THE INFIDEL: LECTURER. i The strange revulsion of feeling which came over Kit at the "Orra Man's, Words, the new Sighs shed back upon past, his mother's warnings, the half-understood taunts of school mates, his own vague nings, all combined to compel belief.

Be- sides, 'there was somethin, elte, o reverberating string in Kit's heart which told him the man spoke the truth. "I will go," he said, brokenly. "I will ' go home. Come, Mary!" - And the girl, with that sense of bound up: with occasions which more than anything dominates women, turned away from the door of the Elysium and walked southward with Kit without a word. The "Orra Man" did not follow them. He stood still on the steps from which he had spoken to them, the garish lights shin- ing steadily down on his pale face and ragged attire. it and Mary were just vanishing can our as Local Correspondents, NA ANAEe NIE NsERII ase etassetitittRsbieseReeY [into the darkness when Dick Bisset came to the door. He peered up and > CHAPTER XLIII--(Cont'd.) They had moved out now, and Kit, looking down the narrow hall which formed the private entrance to Spon- ton's, saw Mary Bisset standing near the door as if meditating flight. As soon as she saw Kit, she made a slight | sture as if to go to him. But seeing Biss Clifford's hand on his arm she stopped suddenly, and somewhat ostentatiously resumed her conversa- tion with her brother's friend, Mr. Marmaduke Styles. "Now go," said Miss Clifford, giv- ing him a little imperious push; "do as 1 tell youl" Somewhat unceremoniously Kit took possession of Mary, ousting Mr. Styles without apology, and they were on the doorstep and going down the steps _ before he knew it. The Elysium was quite near to. Sponton's, and as t nigh was fine the party had elected to walk to the boxes Which had been re- "served for them. Mary was very silent, though she suffered Kit to take her hand and put it on his sleeve. But there was now no warmth in the pressure, "Mary," said Kit, as soon as they were out of hearing of their compan- ions, "do you think we should go with the others to this place? Would your headmaster like to hear it?" "I am not responsible to him for where I go. Nor to you either, Mr. &ennedy," said Mary, with consider- able asperity, "I am with my brother." Kit wondered what was the matter, 'but had not the tact to find out with- out asking. "I think you should let me take you home," he said, lamely enough. - Mary instantly removed her -hand from his arm, and turned to look for Dick. "You are at liberty to go and find that girl with the dyed hair if you like," sha e~id. with a pretty spitetul- ness. "I will accompany my brother." "Why, what's the matter, Mary?" ied Dick Bisset, wha was coming "along after them. ~""What's-tHish-- 4 Kennedy. wants to go home!. Oh, non- --gense;-of eourse not--unless you would rather. Well, make up your own minds." And he passed on with Miss Vioiet Clifford upon his arm. As the latter went by she cast a look backward at Kit over her shoulder which happily Mary did not intercept.

There came a ring at the If#fle tinkling bell and presently Mrs. Bisset, who had been busied in the kitchen with the preparation of supper, ushered in a visitor, ; It was Mr. Catheart, Mary Bisset's leadmaster. At the sound of his voice Mary her- se came forward with somewhat heightened color. kn Co eo was a tallish, dark; official-look- ing man, with a formal manner and a rather melancholy address, as if the respongibility of so many ghildren had taken all the youth and boyishness out of him. » 2 "Why, Miss Bisset, then Jor did not go to the hospital after all!" he said at the 'sight of her, "No," said Mary, a little breath'ess- ly, "I knew nothing about it till Dick told me, and then after all he was called elsewhere!" i Kit somehow 1elt a strange, angr resentment against this man begin to sted} over him. He noted jealously the flush on Mary's cheek when she spoke to him, and he did not under- stand that she was trying to preserve the balance between truth and the reputation of a brother like Dick.
