It was the elfish baby-girl Mona who first put mc on the track of the solution of the mystery about Mr. Rayner'^ room. This ill-cared for little creature instead of resenting the neglect with which she was treated prized the liberty of roaming whithersoever she pleased and making herself altogether the dirtiest little girl I had ever seen—at meal times she grew hungry and would return to the house of lier own accord.
It was to his studio then that Sarah had taken his violin. I had never heard of this studio beforo but I knew that Mr. Rayner was very careful about tho condition of tho. stables, and I could imagine that this two-windowed upper room, with its lire, must be a very nico place to paint in—dry, warm ana light. Could this be where Mr. Rayner sleptP No for in that case he would hardly have asked mo to come up and look at his painting. And I should not like to think that ho had made for himself a snug warm little homo hero while his family slept in the damp vapors of tho marsh at tho bottom of uio hill. Yot I should have liked,in tho face of Mr. Reade's tiresome suspicions, to bo sure.
On tho following night there was a high wind, which made tho door which stood always fastened back at the top of tho kitchen stairs rattle and creak on its hinges. At last I could boar this last sound no longer. I had boon sitting up lato over a book, and I knew that thehousehold must bo asleep so I slipped down-stairs softly as I could. I had rot to tho ton of tho back staircaso and had my hand on tho door, whon I saw a faint glimmer of light coming along tho passage below. I heard no sound. I drew back quickly, so quickly that my candle went out: and then I waited, with my neart beating fast, not so much to seo who it was, as because I did not dare to move. Tho faint light came along swiftly, and I could seo that it was a shaded lantern, and could jitst distinguish the fbrm of a man carrying it. For tho next few momonts I scarcely dared to breathe, and I could almost have given a cry of joy whon, by some movement of tho head, I recognized Mr. Rayner. Ho did not seo mo ho put tho key in tho lock, turned it, took tho key out, wont through and locked it after him so quickly and so entirely without noise that a moment afterward I could almost have thought that I had imagined the dim scene. It had been so utterly without sound that, if my eyes had been closed, I should havo known nothing about it. I made tho door secure with trembling lingers, and went baok to my room again, not only profoundly sorry that Mr. Reade's surmise was correct—for I could no longer doubt that Mr. Rayner did sleep over the stables—but impressed with an eerie dread of the man who could move about in the night as noiselessly and swiftly as a spirit
When I awoke, however, in tho fresh morning, with the wind gone down, aud the sun shining in through mv east window, nil unpleasant im-

The day after the violin playing was very wet and looking out of the window I saw Mona trotting composedly along a path which led to the stables, without a hat through the fast falling moldy-looking drawing S^uTt haps Mrs. Rayner tbougft
stables were built much higher
tip than the house, close to the road, but surrounded by trees. I had never been near them before but now I followed Mona close underneath the walls. I seized and caught her up in my arms so suddenly that for the first few moments she was too much surprised to howl but I had scarcely turned to take her back to tho house when she recovered her powers com pletely, and made the plantation ring with a most elfish yell. I spoke to her and tried to reason with her, and told her it was all for her good, when one of the upper windows was thrown open, and Mr. Rayner appeared at it. "Hallo, what is tlie matterP Kidnapping, Miss ChristieP" "Oh, Mr. Rayner, she will sit in the mud and open tier mouth to batch the rain, without a hat, and it can't be good for her!" I said piteously. "Never mind. It doesn't seem to hurt her. I beliovo she is half a frog," said her father, with less tenderness than he might have shown, I thought. "But you will get your own feet wet, my doar child," said he, in quite a different tono. "Como up here and sit by the fire, while I fetcn your gal oches. You have never seen my studio. I pass half my time painting- and smoking hero when it is wot and I can't get out. You don't mind the smell of turpentine or tobacco, do you?" "Oh, no, Mr. Rayucr! iiut I won't como in, thank you. I am at lessons with Haidee," said I. And I returned to the house with Mona.

not know for his sleeping far out of tfco damp, as for every thing else that ho did. He proposed to paint me, and I gave him a citting that very afternoon in tho dining-room, which had a north light, though there was not much of it and he said that he must finish it next day In his studio, and, when 1 objected to neglect my lessons again, he said the whole family should emigrate thither for the morning, and then perhaps I should bo satisfied. 80 tfao next day, at eleven o'clock* he came into the school-room with Mn.

For the floor was polished, and there were two beautiful rugs, a handsome-tiger-skin, and a still handsomer
lionr-
skin with the head attached. At one upon my reluctance, as if Ikad A
end of the room was a partition, and behind this partition I guessed that Mr. Rayner slept. There was a bright fire burning in the tiled fireplace, and there were soft easy-chairs rather worn by constant use, but very comfortable, and there were pictures on the walls, and there was a dark carved-oak cabinet full of curious and beautiful things, and a writing-table and lastly there were the easel and a great confusion of portfolios and half-finished sketches and studies. Altogether the room contrasted very favorably with -room. Perso as she sat down, with one eager intent look round the room, as if she had never seen it before and then, without any remark, she took out her knitting, and worked silently, while I posed again as I had done on the previous day, with, my head on one side, and my hands, as Mr. Rayner had placed them clasped under my chin, while he painted and talked.
After two hours' work, Mr. Rayner called us to look at his sketch, which represented a very lovely girl with dark gray eyes a little larger than mine, a red-lipped mouth a little smaller, teeth a little whiter, and a complexion a little creamier in the white parts and a little rosier in the red and the brown hair coiled on the top was just a little glossier and smoother than mine ever was. It was just a little like me all the same and I was rather hurt when Mrs. Rayner summoned spirits enough to say that he had flattered me, although I knew it quite well. But Mr. Rayner said that it was impossible for a portrait to flatter a handsome woman, and Mrs. Rayner raised lior thin shoulders in a slight shrug and turned to leave the room. "You are an excellent model, you sit so still. It is a pleasure to paint you for that and—for other reasons," said he, slowly and deliberately. "What shall I give wu as a reward for remaining so lonj without blinking or yawning as all professional models
"Nothing, Mr. Rayner I like having it done. It flatters one's vanity to be painted and flattery is always reward enough for a woman, they say," said I, laughing and following Haidee to the door. 'T shall find something more substantial than that," said Mr. Rayner, in a low voice, as if half to himself, looking up with a very kind smile as I left the room.
That afternoon Haidee had just left the school-room when Mr. Rayner came in. He held in his hand an old and shabby little cas$ "The poor painter has not forgotten his promise," said ho, with mock humility. "Now see what you have earned by sitting still."
He drew me to my window and opened the case, keeping his eyes fixed upon my face as he aid so. The case was lined with old and worn red velvet, and had evidently nots been made for the ornament it contained. This was a large pendant In the form of a heart, which was a blaze of what seemed to me the most magnificent diamonds I had ever seen. The sigftt of them inspired me not with pleasure, but terror. I drew a long breath of surprise and admiration. "It is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen," said I at last, not quite able to take in yet the fact that it was meant for me, and hoping against hope that it was not. "You like diamondsP" said he, in a low voice. "They are lovely—the most beautiful of all jewels, I think," said I, with a break in my voice. "Would you like to have your hair and neck and arms covered with diamonds, like a duchess at court P" asked he.
I looked up and laughed with rather an effort. "IP Oh, no! I shouldn't care for diamonds myself I should look absurd in them. Diamonds are for great ladles, not for governesses." "Well, without being a great lady, a

may wear an ornament she
as fairly may she not?" "Yes, if it has been fairly earned," said I, trying to keep up a light tone of talk, though my heart was beating fast. "And so you can accept this pretty little thing as the reward of your services to a grateful painter and a souvenir of our pleasant morning

Altogether, the beautiful ornament that I had admired so much, but certainly not coveted, had brought me more annoyance than pleasure. It procured me one more little trial that very evening. When I got upstairs, I sat down and looked at the ornament. It certainly was very splendid, and I thought, that, if this were paste, and worth only fifteen shillings, it was great waste of money to buy real diamonds, which cost

looked no better. And, as I was# holding it up to the light, and feeling at last a shrill of pleasure in its possession, I heard a voice behind me say— "So that's the twopenny-halfpenny trinket, is it?"
Of course it was Sarah. She had come up to bring me some water, and I had plenty in the jug I shut up the case, and said coldlj
Of course Mr. Rayner would not give any one a thing which really cost only twopence-half-penny, Sarah."
No, miss, not for flpch services as yours." And she said it in such a nasty tone that, when she had left the room, I threw the case down upon the table and burst into tears. ill
CHAPTER

Icottld not understand why Sarah had taken such a strong dislike to me. She was not amiable in her treatment of anybody, but was especially malignant in her hatred towards myself. I concluded to pay as little attention as possible to her. She had never beforo been so rude and harsh as she was on this night. "PerhapsI am getting spoiled by the kindness I receive from so many people," I thought to myself, "and it is well there should be a check upon my vanity. I suppose I ought to be thankful for Sarah."
Whea I had Objected to wearing the dazzling heart with which I had been presented, because it was too brilliant for a governess, Mr. Rayner had suggested I should wear it ,under «ny dress. I was grateful for his kindness, and would have been glad to oblige him, but there were two reasons which prevented me. The first was that it looked as if I were ashamed of it, and the discovery by Mrs. Rayner, or Sarah, for instance, that I was wearing it concealed, would have made me feel guilty and uncomfortable. The other reason was that I already wore neck a little' case made out of the back of an old purse, and it contained the bit of paper with Mr. Reade's apology which lhad pulled off the rose. So I decided to lock up the sparkling pendant in my desfc.
Mr. Rayner had given me tho pendant on Saturday. The next day, when service was over, and we were standabout in the churchyard as usual,

Tuesday was the day on which he bought the marbles. 1 said gravely: "It is just five days." "Yes, but they have been such long days," said he, in a low voice. "Not really," I answered. "The days are getting shorter and shorter now." "Don't you know how long a day seems when you want to see a—a person, and you can't? But perhaps you see the person you like best to see every dayP" l? "I like to see my mother best, and she is a long way on," said I gravely. "Ah, yes, of course! But I wasn't thinking of one's family." "Perhaps you were thinking of (he

the studio." •Oh, no—oh, no—I can't indeed!" said I earnestly. "Don't be angry with me, Mr. Rayner but tho vety thought of possessing any thing so valuable would be a harden to mo night and day."
Mr. Rayner burst into a long laugh. "Oh, you simple little creature! I did not think a London lady would be so unsophisticated as to mistake very ordinary paste for diamonds," said he, with much enjoyment. "This pendant, the enormous value of which much, is worth about dear child, you need be alarmed at the mere money-value of the thing, which is very littlew It has a value in my eyes, but for a different reason.

In the pause which followed his words I distinctly heard Mr. Rayner's bright voice saying archly: "Laurence seems to have
miration for our pretty little Miss Christie: doesn't he, Mrs. Reade?" did not hear her answer, but it was given in a displeased tone and a minute afterward she called her son sharply and said they are waiting for him.
This was to be a busy week in the parish. The school-treat, was fixed to take place on Saturday and the
loi-
lowing day was to be the harvest festival. The Misses Reade had undertaken most of the decoration of the chtunch, as the vicar's wife had enough to do in preparation for the school-feast and accompanying sale.
The next day Haidee and I took a longer walk than ussal and, when we returned, Jane met me with a mysterious air in the haH "Oh, Mb* Christie, young Mr. Reade Milled

that hateful Sarah, and hurt and sorry besides, for I was longing to know what the note said. As soon as I got into the dining-room, however, Mr.
Rayner
came up to me smUling, and
put it into my hands. "Here is a billet-doux which has been left for you, Miss Christie. Now whom do you expect one from?" "From nobody, Mr. Rayner," said I, blushing very much, 1

I thiriik I was a little disappointed in the note but it was all the better, as 1 could, repeat in quite a careless way what it said and then, just as I was wondering whether I should tear it up to show that I did not care, I saw that there was something written on the inside leaf, and I put it back into the envelope as if I did not notice what I was doing, and slipped it into my pocket
Dinner was long that day when it was over I went into school-room and drew out my letter again. The words on the inside leaf were:
Why were you so unkind on Sunday P" I had no way
of
sending back an
answer I could only wait tul next day at a quarter past two. But I think I could have sung through the lessons like the heroine of an opera that afternoon.
I had not thought it necessary to mention to Mr. Rayner the time at which Mr. Reade had said he should bring the work at a quarter past two we were always in the drawing-room ail together. But the next day, tho day of all others when it was important that I should stay-and hear the explanations about the work I had to do, Mrs. Rayner asked me, directly after dinner, if I would mind writing some letters foriier, to go by that afternoon's post I should havo sat down to write them in the drawingroom, but Mrs. Rayner said:
You would like to be undisturbed, I know. Shall I send your coffee to your room or the school-room?"
I said to my room, if you please," and went up stairs trying to swallow the lump in my throat.
I had got through one stupid letter— they were not at all important—when there was a knock at the door, and Jane came in, giggling and excited. "Oh, miss, Tve brought you a parcel, and I have made Sarah so wild!"— and she laughed delightedly. "I answered the

And she slapped the parcel down upon the table triumphantly. "Thank you, Jane," I said quietly. "It is only some work for the church from Miss Reade."
Jane's face fell a little and then, as if struck by a fresh thought, she giggled again. I cut the string and opened the parcel to prove the truth of my words, and showed her the red flannel and the wheat-ears, which were to be sown on in letters to form a text But in the middle was another note, and a box wrapped up in paper, both directed to "Miss Christieand at sight of these little Jane's delight grew irrepressible again. "1 knew it!" she began but stopped herself and said: "I beg your pardon, miss," and left the room very demurely.
But I heard another burst of merriment as she ran down stairs. Then I opened the note it only said:

I did not move or speak, and he jumped up, walked to the shutters ana unbarred them and threw open the windows. "I am suffocating. Oh. for a Venetian balcony!" said he. "Come hercv little woman."

He seemed to drink in my words as if they contained an elixir I could feal by his hand that he was actually trembling and I grew more assured myself. "Now, if you were to take her away, although you might have a difficulty at first in persuading her to go, and force her, with the kind force you know how to use, to go among fresh faces and fresh people, 1 believe she would come back to life again, and see how much better you are than other husbands, and love you just as much as ever. Oh, she couldn't help it you are so kind and good!"
Then my heart sunk, for I saw I had gone too far. As I spoke, from passionately eager, he looked surprised, puzzled, and then his face clouded over with a cold frown that chilled me with fear and shame. I drew my hand out of his quiokly, and stepped back into the room. hand again "Nevermind, little one you have not offended me by speaking your mind out don't be afraid. But you don't know, you can not guess—how many or how deep a man's cares may be while he is obliged to bear a brave front to the world. I think you would be sorry for me if you know them." "I am sorry even without knowing them," I said, softly.

I said, rhournfully, and I turned slowly to the piano to put away tho music. "Never mind I will do that," said he, in his usual tone. "I have kept you long enough Good-night, Undine."
Iwas almost afraid he would agtiin want to kiss me, and, after offenaing him once, I should not have dared to refuse. So I shook hands as hastily as 1 could, took my candle and ran upstairs. I was very angry with myself for having been cold and unsympathetic—I had not meant to be so at all.
