"I havo meant to speak to you," Polsom auswered. since I bad time to think this night's work over, and oftar what I heard just now, I mean it more than ever."

He entered the room and his father gave way before him. He had forgotton the evident traces of bie recent tears, and stood with his eyelashes still glistening and his cheeks wet and scalded. But his brows were drawn level and bis jaw was thrust out beneath the tightened lips

in a way which brought out the family like ness with amazing force.

"So you lee been eavesdropping ? " "You know I haven't," Polson answered in cold disdain. But I'm not going to follow that red-herring. I say Spain's not the place

"Very well. I suppose you believe the rara these elaps havs pitched to Stubbs!"

"What am I to believe!"

Suppose it's true,, what do you think is going to happen!

"Shame and ruin to us all," said Polson. "As for shame may be yes-most likely no. As for ruin-that's as I please."

"Oh
