Mr. Archibald Blyth was not given to early rising.| - Under his fellow-traveler's rule and governance, he consented, coyly enough, to rise at six, or even on special occasions, #6 half-past five; but, leit to himself, he would go on sleeping the sleep of the just till eight, or nine, or even ten o'clock, on the brightest summer morning that ever shone. Thus it came to pass that at 9 A. M. the day following the events last related, when the little world of Cil- lingford was all up and doing, and the birds outside his window weresinging for joy of the ine, and even Mr. Alleyne was engageb. upon his matutinal broiled trout and (coffee, Archibald Blythe was suddenly wrenched from the farthest Ely- sium by the pressure of a hand on his shoulder, £1d the sound of a voice in his ear. { “Awakej arise, of be forever fallen!\ said the fatuiliar, half-mocking tones that he knew so well. '\Why man alive! do you know what o'clock it is?\ Archie sat up gasping and rubbing his eyes. © What|-Debenham-back already ?\ ered. '\Where do you come half-past gi ous walk!! sunshine and color.\ \And you have transacted the business you wentlabout?\ \Yes.\\ \It didp't take long anyhow,\ said Ar- chie, staring at Debenham with all his might. | The other looked grave.. \Look here, my dear fellow,\ he said, after a fnoment's hesitation. \I don't want to ks mysterious with you. Mysol- itary edition has puzzled you--*\ \'Enormously.\' \Well be puzzled no longer. I went to visit my father's grave.

To which ngephamhlwldng awoy, and full, apparently, of other thoughts replied in an abstracted voice, that, sup- posing the Alleynes to be at breakfast, ho had gone straight to Archie's room and seen mo one. , , \ They asked me into tea last evening,\ said Archie. \\I thought it was kind of them-in your absence,\ Here he pauséd for a reply, but ing none, went on. \ We played two rubbers, with dummy. Mr. Alleyne took dummy and won every- thing before him.\ * Ah -indeed!\ \flo for once, you 820, T had Miss Alleyne for my partner. Are you jeal- ous?\ Debenham smiled faintly, and his head. * What did you talk about?\ he said. uWell, lot mo you, for one thing.'* \Yes What did they say about me?\ asked Debenham, looking round with more appearance of interest than he had yet shown. \I must consider. Mr. Alleyne said you were a good-sonversationist, Youre minded him of some famous wit-I for- get who. And then he said that music was a poor profession-he meant in the way of getting money.\ \Ho's quite-right,\ said Debenham, bitterly. - \It's a - beggarly \ profession! What else did he say?\ \He thought you very clever, but -*\ * But what?\ \He feared you were very unpracti- cal.\ \ Unpractical? - Confound his inso- lence! On what ground does he-an ac- quaintance of ten days' standing-pre- sume to base his opinion?\ \ Ab, I didn't ask him that,\ said Archie, drily. \And Juliet-what did she say? Did she agreo with him?\ \I don't know. She didn't say so.\ \Did she contradict him?\ \No.\ \Did she speak of me at all?\ \Yes; she asked if I expected to hear from you this morning. I fancy she thought yon had gone away rather ab- ruptly.\ \Did she tell you so?\ ''No; but I fancied I saw it in her man- ner. You told her where you were going, of c9mse?” , \'Why 'of course? She's not my wife yet-we fre not even formally engaged. I told her I was summoned away on fami- ly business, and might not be back for a day or two. I told you thesame. It was quite enough.\ , Archie looked down and was silent. The gloom and irritability of his friend's manner both pained and perplexed him. Hoseemed out of tune with all things, Ho had called his beloved art \n beggarly profession.\ His indignation against Mr. Alleyne seemed out of all proportion with the magnitude of the offence. Even in the tone in which he had spoken of Miss Alleyne, there was a something which grated upon Archie's ear. True lovers, according to his simple creed, should have no secrets from each other; and, although he did not argue the question out in so many words, he felt instinctively that the young lady had a fuller right than him- self to Debenham's confidence. It was plain that something had gone wrong; but, then, what could that something be? 'You said you had heaps of things to talk to me about,\ he said presently.

Thereupon a long, slabsided countryman, whose legs were some twelve inches longer than his pants, approached the heifer, and, stooping down, commenced handling her teats.
