CHAPTER XXIII—Continued.
"She bollfvoe thnt I forced the Gil
lefipia notes and ruined her father.
Henry linn undoubtedly told her so."
"Yes; and he has used her to get
them away from young Gillespie.
There's no question about that. Rut
I have the notes, and I propose hold-
ing them for your protection. Hut I
don't want to use them if 1 can help
It."
"I appreciate what you are doing for
me." he said qv.ietly, but his eyes were
still troubled and I saw that ho had
little faith in the outcome.
"Your ulster Is disposed to deal gen-
erously with Henry. Bhe does not
know where the dishonor lies"
" We are all honorable men. " he
replied bitterly, slowly pacing the
floor. His sleeves were rolled away
from bis sun browned arms, his shirt
wm open at the throat, and though he
wore the rough clothes of a mechanic
he looked more the ar'lst at work In a
rural studio than she canoe-maker of
the Tippecanoe. Ho walked to a win-
dow and looked down for a moment
upon the singing creek, then came
back to me and spoke In a different
tone.
"I have given these years of my life
to protecting my brother, and they
must not be wasted I have nothing
to say against him; 1 shall keep si
lent."
"He has forfeited every right. Now
Is your time to punish him," I said;
but Arthur Holbrook only looked at
me pityingly.
"1 don't want revenge, Mr. Donovan,
but I am almost In a mood for Justice,"
he said with a rueful smile; and just
then Rosalind entered the shop.
"Is my fate decided?" Bhe de-
manded.
The sight of her seemed to renew
the canoe-maker's distress, and I led
the way at once to the door. I think
that In iplte of my efforts to lie guy
and to carry the affair off lightly, we
all felt thai the day was momentous.
"When shall I expect you back?"
astc'il Holbrook, when wo had reached
the launch.
"Early to night," 1 answered.
"Hut If anything shoi'lil happen
here?" The tour flashed in Rosalind's
eyes, and she clung a moment to his .
hand.
"He Will hardly be troubled by day |
light, and tills evening he can souid }
up a rocket i any oae molests him.
Go ahead, Ijinut' '
As we cleared Flattie Orchard and
eped on toward Olonarm there was a
stlug In the wind, and I.ako Annandale j
had fretted iw-lf Into foam. Wo saw
the stiletto rutllillir pi'Mllj bi'iot'o
the w ind along the Glenaviu shore, and
I flopped the eneine iK'fort «*i ns-ltlt:
tier wake and lot the launch Jump Ho
wavri Helen would not, I hoped, be-
lieve Mi'1 capable of at tempi ing to
palm eft lt< i-allnd on Miss Cat; and I
had t o wish to mult celve her M p,r
ticngcr had wrapped herself iti my,
luaekln' ish and talo n my cap, so that
at the d'id a nee at which we passed she
was not t< cognizable
Sister Margaret was waiting for us
•t Utc <i>uuruj pier. I had been a III i
tie afraid of Sister Margaret. It was
presuming a good deal to take her into
the conspiracy, and I stood by In ap-
prehension while she scrutinized Rosa-
lind. She was clearly Iiewlldeied and
drew close to the girl, as Rosalind
threw off the wot mackintosh and flung
down the dripping cap.
"Will she do, Sister Margaret?"
"1 believe she will; I really believe
she will!" And the sister's face bright-
ened with relief. She had a color in
her face that I had not seen before, as
the Joy of the situation took hold of
her. She was, 1 realized, a woman
after all. ami a young woman at that,
with a heart not hardened against
life's daily adventures.
"It Is time for luncheon. Miss Pat
expects you. too."
"Then I must leave you to Instruct
Miss Holbrook and carry off the first
meeting. Miss Holbrook has been—"
"—For a long walk"—the sister sup-
piled—"and will enter St. Agatha's
parlor a little tired from her tramp.
She shall go at once to her roctn—
with me. I have put out a white gown
for her; and at luncheon we will talk
only of safe things."
"And I shall have this bouquet of
sweet peas," added Rosalind, "that I
brought from a farmer's garden near
by, as an offering for Aunt Pat's birth-
day. And you will both be there to
keep me from making mistakes "
"Then after luncheon w© shali drive
until Miss Pat's birthday dinner; and
the dinner shall be on the terrace at
Glenarm, which is even now being
decorated for a fete occasion. And be-
fore the night Is old Helen shall be
back. Good luck attend us all!" I
said; and we parted in the best of
spirits.
I had forgotten Gillespie, and was
surprised to find him at the table in
my room, absorbed In business papers
"'Mutton, button, who's got the but-
ton!'" he chanted as he looked me
over. "You appear to have been swim-
ming In your clothes. I had my mail
sont out here. I've got to shut down
the factory at Ponsocket. The thought
of It bores me extravagantly. What
time's luncheon?"
•"Whenever you ring three times.
I'm lunching out."
"I«adles?" lie asked, raising his
brows. "You appear to In- a little so-
cial favorite; couldn't you got me in
on something? How about dinner?"
"I am myself entertaining at dinner;
anil your name Isn't on the list, I'm
sorry to say. Muttons. Hut to-morrow!
Everything will I"1 possible tomor-
row. I expect Miss I'at nnd Helen
h« re to-night. It's Miss Mat's birthday,
and 1 want to nitilte It a hupp- day for
her. She's going to settle with Jlenrv
as soon as some preliminaries art* ar-
ranged. so the war's nearly over."
"She can't settle with hltn until
some) hi rig definite Is known about Ar-
thur. If he's really dead —"
"I've promised to ;-s'it' . that; but
I must hurry now \\ III you met t me
at the (Jleiiiirtn hoatlioii.v at eight?
If I'm not there, wait I shall have
otnetliliig for you to do."
"Mt auwhile I'm turned out of your
house, ttin I'' Mill I positively decline
to go until I'm foil "
As I got into a fit idt coat he played
a lively tune oil I lie electric bell, nnd
I left him gi\lng his orders to the
butler.
I was reassured bv the sound of
volies as I pa km id under the windows
of St Agatha's, and Sister Margaret
met me In the hall with a smiling face.
' Luiicbi-'j:. waits. We will a<j oat ut
once. Everything has passed off
smoothly, perfectly."
I did not dare look at Rosalind until
we were seated in the dining room.
Her sweet peas graced the center of
the round table, anil Sister Margaret
had placed them In a tall vase so that
Hosallnd was well screened from her
aunt's direct gaze. The sister had
managed admirably. Rosalind's hair
was swept up in exactly Helen's potna-
dour; and in one of Helen's white
gowns, with Helen's own particular
shade of scarlet ribbon at her throat
and wrist, the resemblance was oven
more complete than I hail thought It
before. Mut we were cast at once
upon deep waters.
"Helen, where did you find that ar-
ticle on Charles Lamb you read the
other evening? I have looked for It
everywhere."
Rosalind took rather more time than
was necessary to help herself to the
asparagus, and my heart sank; but
Sister Margaret promptly saved the
day.
"It was in the Round World. That
article wo were reading on 'The Au-
thorship of the Collects' Is In the same
number."
"Yes; of course," said Rosalind,
turning to me.
Art. seemed a safe oplc; and I
stoered for the open, and spoke in a
large way, out of my Ignorance, of
Michelangelo's Influence, winding up
presently with a suggestion that Miss
Pat should have her portrait painted
This was a successful stroke, for we
all fell Into a discussion of contem-
poraneous portrait painters about
whom Sister Margaret fortunately
knew something; but a cold chill went
down my back a moment later when
Miss Pat turned upon Rosalind and
asked her a direct question:
"Helen, what was the name of the
artist who did that miniature of your
mother?"
SiBter Margaret swallowed a glass
of water, and I stooped to pick up my
napkin.
"Van Arsdel, wasn't it?"asked Rosa-
lind, Instantly.
"Yes; so It was," replied Miss Mat.
Luck was Nvorlng u. and Rosalind
was rising to the emergency splen-
didly. It appeared afterward that her
own mother hail beon painted by the
same artist, and slit- had boldly risked
the gnoss Sister Margaret and I
wore frightened into a discussion of
the possibilities of aerial navigation,
with a vague notion, I think, of keep
lug the talk in the air, and it sufficed
until we had concluded the simple lun
chuon. I walked beside Miss Mat to
the parlor. The sky had cl< a red, and
1 broached a drive at once. I had
rend in the newspaper,', that a consid-
erable both of regular troops was
passing near Aimandnle on a practice
march from Fort Sheridan to a ren-
dezvous at some point south of us.
"Let us go and see the soldiers," I
suggested.
"Very well, Larry," she said. "We
t all make believe lin y are f lit oui to
tin honor to my blithduy. You me a
Ihoiightful boy. I can never thank you
foi ail your cniisid ration and kind
net And you will not fall to find

her head away quickly we wore neat
ed by ourselves In a corner of the
room "I uiu ulraid, 1 am afraid tt
ask'
"lie Is well; quite wt II. I shall have
news of him to-night."
Sbw aiauccd across the i yum to
DOINGS OF A
GREAT STATE
where Rosalind and Sister Margaret
talked quietly together. 1 felt Miss
Mat's hand touch mine, and suddenly
there were tears in her eyes.
"I was wrong! 1 was most unjust In
what I said to you of her. She was
all tenderness, all gentleness when
she came In this morning." She film
bled at her belt and held up a small
cluster of the sweet peas that Rosa
llnil had brought from Red Hate.
"I told you so!" 1 said, trying to
laugh off her contrition. "What you
said to me is forgotten, Miss Mat."
"And now when everything is set
tied, If she wants to marry Gillespie,
let her do it."
"But she won't! Haven't I told you
that Helen shall never marry him?"
I hail ordered a buck board, and it
was now announced.
"Don't trouble to go upstairs, Aunt
Mat; I will bring your things for you,"
said Rosalind; and Miss Mat turned
upon me with an air of satisfaction
and pride, as much as to say: "You
see how devoted she is to me!"
1 wish to acknowledge here my ob
ligations to Sister Margaret for giving
me the benefit of her care and re
sourcefulness on that difficult day.
£here was no nice detail that sh« over
looked, no danger that she did not an
ticipate. She sat by Miss Mat on the
long drive, while Rosalind and I chat-
tered nonsense behind them. We were
so fortunate as to strike the first bat
taiion, and saw It go Into camp on a
bit of open prairie to await the arrival
of the artillery that followed. Mut at
no time did i lose sight of the odd
business that still lay ahead of me.
nor did I remember with any satis
faction how Helen, omnwhf-'e across
woodland and lake, chafed at the de
layed climax of her plot. The girl at
my side, lovely and gracious as she
was, struck me increasingly as but a
tame shadow of that other one, so like
and so unlike! I marveled ihat Miss
Mat had not seen it; and In a period
of silence on the drive hotno I think
Rosalind must, have guessed my
thought; for I caught her regarding
me with a mischievous smile and she
said, as the others rather too generous
ly sought to ignore us;
"Yon can see now how different I
ani— how very different!"
When I left them at St. Agatha's
with an hour to spare before dinner
Sister Margaret assured me with her
eyes that there was nothing to fear.
1 was nervously pacing the long tor
race when I saw my guests approach
ing I told the butler to order dinner
at once and went down to meet them
Miss Pat declared that she never felt
better; and under the excitement of
the hour Sister Margaret's syes
glowed brightly.
As we sat down in the screened cor
ner of the broad terrace, with the first
grave approach of twilight In the sky
and the curved trumpet of the young
moon hanging In the west, It might
have seemed to an onlooker that the
gods of chance had oddly ordered our
little company. Miss Patricia In white
was a picture of serenity, with the
smile constant about her Hps, happy lu
her hope for the future Rosalind,
fresh to these surroundings, showed
clearly her pleasure In the pretty set-
ting of the scene, and read into It, In
bright phrases, the delight of a story-
book Incident.
"Let m > see," she said, reflectively,
"Just who we are; We are the lady of
the castle perilous dining al fresco,
with the abbess, who Is also a noble
lady, come across the fields to sit at
meat with her. And you, sir, are a
knight full orgulous, feared In many
lands, and sworn to the defense of
these ladies."
"And you"—and Miss Mat's eyes
were beautifully kind and gentle, as
she took the cue and turned to Rosa-
lind, "you are the well-beloved tlaugh-
| tor of my house, faithful In all service,
! in all ways self-forgetful and kind, our
I joy anil our pride."
It may have been the spirit of the
; evening that touched us, or on I > the
j light of her countenance and the deep
I sincerity of her voice; but 1 knew
I that tears were bright in all our eyes
; for a moment. And then Rosalind
glanced at the western heavens
! through the foliage.
"There are the stars, Aunt Mat —-
, brighter than e^er to night for your
j birthday."

President Brumby of the Texas
State Board of Health, believes that
every city and town in Texas should
take steps to improve Its sanitary con-
ditions. He says that there is not a
single city or town that has the sew-
erage system that It should have, that
complaints often reach his department
about the Inferior sewer system, and
that It Is time that the people of Texas
pick up in a sanitary way. It was In
connection with this matter that he an-
nounced his desire to retain a sanitary
engineer who, as a state employe,
would assist every city and town in
this state in establishing an efficient
sowerage system and thus save them
the expense of hiring a sanitary en
gineer themselves.
