As, however, I shall have to recount yet
another carriage journey, under yet more
surprising circumstances, I do not mean
to linger upon the details of this. Let It
suffice that I saw my sister duly and legally
married to Mr. Rupert Glendonwyn,
younger, of Castle Oower, by a minister of
the Kirk of Scotland, at that time acting
chaplain to the regiment of kilted foot
quartered at Dumfern. And, In addition, I
had Kate back again at Boatcroft before
19 o'clock that night. As to the place
where the ceremony took place, since there
Will be abundant opportunity for descrip
tion of It hereafter in the course of my
narrative, I need not particularize it now.
It was called the House of the Corse of
Slakes.
CHAPTER XVIII.
Lucifer, Sun of the Momlnsr.
The months that followed upon Kate's
clandestine marriage were not happy ones.
There seemed some evil power upon my
dear girl. She was not herself either in
the bouse, nor yet long happy out of It.
And then there were such constant con
cealments and endeavors to hide their
meetings that I was more than once at
tar wits' end, and wished heartily that I
had never meddled in other folks' business,
but, as the old folks say, had let them
"gang their aln gate."
Yet at this time I do believe that Mr.
Rupert was minded to do that which was
right, so far as he knew 1L And when
the time appeared ripe for the telling of
his father (which happened In a very few
months) John being in a fair way to finish
hia course and be Inducted into his living
and other circumstances concurring Mr.
Rupert Glendonwyn, without much pres
sure, agreed to reveal all to Mr. Glendon
wyn. As may be anticipated, It was I who
brought the matter to a head. For I, bad
gone to the trystlng place at the mauso
leum with Kate the night before and wrung
the promise from him at the point of the
bayonet In these days it was only by
threatening to go straight to my father
that I could keep a hold upon Kate and
her husband. So all the next day I was in
a great taking at school, anxious to get
home and bear how the Laird of Castle
Oower had taken the news of his son's
new relationship. Once over the bridge on
my way home, I hurried fast along the road
and was not more than halt way when,
at the turn of the wood, I met Kate hasten
ing toward the river with a face like death
for whiteness.
I ran to my sister and caught her by
the arm, but she scarce minded me, mut
tering all the while to herself, "He wishes
to get rid of me he does not love me
any more!"
So I did what I could speaking hard
and sharp to her, and making her turn
and come back with me which, after a
moment's struggle, the poor girl did will
ingly enough. It was. Indeed, wonderful
to see how she who before had been so
brave and gay was broken down in mind In
a few months though not In body, for
she seemed to grow more ethereally beauti
ful every day.
It waa not the first night of hor trouble
that I could get from Kate what Mr. Ru
pert had said, and, Indeed, even then It
was only the threat of my father going
straight up to Castle Gower would make
her tell me. It waa In the long run the
saving of us (so far, that is, as things
were saved) that Kate, after she bad lost
faith in all else, believed that I, her sister,
would do the thing I said. Moreover, how
God favored and strengthened me for all
these trials I, who bad never faoed a sorrow
of my own In my lite, appears more and
mors wonderful to me.
So far as I could learn what Rupert
had really said (for every word had to
be drawn from Kate as with a corkscrew).
It was to the effect that his father would
never, under' any circumstances, acknowl
edge the marriage. He would fight It to
the end. Matters were as bad as they
could he, ft seemed. Rupert was ruined
It it were known that Kate was his wife.
His father would disinherit him would not
give him a pansy. Not only Mr. Rupert
would be a bankrupt, but Gregory also.
Worse than all, both of them, for some
thing they had put their bands to in con
nection with trust money, might find them
selves In prison on a serious charge.
- This last It was that set my poor girt
to the wildest talk of killing herself In
order that she might never "be a drag
and curse upon Rupert." She had only
brought blm sorrow (so she said over and
over again), while he bad given her all
the happiness she had ever known. She
was his. and he might make a stepping
store of her body so that he would be
happy. 8he lived only for blm and so on
and so on till It gave me a headache to
listen to her besides making me cross. I
love John well and well enough, but I
know what Is good for a man to be told and
the leas a man hears of such talk the bet
ter. He will grow to believe it In time, and
from believing It Is but a step to trading

upon it (Signed) Falrlle Glendeonlog her
opinion.
Oh, but it was a weary thne! Every
night I had to go and wait by the ede
of the wood, bearing the voices of nusband
and wife within he trying to persuade
her to something and she refusing more
and more weakly. Then one night I
marched boldly in and faced my gentle
man. He sat there with Kate's head on
his shoulder, talking low In ber ear. His
hand was about her certelnly, but In a
careless way. But, as I am a Christian
woman, he would disengage It In order to
solace himself with a cigarette or a tune
upon his flute, without disturbing her head,
which lay lax and pale upon his shoul-
der. I could not have believed such chill
Insensibility of any man where a girl like
Kate was concerned.
Mr. Rupert heard me coming, but he
never moved only took the cigarette from
his lips and waved me to a seat.
"Always pleased to see you, made
mo'selle," he said; "pray do not conceive
that you are Intruding at all!"
"I do not so conceive," I said, stamping
my toot for In those days and where my
sister waa concerned I could rw a perfect
vixen, "and If you think so, Mr. Rupert
Glendonwyn, I do not care. There Is your
wife what are you going to do with her?
The time has come for owning or disowning
her. Which Is it to be?"
"Favor us with your advice," said Mr.
Rupert, with the greatest coolness, not a
whit put out indeed, that he never was
with me whatever I said to him. "I should
value your opinion above all things. There
Is a somewhat sharp little dilemma facing
us. If I own her as my wife I am ruined!
If I do not she is!"
"Well, then." said I, "you are a brave
man all men are brave let the ruin be
yours! Surely you do not hesitate?"
"No," be said, thoughtfully, "for myself,
I do not think I would hesitate. I do not
think I would greatly mind being what the
world calls ruined. But there are two who
would for me."
"And who may they ber I cried, furious
with anger at his dallying.
"Not you. my dear, pretty little sister
Falrlle!" he said, "and let me tell you
your temper becomes yon excessively. It
Is a pity that poor John will neither know
how to evoks it nor yet how to appreciate
tt when it is provoked. I can do both I"
But I did not heed bis persiflage.
"Who are the two whom you must con
sider at all hazards?" I demanded.
"My wife and my father," be said. "Kate,
you would not have me ruined, would yon?
No, I thought not. And my father he has
made the greatest sacrifice one man can
.make for another. He has committed a
crime tor my sake. I cannot leave him
to bear the penalty alone I"
"Well, then, having thrs mighty regard
for your father," I cried, "I wish to know
what you mean to do with your wife. Surely
you do not mean her to bear what you
call tho penalty alone?"
"I must see my father first," he said.
"I have given him a pledge not to do any
thing without consulting htm. I will have
an answer tor you tomorrow, mademoi
selle." "If you had begun that practice sooner,"
I retorted bitterly, "my sister would not
have been where she Is today!" But when
the morrow came there was no handsome
Rupert at the trystlng stone, and Kate,
after waiting two hours, came home and
sought me, frantic with tears.

"He is dead he Is deaav she cried.
know that he Is dead. He has never missed
before no, nor once disappointed me," she
cried. "What shall I do, Falrlle? Oh, tell
me, what I shall dot"
It struck me that we had better go back
to the tryst at the mausoleum, which had
been the lovers' meeting place almost from
the first. But Kate would not accompany
me. She declared that she could not bear
the place when he was not there.
Bo It chanced that the first news came to
me. I was skirting rapidly round the high
crumbling wall to get at the little secret
passage by the hollow tree, when I saw,
emerging from a field path that crosses the
policies of Oower to a point on the high
road a mile or two further on, a little
squarely built oldish man In a gray suit,
wearing a little round hat. He had that
look of spruce self-conscious humility
which marks the domestics of the great la
plain clothes.
He stopped a little uncertainly on see
ing me, touched his hat and came forward.
"May I ask are you Miss Glendennlng?"
he said, with grave politeness.
I told him the truth. I was Miss Glen
dennlng that Is, t have been since the 18th
of January, the day when Kate and I bad
made a little excursion together. But I
knew that probably I was not the person
be wished to see. However, he took his
hat In his hand and delivered his message
with an air of the utmost respect.
"Then I am sorry to Inform you on the
part of Mr. Rupert Glendonwyn that be
has had a rather unfortunate accident,
which will prevent him waiting upon you
today. But he has sent me to make bis
excuses. It is an Injury to his leg not
serious, hs bids me say, but only Just suffi
ciently painful to keep him laid up for a
week or two!"
Each day thereafter I met the man In
gray at the trystlng place and obtained the
lateet messages and generally a letter also
from the sick man. These last were writ
ten In pencil on stray scraps of psper, with
the Isck of epistolary pomp and circum
stance proper to a man writing hurriedly
from a alck room.
To Kate these notelets were inconceivably
precious. She slept with them clasped In
her band, and waking In the night I could
hear her sobbing and kissing them, doubt
less praying, too, for the writer. But at
the end of the second week there came a
pause. On two successive days I went to
the tree, and twlcs I was disappointed. I
was compelled to Invent messages snd sx
planatlona to pacify Kate.
On the third day, to my great terror,
Kate suddenly announced ber intention
of accompanying me and herself question
ing the butler. We set out, and lo! there
by the entrance of the mausoleum with the
key of the great gate In hia hand was Mr.
Gregory Glendonwyn himself, looking as
grand and as majestic as ha was wont to
appear to us every 8abbath day, sitting
in the great Muare pew with the Glen
donwyn arms t axing In gold upon the
paneia at the back, and behind his head
the banner which Randolph Glendonwyn,
third and last viscount, bad carried over
the hills and far away to fight for the
pretender In the '15.
At sight of us Mr. Glendonwyn took off
bis hat In the grand maner In which he
did everything.
He appeared to know us perfectly snd to
be sble to distinguish one from the other
without difficulty. I could feel Kate's
ankles failing her, snd the drag upon
my arms grew almost more than I could
bear.
"For God's sake, Kate," I whispered, "do
not be overcome. Show how brave you can
be for Rupert's sake!"
"I will be brave for Rupert," she said,
"he shall not be ashamed for me."
And, Indeed, he bad no need.
For In a moment the pride seemed to
come bark Into her carriage, the haughty
look Into her eyes. I think it was because
she felt herself Instinctively In the pres
ence of her arch enemy.
With every outward semblsnce of po
liteness Mr. Glendonwyn opened the great
gate for us the gate I had never seen un
locked since I was a child, and we used
to cross the furrows to rattle the padlock
and run away, thinking ourselves all the
while the bravest of the brave.
"Will you be pleased to enter T" he said.
"I have something to say to you which had
better be said in aa much privacy as pos
sible." As soon as he bad arrived at the front
of the mausoleum Mr. Glendonwyn turned
about upon us, and In quite a different
manner demanded, "Which of you claims
to be my son's wife?"
I was about to speak, when Kate, with
a new fire In her eye, or rather a fashing
out of the old fire, replied, "I do not claim
to be I am!"
Ah," he said, thoughtfully, "It Is well
that you do not claim the rank, at any rate
I presume that you have no desire to ruin
my son your your husband?"
It cost those proud Hps something to get
mat word out.
"No," said Kate. "I would die rather."
The laird of Gower looked at her with a
chill gray eye Infinitely keen and piercing.
i was giaa men mat John s eyes were
bine. He was like his mother.
"If that be so," he said, "you may the
more readily subscribe to the plan that
I am commissioned to put before you. The
need for concealment Is only for a time,
I am under the necessity of paying a large
sum of money st an early date which
could not obtain If it were known that you
were Rupert Glendonwyn's wife. He must
marry money, or at least have the reputa
tlon of being about to do so. I understand
that my son has Informed you how serious
are the circumstances, and what ruin and
disgrace would be the consequence If we
were unable to raise and refund the money
which I used to pay for Rupert's extrava
gances. I have no personal interest in the
matter except to promote the best Inter
ests of my heir which this unfortunate
business has seriously compromised."
He pauaed a little, and as Kate did not
reply (Indeed I much doubt If she under
stood completely) he proceeded In the same
frigidly legal tone.
"There is then in the present condition
of affairs, as my son has put them before
you, and as I now repeat, no alternative
but that you should obey your husband's
summons and withdraw yourself from ths
world for a time."
"I am ready now take me to him!" cried
Kate earnestly.
The old man, taken somewhat aback at
her eagreness, put out his hand to stay her,
"No," he said; "there are many things
to ds inougnt or ana arranged. First, you
must not go to Castle Gower. That would
be fatal. Indeed. I will send you word the
retreat we have decided upon, and when
we shall go thither. Do not be afraid. You
will be well looked after, I promise you
that."
"And Rupert Is to be with me?" said
Kate, looking up at Gregory Glendonwyn
with such syes so full of the dreamy base
of self-abnegation and devotion that they
would have melted any heart of flesh that
ever beat In ths bosom of man. But alas!
it waa a heart of stone our poor girl had
to deal with at least. In all that concerned
her Interests.
"Yes," he said, smiling: "doubtless Ru
pert will Join you, so soon aa bis broken
ankle la cured. Of course, he cannot be
there all the time. He will have to come
and go."
Then to see the glow of Joy and gladsome
peace overspread the sweet face of my
sister!
'I thank you. sir." she said In a voice
murmurous, like the cooing oi a aove, i
will kiss your hsnd for giving ms my hus
band back to me."
She took the passive hand of Gregory
Glendonwyn and lifted it reverently to lips
Into which the rose color had come flooding
back.
But If her lips bad been those of a toad
or an adder Mr. Glendonwyn could not have
manifested more anxiety to disengage him
self. "I will communicate with you," be said.
more coldly than before, "rest assured that
the beet Interests of both yourself sad
Rupert will be considered In every way."
He lifted bla hat, bowed us out of the la-
closure snd the last we saw of him be was
locking up the great Iron door and striding
away across the fields toward his Castle ot
Gower, his hands clasped behind bla back
and bla face bent toward the ground.
Kats could hardly eat or sleep. She
skipped as she went, snd even on the way
to the kirk In the evening she move!
lightly ss to a dancing measure.
But upon one thing I bad set my mind
like Iron. If it were only to be as they said
a separation for a time a temporary se
questration, owing to ber state of health
and family circumstances, all the more
reason that Kate must not be allowed to go
alone. John Glendonwyn knew nothing of
the matter. I bad sworn not to reveal It,
either to my father or to him. I mis
trusted all the othera concerned. I would
not have given a nameless cur Into such
hands to Rupert to Surgeon Warner or to
Gregory Glendonwyn of the cold, gray and
Impenetrable eye.
No, I had this fixed In my mind. It
might be necessary for Kate to go away tor
a time, and. Indeed, even I saw no other
way out of It. But I should go, too. And
to that end I began with what care and
secrecy I could muster to prepare for the
Journey. I had put together some clothes
and necessities a book or two, without
which I would have been lost. Indeed. Also
I swore Kate not on any account to be per
suaded to depart without telling me. And
I knew she would keep her promise, not
only because I made her swear to do so by
her love for Rupert, but because I myself
took an oath that It she did not I should
have my father and brothers on her track
within an hour.
Finally all these things drew to a climax
on the afternoon of a certain rhtll-blowtng
day, when the square-set man In gray
brought me a note to my school room.
"The carriage will be waiting at t o'clock.
Walk out along the Drumfern road till you
meet It. The driver will have a blue
ribbon knot on his whip and the same about
bis hat. He will stop when you hold up
your left hand. It will be best not to wait
for F's return from school. After that
trust all to me."
I studied It carefully, the hum of the
children growing louder about me as
knit my brows over the curt, surprising
sentences. I dismissed the pupils with
out a hymn, hurried on my cloak, and.
holding the letter in my hand, I came
rapidly to a number of conclusions, most
of which were afterward verified by ex
perlence. First, I Judged that the letter
was written by Rupert Glendonwyn, but
to the dictation of his father. The hand
writing showed the first; the care and pre
cision of statement the second. Next It
had been Intended that my sister should
be smuggled away without my knowledge.
but Kate, true to her promise, and In spite
of the hint conveyed In the letter Itself
had sent It to me not being able to trust
herself to write.
Thirdly, fourthly and hundredthly, I had
no time to lose.
I was still studying the document when
the wind came and snatched It from my
fingers. I ran my best to recover It, but
the wind being high, in a moment tt was
sailing high among the chimneys and gables
ot the academy. I was thus compelled
to 'abandon It and hurry as fast aa I could
out over the bridge and along the Drum
fern road. Kate, I knew, would st the
same moment be coming toward me along
another Bide of a triangle. We would meet
at the apex that Is, the carriage, where
but one of us was expected.
At last, being clear of the houses and
In great fear that I would get there too
late after all, I took to running as hard
as I could. Thank God, there was the
carriage! I could see It waiting the driver,
a tall man in a blue pilot coat and muffled
to the eyes, was sitting on the box. The
carriage was empty, but' there, not 200
yards away, was Kate coming along the
roadside toward me. She scarcely looked
at me, she did not speak at all
but threw a parcel she carried under
her great cloak Into the carriage and sank
down, fainting, on the cushions.
The door closed of Itself but with roe in'
side. I heard the wheels grind on ths
macadam as I turned to restore my sister
And so long was I In succeeding that the
swift-coming darkness of a stormy night
was fast settling down when I again looked
out. Bleak dykes, the snow still lying be
hind them in the unsunned places, closed
us in on either hand. We were out on a
wild moor, going I knew not whither.
CHAPTER XIX.
Into a New World.
I had need of all my boasted coolness In
the face of difficult circumstances that
night and the next day.
All I could make out was Just that we
were making our way rapidly Into the less
frequented westerly parts of the country,
But all the while we passed no lighted
bouse, trees waxed fewer and fewer and
soon ceased altogether.
Had I not known that we were in this
safeguarded land ot Scotland with judges
and tribunals. Christian kirks and gospel
ministers, I might have thought that we
were being driven to our doom by the emis
saries ot some secret conspiracy.
As for Kate, she slept like a top. The
thought that at last ahe waa going to meet
her husband to be with him always (ss
she supposed) acted on her like wine. She
lay most ot the night sleeping peacefully
with ber head on my shoulder. Once she
kissed me lightly on the neck and mur
mured a few contented little love-worda in
my ear to me now infinitely pathetic to be
remembered.
I cave coma alnce to understand many
things which then were dark to me.
The whole journey bad been carefully ar
ranged beforehand. The relays were for
warded to one place, past which we drove
two or three times during the course ot the
night, making a circuit and returning for
the purpose of making us believe ourselves
far away and cut off by immense distances
from our friends.
Toward the end I also grew weary, and,
I think, must have slept a considerable
time. For when I awakened the carriage
bad stopped and I was stiff with the cold
I touched Kate on the arm, lightly at first.
but as she still slumbered on I bad perforce
to shake her before I could waken her.
Her first words were, "Where Is Rupert?'
Without replying I opened the carriage
door and stepped out awkwardly, being
numb with long traveling. Pay was break
ing and showed a strange scene of desola
tion, more lit, as It aeemed to me, to be a
landscape In Iceland, Lapland or Siberia,
or aome of those northern countries I hsve
read about, than a part of that Scotland in
which I knew we must still be.
There was one hut and no more upon the
dismal beach a mere rough shelter (as It
seemed) for fishermen or smugglers. The
bare keel and ribs of a boat rose blackly
out of the sludge, and near It, at the bot
tom of the widest of theae trenches (In
which there was still a little runnel of
water), I could see the figure of a man
busy with a boat at a kind of rude pier.
The horses bad been removed from ths car
riage and we could see them in silhouette
in a kind ot shelter behind ths hut, tossing
their heads and moving uneasily la ths
cold wind.
"I do not see Rupert," said Kate, sftsr
sbs had looked all round the disconsolate
scene, shivering slightly all the while,
"surely this cannot be the place to which
they are taking us!"
Follow me and we will aooa find out,"
I said, briskly. For the eternal cuckoo cry
of 'Rupert' set me on edge sometimes, es
pecially so early In ths morning, and, as It
were, break fasllesa.
But aa we began to walk briskly along
the Irregular path the man who had been
occupied with the boat espied us, and, leav
ing his work, came up to meet ue. As ws
came nearer we recognised him.
It was Mr. Glendonwyn himself.

EVILS OF TIGHT CLOTHING.

Hut, like the shoe and the glove. In Its use the corset has beed much
abused. AVhat should be used merely to plve the waist line a trim appear
ance, often Is drawn so tight that displacement of tho female organs rcMilts,
and causes the woman untold ngony. Everyone has lu her lift of acou;ilnt
ances some one whose wasp-like waist waa the pride of ber young woman
hood. I know such n person who, when she was going to theater or recep
tion, would draw hcr'corsot even a little tighter. Uy and by she began to
have pains lu the side, which seemed almost unbearable. They came at llrst
at theHe evening affairs, when she should huve been enjoying herscir; but by
and by the pains were always there even when she did not don the corset at
all. She had brought on female trouble by her recklessness, an Illness that
kept her In misery much of the time. She tiuiilly weut to the hospital, and
there the nurse told me It was an actual fct tbat the various femluine or
gans had taken an unnatural and deformed shape as the result of tight lac
ing. Hearing-down pains and dullness, from which so many women suffer, are
often the result of wearing clothing that Is too tight.
Of course, every young woman who laces too tight reallies sooner or later
that her pnlns ure the result of the tIBht clothing, and she loosens It, and
then wonders why her pain doesn't cease. She doesn't understand that the
displacement of the female organism l "t a trouble that will cure Itself.
By and by she says she cannot see that wearing her clothes loosely helps
her any, and she tries to wear them tlfiht once more, but cauuot do so. Often
Inflammation has set In and enlarged the organs, and tho slim flgure that
was once ber pride Is no more. The whole trouble is that the woman does not
know that the mere loosening of the clothing will uot cure the trouble
caused by wearing clothes too tight.
When a woman finds sho Is beginning to have pains In ber side, when she
gets dizzy from causes she does not understand, when the bearing-down pains
are so frequent she hardly seems able to walk, let her take Lydla K. l'iuk
ham'a Vegetable Compound. It is the only thing that will help ber. There la
no use In her going to the doctor, lie baa no eyuiputhy with a woman who,
through not understanding, has brought these troubles upon herseir. Half
the time he doesn't believe lu them, a"l put a woman off with something
thnt may give her temporary relief, but will be of no lasting help. Hut Mrs.
Pinkham has made a study of this matter for years, and her medicine is Just
the thing that Is needed to restore the nerves to a healthy condition, reliev
ing and healing the Inflammation.
Women suffering from feminine troubles always have a desire to wear un
necessarily loose clothing. They think It will relieve the pain. They do
not stop to consider that removing the pressure will not cure. The female
troubles get no better, and day after day a little of that trim look, ao essen
tial to a woman's best appeurance, Is lost
The woman who cauuot stand It unless her clothes are so loose she birely
feels them, may make up her mind that ber feminine organs need immediato
attention. Lydia E. Flnkhain's Vegetable Compound will put ber in a normal
condition, and as a result the flgure will resume its naturul proportions. If
every woman would take Mrs. rinkham's medicine when her side or back
aches, or when she has an uncomfortable, bloated feeling, we would bavo
fewer slouchy, middle-aged women, who, as they say, cannot stand moderately
tight clothing. Instead of wearing clothes that are looser and more slovenly
