Mrs. Trevanion and Dallas had lunched
and were sitting in the pretty, shady
drawing room in London. Dallas had
unbosomed himself entirely to his dear
friend—had told her all his story, some
parts of it twice over.
'H a v e you told me all?” says Mrs. T re
vanion, presently.
‘‘A ll.’*
H e hud not said anything about having
kissed June; but, after all, that wus a
mere detail.
‘ ‘And you did not tell her that you
loved her or hint a word about marriage?”
‘ ‘No. O f course, she could see by my
manner that---- ”
“ O f course.” smiles Mrs. Trevanion,
thinking how very unmistakable Dal’ s
manner is when he is in love. ‘‘And you
think that she-----”
Dallas nods, and looks the least bit shy.
‘ ‘Does it sound very conceited to say
so ?”
‘ ‘It is just possible,” observes Mrs. T re
vanion, with a lurking smile, ‘‘that she
may have taken a fancy to you. But if
you have given your word to your cou
sin---- ”
Dallas frowns and opens and shuts his
cigarette case with a snap, which is a
trick of bis when worried and perplexed.
‘‘ But she assured me positively that she
never, never would marry Tom.”
“ W hat made her tell you that?”
“ Oh, something I said about hoping she
would let me come when she was mistress
at the Hull.”
“ And, after that your cousin went
away, and you two were thrown together,
mid—by the way, Dal, what was his
another thinking about?”
“ She doesn’t want Tom to marry Miss
l l i vers.”
“ Oh!” Mrs. Trevanion sees at once how
-the land lies. “ Why not?”
“ M y aunt is a very ambitious woman,
you know; she wants Tom to marry what
she calls well! Tom has lots o f money,
and this girl is the sweetest, most charm
ing creature in ull the world, and a per
fect lady, and yet his mother don’t think
her good enough.”
“ Then what would your mother think?”
asks Mrs. Trevanion, quietly.
“ She would bo dead against it, of
course. But one doesn’ t marry to please
•oue’s mother.”
“ Well, dear boy, your mother would
Duly think what was perfectly right and
true. You cannot marry her.” And Mrs.
Trevanion Jpoks Dallas straight in the
face.
“ Oh, my dearest friend, don’t you say
that!” he cries, his blue eyes growing dim.
“ I f you only knew what I feel for that
girl! she would make a different man of
me. I could give up the life I Am leading
now like a shot for her sake, if I could
only hope things would come right some
day.”
“ But things could not come right, short
of your father dying, and he is not the
least likely to do that. Let us look mat
ters in the face,” urges Mrs. Trevanion.
“ Could you keep a w ife on seven hundred
a year? You know you cannot live ou
that alone now.”
“ She has been brought up very quietly,
and I could give up anything for her.”
Mrs. Trevanion feels she has made a
mistake. What man in love is not ready
to give up everything (in theory) for the
sake o f the woman he is dying to possess?
“ Then l must put it to your honor. You
promised your cousin not to stand in his
way.”
“ But.” cried Dallas, getting tip and
walking excitedly about, “ she says she
never will marry him.”
“ But she will,” remarked Mrs. Tre
vanion, calmly, “ as soon ns she has for
gotten you.”
“ You may Is' right,” says Dallas, pull

“ She was fond of him before she saw

“ What a bad opinion yon have of me!”
exclaims Dallas, dejectedly.
“ Do you think so?”
And she smiles
and holds out her hand, which he clasps
warmly. “ My dear, you are young; you
have been a little bit spoilt; you have an
affectionate nature; you cannot exist with
out loving some one.”
“ That’s quite true,” assents Dallas,
gravely. “ But what will she think of
me?”
“ Very badly, I hope. Because then she
will soon get over her heartache.”
“ But you surely wouldn’t have her
think me a blackguard! I must write to
her and explain.”
“ You must not do anything o f the
sort,” rejoins Mrs. Trevanion. quickly.
“ You must on no account write her one
