He sat down listlessly, word. : i. ¡.- why upon earth ht Imd let his v.latlle cousin drag him with her to sin ha I <: <4 ly crush. Then ffltadenly be la cm- p con scious that he wns nst so alout and -mob- served uh be imagined. A girl was sittii.g 1 1 a low chair nearly faring hin , a twinkle of amu.sament in iter vy< 9 as tin y met bin own. “St< plmule! is it indeed you?” “It ts Indi ■ d.” she rcturmd. “I hove txjen watching you for the last ten mir. utes, feeling fo sorry for you.” “I was bored to< xtinotion,” he allowed, smiling hack at la r. “Indeed,’ she ponder d r< !!<cth(ly. “It all depends how u.e lool s i.l it, don’t you know. For instance, Mrs. Calk ndrr i.-u- ally has a lot of crkbri’icR, Lid thin, too. one may always Lu certain of Liar.ug leal ly good music.” “Do you still Ring, Stephanie?” “Yes, indeed. I am going to sing for Mrs. (Jallctjder presently.’’ “It is so long since 1 heard you/’ Ik.n- dal Stacey went on dreamily “Do you remember those summer evenings when you used to play ami sing to ns het wet 11 the lights? You uro very little cham-ed, Stephanie, since thor.e old days. Ji'iw long ago if serins! Is it four or five year. : Where have you been all tIlls time, and what have you beep doing?” “Didn't you know where I v . t .8?” she ask< d quietly. “Ye rs, I heard at the time, but”— “But you thought It best not to go and see for yourself, ” she put in, vs lib a tinge of mockery in her clear, sue; t voice. She lifted Lt r ( y< s to bis .-.ml m< t his gaze tn silence—n silence that made him vaguely uncomfortable. “I was young and foollsn,” she said presently, speakii.g In a calm, m.atri r of fact tone, “and at ti e tin c I did n< t un derstand v, hat was perfectly j lain to me afterward. It was extremely dense of me, I admit.” “You are speaking in enigmas.” he re joined a trifle brnsqm ly and awkwardly. “I wish you’d bo a little mure explb it.” There was u pause, during which the thoughts of imh had down buck to that past he bail conjured up. “Five years ago—bow long it seems! Much can happen in that time, and inu< h has happened. You aro changed, for in stance. You have grown visibly older by those five yarn. ” This was not the Stephanie ho bad known in “those old days,“ and yet bow sweet and altogether desirable she seemed I “Yrs,” slm went on, “you were different then, or t1>e a plan.ottr lay ovtryou that I was too infatuated to see through. Ke- • member how I worshiped your beauty, 1 bow I helievi d you to Io all that was grand and noble”—the laitphit g mockery in la r tones made I.bn wince—“so painfully youthful and foolish of me, was it noli You told mo a fortune lay in my video — do you recollect?—and you were inclined to rave over my little rkitclies of charac ter, but still, when I was left alone in the world, to sink or swim us best I might, you rifruimd from holding out u helping hand to me, vvla n a word from you, w ho had already won your way in the literary world, might haxesaxid me many a for lorn, heartbroken hour, and”— “I didn't know! ' broke in Stacey eager ly. “B'llew 11 e, I knew nothing, or 1 would have lalpil you. I would hav€ done anything f< »• you, Stephanie.” “Yeu didn't know !” sheechoi d. “Bui you youtsi If pointed out my capabilities of which 1 was Ignorant.” “Yes, yes, I I;now,” he protested. “Om says what «mo can to < ncoiit.-.ge, of course but J saw nothing to make me suppose yoi would do more than others are trying t< do. There Is no royal road to succi s^ cither in writing or singing, Stc| lianle.” “You spoke dillert-m ly then, but I sup pose your word* had no meaning, an) more (ban (he other ihlngs you said.” “Stephanie, you aro hard on me, bu hear me before you condemn. Justice a* least should < iimpi I that much. I did can for you in tl.m-e old days. I don't thii.l you havoev.r I t i n long absent from n j thoughts, I nt I wns a struggling author and 1 luiil no right to ask jou to si are si vagtton future, so I took the whest cours«, in going away and leaving you ire?.” “Still,” alm persisted in tho sumo cold swevlt voice, “you might have shown im how to lire the literar- • r musical |owii> you tobl mo I pos'issid, might you not?’’ “My dear Stephanie,” ho 1 j ««stt.lnli d “what would you hn\e<lonc?

Where would have l>ien thousoef putting out your poor little ef forts against niimt < t our literary and musical giants? Did you aspire to be a brilliant authorvaw like the ovkbntlcd Mrs. Vavasour, for instance?'' “Perhaps 1 did.” she nllowul, with an odd smile. “I was very ambitious In the days. 1 am still. I should Ilk«* to I greater even than Mrs Vavt ««ur. ’ The group ut the end of tbe room bad been broken up end Mrs. Callender came toward them.
