If Miss Renwyck failed to lie impress ive In tlie great denunciation s ene, the same could not lie said of her j>er sonal appearance. She was dressed In an evening gown of soft, dull black, which brought out the srowy white ness of her throat and arms. In her thick dark tresses a great tiara glow ed and sparkled, rivaling, it seemed, the riviere of splendid gems nliout her neck, while at her breast blazed a mammoth brooch. Fashioned in the form of an eagle with outstretched wings, a shimmering blaze of light, the proud bird stood as an emblem of its country's wealth and dariug. perched bn the Imisoih of a princes* of the free To Richard. In his present state of mind. Harriet seemed the most ra diantly perfect creature yet produced since the world I>egnn As she bowed behind the footlights for the second time to an enthusiastic encore a large bouquet of American Beauties was tossed upon the stage, ami Miss Har riet blushed as she stooped for tills most ap|K)site tribute to her own charms When safely behind the cur tains she glanced at a card attached, which Imre two words. 'An Ameri can." This signature was vague, yet somehow Mtss Renwyck picked the donor out from myriads of gentlemen who might better have claimed the title, and again she blushed as she buried her face among tiie fragrant buds. “How splendid of him!" she wills pored to her roses. “If only be had been my cowboy perhaps—perhaps"— Blit the rest was a secret which the roses never told One by one the guests departed, but not til1 the last of them was driven I away on the gravel road did Richard find an opportunity for a word alone with his ladylove. He was seated in a darkened nook on the front veranda, sheltered from the light by thick wis taria vin“s He bad lighted a cigar and was dreaming, as lie smoked, of how beautiful she w as. w hen suddenly he caught tlie swishing sound of skirts, and she took wicker rocker by his side. “I.ord Cmyland." she murmured softly. "I knew it was you by the smell of your cigar.” Richard was-not a connoisseur as re gards tobacco, and he wondered i lly if tile real laird Croyland’s favorite brand was up to the standard of this doubtful compliment. Miss Harriet continued: “I’m glad I found you alone, for 1 want to thank you for these.” She held her sheaf of roses toward him. "It was dear of you to send them, and It pleased me more than I can say." "Nonsense," he laughed. "No flower that ever grew Is worthy of you. That sounds foolish, I suppose, for many people must have said the same be fore, but I mean it simply, honestly." "Thank you," she said softly, and both for a time were silent. "Miss Harriet.” he ventured present ly. “you are Iteautiful tonight.” lie checked her pleased laugh and contin ued earnestly, "I don't mean that you are not beautiful always, but I have never seen you in black before, nnd" "Ho« absurd!" she smiled "I shall soon begin to think you like all the rest, a flatterer—just a flatterer"— "No, no." he protested warmly; "it Is more than that, believe me. I want to carry away with me forever the mem orv of you as you looked tonight. 1 must leave soon I'm going home "Back to England:' t>lie asked, a tremor in her voice. “No. to Texas." “What?" Richard caught himself Just In time. “Well- er— well, you see." be stain titered, “you have turned me into such a good American that I think of your country now as lieiug quite u.y own I lived down there for nearly a year, you know, and now—uud now business calls me back again." Once more they were silent for a little space. “And are you not coming north again?” she asked him nervously. “It de|>ends." said Richard the Brazen, smiling Into the wistaria vine “Listen. Miss Harriet 1 waut to ask you something. No, it isn't a question It is only a flower. I would like to take just one of those roses to a cow boy down in Texas. I will And him if I can, and I know it will make him happier than anything else in all the world. May I have the rose?" His tone was sad and low. but Har riet's tone was lower still when she answered haltingly; "No; you need not take It to my hero of the plain*.

The alarm once set. not a door or a window could l*e o|>cned without a clamorous uproar from a big brass gong In the upper hall, mid therefore Ucstmore might repose In peace and earn Its name.

Therefore for an hour In the Iten wyek home reigned heavy silence, which was broken’only by the ticking of the great antique clock in the hall or Its soft melodious chime as it struck the quarter hours. Outside a night wind sang faintly ns it tossed a scud ding rack of clouds across tile moonlit sky and the ancient elms of Itestmore swayed and nodded to Its soft caress When Klcbard reached his room he found himself in no mood for sleep He laid aside his dress enut, donned a house jacket, extinguished Ills lights and seated himself In the morris chair liefore an open window. His thoughts were In a whir!.

It was unnoticed by tin* balance of the household, yet to Itlchard far more perturbing than an open, honest avowal of dislike.

A sense of calm was settling upon her. and. though her heart beat faster than was Its wont, she was now In posses slon of her every faculty and could face the danger without a tremor of her voice or hand “Y'ou keep the purse,” she whispered to Iwogeue. ‘'Stand where you are and don't speak a single word.
