Let us toV business how goes your wooing?" "Excellent well, Julian give me but time to contrive the matter with duo deliberation and she's mine, Julian, mine!" "I wonder'" rotorted the Invalid. "Whence this sudden assurance, my lord? By all accounts Bhe Is no childish miss to blush at your lordly beck, or come simpering to your so masterful embrace." "True enough, Julian but," and' here my lord took on an expression ot unexpected, ruthless determina tion, "consider, Julian a solitary house, an ardent wooer a day and night and final discovery! Such methods may bond tlio most stub born ot feminine wills eh, Julian? As for 'the D'Arcy' she was all graclousncRS this morning. I begin to think Dcspard's scheme may prove unwanted."

Tut, tut!" murmured Julian, taking up n ollvor-mountod pistol from where it lay on the 1 11 11 o tnblo and glancing to tho Viscount's back. I Seeing tho Viscount neither stirred nor spoke, Julian slipped the pistol under his pillow; said ho: "Now, though all tlosh porlshoth, the writ ten word onditreth.

"Ay, so leave mo. Will." But no sooner had tho door closed upon his lordship than Julian took pen and paper and began to write with a certain fuvcrlsh hnsto. When next ho glanced up It was to see Tom Pitt within a yard ot his bed. "Hn, rogue rogue!" ho gasped, covering what he hud written with quick hand. "Wilt creep on mo, yon dog; wilt spy?" "No, sir, no, Indeed, Mr. Jullnn; I'm hero at my lordship's bidding." "Then begono nt mine, grub, nnd suffer nono to trouhlo nio stay! Hid tho captain to me so soon as he comes In." Left nlone, Jullnn finished his writing and, having read it over, glnnced about his chamber, with oyos quick and eager, frowning tho while as one nt a loss.
