Looking up somewhat impatiently, Colonel Holt was struck by the change in the man’s demeanor.

For a few min- utes Colonel Holt pondered over the matter and the man’s strange manner, then muttermg something to the effect that servants’ ways were past flading om, he dismissed the sub- ject from his thoughts and became engrossed in business letters of tinportance. At luncheon, muct to Mrs, Holt’s amaze- ment, a sirange servant was in attendanze, “Where ts Simmons?” she asked. “Oh, clalmed Colonel Holt, suddenly re- membering he had not enlightened his wife, “this {3 Simmon’s brotaer, woo has taken hid sens for a week or two. I have been so busy I forgot to tell you.” 4 Mrs. Holt asked no further questions till the Man had ieft the room. Then she satd: “My dear, when you allowed Simmons to leave. did you remember that Mrs. Perceval and Evie were coming to-day, and that we have a din- ner-party to-morrow?” “Yes, I did not forget. bat the man would go. I could get notaing out of the fallow, ex- cept that be must go this very day, and would return by the twentieth.” “ Bat what reason did he give for such extra- ordinary conduct?” “None whatever. He looked miserably ill and changed, a3 paleas a ghost. I never saw such a scared object in my life.” “ Do you think he had been drinking?” “ Ob, no, he was a3 sober aga jude. Never mind, his brother wiil do very well, no doubt; he’s butler at Beauchamp, and looks a descent Sortof fellow. By-the-by, what tim? 1s the bl tobe atthe station to meet the Per- cevals?” Before Mrs. Holt could reply, Simmons No. 2 appeared, bearing a telegram. “ This has jast arrived, madam.” “A telegram! Some change of plans, I sup- pose, On the part of tue Percevals,” said Mrs. Hoit, opening the envelope quickly. “On, how Uresome!

I think Ill take tne dog-cart and drive to the station. No doubt there will pe fish and other things to be fetched.” And Colonel Holt sauntered out. Oca his return, to his great surprise, Sim- mons himself met him at tne half-door, “You back again! What does this m2an?” The man isoked confused, stammering out, ‘I—l—thougat bettor of it, sir, and—and— hope you will forget what has passed.” “You are devermined to puzzie me to-day, Simmons.

To Launce Spencer she had of course told the tale, and ince had petted and soothed her, and made nothing of it; and with ber hand in his, and her head on his shoulder, she could feel no fear. Jt was once more the beginning of Ai when, one bright morning Launca unex- pectedly received a summons to join his regi- ment; a court-martial, or some duty equally important, required his presence. Poor Effie wandered about the house like an unqulet pes after his departure. At length a bright thought struck her. “Mother, this would be the very time for my Visit to the Holts.

No paintul teaghts appeared to Inger of that interrupted visit to the Priory. “Weil, Effie, send off your telegram, then; but you need not say your diamond3 will ac- company you,” she added, laughing. Effie flew up to the lMtle village pat office and dashed off the following message: “I am coming to-morrow for a few days, un- less you telegraph back to the contrary.” In the evening Mra. Perceval inquired if sh3 had received an answer. “Ob, no; I told them not to answer unless they could not have me.” “Sull I wonder you have not heard,” re- turned her mother; but Effie was quite sure it was all right, 80 no more was sald. Next morning she was up early putting the finishing strokes to her packing, laughing aod singing, apparently in the nignest spirits. “Good by, darling mother. I shall write to you to-morrow. Isn’t it odd? it was this very day, August 4th, that we were to have gone to the Hoits last year.” Stull fo painful reminis— cences on the subject. Her mother kissed and blessed her, preacned care and caution, and so they parted. On arriving at X— station, Effie was some- what surprised to flad that no vehicle awaited her from the Priory; however, she was able to procure a ily without any difticulty, the omis- sion was of little consequence. It so happened she had never visited the Holts before, great friends though they were. They had mst abroad and at the houses of common friends, but something had aiways come in the way of a visit to the Priory, aud Effie could scarcely believe she was really on her way thither. A3 the ily drove up to the door of the old hou:e, she saw Mrs. Holt in the garden, and, putting out her head, nodded aud smiled gaily. Up Tan her hostess, exclaiming, “fie, my dear chiid, what a delightful surprise! Woy didn’t you Jet us know you were coming?” pe Ueely, you received my telegram yester- “No; did you send one?

Fred, you must have him sent away.” While Effie was lunching, Colonel Holt ran Over the Dames of those who were stayiag in the house, and of the neighbors who were coming to dinner. “TI hope you have brought a smart dress, young lady, andall your diamonds, for there 1s to be a perfect invasion of natives.” “Oh, I. think I shall do,” laughed EMie, “though I was not prepared for such a tfes- uv! ey don’t happen often, thank goodness; why, now I think of it, you left us in the turca en the Jast grand occasion; this very day, last year, by Jove, so It was.” "Yes, Oh, we won't taik of that,” sald ET, shuddering and turning pue. She was relieved by tue entrance of Mrs. Holt, who offsred to take her to her room. “fT have done the best I can, dear; ordered my den to be turned into a bedroom for you.
