'CHAPTER XII. (Continued.)
I Glanced around to in that there wa
nothing Mr. Lynn could pry Into or tak
n way during my absence, and seeing al
safe, I left him. In my Bitting room
found Dr. Awdrey waiting to see me.
I saw Lynn's horse outside, and 1
dropped In to know It he were here.
should like to see him before ho rocs, if
you don't mind my waiting here."
"Go in and see hltn nt once," wild I
"I have done with hlra."
He thanked me and went into the office
while I slipped Into my dining room
which, as I hare wild, it divided from
the office by a half-glazed door, that in
tercepts sound bo slightly that what takes
place in one room Is audible In the other
If anyone thinks It is wrong to play at

rxm only a lawyer. I have no compunc
tion to listening In a case of this kind.
They had got through their first greet
ing when I reached the door, but as I
paw through the old green taffcty cur
tains, they still held each other by the
hand.
"A mere sprain; that's nil. Painful
enough at first ; just enough to keep me
from running about, you know," Lynn
was saying in his bluff, open tone.
"Why on earth didn't you write a word
or two to us?" asked Awdrey.
"Oh. I didn't want to make a fuss
nbout a trifle especially at such a tim
and you know what women are when
there's anything the matter with a fel
low," Lynn replied, throwing himself into
a chair.
"Your silence made us think that the
accident was not a trifle," Awdrey said,
half seating himself on the table and fac
ing his friend.
"I see now that I was to blame. I'm
sorry for it. That's all I can say, my
dear fellow."
"I am sorry also. It must hare trou
bled Miss Dalrymple: it would hare of
fended her had she been an ordinary girl
Old Keene here doesn't like you ; I war
rant he has put a bad construction on
your silence and done his utmost to set
her against you. Indeed It taxed my
Ingenuity to find excuses for your neg
lect."
Lynn toyed with his riding whip In si
lence for a few minutes (during which
his quick brain had conceived a plausi
ble means of escape), and then he said
"Awdrey, old fellow, I must tell you
all. I can't keep a secret at any rate,
from you. I purposely stayed away I
raa purposely silent.'
"Why? Let ns have the whole matter
out from beginning to end."
"Some months ago this old rascal here,
Keene for what purpose I cannot im
agine let me to believe that I was heir
to rlexmore's fortune. In the belief that
I should before long be in a decent posi
tion to maintain a wife, I sought to win
Gertrude Miss Dalrymple. Well, on the
day of Flexmore's death I discovered the
truth that I had nothing to expect from
him."
The barefaced effrontery of this lie
nearly took my breath away.
"I had been living rather extravagant
ly," continued Lynn "beyond my means,
(n fact relying on being able to recoup
myself " sooner or later, and then suddenly
I realized that I was thrown upon my
own resources. In debt, and incapable of
providing the woman I loved with the
home I had absolutely offered her a few
days before. Of course, I am to blame
I know that. I ought to have been pru
dent, I ought not to have counted upon
Flexmore's generosity, I ought not to have
offered my hand before I wan assured
beyond the possibility of doubt Uiot I
had enough to marry upon. But you
know what I am a headstrong, impuls
ive, thoughtless, reckless, thrlftles. un
happy wretch I" His voice faltered, he
covered his face with his bands, rose ab
ruptly, stamping with Impatlenco at his
own weakness, and turned In silence to
Che window. It was not a bod piece of
acting; It took Awdrey In completely. He
rose, went to the window, and, slipping
his hand through the other's arm, said :
"There's nothing unpardonable in that,
Lynn nothing that she will not readily
forgive."
"I know it, Awdrey, and that's the
vorst part about it. I must break off the
engagement, but I know not how with
uch a generous girl as that. I know
what she will say when I tell her I am a
beggar; she will say, 'No matter, I can
wait till you are rich. Wait good gra
cious! I am in debt now; a pennilss
beggar I must remain. I haven't the
ability to gain fifty pounds a year, and
never shall have. No; it must be broken
off. I said that from the first. Do you
know, I forced myself to affront her, that
he might throw me over I pretended a
brutally cruel feeling towards dear little
Insure, poor child ! that Gertrude might
think me unfeeling. I went off to Lon
don without a word of farewell, I re
frained from writing one kind word nil
with the same purpose. Don't you see
now?"
"Yee; but all that must be made clear
to her," said Awdrey, slowly. j
"Made dear to her? Is that the way
to break off this unfortunate engage
ment?" "No ; but there Is no necessity to break
off the engagement."
"What do you mean? Surely you
wouldn't have me ask her to wait till I
grow rich rich I I, who never did a
decent day's work In my life."
"No; you will not ask her that She
did not Inquire whether you were rich
or poor when she consented to be your
wife; sho will not refuse you now for any
roason of that kind. You must explain
your silence, and ask her to marry you
at once. Listen to me, Lynn I am not
edvUIng you without reason. Flexmore
wished you to be die guardian, with Miss
Dalrymple, of Uttle Laure, and to take
the interest of the money In trust for her
until she came of nge. By an accident
that wish was prevented from being legal
ly carried out ; but, virtually, you are oil
stuck entitled to the money as though U
C
iccldcut had not hnppened. Miss Dal
ryinple has consented' to tako care of the
hlld permanently relieving me of a cer
tain part of my duty. Legally I nhall
-emoin her guardian, and shall In fact
exercise my function whenever a question
AMes respecting her welfare, but virtu
ally she Is Miss Dalrymplc's ward, and
her services must be paid for. I shall
settle upon her all that Is. paid me as In
tercet arising from Flexmore's bemiest.'
"But, my dear fellow, you are robbing
yourself you are carrying generosity be-
yona nil wie Dounas of reason!" exclaim
ed Lynn.
"No, I am doing nothing of the kind,
I shall simply be carrying out Flexmore's
Intentions, and I shall remain as rich as'
I have, been. Whether you marry Mlsa
Dalrymple or not, I shall settle the money
on her. But now you know you have no
excuse for breaking off the engagement."

Those sponsors made a pretty good
forecast at his character and disposition
when they gave him the name of John
Howard; for I doubt if the great philan
thropist wan ever more loving to the good,
more generous to the erring, or kinder to
the weak.
CHAPTER XIII
I should like to know what you would
have done, se!ng an honest man bam
boozled and cheated by a lying, subtle
rascal on the other side of a half-glazed
door with a taffety blind. If you are an
ordinary person, with an ordinary love of
truth and an ordinary hatred of deceit.
I 11 be bound you would have flung open
that door and told simple Dr. Awdrey
that Lynn Yeames was a liar and a cheat.
and proclaimed all you knew about him
and his motives ; but If you are like me,
a wily old lawyer, yon .would have done
nothing of the kind. For Dr. Awdrey
believed that my prejudice against Lynn
Yeames amounted to a mania ; I had no
proof whatever to substantiate a charge
against him, and in the absence of proof
Dr. Awdrey would be fully Justified in
believing a trusted friend In preference
to biased lawyer. How could I prove'
that he knew nothing about the will be
fore his mother telegraphed to him after
the reading of it? I could only declare
that he did not know; he could declare
that he did. He had Ingenuity to Invent
reasons as good for his knowing the fact
as those I could produce to show that be
was Ignorant of the real truth. In a case
of hard swearing the Judge must Icon
towards the side which seems least capa
ble of duplicity, and It would go hard
with the lawyer In such a cose.
These conditions decided me to leave
the half-glaied door as It was, and to
seek some more than ordinary means of
discomfiting an extraordinary rascal. I
felt sure of this that Dr. Awdrey would
insist upon Lynn going at once and tell
ing his story to his sweetheart; and It
seemed to me that the best thing I could
do was to go to Flexmore House before
hand and prevent Mr. Lynn deceiving
Ming Dalrymple as he had deceived Dr.
Awdrey.
"Mrs. Guttrldge," said I to my house
keeper, who Is a careful woman, and do-
livers messages correctly, "I can't wait
any longer; I don't wish to disturb Dr.
Awdrey and Wh friend, who seem to be
having a nice little chat. If they ask
for me, you will say that I had an ap
pointment to keep, but that I shall be at
home from nine till twelve to-morrow
morning."
With that I trotted off to Flexmore
ITouse as fast a my legs would carry
me; but there was plenty of time to think
on the way, and I had plenty to think
about. How was I to warn Miss Dal
rymple? To tell her bluntly that her
over was a scamp would not do. Her
love would only strengthen in defending
him against his accuser.
But did she still love him? Had she
ever really loved him? I was inclined to
answer no to both questions. I believed
that as yet she had really loved no one.
Yet I was not sufficiently sure to feel
that I could with safety spak openly on
the subject. And that is why I made up
fairy story a pretty occupation for a
lawyer, you will say.
They saw me, Nurse Gertrude and lit-
e Laure, from the drawing room win
dow an I came up the gravel path, and
the child darted off to open the door, and
both welcomed me with smiles on the
threshold.
I found opportunity only to begin my
tory when Mr. Yeames himself appeared.
I gathered up my hat, great coat, com
forter, and stick, and, tucking them under
one arm and little Laure under the other.
lipped into the adjoining room, where
e shut ourselves in, Just as Mr. Yeame
was admitted to the drawing room by the
other door.
I would have given anything to know
what was taking place there; but I could
not well put my ear to the keyhole In the
presonce of little Laure, so I had to con-
ent myself with the hope that Nurse
Gertrude would see through the wiles of
her crafty visitor. It was exasperating
to hear the murmur of voices and not to
distinguish what was being said, however,
learned later on from' a certain source
what took place In this interview, and I
will set It down here as if I had ftui and
hoard all which, in my mind, I certain
ly did when the mero facts of the case
ere made known to me.
Standing by the door as ho closed it
Lynn made a grave Inclination of his bead
rpresalve or respect, contrition any
thing you like; then he stepped forward
hastily with his hand out, his head erect,
his chest thrown forward, In a manly,
honest way. She put her hand Jn hi.
"Can you forgive me; he aakod, hold
ing her band and speaking In that rapid,
full undertone that Is supposed to express
earnest anxiety. "Gertrude I" he added
left arm t take her by the waist.
Nothing succeed like audacity with
certain women; but Gertrude was not of
that set, and, quietly shrinking to avoid
his touch, sho withdrew her hand and
seated herself with the slightest depreca
tory movement of her head. I can see
that rracoful. dignified movement as I
write a kind of "no-thank-you" move-1
ment. With a deep sigh Liynn uroppeu
his hands by his sides and sank into a
chair.
'".I ought to have spoken out at the very
first, I know that," he said, in the tone
of a man candidly admitting an amiable,
weakness. "I ought to have given you en,
explanation ; but I was beside myself that,'

"As you have not offered any erplna-

said Mlsa Dalrymple, with sympathy la

"Indeed I have," he said.
"Then I think a Uttle apparent eccen
tricity of conduct must certainly be for
given;" and so, as If she had dismissed
the subject, she asked In a tone of ordi
nary civility, "And when did you re
turn?" "Oh, I cr came back this morning,
replied Mr. Lynn uncomfortably.
"Dr. Awdrey has asked frequently af
ter you.. suppose you have not had
time to call upon him."
"No that Is, yes; I saw him coming
along."
"How very fortunate! Mr. Keene has
been Inquiring about you. Of course, you
have not seen him?" '
Not knowing how much she knew, he
had to admit the fact that he had sees
me also.
"Er yes, I have; had to call upon hdm
on a pressing matter of business, you
know."
"Then, now I suppose you have satl
fled nearly everybody's curiosity. Isn't It
a great relief to you?"

TIREE-DESTHOYIWQ RIVER.
Wwltrn Stream that Charra Up ttaa
Growth Alona the Dialu.
The Gila river enters the Colorado
Just west of Yuma, and we crossed its
angry waters through a maze of eddies
and whirlpools through which Immense
quantities of driftwood were whirling
In a mad race, says a writer In Har
per's Magazine. Escaping the worst of
the turmoil, we reached the town at
racing speed and made triumphant
landing with half our journey accom
plished.
At most places along shore the river
bad reached the line of older growths
and was leveling the larger trees by
hundreds wherever a bend of the river
directed the force of tho current against
the far shore. Trees ten Inches In diam
eter and twenty to thirty feet high were
constantly toppling Into the insatiable
river.
The fall of these larger trees was
always graceful. The first Intimation
of It was a distinct shiver that ran
through the entire tree, but was most
marked In the upper branches; a mo
ment later the tree would bend grace
fully forward as If bowing to Its
enemy. An instant's pause ana It
would sink slowly Into the rushing
waters that had reached to the loosened
and Inshore roota
Tree after tree of this large growth
would start down the river broadside
to the current. Slowly at first It would
roll over and over, tangling Its branches
Into a great skeleton wheel, rolling fast
er and faster as the branches became
more Impacted and presented fewer
projecting points to catch nnd hold a
moment in the shallower renches.
Eventually the branches would be worn
off In such progress, leaving only tlio
tougher roots to retard It Then the de
nuded tree would give up the struggle,
and whirling Into tho line of least re
sistance, would float head on down
stream until caught by the spreading
roots In Borne Bballow.

not as good as lots one and four. It Is
