L_, _;-_A,__ ““1121: can a. fellow do when hard necessity ties one to it?” “Beastly, poky little hole, Ashdown," said Mr. Crofts one evening. as he and Frank were Indulging in a. cigar- ette in the balcony of a. house where they had happened to meet. “Dul- xm'ns'ter is bad enough in all con- science. but this place is a dozen times worse.” It was just. about this time that he made the acquaintance of a. young fel- low of his own age of the name of Crofts, who was in business with his father as a. solicitor at Dulminster. Mr. Crofts was engaged to an Ash- down young lady, and used to go over two or three times a week to see her. and enjoy himself generally at this My, or the other dance. ’W-hen Mr. Avison gave Frank plain- 1y to understand he must turn over a fresh leaf. and cease frequenting the illiard-room of the “Crown and Cush- ion." and suchlike places. he at the same time intimated to him that for some time past his movements after oflice hours had been watched by a person who had been employed for that purpose. and it was the fear lest this secret spy might still be similar- ly engaged that kept his footsteps so straight from that time forward. He had insensibly got into the habit of spending so many of his spare hours in the billiard-room that he was at a loss how to get through his evenings with satisfaction to himself now that he no longer dared be seen there. No“ that his fortunes at the Bank were rising so rapidly. he began to have plenty of invitations to the houses of well-to do people. where he met a suf- flciency of pleasant society of both sexes. but where everything was conâ€" ‘ ducted with an amount of propriety ‘ and decorum which to Frank became at times absolutely depressing. He hated negus and sandwiches. and havâ€" ing to invent polite nothings for the benefit or a pack of scandal-loving dowagers. He hated having to daneo his pipe was dear to him. and already be had a. taste for cold grog, which in the course of time might develop into a. confirmed habit. Thus it will be readily understood that to Frank Dela ison. life of late had seemed a some- what tame affair. But a respite is a. respite 3.11 the world over, and Frank's was one of those mercurial natures which, while they are easily depressed. are just as easily elated. and have no inclination to meet trouble halt way. He wished old Mrs. Dixon no harm; still, if her illness should prove to be a. lingering one any profession of sorrow on his pas-i would be the merest hypocrisy. "Mildred is a. sensible young woman. and knows what. is expected of her." was the only reply vouchsafed him. “You never seem to take into ac- count the fact that Mildred might not care to accept my humble and un- worthy self as a. partner for life,” ne said, with a. quizzical smile, to his mother. But there came a. reprieve for him domst at the last moment. A couple or days before Miss Dixon was due to arrive, Mrs. Derison received a. note from her in which she stated that, ow- ing to her mother having been sud- denly attacked with illness, her visit would have to be deferred. Frank's spirits rose as it by magie. ____ "Her visit is only put of! for a little while," said Mrs, Derison coldly. as she refolded the note after reading it aloud. Nothing is altered." to' 'tiéir dliargé as the stepping-stone to something larger still. He was as fully assured as if his mother had told him in so many words, that his max-- ridge with Miss Dixon was looked upon as a necessary condition, and that. unless he acceded to it, .he need look for no further advancement at the Bank. The price demanded was a. heavy one, or so it seemed to him. He knew fully a dozen girls. any one of whom (his Lingering love (or Hermia. notwithstanding) he would willingly bane married even with half of £20,000 for a. dow.ry But \Iildred Dixon, with her six years seniority, her freckles. he_r spegtacles. and he:- squat figure!

He raised his hat, mude a. more pro- found bow than ever he had made in his life. and then turning on his heel. fie strode slowly back towards the ouse "Yes, I am aware of n," he said, with the desparate calmness of a man who finds himself in a. pOSition from WhiCh he sees no escape; “I have known it from the first. But I am a. moral COW‘ ard, Miss Winter-ton. and the conse- quences of telling the world what I knew would have been so grievous to me and mine that I had not the cour- age to avow the truth. You are right. I had no justification m speaking to you as I did. I can only crave your forgiveness for my offence, and assure you that you need have no fear of a repetition of it. Had the ground opened at Edward Hazeldine's feet he could not have been more startled and astounded. He knew not what to say. where to look. what to do. Had his carefully-guard- ed secret, which he had flattered him- self was known but to four people, or, at the outside. to five, become puDuc property ? It not, how had Miss \Vin‘ terton become possessed of it ? But these were vain questions. and what he had now to cOnsider was the an- swer it behaved him to give to Miss Winterton. A moment later he had made up his mind. There should be no more doubleâ€"dealing. or fencing with the truth on his part; he had suffer ed enough from that sort or thing al- ready. Wife "Before you say a word more. Mr. Hazeldine. permit me to ask you one question." she said. speaking with perb feet quietude and without a trace or irritation or annoyance. “Are you. or are you not. aware that your father was not murdered, m everyone was led to believe. but that. in point of fact. he put an end to his own existence? Because if you are aware of it. do you think. taking 3.11 the circum- stances of the case into consideration. that. as an honorable man. you are justified in asking me to become your u.» .... Miss Winterton gave him her hand with a smile. but seemed so entirely unembarrassai that he could not flat- ter himself with the idea. that she had the least suspicion as to the nature of the errand which had caused him to seek her out. That. however, in no- wise served to turn him from his pur- pose: and after a little talk on ordin- ary topics which helped, as it were. to break the ice between them. he plung- ed at once into the subject which just then was paramount with him. He began his declaration in manly it some~ what commonplace terms. but had not proceeded far before the stream of his eloquence was arrested by Miss Winterton placing one of her hands on his sleeve with a gesture which he could not mistake. a. chance of securing a quarter of an hour alone with her before dinner. but not much likelihood of being able to do so later on. A servant directed him and he found her in the terrace gar- den. They had not met for nearly four months. Now that Edward Hazeldine, urged thereto by his brother, had .resolved. as far as in him lay. to annul the act of wrongdoing to which he had unwil- lingly lent himself: now that an in- tolerable burden had been lifted off his life and his self respect had in some measure come back to him. he resolv- ed, at the earliest opportunity. to can? out his longvcherished intention of proposing to Miss Winterton. By this time the family at Seahamhpodgqyege back from Torquay, but now-ant am not feel that he should be Justified in going over there specially and asking for an interview with Miss W'interton. He must wait till he was invited by his Lordship, and then make his op- portunity as best he could. As it fell out he had not long to wait. The Earl wanted to see him on business mat- ters, but being laid up with gout. could not leave home. consequently Edward must go to the lodge. It was further intimated to him that her ladyship would be pleased for him to stay and dine. Hm {ng finished his business with the Earl in good time. Edward went in search of Miss Winterton.

But ajthoggh ne lost ed 100 were in progress in the next room. Accord-mgly his cue was left to languish on the wall. and he turned his attention wholly to that other board of green cloth which for him was by far the more seductive or the tWO.

To be continued ) It has adopted an exceptional method of encouraging Qecial conditions of trade with Canada. even at the risk or sacrificing the interests of a much larger commerce with Uta-many, where resent- ment will be excited and some means of retaliation devised. The total volume of trade between Canada and the United Kingdom is only onethird of the aggre- gate trade between Great Britain and Germany. Since the Cobden Club has sanctioned this renunciation of the most favored nation treaties the Government have entered upon a policy of encourag- ing preferential tanfis, and have seized the opportunity for making an impor- tant concession to Canada. The most favored nation treaties, \vhich have al- ways been regarded as a logical sequel to free trade, are new doomed. and the fair tradera' contention that the tariff could be made a useful lever for open- ing new markets has been formally ap- proved. The Jubibe was not outside the route at nractical politics, after all.

Mr. Harold Frederic says In his spe- cial to The Times: The notion of hit- ting Germany in any way. espvcially in a tradq- way, is too pleasing to the Inglish public not to be immensely popular. and this result or what is here called the Imperial instinct or Canada is wolmmcd almost With more enghu- sinsm than the paper gift or an Airman war vessel. “Our rolépsc from German " is a typical cannon over the Lou on com- mgxfixts 39-day, The chief practical efl‘ect of cancelling the treaty will be the lapsiug or the most favored nation clause in all the agree- ments between the two countries.
