Her Husband's Widow By edmund b. d auvergne Leslie, Now Married to Varney and Traveling in the East, Comes Face to Face with Victor Steele in Jerusalem.

SYNOPSIS. Leslie Morne, a governese, goes to walk by the sea and is spoken to by a man she does not know. She is rescued from his attentions by Victor Steele, a sergeant in the British Army, whom she later marries. She finds married life wearisome and refuses to follow Steele to Egypt. Then she hears of his death and conceals the fact that she is a widow. She meets Oswald Varney, rich and of old family, and he asks her to marry him. CHAPTER VIII. It was mid-April, and the sun shone pitilessly upon ruinous, downfallen Jerusalem. Easter had gone, and the great army of tourists were turning their steps homeward. In the dim, shady lounge of the big hotel near the Jaffa Gate, Mrs. Varney, half reclining in a long chair, fanned herself languidly. Opposite her eat a red-bearded Nonconformist minister and his wife, busily inscribing postcards. They had made it no secret that they had been treated to this holiday by the congregationand the cheerful little wife had confessed to Mrs. Varney that she wished the congregation could have made it Switzerland or the Rivera. Then there were two old ladles from Meakminster old maids of a type almost extinct in England. They sat in a corner, holding each other's hands, looking scared and plaintive what did they make of it all? Perhaps they derived some consolation from the neighborhood of Mr. Sawyer, a shy, silent elderly man, who lived in awe of his wife, but never seemed to feel (julte safe out of her sight. In two and a half years of married life Leslie had ripened into a woman of rare beauty. If at odd and infrequent moments you might have caught again somewhat of the old wistfulness In her eyes, generally they smiled at you blithely enough. Her figure though still slim, was softened and rounded into the curves of mature womanhood. Her cheeks were slightly fuller, and faintly bronzed by the ardent southern sun. But her forehead showed white beneath her hair, which was drawn down in two red waves over her ears and knotted low down behind a style which set off admirably the long, flowing line of her neck. It was stuffy in the lounge, and she would have declared herself hot, but she looked pleasantly cool in the white muslin frock and gauze veil affected by English women in the East. Leslie Now a Beautiful Woman. Her personality had ripened also. The butterfly had burst from the chrys nils and warmed its wings in the sunlight. None of their fellow-travelers who envied Varney his beautiful wife or looked askance at her as the ideal, smart, pleasure-seeking society woman of today could have dreamt that four years before she was teaching little urchins their alphabet and washing faces at a salary of $75 a year. She seemed typical of the class to which she now belonged. Her husband, who had never questioned her as to her parentage, had often marvelled secretly at the completeness of her naturalization into his own caste. Her uncle, Jim Morven, had striven in vain during sixteen years to acclimatize himself to the world which he had. entered by means of a golden key. Women are. of course, adaptable, and a fashionable bookshop offers not a few opportunities for assimilating the ideas, the tastes, and the mannerisms of the leisured ojasses; but blood may have had as much to do with it as Leslie herself believed. It gave her at any rate an immense fund of confidence. She had had a very good time these two and a half years a good time onlv interrupted by the ordeal and responsibility Of motherhood. She had missed none of the pleasures which wealth and station are so lavish of to the modern woman. She had enjoyed thAsA vears greedily, mindful of the lean years that had gone before. She dropped her fan and opened her Tauchnitz novel. A shadow fell across the page. Her husband stood before her in a listless attitude, his hands thrust Into his pockets. A reformed rake is said to make a good husband. The Squire of Reves had made up his mind to settle down, and his serenity of soul seemed likely to manifest itself in his outward man. "Well," he said, "here we are in Jerusalem. Don't think much of it now we are hef. Queer Idea of yours, Leslie, coming here instead of going on to Egypt." ; Mrs. Varney compressed her lips and bent over her book to hide the cloud on her face. "We're surely not going to have this all over again?" she said impatiently. "I told you I didn't want to go to Egypt when we Btarted. I don't care for mummies or mosquitoes. Besides, you agreed that the heat would be insupportable at this time of year." ,

f THOSE VUZ. THE

OOD OLD P IT IMiT OLD PM. IM TH DO TOO JJS. KXAN WARD Her husband sank into the chair beside her and yawned. "All right, my dear girl," he acquiesced lazily, "since you prefer this place we'd better have a look at the sights. Thank heaven we've only three days here. Where's the dragoman, Issa, or whatever he calls himself?" "Here I am sir." The dragoman stood bowing before them. "Been to fetch your letters, sir," he said, handing a fairly bulky sheaf to Varney. Leslie snatched eagerly at an envel ope with the postmark of her Kentish home, and the next moment had forgotten her surroundings in a minute account of the exiting experiences and astonishing development of her eight-months-old boy. She had begun to re-read the nurse's letter when her attention was distracted by an exclamation from her husband. "Anything wrong?" she asked carelessly. Since all was right with James Oswald nothing, she felt, could be seriously wrong. "Poor old Wilfred is dead," he announced. She was puzzled for a moment. "Your cousin in Canada?" she asked, to make sure she understood. "Yes. This letter is from a lawyer at some unearthly place" he glanced again at the letter "Moose Jaw! It seems Wilfred' broke his neck, buckJumping or something of that kind, eight or nine months ago, and they have only just discovered his next ofkin. That's me. His estate is valued at $15." "It sounds very sad," remarked Leslie, not knowing exactly how much sympathy was expected of her. Her husband lit a cigar. "I haven't seen Wilfred for over a dozen years," he informed her. "Except once, five years ago, when he came to London for a 'bust,' as he frankly explained. He was 'bust' himself at the end of a week, and I shipped him back to Canada with the relief that one might experience in getting rid of a rhinoceros which one happened to be encumbered with. He was only my third cousin, as I believe I once explained' to you. "On the whole he was my most re spectable relative." Oswald Varney smiled grimly. He looked down at his cigar. "A year ago," he continued, "his death would have worried me a good deal. Before the boy came he was my heir, you see. Now he's dead, that Walter Gaveston, is next in succession after James." Leslie noted the deep shadow of annoyance on her husband's face. "Who is Gaveston?" she inquired wonderingly. "Sir Ralph Gaveston, my dear, is, as far as I know, my only surviving relative. If I never mentioned him to you before it's because I'm ashamed of him. He is the last descendant of the elder branch. He is a baronet and a bad hat. He must be" Varney made a mental calculation, "between fifty and fifty-five by now. I haven't seen him for seven or eight years. I dare say I shall hear from him now!" "You seem rather down on him," observed Leslie, conscious of a very languid interest in this wicked person. "Not without cause. He's a rank outsider. If his famous ancestor was anything like him, then the history books have been all too lenient. I'm l not condemning him for his escapades when he was a youngster, though I have heard some unusual tales. . Varney checked himself and proceeded. "But I do object to a man trading on his position and lending his name and prestige to every swindler who will offer him a few guineas for the use of them. Well, you needn't go into mourning for Wilfred at least not out here." Varney rose and crammed the letters into his pocket. The dragoman was growing restive. "This morning, sir, we visit the Haram, the Temple of Solomon," he announced. "If you Great Demand for New Constipation Remedy They say that the advent of the "sentaael tablet" as a vegetable eubstitute for calomel has resulted In an extraordinary demand for this remarkable product. It earns to have made a hit particularly with those afflicted with chronie constipation, who were juick to recogmiie itm advantages over calomel and the usual laxatives. fientanel tablets, aside from their efficacy, doubtless owe their success largely to a tendency to aid In bringing; about natural functioning Instead of encourajrtngr the "cathartic habit." Also, instead of Injuring the membraneous lining of the organs involved, they exert a healing Influence. Instead of weakening, they add tone to the intestinal wall. And they work so easily and gently, they are of course preferred on this account to the violently acting purgatives. Their lnexpenslvene8S is another reason for the popularity of sentanel tablets. One need procure only a dime's worth, and take one tablet -upon retiring, to be convinced that the ideal remedy for constipation, torpid liver, and their many evil consequences, has finally, been found.

The Durgans were a couple of Americans, father and daughter, with whom the Varneys had made great friends on the ship. In old Durgan, a self-made millionaire of Irish extraction, Leslie fancied she saw a general resemblance of manner and type to her uncle Jim. "Freddie" Durgan was the typical American girl, pretty, sallow, high of cheek-bone, tremendously well informed, vivacious and darine. Alter an exchange of greetings the party set rorth. In Jerusalem you pass with start uug uurupmess rrom blinding sun light into the tomblike gloom of arch es and alleys. They thrust their feet into the clumsy boat-like slippers, without which no one may tread the floor of a Mohammedan sanctuary. They entered the sacred edifice-. It is like no other in the world. Leslie turned aside and leaned in dreamy mood against the balustrade round the rock of sacrifice. She raised her eyes, and, opposite, saw her husband talking with a tall spare man in the khaki uniform and red fez of an Egyptian official. She drew in her breathThe man had his back toward her ,but she knew that the premonition of disaster which had obsessed her was about to be fulfilled. He turned. Their eyes met, and she gripped tightly at the balustrade. The man was Victor Steele. To Be Continued.
