Arthur drew back Id aetonlttnient at

laacd away, the eys melted again Into
dove-like softness and the tip wreathed
themselves Into smllm.
"What wltl you think ot me. for such
vord aa those?" aha cried. "When you
know thoroughly the strange, capricious
creature I am, ntrer In the same mood
for two hours together, you will cease to
love me."
"Perhaps it will make me lore jou the
mora." he said, smilingly. "And Is your
hatred, yaur dread of poverty so very In1
uncountable? Suppose that I were erer
to become poor; would you cease to lore
tne?"
"You erer become poor!" she echoed.

hare a great estate, and who will one day
be Sir Arthur? I low can you erer be

"Such things lure been," he aald, smil
ing. -"Great lords hare been reduced to
fceggary, much leas simple sirs."
"Why do you with to torture me by
such taonghniT" she cried, petulantly.
"Hare I not told you that the name of
gwrerty make me shudder?"
There was a cloud of dnea upon Ills
face, bat the shadows of night were too
deep for her to percelre It.
Arthur was greatly aftonlshed at this
eiudden outburst, but he attached no
weight to It, Imputing It to morbid petu
lance. So he spoke to her soothing words,
and caresaed her out of her sullen humor,
ami she began to repett of baring spok
en so freely.
"You most not notice my foolish
words," she said; "at times, I do not
know what I say, and to hear me talk,
you would fancy that I waa a perfect
monster: but promise that you will never
tieed auch humors."
Hours after Arthur bad departed, and
after all else In the house was asleep, she
at In the solitude of her own chamber,
her hair hanging loosely about her about
tiers, a prey to conflicting emotions.
""What could possess me to speak such
words?" she murmured. "In a less gen
erous man I might hare aroused suspi
cions that I ahould oerer again be able
to set at rest. Dut he Is too noble, too
frank, to suspect where he loves. I would
that I were more worthy of him," she
vent on, with a sigh; "he Is the rery
out of honor so different from all other
men that I hare met. I with he did not
love me half so well, or that I did not
lore him at all. t spoke truly when I
told him that I never knew I had a
beart until he crossed my path. What
made him harp so atrangely upon pov
erty to-night? Surely there Is nothing
wrong; things do go wrong, even with
dukes occasionally aa he nimself said
and great people are sometimes even sold
up like little ones. I shall pay Sir. Wy
lie a visit in the morning and question
tilm about Arthur's affairs."
CHAlTEIt XVI.
Mr. Wylle bad returned from his Cor
nish trip, and had resumed business as
usual. lie bad been more than aatlsfled
Trltb the survey of the estate that be al
ready grasped In Imagination. lie had
siren Mrs. Wylle a most glowing descrip
tion of Its picturesque grandeur, and of
the floe old Oastle: and be told ber of the
atrange legend that waa so near upon
liflng refined.
"I hare "heard something of It before
from Arabella." said that lady, "but ner
err the name of the family. It la certainly
very atrange."
In only one plot had he rrcelred a
rheck that for the marriage of Stafford
nnd Constance: but he felt pretty well
Hssured of Its ultimate success. "Tbt
l-cggarly upstart I" was his thought. "I
would give a thousand pounds to foil him
In that quarter; but I never allow pri
vate feelings to interfere -vlth business.
It suits my purpose that be should marry
tier, and so I shall do all that lie in
sny power to promote the match.'
Such were some of the tnougbt that
passed through Mr. Wylle's mind as he
vat at his deik. In the mldtt of his cogi
tations, Mrs. Castleton was announced.
TTe rose to receive her wIJi his usual
adulatory politeness, and banded ber a
!halr.
"So you hare returned from your Cor
lab expedition," she said ; "And the mar
riage Is broken off."
"And "how does the little lore-making
yrog'ess?" he asked, with a sardonic
grin. "Has the bait taken? Is the Ash
looked? Is It to be Lady Penrhyddyn?"
"Wylle," -she said, In a quiet, grare
tone, "we hare concocted between us a
tie, despicable acbeme to entrap this
jouug man. If I had strength of mind
enough to sacrifice my own selflsh ambi
tion for another's liapplness, he ahould
merer see me again: but I hare not, and
therefore I go on. Hut yon will not Jeer
aiud aneer at least, to my fare. Let me
try and forget the part I am playing, and
deceive myself into the belief that I am
All that I pretend to be."
Mr. Wylle regarded her for a moment
an unfeigned amazement. "What I" he
cried, after a pause; "do you mean to
y that It la a real case of spoons upon
lxth aides r
"Never mind what it 1st" she cried,
fiercely. "If It ""ch the better

A quirk glance shot from beneath hi
eyelids; but he spoke In the vtrue tone ot
voice that be bad used throughout the
conversation.
"How should I know? I am not his
hanker. A man of his estate cannot be
rery poor. Ills lawyer, If he would give
It, would be the best person to go to for
such Information."
She could endure this binterlng Mt
casm no longer; and with flashing eyes,
nd fare alt aglow, she sprang tip tike a
beautiful tigress, as though she would
leap upon him and rend him with her
nails.
Mr. Wylle drew back and turned a
shade paler, for he feared this woman
when she was In thcoe tlgerWb moods.
And she spoke In a low, hltslng tone,
more deadly than would have been a
shriek ot passion.
"Cease this mocking, or I will clutch
you by the neck, and never !ooe my hold
until I have strangled the miserable life
out of your body t I)ont let me think ot
all the debt of hatred I owe you don't
make me think of It, or there will be mur
der! I have served you In manv schemes,
and do not try to cast me off 'he Instant
I hare become useless to you, cr to play
me false; for If you do I'll hme your life.
If you fly to the furthest extremity of the
world I"
Mr. Wylle was more frightened than he
would have cared to admit, even to him
self. Ebullitions ot passion were of fre
quent occurrence; Indeed, an Interview
between thee two seldom paed off with
out such; but he had never before wlt-N
nested In her such appalling ferocity.
"Well," he said, trying to laugh off bis
palpable uneasiness "perhaps we shall
be able to talk more reasonable You are
like a barrel of gunpowder. I was only
Jesting. You wish to know whether Sir
Launce Penrhyddyn Is a rich man; he Is
not. Hut his con will Inherit enough to
keep you tike a lady. What made you
suppose him to be poor?"
"Ilecause last night he kept harping
upon poverty; asked me It I could love
htm aa much It he were poor."
"A mere lorer'a ruse to try you, depend
upon it; and If you fall Into the trap,
you hare lost him. It Is true 'that the
estates ot I'enrhyddyn are heavily mort
gaged, and that the principal wilt be call

will be able to meet the demand. I can
how you Indisputable proof ot the truth
of my word," he cried, taking a paper
out of the Inner lining of his pocketbook.
"Come here and read this."
She came to the table, and looking over
bla shoulder, read these words:
"To Arthur Penrbyddyn, Ksq.t
"Sir Should all other means fall, your
father. Sir Launce, may obtiln the sum
required by blm on a certain date, by
showing this letter to Messrs. OJroom and
Fry. Solicitors, Bedford Itow.
When Mrs. Castleton returned to ber
carriage she Immediately drove away to
the ofllcea ot Messrs. uroom and try,
Hedford ltow.
She requested to see one of the princi
pals, and was shown into a private room
where Mr. Fry received ber. She bad
come, ahe said, with her most fascinating
smile, to make Inquiries respecting a cer
tain sum which she understood they were
instructed to pay over to Sir Launce
Penrhyddyn upon a certain date. The
lawyer waa rery cautions In his reply. He
had received certain Instructions, but he
waa not at liberty to divulge them to any
person except Sir Launce Penrbydryn,
Mrs. Castleton having learned all that
she Wished to know, made some trivial
excuse and took ber leave.
"It is all right, then," she thought;
"they have Instructions, and of course
they must be those mentioned in the pa
per," On that same morning, as Arthur waa
turning the corner of Arundel street Into
the Strand, be felt a band laid upon his
shoulder, and heard a familiar voice pro
nounce bla name. Upon looking round he
recognised Stafford,
"When did you arrive In town?" In
quired Arthur.
"Only the day before yesterday," an
swered the artist.
"And bow did you leave my father?"
"Vtrj unwell. Had bis health permit
ted, be would have been in London some
daya back. There Is no danger, I have
to thank you very much for your Intro
duction, old fellow; the kindness I met
at Penrhyddyn Castle waa more than I
can describe. Your father Is the truest,
noblest gentleman I erer met"
Arthur pressed bis friend's band grate
fully, nad added, "How did ho take the
news of the break with the firlersons?"
"Very philosophically; Indeed, I may
say, with much satisfaction. Mr. Wylle's
visit put blm out of all conceit with the
connection. liy-the-bye, I have a secret
to tell you about Constance Orlerson,
You remember that ahe spoke of a prior
attachment to some one else? Well, I
am that some one else."
"Hut why did you not tell roe so when
I first spoke to you upon the subject?"
cried Arthur. "Under such circumstances
I should never bare thought of paying
vaj addresses to the lady."
At tbat moment their conversation waa
Interrupted by a light pony carriage draw
ing up close to the pavement on which
they were walking, and by a lady rolce
pronouncing the nam of "Mr, Penrbyddyn."

her thought. It waa a case ut mutual

"Who li that lady?" Inquired Stafford,
following her with his cjew until she was
out of sight, i
"Oh, a widow lady, to whom I have re

somewhat coutuncdty.

"This must be the place," thought Staf-
ford, as he entered the shop. His knoek !
upon the counter brought forth from an

by showing the sketch he had made, and
asking blm If be remembered selling such
a picture a few weeks ago to a middle

scarcely remember bow I got If," answer

"If five shillings would aislst your

Stafford.

"And did you buy the picture upon the

quired Stafford, "without endeavoring to

"Well, you see, It doesn't do to be over

old man. with a knowing grin. She was

had her story so glib that I didn't put
