I wnpone I have. 1 ws t.red. I won t be a minute," . . Mie began to brush her ruffled luir, and Netu at down on the aide of the bed and watched her kilenily.' After a moment, "Pat's come to tia." the Mid. he was. not slow to ce tlie swift tolor that rushed to fctuabeth's face, and her eyes fell. "Oh, has he?" laid Elirabeth, rather breathlessly. , "Yes; to fix things up with you. He's been to see jour aunt." Klizabrth swung around aghast. , 'Really! Oh! Are you sure?", "Yes; but he'll tell you' about it himself. Hurry up." . She went off into the sitting room which the two girls were to share, and -Elizabeth began twisting up her hair with shaking fingers. If Roys ton had seen Mrs. Mason she' knew that it meant the final burning of her boats, and she hardly knew if she was glad or sorry. She looked very young and rather scared w hen prosently she crossed the landing to their sitting room. As she opened the door she heard Roy stbn laughing and the clatter of tea-, cups. Netta was . at the head of the table, pouring out, and Royston stood beside her. He drew forward a chair for Elira beth. "I hope you are feeling rested," he said. "Netta tells me you have been sleeping." "Yes; my head ached. I was very tired." Elizabeth wished that the color would not keep rising to her face. She sat down at the table feel ing painfully nervous. "You've been to see my aunt, then?" she said after a moment. "Yes. I told her that you were here with Netta and that you were perfectly safe and comfortable, for the time being at any rate. I also told her that she was at liberty to come and see you at any time if she cared to do so." " f "She wilj nof come," said Eliza beth. ." . . . v "No." he agreed. " "I don't think she will; but at any rate w;e have Jiecn open and aboveboard with her. he was very augry with me, of. course. Nol I'm not going to tell you what she said," he added, laugh--ing. Elizabeth's eyes asked a ques tion. "Old cat 1" said Netta. Then she laughed and apologized. "I'm sorry, Elizabeth; I forgot she was a rela tion of yours." "It doesn't matter," Elizabeth said; Vhen tea was ended Netta went off to interview Mrs. Silcuin about supper. "We don't, as a rule, have any," she said, candidly. "But in honor of you, my dear, I - think something might be managed." She looked at Royston. "Will you stav. Pat?" "Not to supper, thanks. I Jtlst want to make a few arrangements with Miss Conyers." . Netta departed and Elizabeth raised her eyes to Royston's. "What are you going to do with me?" she asked, timidly. . "Teach you to dance, first of all, he answered, briskly. "You will have your first lesson the day after to morrow. Tomorrow youwill go and do some shopping with Netta." Elizabeth flushed. "You mean these clothes will not do?" she asked. "I think others would be more suitable," he answered. . ... Elizabeth nodded. Yes, yes, I know. And then?" She stood look ing up at him appealingly. "And' then," he went on, "if you turn out as well as I believe you will I shall take, you into the school providing ybu care to come, of course!" he added hurriedly. "Oh, I shall love it!" Elizabeth said. v He made wry face. . "Don't be too sure it s hard work and monotonous work. Vait till vou've tried teaching a lot of duds to dance and then . .". He broke off laughing. ( "No; that was too bad of me, wasn't it?" . , "And will you give me my hrst lesson?" Elizabeth asked, eagerly "No; I think I shall leave that to X"tOh'"h'There was a little silence. Elizabeth stood twisting her fingers. -Of course, I suppose you don t take quite beginners like me?" she added, Un,COhaiye' I do worse than you miles worse. But I think I'll let you Try Netta first of all; she's a sp endid teachcr. andlamsureyouwill like "I like her now. , . "That's capital; I kTCWt0 uld'f She dsnccs beautitully, ,ot course." ,. 1,. "She dances very correct y. he answered; "but she has notthe gift of temperament as you have. "s I have?" She caught him up cagerlv. "You mean-do you tneaa that I might-might even dance bet ter than she does?" . ' . - "I will answer that question later on." he said, smiling. "And then if I get on well can 1 dance with you?" Yes" - Elizabeth looked at him with ahining eyes; she felt as if the future . had suddenly opened in a blaze ot ,.nrv. She dragged her thoughts back tcthe present difficult "Mr. Royston-! h.it i0, How much will it coit" -co.tr , .

Her anxloui eyes caught his, Rnyiton hesitated; then lie laid genily; ' Terhipi the beat wav mill be for you to give me, say, 20, and then 1 ran pay Mri. Silcum (or you and see that you are not cheated." "And you will pay yourself, loo?" Hit face twisted into a dry mule. "Oh, ye, I promi.e you that 1 will ray myself. i.'O is a lot of money, vou know: it, will lait for weeks, living carefully at you will live here." ' She gae a sigh of relief. "I'm so glad: I thought ! should not have enough." He took up nil roat from a chair. "And now I must be off. I shall ire you the day alter tomorrow." "Yc and. Mr. Royston, I with I could thank you for being 10 kind to me." He colored. "I'lease don't! Why. how do you know that anything I may 'have don for you i" not from an entirely selfish motive!'.' "What do you mean?" ' "I mean that you may prove to be i grrat dancer in the future: a ire end Jakloi. or cen girtrr. He lam,'hrd, "It would be tuo oudi(nl!' He held out I i hand.
