There’s a lot in you—undeveloped.

Then he rang the bell for the waiter and ordered supper. CHAPTER XXIill. Amazing Appearance of the Professor. Mr. Stock had returned to London, baffled and perplexed—to be met by Raymond Hawley, full of indignation | against the woman who had so auda- _ciously taken the place of Grace Yar- wood, and full also of schemes for get- ting rid of her: The lawyer simply shook his head and pointed out the futility of any legal method. “I have tried to frighten her—but it’s all no use; and I have no real ; means of proving that she is not what she claims to be. The one man who witnessed the transfer of the papers is dead; she has only to deny every- | thing that is suggested. Frankly, I am baffled, and I don’t know what to do.” He went home, and perhaps for the first time in his life confided some- thing of his legal difficulties to the sympathetic ears of Mrs. Stock. And he came to his office in the morning, there to find a whimsical note from Roger Hawley, which sent him off at a great rate in a cab for the hotel in which Grace was staying, «1d which sent Enoch Flame off in another cab to the hotel wherein Raymond Haw- ley was to be found. “This is one of the things,” said Mr. Stock, gravely, “of which the law takes no count. This is pure blind chance, and without that blind chance we might have had to stand still for some | time ,and perhaps have been beaten in | the end, “Now; you see, my dear,” ae added to Grace, “it has all come right.” ” , “Not for me,” said Grace. “My for- tune is one thing; Raymond is anoth- er.” ) “But I thought they, were, in a sense, mixed up together,” said Mr. Stock, knitting his brows. | “That’s just the worst of it,” said the girl. “When he met me first and —and—loved me, he thought I was only a poor girl; instead of which I knew at once who he was, and that it had been arranged that I should mar- ry him. Suppose he should think that I tried to sccure him because of the fortune?” “And suppose, again, he shouldn’t?” said Mr. Stock. “My dear young lady, | in the matrimonial world, where good looking people are concerned, there is such a rush—if I may term the thing | in an unprofessional manner—that you had best secure your lover while you can. Mrs. Stock—before she was Mrs. Stock—called upon me at the, office in regard to some property held by her father; it was totally unneces- sary and unprofessional, but.I suggest- ed that she should call again, and she did. Confirming my first impression with my second, I suggested, quite in a professional manner—that I should be glad in future to do anything for her without charging -her anything for it; she understood, and I interviewed her father that night—unprofessional- ly. I seized the opportunity, and I did not throw away what I still regard as @ good chance. My dear young lady, be guided by me.” ; “L don’t quite understand,” said Grace, with a smile. “You are absolutely and utterly con- vineed that this young man sought you out at a time when you were, to all intents and -purposes, as poor as Job. I have no doubt that he suggest- ed he would cast aside the cousin he {Should have married—or thought he should have married—for you?” “Yes, he did,” said Grace, with a blush. 0 $0 AQ OOO OOOODOOOOooOooooooo “Very well, then; the fact that you happened to be that cousin he should marry clinches the matter, to my mind. I should not have loved—I use the word in its most decorous sense, peliéve me, Miss Yarwood—should not have loved Mrs. Stock any the less had she brought to me more property than she possessed; being a practical-mind- ed man, it might even have increased the affection I felt for her. And this lover of yours would be very poor, by the loss of you and the loss of his for- tune, if for any scruple you cast him aside now; don’t forget that.” “I forget nothing, Mr. Stock; I re- member only that I knew myself to be Grace Yarwood and did not tell him,” persisted Grace. “For very obvious reasons, my dear,” said Mr. Stock. ‘Here comes Raymond; seeif he can persuade you.” Mr. Stock, in a very unprofessional manner, shut the obstinate girl and Raymond into his little waiting room and ‘left them there. In a short time Raymond came out holding Grace’s hand in his, and spoke with a very nice tone of triumph in his tones to the lawyer. “I think you ought to know, Mr. Stock,” he said, with a smile, “that we have decided to ask for our fortune together. In a sense, of course, we are helpless, which makes it very hard for both of us,” he added, with a laugh and a glance at the girl, “but I have persuaded Grace that her name has really been such an unlucky one, and has been used so frequently by a cer- tain unscrupulous person, that the sooner she gets rid of it the better it will be for herself, and of course for me.” 3 “The wedding had better be at an early date,” said Mr. Stock. “At all events, there must be no usual lovers’ delays over the matter; the time is running out, and if you are not mar- ried within \ the six months of your first meeting, Miss Joyce Bland—or | Mrs. Roger Hawley—may get the for- tune after all through her husband.” There was no unnecessary delay. They fulfilled that last condition in the will of the late John Hawley in less than a month from that time, and were installed at Hawley Park. Be- fore that date Mr. Stock, in wandering over the estate, stumbled upon the place where the gipsy encampment had once been, and found only the blackened embers of a fire—that’fire which had warmed Grace Yarwood and her friends on so many adventur- ous nights. The Ormanys were gone —never to return. As a matter of fact, Neal Ormany had taken his way out into the world, fearful that his share in that night’s work at the old mill might be known; and his wife had gone with him, true to the last to the creature she had married. ” Will Ormany, however, sternly refused to have anything to do with his father again; on the morning when the camp was finally deserted he told his sister Lydia what he meant to { do. “The old gipsy life isn’t for us, Ly- dia,” he said. “The real gipsy blood in us must have a taint, somehow, from father. You and me will just go out together and make a way for ourselves somewhere; I'll look after you, never fear.” He turned at the last and looked back at the place where he had first seen Grace Yarwood standing in the light of the fire on a summer night, sighed angglaughed and shook himself, and went*With Lydia out into the great world. There came a day in the early win- ter—the day, to be exact, when Ray- mond and Grace had returned from a brief honeymoon—when Mr. Stock stood before the fire in the room used by him as an office at Hawley Park, and made verbally his final arrange- ments in regard to the young couple. ; “It has all turned out as it should have done,” he said, looking in the old fashion over his spectacles at them both; “and I should like to say—quite unprofessionally—that it has given quite a savor of romance to the ordi- nary dull legal procedure. Few people, Mrs. Raymond Hawley, go through | quite so much as you have done to se- cure a fortune; few people would wish to go through quite so much. I con- fess, however, that there are some of those who were associated with you concerning whom I should like to learn something. I don’t mean Enoch | Flame; my only regret concerning him is that we could not keep him in England, and that he had made up his mind to return to the land he loved, and in due time to leave his bones there.” “But for him we should never have had our fortune,” said Grace, softly. “I refer to the Tapneys. That man was the most delightful blunderer I have ever come across in my life, and I should very much like to know what has become of him. Wherever he is, he is doing something extraordinary and totally unexpected; the respected Mrs. Tapney cannot possibly be pos- sessed of any nerves whatever.” It was at that very moment that a servant entered and announced that there was “a party to. see Miss Yar- wood.” the young couple and smiled; Grace sprang to her feet. Mr. Stock glanced quickly at |* claimed. “May he come in?” He came in—dquite in the old fash- ion, with his head on one side, and his big, wideawake hat flapping in one hand. And leaning on him, and look- ing weak and ill, was a man whom they recognized at once as Owen Jag- gard—not quite so jaunty looking as he had been in past days. Behind the professor came Mrs. Tapney, and, last- ly, Absalom—evidently very resentful concerning the whole proceedings. The professor deposited Jaggard very carefully upon the sofa, advanced rap- idly tothe lawyer, seized a button of his coat, and began to talk to that but- ton at a great rate. “Excuse this intrusion, which will be, I assure you, the last—positively the last. Coming, as we have, from what I may term, for want of a better phrase, the stony bosom of Nature, we may appear rugged and uncouth in our manner. Forget it. We have been for some time reposing on hard beds, or on no beds at all; and we have, in a way, been living on a sovereign—” “Obtained from me—by force,” sup- plemented Absalom, grimly. “And on credit obtained on the strength of that preliminary payment abstracted from my son,” went on the professor. “This gentleman here— nursed by Mrs. Tapney with a patience and a devotion no other woman could have displayed—is what I might term a by-product of Nature—found by me in the wilds; I bring him here to-day because he has a wish, if possible, to go abroad, and to make what he terms a fresh start. There being no possi- bility for me to go abroad, I come here simply to plead for him and with the full intention to drift out, immediately afterwards, with Mrs. Tapney and our offspring, Absalom, and to begin the world on our own accounts—and not for the first time.” “You remember me, Mr. Stock?” said Owen Jaggard. “These good peo- ple have looked after me and brought me back to what strength I have.” “By-product of Nature,’ murmured the professor, looking at him with his head on one side, and as though won- dering how he would look on a twig in a glass case. “And you want to go abroad again?” said Mr. Stock. “I dare say that can be arranged,” he added. “Thank you. There was a woman who came here and tried to claim what wasn’t hers,” went on Jaggard, slowly. ‘Any injury she did me I’ve forgotten long since—and forgiven. Could you tell me anything about her?” “She is married,” said Raymond— “and has left the country with her husband.” “Good old Joyce!” muttered the man. “She never had half a chance with me; she may come out right yet.” “We'll hope, so,” said Mr. Stock, with a sigh. Perhaps it may be as well to state that Prof. Tapney went no more to Nature—at all events, in that indis- criminate fashion he had so often adopted. For a suggestion was thrown out—delicately enough—that a collec- tion might have been made to fill cer- tain cabinets in the great house in Hawley Park, and that a man of ex- perience and judgment was wanted for the post. It has to be recorded, also, that Mrs. Tapney, on hearing that the professor had accepted the post, burst into tears for the first and only time in her life, and thanked her stars that the professor had not gone to Nature for nothing! “I told you, my love,” said the pro- fessor, “‘when we set our backs to the sea and had all Nature before us, in a manner of speaking, that something would come of it, and that we were in a sense providing for ourselyes—and Absalom. I have been ungrateful; Nature has never really failed me yet.” “J don’t know so much about that,” said Mrs. Tapney, drying her eyes. Nature wouldn't have been much good to you if you hadn’t been lucky enough to find the missing Grace Yarwood.” The End. THIEF’S CLEVER RUSE. How He Buncoed Dinner From an Eng- lish Landlord. “I dined one evening at d’Armenon- ville with Charles Frohman,” said an actor who spent June and July abroad. “Mr. Frohman described to me the picturesque inns of Banbury, Oxford and other old English towns. “He said the service in these inns was good, but the proprietors were un- sophisticated and tourists frequently cheated them. “Thus one night in Oxford a shabby man who had supped at a table next to Mr. Frohman’s rose at the end of his meal, grabbed his faded hat and a magnificent gold-hancled umbrella and rushed out. “Stop him!” said the proprietor, awaking from a reverie a little too late. “That fellow vary away with- out paying.’ «J']] stop him,’ said a me man, aris- ing hastily from a corner table, ‘he’s taken my gold-handled umbrella. I'll stop him, and bring him back, the rascal!” “The stout man rushed out in pur suit of the thief and that, of course, was the last the landlord ever saw of him or of the other.”—Chicago Jour. nal.

Methods of Teaching History. To teach history as it should be taught in our public schools the meth- ods of the universities must be adopt- ed. The scholar must not be re- quired to load his mind with dates; the aim should be to give him a vivid impression of the doings, not only of the chief actors, but of the people of the period treated. To tell a pupil that Virgil died on a certain date and that he was an excellent poet is not calculated to arrest the attention, but link his name with the literary and other exploits of the Romans of the century before the beginning of our era, and that object will be accom- plished.—San Francisco Chronicle. Another Whistler Story. Clyde Fitch said the other day: “It was in Paris that I heard the best Whistler story. He was in Paris at the time of the coronation of the king of England, and one evening, at a reception at the Hotel Ritz a duch- ess said to him: “Do you know King Edward, Mr. Whistler?’ “No, madame,’ said the painter. “She looked surprised. “Why, that is odd,’ she murmured. ‘I met the king at a dinner party last year, and he said that he knew you.’ ““Oh,’ said Whistler, ‘that was only his brag.’” The R Months.
