He replied quietly, “I understand what you feel, Celia, but if 1 were you I would try not to think of him at all.” She had relapsed again into her listless composure, and sald in her usual voice: “I never do unless I have had bad dreams or some one speaks of him to me.” The implication here was plainly, o please don’t speak of him to me | again.” “I am glad of that” Hilary an- swered, “and we'll never talk of him again; but tell me just one thing more; it was better for you when you got older, and your governess was so much with'you, wasn't it?” “He didn't strike me before her,” said Celia. Something in made him gently but firmly closed a door in his face. She had retired again into the secret depths of her personality, as a fish sinks out of sight in shadowy water.

The little Cella is troubled with doubt—and all that she will say about it even to her confessor and to me is that the feet of one ascending to heaven in our beautiful fresco of the last day caused this doubt in her! We have tried all means, both of persuasion and even of little penances, to make her reveal more. But, no! It is as if she had taken the vow of silence on thi¢ sub- ject. Her obstinacy is that of a little mule.” Again she sighed and smiled. “Of course, monsieur, young girls have strange fancies from time to time.

She is not fitted for it in any way. Besides, if she should persist in her obstinacy and doubts, monsfeur will understand that I, as head of the convent, could not rec- ommend her as an instructress for the young.” Hilary said he quite understood, and he only wanted to be sure of her views about Celia, as In case they were unfavorable he intended to ar- range an entirely different future for his ward. “Ah, smonsieur! Belleve me, that will be much better!” she cried great- 1y relieved. Then, as if fearing she might have prejudiced the young girl in his eyes, she added in a, tone of conviction “But In splte of these bizarreries, monsfeur, I assure you that the little Celia 18 tres gentille—all the sisters like her, especially Soeur Marle- Josephe—and I. too. have sincere af- fection for her. As Hilary motored through the soft Summer afternoon he pondered all these things, and some others, in both heart and mind. Being in loco parentls to Celia Gibbs, he thought, was also to be in something of a dilemma. Fortunately, there was Laura; still more fortunate. ly, she had grown fond of the girl. Before he reached Parls he had de- back to Paris cided to ask her to help him by plac- ing herself to a mild degree in loco catris. He would choose the right moment and suggest that she should bring his word “out” with Maudle, ‘Winter after next. In that way Celia would be given a fair chance. It was the best method he could think of to “make it up to her” in some degree. The following Summer he spent & week with Laura and the two girls during the holidays. His interest in Cella’s odd personality Lad drawn him there as much as his affection for Laura. But he found the girl far more ren- fermer in family life than she had been during their interview at the convent. He thought that he might make some advance in a friendship with her if he could get her to walk with him alone. This, however, he found diffi- cult, as when she was not with Maudie or Laura she was in the sea. He swam well himself, but Cella swam as one imagines o mermaid swimming. She could stay longer under water than he had thought possible for any- thing but a seal, and no rock seemed too high for her to dive from. He had asked her one day, “From what height do you think you could dive, Celia?" And she had answered with her faint smile: “From the topless towers of Illium!" (Copyright. 1925.

Un der the old code all thieves, petty and big, were subject to severe penalties, The new code classes larceny of 10 pesetas (§1.50) or less as a misde- meanor. For larceny of more than 10 pesetas the penalty increases grad- ually so that he who gets away with 1,000,000 pesetas or more faces life tmprisonment. ‘The notorious “Spanish prisoner™ swindle {s also punishable by heavy penalties.
