singular smile passed over her face as she gave it to her companion. Sedley looked at it and placed it in Ilia pocket. "I shall call there as soon as I can call as Mr. Fancourt,"he said. "If I had known at the time that a ring was missing, I should not have owned to Pierre's visit," observed Mrs. Lemont. "No, I suppose that you are not quite such a fool as that," returned her companion roughly. "And now are you ready to leave here?" "les, lam sure I have no wish to stay—I'm sick of the place," the lady answered. "And yet you've had your fling, I think, with your infernal extravagance. I hope you have no debts, or it will be the worse for you," said Sedley, in the same harsh tone. "No, I have no debts," Mrs. Lemont replied, with compressed lips and heightened color, as if striving to control her rising anger. "That is well so far," Sedley remarked. 'Tray who is the last victim?" he asked, with a sneer, as he took up and laid down several little articles of bijouterie on the table. "I might ask the same question of ou, replied Mrs. Lemont, her eyes ashing. "But what is the use of recriminations? I have promised to do what you require of me—that is sufficient." "lias any one been here to-day?" .Sedley asked, with an air of suspicion.

I told Perkins to admit no one but ou," said Mrs. Lemont. "What an diot that Perkins is! Only I think he's itolerablv trustworthy, as things go. Ah me, is there one honest person in this heartless world, I wonder:"'

Sedley's lips curled. "I suppose people are honest or not, Just as it best serves their turn," he said. "That is your maxim, I know, my friend," Mrs. Lemont remarked, with a scornful laugh, "and therefore you cannot be surprised if I do not altogether trust you. IIovv long is my banishment to last?" "IIow can I tell?" he demanded. "Let me get into my saddle first."

Julie Leuifmt fixed her bright black eyes upon him, as though she would look him through. He winced under her gaze. "You would trick me if you conld, but have care," she said. "Remember, I have you in my power."

Sedley turned a shade paler. "If any revelations as to the past •would affect me, they would equally affect you, ma belle," he said, in a voice not unite steady. "But what's the use of talking in that way, Julie?" he continued. "Only let me be secure—let me get on the Dlind side of the old man —and then you will see. What has put it into your'head that I want to deceive you?" "Don't I know you?" cried Julie, with her eyes still fixed upon his face.

Again Sedley winced. "You are not talking like a reasona•ble woman, he observed. "You

rofessed see as as I did how it i» that I should not damage my prospects, that I should get to stand well with the Earl, and that I shouldn't just at first bring forward old •connections. All this you agreed to.— You also agreed to go to any place I might take for you, for three months -perhaps, passing there as the widow of .a relative. You can't deny this?" "I don't wish to deny it," Julie returned. "I am qmte ready to fulfil my part of the bargain. Lord Alphington is old and infirm, you say, ana cannot live long—you will soon be your own .master. I can wail it would not be •for my interest that /on should damage your prospects. 15?m no ci-ild to seize a baublo bei'ore I am assured of its worth. On'y, remember, if you are

Earl, I will be Countess of Alphington, or 1 shall know how to take my own measures. Don't vou think I could carry a coronet well?" She lifted her iheau as she spoke, as if she already fid' the weight of it on her brow. "I think vou have talent enough to

down in Surrey only keep quiet there for a while, and all will come right. By Jove," he went on, as if anxious to change the conversation, "Alphington Park is a splendid place—I had no idea how splendid till I went down on Sunday just to have a look at it."

Julie nodded. "I know." she said, "I too have been to have a look at it." "You!" Sedley exclaimed, in surprise. "Yes, I have ways of hearing and •knowing more than you think perhaps," returnea Julie, with what might be called a malicious smile, us she observed her companion's look or annoyance. "I went down there one day, and, hearing in the neighborhood that a housekeeper was wanted at the Hall. I offered myself for the post so you see I had a glimpse of the interior is well as exterior—and it is a splendid place, as you .sav."

Sedley muttered an or.th. "Oh, you needn't be under any Alarm!" Vajd Mrs. Lemont. "No one •could possibly have recognized Julie Iiemont in the grav-haired, elderly woman in a not too fa.Vuonable dress of sober brown and a close bonnet. Of course nothing came of it—I didn't intend there sh^H."

Sedley brought u's hand down on the •table with an oath. "This is sheer foolery," he said. "You'll be playing these infernal tricks once too often." "And if any harm should come to me, you'd be sorry, wouldn't you?" interrogated Julie, derisively.

Sedley scowled and bit his lip. He was beginning to be half afraid of this •woman. He had believed he could turn !her round his finder, as he expressed it, by her love for him, but the unpleasant doubt began to intrude as to whether •her love miirlit last.throucrh so manv

trials, lie had no more raitn in con* stancy than he had in honesty, and he was perfectly well aware that, if Julie Lemont was passionate in her love, she couM be fierce in hate and revenge.

He began to urge her to prepare for departure, and she, nothing loth to leave a place of which she had become utterly weary, proceeded to busy herself in collecting together the few articles that remained yet to be packed.

She was satisfied with the situation that Sedley had chosen for her, she had stipulated not to be' too far from London. She did not intend to lose sight of him, but rather to keep a watchful eye upon his movements.

He, as he sat with his elbow on the table, and his head on his hand, as she moved to and fro, began to have a notion that it might become necessary to get rid of this woman—if not by fair means, then by foul. He was going to begin a new career, and those who knew too much of his antecedents would be better out of the way. There was the constant drain upon him for money, too. He anathematized his fate that had imposed such an incumbrance upon him but the mode of freeing himself from it loomed only vaguely in the distance. He determined upon nothing it would all depend upon Julie. For the present, at any rate, she would be safe—bound by her promise—and in the future some lucky chance might turn up, and do for him what he had no wish to do for himself.

Thus his meditations ran, while Perkins, summoned by his mistress, set a tray with some sandwiches and wine on the table, and then, by Sedley's orders, went for two cabs to convey themselves, the servants and luggage to the rail-way-station.

CHAPTER X.

Mrs. Dalton sat in the pretty draw-ing-room of Ivy Cottage on Fridav evening, impatiently awaiting her daughters' return from their visit to the Larches. It had beep a genial day, redolent of spring, and the garden was full of opening buds and blossoms. Bertha's flower-baskets in the drawingroom looked as if they required their owner's attention, however, no one having thought of them during her absence. Mrs. Dalton had been feeling more and more dull she found herself helpless too without Bertha, and had settled it comfortably in her own mind that another time, when Lena went on a visit. Bertha should remain at home with her.

The shadows of the fruit-trees were lengthening across the lawn, the clouds drifting over the sky took a tinge of crimson, and as yet there was no sign of the travelers. Mrs. Dalton looked at her watch for the twentieth time, and then she rang the bell. "Sarah, what time is it by the kitchen clock?" she asked. "I am sure my watch is slow. Do you think any accident can have happened?" "La, mum, no," replied Sarah. "It wants a quarter of an liour of the time for the young ladies to come yet." "Dear me, does it?" Mrs. Dalton questioned. "You are sure Martha went in good time to meet them at the station?" "She's been gone this half-hour, 'um," answered Sarah. "Very well. Keep the kettle boiling I dare say they will like coffee when they come in."

Another short time of waiting, and then the vociferous delight of Pinch, the house-dog, announced the arrival of the travelers at the door. With great demonstrations of joy Mrs. Dalton ran out to receive her daughters. She scarcely allowed the girls time to put off their traveling wraps before she assailed them with innumerable questions. How had they enjoyed themselves? Whom had they seen? What had they done? What was Sir Stephen's new place like? What sort of neighbors had he? Had they met Lord Alphington? And so on. "Is this all you have to tell me?" she inquired in a significant tone of Lena, when the girls had done their best to answer her interrogatories. "Yes, mamma, all," Lena replied with a slight flush, as she sunk down in a low chair with her back to the window.

Mrs. Dalton looked disappointed. "I think Lady Langley might have thought of asking- some one whom it would have been worth your while to meet," she said in an injured tone. "Oh, mamma, Lady Langley was kindness itself!'' Bertha exclaimed. "It was all very well for you, Bertha," said Lena. "Sir Stephen and Lady Langley always made a pet of you—and now Lord Alphington seems inclined to do the same." "Lord Alphington! You made his acquaintance then?" interrogated Mrs. Dalton. "Bertha did," Lena replied. "He had neither eyes nor ears for me." "Whatever notice he took of me was owing to the ring," Bertha explained. "He only gave me this because he supposed he was goiiig to take the other from me." As she spoke, she held up her finger to show her mother the pearl ring. "It is pretty enough," said Mrs. Dalton, "but he might have given you something of more value, I think." "Oh, mamma, I shouldn't at all have liked it, if he had offered me something of equivalent value I thought it showed so much delicacy on his part to give me this merely as a token," observed Bertha. "You see Bertha will never make her fortune," said Lena, laughing a little scornfully. "There is one piece of news I must tell you, mamma," she continued, as Mrs. Dalton poured out the coffee that had just been brought in "On the very day that we lunched at Alphington Park, Lord Alphington received a letter from his solicitor to say that the young man who claimed to be his grandson—Mr. Fancourt's son, you know—had brought forward his proofs, and that they were all in order. He is the undoubted heir. Sir Stephen and Lady Langley have invited us all to visit them in the autumn, so we shall be sure to meet this Mr. Fancourt."

Mrs. Dalton nodded her head with a smile of satisfaction, though her countenance clouded over as she said "I only hope he may have no entan glements there's no saying whether he may not be already a married man." "I dont think it at all likely," Lena returned. "He has been traveling about for some years, and there was no mention made of a wife." "I am sure I hope he is not married," said Mrs. Dalton—"it would be too provoking to lose such a chance. He's scarcely likely to go into society much this season, I should imagine—there must be a great deal to settle, law busi-i

JJertha took no part in this conversationi she was amusing herself by makUigPinch beg for biscuit. She made no mention of Sir Stephen Langley's proposal to adopt her—she had not spoken of it to Lena. Deeply grateful as she felt for the affection that prompted the wish, she knew that she would not be justified in acceding to it, so she had put it away from her once for all. She also knew that the bare mention of such a proposition would bring down upon her head a storm of anger. If Sir Stephen chose to re-open the subject in the autumn, he could do so in the meantime she would keep silence.

In the course of the evening Bertha heard the full particulars of the loss of the ring, and told her mother that Lord Alphington had determined to set the police to work to find it. "Then they'll have to take the house down," said Mrs. Dalton "for it's my belief that it has rolled away into some crevice. Only don't let anybody blame me. If you had put it in a ring-case that fitted it better, it couldn't have fallen out, you know, Bertha."

Bertha made no reply. It was not worth while. She was herself afraid the ring was long past recovery.

The coffee-tray was removed, the lamp brought in, and the girls settled themselves to their home employments, finding no lack of conversation for the remainder of the evening.

Saturday was still a holiday for Bertha. Her'lessons were not to begin till Monday. The early dinner finished, she joined her mother and sister in the drawing-room. This was not only the largest, but the pleasantest room in the house, the bay-window commanding the garden and the path up to the house from the gate. Here the inmates of Ivy Cottage always sat as soon as the weather in the day-time was warm enough to do away with the necessity of having a fire.

Lena generally cljose the low chair with its back to the window—she was afraid of too much light causing freckles. Bertha, with a book, sat at the side facing the path Mrs. Dalton was near her work table, as usual.

A sharp ring at the visitor's bell was heard. Lena turned round in some curiosity to see who might be coming. An exclamation of surprise escaped her as a young man made his appearance, walking slowly up the path, while Sarah hurried on in advance, a card in her hand. Lena touched her sister's arm. "Bertha, do look!" she said.

Bertha bent cautiously forward, fearful of being seen, and then her eyes met Lena's. They had both recognized their visitor. At the same time Sarah came in, and, crossing ttie room to where Lena was sitting, gave her the card.

A gentleman to see you, miss," she said. Lena took the card on it were a crest she had latelv become familiar with and the name "Mr. Fancourt." "What an extraordinary thing," she exclaimed, passing the card co her mother. "To see me, did you say, Sarah?" "Yes. mi.ss he asked for Miss Dalton, and said it was a little matter of business he wished to see you upon." "I know!" cried Bertha. "It's about the ring—I'm sure of it." "You had better show him in Sarah," said Mrs. Dalton, excitedly.

Discomposed by the mention of the ring, and yet gratified by a call from Mr. Fancourt, in whom she saw the prospective Earl of Alphington, she rose a3 Sedley, who had already assumed the name of Fancourt, entered, and returned his salutation with a gracious smile. "You wished to see my daughter, I understand," she said "these are my daughters—Miss Dalton, Miss Bertha Dalton. Pray be seated."

It was now Fancourt's turn to be surprised, for, as Lena rose, and the light fell upon her face, he at once recognized the beautiful girl he had startled by his oKrnrvf onru^ironna in Aln^mirfAn Pnflr abrupt appearance in Alphington Park. Hen face, though so casually seen, had remained in his memory ever since. The second meeting he put down as another instance of his good fortune.

A considerable alteration had been made both in his attire and demeanor since that day. but whether for the better was doubtful. His clothes were of the best, and his hair and whiskers had been under the hands of a skillful liair-dresser, who had managed to tone down their redness. But the bright necktie, the coral studs, the flower in his button-hole, the trinkets dangling from his watch-chain, and his lemoncolored gloves were all out of taste and out of harmony while the mingled awkwardness and swagger of his manner in his endeavor to appear at ease in his new position were equally objeotionable.

He cast a glance of bold admiration at Lena, as he took the proffered seat, which made Bertha's cheeks burn. Lena, however, showed no consciousness she sunk back into her chair, only turning it a little more toward the light. Lena's was no stately, inaccessible beauty. She had a way of sitting with her head slightly drooped and her arms folded carelessly, forming a picture of gentleness and sensibility ner very calmness and indifference had something alluring in it. "I took the liberty of calling to inquire about a ring that was lost in a very singular way," he began. "I have been told that it was found by Miss Dalton."

He addressed himself to Lena, bending forward as he spoke. "It was my sister who found a ring in a singular manner," said Lena. "Oh, I beg your pardon! Yes, I believe 'Miss B. Dalton' was on the card," he acknowledged. "Would you have any objection to describe to me the person on whose finger you saw it?" he continued, turning to Bertha. "No objection, whatever," Bertha replied.

She then repeated the description she had already given so frequently of her opposite neighbor in the omnibus.

exactly so," said Mr. Fancourt,

as she concluded—1"it is as I supposed. I know the man. He was once a—sort of a—servant of mine," lie added, stammering. "He stole the ring." "That is just what Lord Alphington thought," announced Bertha. "He was sure it was stolen." "You are acquainted with Lord Alphington then?" Fancourt exclaimed, in some surprise. "My daughters had the pleasure of making his acquaintance while on a visit to a neighbor of his—Sir Stephen Langley," quietly interposed Mrs. Dal-, ton.

am happy to congratulate you, Mr. Fancourt," Mrs. Dalton continued "Lord Alphington told my daughters that his grandson and heir had made himself known." "I have not yet seen Lord Alphington," Fancourt said: Mbut I hearu from him." "I understand that Lord Alphington intended coming to town to-day," put in Lena, joining in the conversation. "It was his intention but this morning I received a telegram putting off our meeting till Monday," explained Fancourt, drawing nearer to Lena as he spoke, and gazmg at her with eyes all aglow. "His lordship found himself threatened with a tinge of the gout yesterday," be added.

Lena did not meet his glance she turned her head slightly, so that hei exquisite profile presented itself to his view. "I am sorry to deprive you of the ring, Miss Dalton," he said, again addressing Bertha, feeling that he had no excuse for prolonging his visit "but I fear I must put in a claim to it. Oi perhaps you would prefer to place it in the solicitor, Mr. Thompson hands? It is all the same thing." "I should have been happy to do so," Bertha replied, "had it oeen in my power but I am very sorry to say that the ring was lost while my sister and I were in the country—stolen again, it seems." "I don't see why you should say it was stolen," said Mrs. Dalton. "That's just the way you run off with an idea. It is perfectly monstrous the way in which you stick to it that the very ladylike person who called here on Wednesday took the ring."

An oath trembled on Fancourt's lips as he heard the ring was lost again, but he restrained himself in time. The effort it cost him to trim his customarylanguage, so as to suit his speech to his hearers, gave a rather unnatural and stilted effect to his manner, which was not unnoticed by his companions. "A lady called here last Wednesday,' he exclaimed, with a sudden flush. "Was she a tall woman, with black eyes and a dark complexion?" he asked, unguardedly. "Yes, tall certainly, and with rather a sallow complexion she was In widow's weeds, had gray hair and wore blue spectacles, so that I could not see her eyes. She was quite a lady in her manners," said Mrs. Dalton. "The deuce!" muttered Fancourt under his breath and then, in some confusion, he ran his fingers through his hair.

Bertha observed him narrowly. "Did you think you recognized the person?" she asked.

Fancourt started and again flushed. "I?" he interrogated. "Oh dear no! I merely guessed at random." "My uear, how can you talk such nonsense?" said Mrs. Dalton to Bertha, in a tone of rebuke. "How could you suppose Mr. Fancourt could have recognized th# person before I had told him what she was like?" "And so the ring is lost again! IIow veiy annoying!" observed Fancourt, looking at the finger-tips of his gloves as if he were going to bite them. "Lord Alphington has given notice to the police he is going to employ a detective to follow the matter up, said Bertha, fixing her eyes upon Fancourt's countenance, and yet scarcely knowing why she did so.

She perceived that he winced the hand that held the hat shook. He rose from his chair. "Well, it is a deucedly vexatious affair for all parties concerned," he remarked: "but I for one have the less to regret it it has been the means of introducing me to Mrs. Dalton," he added, with a bow to the elder lady, and another glance toward Lena, who had also risen. "May I hope that as the grandson of Lord Alphington you will allow me to repeat my visit?" "We shall be most happy to see you at any time," Mrs. Dalton replied graciously. "Bertha, my dear, just ring the bell."

1

Bertha had drawn back as soon aa she had given the information required.

With reiterated thanks Mr. Fancourt took his departure, Sarah proceeding to open the gate. "How very odd!" Lena exclaimed, as soon as Mr. Fancourt's back was turned. "How little we thought who it was we met in the Park last Sunday! I knew him at once didn't you, Bertha?" "Yes," answered Bertha, dryly "you took him for a poacher, you know." "He was so shabbily dressed then, and started up so suddenly before one, one didn't know what to think," Lena observed. "It's a most fortunate circumstance, his coming to inquire about that ring," said Mrs. Dalton—"really quite providential, one may say. One can see that he already admires Lena excessively." "I don't like him," confessed Bertha. "He's not a gentleman—and 1 can't help fancying there is something wrong about him." "Really, Bertha, you are too trying with your absurd ideas." said Airs. Dalton. "I'm sure he'll be a very goodlooking young man as soon as he gets at ease, and all that. And, if the lawyers say it's all right, and Lord Alphington owns him, what can there be wrong I should like to know?" "Bertha's jealous," interposed Lena, laughing. "Own it now, Bertha! You doirt want me to be Countess of Alphington. You foolish chit, don't you see what a chance there is? I'm not going to lose it, I can tell you." "Oh, Lena, take care!" Bertha cried. "You cannot think that the man who has just left us would be an agreeable person to be associated with, were he twenty times an Earl's son?" "I'm sure I don't know where you have picked up your silly notions, Bertha," said Mrs. Dalton, compl liningly. "It was from your poor father, I suppose—not from me, I'm sure. It would be ungrateful to Providence to throw away such a chance. Thank goodness, Lena has more common sense. As for you, you will be a drudge to the end of your days, unless our precious Lena, when she has gained the position she was born for, does not allow us to want for anything." The picture was affecting, and Mrs. Dalton drew her handkerchief across her eyes. "There's one thing I must beg, Bertha," she went on "and that ist that when Mr. Fancourt is here you will not disgrace us by making any reference to your having to go out to teach." "I believe Bertha is quite capable of that," said Lena, pettishly "she told Sir Stephen Langley all about it, I know."

occasionally made wertna reoemous spirit rise. She controlled herself, however, and merely said: "I do not think it likely 1 shall ever fcave much to say to Mr. Fancourt. I think him perfectly odious."

Any rejolner that might have been made was cut short by the arrival of another visitor. [The remaining chapters of this romance will be found intfw Weekly and Saturday issues of tbe GAZETTE. I
