She was the widow of an American, and was on her way to Bahia to join her son In the confusion of names hors got coupled with his, and they were printed together. She was an old woman, old enough to be Mark Lambert's mother." "Is this true?"

"It is gospel trath."

As Lady Bottrell heard this intelligenes, it soomed to her as if, instead of bringing any relief to her mind, say consolation in the sbaps of the knowledge that thero was at least one Mark Lambert-your husband-will got thing, one sin, in Mark Lambert's sinful life, nothing!"

"Nothing. There will be nothing to get. No which he had not committed, it brought to her one to give him anything. For the moment Siron even deeper pang than before. For, with bis abaolution from that wickedness, that outrage Geoffrey Bottrell earns what Mark or you have

Why should be pay money to shield a still more sordid, cold-blooded affair than it awowan who is only his-who has no claim had appeared hitherto. It removed from her the one justification she had always considered on bira: whatever!

horself to bare possessed for having, at the end of a year, married mother mas. Nay, she knew that it had been the incentivo for marrying that other man; it had stirred her to the desire to remove all rocollection of that first, that secret marriage; to ceass morning for a bad un- faithful mon, by espousing ono who was honest and honourabfo and who loved her and her alona,

Spanking most defiantly, almost harshly and contemptuously to this man, Lady Battrell pro- duced an offest upon him which he had net hitherto imagined he would be likely to experi- once. An effect which caused the idea to arise in bis oind that her reflections during the time which had elapsed between their first interview and this hat caused her to become hard and resolute. Perhaps, also, to become determined to brasa everything, to even up. fess her secret to her husband,

And if that were so, if she should decide to do that; if and he flushod at the thonght! she had already done so, nothing would ever be forthcoming. Nothing!

Then he remembered instantly that, in the latter case, she would not be here. She wonid ever have come to this hotel sarreptitiously

again, but in her place, there would be either Sir Geoffrey Bottrell, pale, wretched and dis traught, or same stern business man; some shrewd Landon lawyer, demanding the address of Mark Lambert, so that he could be put into communication with him at ouos. She had not told her husband, Challis decided; she had no intention of talling him, sines she was heru, And she must never be allowed to tell him. For the secret would then be no longer a secret, bat common property, and that which is common property, he reflected, is worthles

Would he not do anything to shield his child?" he asked now, looking her straight in the face. "Weald he not pay Lambert to keep the secret? Pay him, indeed, as well as you could do, or even better, since he holds the purse. Only, to do so, he must possess the knowledge of that secret, while if you give your husband, your real huhund, what he wants, the knowledge is youre alone."

As the use spoke so calmly and with, as was plainly apparent, so much calculation in his mind, there came a fresh fear to Lady Bot trell's heart. For she andustood what his carefully.abman.words wore mount to conveys,
