Tbe only balm to hor anguish » was that it had fallen a t Longlanda, in tha wild* of Yorkshire, and that the _ whele thing m ight be hashed up end haetlsd intd oblivion without any one being any the wiser. Who had gono to liOBflaad to. Teoruit after her super- hamsn expenditure of energy during th* London aeaaon; her only gueet wee O lsudie Putnam,'.her son’s flanoce, w ith whom she was busy planning alterations and renovations for tho new regime. Bnt the moment waa robbed of all H i gavor by this horrible catastrophe; this—what else could she call it?— this drivelling idiocy of tho least plain and most hopeful of her six ungainly daaghtsrs. She would havo kept the ' hateful etory entirely to herself if abo „ eoald, bat her heart waa faffi full for alienee, besides Claudia bad hor fair ■hare of Yaukoe shrewdness—she ■night suggest a brilliant solution of the problem—so, as they sat over a cop of tea in her boudoir, the Duohess opened her new trouble to her future : daughter-in-law. “I'm afraid, Olsudie, dear,” ahe be gan, “ t h a t wa a ra going to have ser ious trouble with H e n rietta.” Claudia waa very fond of tha Duohess, so alto tried to look sym pathetic, though with Lady H e n rietta, who waa wrapped up lu parish work, who wore impossible elothes and did her hair grotesquely, ahe had no sym p athy whatever. “Dear me I” she replied, “ I'm sorry to hoar it; I hope she's not sick.” \Siokl” repeated the Dueboas, \ I with ahe were, or anything half so eansible. The fact ia, she haa been and got herself entangled in a most Unbecoming lovo affair.\ Alias Putnam opened her blue eyes verv wide, and eat down her teacnp w ith a jark. “ My I” ahe exolaimed, “and who on aarth haa been making love to Henrietta ?” The Dueheas lowered her voice. “ My dear,'.’ she said, impressively, “ it ia fir. Qibaoa, the curate. She vows the will m arry him ; isn't it awEul?” •'B a ther awful for thu ourate,\ thought Claudia to hsrself; aloud ah» ■aid: “Havo 1 ever met Mr. Uibson?' “ C e rtainly nut, dear. We do nut invita him here. Ho'a not a gentle- “ T han where did H e n rietta meet him ?” “ Ob, ia oottagea, and at tbe school. You see, ahe likes pariah work, and I enoonraged her— it seta auob a good example — end we've always had a m ar ried ourate before; however, when My. Olbaon came I never thought of obaperoaing her, because, you see, lie isn't a gentleman.\ “Bat I suppose H e n rietta thinks ho will ma|te her a suitable husband?” “My dear,\ eried thu Duohesa, \ehe can’t possibly think so. Why, his father keeps a saddler's shop I He hasn't been to tbe University. Ob, it's altogether dreadful, and she's as oh- atiaete aa a tuple about i t.\ She broke off aa tbe door opened to admit a young man in a shooting suit Ha was a plain, insigniHcant looking personage, with an air of extreme self- approval. '? ’ve ] a s t been telling Claudia aliont this stupid a fiyr of H e n rietta's,” went wa the Dneheaa. \And what does Claudia thiuk about It?” asked the plain yonug man, who wee Claudia's accepted lovvr, aud who deposited hia long limbs on the sofa betide her and tried to bestow a fes and when she oomes back the engage m ent will be broken off. I'll manage it.\ 3he wonldn’t answer any qnestiona. She said ahe thought ahe understood the exaot lav of the land. They m ight leave it all to her. So to her i t was left, and tho next day Lady H e n rietta was p acked off to a m arried consin in Sontb Wales. * The following day, at Lady Heu- riett’s enstomary hour, Misa Putnam walked into the village schoolroom. She wore a dainty blue cambrio frock, which fitted'her as no frock in H e n rietta's lifetime bad ever fitted her. The little boys And girls opened thci eyes wide to look at her, so did tho sohool mistress, and so did Mr. G ib son, tbe enrate, who was hearing tho whole school in its church catechism. \G ood m orning,” said Miss Put- nam, sweetly. “ I am staying at tho Towers. I hsve come in Lady H e n ri etta’s place thia morning. She has gono away for a few weeks, and she would like yon all to know i t.” She looked around tbe room as she said it. and finally fixed her ^ tbo curate a frank, simple face.

This absence is so u d — unforeecou.” ‘‘Guess not,” said Miss Putnam. “ .She isn't ill, she never was better in her life, but tho Doehess thinks a change will do her a world of good.” “ H e r Graco is very cruel,\ mur- m u ic d tbe ourate. \ J beg your pardon?” said Claudia, blandly. “ —< \ I was about to say,\ resumed tho curate, turning to the expectant c h il dren, “ that aa h er Ladyship in nnablo to come this morning, you will be de prived of tho interesting object-lesson she generally gives you. I ’m suro you will nil bo very s o rry.\* 'Oh, they shan't iniss their objc>t- lessou,” said Claudia, still moro blandly. \Pvo promised Lady H e n rietta to giro it to them for her. ’ The curate had been in tho habit of ■taying for Lady H e n rietta’s object- leaaon—to keep order for her, he wonld h a v e * said had the Duchcaa queationed him. So ho stayed to keep order for Claudia, which was quite superfluous, for if her m anner of ad- m inistering instruction was not of a nature to keep tho attention of root less c h ildren, thero wero her fascinat ing gown and her pretty trinkets, not to speak of the cburm of her face, to hold her audience spellbound. And when tho lesson was ovor ho had got into the way of walking with hor L a d y ship along the school lsne a u d through the park. He escorted Miss Putnam to day, because ho wanted to ask how long his liege Lady’s banishment was to last. I don't know,” was Miss Putnam 's reply. “ I suppose she jvon't come back till tho Duchess chooses.” The children will miss her sadly,\ moaned tbo curate. Guess alio m u st make it up to them ,” said Claudia, graciously; \ I ’ve promised H o n rietta to stand as much in the gap as possible.” He gavo hor a grateful look. “ Wneu shall I come aud giro an other objeot-lesson?” she wont on— “ to-morrow ?\ “ Oh, no,” said the curate; “ to m orrow’s geography day. H e r lady ship always gives a geography lossou on Thursday.\ So Claudia put on another bew itch ing frock, varied her trinkets and did her ties; with a geography lesson on Thursday. Ou Friday sho wrestled with anmi, aud by degrees she learned the whole school routine. She also visited, under Mr. Gibson's eseort, one or two of H e n rietta’s old women, who, he thougnt, would feel thom- sclves neglected in her absence. H er fianuo laughed at her. “ I see what you are up t o ,” he said ; of course, it's a clever move, but it's rather rough ou a susceptible) ass liko Gibson.\ “ Why do you call him au ass?” asked Miss Putnam, sharply, “ becauso his father is a saddler?\ “ I t's a splendid opportunity for you to make yourielf popular in the p a r iah, dear,\ said tho Duchess. “ Of oonrse, when you are mistress here, you will like to bo popular among the people.” “ I suppose I shall,” said Claudia, musingly. B u t ia spite of her incipient popu larity sho would not linvo tho m arriage hurried ou ; she was equally deaf to tho Duku's impatience and tho Duch ess's hints. There aro such heaps of things to do and to think of bofore anything can be fixed,\ she said vaguoly wheu her fiance urged the m atter upon her. “ Well, get on with the heaps of things, then,\ ho retorted, \and don't piffle away so much time a t that con founded school.” And Lsdy H e n rietta was still in banishment in South Wales. finally, Miss Tutuam's stay at Lon'glands came to a rather uusatis- tory end, for she weut away to London leaving the wedding day unfixed and tho hangings for the new drawing room unchooscu. The day after her departuro there were two letters for tho Duchess, one from the curate, the other from Miss Putnam. She opened the former first, because she felt more curious as to its conteuts. \M s iiaiu,\ i t rnu, \although Your Graco did not seriously entertain my proposal for the hand <•( Laitv H e n rietta.
