That brought to my mind what I had
almost forgotten the woman whom my
Imprudent curiosity had brought Into
pursuit of her. 1 felt ready to curse my
/oily nlouil , as I did In my heart , for
having gone to Messrs. Scott and Brown.
"OliTin , " I wild , "there Is a woman in
Guernsey who him some clue to you -
But ; I could sny no mine , for 1 thought
ha would hnve fallen to the ground in
her terror. I drew her hand through my
arm nnd hastened to reassure her.
"No harm cnn come to you , " I contin
ued , ' "whilst Tnrdlf and I are here to pro
tect yon. Do not frighten yourself * we
will defend you from every danger. "
"Martin , " she whispered nil 1 l" °
pleasnnt familiarity of my nnme spokm
by her gave me a sharp pang , almost ot
gladness ' "mi one can belli me or de
fend me. The law would compel me to
* o back to him. A woman's lie in ninj
be broken without the law being broken.
I cbuld prove nothing that would Rive
me a right to lie freenothing. . So I
took it into my own hands. 1 tell you I ,
would rather hayo been drowned this
a'fternoon. Why did yon save me ? "
I did not unsSvor , except by pressing
her hand against mj side. I hurried her
on silently towards thu cottage , She
wns shivering In licr.cold , wet dress , nnd
trembling with fear. It was plain to me
that even her line health should not be
trilled with , and I loved her too tcndcrl } ,
her poor , shivering , trembling frame , to
let her suffer If I could help It. When
wo reached the foldynrd gate , 1 stopped I
her for a moment to .speak only a lew
words.
"Go hi , " 1 said , "and change every one
of your wet clothes. 1 will see you again ,
once again , when we cnn talk \\Mtn one
another calmly. ( ! od bless and tnku cure
of you , my darling ! "
Shu smllud faintly , and laid her linnil
in mine.
"You forgive mu ? " she said.
"Forgive you ! " I repeated , kissing the
moll brown hand llngcringly ; " 1 lute
nothing to forgive. "
She went on across the little fold.
Then I made my way , blind and deaf , to
the edge of the cliff , seeing nothing , hear
ing'nothing. I Hung myself down on the
turf , with my fnco to the ground , to
hide my eyes from the staring light of
thu sumniur sun.
Married ? That was wlint she had said.
It shut out nil hupi ! for the future. She
must linvo been a more child four yn.irs
ago ; she. looked very young and girlish
till. Ami her husband treated her ill
oiy Olivia , for whom I had given up nil
I bad to give. She said the law would
compel her to return to him , nnd 1 < ould
do nothing. 1 could not Interfere eun
to save her from a life which was worse
to her than death.
My heart was Caught in a vice , and
tlioro wns no escape trom the torture ot
its relentless grip. Whichever way 1
looked tiioro was sorrow and despair.
1 wished , with a faint-henrtcdness I hnd
never felt before , that Olivln and 1 hnd

without moving. My head was at her

of lier dress ,
"Martin. " she said iicain. "see , I have
brought you Tardif's coat In place of
your own. You must not lie here in this
wny. Captain Oarey's yacht Is waiting
for yon below. "
I Htaggeroil giddily when I stood on my
foot , nnd only Olivia's look of pain stead-
led i ° . Site had been weeping bitterly.
I could not trust myself to look in her
face ngain. Tardir was standing behind
her , regarding us both with great con
cern.

OHAPTKH XVI.
My mother passed a restless nnd ngl
tilted night , and 1 , who sat up with her
wn& compelled to listen to all her la
mentations. Hut towards the moraint ,
she fell Into a heavy sleep , likely to las
for fa'omu hours. 1 could leave her b
perfect security ; and nt an early hour
weut down to Julia's house , strung ill
to bear the worst , nnd Intending to have
it all out with her , and put her on he
cunrd before she paid her dally visit to
our house. She must have some hours
for her excitement and rejoicing to bub
bio over , before she came to talk abou
It to my mother.
"I wisii to MO Miss Dobreo , " I said to
the girl who quickly answered my uoisj
peal of the house bell.
"Please , sir , " was her reply , "she nud
Miss Daltrey are gone to Sark with Cap
tulu Carey. "
"Gone to Sark ! " I repeated in utte
nmzcmont.
"Yes , Dr. Martin. They started quite
early because of the tide , and Captain
Carey's man brought the carriage to tnlco
them to Sf..Sampson's. I don't look fo
them back before evening. "
"When did they make up tholr mind
to go to Hark ? " I Inquired anxlpnsly.
"Only late last night , sir , " she answer
ed.
ed.Why
Why were .Itillii nnd Kato Daltrey gone
to Surk ? What could they hnve to do
with Olivia ? It mndo me almost will
with nnger to think of thorn finding
Olivia , nnd talking to her perhaps of m <
> nd my love questioning her , arguing
with her , , tormenting her ! The bare
thought of Ihosu two badgering my Olivia
was eniiiffrlt t6' drive me frantic.
vln"the-coo ! twilight , Julia and Kat
Daltroy wore announced. I was about
to withdraw from my mother's room , in
conformity with the etiquette cstabljsifed
amongst us , when Jiillit recalled me In
a gentler voice than -she had used to
wards me since the day of my fatal con
fession ,
"Stay , Martin , " she said ; "wh.it no
hnve to tell concerns you more thnti any
one. "
1 I M\ \ down agnin by my m.ithcr's sofa ,
nnd she took my hand between both her
I own , fondling It in the dusk.
"It IH nbout Olivln , " I snld In ns cool
n tone ns 1 could roiiitniiiid.
"Yes , " answered Julia ; "we have seen
her , nnd wo hnve found out why she
1ms refused you. She is married al
' "
ready. " -
"She told me so yesterday , " 1 replied.
"Told you so yesterday ! " rcp.-nted Ju-
iln In an accent of chagrin. "If we had
only known that we might hnve saved
ourselves the passage across to Sar ! ; . "
"My dear Julia. " exclaimed my iiiojhcr.
I feverishly , "do HI us all about it. and
\ | begin nt the beginning. "
There was nothing Julin liked so mudi ,
I or could do so well , us to give a clrciun-
I stnntlnl account of anything she had
done. She could relate minute detnl's
with so much accuracy that when one
was In7y or unoccupied it wns plonnnnt
to listen , My mo her enjolcd. with nil
the delight of n woman , the small touches
by which Julia embellished her stele-lies.
I resigned myself to hearing a long his
tory , when I was burn ug to nsk one or
two questions nnd hnve done with the
topic.
"To begin .nt the beginning , then , " snid
Julia , "dear Citptnln Carey came into
own very lute last night to tall , to ns
ihout Martin , nnd how the girl in S.irU
mil refused him. I wns very much as-1
nuislied , very muih Indeed ! Captain
unroy said that he nnd dear Johanna
mil come to the conclusion th.it the ga-1
felt some delicacy , perhaps , because of
Martin's engagement to me.'o talked
It over as friends , and thought of you ,
dear aunt , and your grief nnd disappoint
ment , till all nt once 1 mnde up my mind
in n moment. ' 1 will go over to Sark nnd
see the girl myself , ' 1 said. 'Will jou ? '
said Captain Carey. 'Oh , no , Julia , it
will bo too much for you. ' 'It would liavo
%
been n few weeks ago , ' I s.iid ; Mint now '
1 could do anything to give aunt Dolirce
n moment's happiness. ' "
"Heaven bless you , Julin , " 1 interrupt
ed , going across to her and kissing 1 or
cheek impetuously.
"There , don't stop mesMartin , " > c-
said earnestly. "So it was arranged i i.
hand that Captain Carey should send
for ns to St. Sampson's tills morning ,
and take us over to Sar. We had a
splendid passage , Kato w.is In raptures
with the landing place , and the lovely
lane le.ullng up Into the Island , "We turn
ed down the nearest way to Tardif's.
Well , you know that hroyvn pool in the
lane leading to the Havre Gosselin ? Just
there , whui'o there are some low , weatb-
or-boaten tveos meeting overhead nul
making a long green nlslc , wo saw all in
n moment a slim , erect , very young-look
ing girl coming towards us. I knew In
an Instant that it was Miss Ollivier. "
She paused for n minute. How plainly
I could see the picture ! The arching
trees , nnd the sunbeams playing fondly
with her shining golden hair ! 1 held my
brenth to listen.
"What completely startled me , " said
Julia , "was that Kate suddenly darted
forward and ran to meet her , crying.
' ' "
'Olivia !
"How does she know her ? " I exclaim
ed.
"Hush , Martin ! Don't Interrupt me.
The girl went so deadly pale , I thought
she was going to faint , but she did not.
She stood for a minute looking at us ,
and then she hurst into the most dread
ful fit of crying ! I have always thought
her name wns Ollivier , and so did Kate.
Tor pity's sake , ' said the girl , 'if jou
have any pity , leave mo hero in peace do
not betray me'
"Rut what doea It all mean ? " asked
my mother , whilst I paced to nnd fro In
the dim room , scarcely able to control
my Impatience , jet afraid to question
Julia too eagerly.
"I can tell you , " said Kato Daltrey
In her cold , deliberate tones ; "sho U the
wife of my half-brother , Hlchard Foster ,
who married her more than four years
ago In Melbourne ; and she ran away from
him lat October , and has not been heard
of since.1 i > .f t i
"Then yauJnovr her whole hisj'ory , " I
sild , Approaching her nnd pausing be
fore hitf , "Are you at liberty to tell It
to ui ? " - '
"Certainly , " she answered ; "it Is no
secret. Her father was a wealthy col-
olili t , and lip died when nlu > wan fifteen ,

mitted by hpr tru'ilceo ; nor can Olivia
clnlni it without limiting herself known
to him. It Is nrcnmulnting there , while
both of them are oil the verge of pov-
ortj. " i
"But he must have been vcrj' cruel to
her before liu would run awnyl" said
my mother in a pitiful voice.
"Cruel ! " repeated Ivnte Daltroy. "Well ,
Ihc-ro-nrp many Uind.s of cruelty. I do
not snppono lUfhurd would over trans
gress the limits of the liiw. But Olivia
was one of those girls who cuu suffer

sensitive , romantic child , with as much

"But there must he some protection for
her from the law , " I said , thinking of the
bold , coarse woman , no doubt hh asso
ciate , who wns In pursuit of Olivia. "She
might sue for a judicial .separation , at
the least , if not a divorce. "
"I am < iuite sure nothing could he

she answered. "He Is very wary and

traduced n woman as her companion , lie

My dread of the woman mto whose
hands my imbecile curiosity had put tin-
cine was growing greater every minute.
It seemed as If Olivia could not be safe
now , day or night ; yet what protection
could I or Tnrdlf give to her ?
"Yon will not betray her ? " I mild to
Kate Daltrey , though feeling all the time
that I could not trust her in the hinalU-st
degree.
"I have promised dear Julia that , " she
answered.
it became my duty to keep n strict
watch over the woman who had come to
Guernsey to find Olivln. If possible 1
must decoy her away from the lowly
uest where my helpless bird was shel
tered. She had not sent for mo again ,
but I called upon her the next morning
professionally , and stayed some time
talking with her. But nothing resulted
from the visit beyond the assurance that
she had not yet made any progr&ss to
wards the discovery ot my secret.
Neither did I feel quite snfo about
Kate Daltrey. She gave mo the impres
sion of being as crafty and cunning as
she described her half-brother. Did she
know this woman by sight ? That was a
question I could not answer. There was
another question hanging upon It. If
ulie saw her , would she not in some way
contrive to give her n sufficient hint , without -
out positively breaking her promise to
Julia ? ' Kato Daltroy's name did not
appear in the newspapers among the Hat

Why I.ocoinotlvp Arc Numbered.
A prominent railroad man tells me
that the old . -ustom of naming engines
Instead of numbering them was done
away with because there was such ti
pressure brought to bear in favor of

various Influences used became PO an
noying to-the ofllclals that they decided
to adopt the plan of numbering the loco
motives , which wns done. A similar
nuisance exists at Washington lu the

more with people who wanted vessels
named in honor of somebody or some
thing than he was will/ all the other
questions which came before him puf
