Lucene.
MRS. BLOUNT possessed the
feminine trait of curiosity.
She made a davdlingr ronnd
of the roon, scrutinizing ev
ery detail of its arrangement. At the
rerv last h cam? to the little table,
tmvara wiiun .narcTv una rinncea to
nte the shimmer of Hue lirlit. By in
stinct her eyes w ent straight to the ring
en the Instant of ter approach. As
she beheld the lusters o& the jewel her
handsome face suddenly flamed witli
greetl. and she uttered an e jaculation
of d'liht. For lor.r se-conds she con
templated the glittcrins bauble with
rapture, bending her face tver closer
and closer as under a sjelL Then, in a
Fiidden realization of her avaricious
thought, she staitrd guiltl'.r, and ieer
jed about the room witti furtive
plances, to make sure that none spied
upon her. Again, she studied the stone
w ith a sensuous ecstasy in its prismed
brilliance; ngahi, hhe tore her eyes
from its charm, and now the moved
from it in resolute tffort to escape
teu'ptation. Kut the old habit of life
dragged her back to the table, and she
put forth a covetous hand, seized the
iir;;r. carried it to her bosom, smiling.
Hut very soon her mwd veered.
The smile vanished from her full lips.
Her expression became that of poign
ant grief. By slow degrees the hand
that held the riug moved from her
breast, reached to the take, set the
jewel back in its place. It was at this
moment that Andrew re-ertered. At
sizht of him Mrs. K.ount realized with
a shudder how narrow had been the
margin of her escapo from detection in
the very act of tbeft. She pointed to
ward the little table and spke with a
catch in her voice:
"Andrew, just loo at whit yon left
on that table there. It's a good thing
there haven't been any strangers in
the house with that lying around
looe."
Andrew crossed to the table and j
picked up the ring- There was a faint
smile on his closely set lips a3 he turn
ed and went to the woman. lie extend
ed the ring with a slight bow.
"ilrs. Riount." he said pleasantly,
"allow me." Andrew nodded assent as
be dropped the ring iuto lier itching
pnlm. "Only a word of counsel," he
said. "Remember that who I am and
what my exact intentions iaay be are
of no interest to yon. So te careful."
Ilaving thus admonished ber he left
her alone to her happiness.
And Mrs. Blonnt, watching the lux
urious play of the- varicolored rays
from the diamond, murmured content
edly in the softest r,otes of her throaty
voice:
Gee! It sure pays to be honest."
The servant soon announced to An
drew the arrival of Miss Blount and
was directed to show the young lady
into the library as .soon as she should
be ready for an interview.
Andrew descended to the library with
an eagerness of expectancy that was
almost disconcerting to himself. He

ready stationed in the har. to main
tain the privacy of the lilva-y, to bring
Walter on hearing the tnL And at
last a delicate rustling of draperies
sounded at the door, and Lucene en
tered. The girl stopped short at sight of the
man, arrested for a momont by the
stress of rmotion. Ko lea?t trnee of
Msgglo Flint, nursemaid and convict,
remained risible in the poised loveli
ness of this gentle maiden. The prom
ise of her beauty had been most nobly
fulfilled. She was of dain'y fairness,
with a golden crown of locl3 like corn
silk in the Fun. as lustrom, as finely
spun. The exquisite feattres, set in
the nrfect oval of the face, were pearl
pure of coloring save where the biooa
tint blushed in cheeks anl deepened
winsomely in lips.
At hi3 smile Lucene came to him
swiftly.
"Oh, at last!" she exclaimed.
His smile grew as he spoke:
"You're not going to le It nesome for
France, are you, Lucene?"
"Indeed, no!" vas the Joyous an
swer, given with a half disdainful pout
of the red liis. "I was happy enough
there. TJr.t. after all, it wasn't Ameri
cait vrcsn't home."
Now, since her first strong emotion
et the meeting vras past, Lucene was
constrained to astonishment over some-

thing strange and" unexpected in the
appearance of the man before her.
"Why, Mr. Andrew," she said, with
some show of confusion over her own
temerity, "how odd you look! What Is
It? Oh, yes, of conxsei It's your

clofnea. What can it mean? Tell me,
please."
At the request the smile vanished
from the face of the Master Mind.
"Patience, patience!" he admonished.
"Ton shall know all about everything
presently, but not quite yet. It isn't
necessary now."
Then he continued:
"Tell me, instead, has our little girl
left her heart in Paris. or has she
brought it back Intact?" Though he
put the questloa Utfiy, it was of
import to him In his scheme of venge
ance. "Oh. neither the one or the other,"
Lucene declared, with a mone of re
sentment against the idea. "1 left my
heart here, sir. when I went away.
You should know that, for I told you
all about my one very meager romance,
which can never come to anything, of
course."
"Never is a long time," Andrew sug
gested drily, aware of the intricacies
he had set in motion by his mechanism
for the coercing of destiny. "So, then,
you have actually remained faithful
to the old memory all this long time?"
"Does it surprise you?" She became
grave. "I think that I have that vir
tuefaithfulness," 6he said, hesitat
ingly. "It's only an ideal, perhaps,
but" 6he was violently aroused by
Andrew's next words:
"I fancy," b said deliberately, "that
I'm going to surprise you a bit. Ton
shall see him soon."
The girl started, and her eyes sought
those of the speaker in amazed ques
tioning. "Oh, Mr. Andrew 1 Ton can't mean
you can't mean"
"Yes," the man said with quiet em
phasis, "I do mean just what I have
said. Yon shall see that Ideal of yours
very soon- That I promise you, my
dear girL Yes, you are to meet the
one that owes his life to yon, . yet
doesn't even know your name. And
you are to meet him speedily too."
Lucene's eyes were like stars now,
shimmering with the gusty joy of her
heart, and her lips wreathed to a smile
of delight.
"Oh, when?" she cried. "Oh, tell me
when! It can't be true. - It's too won
derful to be true. Is he quite well?"
"Quite."
"When they took him away in the
ambulance," she continued pensively,
"I was sure that he must die, in spite
of what I had tried to do for him."
"And so he would have died," An
drew said gravely, "but for you."
"I did do the right thiny, didn't IV

"Yes," Andrew agreed. "You did the
only thing that could have saved him.
But tell me, if yon please, how did
yon ever learn to make a tourniquet?"
"Why, as to that," came the ready
reply, "I'd seen pictures of them In
those 'first aid things on a placard in
a train, and I studied them until I un
derstood the principle just because I
had nothing else to do at the time.
And then." a tremor, was in her voice
at the memory, "when he was thrown
from the automobile right there at my
feet almost and lay bleeding so dread
fully, then somehow I remembered."
"And yon never forgot him," the
man exclaimed, betrayed Into open ex-
pression of his wonder over this light
ning welding of hearts. "And you
never forgot," he repeated aoftly, with
a half envious note in his voice. "You
never forgot, though neither of yon
even so much as knew the other's
name."
The suggestion in his words quick
ened the girl's cariosity.
"Oh." she begged, "who is he?"
Andrew regarded her quizzically.
"It was a small chance, a mighty
small one, that yon two should ever
meet again, the little, friendless waif
of the city and the brilliant man of
the world. Yet so It was to be. Yes;
it was for this purpose that I took the
house here. For this same purpose I
have created a family for you, Lucene,
to take the place of the one yoa lost
when you were a mere child. I have
provided for yon a father, a mother, a
brother. Even I have made for you a
blameless past a past that will stand
all the scrutiny it is ever likely to re
ceive and more."
Nevertheless the girl, even In the
face of these astonishing revelations,
held her chief Interest on that ideal
around which had clustered the dear
est reveries of her heart through the
years. So now 6he made no comment,
only:
"Does he remember me?"
"Much more than that," Andrew as
serted briskly. "He has tried again
and again to find yon. Since my hav
ing you in charge it has been, of
course, impossible for him to learn
anything of you. But now the time
has come to reveal you."
The girl's face darkened a little.
"Oh," she cried, grieved, "why didn't
you let him find me, when yta knew
that I?" Her voice broke piteously.
"In order, first, to educate and train
you, so that there could be no ques
tion as to your fitness, your standing
as a woman of refinement and breed
ing; and, secondly, to gain time for
the blotting out of a past which,
though you yourself were absolutely
innocent, would have forever kept you
apart from him."
The girl acquiesced by silence In
the justice of her guardian's reason
ing. "And you really really do know
him?" she questioned.
"At least I have seen him, and I
know that be exists right here in this
very city just now," Andrew replied,
smiling again.
"Oh! And don't you, too, admire
him ever so much?"
Fortunately for the girl's peace of
mind she did not see the nnlovely
hardening of the man's face. But his
Felf control was strong.
"Why, once he unknowingly render
id me a great service, and I well, I
t esira to return it In kind "
"You mean, without letting him
know?" In her eagerness the girl
looked np into Andrew's face.
"Yes," came the glib explanation.
"Yoa see, Lucene, that's what these
old clothes of mine mean. Yon will
please remember that for the present
I am merely Andrew Watkins, your
brother's valet and confidential man."
"Oh, Mr. Andrew," she objected with
some embarrassment, "don't you see
that you're asking me to deceive him?"
"My deer littla girl," he declared
gently, "I am only doing my. best to
give you a fair chance of happiness."
The Master Mind walked away from
his ward to where the call button was
set in the wall. He pushed it to notify
Farker that it was time for Walters
presence in the library.
Walter came into the room with curi
osity writ large on his boyish face.
Andrew addressed the girl suavely.
"Permit me, Lncene, to introduce to
you your brother, Mr. Walter Blount."
Walter strode forward and heartily
shook the hand she reluctantly yielded
to his proffered clasp.
"How do yon do. Luce?" he exclaim
ed, with a brotherly familiarity highly
distasteful to her.
Andrew frowned as he watched the
irv Intimacv of manner assumed br
Halter. He again touched the beiTcaU
and spoke to Lucene.
"Parker will take you to Mrs. Blount,"
he said.
The girl went rather hastily out of
the room.
The face of Andrew was forbidding
at he spoke to Walter.
"You perceive," he said sharply,
"that this young lady is not of your
class. You must understand that thor
oughly, and you must remember it, air.
Never presume."
The thief scowled heavily.
Andrew continued:
"When Wainwright comes and the
conversation begins, yoa must bear in
mind my written directions for your
guidance." He went close to the door
into the halL "Now, If I stand in the
position corresponding to this in the
drawing room, then, according to your
Instructions, in my memorandum for
you, what form of conversation must J
yon adopt?"
. Walter answered with the alert con
fidence of a schoolboy, sure that ids
lesson has been well conned:
"The lonely stranger gag."
Andrew moved to the end of the li
brary table and paused there.
"And if I stand by the large table
there?" be demanded.
