Dcntrlco wns nt Munich. Munlcli , that
city for Its tdz , porlmp ? , tbo mojt regal cap
ital In Europe. Munich , with Its f nlr streets ,
noble statues , palaces old and now , libraries ,
museums nrt frallorfos , ntul ftut fleeting
reputation for cheap living. Munich , which
stands boldly out on a barren plain , nc
doubt feeling it ha ? llltlo which It iisod IM
ashamed to show to the world , except per
haps tbo vagaries of the ccccntrio being , ill
klnfr.
Beatrice never qulto fcoaw what induced
her to choose the capital of Bavaria for hei
resting plncc. Honestly , when the wrotfl
from London to her uncles , she- had riot not
tied whither to end her wny. She mlghl
than just as llknly liavo gene to Paris , Brussels
sols , Vienna or Berlin n,3 to Munich.
She flsod on Germany for various reasons.
She had that fcollufj , which Justly or un
justly , Is common to most English people ,
that nn unprotected and not uuuttracUva
woman h moro free from nnnoynnco in a
Gorman than in a French town. She also
fancied she know the German language bet
tor tbau she know French. The sdontiflo
severity of the great Teutonic tongue hod
always charmed bur. She had studied it
deeply. Ebo could road it in it ) classi : foruia
with a certain amount of facility. She be
lieved , she could speak it well enough for the
purposes o < " ordinary conversation. Alasinha
was but oiio of the many who. when gut
tural's , compound words and divisible jtfir-
tlciples nro Hying about llko hail , find what
a fraud is the boasted phonotfc spelling , and
what an ago it takes to feel at one's ease
amid the olcphautiuo gambols of the un
wieldy language. Nevertheless , for tha
above and other reasons she chose Germany.
As the paily had loft Blacktown provided
with no traveling indispensable ? , except tha
most important of all , money , many pur
chases bad to bo mada in London. All were ,
however , made in time to catch the ovouing
train to Dover , and that night Bcatrico and
her charges crossed the channel. Then it
EcomsJ to her she was once inora able to
breatno. In London she had been haunted
by the dread that Horvoy would follow and
find ber. Once out of England she felt safe.
Bo it understood that Boatrica was not
flying from the shatno which n revelation ol
her foolish marriage and subsequent not oi '
deception vould entail ; although she would
willingly have paid a largo yearly sum , EO
long as her husband left her in peace and
kept the secret. Gladly would she have
inado some arrangement which would spare
her pride the mortification of her being
known us the wife of a felon. Gladly would
sbo have done nil In her power to save her
father , her uncles , and such friends as she
had , tbo paiu they must fool when all was
revealed. Yet it was not on this account
she fled. Her one aim was to save the child
from the man % i ho was his father.
She balioved lie could legally claim hci
boy. She know ho wns villain enough to
take him by force or fraud if the chance oc
curred. The moment ITarry was iu Ilorvoy's
hands she saw she would bo at his mercy.
She would bo forced to submit to any con
ditions , however exacting and humiliating ,
in order to regain posscosion of the ouo thing
which was lolt her , tha one thing she could
love , or was permitted to love. Flight gave
her a respite ; gave her time for considera
tion. It was the simplest and easiest way
out of the difficulty. So she decided upon it.
Ouco out of England they traveled by
easy stages , and eventually reached their
destination Munich. The city on inspsc-
ti6n Bcemod as suited as any other to Bea
trice's neoJs , so she hired o furnished flat ,
engaged a good-tempered , handy Bavarian
servant , and Bottled down to that quiet ,
calm life which she had iu her letters to the
Talberte described herself as living' .
Those letters were sent under cover to a
friend of Mrs. Miller's , who posted them in
London. As English stationery can bo pro
cured on the continent as easily as every
thing else that i ? English , tha letters con-
royod no information which could bo used
to discover the retreat. Beatrice dreaded
sending them ; she feared that some unfore
seen slip connected with them might dis
close her abode. But it sosmsd so unkind
lot to lot her uncles know she was alive and
ivoll. She did not write to her father. She
fancied her proceedings would not trouble
Jim much , and felt sure that any letter sent
o him would run the gauntlet of Lady
31au on's unkind comments. She trusted to
Toraco and Herbert to lot him know oil that
hey know.
Beatnc3 made few , if any , chance ac >
maintauco * . Some paoplo never do. Jusl
us there nro 111011ihom other man never
hink of asking for a cigav light , so arc there
romen to whom other women do not make
ho first advances. Baatrico , with her ro-
orvert but polite manner , classical features
.nd distinguished bearing , no doubt con-
eyed the idea that she was a state not to bo
ncroached upoa without the passport of an
utroductiou.
So for society she had her boy and her
aithful slave , Mrs. Millor.
However much n mother may love her :
hild , she is not blamed if she finds that his
onstant company does not give nil tha
leasuio tbo world can give. Howovoi
aithful and intelligent a servant may bo ,
lie mistress may with a clear conscience
x > k beyond her for a companion. S
So Beatrice' : ) lifo grew once 111010 dismal
nd coloiloss. So much so that under its
resent conditions the Into lifo at Hazlo
oed House , when contrasted with it ,
somedawild round of variety and dissipa- '

She had her books and her music , but she
nd no one with whom to discuss the books ,
a one to listen to her music. She took los-
ins in { tainting from one of the thousand tlS
rtists iu tbo great nrt center , Munich , but tlr
ds was but an aid to kill time , and uubro- r <
m with any ambitious aim. She had her
loughts. These she shunned as much as di

Jibing upon which she could look back al

Beatrice was sitting ono afternoon in the

Bcatrico smiled hopeless smllo.
"It t\fll bo It is written , " continued Mrs.
Millor. "Nothing can change It. God'j
arm Is not shortened , His purpose "
Beatrice checked her sternly. Slnco Sa
rah's outbreak In the train all signs of fan/
ntlcism lud been at once repressed by Bea
trice. "My letter is ready. " she said ; "tak
it and direct It to your friend. There aw
onvclopss. "
Sarah glanced at her mistress , who wai
once moro ilorp in thought. She took twi
envelopes and also n stray lialf sheet of note-
paper. Then she wont into another room ,
and hastily writing n few words on the
per. placed it in an envelope , addressed It ,
and inclosed It , with Beatrice's letter , in tki
packet which was to go to her friend hi
London.
Beatrice resumed hsr painful train o.
thousht. Writing homo had made her feel
utterly wretched. It wixs now May ; nearly
live months had she been living this dreary
life , anil keeping every ono in ignorance ate
to whore she was. How much longer mus
it go on ! She could , of course , Icavo Munich
whenever she thought fit , but every ethel
place would bo just ns dreary to hor. Local
ity matters llttlo wlion asea of trouble sur
rounds ono. Let a man count up bis hap
piest days and ho will flud the place Jo
which ho spent thorn contributed not muct
to their happiness. Beatrice , who was no\l
somewhere about twenty-three , had most
certainly n. right to expect coiro happy dayi
in this world.
She began to ask herself the questlom
which bad recently been framing thomselvel
iu her mind , Had she after all acted in tha
wisest wny ? Was her lifo to be quito marred
by that ono net of folly I If she t'-rned and
firmly grasped her nettle , would the stino
Lo fatal , or oven moro than she could bearl
She as , llko most o us , n blending of con
tradictions. She was wise and foolish ; bravt
and timid ; proud and humble , as pressure
of circumstances forced her to bo. She be
gan to loath this hiding , this shrinking Intc
corners. Could she nerve herself to comi
fortli and fnco the worst ?
What was tin worst ? The worst was hot
dread of losing her child. What if she wrote
to Horace and Herbert and told them every
thing , begged them to forgive the harinlost
deceit which she had practiced ; intrcatod
them to sco this man and make such tcnni
nsthoy could ? Might she not , wli u thoj
had nssuicd her security anil peace , fac
sucli scorn as tbo world would throw her ?
Then the began to wonder if Ilcrvey had
revealed the truth ? If her father , Lady
Clatuon hero she shuddered her unelei
know that she wns this man's wife. Al
though she had just been resolving to maka
it known to them , the thought of their being
In possession of the knowledge was horrible
'to ber. Yet all this while they might hav
known it might have heard it from Her-
voy's lips. This thought half maddened
her. She must learn if it was so.
She thought rccrctfully of that peaceful
lifo at Harlowood House. Horace and Her
bert's ' little womanish ways seemed part and
parcel of the pleasant home. She though !
of old Whittakor , of William Giles , of the
other sonants. She thought , nith a pang
of deeper rcgrot , of Sylvnnus Mordlc , whc
had oho found in her the woman ho could
lovo. She oven thought of young Purton'i ,
well-meant but unsophisticated advances.
Then , of course , she thought of Carruthera
thought of him moro than of all. ,
And Frank ? Did Frank know , and it so ,
what did .ho think of her ? Or , when ha :
know , what would ho think of her ? Did ho ,
would he , curse her very memory ? Ah , so
far as her love was concerned there could be
no hoi o for bettor days.
At this juncture Beatrice broke down , just
ns she had broken doun when she refused
Frank's love. She laid her head on the
table and sobbed bitterly. Sarah returning
from posting her letter found her so , and ol
course knelt beside her , cried with her , and
soothed her.
"I cannot live this Ufa ! " sobbed Beatrice.
"I cannot live it longer ! "

CHAPTER XXIX
TOE MADONNA. DI TKillT , r
ieatrico's letter , after having been pe-
wl and commented upon , by the Tolbarte ,
sent on to Frank Carruthers. A note " '
n Herbert wns inclosed with it. "i'ou "JV
will seo" ho wrote ' 'that tills letter is as
unsatisfactory as its predecessors. It clvca
us absolutely no information as to whore she
is or why slio left us. Now that wo nro
assured of her being well , and , wo suppoeo ,
safe , our feeling about her prolonged and
unexp'alned nbsoaea Is moro than regret It
is , In fact , serious annoyance. Wo find It
qulto a strain to answer inquiries about her
without contradicting ono another. "
Naturally the envelops which bore Her
bert's handwriting was the first opened by
Corruthoivi , and of course ho read Beatrice's
letter before bo rood Herbert's. Ho searched
tbo former in voln for hi * own name , llttlo
thinking how the writer had sat for a long
time before sbo could bring herself to wnl
her letter without sending lilm a crumb of
comfort. Ho then read Herbert's commen
tary and smiled faintly as ho drown ludicrous
plcturo of Horace and Herbert making
counter statements to their friends. Ho
mused n while , holding Beatrice's letter In
Ills hand. Her fingsra had touched that
Ehoot of paper ; so ho actually pressed it to
his lip ? , and iu doing so caught n faint lin
gering odor of what bo remembered was her
favorite perfume. It was clear that Mr.
Carrulhcrs' disonso was as rampant as over.
By and by bo turned to sea what else Fnto
had brought him , Nowadays Fate shoot *
many of her arrows from the general post-
office. Carruthers found among other letters -
tors ono addressed in n woman's handwrit
ing. It had been mit to Oxford and nt
Oxford redirected to London. Ho opened it
carelessly and found It contained a half
sliest of note paper , on which was wrlttcm
"Kcmombcr yonr promise , Walt , oh , bo
patient and wait ! "
Carruthors throw It nsldo with a bitter
smilo. Ho well know who was tbo writer.
Walt ! What was there to wait for ? How
ever , the sight of tho'o words brought back
the memory of that strange nocturnal visit ;
of the woman's earnest , even impassioned
appeal to him , to "wait five , ten , twenty
years for the ono bo loved. " Why should
she write now and repeat the appeal ? Show
w ho know everything ; show ho had accom
panied Beatrice and who was probably with
her now.
Ho could neb got the memory of that
Btrongo creature uith her dreary belief , yet
unswerving faith na to his own future , from
his mind. At the time the womau'scaiuost-
ness had impressed him more than ho cared
to confess. Superstition is n quality to the
possession of which no man of our time Is
willing to own , not oven to himself. Yet
nine men out of ten nro superstitious.
Carruthera told himself that such hope as
lie had gathered from Mrs. Miller's words
was simply gathered because ho boliovoJ her
to bo hi Beatrice's
confidence. Hero ho was
wrong. It was the woman's broad but ab
solute assertion , uttered with the passionate
Inspiration of a prophetess of old , thathappl-
ao-s in this world awaited him and Beatrice ,
tvhich had bseu of aid to him iu his trouble.
If faith can move stubborn mountains , why
lot a heart which is willing enough to tnovo
Ji a particular direction ?
And now this woman repeated her mes
sage , and , as Carruthers read tbo letter , told
aim his case was no moro hopeless than it
ii ns months ago.
Ho took the note which ho had crumpled
jp and tossed away ; ho spread it out and
-cad it again. Ho found , moreover , that it
vns written on paper similar to that used by
Beatrice , and upon turning it over ho saw
> n tbo back a few words in pencil. They
voro written so faintly that he had to carry
ho uoto to a strong light in order to do
iphor them.
The words were "Madonna di Tempi , "
md to the best of his belief , as experts tay
vhon giving evidence , the handwriting was
3oatrico's.
What did the words moan , and how far
vould they aid him in finding Beatricol
losoon settled in his mind that "Madonna
li Tempi" must bo the name of a picture.
3ut what picture ? . Where was it to bo
ound ?
Of course , it did not follow that supposing
10 could ascertain all about this picture ,
vbich might or might not bo n , world- :
amod one , that ho would find Baatrico near
t. Nevertheless , the clew was worth fol-
owlng. Ho would have followed a finer
low than this to tbo end of tha world oa
he chance of its leading him to Beatrice.
o ho at once sot about the task of getting
oformation ; if information could bo got ,
cspecting n picture called iho "Madonna di
? empi. " Ho hoped , ' but his hopes were neb
cry stiong. Indeed , ho could not help
omparing his cose to that of the fair Sara-
en's , who found her lever by the aid of two
rords. Yet she was better off than bo was.
iho at least had the name of a place for ona
f her talisma-iic words. Ho had the name
f what ho supposed to bo a picture ; noth-
2g more.
Mr. Carruthera was not ono of the inner
irclo of art worshippers. His sallet , his
.unn i < nd ilrang , his emotional days , were
roll over tcforo the era of blue and white
hina. Ho had no rhapsodies , written or
soken , to nriso hereafter and prick his con-
: ience. Ho hod not bowed his knco to the
iteoso , nor sacrificed on the altar of the in-
omprehensible. Ho was fond of pictures as
ictures , and was bold enough to say he
ked what ho did like and that ho disliked
hat ho did dislike , Hence it will be at once
sen that his opinion was worth nothing tc
ny ono except himself.
Having found the knowledge not indls-
Jensable , ho could not , like many men , chock
iff on his fingers the principal production !
if the grand old masters and name the pot
if earth on which eaei ono could bo found.
Jut like the man who , when challenged to
Ight , replied , "I can't fight myself , but J
iavo a little friend Mho can , " and forthwith
truck down his challenger with n short ,
tout poker , Mr. Carrntlicrs , if ho did not
now these things himself , had a friend who
J10W.
This friend was a Mr. Burnett , arecog-
ized art authority.
Flunk found Mr , Burnott at his rooms ,
writing critiques on the recently opened
xhibltions most likely.
"Do you know any plcturo called tbo 'Ma-

CHAPTER XXX.
THE TUUTH AT LAST.
Corruthers reached Munich late at night.
Ho went straight to that comfortable botot
the "Four Saasons , and , feeling that the
hour was too late to begin his researches ,
supped and went to bod. In spite of his o *
citouiciit nt the thought of being in the same
town ns Beatrice , lie slept soundly. Man Is
but mortal , and after traveling as fast as Is
possible from London to Munich , it tokes n
grcnt deal to spoil a night's rest. So iu the
morning Cnrruthors arosa refreshed and
eager to begin the quest.
But how to bogtu il ? Ho was not even
sure that ita object was in Munich. Because
she had written down the ntuuo of n plcturo
it did not follow she woa ucor that work of
art. She might only have paid Munich a
flying visit might now bo mlloa and mlles
away. Ho grow very despondent ns ho
realized the slender , fragile nature of the
clew which ho bed so impetuously taken up
and followed. Nevertheless , ho vowed ho
would not Icavo Munich until ho felt sure it
did neb harbor tbo fugitives.
Ho stepped through the swlnglpg doors ot
hla hotel and stood tn the broad Mail-
mllllans-Strasso. Ho hoitatod , uncertain
what to do , which way to turn. So far na
ho could sec , his only chntico of fiudlng
Beatrice was meeting her in the
public streets ; his only plan wns to
walk about these streets until ho mob
her. At any rate bo would do nothing but
this for the next few days. . If unsuccessful
ho would then tuiuk whether lie could apply
to such persons as might bo able to tell him
what strangers were living iu Munich.
Ho turned to the right , went across the
Platz , and into the fair Ludwig-Stiasso. Ho
walked on with palaces on cither baud until
ho came to the gate of victory. Preoccupied
as Mr. Camithcrs was , the number of mag >
uificcnt buildings bo passed greatly impressed /
pressed him. However , ho deferred his ad
miration until hnpplor times.
A kind of superstition made htm think it
well to sco the picture \\hich bad brought
him so far. Ho inquired the way to the Old
Pinakothok , and upon anivnig there sought
for and found the ' 'Madonnadi Tempi. " Ho
stood for n long Umo contemplating it , not
becaucoho so much admired it as iu the hope
that fnlo might bring Beatrice to his side.
She did not come , so ho bade the "Madonna"
adieu , and after having run quickly through
the largo rooms and cabinets in the hope of
encountering Beatric ? , ha loft the huilding
wishing that the living niasterpicco ho
sought was as easy to find as that of tha
dead artist
Keeping to what seemed the principal and
mast populous streets ho found himself onca
moro m front of his hotel. Ho started off in
an opposite direction , wont do n the broad
Moximlllians-Strasso. Moro palaces , moro
Etatuos , but no Beatrice. At last ho stood
on the stone bridge which spans the shallow
but rapid Isar. Ho stopped and looked at
the curious artificial bad of smooth planks
aver which the river runs ; and then ho
looked down into the little triangular pleas
ure garden which lies between the two arms
3f the stream.
In the garden , on ono of the seats , intent
ly engaged with n book , sab Beatrice. Her
little boy was playing near her. It needed
sot the sight of the boy to assure Carruthen
So was not mistaken. Like all lovers , hex
x > ld himself he would bavo known that
raceful head , that j Tfect form at least a
iiilo anaj' . Yes , there .vas Beatricol The
'Madomm" bad not led him astray. Had
Sarruthers been a Boman Catholic ho might
mvo shown bis gratitude by tha expenditure
af pounds and pounds of wax candles.
Ho stoo-l for some time watching Beatrice.
Jfow that ho had found her ho trembled at
lis own act. Ho trembled at the thought of
rtb'at ho had to say to her , what shu had to
ay to him. Ho comforted himself by the
issuranco that ho hod only sought her ,
irokcu through her concealment , for tha
sake of givinsr , or at least offering , such help
ns ho could give.
After this ho walked slowly down to the
garden and stood in front of her. She raised
her eyes and know him. Her book fell t
the ground. She Sprang to her foot and ut
tered a little cry , a cry that sounded very
sweet to Mr. Carruthors , as it was unmis
takably ono of pleasure. .At the unexpected
appearance of tbo man EUO loved , for a mo
ment there wns no thought In her heart sav
that of joy. She stretched out her hands.
Frank ! Frank ! " she cried. "You hero ? "
Frank ! Frank ! " sJte cricil. " You Jicref t
Ho took her hands In his and regardless 01
ystandors gazed into her gray oyos. For a
lament lie could not speak. The sight o I
catrlco , the touch of her hand sent tin
lood rushing tuiough his veins. Days , ni
ooltF , months , ho hod pictured this meet la in
ijf , and now it had ccma to passl J0 |
Bho Has fairer than over fairer than
orl The pure classical features Bocraed
en moro perfect , the clear polo fnco moro
lautiful , the dark gray eyes more wonder-
1 tlmn of old. And , ns she had given that
; tlo cry of Joy , something had leapt into .
T oyo.3 which Carritthers had never before
en there , or never before seen so clearly
id undl'gulsodly. The surprise of seeing
in had swept away caution , and for the
nee of two seconds , Frank , was able to
ad the very secret of her soul.
No wonder ho hold her hands and gazed
cntly in her face. What had ho to say
iat could ho say ? The certainty that &ha
red him jnado hli task no easier the task c
telling her that ho knew her eocrot , or at
ust u. great part of it the task of asking C !
r to nonfljo in him and lot him help her. clan
ho remained silent until she gently drew bl an i 1 i
r hands from his. nt
L'ho light had fadoJ from Beatrice's face. Oni
o also , after a moment of forgetfulness ,
s coming back to her own world and Ita
lubles. Her eyes dropped nnd her face
tided.
