e 9 The Wrong Woman. By Winifred Graham. ;

I Ail quite a young girl, and a ladylibrarian by profe-si n. While traveling to earfoua country !.:i s, I have met with many sttange advenahires, though indexing mu.-'y !d libraries) sounds dry as dost to the caaual ear. Being one of a large family, I

revel in the relaxation of work, by which T escape "the trivial round, the common task." though often I pine for rich. a. .; and chiffon. One bright sunny mrming I met an old friend of my father's Mr. Jessop who often recorutneads me to book collecting friends. "My .! r," he said. Te a little job for you. if you like to take it on." My eyes glistened, for at the momvnt I was "out of work." "I have mentioned you to a delightful old lady." he continued, "l'mng in a beautiful country hnne. She Is Miliim to have ber plen lid libra ry talojjrued by a professional. I warn you aho is eccentric, but in a very nice way so good and kind to evervlxKlv, and especially fond of girl.'

I thauk-Hl him heartily, declaring I loved eccentric people. "Then I will aak her to write to you," be said. Sure enough, a few days later I received n request to visit Stanley House. I!ut the letter brought with) it a sen-" of disappointment, for Mrs. Shepperton informed me she was going for a shrt tour abroad, so I could not see her. I have a very nice housekcejier," she wrote, "who will look after your cofhfort. I hope you will make yturelf quite at home. The carriage shall me.-t you at the station " On my arrival I was greeted with a pleasurable surprise. A lady in purple velvet, with a beautiful laea mantilla swathing her white hair, cam-- iicr.iJK the hall o rre.-t me. She hid quaint aide curl, and a benign xpression. One or two ex-

ajuisire jtwan giutrea in er laocgb "sly dear," aha said, drawing ma to the fire, "I never expected to hare the p.'-astire of seeing you. but I have bad reat trouble with my servants the last day or two. My housekeeper. uon whom I absolutely rely, has been cali'-d away to the bedside of a dying friend; and, owing to an unfortunate disagreement amongst the domestic, I find myself very ahorthanded. I have therefor put off my visit until to-morrow, when my hou-'keeper returns. I felt it

was not quite safe to (cava this eatabKahmebt with no ana to keep

order."

I tried to be very sympathetic, for

the -Id lady ntrracteti me. She looked at me very admiringly, ow and again dropping a compliment that gent the blood tingfiag to my cheeks. She toid me I talked well, deciarng it was a pity I had not seen mnf of the world. I said that I was one of a lorpe family, aad therefore unable to travel. She drew from me Involuntarily many of my hopes and aspirations. "We will have our coffee," she said, the Venetian chamber. You arr ore to lose yonr way at first in this house, it Is so queerly built. There

"It ciuiinlj looks very gbostly."'

I 1 id as are sat on a low sofa, com fortal.lv sipping nur coffeo. Th- old lai ' y " - -y t-ftei upon mbeuigiily. "I feel ao happy to-night," she ainr

mured. "You have made :ne realize

how lonely my life is."

She took my band and stroked it

softlv. I half expected to bear her

purr. Then came one of the iu t

startfin.r moments of my life.

Mrs. thepM-rton. whom that ry Jay I hai se. n only for the first

time, made au nmaing proposition.

She to!d me I r-miniJed her very for-

clb'y of a flt-iighter she had lost long

years ,ijo. She expre:d nn intense

desire for my company, and liepjred me to go abroad with her on the folUw ing morning. "It won't lie for very lone." -he declared soothingly. "And I will buy yoti some hvely Parisian clothes If yiur Mardroba i.- insuffic!. nt I will write to your mother to-mrrow. and explain what I have done. I am sure she could not po.-.iily mind, especially as we were introduced hv a mu-

t ..l fri.nd." Somehow I s'ill felt under a spell, and the delightful suggeation proved too tempting. T have always be-a impressionable and somewhat hof he.uled, I fear. Assuring myself that my family coald haac no objeetinn, I joyfully cons- nt- d to a'-eompany Mrs. Shepperton on bar pleasura trip. A we talked over the many delights of foreign travel. I suddenly started forward, grasping her elbow. "What Is the matt- r. child?" she asked.

"I saw a fte-vre." T c:: ped. "hiding in that curtain opposite. I could have declared the form of a mal stood behind the velvet. The outline of his shoulder showed quite dlatinetly." Mrs. Sli ppcrton rted up. tremhl -ig "Tt must have iWn your fancy," she cried, begging me to look behind the curtain: but. of course. tbi waa usclef.1. Had anyone been there, he would have retired through the panel door int, the Iwig-, dark passage beyond. I tri"d to forget what 1 had seen. t"lli Ii lt myself it was only imagination; but the memory haunted me as I went rrp to bed. "Never miad." I thought. "To

morrow you will be far away from thin lonely building." I dreampt of the pleasure of wealth and of the many luxuries I was about

to enjoy. The following moraine Mrs. Shepperton appeared somewhat depreaaed at breakfa-t "T want yon, if you will, my dear." she said, in her soft, cooing eofea, "to do an errand fe-r me on the way to the station. 1 shall drive in a he - d carriage, but yon mtist go round by the town in the victoria, which will be at the door in a few minutes. I need a little spare money

for our traveling expenses. Please go to the hank nnd ehange this check for 1'X), which you must bring me in notes." I took the cheek, and drove away cheerfully, glad to feel I could do her a service. The drive was a very hilly one, and the little town nestled at the

foot of s steep descent. As the carriage proceeded at a -low pa-e. a well dressed man sprang forward, apparently from the hedge, and took off hia hat to me. I felt myself turning very rel. for I hardly knew what to lo. sj ha was a total stranger. Before I had

time to think, he jumped info the

csrrtne-'. and seated himself lieside me. I nervously gTasped the prescious cheek in my hand. "What do yon wnntT" I askedj sternly, quivering with Indignatioa at his impertinent action. "Excuse me. miaa." he said, "but I want that check for loii which yoa are going to cash at the bank." "ion may want it." I said. onsiaced Uli was a caat of highway robbery, "but you Bfeftt get it!" "Don't be alarmed," he answer.!, reading my thoughts. "After all, you are qulta riirht not to give It up. I suppo-e you are unaware that you are being made the vi.-tim of a ery cruel trick?

The duty was not merely vengeance In its low ei form, bet justice or equalisation. ?fo discrimination was made, however, between the murderer by intent and the slayer by a-eiiient. So deep-seat
