CHAPTER IV.

Mr. Rayner was in the brightest of humors and his first, words dispelled

my fear that he might have overheard the warning that Mr. Reade had ^asfc given me. He caught sight of me tirst. "At last, Miss Christie! It was a happy thought of mine to look for you here. But now in the world did you discover this place of refuge?" Then, turning, he saw my companion. "Hallo, Laurence! Ah, this explains the mystery! You have been playing knighterrant, I see, and 1 am too late in the field but I shall carry off the lady, after all. My wife noticed that you started without your ulster. Miss Christie, and sent me off with it to meet you."

The rain soon began to fall less heavily, and we seized the opportunity e. We all went toic park gates, where Mr. Ileado left us. "Nice young fellow that," said Mr. Rayner, as soon as the other was out of ear-shot. ''Handsome, frank and good-natured. He is worth all the rest of his family put together.

I assure you there are plenty of people in this parish who have condemned me to eternal punishment because I play the violin." "Do you play the violin? Oh, I am 80 fond of it!" "Arc you? Poor child, you had better not acknowledge the taste as long as you remain in this benighted spot they class it with the black art. However, you shall hear my violin some evening, and give mo your opinion of it."

piain stucK-up nonentities

As wo entered the garden gates 1 saw a woman's figure on our right. 1 could not recognize her on account of the darknoss, and only guessed it was Mrs. Rayner. Tho idea of those great weird eyes watching mo made mo uncomfortable. Mr. Rayner did not look that way and left mo in tho hall, going to his study, whilo I went into our little scliool-rooxn to put my church service away.

Tho French window had

Sho turned round sharply, "Another situation! Me!" "Yes, you. Though I should bo sorry to part with such an old servant, yet one may keep a servant too long." "Olds 1 wasn't always old!" sho broke out, passionately. "Therefore you wero not always in receipt of such good wages as you get now. Now go in and get tea ready. And take care tho toast is not burned again." 1,could see thai sho glared at him with her great black eyes like a tigress at bay. but she did not dare to answer again, but slunk away cowed into the house. 1 was not surprised, for the tone of cold command with which he spoko those last insignificant words inspired nie with a sudden senso of fear of him, with feeling that I was face to face with an irresistible will, such as 1 should have thought it impossible for light-hearted Mr. Rayner to Inspire.

The whole scene had puzzled me a little. What did Sarah the housemaid want to ktiuid like a spy in the shrub* bory forP How had Mr. Rayner seen and recognised her without seeming to look in that direction? Was there any deeper meaning under the words that had passed between them? Tnere was suppressed passion in tho woman's manner which could hardly havo been stirred by her master's oruers to keep to the garden paths and not to burn the toast and there was a hard decision in Mr. Rayner's which I had never noticed before, even when he was seriously displeased. If he were to speak tome in tho tone that he had used to Sarah, 1 felt that I should run away or burst into tears, or do something equally foolish. At tea-time Mr. Rayner was as bright as usual, and laughingly declared that they should never trust me to go to church by myself again.

That night 1 pondered Mr. Readers warning to me to leave tho Aiders* but I soon decided that tho question was quite unpractical. For, in fact, there was no tangible reason I could offer for wishing to jzt. The dangers Mr. Reade nad hinted at so rague.lv could not bo mention ml so long as tliey existed only as his suspicions. My father was deatl and ray mother had been left with but little to live upon. She had .been glad to accept an offer to superintend the household of a brother who had recently lost his wife. My uncle, I knew, would give me a home while I sought a situation, but experience had taught me how few people wanted the services of "A young lady aged eighteen who preferred children under twelve." Besides, what a bad recom

mendation it would be to have left my first situation within a month. Sol decided to remain where I certainly was. on the whole, well off.

The next morning I could not help noticing how much better I was looking than when I lived in London. Instead of being pale I had now a pink color in my cheeks, and my eyes seemed to look larger and brighter than they used to do. After a minute's pleased contemplation of my altered appearance I turned from the glass in shame. What would my mother say if she could see how vain her daughter was growing? Without another look I went down stairs. Mr. Rayner was alone in the dining-room. He* put down his newspaper ana smiled at me. "Come into the garden for a few minutes until the rest of the family assembles," said he and I followed him to the lawn.

The morning sun left this side of the house in shade. The birds were twittering in the ivy, the dew was sparkling on the grass and the scent of the flowers was deliciously sweet.

Looks pretty, doesn't it?" said Mr. Rayner Fietty', It looks and smells like Paradise

closed, and I walked up to it to see whether tho rain had come in. Tho sky was still heavy with rain-clouds, so that it was quito dark indoors, and whilo I eoukl plainly see tho woman I had noticed stepping over tho flowerbeds on the lawn, and making her way to tho front of tho house, she could not sco me. When she came noar enough for mo to distinguish her figure, I saw that it was not Mrs. Rayner, but Sarah, tho housemaid. I stood rather in awe of this woman she was so tall and so thin, and had such big eager eyes and such a curiously constrained manner. She was only a few steps from the window where I stood completely hidden by tho curtain, when Mi*. Rayner passed quickly and caught her arm from behind. Sho stopped short with a sort of gasp. "What wero you doing in the shrubbery just now, Sarah?" ho asked, quietly. "If you want to take fresh air in tho garden, you must keep to the lawn and the paths. By walking over tho bods you do damago to tho flowers— and to yourself. If you can not remember" theso simple rules, you will have to look out for another situation."

I mean—" I stopped and

blushed, afraid he would think the speech profane. But he only laughed very pleasantly. I was smelling a rose while I tried to recover the staid demeanor I cultivated as most suitable to my profession. When I raised my eyes, he was looking at mo still laughing. "You are fond of roses?" "Yes, very, Mr. Rayner."' "But don't "you think it was very silly of Beauty to choose pnly a rose when her father asked her what he should bring her? Now if you were Beauty what would you ask papa to bring you? A Prince?"

I blushed and shook my head. "No, not yet," I said, smiling rather mischievously. "A ring, a bracelet, a broochp "No. Mr. Rayner. I should say a rose like Beauty—a beautiful Marshal Niel rose. I couldn't think of anything lovelier than that."

That is a large pale yellow rose, isn't it? I can't get it to grow here." We had sauntered back to the din-ing-room window, and there, staring out upon us in a strange fixed way, was Mrs. Rayner. She continued to look at us, and especially at me, as if fascinated, until we were close to the window, when she turned with a start and when we entered the room the intent expression^ had faded from her lusterless eyes, and sho was her usual lifeless self again.

At dinner time Mr. Rayner did not appear 1 was too shy to ask Mrs. Rayner the reason, and I could only guess, when tea tirtie came and again there was no piano laid for him, that he had gone away somewhere. I was sure of it when ho had not reappeared the next morning, and then I became consoious of a slow but sure chahge in Mrs. Rayners's manner. She did not become talkative or animated like any other woman but it was as if a statue of stone had become a statue of flesh, feeling tho life in its own veins and grown conscious of tho lifo around it. This change brought one strange symptom she had grown nervous. Instead of wearing always an unruffled stolidity, she started at any unexpected sound. This change must certainly, I thought, be duo to her husband's de-

Eis

arture but it was hard to tell whether absenco made her glad or sorry, or whether any such vivia feeling as gladness or grief caused tho alteration in her manner.

On tho second day of Mr. Rayner's absence Sarah came to the school-room, saying that a gentleman wished to speak to me. In the drawing-room I found Mr. Laurence Reade. "I have come on business with Mr. Rayner, but as ho is out I ventured to trouble you with a commission for him, Miss Christie." "I don't know anything about business," I began. "Perhaps Mrs. Rayner"— "O I couldn't trouble her with so small a matter." And he disclosed the naturo of liis errand, which was of trilling importance. Considering this fact he occupied a great deal of tame in it. He talked about Sunday, and hoped I had not caught cold and then ho went away. And I found, by the amount of hemming Haideehad got through when I went back to the school-room, that he had stayed quite along time.

Nothing happened after that until Saturday, which was the day on which I generally wrote to my mother. After tea I took my desk up-stairsto my own room. I had not written many lines before I heard the faint tone of a violin. At first I could distinguish only a few notes of the mclpdy, then there was a pause and a sound asof an opening window after that Schubert's beautiful "Aufenthalt" rang out dearly and held me as if enchanted. It must be Mr, Rayner come back. I had not thought, when he said he played the violin, that he could play like that. I must hear better. I shut up my halffinished letter hastily in my desk and slipped down-stairs with it. I stole sorty through the hall, and as I passed the drawing-room door Mr. Rayner, without pausing in his playing, cried: ••Come in!" I was startled by this, for 11 made no noise but I put my desk down on the hall table and went in. I Mrs. Ravner and Haidee were there, the former with & handsome shawl, 1 brought by her husband, on a chair beside ner. and my puj pll bolding a big S wax doll which she was not looking at the child never eared for her atolls.

Mr. Rayner, looking handsomer than ever, sunburnt, with his chestnut hair In disorder, smiled at me, and said, without stopping the music: "I have not forgotten you. There Is a wmoemr of your dear London for and nodded toward a rough wooden box, nailed down.

I opened it with pooh difficulty 1ft

was from Convent Garden, and in it, lying among ferns and cotton-wool, were a dozen heavy beautiful Marshal Kiel roses. I sat playing with them in an ecstacy of pleasure, intoxicated with music and flowers, until Mr. Rayner put away his violin, and I rose to say good-night. "Lucky Beauty?" he said,, landing, as he opened the door for me. 'vThere is no beast for you to sacrifice yourself to in return for the roses.1' *j

I laughed back and left the room, and, putting my desk under my flowers, went toward the staircase. Sarah was standing near the foot of it, wearing a very forbidding expression. "So you're bewitched too!" she said, with a short laugh, and turned sharply toward the servant's halL

And I wondered what she meant, and why Mr. and Mrs. Rayner kept in their service such a very rude and disagreeable person./:

f^/fcHAPTEK V. £ff-

The next day was Sunday, to which I had begun to look forward eagerly, as a bleak in the monotonous round of days. After service I heard Mr. Rayner telling the doctor and two of the farmers about the races he had been to the week before, and of his having won fifteen pounds. He asked Mrs. Reade whether her husband was ill—as he was not at church—and did not seem at all affected by the cool manner in which she answered him. "I had the pleasure'of lunching with a relative of yours, Mrs. Reade, on tho course at Newmarket last week—Lord Bramley. He is a cousin of yours, is he not?-

'Hardly a cousin, but he is connected with my family, Mr. Rayner," she answered, more graciously. "He thinks more of the connection than you seem to do, for he asked me particularly how you were. I told him you never looked better than when I saw you last."

And Mrs. Reade was still talking to Mrs. Rayner, with more affability in her haughtiness, when Haidee and I started on our walk home.

At dinner Mr. Rayner gave us part of their conversation, with an excellent parody of the lady's manner and a funny exaggeration of the humility of his own.

On that afternoon I was scarcely outside the gate on my way to church when ho joined me. "No, no, Miss Christie we are not going to trust you to go to church by yourself again.

When we passed tho park, I saw Mr. Laurence Reade, dressed for church* finishing a cigar, with his back againstf a tree. I had never seen him loojc cross before, and I thought it a pity that lie should spoil his nice kind lace by such a frown and I wondered whether he was ill-tempered, and, if not, what had annoyed him.

After seeing Mr. Reade dressed for church I naturally expected him to come, and I had an absurd feeling like disappointment as the service feegaji and ne did not appear. 1 caught mt self looking up whenever the dojr creakecf ana a late worshiper came hi But he did not come. w_

Tho heat, and my annoyance ove#) this absurd triflo, distracted my attention so I hardly heard a word of the sermon. Presently I noticed that Mr. Rayner, who always looked more devout than any one in the church, was really asleep all the time. When he remarked, as wo were walking homo after the service, that the sermon was

fiood

of its kind, I had to turn my

And how did you like the sermon?" "I—I wasn't listening much, Mr Rayner."

Not listening! A religious little girl like you not listening! I'm surprised—I really am."

His manner grew suddenly so grave, and he really seemed so much surprised, that I felt called upon to make a sort of profession.

I'm not really religious," I said, hurriedly. But I do respect religious people very much, and I hope some day I shall bo able to enter into their feelings better than I can now I do pray for it," 1 ended, almost in a whisper.

Mr. Rayndr took my hand very kindly. "It will come, child, it will come,"

time." He said it so simply, without any attempt at preaching, that I felt I looked up to him more naturally than even to a clergyman. And when, after tea, he asked me to accompany his violin on the piano while he played Mozart's Twelfth Mass, tho fervor which he put into the beautiful music inspired me with a corresponding exaltation of feeling, such as no sacred music had ever woke in me before. At the end of the evening Mr. Rayner held out his hand with a grave smile. "You are the best accompanist ihavc ever met you eaten tbe spirit ot tins sacred music perfectly. To-morrow night I shall prove whether you are so accomplished a reader of secular music. Good-night, my dear child."

And he bent down to kiss me. But Ie vaded him, trying at the same time to make my movement seem unconscious ana, with a smiling "Goodnight," I left the room.

As soon as I had done so my heart sunk within me. "What had I done? Probably offended Mr. Rayner beyond recall by what must seem to him an absurdly strained piece of prudery. It looked as if I thought myself a person of such attraction that he wanted to kiss me to please himself, instead of an insignificant little gM whom he was to kiss good-naturedly, as he might have done if he had been her father. But then he was not my father, and not nearly old enough to be so, however paternal and kind his manner might be. So I comforted myself as well as! could with the thought that, after all, I had done only what waa right and prudent and, a he was offended, well, there was help lor it

Tbe next morning, to my great relief, his manner waa just the same ($

usual. 1 wondered whether I should be summoned to the drawing-room to accompany him on the violin, as he had spoken on the previous night of wishing me to do. But at tea he was much preoccupied and told Sarah that a gentleman would be coming to see nim presently, who was to be shown into the study.

As he turned to say this, I noticed a gudden flash of horror pass over Mrs. Rayner's pale features, and disappear in a moment befor* her husband could see her face again and I thought I saw on Sarah's dark face a look of intelligence when the order was given her, as if she too knew something about the expected visitor. I tried not to think any more about it I was very anxious to improve myself, so I might be able to take an engagement as a finishing

overness. I had a chapter to read in French History but that was pleasant, easy work, and mieht be enjoyed ^n the garden. I had seen the stranger as I was crossing the hall after tea. He was a small, slight man, with a fair mustache, who might be old or young, and, although he wore only a gray traveling-suit, ho gave one the impression of being very well dressed indeed. I had forgotten all about him long before I made my way, with a hpavy volume of history in my arms, to the pond, near the prettiest, reediest corner of which I had made myself a nice little nest. There was here a willow-tree which had been forced by an aggressive oak to grow in a slanting position, and one of its lowest brauches hung parallel to the ground. This made my scat, and a

Eranch

iece of cord fastened from branch to afoot and a'half above made a rest for my back. I read my Guizot, conscientiously hunting out in the dictionary all the words I did not know, until tho light began to fade, and I was thinking it was timo to go in, when I heard voices that seemed to be coming toward me from the house. The speakers, a man and a woman, were passing along a path near where I sat.

I concluded tow ait until they had gone by before I went in. I could not see them, nor could they see me, I knew. When they came a little nearer, I recognized Sarah's voice the other was that of a man of a class much higher than her own. Could it be the stranger? He was talking familiarly and seriously with hoi*. Sarah was speaking in a tone of bitter complaint, and the first words I heard were hers. "I won't stand it much longer—and so I tell you." "Tell him my dear Sally—if you dare. And now„oblige me by speaking a little lower

Sho began again in a lower voice, but in the same tone,'and, from the occasional words I heard—for I could not help listening—I gathered that she was angry because some unknown "he"

aid to much attention to some un"her." But I could guess who they were. Sarah had an ^admirer, a man some years younger than heraelf, who lived along way off—and who paid her visits at irregular intervails. Mr. Raynor took great interest in this love-affair, and derived much amusement from it he had somehow discovered that the admirer, whose name was Tom PaVkes, warf inclinod to pay more attention than was meet to the kitchenmaid, Jane and it was Mr. Rayner's opinion that thero would be very little loft of Jane if she encouraged tho fickle swain's attention.

So Sarah was giving vent to her jealousy in an earnest and intimate conversation with her master's guest It seemed a very strange proceeding. "Look what I've done for him think how I've worked for him!" sho said. "He would never be where he is now if it wasn't for me. Does he think his new fancy will plan for him and plot for him, and lisk—" "Hush, hush—don't speak so loud! Where's your old discretion, SallyP" "Let him look for discretion in Miss Baby, with her round face and her child's eyes. Does he think he can make use of her? Nonsense! It wants a woman that's strong in her head and strong in her limbs to do the work he wants done, and„not a soft little chit like that!" "Depend upon it, ho is only amusing himself with the little simpleton," the man said, soothingly.

But she interrupted him in atone of half-suppressed savagery that made me shudder. "Amusing himself, do you say? Looking at ner, talking to her, not because he wants to make use of her, but becauso he likes her, loves her"—she hissed—"as ho has never loved any of his poor tools, though they were handsomer a thousand times than this wretched girl! If I thought that, I'd spoil her beauty for her, and for him, if 1 hanged for it!" i,

The man spoke again, this time very gravely. "Sally, don't do anyting foolish," said he. "Jim isn' a foot, and he knows how to repay services like yours. Why, he might have thrown it he re he 1 could hear no more they had gems too far. I waited till their voices had died away, and then dashed from my perch, through the plantation up to my room, locked the door and sat down appalled.

What a terrible tragedy in the servants' hall we were likely to have if things went on like this! If Mrs. Rayner nad been only a woman, not a statue, I would have confessed all to her but, as it was, it would do no good. It was not the sort of thing I could tell Mr. Rayner. There was nothing for it but to hope that little. Jane would be wise and leave off provoking Sarah, and that Providence woula bring Sarah herself to a better mind.

But what a dreadful woman to have In the house! And why had the stranger spoken of Tom Parkes as "Jim?"

The West Point hotel, on the United States grounds, and CozzensYa mile below, are full of strangers, some of whom are there to see a relative or friend among the graduates take his diploma. vThe plain is dotted with the pretty costumes of young girls who are up early for guard mounting, and never miss a dress parade.

I have read so much about Mr. Blaine's poor health during the past few years, and have so often found the reports untrue, that if I were to read in the papers that lie had been stricken with paralysis, or had been given up by his doctors, I would not believe it till I liad seen him with my own eyes.
