A detd seemed to mock him with the whispered sneer that were Oliver to die hi* own grler would not be long lived. Then in re volt against that voice of an egoism SO loathsome that in his better m" m+ntn it inspired *ven himself with horror. h«- bethought him of Oliver a unvarying, unwavering affection: he pondered all the loving care and kinfl ne-.« Mint through these years past Oliver had even showered upon him: i„d he cursed the rottenness of a mind that could even adroit ^urh thoughts as those which he had been entertaining. So wrought upon was he by the welter of his emotions by that fierce strifle between his con science and his egotism, that he' came abruptly to his feet, a cry upon his lips. . "Vade retro, Sathanaa! Old Nicholas, looking up abruptly, saw the lad's face waxen, his brow bedewed with sweat. ■ Master Lionel! Master Lionel, he cr.ed. his small bright eyes concerned ly scanning his young master s race. “What be amiss?" Lionel mopped his brow; Oliver has gone to Arwenack upon a punitive business," said he. “An’ what be that, tur?" quoth N“Helahas gone to punish Sir John for having maligned him. h A grin spread upon the weath r beaten countenance of Nicholas. “Be that so? Marry, t were time. Sir John he be over long i tn Lionel stood amazed at the man s easy confidence and supreme assur ■Hire of how his master must acquit hii Nicholas. . .." He did not add or what. But the servant underatood, and his grin grew broader still. "Fear? Lackaday! I batn t afeeard for Oliver, and doan't ee be afeeard. Sir Oliver ’ll be home to sup with a sharp-set appetite— 't is the only dif ference fighting ever made to he." The servant was Justified of his confidence by the events, ^hougii through a slight error of judgment Sir Oliver did not quite accomplish all that he promised and intended. In anger, and when he deemed that he had been affronted, he was—as his chronicler never wearies of insisting, and as you shall judge before the end of this tale is reached—of a tigerish ruthlessness. He rode to Arwenack fully resolved to kill his calumniator. Nothing less would satisfy him. Ar rived at that fine embattled castle of the Killlgrews which commanded the entrance to the estuary of the Fal. and from whose crenels the country might he surveyed as far as the Lizard. 15 miles away, he found Peter Oodolphin there before him: and be cause of Peter s presence Sir Oliver was more deliberate and formal In his accusation of Sir John than he had intf-ndeit. He desired, in accusing Sir John, also to clear himself in the eyes of Rosamunds brother, to make the latter realize how entirely odious were the calumnies which Sir John had' permitted himself, and bow basely prompted. i hey found a secluded corner of the deer pork for their business, and there Sir John—a slim, sallow gentleman of some 30 years of age—made an on slaught with sword and dagger upon Sir Oliver, full worthy of the on slaught he had made earlier with his tongue. But his Impetuosity availed him less than nothing. Sir Oliver was come there with a certain pur pose. and it was his way that he never failed to carry through a thing to which he set his hand. In three minutes it was all over and Sir Oliver was carfully wiping his blade, vhilst Sir John lay coughing upon the turf tended by white-faced Peter Godolphln and a scared groom who had been bidden thither to make up the necessary tale of witnesses. Sir Oliver sheathed his weapons and resumed his coat then came to stand over his fallen foe. considering him critically. "I think I have silenced him for a little time only.” he said. “And I confess that 1 intended to do better. I hope, however, that the lesson will suffice and that he will lie no more —at least concerning me." "Do you mock a fallen man?” was Master Godolphin's angry protest. "God forbid! ' said Sir Oliver sober ly. "There Is no mockery in my heart. There is. believe me. nothing hut regret—regret that I should not have done the thing more thoroughly. I will send assistance from the house as I go. Give you good day. Master Peter.” From Arwenack he rode round hv Penrvn on his homeward way. But he did not go straight home. He paused at the gate of Godolphln Court, which stood above Trefusis Point com manding the \ iew of Carrlck Roads. He turned In under the old gateway and drew up in the courtyard. Heap ing to the kidney stones that paved it. he announced himself a visitor to Mistress Rosamund. lie found her in her bower—a light, turreted chamber of the mansion's eastern side, with windows that looked out upon the lovely sheet of water and the wooded slope* bcyotnl She There'* at Least One in Every Office _^ | ——>— --— - MO - • fJ£^£-p *•» To Ch6a Ma*'CAC iHOuJS, pftCFCR.

"Aye. there's the rub. Well, I've all but killed him." Hhe drew back Into her chair, re coiling before him, and he saw horror leap to her eyes and blench her fair. He made haste to explain the cau-'1 •hat had led ^o this: he told h«. ■ briefly of the^ealumnies concerning him that Sir John had put sbout to vent his spite at having been thwa ed in the matter of his coveted licem ». to build at Hmithick. "That mattered little,” he conclude "I knew these tales concerning n,“ were abroad, and I held them in the same contempt as I hold their utterc;.

He smiled "Do you suppbse that I could harm him. He is your brother, and. so. sacred to me. He cams to tel! res that no betrothal was possible be tween us, forbade me ever again to visit Godolphin Court, dubbed me pirate and vampire to my face and reviled mv father's memory.

"That you may hear ti e tale from me before another comes to malign me with false stories of th:* happening." (To Be Conttnned Tomorrow > .---' New York --Day by Day. V* By O. O. McINTTRE. New Tork. April 8—The middle aged women who flock to the after noon tea dansant* with swaggering young escorts are interesting studies. They have » regal, glacial manner despite the commonness of their flirt;,'"' peccadillos. Most of them are obviously rich and they have the disillusioned ga::-» of those to whom all things are van ity. Their gowns are from the finewt shops. The telltale marks of long sleee with the beauty parlors are notice able. « They appear tremendously bored with the prattle of the sleek young Berties who sit across from them. These* are the plnkv-panned young men who are always one of the metro politan mysteries. They live in hall bedrooms, but they appear well-to-do. They play a good game of tennis or golf, dress in the latest fashion, and yet they never work. Even the women who tolerate them to fritte away an hour or so tedium would never think of inviting them to the.r homes. There is no effort not to be seen by friends. The women have the var nished perfection and the untouchable independence of the rich—and whs1 others think has no effect. In the:: own set, at least, they are held blame less. Mostly thlr marriage have been those of endurance. Only money made them tolerable. Their huaband* leave their downtown offices and go to the club for bridge and the Scotch and soda. They are as likely ns not to live at the club for a week with out going home. So the wives, perhaps tired of the tediousness of social gadding, seek companionship of the frivolous young men who exchange their companion ship for the privilege of not paying the check. The tea table Bertie is the las- word in etiquet. They tell of one who when he was a private at Camp Mills _ asked to fall out of drill because he had a trade last for the colonel.
