Everything was strange and unreal-tho twinkling lights In the cottages about him, the roads and the lawns here and there that ho had known almost from tils boyhood. The road stretched out before him like a gray path, and he i lly wondered if le knew after all whore it was leading him, and it seemed that, he jia 1 never been on It before. He remembered dimly seeing carriages pass by, the lamp? gleaming on the road, and onco when ho stood for a moment under a street lamp, he remembered how tome woman had nodded cordially to him from a passing brougham. Then lie reached the cottage and silently entered the he.U . A? b«sto o rJ a moment near the door bo was conscious of a strange feeling. He did not know what it was, but coming from a room near at hand wasstraugo music that found an echo In bis heart and made him stop in his tracks, with his hand on the knob, and listen. The tones came like the far away sound of waves beating on the shore and then grew louder until Lawrence felt tempted to put his hands to his ears to keep out the sound. The house was quiet as death and so the sound of footsteps stealing along the hallway were more readily distinguished, A woman was coming along tbohaii and paused before the half open door-way. She did not see Lawrence for her back was partly turned toward lira; but as she came from a lassagc way he had obtained a view of her face and had seen her flashing block eyes. The face reminded him of someonos’s face, but then he could not think whose. It did not seem like a woman’s face and there was a look on It that frightened Lawrence. It was a set

determined look and to him as she crouched near the door, It seemed that she was like a panther ready to spring. Lawrence did not remember ever seeing the woman before in the house, but she was dressed as a maid and laughing to himself for his strange fancies, he sprang up the stairs. She was very likely one of the servants attracted by tbe music whle'i 1 ad for one moment enthralled I.awrenc». He broke the spell and went to bis room. He didn’t stay there very long, for it made him uneasy to think of Gladys down there with those people, and besides he wanted a chance to speak to her on tbe subject uppermost in bis mind. He l.ghted a cigarette, and holding it in I is hand again went down stairs. The woman in the hall was gone and In the rrom there was silence. He turned toward it and then paused. He felt that his hand was shaklug and that I.a could I ear the beating > f his heart tumultuously. He leaned apainst the banisters with his side against the rail, and every time his heart Unit he could fe d t ie motion in the slight yielding of his body. Now that the time for him to put It to t ie test lad Come, lie fdt weak, and yielded to the temptation to go out of doors and smo ,o for a few moments. He wondered if that feeling of weakness was a comm m failing of lovers, and he wondered if lie really was In love or whether he ha 1 b'en playing with edged iools and had been cut. If si.e love I 11m, all well and g >od, if she didn’t, then it was Eng and aud t..e continent, or Af lea—any where ids paper would send him, outsi le of America. He didn't as< for much. It was only to be gone six mouths; then he would return aud If necessary meet Gladys day after day In secioty and no one would dream that there had teen anything between them, and if such a thing had bsea suspected no one would think it serious. He sank into a low chair on the piazza and elevated bis feet on the rail. Itwis very qu'et except for the singing of the crickets by the hedge and tbe occasional cry from a dog or some animal in the distance. Then Lawrence heard a voice and a crunching of gravel on the walk. He saw a figure of a woman step from a side door and saw' a man come from behind a bit of s irubbery. T ey di 1 not know it, but a light from a w lndo v streamed full upon them, and Lawrence saw Davaris, the weird violinist, and the woman who had been crouching at the door.

He lingered and heard the woman * clear voice re])ly. They wnlke l near him, evidently thinking the piazza unoccupied and in so remote a corner of the house, periiape with a view to taking possession of it themselves. Lawrence brought his feet down from the rail at once and started up. Ho thought he would go away, but the man was talking angrily to his companion, and it seemed that he was threatening the woman. Lawrence did not care to become an eavesdropper, yet at tbe same time he was not the man to run away aud leai-e a woman in any sort of danger. “Helene,” the man was saying. “O’i why did you do it? Why did you come? Why didn't you stay away as I told you? You don't know what you have done, aud you have made mo angry.” It was not so much the words themselves but the cold, calmly angry way in which they were spoken that male Lawrence know what they meant. He lingered and heard the woman's clear voice reply: "I know what you have done. I know you have lallen lu love with the woman. It is something you have no rigut to da. I warned you, and you did not heed the warning. Philip Davaris you know why ) came. You know what you must do. You know that you must go away." It all seemed plain to Lawrence then. Davaris was a man who had some connection with this servant, a man who carried on a low affair with this woman, yet dared to love Gladys Montague. Ho had dilHculty in holding himself back, but a feeling came upon him to leap the railing at one jump and confront the Greek and accuse him of this. "There is some great mistake, I feel convinced, Helen And i know now what you mean when you say I must go away, and that I know what I must do. Oh, I cannot do it!” There was a note of sorrow iu his voice, but Lawrence iu his excitement totally failed to observe It. "It seems to me that you grow more chicken hearted as you grow older," said the woman with a sneer. "When you were in Greece, you were not so scrupulous.” “Do something?” muttered Lawrence under his breath, home plan for robbery evidently. He must look into this. "Y’ou are a Greek,” she continued. “I am a Greek. These years you have spent !c thli country have made you turn Into an American. You do not remember your duty to your dead father. Instead xvliat do you do? Look at me if you can while I tell you. You f ill In love with a woman, you are crazy after her, you play to her on a violin, you look into her eyes and utter her name. It is then that you see me, it is then that you remember everything, ai d you drop your violin and come to me. Before you leave mo to-night I shall make you promise ” They came neat the piazza and evidently seeing that some one was already there, or perhaps smelling Lawrence’s cigarette smoke, they continued ou their way down the walk leaving a very much perplexed man on the piazza. Jt didn’t take him long to make up his mind that something very much to the disadvantage of Gladys was being concocted. And he wondered how he was to let her know of it. He couldn't very well

march up to Gladys, or Mrs. Hamlyn, for that matter, and blandly say, ' This man, your guest at dinner this evening, is now having a clandestine meeting with a servant girl. They are planning something very much to your disadvantage In some way, I tell you this that you may know what to do to thw irt them. Cut this man Davarls and discharge your servant at once.” Tills, of course, wns wliat be would have liked to have done, but on serlons thought he rellected tl at It might ba taking a good deal for granted, and Gladys w.iu'd think that his jealousy had made him slightly crazy oa this question of Davaris, and his attention to the said young woman. At any rate he resolved that he roust k"ep a good vtntc i on the actions of the Greek. Of course i e did rot mean to play the spy or anything of that sort, hut If anything ram" under his notice, like the evenings epis de, for example, he v.ould make t ie most of it. The man was an adventurer, without doubt, and It wns ids duty to expose him os soon ns possil le. The woman—well, the woman was quite another mntt 'r, and might be his wife, or his confederate, or something of that sort. It was clearly Lawrence's duty to open his eyes an 1 look about. And then bis thoughts vent back to Gladys. It seemed very odd that s e should be surrounded with so much mystery aud should allow herself to be entangled with such a strango man. a f >retgner. and a man of much different idea? and much did rmt purpo oi from lie-s. It surprised Lawrence a good ileal, for he thought she knew lrett"r than that. But after all, who really knows a girl's mind? Eha doesn't a'ways know It herself. It 8 ‘emod to Lawrence a ha f hour, hut It was really but live minutes that ho sat ou the piazza thinking of these things. Did ho not owe it to Gladys to tell her what he had seen that night, but even if he diil tell her would she believe it? Then l e arose quickly and entered the house again, resolv.ug to find her. If the accepted him, then it would le time enough for him to tell her, and if sho rejected him — why then she might take care of her-

teif.

A rathe:- selfish way to look at thingi, but withal vary human, and Lawrence was human. In the hall he met Thurston. ''Well, how is it?" aske 1 the latter. “What?” replied Lawrence, staring. ‘‘Oh—things," returned Thurston. “Well, I don't know," replied Lawrence. "To tell the truth, I suppose 1 might as well toil you, I may go away to-night and I may stay. It's got to come to-night, and I'll be hanged if a girl rejects mo if I'll stay in the same house another hour. If anything should happen, old fellow, mind you, and I should go nw-ay suddenly, hack me up for all you are worth. Toll the people next morning that 1 am subject to these attacks; that I usually leave a place that way; that I Lad a sudden call on business; tl.at I received a telegram informing me of the death of a very rich ie alive—in fact anything. And, Thurston, I mean this, have an eye out for that Greek.” "Wbo do you mean? Olt, Davarls. I saw him not a quarter of an hour ago makiug trac.is for the hotel as fast as he could leg It. Looked sort of done up about something and didn't speak to mo as he went by. I don't mind that, for I don't think much of him, as I have told you before. Ae for the other matter you don't go at it in the right way. ‘Faint heart,’ and ail that sort of thing, you know. If you can win a fair lady do it in a manly way and don’t cringe about and hem aud haw, but get right down to business.” ‘ Haven't you got a book on ‘How to Pop the Question; or, Proposals and Proposing?’” laughed Lawrence, nervously. "I sort of wish it was over. Well, old fellow, shake hands once for luck, and here

goes.”

The two friends who bad carried this conversation on by the foot of the staircase in an undertone gripped their hands heartily togotlier, and Lawrence clung to Thurston’s largo palm as if he didn't dare to let go. Then he turned away and went silently down the hall. Thurston looked after him and took a pipe from his pocket. He went out on the piazza and began filling it. His hands trembled somewhat, and then ho looked towards the doorway from which the light streamed out on the piazza. “Another poor fool!" he muttered. "Another poor

Standard Dictionary.

The publication of the Standard Dictionary, published by Funk Si Wagualls, places before the reading world a work that, for many reasons, is deserving of more than a passing mention. In tbe first place, it is the very latest publication in a field in which we have already the Century, Webster’s, Worcester’s, the Imperial, and Stormonth, not to mention smaller and more special works. Being the Utest, it has of course bud the advantage of the work that has been done by its predecessors. In the next place, s book of this kind, in the very nature of the case, must have claims to serious consideration, or its publishers would not have ventured to risk a million dollars in its production. A careful examination of the book, and a comparison of it page by page and a different points of test with the Century and Webster’s, its two principal competitors, proves in the most conclusive and convincing manner that its merits amply justify its entrance into a field that to au uninformed observer might seem to be already filled. The special points wherein this book clearly outranks its competitors may be more clearly indicated by

presenting them categorically.

The Standard has a vocabulary of more than 300,000 words, by actual count, as against 225.000 iu the Century, 126,000 in the International (Webster’s), 105,000 iu Worcester’s, and 50.000 in Stornionth’s. This increase, of 75,000 words over a dictionary published so recently as tbe first named of these, indicates much more than appears on the surface. It means while there are comparatively few unimportant terms treated that all literature has been ransacked for its unrecorded important t i in , ;tnii that all the trades ami the arts have been laid under contribution (in electricity alone something like 4,000 new terms have been entered and described. It means, too, as gleaned by research in trial lines, that the characters in the principal mythologies of the world have been given; the terms in mysticism, formerly accessible only in special works, the very names of which were unknown to the general reader, have been gathered together and adequately explained; the science of Buddhism, with its little understood beliefs and system of worship, has been unfolded by Max Muller himself. From such valuable and not always accessible sources as these, and the kindred lines of recent scientific investigation and economic study, have come these 75,000 words more th in the Century and 175,000 words more than Webster’s International. They represent the onward March of science, literature, art, and labor in the last decade —in a word, the

A Bank Failure AN INVESTIGATION DEHANDED.

A general banking business is done by the human system, because the blood deposits in its vaults whatever wealth we may gain from day to day. This wealth is laid up against "a rainy day ” as a reserve fund —we're in a condition of healthy prosperity if we have laid away aufficient capital to draw upon in the hour of our greatest need. There is danger in getting thin, because it’s a sign of letting down in health To gain in blood is nearly always to gain in wholesome flesh. The odds are in favor of the germs of consumption, grip, or pneumonia, if our liver be inactive and our blood impure, or if our flesh be reduced helow a healthy standard. What is required is an increase in owtperm-fighting strength. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery enriches the blood and makes it wholesome, stops the waste of tissue and at the same time builds up the strength. A medicine which will rid tiie blood of its poisons, cleanse and invigorate the great organs of the body, vitalize the system, thrill the whole being witli new energy and make permanent work of it. is surely a remedy of great value. But when we make a positive statement that per cent, of all cases of consumption can, if taken in the early stages of the disease, he CURED with the ” Discovery," it seemslikc a hold assertion. All Dr. Pierce asks is that you make a thorough investigation and satisfy yourself of the truth of his assertion. By sending to the World’s Dispensary Medical Association, Buffalo, N. Y.. you can get a free hook with the names, addresses and photographs of a large number of those cured of throat, bronchial and lung diseases, as well as of skin and scrofulous affections by the “ Golden Medical Discovery. ” They also publish a book of 160 pages, being a

words and terms is not altogether new, hi,11 " in no other book of the kind has the plan been carried so for, or so carefully systematized, and with such excellent results in the way of clearness of presentation aud breadth of scope, as iu the Standard. The word architecture may serve as an illustration of a group of this kind. Under this single word the reader is referred to twenty other words, representing the leading types or groups into which architecture is historically divided, as Byzantine, Chinese, English, Creek, Renaissance, etc. Turning to any one of these words we find there the subdivisions of the subject explained and still further distributed—the word English, for instance,

opening up thirteen more minor branches. Thu*, from the single w<>r.i architecture, to which heading the reader in search of imformation on this point would naturally turn, the whole field, taking in every country, period, Mid style, is revealed at a glance. Similar distribution at the main word giving the key-word to the entire subject) are found under the other arts and sciences-the word science itself broadly grouping all the sci-

ences.

This is more than mere dictionary-making —it is instruction, and of a kind that indicates ou the part of some one remarkable learning and scholarship, as well as a breadth that talces in everything, and for which nothing is too small to be considered unworthy of some helpful word of explanation. Another form of grouping, that seems to be original with the Standard, is the gathe • mg up under a particular subject of tile principal technical words employed in it, so that it the reader requires a word and cannot recall it, he has but to turn to the branch to which it belongs, and the chances are that he will find a list of the principal terms used in the trade or business. a fter all is said, however, concerning special features, nine times out of ten when a reader consults a dictionary in connection with one of the common words it is for one of three things its spelling, it® preferred pronunciation, or for its every day or most common meaning. The test, to the average reader, of a dictionary’s efficiency will be the manner iu which it meets such demands. The general definitions of the Standard from a careful comparison of many of them with the other dictionaries, excel in the points of clearness, senteutiousness, and brief comprehensiveness. In other words, they are exact, terse, and clear-cut—brief when few words are suilicient, but by no means discarding even encyclopedic treatment when the importance of the subject

demands it.

The spelling of every one of the 330,000 words has received the attentive consideration of the eminent philologist, Professor F. A. March, L. L. D., aud the decisions seem, from au examination of a number of test words, to have been made in such a way as to avoid equally offensive new departures and
