She has changed her mind. Do yon think she has heard v about Edith?" .. , . . v "Edith r Ob, of course Enid must be christened ' afresh. -No; that isn't Jt It would not be fair to you to sny that I tMnk you are mistaken; but. from -v.-hat I know of the lady, I feel sure ' h( will meet yon fairly when the time comes." -" . ; "," ; "Ah. yon agree with me," then?" "In admitting a doubt in advising jtb? delay you have, already suggested -j-ps." , " ' " ' " : "She told you I had written?" "More than that. She asked me if I was aware of it3 explanation." g. j" " "And you said?" . "Exactly, what I said to you. You tr both sensible people. I cnn hardly imapine tbr.t any misunderstanding can exist after an hour's talk,"; . ; Mr. Traill looked at his watch. 'A carriage stopped at the hotel. '; "Here's, Stanhope and hist mother," cried Tyne. So his unch hurried off to receive his guests. Z Lady Margaret was a well preserved woman of aristocratic pose, but her . serenity was disturbed. Although the ' land was ringing with the fame of her, ao's exploit, and her mother's heart was throbbing with,' pride; there, had: boon . tearful hours of . vigil j for her. ;Kot without a struggle had she aban doned her hopa that he would make-a .Iwell endowed match. . ' 1 When Constance and Enid arrived ish? was very stately and dignified,' Scrutinizing, with all a mother's incre- dulity. the girl who had caused her to capitulate: , ;: '" -:- , ' y Biit Enid' scored a prompt . success. She swept aside the almost unconscious 'reserve 'with which Jack's ,, mother greeted her. - : l: - "You knew,", she murmured wistful ly. "We did not. They would not tell "Us. i How you must have suffered until : the news came that he had escaped." ; Lady Margaret drew the timid girl Hearer and kissed her, "My dear," she whispered, "I am be ginning to understand why Jack loves . you. Ho is my only san, but you are worthy him." Mrs. Vansittsrt's appearance created a timely diversion. She had obtained: a black lace dress. It accentuated the settled pa Hon of her face but she was 'perfectly self possessed and uttered a nice womanly compliment to the two girls, who wore white demitoilet cosh tumes. ,; "'' "You look delightful," she said. : "When all is said and done we women should never despise our wardrobe. That ; marvelous lighthouse , had one grave defect in my f eyes. It was dreadfully callous to feminine require ments." ( Here Was a woman rejuvenated, re stored to ' her natural surroundings. They accounted for the subtle change In her by the fact that they had seen her hitherto under unfavorable condi tions. Even Pyne, not wholly pleased with her in. the past, found his critical judgment yielding when she apologized sweetly " to 'Lady Margaret .. for her tardiness. "There wera two children saved from the wreck. Poor little mites, how they reveled In a hot bath? I could not. leave them until they were asleep." . - J "I needed twp Jiot baths," said Pyne. "No. 1 dug me out of the shell, and No. 2 helped me to recognize myself." During dinner there was much to tell end to henr, Mrs. Vansittart said litt tie, save to interpose a word now 'and then when Constance or Enid would have skimmed too lightly the record of their own services. ; ; . , They did not hurry over the meaL All were in the best possible spirits, and the miseries of the Gulf Rock might never have existed for this lively company were it not that -four among them bore clear tokens of the depriva tions they hsd endured, r , A waiter interrupted their joyous chatter at its highest. He bent over Mr. Traill and discreetly conveyed some communication. "I am delighted," cried the million aire heartily. "Show him in at once." He rose from his chair to do honor to an unexpected guest. "You will all be pleased to hear," he explained, "that Mr. Brand Is .ashore and has come to see us." , Mrs. Vansittart stifled the cry on her lips.;; The slight color which had crept Into her pale cheeks yielded to a death ly v hue. It chanced that the others weri looking expectantly toward the door and did not notice her. Brand entered. In acknowledging Mr. Traill's cordial welcome he smil ingly explained his presence. , "My superiors sent me emphatic or ders to clear out," he said, "so I had no option but to obey. I conveyed Mr. Emmett to suitable quarters and has tened home, but found that the girls .were playing truant My housekeeper Insisted that I should eat, else she would not be satisfied that I still lived, but I came here as quickly as possi ble." - - - ,.- -?,v;-'S At that instant his glance, traveling from one to another of those present, fell on Mrs. Vansittart . - He stood as one pe trifled. , The kind ly words of his host the outspoken glee of the' girl at bis appearance, bled away In his ears ta hollow edwes. DroWHk, .eenieff to" ask ir, he 'were not the victim of some unnerving halluci nation. '- They were fixed on Mrs. Yan sittart's face- with- an all absorbing in tensity, and his set lips and clinched hands 'showed how' utterly irresistible was the knowledge that indeed he was not deceived: that be was gazing at a living, breathmg personality' and not at some phantom product of a sur charged brain. - She, too.' yielding" before the sudden--ness'of an ordeal " she had striven to S"t" avoid; betrayed byber laboring boson) thai .she iwjas jinder:the spell of some excitement of overwhelming power. ;'-'' She managed to gam "her feet The1 consciousness "thatn Constance, Enid, Lady Margaret even, were looking at her and at Brand with amazed anxiety served to strengthen her. for a supreme effort. " " ' ' v .t 1 "Mr. Stephen Brand and I are old acquaintances' she gasped. i"He mayi misunderstand my presence here to night. Indeed in this instance I am not" toWame. fT could 'not help my self. I am always frying to explain but somehjjwj-l never" succeed. Oh!" 1 Wit JatjcCsonizedv sigh she swayed listlessly and would have fallen had not Pyne caught her. --jBut she was desperately .determined not ,r to , faints-there. This was her 'world the' world of society. She would ncrtyifild in Its presence'. rj - Her eyes, wandered, vaguely, helpless ly1,' from 'the face of the man toward the others. Constance had hastened to He stood as one petrified. her assistance, and the knowledge that this was so seemed to stimulate her to a higher degree. With 'fine courage she grasped the back of a chair and summoned a wan smile to her aid. . "You will forgive me if I leave you," she . murmured. - : "I ' am' so , tired so very tired." - r.-.,,--.., She walked resolutely toward the door. Brand drew aside that she might pass. He looked at her no more. His wondering daughter saw that big drops of perspiration stood on his forehead, ' "Mrf Tra!Il,J 'no less astonished . than the rest" offered to conduct Mrs. -Vansittart to her room.
