THE LADY OFLYNN By SIR WALTER BESANT. •Copyright 1900 by Sir Walter ll.-m.si.) "No. I am your servant, as yon know—sometimes your most unhappy servant, but always at your command -only now and then lt pleases roe to call things by their proper names. At such times, Ludovlc, 1 look ln my glass, nnsi I see not tbe Lady Anastasia In a company of fashion, but a poor wretch Fitting In a cart with her arms tied down, a white nightcap on ber head and a prayer book In ber band. Tbere Is a coffin In the cart"— "Anastasia, you are ridiculous! What have we done that all the world would uot do If It could? These scruples aro absurd, and these visions are fantastic. What Is your share? Yon know that half of mine—all that Is mine—Is yours as well. You shall have my band and my name. These you sliould have bad long ago had they been worth your picking up. Alas, Anastasia, no ono knows better than you the desperato contlitlon of my affaire!" "Well, I will obey you. I will go back to town. I will go tomorrow. Tbe otber parties In our Innocency-* they will also go back, I suppose?" "Tbey will have done their part. Sir Harry and the colonel and the parson; they will all go back. Tbey cost a great deal to keep, and tbey have don* their work." "Should I see the girl before I go?"* "Perhaps not Write to her from Loudon. Invite her to stay with you. Kor my own part, I will look about me for the man we want—a prisoner; on the poor side; a gentleman, one who will do anything for a guinea a week. The girl will not know that he Is a prisoner. It will be quite easy"— Ttais be said, concealing his real Intention, and only anxious' to get this lady out of the way, but he left ber suspicious and jealous. Tbat Is to aay, she had already become both, and this Intricate plot of a husband from th* Fleet and tbe rest made her still more suspicious and jealous. Having dismissed Anastasia, ther* remained the parson and the poet Tbe latter he could send away at a day's notice; the former be would probably want for a certain purpose. He sent for Mr. Semple, his secretary. "Semple," he said. "I bave now made inquiry Into tbe truth or your statements—I mean as regards this young lady's fortune." "It Is as I told your lordship?" "It is. The fortune you bave exaggerated, but lt Is, no doubt, considerable. Well, I have sent for you in order to tell you that 1 am uow resolved upon carryiug out the project you submitted to nie. My own affairs are, as you found out, embarrassed. Tbe girl's fortune will be useful to me. Her person is passable; her manners will be Improved. I have therefore determined to make her my couutess." "My lord, I rejoice to have been the bumble Instrument"— "You have kept the secret so far, I believe. At least I have seen no sign that any oue suspects my Intentions. You have Invented a Ile of enormous audacity In order to bring us all together-myself, with your project up iny sleeve, aud certain friends of mine to assist lu various quarters. Your Inventions havo converted nn ordinary well luto a health restoring spring. You have CSUsed the elevation of this town of common sailors ami traders und mechanics Into a fashionable spa. tjeuiplc, you are a very Ingi-nlous person. I hope tbat you are satlstled with your success." "Gratified, my lord, not satisfied." "I understand. You shall be satisfied very shortly by the fulfillment of my promise. It Is, If I remember, to Und you a place under government worth at least £200 a year, with per* suulsltes. You shall learn, Semple, tbat 1 can be grateful and that I can keep my word, written or spoken. Now, there remains one more service." He proceeded to give blm certain Instructions. "And, remember, tbe greatest secrecy is to be observed. Neither you uor tbe captalu Is to reveal the fact until tbe business Is completed. Everything will be ruined if anything Is revealed. Your own future depends upon your secrecy. Yon are sure that you have your Instructions aright?" "I am quite sure, my lord. I am your embassador. I come with n message of great Importuucc. There nro reasons wby the proceedings nro to be kept secret. Tbe lady will be made a countess before a prying and Impertinent world can be Informed of your lordship's intentions. I fly, my lord. I Of." "One moment friend Senple. Before you depart on this mission resolve me as to a difficulty In my mind." "Wbat la tbat my lord?" "You are a***are, of course, that my plan of life Is not quite what this girl expects in a husband. She will expect. In fact the bourgeois virtues-constancy, fidelity, early hours, regularity. piety. You know very well that sbe will not find these virtues. You are preparing for tbe girl. In fact, a great disappointment aud perhaps a life of misery. If I siid not want her money. 1 might plry ber." Sam's face darkened. "Tell me, my friend, in return for wbat acts of kindness done to you by tbe captain or by Molly herself are you conferring tbls boon upon the girl?" Tbe poet made no reply for awhile. Then he answered, bis eyes on the ground: "Tbe thing Is as good as done. I may as well let you know. The captain cudgeled me like a dog-like a dog. My gratitude Is so great that 1 have succeeded In marrying bis ward to you, my lord. What worse revenge could I take?" "Frankly. I know of none." "You will waste aud dissipate the whole of ber fortune, and would If It were ten times as great. In raking and gaming; you will send ber back to ber own people broken hearted and ruined. That will be my doing." "Friend Semple," said his lordship. "If I were not Fyllngdale, 1 would be Semple, and, to tell tbe truth. If 1 saw any other way of raising money I would—well—perhaps—1 would—even pity tbe girl and let ber go." CHAPTER X. TIIE EXPECTED BLOW. HAT evening the blow, feared and expected, fell, for then we lost, or thought we lost, our maid. I found tbe captain sitting In the summer house alone without the usual solace of his tobacco and his October "Jack," be said, with a gloomy sigh, "1 am now the happiest of men because my Molly Is tbe most fortunate of women. 1 bave attained the ntmost I could hope or ask. The most virtuous of men—1 should say noblemen-has asked tbe band of our girl Molly will be a countessl Kejoice wltb tne!" 1 stood outside on tbe grass, having no words to say. "She will marry him Immediately. Nothing could be more bappy or more fortunate. Such rank, such a position as places ber on a levpl with the highest ladies of tbe land, though the daughter of plain folk, with u shipowner for a father and a sailor's daughter for a mother-there Is promotion for you, Jack!" "She will go away, then, and leave us?" "Aye, she will leave us. Jack. She will leave us. His lordship-you do not ask wbo It Is." "Wbo can It be, captain, but Lord Fyllngdale V" "The best of men. He will carry her off to his country bouse, where they will live retired for awhile, yet In sueh state as belongs to ber rank. We shall lose ber, of course. That however, we always expected. Tbe country bouse Is In Gloucester, on tbe other bide of England. Perhaps she may get to see us, but 1 am 75 or perhaps more, and Jennifer, ber mother, Is not r.ir from EW. 1 ennuot look to set eyes on her again. Wbat matter." be hemmed bravely and sat upright—"wbat matter, 1 say, so that the girl Is happy? Her mother may perhaps set eyes on her once more, but she will lie changed, because, you see. our Molly must now become a Hue lady." "Yes," I groaned; "she must become a fine lady." "Jack, sometimes I am sorry that she has so much money. Yet what was 1 to do? Could I waste and dissipate her money? Could I give away her ships? Could I give her, with the fortune of a princess, to a plain and simple skipper? No. Providence, Providence, Jack, hath so ordered things. I could not help myself." "No, captain, you could net help things. Yet"— I broke off. "Well, Jack, why dou't you rejoice with me? Why the devil don't you tough and sing? All you want Is to see her happy. Yet there you stand as glum and dumb ns a mute at a funeral." "I wish her happiness, sir, with all my heart." "Sam Semple camo here this afternoon by order of my lord. Sinn gives himself airs uow that he Is n secretary uud companion. He CBJBS and demanded conversation with ine. It was quits private, he said, and ot the utmost lin- portnuce. Ko we sat tu tlie parlor, uud with a bottle of wine between us we talked over the business. First he told mo that his patron, as he calls him, meaning his master, had been greatly taken with thc Innocence nnd the beauty of Molly. I replied that unless he was a stock or n stone or an Iceberg I expected nothing loss. He went on to say that, although a noblo earl wltb a long pedigree nnd a great estate, bis patron was willing to contract marriage with a girl who wns not oven of gentle birth and lind nothing but her beauty and her Innocence, I told bim that she had, In addition, a very large fortune. He said tluit his patron scorned the thought of money, being already as rich as most noblemen of his exnlted rank; that he was willing nlso to pass over nuy defect! In manners, conversation and carriage, which would be remedied by n little acqunlutoiiee with the polite world, In n word, bis lordship offered his band, Ids name, ills title, his rank and himself to my wurd." "His condescension." I said, "Is beyond all praise." "I tblnk so, too; beyond nil praise. 1 nsk his advice touching a lnisliimil for niy girl. He promises his assist* ance In tbe matter, and he then offers himself. Juck, could nuythlng ho more fortunate?" "I hope It mny turn out so. What does Molly say?" "You may go In nnd nsk her yourself. She will tell you more than she will tell anybody else. The matter Is to be kept for the present a profound secret lie- tween bis lordship and ourselves. Bnt since Sum Semple knows It, aud Jennifer knows it. and you ure one of ourselves, therefore you may as well know lt too. But dou't talk about lt." "Why should It be kept a secret? Why should It not be proclaimed everywhere?" "My lord snys that tbe place Is a hotbed of scandal: that be would not bave Molly's name passed about In tbe pump- room, to be the object of common gossip and Inventions made up of envy and malice. He would spare Molly this. Wben she Is once married and taken away from the plnce. tbey may say what they please. Whatever tbey say, they cannot do ber any harm. Why. some of them even declared tbat she was ono of the company of strolling actresses. There Is nothing that tbey will not say." I made no reply because It certainly did seem as If In asking for secrecy bis lordship had acted In Molly's Interests. "Well, captain, we must make the best of It You must Ond your own happiness In thinking of Molly's." "What aggravates me, Jaek. I* the ridiculous behavior of my cousin Jen- j nlfer. Sbe is ln tbe kitchen crying, and tbe blnck with ber. Go and comfort i her before you see Molly." I looked luto tbe kitchen. Molly's mother sat In the great wooden chair beside the fireplace. She held ber apron In her hands as If sbe bad Just pulled lt off her face, and the tears were on ber cheeks. When sbe saw me, tbey began to flow again. "Jack," sbe snld, "have you heard the news? Has tbe captain told you? Tbe worst bas bap- ; pencd. I bave lost my girl. She Is to be married Sbe will go away. She will marry a man who scorns ber guard- Ian and despises her mother. A bnd beginning. Jack. No good can come of such a marriage. A bad beginning. ! Oh, I foresee unbapplness! How can Molly become a tine lady? She is but a ! simple girU my own daughter. 1 hnve made ber a good housewife, and all her knowledge will be thrown away and lost lt Is a bnd business, Jack. Nl- | grn has been telling ber fortune. Ther* | Is notblng boperul. All tbe cards are | threatening. And tbe magpies and tbe screech owl"— She fell to weeping again, after I which she broke out anew: "The cap- tain says be Is tbe most virtuous man In tbe world. It Isn't true. If ever 1 | saw tbe Inside of a man In my life, I bave seen tbe Inside of that man. H* Is corrupt through and through"— "But consider. All the world Is crying up bis noble conduct and bis many virtues." "They may say what they like, lt Is false. He Is heartless. He Is cold. He Is selfish. He marries Molly for her mouey. Persuade the captain, If you can. He will not believe me." "How can 1 persuade him? I bav* no knowledge. Are tbey all ln a tale? Are you tbe only person wbo know* the truth? How do you know It?" "1 know It been use I love my girl, and *o I can read tbe very soul of a man. I bave read your soul, .lack, over and over again. You are true and faithful. You would love her and cberlsb ber. But this man-he knows not wbat love means nor Uslellty nor anything. Go. Jack. Tbere la oo belp In you or ln nny other—because there Is none other." She spoke tbe words of the prayer book: '"None other thut tightrth for us but ouly thou, 0 God! Only thou, 0 God!' " She covered hs*r face again with her apron and fell to gobbing afresh. So I went Into the parlor where Molly was sitting. "Jack!" .She Jumped up. "Oh, Jack! I want you so badly." "I know nil, Molly — except what you yourself say and think ubout lt." She bad ii piece of work in ber hands, and she began to pull it and pick it us she replied. For thc tlrst time in my life I found Molly uncertain and hesitating. "The captain snys that it Is the greatest honor thut wns ever offered to any woman to be raised from a lowly eoiisll- tion to a high rnnk. and all for love," "All for love?" I osked. "Why, what else can It be thnt mndr him light fnr me with that desperate villain? Be risked ids life. Whatever happens, Jack, i cannot forget that." "No. It was doubtless u great thing to do. Has lie told you himself that it wns all for love?" "He luiB not spoken nhout love nt all. He has never once lii'eti alone with me. It seems Hint these great people make love by message. He sent a message by Sam Semple"— "A very line messenger of Cupid, truly!" —"offering marriage. The captain cannot coutnln his satisfaction ami sits glum. My mother Rays that she will never see me ngnln and begins to cry." "Well, but, Molly, to be sure It Is a great thing to become countcBS. Most women would Jump at the chance under nny conditions. Do you, however, think thnt you can love tho man?" "lie hasn't asked for love. Oh, Jack, to think tbnt people should marry each other without n word of love! If lie loves me, I supposo he thinks thai I am hound to give hlin love In return." "There again, Molly, do you love tlie man?" "Jnck, nobody knows me better than you. What reply can I mnke?" "He Is too cold and loo proud for you. Molly. How ran you love him? Perhaps," I ndded, because I was very sure that she would mnrry hlin, "after marriage you will find that Ids cold ness Is only a cloak to hide his nut urn I warmth and Uiat Ids pride covers his wife ns well as himself." "He Is a good man. Everybody says so. Lady Annstnslu declares that he is the most honorable and high principled of men. On tbat point I am safe. And think. Jack, what a point It Is. Why, to marry a drunkard, a sot. a profligate. a gambler—one would sooner die at once, nud so an end. But I can trust myself with bim. I bave no fear of sueh treatment as drives some wives to distraction. Yet be Is cold In bts manner and proud In tils speech. 1 might Und it lu my lit-art to love blm If I wns not afraid of him." And so she went backward and forward. He was so good and so great; bis wife must ulways respect him. He was of rank so exalted; it was a great bouor to become bis wife. Be wns so brave; she owi-d her rescue to his bravery. Yet be had spoken no word of love, nor bad she seen any sign of love. 1 asked her what sign she expected, and she "was con fused. "Of course." she said, "auy girl knows very well when a man Is ln love with her." "How does she know?" I asked her. "She knows because she knows." I supi-osc she felt tbat the man was not lu love wltb ber Just as her mother felt tbat hi* character for virtue and nobility waa assumed- "corrupt within," sbe said. Women are made so. And In the next breath Molly repeated that what tils lordship had done was done for love. "How do you know'" I asked again. "Because the captain says so," sbe replied, with unconscious Inconsistency. "Is tbe courtship to be conducted en tlrely by messenger?" I asked. "No. He will come tomorrow morning and see me. I am to give blm an answer tben. But tbe captain nns already told blm what the answer Is to be. Ob. Jack, I am so bappy! I am so fortunate tbat I ought to be happy Yet I am so downhearted about It. Going away Is a dreadful tblng. And wben shall 1 see any of you, I wonder, again? Ob, 1 am so fortunate; I am so happy"— And to show ber happiness she dropped a tear, and more tears fol lowed. Wbat kind of happiness, what kind of good fortune, was that which couhl (111 tbe mind of tbe captain with gloom and could dissolve Molly's mother In tears and could herald Its approach to the bride by sndiu-ss which weighed her down? And, as for me, yoo may believe that my heart was like a lump of lead within me. partly because I was losing tbe girl I loved, but had never hoped to marry, and partly because from tbe outset of the whole affair—yes, from the very evening when the news of the grand discovery wa" read to the Society of Lyon■-*. *..,n looked forward to coming events with forebodings of the most dlsmnl kind "Come to see me tomorrow after noon, Jnck." slip said "I tnusi talk atiout it io some oue. With the cap tain I cannot talk because he is all tor the unequal match, and with my mother I cannot talk, because she foretells trouble and will acknowledge no good thing at all in tin* mini or in the match. L>o uot forget, Jaek. Come tomorrow. I slon't know how many days an* left to me when I can nsk you to come. Oh, Jack, to leave everybody, all my friends! It Is hard. But I am the most ungrateful of women because I um the happiest—the happiest—oh, Jack, the happiest and most fortunate woman that ever lived!" . ll.M'ED.] Cfclnn'a Dlnlrcta.

Few In- deed were the men who could boast of linvllig Ui Ul blm on his buck. Somewhere along In the thirties there wns u case on trial In one of the circuit courts lu that section In which an effort was made to impeach the testimony of one of the witnesses. The evidence was contllctlug, Some would believe the witness on ontb tinil others would not. At Inst n middle ni-cil men with n determined expression of countenance wns culled to the stnnd. The usual question was put touching the reputation of the witness for truth nnd veracity: "Would yon believe blm on oath?" "No, 1 wouldn't," he answered, nnd before the lawyer on the opposite side could Interpose he gnve his reason: ••I heeid hi in brnggln' onct that he'd (browed Abe Lincoln In e fnlr nn' square rnssle."

Tbo sulierer Iiom St. Vitus dance, even in u mild form, is much to be pitied, but when tbe disease assumes an aggravated form the patient is usually as helpless as an infant, and lias to be watched with as much care. St. Vitus dance is a disease of the nerves and must bu treuted through them, and for this purpose there ta no other medicine in tho world acts so speedily us Ur. Williams' Pink Pills. Proof of this statement is found in the cure of Miss Louise Lullinun, whose home is at Poucher's Mills, Ont., who was cuied by the.,e pills after two doctors hud fuils.'d to benefit her In the least. The young lady's mother tells tho story ol her daughter's illness as follows:—"1 do j not think it possiblo anyone could be afflicted with a more severe form of I St. Vitus dunce than that which attacked my daughter Louise. Her arms and legs would twitch und jerk, her face was drawn and finully her left side became numb as though par- I uly/ed. Two doctors attended her, but their treatmont not only did not help her but she grew steadily worse. Her tongue became swollen, her speech thick and indistinct, and sin; could neither sit still nor stand still. She could not hold anything in her hand ami it was necessary to watch ber ull the time as we feared that she would injure herself. The last, doctor who attended her told me sho would never get better, and it was then I decided to try Dr. William's Pink Pills. After she had taken two boxs*s we could see an improvement in her condition. Hei -appetite improved, she could sleep better and the spasms were less severe. From that on there was a marked improvement in her condition and one day the doctor who has said she could not. get better called while passing and found her ironing— something she had not been able to do for months. I told him it was Dr. Williams' Pink Pills that was curing her nnd he said, "Well, I am surprised, but continue the pills. they will cure her." She used in all eight or ten boxes and is now as healthy a girl as you will find anywhere, and she has not since had a symptom of the trouble." If you are weak or ailing; if your nerves are tired or jaded, s>r your blood is out nf conslition, you will be wise to use Dr. Williams' Pin!-! Pills, which are an unfailing cure for all blood and nerve troubles. But be sure you get the genuine. with the full name "Dr. Williams' I'ink Pills for Pale People" on the wrapper around every box.
