ilieil. lenviti;,' an cutnto of which the
valim tva lUiUtiowu. Sho va a co
quette, ami h.i'l it luat nf niliuirerH who
seldi.in en ii-tnli'il the approval of her
uncle or i:uul. If thev wcro young
Uncle Ezra aaM they wire aniH nml
ought to bo lu tho nursery. If tliey were
old, lioKlhl they bhcmlil be in Himnold
people's home. Coustaueo laiyrlieil at
his invectives, nnil when her undo for
haile this or that man the house she met
him elMiwhcre, if heliait taken her fancy.
Among the ndmircrs who could not
fairly bo condemned to tho nursery was
Colonel Pitblado. Ho had met Constanco
nt a pmall party and had been struck by
her lmtnty and vivacity. With his nsuaj
ctrcuinsiiccliou ho had iuatilutcd inquir
ies leRardinjt her pro'iiectivo fortune.
Prom tiio nskiiluity with wliich lio pur
sued her afterward it may lw Inferred
that tho rcMilt nf tho investigation had
been satisfactory.
Much to hi. annoyance Contanco not
only did notusk hint to tho house, but
begged as n favor that ho would not
come; at any rato for the present.
"You tee, Colonel rithlado," Mid she,
"I have rather taken a fancy (o yon
and 1 don't want to loj.0 you. Now, lny
uncle, who is the best man in the world,
invariably takes it dislike lo people who
pay me attention. I have it presentiment
that if you came to the hottso he would
quarrel wilh you, and that would lo tho
end of our acquaintance."
Tho colonel argued, but it was of no
avail, Tho only concession which C311
stanco would make was that now and
then, bay ouco 11 week, sho would leave
thodoor open nfter her undo had gone
to bed, and the colonel might slip in and
spend a few minutes with her in the dark
in the lull or in the drawing room.
'I know." sho said, "that 3011 are too
much of a gentleman to inak&ine regret
my good nature; any way I think I can
take caro of myself."
Tho colonel's behavior was beautiful.
His speech was eloquent 011 tho subject
of his love, but he rarely ventured even
to press tho lingers nf hi. charmer as
they sat side by side on the sofa.
There1 they Kit one night, and Con
stance, in a subdued voice, was explain
ing her uncle's extraordinary .terror of
burglars.
"lias lie ever linen robliedr'1 asked the
colonel.
"1 lielieve that when ho was a child
burglars broke Into tho houso wheio he
was living and IdllM 0110 of tiio Inmates,
lie was wakened out nf lied by tho sonnd
of the shot . and he lias never got over
tho shock." .
"I can quite understand it," replied
Iho colonel. "There is something iecul
Iarly terrifying in u midnight encoun
ter with 11 man whom you cannot see,
and who has everything to gain and little,
to loso by taking your life."
"Oil!" cried Constance, "the thought
011s me nt times with such horror that 1
am as afraid of burglars as my nnclo.
I think that if I saw one in my room, I
would die of fright.
"I hojie." said tho colonel laughing,
"that 1 would not show tho white
feather. But I must say I do not hanker
to meet 11 burglar ill the flesh."
At that moment n slight noise was
heard outside the drawing room door.
It was tho faintest iiossible creak of a
weak flooring plank tinder a tread. Doth
the tenants of the sofa looked up and
held 'their breath, Avith ears on the full
Btrain. Another board creaked and pres
ently, after a wait which seemed to last
for ages, tho acute ears of the coldnel
detected it muffled treadjon the carpet of
the room in which they sat. There was
a third twrty in the room. He was shod
with wool nnd was moving noiselessly
1 and occasionally stopping as if to ll.teu
, whether he was detected. The long
I expected burglar had come.
Constance fainted silently oil the sofa.
I Tho colonel, in whom the presence of
danger lud awakened his righting in
1 stlnct. roso front his seat and groiml Ids
I wav uouelesalv toward the intruder,
! whom he could not see. He could ljy

oinuiiigaml koiiig.and instinct prompted
him to hold Ida own. He woM latve

for by the fact of a white hot lire glow

circulation except tli.it of Croton bugs t
across the liixir! I sat down in the brass
kettlo nnd wiped the streams of per.pi
ration from uiy foi-eln-ad- a modem St. ,
Bartholomew.
I gna.lu'd my teeth and up't 11 Viholn

I sprang up and rattled the door ouco

but all In 110 avail. I kjck.il at the walls

the guitar case. sin efforts. I might
a. well have attempted to make myself
''""rd from tho gifat dnnseonof Iho Ba-
stairs and ntlered a hollow groan.
"If ever I get out of this fiery furnace
alive," said I to myself energetically,
"I'll let girls and matrimony alone!"
So the time crept away, every moment 1
seeming like an hour, and I heard the 1
sharp little kitchen clock strike 8, 0 and
11), with a keen senation of despair at
every time. Should I never escape? Was
I doomed to be roasted alive? 1
At length the monotony of silence was I
relieved by the sound of footsteps coming
down the narrow stair., and -lob Gor-)
don's voice exclaimed:
"Mary Hannah Kathleen where
the mischief are you all? What's tho j
kitchen ib.ir lwked for? I'lt dischargo
every skin of jou, or hello! thieves! i

And honest .lob fired hi. revolver aim-'
lessly into Hi" kitchen and flung a heavy
chair after it.
"Cordon! stiq hold 011 it's I Tor-'

"Thistledown in my kitchen! I don't !

'But It I. Land I'm nearly dead. Stop

said rather vindictively, for the slender
thread of my patience wasrapidlydiniin
i.hing down to nothing at nit. "Let mo
out where there's a breath of fresh air,
and I'll explain tilings."
Tlie astounded old gentleman led me
up stairs Into the ga. lighted hall, mar

"Now, then, will jou bo good enough
