I have sent all the ne letters that you have been writing to l.ady Avenel to his lord ship. You will have an opportunity of explaining things to him I un derstand that you are his guest. This will niHke the business all the plcas anter for you." This Is a pretty business. Whv the devil didn't Isa bel destroy the confounded letters when we broke it on"? This person Is a w'nkuin, clearly; an uneducated woman where is Isabel'.' Why doesn't she come down In proper time for breakfast?, oh! confound no thing: What am I to say?

Two years a year before I was married. Verfnon. They were rather strongly- worded letters, Isabel I remember that I thought myself madly in love with you. - It was because I had known you from childhood, I sup- pose. Lady A. I suppose so. Otherwise It have been ' impossible, of would course. Vernon. Isabel! As If I could mean that Rut it was a mistake, wasn't it? And I've been In love several times since then Lady A. And I've been In love once and only once in iny lite and It Isn't with you. my dear boy. Vernon. And now we've got to pay the piper. Avenel Is a fiery man Isabel and perhaps he's a jealous man It's all very well to explain, but It's a thing that may rankle. Lady A. I have been wrong Charlie It is all my fuuli. I ought to have explained lung ago. Hut I I was ashamed. I could not bear to think that even a mistake had been made. 1 ought to have destroyed the letters and told him everything. Then.

A pleasing discovery. What shall you do. Isabel? Lady A. 1 shall tell liim everything' confess all that there Is to confess. Vernon. Come there Isn't mtu-h. I really Hoy and girl business, at the worst. We thought we were in love and we wrote burning letters pity they were quite so burning pity women can't burn things (pettishly). Heavens! What a hea: of mischief would be saved If women would burn things! Lady A. Since I was so foolish as not to burn these letters. I have a picas ant quarter of an hour before me. Now. Charlie, It's n good getting savage, leave me for a few minute with my husband. Co away. You have got a telegram to send, or a let ter to post or something You have gone to the stables flo now. Come back in a quarter of an hour. Vernon. And then? Lady A. You will be guided by cir cumstances. Above all things, re member that you have nothing to conceal and nothing to be ashamed of. Vernon. And you, Isabel have you nothing to lie afraid of? (Exit Vei non. ACT II. Lady A. Nothing to be afraid of? Yes everything. He will learn that the girl he thought Innocent of so much as a flirtation hud received love let ters written love letters with an other man had gone through ull the business before he appeared on the scene at all. Nothing to be afraid of? Kverything everything. If 1 lose his respect what will remain of his love? Love dies without respect. To cmm his love to become that mis erable thing, a wife unloved It is a hard price to pay for a girl's mistake. And I might have destroyed the pack et! No no never! It was a cow ardly thought a base and unworthy thought. Oh! Here he is (Knter Lord Avenel.) Lord A. Uuntl morning, my dear. (Kisses her kindly. Throws his let ters, including the packet, carelessly on the table.) Where is Vernon? Lody A. He was here live minutes ago. (lone to the stables, 1 believe or something else. Let us have up breakfast. (Kings bell.) We needn't wait for Charlie. (Knter Martin with tray, places It on table. They sit down. Martin takes off covers.) Lady A. You need not stay. Martin I will wait on his lordship. (Kxit Martin.) Lord A. You mean, my dear, that I am to wait on you. Hut why send away the faithful Martin? Lady A. He can come back presently, perhaps. I have something to say to you. first, Ouy In his absence. Lord A. Is it something very terrible? You look, my dear, as grave as Khad amaut litis. Lady A. It Is a confession. Kvery con fession Is terrible. Lord A. Then, my dear, don't muke it. ((lets up and leans over her.) What is t!n matter, Isabel? You look quite pale and anxious. Lady A. It is the confession Lord A. Then. I say, don't make It I don't want your confessions, my dea r. Lady A. You must hear nie. Sit down and listen Lord A. Well you have your own way always. Is Vernon, to have the con fession us well? Lady A. You shall answer that ques tion for yourself. oh! Ouy, how shall I begin? Lord A. Hetter begin somewhere near the end so as to get It over. That's the best way, alwavs, with confes sions. Come, Isabel, my dear, one would think you had committed some kind of a crime. Lady A. 1 believe It Is a crime. Hut you shall hear. It's the confession of a situation. Lord A. A situation? Well, let us have the situation. In a play, they tell me, the situation is everything. Lady A. There was once a boy and girl Lord A. Not uncommon. The world Is very much made that way. Lady A. Oh! Ouy, believe me it Is very, very serious. Lord A. tlo on, dear with the boy and girl. Lady A. They were very much to when they were children. aether When the boy went to school they wrute to each other Lord A. Dear me! This Is very rare and wonderful. Lady A. They continued to write to each other Lord A. Did they, really? Lady A. Please do not mock, (!uy. It is very, very serious. How can 1 OI'Y! WHAT DO YOK MEAN?" go on? Well, they wrote to each other after the girl had come out when they ought not. you know- It was a secret engagement because they thought they were In love with each other. Lord A. Lots of young people write to ouch otherbecan.se they fancy they are In love. It Is a common hallucina tion. It is not generally known, but null the private houses in this coun try are private lunatic asylums in consequence. Lady A. (luy I am so miserable and you will not be serious. . Let me take a kidney, my nearest wile, and a cup of teu and then 1 will listen. Sorry Charlie Is not here while the kidneys ure hot Will you take one? or an egg? Noth Ing? A little buttered toast there now silence for a brief space. (Kals breakfast.) Lady A. (Lays her head in her hand and sighs.) Lord A. i Looks up.) Hear child (Kinds and takes her hand and kisses It) you don't look well enough to go on with the story. Suppose 1 finish It for you ( Pushes chair round lases un newspaier unit makes a kind of fan with It to hide his wife's face plays with it as he speaks) es. I think 1 can finish that story. They wrote to each other, this pair of semi-attac hcu lovers.fo r some time, Their letters became ardent, as be. comes young lovers. As for the young gentleman, Romeo himself was not a more extravagant lover, of course 1 have never seen his letters, because, you see. my dear, this girl was the most lovely girl in the world and the sweetest and the best quite the best my dear ( Kisses her hand aguin) quite the best. I say. (Rises and kisses her forehead.) . Lady A. (5uy what do you mean? ri A. you. Ijtdy A except I am finishing the story for Hut but that is my story, that the Klrl was nothimr of the kind. She was capable, though she didn't know It, of the vilest de ception. Iord A. Kon't Interrupt, if you plense, Ijidy Avenel let me see oh: yes they went on writing to each other until somehow some day I really don't know how. they came to the conclusion that thev had only been playing at love and they didn't mean It In the least. Lady A. It was his exaggeration he piotested too much So that the girl begun to ask herselfand she found ou'. Lord A. Yes She found out? Come. I've given you a good llftTnow you can go on. l Miiy A. She found out that I I mean she did not love the young man at all. And I I mean, she told him she had made a great mistake and I Is-gged his forgiveness-r Iird A. Well? Ijtdy A. And he wrote back to say that he too. had made a mistake and we I mean they were to remain good friends alway and nothing more So that was all over. Lord A. Happily. .All over else what would have hapiened to the other man? Lady A. What do you mean? Lord A. Well: there was another man, wasn't there? . I-ady A. A'e yes There was another man Ixtrd A. You see 1 am always right Ijtdy A'. She was ashamed of this stupid love passage and she told him nothing about it. Lord A. After all. a boy am', girl busi ness. What did It matter? Lady A. She ought to have told you i t, I h.4 r m . h ma I u lif r r 3KJrn liv PIT'1 1 S "Pass Your Plate' . 31 I VJ IV J aV maT 'W a4faTBaaaW" JUA IkawaSBWal i smf X ipyyj Prices of all ? ti'sxr r rAurA S " Battle Ax " is up to . date, V Low Price; High Grade; Delicious Flavor.

He thought tho girl wan fresh and inno cent and had never heard any words of love. Lord A. You think he hud that opin ion. Lady A. I am sure of it. Lord A. 1 find 1 must finish the story, my dear, after all. It is your turn to listen. This girl did not tell her real lover that she had made a mistake. But as It was oft with the old love be fore It was on with the new, and as there never had been more than a boy and girl fancy, there was no reason why she should tell lilin anything un less she chose. Her new lover neither expected nor desired any such con fessionHe knew that he had the affections of the girl; he trusted her altogether: and If he had known this thing It would not have made him trust her the less Lady A. But she ought to have told him. Lord A. T doubt it. Hut it is a knotty point. We will argue it another time. Well they were married these two and they lived happy ever after wards. Lady A. No they cannot. Lord A. Kver afterwards, t tell you. Meantime the girl had left some of the letters In her desk: forgotten them, 1 suppose. These were found by a maid whom she dismissed and stolen. Lady A. (Springs to her feet) Guy you know everything, then! Lord A. This woman took the letters and, 1 suppose one knows her kind she tried to get money on them from the man who had written them. She failed; she then threatened to play her last card. She wrote to the lady's husband and offered to sell him the letters. When she got no an swer she waited awhile, then tried once more to extort money from the writer of the letters, and when that failed, she sen-, them to the lady's husband. Is that your story, Isabel? Lady A. Yes-yes yes! Hut (luy How did yuu know about Charlie? Lord A. My dear, do you suppose that when people In our position get en gaged there ure not always other peo ple ready to scrape up unythitig "I CAN NEVEK FOROIVK YOI. 1SA BKL." against either of us? I wns told of your boy and girl business before our engagement had been made known four and twenty hours. Yet you both thought It was a secret. My child, everybody knew. Lady A. Oh! Ouy and I was always afraid to tell you. Lord A. My dear, t have known It ull along, and as for these letters (Takes up packet!. Yes this is the hand writing of the creature could you believe, my dear, that I would stoop to read them? Could you really think that your husband had so little respect for you that he would conde scend to open such a packet. Lady A. Ouy you are too noble! Say only that you forgive me. Lord A. No. For that would mean that my wife had doue something blameworthy. Korglve you. Isabel? (Takes both her hands and kisses her.) Never. 1 can never forgive you believe me. ' (Iady Avenel sinks Into a chair and covers her face with her hands.) Knter Vernon looks around hesi tates.) Lord A. Ah! Charlie? My wife and I were Just talking about you. and won dering whut you would udvlVe In a particular matter. Hut the fact Is, I have made up my mind Vernon. As to what? rd A. Why. as to a certain packet of letters w hich some one has tried to misuse. We need not talk about them. Here they are. and (throwing them into fire) there they are. And now for breakfast. Lady A.
