Suddenly Marina turned and saw the stranger. lie immediately accosted her, and she noticed that bis smile lit up a soniewhat plain face. "Lady Katharine has sent me to bring you home," he said. "Then yoo are Sir Denis. But how did you know me?" "I fancied there could be but one young lady desirous of making friends with such a very rough customer as this north wind." "We are great friends. It is delightful np here. Look at that tossing sea; isn't it beautiful!" "Beautiful!" be replied. But he was not looking at the sea. Lady Raiaarine Dyson watched the pair approach as they came up from the beach into her well kept grounds. "All goes welL" she murmured and smiled. Lady Katharine, desiring a companion for the winter at Thirltown, had remembered her cousin Eleanor's orphan child, and Marina, being only seventeen and alone in the world, had been very thankful to make her home with Lady Katharine, All had gone well till the return of the bachelor squire of Heathcote Hall, who some weeks later startled Lady Katharine by a sudden remark on Marina's beauty. Lady Katharine answered lightly: "Don't loose your heart too quickly. She does not quite carry her character in her pretty face." Was there a covert 6ting in the words? Heathcote put away the fancy as absurd. "Too late with your advice, Lady Katharine. If I ever marry I shall marry that girl." Perfectly unconscious was he of the effect of this speech upon his listener. Possessed himself of no more than a friendly regard for her, and being by nature somewhat unobservant, it had never dawned upon him that she could regard him as more than a friend. Indeed, it would have rather offended his unwordly and quixotic Bense of honor had he known that a married woman, and she the wife of his old chum, George Dyson (who was then dispensing justice in Indian law courts), had conceived for aim feelings nothing short of infatuation, all the fiercer for being kept so rigorously under restraint So he spoke in all good faith, and Marina, standing afar in the sunlight, knew not that fate was weaving into her web of life the love of an honest man and the hate of a jealous woman. The long night hours brought no sleep to Katharine Dyson, but Marina found her next morning calm as ever, and, if anything, a shade kinder than usual; while all there was to show as the result of that night watching was a little note addressed to Sir Denis Beanchamp, which found him at his club, and brought a smile to his lips. The contents were brief: "Come down for a week or so. Attractions saving, of course, my societybest described by a round O, but for one thing, and that a fair thing. As you love me, come, and I promise you shall not be bored." Three days later he came, and Lady Katharine, watching him approach, the eyes bent upon the sweet face which the north wind had kissed into more than it tooch. te would have left her and gone back to Lu old fandiiar tauxtU wititont giving her another thought But she was a hardy httle flower, and. teeing the bravery of her bearing.

Was she afraid of Sir Denis? net words failed her cow and then; Ler merry speech had a trick cf dropping into silence when his hand touched hers ever to lightly. The sea murmured strange things as they wandered together in unfrequented ways. "You love it?" he said, as she staid her steps beside it "It U my world. I was born at sea. Its musio was my slumbering song in infancy, my joy song in childhood, my dream song always" "And shall be now?" Only a something in the voice, the look; only a bent head and lips which stay; they did not brush the fairy dust from the pretty butterfly's wing. Not yet, not quite yet "Happy Marina!" he said; "happy child! My sea sings a rougher song. It is the sea of the world." "You love it?" she questioned demurely, echoing bis phrase and beating back tho riotous thoughts. "It loves me; is not that enough?" She laughed softly. "Quite enough. I am glad you do not love it more." "Who taught you to scorn the world?" "Scorn it? I respect it as a mighty Institution. Do I not listen with due reverence to the world maxims and world stories you and Lady Katharine repeat?" There was a faint inflection of sorrow in his tone as he replied: "Don't let her spoil you, little one. The life song the sea sings you is a nobler one than ours." "As God's world is nobler than man's." She stole away very quietly on their return, and left him alone with Lady Katharine. They talked on indifferent subjects. "You are pleased to be dull, Denis. Are you beginning to be bored?" "Bored? No." "You find Marina Interesting?" "Very." Then silence. Lady Katharine poked the fire to a blaze that she might see his face. It was inscrutable. At length he spoka "I wonder, Kitty, what induced you to ask me here just now?" "Life in Thirltown was not amusing Is not that sufficient?" "Flatterer! 1 might believe you but for one thing. Since my arrival you have scarcely vouchsafed me a single hour of your undivided attention." "You have, nevertheless, amused yourme. self." "Yes. You asked me to take her off your hands for a time, and have taken care to give me every opportunity. You have told her?" "I have not supposed it necessary." You will tell her "It ia necessary.

"Yea, the next" A backward look and glad smile as they moved on into a small boudoir. Lady Katharine fastened the door. Then she drew the child to her. "Marina, I want to speak to yoa quietly. Yon are very young, dear; your ignorance of the world's ways U pretty. Yoa hardly seem to understand thd rule of society." Marina glanced np wonderingly. "You have no mother, dear, and must not quarrel with me for giving a word cf warning. Really, my child. I mmt ak yoa to be more careful, and sot dance quite so often with Sir Denis." Is that all?" laughed Marina softly; "I thought I must have done something very dreadful" But she drew apart while speaking, and shivered slightly. "I have not been with him more than usual, have E" "But this is so public; and, my dear, he is a terrible flirt" "Yea." Then Lady Katharine lost her temper. "Don't stand there so calmly and think you can carry on as you like, and make fool of such a man as Arthur Heathcote with impunity. Bahl you little fool; you have been played with like a doll, as many another has been before you. Ask yonr gay lover when be latt saw his wife.

"I know it" ed Not a tremor, not a movement the agony of the child standing with head erect facing her foe, and acting the lie so bravely that her listener was foiled. She had meant to crush this beautiful little being to the earth; and, behold! the blow seemed to have glanced harmlessly aside, "You knew it? And are yoti not ashamed yon, who pretend to It. so Innocent, so far above the vanities of life?" "Pardon, Lady Katharine, How often have you not tried to instill into me some of the world's righteous doctrines? And is it not one of its first articles of belief that marriage opens the gulden gate to flirtation? You yourself would you bo so very angry if some one were to flirt just a little with a married woman?" The shot told, but Marina only noticed it with a sort of pity. She used ber weapons of self defense with a heavy heart; she longed for escape for death; but her voice never faltered. "It is different altogether," cried Katharine wrathf ully. "A married woman may do as she likes; but for a yocng girl to lead a man on so disgracefully is abominable!" "We have only been amusing each other, Lady Katharine, There is no harm done," said Marina, with a little laugh. "Besides, I have only forestalled my privileges slightly. I shall very soon be married to Mr. Heathcote, and then, yon see, I can do as I like." The elder woman caught her by the arm in a frenzy of rage. "It is false! You are lying to ma You have refused sng-gust- . him?" "No, 1 have accepted him," smiled Marina, "And now I really must ran" away, for he and Sir Denis will be ex"And you?"

A look and a very few words "1 will make myAspportunity." The days passed, and every morning sealed her fate, and Heathcote could. the dark eyes met the sun more gladly, scarcely believe in his happiness. Then, unable to bear more, she rushed and every night the red lips parted in more tender fashion on repeating his blindly out into the night, down to the surging, sobbing sea, out to the cold, name. kind breath of heaven. There Denis Lady Katharine watched her closely. All goes well," she murmured still, and found her, his little sea maiden, whom the north wind had kissed so long ago. at last she made her opportunity.
