CHAPTER VII. One the following morning, as Shell the Is carefully folding in tissue-pape- r Into brought auperfluoua use on the previous evening, Ruby once more buiwta In upon her solitude. I have brought over one of Megs dresses as a guide; and I think this merino ought to make up prettily," she says, unfolding a parcel which she carries, and displaying with some triumph a tiny couon frock and a piece of some light blue material. Shell pauses in the act of rubbing an Imaginary spot from one of the spoons and stares at the articles produced with wondering eyes. "What are you talking about?" she asks, with bewildered stress on the word "are. "Why, I am going to make a dress for poor Httle Meg, explains Ruby in a rather Impatient and Injured tone. You must have noticed how badly the poor childs things fit her? Shaft turns perfectly crimson. You cant mean what you say. Ruby?" she cries In a voice of horror. "You have surely not been offering to make clothes for Robert Ohampleys children? "Why not?" demands Ruby, with a faint flush. "I consider it only a common act of charity to help the poor man when he Is In such dire need of help. "Oh, then, be asked you to set about It? queries 8hell, looking relieved. "Well, net exactly. We were talking about the children, and I remarked that the nu;se seemed to have no Idea how to dress them properly. Of course he objected to my taking any trouble In the matter, but I could see that he was distressed by what I told him. So this morning I went over snd caught the nurse Jest about to cut out another monstrosity, so I just marched off her stuff, and one of Megs dresses for a pattern. tea-spoo- "Wasn't the nura a trifle . sur- prised? asks Shell, in dry sarcastic tone. "She did seem a little put out, admits Ruby, with a quick flush. "I shall warn Robert Champley against thst woman. I think he must he mistaken In her she has most shocking manners. "Do you set up as being a Judge of manners? asks Shell, still sneering. I set up for knowing when people are rude and disagreeable," answers Ruby shortly. Shell, having carefully disposed of her last spoon, Is turnlngly silently from the room, when Ruby calls her back. "Where are you going? she asks crossly. I am going to lock up the silver, replies Shell, without retracing her steps. When you have done that I wish you would help me to cut out Megs dress you are so much more used tfi that kind of thing than I am, eays Ruby, gaxlug despondently at the little dress, which she has been turning Inside out to see how It la fashioned. I am really very sorry, answers Shell coldly; but I cant possibly help you. I never cut out a childs dress In my life. "Nonsense don't be so cross you must do it for me! cries Ruby, beginning to look alarmed. "Of course I quite reckoned on you, or I should never have undertaken such a task. I am very sorry, repeats Shell, In a hard, unfeeling voice; hut I dont In the least understand childrens things. I should advise you to send for patterns or put It out you will get no help from me." And then she hurries from the room, nearly upsetting Violet, whom she meets In the passage. "Would you believe it, VI? that wretch of a Shell has turned sulky," grumbles Ruby, as her cousin enters the room. "She vows she won't help me with Meg's dress, or even cut It out Isn't It disagreeable of her? "What on earth will you do? I know you cant manage It yourself, laughs Vlfllet instead of sympathising she seems only amused at her cousins dilemma "I am sure I don't know. Do you think you could cut one out? asks Ruby hopelessly. Violet turns the little dress all round about, then holds It out at arms length by both sleeves. "Not if hanging were the alternative, she laughs; "It is quite beyond me." But for Ruby it is no laughing matter-team of mortification and vexaforce themselvee Into her eyes. tion "Bah! Don't take It to heart," tries Violet lightly "well send for me. some patterns, and then make an ostentatious show of cutting It out la Shells presence. She wont be able to withstand that, I know, for she hates to see good stuff wasted. And Violets ruse proves successful. For when, a few days later, having obtained some patterns from London, Ruby deliberately begins to arrange them the wrong way of the stuff. Shell Impatiently comes to the rescue, and, having once taken possession of the scissors, wields them to the end. Having cut out the dress, she soon decides to make it; she is a good workwoman, and never before has such a dainty, enticing bit of work come In her way. She feels perfectly safe In her undertaking. Ruby Is scarcely likely to blazon forth her own Incompetence. One afternoon, as she sits at the open window smiling over her work, Robert Champley comes sauntering thoughtfully up the short avenue of the Wilderness. Suddenly Shell, all unconscious of his close proximity, breaks into song. It is a bright, cheery little ditty that bursts from her lips, and her unseen listener pauses amidst the Bhrubs and waits for the end. Leaning idly against a strong youag lilac, he not only listens to the words with an amused emlle, but watches the busy needle flashing in and out of her work. She makes a vivid picture seen between the breaks of greenery, with her brilliant hair, skin, and the patch' of blue on her lap. This is the second time he has come upon Shell unawares, and somehow he takes keen delight in so surprising her her quick change of manner when she Is discovered; alIt, though he cannot understand amuses him. A very good song, and very well snng! Bravo, Miss Shell and please forgive me for listening! 7 he says, stepping up to the window hat in hand, when the . last note has died away. Oh! cries Shell, becoming furiously red; and then she throws her work upon the floor and conceals It with her drees. The sudden disappearance of the patch of blue attracts his attention far more than If she had left It on her knee, and a somewhat contemptuous look steals into his eyes as he comes to the conclusion that Shell Is ashamed of being caught dressmaking. It sets him into a teasing mood. Mlse Shell, if you ever get an offer of jewelry, I advise you to choose he says, with his keen eyes fixed steadily upon the girl's burning cheeks. "Turquois why? I am not going to get any jewelry! stammers Shell, too confused and surprised to find a ready answer. "Because pale blue suits you to perfection," answers Mr. Champley with a meaning nod; and then, intensely amueed at her bewildered look, he proceeds on his way. "Could he have seen my work?" muses Shell, as she withdraws it from Its biding place and carefully shakes out the delicate lace trimming, which has become a little crushed from her summary treatment. "I don't Imagine he could and yet what made him talk about pale blue? In the meantime Mr. Champley has proceeded round to the hall door, and been shown by the trim housemaid Into the cool and airy drawing-roowhere he finds Violet Flower hurled in the depths of a low, cozy chair and engrossed with a novel. "Tell Miss Wilden that Mr. Champley Is here, she says to the maid, as she half rises from her chair and stretches out a lazy white hand In greeting. "Pray dont trouble to rise, laughs Robert, as he hastens to her side. You looked so exquisitely happy when I came In that I should be sorry to disturb you. "I am always happy when I am doing nothing, answers Violet naively. This hot weather la so frightfully enervating that no one in the house has a spark of energy left excepting ShelL You are not altogether lazy you were reading," saye Mr. Champley politely. "Yee I have Just life enough left to take in Ideas as they are put before me, responds Vi, with a lazy little yawn, "though I find It a great exertion holding up a book. You should get one of those wonderful literary machines which one Robert sees advertised, laughs Champley, turning to greet Ruby, who has Just entered the room. I came over, Miss Wilden, expressly to thank snow-whi- te - tur-quo- is, m, . "It Is very good of you to say so, returns Robert, in a tone which does not convey any great amount of belief In her statement; "and I Intend to send over the little ones tomorrow morning to thank you themselves. "I am sure I feel thanked more then enough already," murmurs Ruby, I have been fortunate enough to secure very comfortable rooms In a farm house on Oakmoor, pursues Robert Champley, with his eyes fixed persistently upon the carpet. "The air seems pure and bracing, and I hope that, a couple of months spent there will benefit them wonderfully. CHAPTER VIIL Are you going with them? asks Ruby sweetly. "Yes oh, yes! assents the gentleman with gusto. He cannot conceal his feeling of delight at the coming change; Indeed, of late Ruby's interference respecting his children has become almost unbearable and change which takes him from her immediate neighborhood cannot fall to be greeted with enthusiasm. "It seems such a pity to leave Champley House Just when the flowers are so beautiful, sighs Ruby sentimentally. "I will tell the gardener to send over a basketful twice a week, returns Robert quickly. "Thanks; you are too too kind, gushes Ruby; whilst VI, leaning hack In her chair, smiles lazily at the little comedy being enacted before her. "Oakmoor, muses Ruby aloud, after a short pause. It sounds so rural and nice, only just a little vague. What part of Oakmoor are you going to? "Our farm bouse Is about a quarter of a mile from the village of Oakford. "Oakford Oakford? repeats Ruby. I suppoee it Is a very healthy spot? "I should think so. Oakford stands nearly eight hundred feet above the sea, and there is remarkably good fishing In the neighborhood. "Oh, how I wish I could Induce mamma to go there for a time I am sure the change would do her good! sighs Ruby. T am really afraid you wouldnt like It," criee Robert, looking alarmed. There Is only the most primitive to be had, and and ladies are not used to roughing It "That Is just like you always so says Ruby. In rather an thoughtful, absent tone; "hut I dont think ws should mind roughing it a little, sines the air Is so invigorating. "I know I should mind! Interposes I hate Invigorating Violet quickly. air it gives one no excuse for being places, I lazy; as for abominate them no society, no library, perhaps even no piano! "I don't imagine that there is any hope of our going, says Ruby, look- -i lng blankly at her cousin. "There is no need to regret that fact you would be tired of the place In less than a week, laughs Robert confidentially; "as for Ted and me, it is otherwise we shall have our fishing. Yes, of course. Well, I am sure I wish you may enjoy it, Bays Ruby, trying to look In earnest; and then, when their vlslttor has taken his departure, she falls into a meditative mood, from which Vi's bantering remarks are powerless to rouse her. On the following morning Bob and Meg arrive with the nurse in their little donkey-tralooking very Imwell and pleased with themportant selves. Please, Miss Wilden, we have come and please take to wish you good-bthis with our love, says Bob, striding first into the room and repeating the words that have been drilled into him with a slight frown. "How handsome how lovely! Oh, how kind! she cries; then, unfolding a small scrap of paper contained in the case, she reads the s.'mewhat note enclosed: "Dear Miss Wilden. Please accept the watch from Rob and Meg as a small token of their regard and gratitude. Yours truly, "ROBERT CHAMPLEY." Whilst Mrs. Wilden and Violet are admiring the watch, and Ruby la perusing the note with a feeling of disappointment, notwithstanding the costliness of her present, Meg makes her way to Shell, and, thrusting a parcel Into her lap, cries triumphantly "Dat Is for oo, dear Sell! "Dear Sell looks anything but delighted at the information. "Nonsense, Meg you have made a mistake! she says, so coldly that Meg begins to pout her under lip preparaay - p, y; stiffly-word- ed tory to a cry. "Me havent! she saye stoutly. Dat is for oo pa said bo. Hearing that her parcel Is of no Intrinsic value, Shell condescends to open IL Having done so, a handsomely bound copy of Tennyson's lies exposed to view.
