It was not ntrange, however, that the (ublic were puzzled when Maud Oakley had had to confess to Miss Grayson that she had no very distinct idea whether her sister Geraldine or herself was pre ferred by the man to whom rlie had un reservedly lost her heart, though she ad mitted she had her fears. "Geraldine has Dr. Coverdale," said Maud. "She would be quite happy with him." "Quite 8o,"sa:d Miss Gravson. "It never rains but it pours." Maud wondertd whether it had ever "loured" with suitors in Miss Gray- sou s young days and said nothinsr. Can't we make Dr. CorrrJale pro pose to her.' said Miss Grays-.h.

But they probably incljded the dispensation of trahstantial justice with lavish hand to tn:; :ry swarthy fellow subjects, and the i.itruciion of th? male portion of them l.i the ue of obsolete weapons and t'-ie i-volutious of an in. proved drill. The climate w-.ii, every r.,se has its j t.iom, and Government House and his feoc-.t-ty would reconcile Geraldine tak le.v to bursting thermometer and a diet of quinine. She could have her sister to t-.:y with her if 6:ie felt lonely. He was quite fund of M ind, though of course sh- li-l not care f r him. Did eLe not al ways retire when he came to tea and lea ve him alone with her elder sister, and l-..:ys refuse to jrtve faiin more ibsn four dances iu one eveaing? But Ger ul l:ue was different. Dr. Coverdale would do very veU f.- Mind when Gerau'iite was pone. There she was Mau i, t..,t GenJ.-iu? taniing on the top fc-.ep waiting fr him as he almost ran up the garden waik. "How do you doT t.he sail shvlv as sne ns'uervd him into the drawing room. i wni go and u-Il Geraldine you are ii re. He was delighted. Could anvtliin- Lave Wvn more thoughtful?

"I meant to t'.i Geraldine the new? Erst, but there's no harm in beginning with her." So he began, pulling out his official letter to show bir. "1 have come. ilis Oaklev, to tell you t.-iue news and asi von to con T-it-tl.ite .jc." " 3 lau . be exclaimed, "are thL'aiftd to be mar" you "Oh, Dor he aniwered, "not exactly that is, not yet iu lact I in tan cot exactly." And he got very red, and so, curiously enough, did she. She looked very pretty blushing, and with her lower lip quiver ing a little. Geraldiae. was cot so pretty as Maud, he admitted to himself as 1.0 looked at her; but so ranch the better. Geraldine would be all the k-ss likely to fiirt, if, that is, there was any one at Government House to flirt with. "Ko." he said; -it's toe appointment I told you tor was it your tister?) my uncle was trying to get for me the very thing I have been wanting." And he proceeded to paint the charms of the new career opening before him in glowing colors. He Baid nothing about the quinine. When he came to an end of all the details she was sitting, with an expression of deep interest, looking at him, and he felt that Lad she only been Geraldine the very moment would have arrived that precise opportunity, not always easy to obtain, particularly in a small villa. "And so," he said, feeling he must bring his tale to a con clusion and give her an excuse for going to fetch her sister "and so, Miss Oak ley, I leave Buntiorough very soon, and have come to say goodby." "Good g'Xid boohoo!" She did not hit the precise note which bad startled Ms Grayson's visitor, but the effect on hha was even more electri fying. "My God!" he murmured. "Boo boo, boo hoo-o!" And she buried her head in the sofa cushions. For a minute he sail nothing; his first inarticulate entreaty to her died on his lips before hc-r storm of grief, so he bit his mustache iu silence. Then the front door slammed. Miss Geraldine Oakley was going out for a walk, totally un aware of Lis arrival. Could he stop her? He could hardly open the window and shout. He moved toward the draw ing ro m door, but he had to pass the sofa, and as he did so the girl on it rose, as if she, too, half dazed, was seeking a way of escape, and as tueir liands met on the door handl-j she tank sobbing into his arms. "Don't, don't!'' she whispered, hardly articulating, but he was doing nothing from which he could desist, for he could scarcely let her drop tin the floor. "Good God!'' said Captain Jumpisoa again; "will no one come?" But the bouse was still, an! he reflected that perhaps it was as well that no one should come in at that precise juncture at all events, not without warning and so there was another pause, broken only by her sobs. Ha could see her sis ter through the muslin blinds; she was looking over the g trdtn gate talking to Some one. Would she change her mind and bring whoever it was in to tea? If the did Maul Would surely hear them entering the house and retreat. But Geraldtue stood talking at the gate. Only the rector wore a high hat at Bun-boronu'h-Ly-the-Sea and Dr. Coverdale. "Click!"' went the garden gate as Ger aldine passed into the sunny roadway. "B )-.i:ioo! ' It wa3 a very gentle one this time from somewhere near Lis waich pic ket.
