They weiu snmu considerable dis

A morose Highlander, whom Itex ha 1
recently enr i..-d as hi-i body-servant
and who was now their tmido. ventured
to remark thai they hail l.eiter ha-. ten
to the neavi.-t shelter, tor a violent
storm thri tt"nod.
An t aitat-t look came into Ih-x'3
face, and he said in an midert..ue that

"The very ea r.a-at-i h tid me their

Tho lower rid-tt s of the mountain
were enveloped in mists, the rain pelted
down furi"rt-!y. Jes-io allowed herself
to be Jed blindly on. li'-r pony umbiins
nt every step. Ait-r travt iinj: some
little distance the party came upon a
(piaint. low-roofed hoa-a, with an an
cient fiK'u-hoard s'A a 1 1 r j 1 i 7 noisily over
the rustn: porch. A stupiddookim; lad
came forward to look afiertheir p.-nies,
find Itex h-d Jessie into the stone kitch
en, on one side . f w hi. h were pih d har
rel.J of al.: .i:d Wiisky.
A hard-fc.ilar-d voinan of about
thirty lose, to K'vet the new cmors
coldly, while an old man. who had been
th.7in: on settle, half rose a though
to welcome his truest; but the woman,
his d.riu.uer. r-'Uiclily told him to keep
Li;; s'eat. and not tumble ail of a heap
and frighten th lady.
Sandy laid his hand on the woman's
shoulder and said kindly:
" Well, niv lass. v here s my welcome?"
And she iiusl.cd and ,-miied siobriht
ly'that Je-sie forgot she had thought
her tnrlv.
"Voii're welcome, Sandy," sho said
in lier broad dialect, which we venture
to translate for tho bt-neiit of the south
ern reader, tlieu went on rapidly talk
ing to lum in an undertone, while Jes
sie, to whom their dialect was (ireek,
took oft her drip-pins hat an.1, shook the
raindrop on the spotless lloor. looking
about her t uriously as she d:d so.
Rex strode to the lire and called for a
trla-s of whiskyt the woman hastened
to oliey him. and Sandy stopped to .Jes
sie's Side. aJid said respectfully:
"1 have iirdend the points to bo
tabled, niias. we cutiot tr -t b.i.-k to

t a.ieth'- ram has ri-.cci, and I an
j. ron lise you com fo; tai ile ipi.irt ra here;
it is rou'i'n. but it i.- 1 lean and 1. ne.d."
Ik1 fore Jesa! i.u.M n-pi.' he had left
her to zl her a seat, and .-he anx-ously
vt nt to her cousin and said almost en
treat inwr'.y:
"Hex. must we stay here to-niirht?
Ti-n- i-.. m n if I.o.sibie to auntie: s-hts
will" le so anxious about us, and I
would rather face any danger than re
main in this .pit .-r out-of-tho-wav place

"Saiidy is right. d ar; it is impossible
that w t-can i i mil to-nj.ht. Mv pony

cannot gel away. 1 w iil ask t he w oman
to show you to your mom, and lend
you another dress, vou are wet through
and look ct Id."
Jessie's heart sank strangely as he
left her. that stiange exu
anl looh still
upon his face.
A micoeiit later the w.e in
ealie.l Flora Mac kit;-, came
to show her to a bed-ehamii.

When Sandy entered the room he
paw Jessie standing looking out of the
ouaint window nta.u the mists and
darkness ,.f tho night.
Tears glinted on her long lasl.es; her
cheeks were whit" and her lips drawn,
she seemed strangely anxious and un
1 nippy.
Ilex, on the contrary, looked j., valid
comfortable, smok'ng in the big chair
by the I re. His handsome face was
Lusiicd, his eyes bright with t. vehe
ment. S mdy took in the fuel, and the wom
an t, '.'owed wit h the v.hi.v. looking
curiously at the pictma s.p.o figure in
the yviiidow'-seat.
Jessie's Lead was turned nwav from
them. She seemed l.i-t in thom.'ht. till
lier cousin's voice roused her by saying
merrily:
"Come along, Mrs. Yennimore.
Drink a class of true mountain dew. It
is bound b cure t he blues."
"Mrs. Ye; mi morel" What did he
mean?
Jessie was roused out of her reflec

"Nonsense! What stupid talk! Why

was go. eg to fetch a bottle of
u) nx il. f.vii!i !ity. by tin: reveivnt
home-made wine, when Jes.de's voice
commanded her to remain win re she
was.
Jessie had grown white as death; her
great, pathetic eyes hla7.edout like twin
stars in a stormy sky.
"Please remain w here you are. I ap
peal to you as a woman to help me. and

bravado, to establish a claim upon me.

Sandy delivered this speech with the j
gravity of an orator. Flora looked re-
ievtl. Jessie fairly gasped; she saw j
l:er cousin's cruel power closing in upon j
h-r hfe and crushing out all hope of
happiness. A despairing thought of 1
Lob came to h'-r, and moved her to '
one more effort for freedom. .
"Sandy, you ar a .scoun.lrt-l; you !

"()!., my God! it is impossible: she i

j "I am not his wife, 1 would rather lay ;

I Flora shook her head and retreated '

on the latch."! cannot iutt rtcre be

lie lighted a cigsr as he spoke, and
looked intently at Jessie, who was h-t

She longed to be alone, free from her

She moved siowlv towards the do. r
