Having overheard the boys' remarks, I did not apprehend anything very serious, but it was as well to take due interest In what was so evidently greatly agitating the dear things' minds.

It is amusing to note how the getting away from the narrow home groove causes one to see, in a particularly marked manner, how trivial are the incidents which, as a rule, occasion a flutter in the domestic dovecot. The best table-oloth has a hole in it, and "that careless laundress" brings down an avalanche of wrath on her devoted head or those "good-for-nothing Jones boys have presumed to walk over the olean door steps, just as they have been sorubbed or the servant of all work has overstayed her time on her night out, etc., eto. As for the annual visit of the sweep, and the delightful time denominated "spring cleaning," they afford food for disous•Ion for a full month at least before they finally come to pass. I do not wish it to be Imagined that I no longer took an interest In these purely domestic incidents, but they did not now bold the "first plaoe In my mind. "I do not know whethei' you will jthlnk it serious or not," began mother, ^Impressively, in answer to my question. "You must know that I had a note from our Ylcar yesterday, asking permission to call, and bring a friend with him, on a little matter of business." "I see and you have just been sitting in state to reoeive them. What did they want?" "I was agreeably surprised with the friend," continued mother, who was not to be hurried. "He seemed quite a gentlemen, and was most deferential In his manner to me did It not strike you so,

Lesbla?" "Yes, mother he reminded me of some prince In disguise, he was so stately and polite," said Lesbla, primly, but with a touch of romance for which I could scarcely have given her credit. "I thought he appeared Bad, too," said mother "almost as though he had had some great trouble." "Well, and what did this disguised prince want with you? Or was it the Vicar who had business?" I repeated, getting Impatient. ••You don't give me time I am coming to it if you will not interrupt. It appears that the Vloar has been praising my housekeeping to this Mr. Dymooke —very kind of him, I am sure. You Bee, Minnie dear, he had never forgotten that ohloken we gave him when he had supper with us—he declared It was the moat dellolous and best oooked fowl he had ever eaten. My deir mother was always so particular to make good oooks of us. Her maxim used to be: 'If you wish to be thorough housekeepers you must know how to do things yourselves,' and I am aure, many's the time I have thought of her words, and had oause to thank her for the pains she took in teaching us." "Am I never to hear what they wanted?" I repeated, in despair. "Mr. Dymooke wishes to oome and board with us," said Lesbia, hastily, but in an undertone. "Well, Lesbla, you need not have taken the word* out of my mouth," said mother, oatchlng the remark. "I was oomtng to it fast enough, only yon young thing* are so Impatient. Bat that Is how It is, Minnie.

CHAPTER IV. TAKING A IX) DO KB.

When I arrived borne I found all the members of our modest household aa Bern bled In solemn conclave in the back drawing-room. They, the mem bers, con stated of my mother, bearing on her head the cap of state, only worn on festive occasions—my sister Lesbla, looking more prim than ever in her "Sunday" gown of brown cashmere (Lesbla always eschewed bright colors as being extravagant)—and the two bojs,aged respectively sixteen and fourteen, who bad evidently been called in from their pursuits in the garden to aid in the consultation, for their appearance on the whole was the reverse of festive, the mould of the damp flower beds, wherein they bad presumably been digging, still adhering to boots and bands. Indeed, it was a most pregnant sign of preoccupation on Lesbla's part that they were allowed to show their noses indoors at all in that state, let alone the draw-Ing-room. They did not appear to be particularly enjoying the unaccustomed privilege, to be sure, but were only stopping under protest. 1 had walked home from the station, leaving my luggage to be sent on a truck, and, letting myself In with my latchkey, I came upon this scene quite unexpectedly. No sooner did the boys catch sight of my face at the drawing-room door than they sprang hastily up to welcome me, and then, having bestowed a wet but affectionate kins on my travel-stained cheeks, they took a mean advantage of the temporary bustle to escape to their beloved garden, leaving the family conolave to its fate. "Lesbia must have been bard up before she asked us to come and help her and mother to make up their minds," I heard Harry mutterasthey went off. "I don't care a bally button whether the old cove comes or not, so long as he doesn't interfere 1th me." "Nor me," echoed Dick, emphatically, if not exactly In accordance with the principles laid down by Lindley Murray for our guidance. "Oh, Minnie dear, you cannot think how relieved lam to see you," exclaimed mother. "If you had only been a little nearer 1 should certainly have telegraphed for you to come up to-day to help us decide." "Well, you do look solemn, both of you, I must say. What is it all about— nothing serious, I hope?"

ICopyrighted, 1805, by M. F. Baly.] death—"and, having a friend In Mr, Sedley, Mr. Dymocke asked him to recommend a family of gentlefolks who

would be likely to reoeive him, and Mr. Sedley mentioned my name. I would not hear of it at first, and said so, I believe, pretty plainly, intimating that thought it rather strange of the Vicar to imagine for a moment that we should let lodgings. I was so short with them that they rose to go, saying they were sorry they bad intruded." "Then I gave mother a look," put in Lesbla. "After all, why should we not do what hundreds of others, better off and better born than we are, do every day? I am sure we want the money badly enough." "The upshot was," ended mother, that I relented, and have promised to think it over and let Mr. Dymocke know What do you advise, Minnie? We were jUBt saying that he could have the draw ing-room, for we have so few visitors now that we scarcely need it and he would have all his meals with us." "I say, have him by all means, since you ask my opinion. It would be flying iu the face of Providence to refuse, especially if the gentleman seems agreeable." iv| "It certainly would be a great help in the housekeeping," said mother, visibly relieved at having the decision taken out of her hands. "But what will all our friends think?" "As to 'all' our friends, I doubt if the 'all' yet remaining will concern themselves much about us. But we have thrashed out that subjeot before now, and you had to confess yourself hopelessly worsted last time, dear. With regard to the bedroom, he can have mine, and I can sleep with LeBbia when I am at home. For that matter, I have had serious thoughts lately of getting a couple of rooms nearer the oity, so as to be at hand henever I am wanted in a hurry our head manager has hinted at this desirability more than once within the last few months. However"—hastily, seeing the look of trouble pass over the dear mater's face at the thoughts of losing me—"that need not be discussed at present after all, it was only an idea, and may never come to anything. We have managed as we are, so far, so there is no partioular reason why we should not go on hi the same old way. Now let us discuss our boarder. gWben does he want to come?" Itfl "Ah, that's just it if we decide to have him, he wishes to come to-mor-row." "To-morrow! That is short notioe. However, if Lesbia and I set to work, there is no reason why we should not be ready there is no extra furniture, or anything of that sort, to buy.'^^^fpi

So it was settled to write and inform Mr. Dymooke that we graciously consented to pocket our pride and receive him as a boarder into the privacy of our family oircle, for whioh privilege he was to pay at the rate of thirty shillings a week. As for mother, when once the allimportant letter was despatched, she began to brighten and look forward with secret pleasure to the idea of having a man once more in the house, both for the sake of the pleasant change it would be in her somewhat monotonous life, and also for the extra protection it would afford the household at night. She had never been able quite to reconoile herself to sleeping in a houseful of women, and although the boys were growing up now, and would be available in oaseof need, they were always ohlldren to her, and not like "a real, grown-up man such a protection in a house, you know, dears."

The next evening found us once more sitting In state to receive our boarder. We had been BO much occupied in preparing for the unexpected guest, that the remembrance of the oxciting scenes I had so lately passed through had for the time been banished from the foremost place in my memory, and at the odd moments when they recurred to me, I felt more than glad that I had not leisure to dwell closely on them, for I felt convinced that but a very little more strain on my nerves and power of endurance would have resulted in a oomplete breakdown. This distraction, therefore, was doubly welcome to me. What with dragging beds about, hastily washing and starohing the best bedcurtalns, getting in extra provisions, and cooking a dainty dish or two for tea, mingled with some hearty laughs at the boys' rough jokes, and racy, If not very refined remarks, I really had very few moments for private thought, and those hearty laughs did me more good than brooding would have done.

I took a last look round at the'oozy tea-table, with Its glass and silver shining like new, and the flowers from our modest garden adding their brightness to the general effeot. The boys, for a wonder, had appeared with olean hands and smooth though damp hair, of their own aooord, and were on the tip-toe of expectation and curiosity as to what sort of a "fellow" our boarder wonld turn out to be.

Mother had again donned the oap of state, which I laughingly told her would soon have to be relegated to the subordinate position of "second best," if she kept on wearing it in this reckless manner. had persuaded Lesbia to put some lace round the neck of her brown cashmere, and a bnnoh of scarlet flowers in front, as a little relief to the sombreneas of her attire. She obeyed under protest, deeming the additions frivolous. Lesbla's governess experiences had made her very prim, poor little thing. I always did my beet when at home to laugh her out of It, but the habit had grown almost into second nature. As for me, I had on a plain black drew, brightened up, like Lesbla's, with flower* and laoe, although must be pardoned the litUe vanity of mentioning—being my own obnmlcler I am forced to it, if it is to be mentioned at all—that the make of my drees was decidedly superior to hen, and fitted my

attracted him"—we had moved away {tall, slim figure like a glove. Not but from the ^ngy Bast Bad slnoe father's what Leebia oould have afforded to have

hers better made, had she so chosen, for she earned a fairly good salary, but she oould never see the use of spending a farthing more on dress than was absolutely neoessary In order to be respectably clothed.

As I gazed round on the happy family circle I made up my mind that would keep the events of those days in Wayborough from their knowledge, if possible. I could perceive by the absence of all questioning that they were quite Ignorant of the matter—no newspapers were taken in our house—and there was no object In enlightening them except in case of necessity. Truth to tell, I shrank from speaking of It, now that it was over. The very fact of the mystery of it all—the weirdness of the vision the air of improbability it wore to outsiders—the sneer of scepticism with which they would talk of it—made me shy of re-opening the subject. I did not mind mother knowing, and, had It not been that I would not alarm her unneooessarlly, I should have told her, secure of her sympathy. But it wa,s Lesbla's, too, too literalness—her matter-of faot way of trying to measure everything by her own narrow and limited lights, that I dreaded she would go into the whole thing so ad nauseum, trying to find a fitting reason for this or that, that would have driven me downright silly—she would have ridden the subject to death, while all the time professing to utterly disbelieve It, as a thing too ridioulously Improbable. Then I dreaded the boys' chaff—boys have such away of discovering the most tender point in your feelings, and then jumping upon It, and I hated the idea of that more than anything, in the present overstrained state of my nerves. No, it would be decidedly, more prudent to keep the events of the last week strictly to myself, so long as it was at all possible to do so.

Just as I got to this point in my musings, the door bell gave a modest tingle, and all heads were cautiously advanced to the window in hopes of catching a glimpse of the new arrival. (If it had been that gentleman, there would have been a great probability of his catohing us at the window.) But it was the baker's boy, bringing an extra loaf. We sat down again, disappointed, and were beginning to discuss the expediency of commencing our meal—needless to say, minus the dainty dishes, whioh were to be kept hot for visitor—when a double knock came to the door. There was no possibility of doubt this time—tradesmen's boys do not give double knookB. Mother was instantly in a flutter. "Shall I go outside to greet him?" she asked, nervously "or would it look too like a landlady receiving her lodger?","Treat him exactly as a lady wouldtreat her guest," I said "if he is not gentleman enough to appreciate your oonduot we shall And it out, and we oan get rid of him when we like. Thank goodness, we are not so poverty stricken as to be obliged to stand any one's airs and graces."

Lesbia nodded acquiescence with my opinion, and mother went out accordingly into the narrow hall, whence we heard a deqp voice mingling with the shrill treble of our little maid of all work. "Those bass tones have a pleasant ring, at any rate," I remarked.

We had not time to say much, however, before the door opened again to readmit mother, and with her the expected stranger.

We saw a man of about 30 year% of age, broad-shouldered and tall, so tall as almost to touch the top of th& doorway. Crisp waves of dark brown hair crowned ahead of noble proportions, the lower part of whioh possessed a clean out and firm ohin, and a mouth of singular sweetness, when it smiled. What struok us all at a first glance, however, was the look of deep sadness in the blue eyes, and the drooping corners of the mouth when at rest. 'These are my children," said mother, In the proud and happy tone she always adopted when speaking of her "chicks" —her duoklings rather, which were to her as swans. "Lesbia you know already. This is my eldest daughter, Minnie, and that Is Harry, and this curly-headed monkey is Dick, the pickle of the family."

Mr. Dymocke included us all in a sweeping bow, which, beginning with Lesbia, as she stood at one side of the flower-filled fireplace, ended with me. I commenced at once the line of conduot I intended to pursue with our new boarder. "I hope we shall be good friends," I said, holding out my hand with a smile, and he took it with a pleased yet doubtful look, whiob slightly puzzled me. "Thank you," he said in his pleasant bass. "I hope we shall."

Then we seated ourselves to the longdelayed tea, the boarder, at mother's request, taking the plaoe of honour opposite to her "it looked so much inoro natural for a man to be at the foot of the table," she said. Soon the conversation became general, Mr. Dymocke exerting himself, I oould see, to make himself agreeable—more espeolally to the boys, whose hearts be soon won by expressing a profound and lively insight and interest in the mysteries of Cricket. But ever and anon, when he thought himself unobserved, I caught his eyes furtively fixed on me, almost, I oould fancy, with a look of surprise. Long afterwards I learnt the meaning of these curious glanoes, though at the time, I remember, they rather piqued and puzzled me. "We have given up the drawing-room for your own use," said mother, presently. "I hope you will find It comfortable." "I am sorry yon should do that," waa Mr. Dymooke's reply. "It was very kind of you to take me tn at all, and I had not the least wish or intention to put you to any inoonyenienoe. If I might make so bold on such a short acquaintance I would beg that you should traat me exactly aa a son of the family and make me quite one of yourselves. I shall be away at my office in the city very little, and I should enjoy the pleasant companionship so muon, if you would allow me to join your family circle. You could send me away without oeremony If you wished at any time to be alone, you know.** "Well, we will see," aaid mother, doubtfully, but plsassd, I oould see with the proposal—it had been a wreooh to

give up her drawing room. "It is early days to make any definite arrangements you might not like us on further acquaintance, and then you would want to •it alone."

Eventually it was decided that Mr, Dymooke was to »hare the boys' downstairs play-room with them—share It, that is to say, on the understanding that when the boarder espeolally wished to be alone, the boys were to keep out of It— an arrangement which seemed to Bult all parties.

After tea Mr. Dymocke declined to retire for a smoke, either to the room specially prepared for him or to the boys play-room—he deolared that the doctor bad told him that the less ho smoked the better, and that he would content himself with a whiff just before going to bed. Thereupon he begged for music, and Lesbia seated herself at the piano, on which she was no mean performer. He listened most attentively to sonata and fugue, and critloised In a manner whioh showed that he understood what be was talking about. When Lesbia had finished he turned to me, asking if would not contribute my share to tbe evening's entertainment but I shook my head doubtfully. "I have not Lesbla's talent," I said. "At the most, I only used to sing a few ballad*, which I have forgotten for want of praon-*."

But Dymocke would take no denial, offering-1/ play my accompaniments if 1 would Ring some of the old songs mother joined her entreaties to his^ so 1 bad to givo way at last, comforting myself with the knowledge that, if my voice was not a powerful one, it was at least sweet, and that the songs I sang I sang well. ,•-

Mr. Dymooke came forward to help me rummage out the songs from their place in the big music chest, and while we were both on our knees before it, he holding up the heavy bound volumes while I searched underneath them, be said to me in an undertone, unheard by the rest. "I trust you are not any the worse for your recent experiences?" 1 looked up startled. "Wh—what do you mean? What do you know of any experience of mine?"

He smiled slightly and apologetioally. "Only what the daily papers have told me. I beg pardon if I have committed any indiscretion." "Hush," I whispered. "Don't say anything to my family they seldom see the daily papers, and I do not want to alarm my mother by telling her—just yet, at least." "I am glad I did not happen to njen tion the matter before them," he answered. "I took it for granted they would know."

Then he seated himself at the instrument, an old Scotch song, whioh 1 had expressed my ability to sing, in his hand. lie praised my performance, and asked for another song, and yet another. At last, when I had fairly sang myself hoarse, he broke out into one of Chopin's valses, and betrayed at once by his masterly touch the thorough musician. I sat entranced, in a delicious reverie, as he played one pieoe after another, but idly watching the while a kind of leather band or strap just above tbe wrist, whioh kept peoping out of his coat sleeve as his arm moved up and down tbe keys. 'I suppose he has hurt or sprained himself iu some way," I thought once. •I wonder he can play at all."

Then I forgot all about it, and lost myself again in the delight of listening to the music, until recalled back to earth by its cessation. "It strikes me that our boarder will turn out a distinct acquisition," said mother that night when we got to our rooms. "Confess, now, that you are glad I would not let you send him away," said Lesbia. "Minnie, did you notice how sad be looks when he is not speaking?" "Yes, but how his face alters when he smiles," was the reply. "You would scarcely take It for the same he puzzles me rather." "Puzzles you? In what way?" "Ab, that Is more than I oan tell you. for I do not know myself. Now, good night, both of you. I am fairly tired out with my exertions for the boarder's benefit.?' [TO BE CONTINUED.]

The Staff of The Times-Herald. National Hotel Reporter. The Times-Herald, as conducted by Mr. Kohlsaat, is In many respects the greatest newspaper in the United States. Its

new

owner and

publisher is expending money with a liberal hand, and it is probably true that the payroll of The Times-Herald is to-day considerably larger than that of any other American newspaper. Mr. Kohlsaat has, in fact, secured the services of nearly all the great newspaper writers of the day. Cornelius McAullff, the managing editor, 1» a man of pronounced ability. Moses P. Handy, who is in charge of the editorial page, and who contributes, twice a week, some entertaining matter over his own signature, is known from one end of the country to the other as a ready writer and brilliant Journalist. Mrs. Margaret Sullivan, who is regarded as one of the best writers in this country, retains her position on the editorial staff. E. V. Smalley, who has recently returned to America from a lengthy sojourn in London, has been added to the. corps, of writers on Chicago's great newspaper. Frank Li. Stanton, whose poems appeal so strongly to the human heart, has a column of verses twice a week on the editorial page, and they are being widely copied. Hamlin Garland has recently become a contributor to this paper. Lyman B. Glover, so long the accomplished dramatic editor of The Herald, now contributes well written articles on various topics over his own signature. Walter Wellman, the well known Washington correspondent, is retained in tbe same capacity. Elwyn A. Barron, who was for so many years the dramatic critic of the Inter Ocean, Is now attached to The Times-Herald, with a residence In London, and is writing some very scholarly and delightful letters from the metropolis of Great Britain. Charles Lederer, who as a cartoonist has no superior, has recently been sent to Europe by Mr. Kohlsaat, and some illustrated articles from his pen are now appearing. Joseph Howard. Jr., a brilliant and causUo Writer, long connected with the New York press, Is now a regular contributor to The Times-Herald. George Alfred Townsend, the talented "Oath" of the Cincinnati Enquirer and other papers, fa writing for Mr. Kohlsaat, and has recently sent some very delightful letters from eastern summer resorts. Mary Abbott is (he litem-? critic, and alto contributes entertainingly to the editorial page. Kate field, tbe brilliant Journalist and lecturer, has been engaged, and will shortly visit Hawaii under commission from the enterprising proprietor of this great Chicago newspaper. Other men and women of almost equal renown in the newspaper world har* been secured by Mr. Kohlsaat and it is undoubtedly true that no other Journal In this country has upon Its staff so many brilliant, able and highpriced writers.
