CHAPTER XI. "
The Serpent Cornea to Eden.
TWICE since she had become
Lady Cecil had Betty seen the
soft summer moon reueh its
fullness, spread over ancient
Croftlaigb a mantle of silvern glory
snd worts sweet magic in her heart,
even as it had in a wonderful garden
when time was young.
Throwing a filmy scarf about her
bare shoulders, Hetty now stole out tu
the terrace that overlooked the sunk
sn garden where heavy headed roses
freighted the air with perfume. Lean
ing dreamily against the balustrade
ras the figure of a man. and with a
tender smile the girl moved softly to
his side. His hand closed over hers
is, without taking his eyes from the
lilent beauty spread before tbem, he
quoted softly:
"The moon shines bright; In such a nl*ht
as this,
When the sweet wind did gently kiss the
trees
And they did make no noise, in such a
night
Frollus methlrr** mounted the Troy-an
walls
And sigh'd his soul toward the Grecian
tents. '
Where Cresslsi lay that night."
Into the gir''s eyes came a shadow,
ind her lips parted wistfully.
"f—l cannot say back anything that
ffould be pretty and tine." she whis
pered. "Out In Nevada they thought
me well educated—i even went one
•pear to boarding school In Denver—
but I can't say those pretty things, as
fou do, even when 1 feel them iu my
heart. You won't ever be ashamed of
me. will you. dear, even when you
take me among beautiful women who
know all the things 1 do not?"
Cecil, took her into his arms and
looked tenderly into the wistful eyes
raised to his face.
•Sweetheart." he said gravely,
"among the fairest and most brilliant
of all the earth you would be to me as
that moon is among the paling stars."
The girl shivered in his arms.
"Let us go In. I—l am afraid." she
whispered.
It was nt thl« moment that Mr.
Monte Carson, for the second time, set
foot upon the shore of England.
• *•***•
In the Countess I.urovlch, Ctarson
found a ready confederate, for twice
bad tbe adventuress" schemes been no
set by I.ord Cecil, and her hatred af
the nobleman was intense. She still
maintained her country home at Ash j
ley grange, which place, adjoining
Cecil's estate, afforded an excellent
base of operations. Carson was instal- '
led as a guest, his presence being kept :
a secret, while the countess recounolt
ered and laid her plans.
It was on a short roaming expedition
that Hetty encountered the Countess
I.urovii li. who. at sight of her. ad
vanced smilingly
"I 11m afraid I have missed my way. j
Cau you indicate the most direct route
to Ashley grangeV" she said
Betty shook her bead.
"No. I guess not. I don't yet know j
this range very well uiysclf." she re
sponded with the frank friendliness of j
her western land "It lies off this way, |
but that is all I know "
The countess surveyed her with
friendly insolence
"Oh. I see! You are a stranger. A
new servant at Croftlaigh. 1 pre- j
sume?"
The girl's face did nor change, but i
the countess' keen eyes noted with j

"I am afraid I have missed my way."
satisfaction the tinge of added color
that crept into her cheeks.
"I am Lady Cecil, madam."
"My dear child, forgive me!" the
countess cried with perfect simula
tion of embarrassed confusion. "You
won't mention my meeting you and
making such an absurd mistake, will
you, my dear child? 1 am a dear, inti
mate friend of your husband."
"No. I will not mention the incident."
Betty responded gravely. "I am sorry
I cannot direct you to your path Good
afternoon." she added and hurried
away that the other woman might not
see the tears of mortification that she
could no longer restrain.
Smiling with satisfaction, the count
ess strolled through a plantation ot
young trees and joined the waiting Mr
Carson.
"The game is well begun." she said,
"and If I know anything of character
it will be short. That little chit to a
fool, but a proud one."
"1m that maid of Betty's all fixed T
asked Carson.
"Tbe maid caw be depended upon,"
tbe conntess assured him. "This rery
evening she shall play her little part
In the comedy. I will Instruct Lemoine
at once to write a suitable letter and
will wire to town for the actor of
whom 1 spoke."
Kor a long time after she left the
countess Betty wandered miserably,
unable to return to tbe old house that
had sheltered ber now dead happiness.
Her proud little soul had suffered a ter
rible wound. All her vague fancies
had been crystallized into, a sickening
fact—that Cecil was ashamed of her
and since this countess, who was bis
Intimate friend, had mistaken ber for
» servant he was undoubtedly Justi
fied. That, as she was convinced be
did, Cecil still loved her took nothing
from her bitterness, but rather was an
added shame.
As she hurries to» her room to dre99
for dinner .lames, the faithful valet.
Intercepted her.
"If your ladyship pleases," he said,
"my I,ord Cecil directed me to say
that lie would not return to dinner.
He wan suddenly called to Cantlebury
In a mutter of some "ampers of name

Croftlalgh covers, and your ladyship
couldn't lw located before he left"
• "Very well, .lnmes." Betty said, with
a sudden sense of loneliness. "They
need not serve dinner. Have some tea
brought to the library."
James bowed, but with troubled face,
for he loved this young mistress.

Betty slulled.
"Vim will thank the cook. .James

gently and passed on to the old library 1

Bread Puddings
To make bread pudding from bread
that would be wasted if not used in
this dish lias always seemed to econ
omists the height of good management,
but is it any great saving? Let us see.
For a pudding for Ave persons you will
need five slices of bread or at most
three cups of crumbed bread, a cup and
a half of seeded raisins or raisins and
currants, two eggs, one and a half cups
of milk, two tablespoons of butter, one
half cup of sugar and some flavoring.
All this must bake and so fuel must be
counted in. Does not thin seem to you
to be a great quantity of ingredients
to use .just to save a little dry bread.
Let us be honest for once anil say
that, we make bread pudding because
it is always good when finished and be
cause the entire family enjoy it. If
well made, bread pudding is .just as ex
pensive as anything else that requires
eggs, milk, sugar and butter to be
tastv.
A Brown Betty bread pudding is a
dessert tine enough for any table. To
make it use a pint and a half of bread
crumbs or squares of stale bread. Put
bread in the pudding dish and sprinkle
on cinnamon, sugar and butter and a
layer of diced cooking apples. Add
more seasoning, more bread and more
fruit until the dish is full. Let. the top
layer be of crumbs. Bake 'til well
browned and eat with sweet cream or
sauce.
The Queen of puddings is made with
one pint of coarse crumbs, one quart of
milk, one enp of sugar, volks of four
eggs, one tablespoon of butter. Flavor
With lemon and bake in a buttered pud
ding dish. When done and partly cool
KPread with a thick layer of jelly and
on this heap the stiffly beaten sweetened
whites of the eggs and place in the
oven until lightly browned. Cool again
and serve with cream.
The most economical cooks are the
French and they have a bread pudding
that is much like a custard and still
low priced to make. Use four slices of
buttered, stale bread cut in small
pieces. Place these in a sauce pan or
baking dish and pour in one and a half
pints of milk containing three beaten
eggs and one cup of sugar. Flavor with
cinnamon and nutmeg. Bake twenty
five minutes. Eat while it is hot.
If you have laying hens to supply
you with fresh eggs the list of good
things to eat made from stale bread
aud eggs is long indeed. There is egg
toast, called "nun's" bread or "Span
ish" toast, and bread pan-cakes and
bread dressing that we are all fond of.
But bread crumbs mixed with chopped
cold meat and made into croquettes is
new to some of us.
Mince cold meat or chicken quite
fine, add an equnl quantity of crumbs
and moisten all with gravy or with
thickened milk, season. Shape into
small balls or jiate cakes and fry in a
small amount of butter or drippings.
Fish may be used in place of meat.
Tho crumbs and meat and seasoning
may be shaped into a small loaf after
they are moistened, and spread with
butter and baked in a hot oven. Served
with tomato sauce or rich gravy, this is
really a good ws.\* to use left-over meat
and bread.
The best plan to save bread, how
ever, is to only cut the amount needed
for each meal, as the English families
do.
