But a solemn sllene t When they leaked upon the white on J apparently dead face turned upward to the stormy sky, sad every few seconds Illuminated hy the awful glare of the lightning. "He's a de!d man," said Jamie presently, In low, awe-stricken voice. "The: a :o use carrying niai up to the house, missis; It's wasted labor." "No. no! ! i BS i tell you," said the giri. with an imperionsneas she could BSC at tin;e-. "There nay still be life in him we do not know and God may spare it. Carry Mm into the house, and then run down to Mr. Banks, Jamie, and ask him to let yea addle his horse and ride to Crag Casus as fast as ever you can for the do;'t 01 Her orders were obeyed. In less than ten minutes the unconscious man was lying on the couch in the sittinsroom. and Jamie was hurrying to Fanner Bank's, sorely against his will, though the storm ws already beginning t j a!:;te. Meanwhile B11, who had not been in a doctor's household for twenty years for nothing, tried, with such simple remedies as she could tiiink d. to re?.)io the young man to consciousness. But all her efforts were of no avtii Hip deathly pallor, the tixed rigidity of that Strong face still remained nabroken. "I fear 1 fear," said Bell, standin.; Op and BBakiag her head at last, "there's not mach hope h re, .Miss Day. Ay, It's a sad tiling, such a nohle-look-ing young fellow as he is. and a g-'n-tleman, as any one may Vre. Weil, I've lone all I can. so you'd better come away, dearie, and leave him till the doctor tomes.' "I shall stay here with him. Bell. You can go and see about your work," paid the girl quietly. "He might come out of it. yen know; and it wruld be terrible if there was no one beside him when he recovered consciousness." "Just as you please. Miss Day." said the faithful Bell. Bat she shook her head as she went out of the room, muttering: "Ah. the poor bairn! she has not seen death as often as I have." Day sat perfectly still in her ( hair a little distance away from the couch, with her eyes fixed on the face lying on the cushion. Something in it fascinated and almost mesmerized her. She could not withdraw her eyes. So yoang a face it was. so handsome, so refined! And only half an hour ago the owner had been full of youthful strength and ergy, and had perhaps been thinking, as he aped along that long country road, of many a plan and scheme for his future iif. And now he lay there, cold and still, and they said Be was dead. Oh. it could not be! it could net! A low cry burst almost involuntarily from Day's lips, and, rising from her seat) she went to the eooch, falling on her knees beside it. and covering her face with her hands "Cod have mercy!" she prayed, speaking aloud la her passionate earnestness. Her head snni lower, and for a long time she ti mained kneeling thus, feeling the warm tears ran down bn t cheeka and drop on the cushion on which the unconscious man's head rested the tcais of pity for the unknown and lonely stranger, whose friends could not weep for him because they did not know what had befallen him. Suddenly Day fancied sä ! fell a motion beside her, BS if the man bad sighed or drawn a long breath. With s nervous start she looked op quickly. The eyes in the midst of that deathly pals face -H was no less pale than before were v.ide open, and staring at her with strange fixity. For a raomeat a vague, powerless, saperstltioos fear rushed over Day's soul, seeming to clutch her heart in an icy grasp. The face was still so like that of dead man, and the eyes seemed to hav no sight in them. Then she summoned her brave, womanly spirit to her aid. and. putting out her hand, gently placed It on his. "Don't apeak," she said, very softly. And Day Halcrow'i votes was one of the sweetest in the world when modulated by pity and sympathy. "You hz-d a nasty fall from your bicycle, you

'These dark, brooding eyes still jrn:cd at her, never once removing their glam e from hi r face. The gase frightened IJy. but she BBade another brave effort. "Von a. e ::T!!c.:;2: friends he re, you ' Dow; so you don't need to he anxious or disturbed a' out anything. We shad take care of you until you are qui,n better." "Thanh yon " said the str.-.r.ger ;tt last, speaking in i deep, toneless voice. He hesitated for a long time, then at !: : added: '"And God bless you for for what you have done. Yon have been hind. 1 cannot thank you now the w nrds srlll not come: but. If God rparea me, presently." Then he T:.y.-ed into silence again: cad, as his eves closed, Day stole aoftly from the room to stimmen Bell, Meantime Magnus Halcrow was at Cmg Castle. Th Westrsya -f Crag Castle had been lords of tt- s:di for generations past, and were also proprietors i4 many broad acres on the Scottish mainland; but bow a time had come when the heritage Of many brave and darirg men had fallen into the b rads cf a girl, and Lillth Stuart queened ü at (hag Castle. ft was thn Dowager Lady Wast ray B distant relative of Miss Stuart's, who also acted aa her chaperon whom Dr. Magnus Halcrow bad come to visit professionally; but his patient was not yet able to see him, and he was now seated In Miss Stuart's dainty boudoir, drinking a cup of afternoon tea. poured rut by her own slim, white hands, "It is so oppressively In t that I feel : as if even tea drinking were an effort," she said, smiling - and Ltlith Stuart's j smile was a wonderful one as she , handed him his cup. What was the secret of LiHth i Stuart's strange power over him? Kane j could say or. rather, every one as- ! signed it to a different cause. Her j female acquaintances denied that Lil- . Ith was beautiful and certainly her ; features were not perfect; yet there was a strange, subtle fascination, far j greater than that of beauty, in the 1 half- closed, slumbrous, blue-back eyes. I usually so modestly veiled by their j Ion:; dark lashes, but sometimes flash - ; ing a look of bewildering, maddening j brightness upon those who had been j patiently waiting for it; in the droop I of the soft, red mouth, whose winde expression was so oddly ( hanged when she smiled; above all, in the smile itself. The face was fair and somewhat pale; the hair of a ruddy, auburn hue. There were those who called Ltlith Stuart a modern Cleopatra, and those who gave her even more unpleasant names; hut as those were mostly discarded lovers, their opinions were not to be trusted. And Magaaa Halcrow, that great, noble, simple-minded son of the Vikings of old, had also fallen a prey to Lilith's strange fascination. He himself knew it. and chafed at the knowledge: for he was proud and independent, and could never stoop to sue for I that which was so far above him. ' I think a thunderstorm is not far j off. and I am glad; i will clear the ! air." he said, in answer to Lilith's re : marks. "O, I hope not! I hate thunderstorms; j I am so afraid!"' cried Lillth. Ehren as she spoke there was a vivid ! flash, and in a few moments the storm t broke in all its fury. CHAPTER IV. Lilith's face turned pale, and her lips quivered as if In abject terror. Fear is not an ennobling expression on the human countenance; and it was so altogether foreign to Magnus HalcTOW's nature that for a moment he experienced a sensation not altogether flattering as he saw it depicted in Lilith's. As Bash succeeded flash sbe caught ula arm nervously and . lung to it. Magnus was sitting lose to the window. She drew him away. "Oh, it is awful! Do come bach from the window; I am so frightened -so horribly frightened! What if it were to strike us? How awful to die so suddenly!" "There is no danger. Miss Stuart," -aid Magnus soothingly. 11. yielded to her pressure on his arm. and allowed himself to be drawn from the window towards the couch on which Lilith had been sitting. Lilith still clung to his arm. "Oh, I know you are good and brave, ami you think mo a coward! Well, I dare say I am weak and cowardly and Womanish. I wish I were brav'. I wish you could teach me to be brav, as you are!" There was a momentary lull in the storm, ami Lilith's words, spoken in that low. subtle-sweet voice of hers, were distinctly audible to Mamius. His pulse thrilled, his heart throbbed. Lilith's face was close to his shoulder so ( lose that, by putting out his hand, he could have drawn her within his arm; he could almost feel bei brea'h upon his cheek. It was a temptation. Lilith strangely appealed to the sensuous part in Magnus' nature for every human being

s

has a twofold nature, one part spiritual, the other sensuous and material; but whether Magnus would have yielded to it or not was never known, for at that moment the door opened gently and another girl came in. Magnus rcse to his feet, a slight flush on his face. It was impossible to say whether the new-comer noticed it or not. She extende 1 her hand calmly. "Lady Westray is able to see you now. Dr. Halcrow." she said. Magnus knew Klspeth Troil well. They had played together as children, and Klspeth was not far from his own age. which was twenty-six. She had beet) the n&ly child Of the Manse at Finstray in those days, Now both parents were dead, and for five years Elspeth had been part companion, part secretary to Lady West ray. Now that Lady West ray was no longer lady of the manor, but that lady's chaperon for the widow of the late Sir James had been left poor -Elspet h occupied a somewhat anomalous position. She was a tall, slender girl, with a grave, thoughtful face, whose only

i beauty lay in the eyes dark brown. soft and earnest. They looked at Magnus often with an expression whos? meaning he could not fathom, but which made him vaguely uneasy. He rose to follow her from the room. As he did so there was a startling glare of light, and overhead a rattling peal, which bcemed to shake the whole house. Lilith uttered a cry and clung to Magnus. "Oh. don't go! don't leave me alone! Lady West ray can wait; there is no hurry r 'Lady Westray is nervous about the thunderstorm, Miss Stuart," said Elspe, h. In her quiet tones, which might have almost seemed emotionless if it were do1 for certain flash in her brown eyes, which Magnus caught .s she raised them for one moment, and then l t them fall again. "That is why she wishes to see Dr. Halcrow at once." "Hut you are keeping her company!" Lillth t ried. Then she raised her imploring eyes to Magnus face. What man could resist that look? "Miss Troil will stay with you. lilss Stuart. There is nothing to be afraid of," said Magnus, gently loosening her bold. '"You know my first duty is to my patient." "Duty? Ah. what an unpleasant word that is!" said Lilith. "But I have no right to detain you: only you wi'l come back before you leave the castle?" "'I shall come back!" Magnus replied gravely. Then he left the room. But he had barely escaped from Lady Westray. who was a nervous, selfi-'i hypochondriac, for whom no one had any affection save Klspt th Troil. when the messenger arrived from Abbot's Head, covered with Perspiration and pale with fright. Magnus was met on his way to Lilith's sitting-room by a footman with the mes.-age. "It's a matter of life end death, sir. the young man bade me tell you," said the pompous functionary. -Tell him to return to Abbot's Hea 1 at once, and I shall overtake him," said Dr. Magnus. He snatched a moment to say farewell to Lilith. who was still sitting in a corner of her room hiding her eyes from every flash of lightning; while Klspeth Troil bent her dark eyes over a heavy seam. For Elspeth. as Magnus knew well, was never idle, but employed all the time she could spare from Lady Westray in working for the poor. "doing? All, it is unkind it is positively cruel of you!" said Lilith when Magnus announced his intention. "And in such a storm! Must I exercise my worn, n's right, and forbid it?" "You will not. Miss Stuart, I am sure," said Magnus, holding her hand fast and feeling his pulse thrill, ' when you know duty calls me away." (To be Continued.) WHEAT FIELDS OF THE FUTURE Siberia May Soon Be a Competitor in the Worlds Markets. From the iew York Commercial Advertiser: No doubt the opening of tho wheat bearing regions of Siberia to settlement will compel revised estimates of our own contribution of this cereal to the markets of Europe, if not the amount grown for home use. The London Morning Post publishes an acc( tint of the progress of the trans-Siberian railroad, in which it is asserted that by the end of next month the road will be completed as far as Irkutsk, and that the Russian governnu .it. will transport 200,00) peasants to fertile belts along the road for the purpose of CUltlvatiBg wheat. At the same time railway communication with the northern seaport of archangel is being made, with the object of Biding (heap cultivation by (heap transportation to the European markets. The government will aid these peasant colonists with implements. and will require only a tithe of their produce as rent. The resull of this experiment is practically certain to cau&e a change in existing wheal areas. Russia has been oar chief competitor in the Liverpool wheal market hitherto, although Argentina and India hive also been asserting themselves, but th new accession of wheat growing area will give Russia an advantage difficult to offset. Unless our agricultural interests are prepared to meet the threatened competition serious times are ahead for those farmers of the w st and northwest whose chief source of wealth is their wheat fields.
