 IN (iOLDEIV BONDS. CHAPTEK XLâ€" (CoNTisuED.) The roses were in a cicar-box. and aa long » they lasted they never smelt of anything but tobacco bat 1 began to think that per- fume nicer than their own. I was so happy that evening that I was glad when Mr. Rajmer asked me to accom- pany his violin, and I was ?lad that he chose operatic selections agan, for in the passion- ate and sweet music of Don Giovanni an! // Trovatcre I could vent to my feelings. I felt that I had never appreciated the beau- tiful melodies so well, ncr helped so tffi- ciently to do justice to them as I did in ac- coiiipanying Sir. Kayrer that night. He waj so pleased with my helpfhat he begged me to go on, with "Just one more" acd "Just one more," until long after Mrs. Eayner had gene lo her room. I was noth- ing loath I could have played uctil mid- night. I did not say much in comment be- tween the pieces, when Mr. Rayner asked, " How do you like that ' But I suppose it was easy to see by my face that I was en- joyicg the muaic intensely, for he had just ncd.JeJ and smiled and seemed quite satisfied. The clock had struck the half-hour after tea, which was C|uite late for the household, at the Alders, when we finished playing " FcA die sapetp." '• And how do you like that?' caked Mr. r.ayr er £s usual, only that this tm.e he put down his \iolin, ar.d, drawing a chair close to my music-stool, ran his fingers over the keys cf ihe piano, repeating the melody. "Do ycu know the words? " Voi che sanete c'lt cos e amove,' "' he sacg softly. " Do ycu know what that means " " On, yea " said I, rather proud of show- ing oti' my small knowledge cf Italian. "You V, ho know what love is.' " I drew my ir.usic-stcol a little hack, and listened while he sacg it softly thrcugh. 1 had n-ver known a love-song to touch m.e like tliat before. I ceuld almost have cried cut in answer, as 1 sat with my head turn- ed away, listeniug, almost holdicg my breath, lest I should lose a sound. ^^ hen he had finished, he turned round I did not move or speak, and he jumped up, walked to t!:e shutters, unbarred them, and threw open the wiivJow. " 1 am sufi'ccatinsr. Oh for a Venetian \- " lid he. " Come here, little wo- oai^ouy iiiaa." I rcse and obeyc-" He threw a woollen antimacassar rouad my head und shouiceri, lad iirew me to the window. " Look up there, chiM. at the moon thrcugh the tree-tcps.

"Ob, Mr. Rayner " I said monmfuUy, End I turned slowly to the piano to put away tne music. "Never mind; I will do that," said he, in his usual tone. "I have kept you up long enough. Good n'ght, Undine. " I was almost afraid he would again want to kiss me, and, after offendinsj him once, I should not have dared to refuse. So I shook hands as hastily as I could, took my candle, and ran np-atairs. 1 was very angry with myself for having been cold and unsympa- thetic â€" Ihad not meant to be so at all. But the fact was I had been thinking the whole evening of Mr. Laurence Reade. CHAP3ER Xn. I slack ent d my pace when I got to the top I through the coiridor where the nnnery was, for fear of waking Mona and, as I went slowly alon^ the passage leading to the tar- ret stairSj I began to think of what Mr. Rayner had called me, and wonderel what he meant by saying I had no sonl. " It wasn't because I am not sorry for bim, for be must have seen that I am," thought I. " I suppose I don't show my sympathy in the right away; but I could not very well say more about it without being disrespectful. And I must not forget that Mr. Rayner is not only much older that I. but also my employer," And so I crept rp the turret stairs with candle, End opened the door of my room. It was a calm night, and I walked in very slowly, yet, as I entered, my candle went cut suddenly, as if blown by a gust of wind and I fancied I heard a slight sound as of a human breath Mowing it. I stepped forward quickly, a little startled, and tried to peer into the darkness. But it was impossible to see, for my fire had gone out, the blinds were down and the curtains drawn, and not a ray of moonlight could get in. I stood for a few minutes, still frightened, in the middle of the room, and then cautiously made my way in the direction of the mantle- piece, where I kept my match-box. I made a slight noise as I passed my fingers over the different articles there, and, just at the mo- ment that I knocked over a china ornament which fell into the fireplace, above the noise it made as it broke to pieces in the grate I heard a sound behind the screen which stood between the bed and the door, and, turning ciuickly, I was in time to see a figure come swiftly round it and disappear through the still opan door, I could distinguish nothing; nevertheless, suppressing my inclination to scream, I rushed to the door and caught in the air at the figure I could no longer see but 1 felt nothing, Then I crept back into my room, shak- i:3g from head to foot, and hardly daring to move in this direction or that, for fear of encountering another dim figure. I clos- ed the door behind me, tick with fear lest I should be shutting myself in with more un- welcome visitors and, starting at the slight creaking that a board made here aud there under my own feet, I again search- ed the mantle-piece for the match-box. My hands trembled so that it was a long time before I could be sure that it was not there; and then I turned and felt my way back to the table; and, after moving most of the things on it, I at last satisfied myself that it was not there either. Then 1 groped my way to one of the windows â€" I had not thought of that before â€" drew the curtains and pulled up the blind. The moon gave only a fitful light, being obscured every other minute by thin drivicg clouds, and it only served to make shadows in the room hich were more fearful to me, in my nerv- ous state, than darkness itself. I had one more ear ch for' the m'itches, but could not find them even now. It was out of the (juestion to undress by such «eird moonlight, fancying diua shapes iu every corner and noises behind me which- ever .v"ay I turned so I Jetei mined to con- quer my fear.s and go down-stairs with my canc'le and get a b'ght below. There were sure to b= torr.e matches iu the kitchen, and I ufiicted that enough moonlight would ccme in over or through the shuttera to let me see my way without making a noi:e. Sol groped my way down the back stair- case, -nhica I had never ussd before, got safely to the bottom, turned to my left, and felt for a door. Tne first opened into a big black cupboard where I left brocms, which I shut again nuickly; the second was locked, but the key was in the door, and I softly turned it. This was indeed the kitchen but the .TiOment I found this out, and gave a iigh oi relief, I heard on the floor a sound which I knew too well to be the rush of myriads cf blac'ti beetles and, aa I would rather ha\e faced a dczcu dim human ttJurts than have felt under my foot the "scrunch" of blackbeetle, 1 had to shut that doer too as ijvKckly as I had shut the Oth-r. 'J'ne ouly thing, left for me was to ft el my vay back to the staircase, c;.o dov. n ih-i pas- 'â- gt- at the other side of it, whicii led past 1m r. R.iyiier's stUily, ard so into the hall, where I knt w the exact p; sition of the matcit-bcx which stood on the hall table. My only fear cow was that I tnight m.eet }dr. Rajner, iu the event cf his tot having h-ft tie hou?e yet to go to his room. If 1 met irlni, I should iiave to acooutit for my pres- i lue wandering about the house at this time cf night, acd I felt that I was still too much discern posed by the fright I had received for his bharp eyes not to notice my pallor and my qi;aking hai.da and then I should have to lei I him what I had seen, and there would be a search and an explanation, and I ihiCula get some one into trouble. Fir my fears had not gone beyond thinking that it was Sarah cr one cf the other servants who â€" perhaps wishing to give me a fright, per- haps cnly all but caught in the untimely en- joyment of one of my easy-chaits â€" anxious t j escape detection, had blown out my candle, hoping to slip cut in the dark unheard. However, I got back safely to the bottom of the staircase without seeing or hearing anything, and I was creeping akng the pass- age when I caught the first laint sound of voices. I stopped, then went on again softly, while the sounds became plainer, ard I found that they proceeded from Mr. Rayners study, the door of which I had to pats. I discovered by the thin tlaread of light it let out upon the passage that this door was ajar, at the same moment that I recognised Sarah's voice. She was speaking in a low sullen tone, and, as I drew nearer, I was arrested half against my will by words which seemed to apply to myself â€" "Against the stupid baby-face of a chit hardly out of the nursery herself. Governess indeed 1" "Is that all you have to say " said Mr. Rayner very low, but in his coldest, most cutting tone. " Tbat'aâ€" that's all I have to say," said Sarah, with a choking sound in her voice. The woman was evidently onhapp I al- most pitied her. " Then the matter is easily settled. Y'ou can go." "I can go! I go Do you know what you're saymg Do you think you could re- place me as easily as you can such as her " said she, forgetting all feepect due to her master, as her voice, stUl low, trembled with rage, " That is my affair. You wished me to cbooae between the services of an unpaid governras and those of an overpaid servant. I have chosen." Overpaid 1 My services overpaid I My of the fi«t f ig'at ot stairs, ard walked softly services ban't be overpaid " she hisEed ont. " Ab long as you joined discretion to your undoubted good quaUties, I paid you accord- ing to that estimate. Now that yon let yourself be swsyed beyond all bounds ot prudence by trifling feelings of jealousy and spite, like a foolish girl, your value runs down to that level. You are eo longer a girl, Sarah, and your position is changed m many ways since then, in most for the bet- ter. If you cannot ac»pt the changes quietly, you had better go." "And you would let me goâ€" for a new- comer " eaid the woman passionately. •'I cannot think of sending away any member cf my household for the caprice of any other member of it, however valuable a servant she may have been " " May have beenâ€" may have been My work is not over yet, and, if I don't work for you, I'll work against you," she broke out in a fury. "I'll " "Xot so fast, not so fast," said he slowly. " You will find that up-hill work when you have to deal with me, Sarah Gooch." He spoke in the hard tone I had heard him use once or twice beforeâ€" a tone which always made me shudder. Then his voice changed suddenly to a genial, almost caress- ing tone. ' ' Zn ow do you think you will be able to get on without me as well aa I can with- out you " There was a pause, Then I heard Sarah burst into sobs and lew passionate cries for pity, for forgiveness. " ^Yhy are you to hard How can you have the heart to talk like that about my services, as if I was too old for anything but money-bargains That ohit, that Christie girl, that you put before me, will never serve you like I've done." "The services of a governess are not the same as those of a servant. That is enough about Miss Christie, Sarah." "Enough and welcome about the little flirt â€" a creature that keeps diamonds from one man in her desk, and wears round her neck a letter from another which she kisses on the sly Oh, I've seen her, the little â€" " "Nonsense!" said Mr. Rayner, sharply. " And what if she does It is no business of mine." I heard him rise hastily from his chair and walk across the room and I fled past like a hare. Trembling and panting, I found my way to the hall table, took out of the box there half-a-dczen matches, and scept guiltily, miserably up-stairs. I had listen- ed, as if chained to the spot, to their talk, and it was only now that 1 had fled for fear of discovery that I reflected on what a dishon- ourable thing I had done. If he had come to the door, thrown it open, and seen me cowering with parted lips against the wall within a few feet of it, how Sarah would have triumphed in the jastice of her hatred of a girl who could be guilty of such meanness And how Mr. Rayner's own opinion of me would have sunk He would have seen how wrong he was in con- sidering the eavesdropping governess tho superior to the devoted servant. I cried with shame and remorse as I stumbled up the turret-stairs, shut myself in my room, and lighted my candle. I did not teel a bit frightt^ned now I forgot even to turn the key in the lock this last adven- ture had swe{ t away all remembrance of the previous one. Whtn at last I began to think collectedly of what I had heard, I felt no longer any doubt, from what Sirah had said about the nature and extent of her services, that she was in reality the respon- sible guardian of Mrs. Rayner, and ttiat, when she spoke of warking against her maj- ter if he sent her away, she meant to pub- lish far and wide what he had so long and so carefully kept secret â€" the fact that he had a wife tottering on the verge of insan- ity. I aid not wonder now so much as I had before at the depth of her jealousy of me. I saw how strong the woman's passions were acd how deep was her devotion to her master, and I began to understand that it was hard for her to see so many little acts of consideration thowerel on a new coaaer which she, although her service had been so much longer and more pai.uful, could not from her position expect. Aud I got up from the chair I hal sat on, trying to torgive her, yet hoping she would go away all the same. As I rose, I caught sight of my desk, which I suddculy saw had been moved. I m'ght have done that myself in my search for the matches but it flashed through my mind that Sarah had told Mr. Rayner that I kept the diamonds in my desk. Bat it was locked, and the keys were always in my pocket. However, I opened it and looked into the top compartment, where I kept Mr. Rayner's present. Them it was in its case, looking just as usual. Then I opened the lower cor-'pirtment, with the intention of reading through just once more, before I went to bed, those two notes I had had from Mr, Rsade, one on that day and one on the day before, about the church-work. And the 'iiit one, the one that 1 ai come with the cicar-box on tiat day, wai not there I A suspicion flashed through my mind which n aie my bnaih ccme fast â€" Sarah had fak- en it It was Sarah then whom I had surprised in my room that evening She had managed by some means to open my desk, seen the pendant, aad, laving tnade a grievance acainst me ^i the fact that I had received letters from a eentleman, had taken the let- ter out and probably shown it to Mr. Ray- ner on some pretence of having "pisked it up," to prove to him by the direction in a handwriting which he knew, that I was carrying on a clandestine correspondence with Mr. Laurence Reade. And I remem- bered that she had al eady taken the first note to Mr. Rayner. Well, if she had read both the notes â€" for they were lying together in my desk â€" she must have seen that they were of a very innocent kind but how was Mr. Rayner, who had not read them, to know this? I was annoyed aad disgusted beyond measure I could have forgiven anything, even her meanness in playing spy while I looked at the note which I wore round my neck, but stealing my precious letter. I shed some more tears at the loss of it, wondering whether she would ever take the trouble to restore it, polluted as it would be by having been read by her unkind eyes. Then I went to bed, very tired and very unhappy and at last I fell asleep, with my hands clasping the note that Sarah could not get at, which I wore in a case round my neck. Perhaps the excitement and agitation of the evening had caused my sleep ta be lighter tlum nsnaL At any rate, I was awakened by a very alight noise indeed, so slight that I thought it must be the work ef of my nervous fancy and my sleepy eyes were closing again, when I suddenly became conscious that there was a light in the room not that of the rising sun. Fully awake now, and cold all over with this new fright, I saw by the flickering on the ceiUng that the light must come from a candle behind the screen 1 saw that it was being carried forward into the rocm, and then I closed my eyes and pretended to be asltep. My fingers were still clinging to the little case; but they were wet and clam- my with horror. Was it Sarah? What was she going to do now? To put back my letter I did not dare to look. I lay there listening so intently that I could hear, or fancy I heard, each soft step taken by the intruder. Then they stopped and from tha effect of the flickering light through my closed eyelids I guessed that the candle was being raised to throw its light on my face. S'ill I had self-command enough to lie quite still and to imitate the loDg-drawn breathing of a sleeping person. But then my Lhait seemed to a and still, for I felt the light coming nearer, and I heard the faint sound of a moving figure growing plainer, until the light was flashed within a foot of my face. I could not have moved then. I was half paralysed. Then I notic- ed a faint sickly smell that I did not know, and a hand was laid very softly upon the bed-clothes. Still I did not move, I had formed a sort of plan in those deadly two miuutes, which seemed like two hours, when the light was coming nearer and nearer to my face. The hand crept softly up, and slipped under the bed-clothes close to my chin, till it touched my fingers clutching the little leathern case. Ic tried to disengage them but my clasp on my treasure was like grim death. Then the hand was softly withdrawn. I heard the drawing of a cork, I smelt the faint smell more strongly, and a handkerchief wet with some sickening, suffocating stuff was thrown lightly over my face. Then I started up with a shriek as loud and piercing as my lungs could give, tore the handkerchief from my face, and con- fronted Sarah, who drew back, her dark face livid with anger, but without uttering a sound. In her hand she held a little bottle, 1 tried with a spring to dash it from her grasp but she was too quick for me, and, with a step back against the screen, she held it out of my reach. Then the screen fell down with a loud cia'ih. My attention was distracted frcm the woman to it for cne mo- ment, and in that moment she made another spring at my neck. But then there was a sound outside which had as many terrors for her as her own hard voice had for me. D Mai Mr. Rayner, caling slarply aad sternlyâ€" "Sa ah, come out here " She siarted then her faoe grew sullen aad def aat, aad she stood like a rock before m3. Again Air. Rayner ca'led. " '^a ah, do you hear me? Come here " And, as if a spell bai bsen cast upon her which it wai \a'n for her to fight aia-nst, she went slowly out of the room, aad I was left alone. Ispiaigfrcm the bed, locked the door, aid fell down a;a'iijtit in the dark aid cold m a pueion of hysterical sobs that I could not rest! ain. Then they died a.^ay, aad I felt my limbs grow numb and -stiff but I lai not power to move, aad I thought 1 must be dying. Then 1 heard a fa'l at the bottom of the afa'rs and a woira I'a cry, aad immediately after a voice outside roused me, (to El-: roNTixcti), The Handshaking Art, President Arthur is said to have suffered so much from the prevalent custom of shaking hands that he has made the sul jsct a study and has reduced it to a fine d.rt. This arc is simple in plan and surprising in eft'ect, but incil'dnsive, A\'hen the I'resi- dent see.« a man coming at him for the usual salutation he stands impassive, with hia hands at his sides, until hia friend reaches him. Then the Piesident, by a quick mcve- nieut, seizes the extend* d hand, shakes it, aud (irops it before the handshaker is faiily aware vs nat has happened. By this dexterity the I'resideut escapes having hia hands wrung uutil the boues crack â€" a process which, repeated sevcKil hundred times a day is naturady painful. President Arthur's plau of handshaking will doubtless be copied without credit by some otiier public men, out not generally. The most of them have larger hands than the President, and have iiot so much to fear a squeeze. For others the method is not cordial enough. Mr. Blaine, though he has a medium-sized hand, prevents its being E(jueezed by seizing his friend's hand in 'ooth uia own, and is thus enabled to do what he chooses with it. President Gar- field used to have the habit, also practiced by some othars, of taking his fiiend's hand lightly, adroitly giving nim a slap on the back, aad then withdrawing his hand be- fore the victim had recovered from hia sur- prise. As no visitor ever dared to slap back, this plan seemed to work very well indeed. It indicated sufficient cordiality, saved the President's hand, and at the same time the exercise of slapping kept bin in good health. MYSTERIOUS I Tlie Terrible Undertow tbat is Sveh.
