    THE CONQUEST Of
MRS. VIVIAN.
By CrARLES K.ENNETT BURROW.
TUE BRISTl TE garden party wu'
a deadly v'.l affair. I tried to
convince myseif that I wen froni
cense of duty, but w hen a rapid survey
failed to reveal the alight figure and
delicious Irresponsibility of Jack Vivi
an, the sense of duty theory collapsed.
Mrs. Vivian, I thought, had been In
clined to treat me somewhat coldly,
and I wondered, rather angrily, how
she came to have such a daughter as
Jack. There was a certain vague sem
blance between them, certainly, but
nothing could convince me that Mrs.
Vivian bod ever been slight, and my
Imagination was not strong enough
even to suggest that she bad ever been
Irresponsible.
There were not more thau half a
dozen people whom I knew, and of
them not more than two whom I cared
to talk to. Most of the men seemed
to have got together In the middle of
the tennis lawn, the ladies were lan
guishing In the shnil.' of the beeches;
only one or two couples seenitd to be
engaged In occupation for which, sure
ly, gnrden parties alone were Invented.
Mrs. Ilristowe, my hostess, seemed very
much depressed.
"Why don't things move feeder, Mr.
Milclinny?" she asked, plaintively.
"Why don't those WTetched men do
something?"
"My dear lady," I said, "they never
do at these affairs. I don't know why
it is; perhaps there's too much daylight
for them."
"Hut one most give garden parties,"
she said.
"I thank Trovldence I have no gor
den," I suid. "I might manage a little
donee, a very little one. In my studio,
but a bachelor can't do that kind of
thing," you know."
"1 wish you'd go and talk to Mrs.
Vivian," she suld; "she's sitting all
alone there, and thinking of nasty
tilings to say afterward."
I wanted to talk to Mrs. Vivian, so I
went. The fnet is, I knew that Jack
had a great talent for drawing and
wanted to cultivate It, and I had a
vague idea that I might indue' Mrs.
Vivian to ullow me to give her daugh
ter lessons, particularly as it would
cost her nothing. It was a wild no
tion, but worth trying, and Jack agreed
with me. I therefore strolled) up to
Mrs. Vivian and sat down by her In a
casual way.
"The parties here are always so slow,
aren't they?" she asked.
"Are they slower here than anywhere
else?"
"I trust ours are not so dull," she
snapped.
"Ah, but you have a genius' for social
organization," I said, unblushlngly ;
"anil so few people have even talent."
I do not wish to depreciate Mrs. Vivian,
but her love of flattery was as great as
her rapacity for small and totally un
necessary lying. Hhe condescended to
anille upon me. "People are so differ
ent," she suid.
"You would notice that all the more
after your stay In the country. I said.
"How charming the roast is at I'm
quite, and what glorious skctchii.fr
ground? I suppose Minn Vivian did
some work there?"
She Ignored the last part of my ques
tion. "Do you know that part of tlie
world ?" she asked.
"Oh, yes," I said, "perfectly.
"That reminds nie," she said, smiling
again, "that I met a Col. Mildiuay at
my cousin's house. It did not occur
to me that he might be a relative of
jours. Is he?"
"He's my uncle, and a dear old boy,
too; but I don't see much of him now."
Her manner Instantly thawed; I be
lieve she had nn Idea that an artist
must necessarily be the son of a fraud
ulent bankrupt or a fourth-rate actor,
or something of that sort. Then she
oondescrnded to answer my previous
question.
"Indeed, how strange that we should
meet in that way! l'hoehe painted a
good deal while she was there."
I wondered, fur moment, who
l'hoelie was I had called her Jack for
quite three mouths.
I felt that I Mas gelling on famously,
and was Jiih t arranging- in my miud
how to make the next step when Mrs.
Vivian spoke aga,in.
"What a charming place Lord St.
Alley 11 has. nt I'olgiirth," she said.
"Very," I answered, eying her fur
tively. "And what a delightful man he is,"
she said; "we dined there twice."
"lie's an old chum of mine," I said;
"we wre up at Oxford together." I
auw her wince, and hrr manner re
luxed even further. I felt profoundly
sorry for Jack.
"llow Interesting," she said.
"I see almost more of him than of
any of the old set," I suid. "We used
to get into glorious scrapes together.
He never did any work."
"And I suppose you did?" she sug
gested. "A little," I admitted),
"Oh, you young men." she laughed,
n ml wagged her false old head.
I have not, ns n rule, brtn a particu
larly lucky man, but certainly that aft
ernoon tin' fall's wiTv' on my side. As
I turned to see what hud become of
Mis. Itristnwe I ln'lield the familiar
figure of in j old frbjd St. Alleyne

house, lie iik strolling along In hi

dressed, perfectly at cum-, apparently
thinking of nothing. I knew the atti

ne bore slowly down upon us. I made
a sudden move In his direction, which
caused my companion' eyes to fol
low me.
"Who is that very distinguished
looking man?" ahe asked.
Providence had indeed delivered Mrs.
Vivian into my band I I engaged
her eye as I replied, without any show
of surprise at the question: "That is
Lord Kt. Alleyne."
I never saw terror ait more palpably
upon a face; then, without a word
suid, the terror changed to beseech
ing. I reully felt sorry for Mrs. Viviun
at that moment, but 1 thought of Juck
and hardened my heurt.
"Allow nie to present you to him," I
said, llefore she bad time to reply I
had advanced half a dozen steps to
meet him.
"I want to Introduce you to Mrs.
Vivian," I said. "You know all about
my love affuir."
"Which one?" he asked.
"The. one," I said. He thought care
fully for a minute.
"Do you mean Jack?" he asked.
"Of course I do."
"Well?"
"Mrs. Vivian Is Jack's mother."
I glanced across the lawu and saw
Jack herself, alone, shining white
against some dark laurels. My mind
was Instantly made up.
"Well?" he su UI, uguin.
"I want you to talk to her for ten
minutes. Ami, like a dear old chap,
suyyili the nice things you can about
me, will you?"
"You want me to bamboozle her, do
you?"
"I want to marry Jack," I suid.
"All my friends are inurrying," St.
Alleyne murmured) "they'll soon be
all gone. I'm always doing them good
turns, and they never do anything
for me."
"I'M do anything you like for you if
you'll only manage this," I said. As
1 turned he caught me by the arm.
"Look here," he suid, "what am 1 to
talk about rising artist, increasing
popularity and all that kind of
thing?"
"I leuve it to you. Hut for heaven's
take don't give me away." He. smiled
tenderly.
"As if I could," be said.
I saw that Mrs. Vivian's face flamed
as I presented him. I had never seen
her blush before; but ut the same time
there win a kind of feeble triumph in
her expression that made me sick. St.
Alleyim dropped languidly at hermit'
and I sped across the lawn. Mrs. Viv
ian was ut liberty to look us much us
alio liked; I could trust my friend to
hold her.
Juck snw me coming and turned
away towards the rose garden; 1
blessed both her and her ncutcuess us
1 followed. She paused when we
seemed fairly alone.
"Where huvc you been all the after
noon?" "Talking to Mrs. Vivian."
"Oh!" she said, "wasitlnteresting?"
"Very. And you?"
"I've been waiting for you."
"Well, I'm here now. . , . Jack!"
"Yes," she said.
"You want to murry nil. don't you,
Jack?"
"You silly boy," she said. I took her
hand and held it so that no one could
ee.
I "Yuu know you do," I said; "you told
'nie so once."
"Did I?" she asked, closing her fin
gers tightly over mine.
"Yes; and I'm going to marry you."
"You deur boy!" she said. "Hut how
csn you? Maminii will never consent."
I thought I detected a hint of tears in
her eyes.
"Hut if I gain her consent, and this
very afternoon?"
She looked nt me with all her youth
on lire. I leaned towards her sudden
dy and ahe kissed me; the thing w as in
evitable. If the world had been look
ing on 1 believe she would have kissed
nie then.
"My dearest l'hil,"slie said. "I'll mar
ry you whenever you "like." She
looped above a rose bush and plucked
a blossom; I bent over her shoulder,
and my lips brushed her eur and cheek
delii'iously.
"I'hil, l'hil!" she cried. I followed
her glance, and there was Mrs. Vliian
ailing towards us, leuniiig heavily on
St. Alleyne's ami!
I felt convinced, by the indifference
of St. Alleyne's manner, that he had
been doing his duty to me. lie left .Mrs.
Vivian with nie, saying: "I'll see you
later, old chap," mid he added, in a
whisper: "Strike now."
1 did strike, and I noil that after
noon. The feeble objections that Mrs.
Vivian offered were easily overcome; I
attai-ked them all triumphantly and
gained her consent; it was not given
grndginc-ly. cither, and although Jack
could not understand it. I could.
1 walked home with St. Alio ne after
wards. "I hud an aw fill piartei--of an
huur with that woman," he said; "ou
reully should have more consideration
for a man."
"I'm niur eternal debtor,

"What dul mi talk about?"
"You," he said.
"Did thot t ire v on?"
"Horribly." he murmured.

"All yuu beggar are getting mar

"Marry Mis. Vivian," I suid; "she's

Club to tin: I. about it.
"It won'd be rather fun. wouldn't It ?
If I were torn orr I wouldn't mind, but

cold and clear, eict-pt for a heavy Lank of
cloud flowiy liaii.g in the north. It waa
too lovt ly to itay atulfwl up in the hou?e
all the afternoon.
"It won't hurt you, I'll lake cart of you.
and we'll only go on the nearby roada.
Coma on, Dick," tempted th visitor.
"I ought not to," aaid Dick, alowly. It
waa ao hard to rifuae, for h wanted to
much to go.
"Do aa you like," aaid Tom. "I am go

the waiting pony.
.fuat at that momeni a low, aorrowful

"Come, Tom, let's kurry home," railed

"It'a jolly now I am not going until the

"I tell vou it's gong i h a Imd atorni.

"Hi, I Kiy, D.ck, ootne back!" called the
older b), liut he wna already out of hear

lufrrily on.
It waa dark when Mr. Wilmur reanhed

cutiing.
"L'm-a fair start, that," said Algie to

the re.ticua amlier priwliii-t ol (iiull. '"htcam

W hich Algie did. He hsd, however, to
tsks odds which were cut before his ad-
vanie along the line the rumor ol a new
plunger having spread with its tustoii.niy
rapidity in the ring. Algie ielt an inward
sense of tliiiinptl when lie v c.ivcd ti nt

him with respect, but that t! cy were nib

he stood to win about Sil.iSXI if Stiain Holler
romped home, as Algie hsd every reason to
expect.
And, as will be recalled by renders of the
race reports, of course Algie's riprctalion
was realized. It was Steam Holler's ince

by live lergths.
