The feeling in his tone the display

nobility and dlpnity In hl plan; It
waa worthy of bltn. And I had never

the library and to my surprise Btod-da-d
appeared with bis own hand-bag.
"I'm going to see Donovan well on
his way" said the clergyman. 1
"It's a pity our party must break
up." exelalmod my grandfather. "My
obligations to Mr. Donovan are very
groat and to .'you too Stoddard.

"Donovan!" There was a sharp cry

with his haals outstretched entreat-

'Tor Ood's sake no!" pleaded
Btes. He was deeply moved and
turned his face av.ay from us.
"Hut like me" Larry went on "he

. "Larry you may remember that I
showed a fondness for the stsge In our
uulvcAlty dsys. When I got to Amer-
ica I had little money and found it
necessary to find employment without
delay. I saw Mr. Olenarm's advertise-
ment for a valet. Just as a lark I an-
swered It to see what an Amrrlran
gontlsman seeking a valet looked like.
I' fell In love with Mr. Olenarm at
sight"
"And I wlih you!" deeiared my
grandfather. "I never believed your
story at all yon were too porfect In
the part!"
"Well. I didn't greatly mind the
valet bunlneas; It hclpnd to hldo my
Identity; and I did like tho humor and
whims of Mr. Olenarm. The house-
kepli.g after we came out here
waau't so pleasant" -he looked at his
bands ruefully "but this Joke of Mr.
Olenarm's making a will and then go-
ing to Egypt to see what would hap-
pen that was too good to miss. And
when the bolr arrived I found new op-
portunities of practising amateur the-
atricals; and Pickering's efforts to en-
list me In his scheme for finding the
monoy and making me rich gave .me
still greater opportunities. Thcne
were tlmos when I was strongly tempt-
ed to blurt the whole thing; I got
tired of being suspcted and of play-
ing ghost In the wall; and if Mr. Olen-
arm hadn't got hore ut ns he did I
should have stopped the flttht and pro-
claimed the truth. I hope" he said
turning to me "you have no hard
feelings sir." And he throw Into the
"sir"-Just a touch of Irony that made
us all roar.
"I'm certainly glad I'm not dead"
declared my grandfather staring at
nates. "Life is more fun than I ever
thought possible. Bless my soul!" he
said "it It Isn't a shame tbat Bates
enn never cook another omelette for
me!"
We sent Bates back with my grand-
father front the boat-house and Stod-
dard Larry and I started across the
Ire; the light coating of snow med?
walking comparatively easy. We
strode on shently Stoddard leading.
Their plan was tq take an accommoda-
tion train at the first station beyond
Annandale leave It at a town 40 miles
away and thon hurry east to an oh-
seuro place In the mountains of Mary-
land where a religious order main-
tained a house. There Stoddard prom-
iHod Larry asylum and no questions
asked. ' 1
As my two frlend3 waved farewell
to me from tho rear platform of their
train a mom! of depression seized mef
I had lost much that day and what I
had'galued my restoration to the re-
gard of the kind old man of ray own
blood who bad appealed for myVom-
panlonshl'p In terms hard to deny
seemed trifling as I tiampod back
over the Ice. Perhaps Pickering after
all was the real gainer by the day's
events!
I tramped on back toward the Glen-
nrm shore and leaving the lake halt-
unconsciously struck Into the wood be-
yond the dividing wall. The melted
snow of mid-day was now crisp lco
tbat rattled and broke under my tread.
I csme out Into an open space beyond
St. Agatha's found . the walk ' and
turned toward homo In the gathering
night.
As I ncared the main entrance to
the school the door opened and a worn-
nn came out under the overhanging
lamp. She carried a lantern and
turued with a hand outstretched o
some one who followed her with care-
ful steps
"Ah Marian" cried my grandfather.
"It's ever the task of youth to light
the way for age!"
CHAPTER XXVII.
And So the Light Led Me.
He had been to see Sister Theresa
and Marian was walking with him to
the cate. I saw her quite plainly In
the light that fell from the lamp over-
head. A long cloak covered her. and
a fur toque capped ber graceful head.
My grandfather and hla guide were
apparently In high spirits and their
laughter smote harshly upon me. It
seemed to shut me out to lift a bar-
rier against me. The world lay there
wilUiln the radius ot that swaying
light and I hung aloof hearing her
voice and Jealous of the very com-
panionship and sympathy between
them.
But the light led me. I remembered
with bitterness tbat I had always fol-
lowed her whether as Olivia trail-
ing In her girlish grace across the
snow" or as the girl in gray whom I
had followed on that night journey at
Christmas eve; and I followed now.
The distrust my shattered faith my
utter loneliness could not weigh
against the Joy of hearing that laugh
of hers breaking mellowly on the
night.
I paused to allow the two figures to
widen the distance between us as they
traversed the path that curved away
toward the chapel. I could still hear
their voices and see the lantern flash
and disappear. I felt an Impulse to
turn back or plunge Into the wood-
land; but I was carried on uncontroll-
ably. The light glimmered and her
olee still floated back to me. It stole
through the keen winter dark Hke a
memory of spring; and so her voice
and the light led me.
Thea I heard aa exclamation of dis-
may followed by laughter In which
say grandfather Joined merrily.
"Oh never mind; we're not afraid!"
she exclaimed.
I had rounded the curve In the patl
where I sbonld have seen the llgh
hut the darkness was unbroken. Thai
was silence for a moment in whichjl
mow quire near to tneui.
Thep my grandfather's volco broke
out cheerily.
"Now I must ga hnrl; wi!h you! A
floe person you are to guide un old
man! A foolish virgin Indted with
no oil in her lamp!"
"Please do not! Ot course I'm go-
ing to see you quite to your own door!
I don't Intend to put ray band to the
lantern and then turn back!"
"Tbla wu!k Isn't what It should be"
said my grandfather "we'll have to
make a better one In the spring."
Then they were silent and I heard
him futilely striking a match wben
suddenly the lantern foil Its wires
rattling as It struck the ground end
the two exclaimed with renewed mer-
rlnxvit upon their misfortune.
"If you will allow me!" I rslled out
fumbling In ray pocket for my own
matchbox.
I have sometimes thought that
there Is really some sort of decent
courtesy to me. An old man caught in
a rough path tbat was none too good
at best! And a girl even though my
enemy! But those were not. I fanoy
the reflections that crossed my mind
at ttie moment.
"Ah It's Jack" exclaimed my grand-
father. "Marian was showing me the
th- way to the gate and our light want
out."
"Miss Devereux" I murmured. I
have I hope an Icy tone for persons
who have Incurred my displeasure
and I employed It then and tbere with
no doubt Its fullest value.
She and my grandfather were grop-
ing In the dark for the lost lantern
Wanted
Squire
and I putting out my hand touched
hor nngloved fingers.
"I be? your pardon" she murmured
frostily.
Then I found and grasped the Ian-
tern. "One moment" I said "and 111 see
wbat'B the trouble."
I thought my grandfather took It
but the flaruo of my wax match showed
ber fingers clasping the wire frame.
The cloak slipped away showing ber
arm's soft curve the blue and white
of her bodice the purple blur of vio-
lets; and for a second I saw her face
with a smile qulyerlng about ber Hps.
My grandfather was beating the
ground Impatiently with bis stick urg-
ing us to leave the lantern and go on.
"Let it alone" he said.' "I'll go
down through the chapelj theie's a
lantern in there somewhere."
"I'm awfully sorry" she said "but
I recently lost my best lantern!"
To be sure she had! I wss angry
that she should so brazenly recall the
night I found her looking for Picker-
ing's notes In the passage at the Door
of Bewilderment!
She bad lifted tho lantern now and
I was striving to touch the wax taper
to the wick with imminent danger to
my bare fingers.
VThey don't really light well when
the oil's out" she observed with an
exasperating air of wisdom.
I took it from her hand and shook
It close to my ear.
"Yes: of course it's empty" 1 mut-
tered disdslnfully and threw it from
me.
"Oh Mr. Olenarm!" she cried turn-
ing away toward my grandfather.
I heard his stick beating the rough
path several yards away. He was
hastening toward Glenarm House.
"I think Mr. Olenarm has gone
home." i
"Oh that Is too had!"' she ex-
claimed. -
"Thank you! He's probably at the
chapel by this time.' If you will per-
mit me "
"Not at all!"
A man in the sixties should not
tax his arteries too severely. I was
quite sure that my grandfather raa
up the chapel steps; I could hear his
stick beating hurriedly on the stones.
"If you wish to go: farther" I be-
gan. I was lndlgraot at my grandfather's
conduct; he had deliberately run- off
leaving roe alone with a young woman
whom I had resolved never to see
again. v
"Thank you; I shall go back now. I
was merely walking to the 'gate with
Mr. Glenarm. It Is so fine to have htm
back again so unbelievable!"
It was just such a polite murmur aa
one might employ in speaking to ao
old foe at a friend's Uble.
She listened a moment for his step;
then apparently satisfied turned back
toward St. Agatha's. . I followed un-
certain hesitating marking her defin-
ite onward flight From the folds el
her cloak stole the faint perfume of
violets. The sight of her the sound
of her voice combined to weate and
to destroy! a mood with every step.
I was seeking some colorless thing
to ssy when she spoke over her shoul-
der: "You. are very kind hut I am tot

the least afraid Mr. Oienurm ;
nut more is someimnn wirn to
say to you now tbat we h.ve met. I
should like"
She slackened her step.
"Vo." ; . ..
"I am going away."
"Yes; of course; you are going
awsy."
Her tone ympMed that this was some-
thing that bad been ordained from the
beginning of time and did not mat
ter.
. "And I wish te say a word about
Mr. Pickering" I added.
She paused Sad faced me abruptly
We were at the edge of the wood
and the school lay quite near. She
caught the cloak closer about her and
gave her head a little toss I remem
bered well as a trick compelled by
the vagaries of woman's headdress.
"I csn't talk to you here Mr. Glen--arm;
I had no Intention of ever see-
ing you again; hut I must say this to
you"
"Those notes ef Pickering I shall
ask Mr. Cleaarm to give them to yon I
as a mark of esteem from me."
She stepped backward as thongh I ;
had struck her 1
"You risked much for than and
for hlm-i" I went on.
"Mr. Glenarm I have no Intention
of discussing that or any other mat-
ter with yoi "
"It is better seM . (
"But your accusations the things
you imply are unjust infamous!"
The quaver in her voloe shook my
resolution to deal harshly with her.
"If I had not myself bees a wit-
ness " I began. '
"Yes; you have the conceit of your
own wisdom I dsre say."
"But that challenge to follow you.
to break my pledge; my running away
only to find that Pickering was close
at my heels; your visit to the tunnel
In search of those ttQtes dont you
know that those thlngsvwere a blow
that hurt? .Yon hsd been the spirit
of this woodland to me. Through all
these months from the hour I wtsek-
ed yo paddle off Into the sunset la
your canB. the thought of you made
the days brighter steadied and cheer
ed me and awakened ambitions that I
had forgotten abandoned long ago.
And this hideous struggle here U
seems so Idle so worse than Useless
now! But t'm glad I followed yen.
I'm glad neither fortune ner duty kept
me hack. And sow I want yes to
know that Pickering shall sot suffer
for anything that has happened. I
shaV not punish him; for your sake
he shall go free." v.
A sigh So deep that it was like e sob
broke from her. She thrust forth her
band entreaflngly. 1 v .
"Why don't yon go to him 'with your
generosity? Ton are so ready to be-
lieve ill of me!. And I shall net de-
fend myself; but I wfjl say these
things to you Mr. Olenarm: 1 had no
idea no thought of seeing him at the
Armstrong's it was a surprise to me
and to them when he telegraphed
he was coming. And when I went in-
to the tunnel there under the wall
that night I had a purpoio ft pur-
pose " ' ' '. '
"Yes?" She paused and bent for-
ward earnestly waiting for ier words
knowing that here lay her great of-
fending. 1
"I was afraid I was afraid that
Mr. Glenarm might net corns in time;
that you might be dispossessed lose
the fight and I came back With Mr.
Pickering because that was the
easiest and quickest way-and I
thought some dreadful thing might
happen here to you"
She turned and ran from Tie with
the speed of the wind tbs elokk flut-
tering out darkly about her. At the
door under the light of the limp I
was close upon her. Her hand Vas on
the vestibule latch
"But bow should I have knon?" I
cried "when vou had taunted ml with
my Imprisonment at Olenarrai you
had dared me to follow yon. Tl yon
can tell me If there Is an tnjwsr to
that"
"I shall never tell you anything
more! You were so eager to thinl ill

"it was Because i lore yo; it was

enemy that made me eateh at lay

"Oh please!"
Her flight had shaken the toque
an unwonted angle; her breath ea
quick and hard as she tngped at tl
latch esgerly. The light from ove
head was fall npea no but I coul
net go with heps and belief strsgglln

eyes.
"But yon challenged me to follow

She drw away struggling to free

"Why wss it Marian?" ;
"Because I wanted--"
"Yes?"
"I wanted you -to come Squire aien-

Ancaeuti was king of Samos In the
Grecian archipelago he planted aa ex-
tensive vineyard and oppressed hie
slaves so heavily in its cultivttloa
that ono of the bolder ones prophesied
that he would never live to taste any
of the wine.

beaten. .' Then at last when the wine
was made he sent for the slave to wit-
ness him drink the first glass la order
to show him that lbs prophesy wo
false. When the servant appeared
the king raising the gb-ss of Minor

prophecy now?" "There Is mofly a
slip 'twlxt cup and Up" wss the an-
swer. The words were scarcely ut
tered when Ancaeus was Informed

a wild boar had broken Into the
Ineyard and was ruining It." Drop-

tened to the scene to drive out the
oar but he was killed In the encoun-
r and tho slave's prophecy was ful
led. Tho 8unday Magazine.
