Roger saw it not, as he stood at her side brooding on his dark thoughts, looking fate the dull fire. The Admiral was busy with the paper in the window, and did not look that way,

Under these oreumstances here follow expressions of regret that you should have been anjustly censured, and it ends, with You will be pleased to hold yourself in readiness to rejoin the forces in South Africa. Farther instructions will be forwarded to you shortly."

prosume that the woman was egged on by the solicitor at Wynstead to assert her claims, on the death of Sir Juba Fentos, a thing she had never attempted whilst he was alive knowing well enough that her c'hims were bought. I do not suppose that the lawyer was aware of the foots. She was too work to disabaw him and tell him the truth, and she was in deadly alarm lest, now that Sir John yas i ud, ber anggity would cease to be paid, and she allowed to fall back into destitution and the stough of wretched- noss from which she had emerged.

"I have been, Roger, something of all sorts since November last. I have dine I with Lords and Ladies in Belgravia, and have poured out cocon for fantary girls in the East End.

She is by no means a bad woman, not so bad as you might suppose, only woak and self-indulgent and loving ease, the wife of a drunken sot of good birth."

"But, by George! engaged again,” exolaimed Captain Sir Roger Fenton, taking her hand.
Chris, you have this day seen me recover my reputation and my prospects, and I must have my girl restored to me as well, to make my happiness complete."
Dear Reader,-

I should have forbidden the issue, but for que consideration. Roger is back in South Afric and is doing famously there as brilliant offler.
But I bave no intention of being married to him till I can find a suitable girl who will take my place and carry on my work in the Balz wayo Club. My cousia Martha will never be well again. Her health is permanently broken.
I cannot, I dare not desart my post and leave it unfilled. Every girl raised to a sense of the dignity of womanhood, to a love of order and good and parity, influences at Inset eight others. And so the good done spreads. In ever widening circles.
