Ethel sprang to her feet She was to be disgraced before her family by that beggar brat. Mrs. Chichester said in astonishment, "Her husband?" "Yes." replied Peg Insistently. "I saw ber huisband when 1 came In here first. I've been in this room before, ye know. I came in through those windows, an* I saw her an' her busbaud. She was"?

"To whom does she refer, Ethel?" from Mrs Chichester. "Mr. P.rent" said Ethel with admirable self control. She was on thin ice. but she must keep calm. Mrs. Chichester looked relieved. Peg went on: "Sure, she thought I was a servant lookitf for a place, an' Mr. Hawkes told me not to say a word until he en me?an' I didn't say a word." Mr. Hawkes now broke in: "My time is short. Miss O'Connell, it was your uncle's wish that you should j make your home here with Mrs. CMChester. She will Rive you every possible advantage to make you a happy, well cared for, charming young lady." Pes laughed. "Lady? Me? Sure now"? "You must do everything she tells you.

And low I must take my leave." IJe picked up bis hat aud caue from the table. Pes sprang up breathlessly and frightenedly. Now that Mr. Hawkes was going she felt deserted. He had at least been gentle aud considerate to her. She tugged at his sleeve and looked straight up into his face with her bis: blue eyes wide open and pleaded: "INnze. sir, take me with ye an' send me back to New York. I'd rather go home. Indade I would. 1 don't want to be a lady. I want me father. Plaze take me with ye." "Oh, come, come"? Mr. Hawkes began. "I want to go back to me father. ludade I do." Her eyes ailed witn tears. "He mightn't like me to stay here now that me uncle's dead." "Why. it was your uncle's last wish that you should come here. Your father will l?e delighted at your good fortuiie." He gently pressed her back into the chair and smiled pleasantly and reassuringly dowu at her. ^ust when he had negotiated everything most satisfactorily to have Peg endeavor to upset it all was most disturbing. lie went on again: "Your aunt will do everything in her power to make you feel at home. Won't you. Mrs. Chichester?" "Everything!" said Mrs. Chichester, as if she were walking over her own prnve. r>Qtr o+ hap mint- rnofnllv fhor expression was ruost forbidding); at Ethel's expressive back; lastly at Aluric fitting a cigarette into a gold mounted holder. Her whole nature ovit>a cut axrainst them. She made one ( { lust appeal to Mr. HaWUeS: "Do send me back to me father!" "Nonsense, my dear Miss O'Connell. You would not disappoint your father A in that way, would you? Wait tor a month. I'll call on the 1st. and I expect to hear only the most charming . things about you. Now, gcodby." And 15 he took her hand. b She looked up wistfully at him. n "Gcodby. sir. An' thank ye very tj much for liein" so kind to me." Flawkes bowed to Mrs. Chichester and Ethel and went to the door. "Have a cab?" asked Alaric. "No; thank you." replied the lawyer. "I have no luggage. Like the e walk. Good day." And Peg's only a friend In England passed out and left s her to face this terrible English fami- ^ ly alone. "Your name Is Margaret." said Mrs. * Chichester as the door closed on Mr. 1< Hawkes. h "No, ma'am," Peg began, but imme dlately corrected herself; "no. aunt?1 I hep your pardon?no. aunt?my name | is Pes?!" cried sbe earnestly. jh "That is only a corruption. We wilt call you Margaret." insisted Mrs. Chi-1 Chester, dismissing the subject once c and for all. j f Iiut Peg was not to be turned so f lightly aside. She stuck to her point. !a "I wouldn't know myself as Mar-1 garet?indade I wouldn't. I might for-: get to arswer to the name of Mar-jt garet." She stopped her pleading tone a and said determinedly. "My name is c Peg." Then a little softer and more . plaintively she added: "Me father always calls me Pes It would put me ^ in mind of me father if you'd let me a be called Pes. aunt." She ended her a plea with a little yearning cry. "Kindly leave your father out of the conversation," snapped the old lady severely. I r "Then it's all I will lave him out . of!" cried Peg. springing up and con fronting the stately lady of the house. ? Mrs. Chichester regarded her in as- j tonishment and anger. /"No temper, if you please." and she motioned Peg to resume her seat. i Poor Peg sat down, breathing hard. ^ her fingers locking and unlocking, her stanch little heart aching for the one human being she wr.s told not to refer to. . i This house was rot going to hold her a prisoner If her father'.? name was to be slighted or ignored. On that point she was determined. Back to America she would go if her father's name was ever insulted before her. Mrs. Chichester's voice broke the silence: I. "You must take my daughter as your model in all things." Pet: looked at EtheJ. and all her an ger vanished temporarily. The idea of taking that young lady as a model appealed to her as being irresistibly amusinsr. She smiled broadly at Ethel. Mrs. Chichester went on: "Everything my daughter does you must try to imitate. You could not have a better example. Mold yourself front her." "Imitate her. is it?" asked Peg innocently. with a twinkle in her eye and the suggestion of impisihness in ber manner. "So far as lies in your power," re- I plied Mrs. Chichester. A picture of Ethel struggling In Brent's arms suddenly flashed across Peg. and before she could restrain herself she had said in exact imitation of her consiu: "Please don't! It is so bot this mornIn*!** Then Peg laughed loudly to Ethel's hnrrnr nnd Mrs. Chichester's disgust. "How dare you!" cried hpr aunt. Pes* looked at her a moment; all the mirth died away. "Mustn't I laugh in this house?" she asked. "You hnve a jjreat deal to leurn. Your education will bejrin tomorrow " "Sure, that will be foiue," aDd she chuckled. (To be Continued.)

SUNDAY SCHOOL. I Lesson XIII.?Second Quarter, H For June 27, 1915. H THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Ps. ixxviii, 65*72. fl| Quarterly Review?Golden Text, Ezek. xxxiv, 15?Commentary Prepared by HI Rev. D. M. Steams. SH Lesson 1.?Tbe resurrection. Matt. , xxviii. 1-10. Golden Test 1 Cor. xv. 9 15-20. "Now barb Christ been raised H from .the dead." In some respects tbe resurrection of Christ is the greatest fell event in ail history, for had Ele uoilj risen from the dead 13is life and death would have been no benefit to us (1 Cor. xv. 14-18). The kingdom promised 5B| to David needs an immortal man as kin*;, one alive from the dead. Lesson 11.?David anointed king, i Hj Sam. xvi. 4-13. Golden Text. I Sam. Ea xvi. 7. "Man looketh ou the outward appearance, but .lehovah looketh on n the heart" In the rase of Saul God H >?ave the people a man after tbi'ir heart. 9 1m?* tii^nr II.? / h/wtoiiu *i man -iftoi* PTIa 1^1 own heart (chapter xiiL 14: Acts xiii. 22>. the most unlikely, humanly speaking. of all the eight sous, but the Lord's own choice, and Lie is still looking for hearts that are whole to1 ward Him. Lesson III.?The shepherd psalm. ? Ps. xxiii. Goldeu Text. I's. xxiii. 1. "Jehovah is my shepherd." Consider all the shepherd and shepherdess stories and then see the Lord Jesus as the good shepherd, the great shepherd, the chief shepherd and the shepherd who shall yet gather all Israel and feed thetn in a good pasture (John x; Heb. xiii: 1 Pet v; Ezek. xxxlv. 14, 13). Such a shepherd can never let His sheep lack any Kood thing. Lesson IV.?David and Goliath. I Sam. svil. 33-31. Golden Text. Rom. viii. 31. "If God is for us. who is against us?" Truly a fearless shepherd. to whom the living God. though Invisible, was more real than the visible mass of tlesb and blood in the | form of Goliath. Ills great desire bel ing that ail the earth might know that 1 the-God of Israel was the true God and * that His name might be honored and i not reproached. I Lesson V.?Saul tries to kill David, I Sam. xix, 1-12. Golden Text Prov. ! xxix. 2r>. "Whoso putteth his trust In I Jehovah shall be safe." From the day that the women ascribed more glory to David than to Saul. Saul was jealoua j of iiirn and sought to kill him. but God , delivered him not into^ his hand ichap' ters xviii, 7-9; xxiii. 14). Back of It all j the reason is seen In Saul's dlsobedi! ence and in his allowing an evil spirit ; to take possession of him (xvi. 14). | Lesson VI.?Friendship of David and Jonathan. I Sum. xx. 32-42. Golden j Text. Prov. xvii. 17. "A friend loveth ! at all times." Consider how their souls were knit together from the day of David's victory over Goliath until David said after Jonathan's death. "Thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of woman" (II Sum. I. 20). Yet such friendship was but n faint type of the love of .lesus Christ to us. Lesson VII.?David spares Saul. I Sam. xxvi. 5-10. Golden Text Luke vi. 27. "Love your enemies; do good to them that hate you." . At least twice David had Saul wholly in his power, but refused to lay n linger on him to harm him. It was just the same on David's part when he was cursed and stoned by Sbimei; he would allow no one to harm him. but just left him to God. Lksson VIII.?David kin? over Judah and Israel. II Sam. ii. 1-7: v, 1-5. Golden Text. Ps. xxviii. 7: "Jehovah is : my strength and shield. My heart hath trusted in Him and I am helped." In due time the Lord accomplishes every purpose of His. according to .ler. li. 29; I's. xxxiii. 11; Eph. 1. 11. and so David became king over all Israel and went on and grew great, and the Lord God of hosts was with him cv. 5. 10). Just as surely Jesus Christ shall sit on David's throne in due time. Lesson IX.?David brings the ark to .Jerusalem. II Sam. vi. 12-15. Golden Text. Ps. exxii, 1. "1 was glad when they said unto me, Let us go unto the house of Jehovah." The story of the Arli of the Covenant always suggests tho npp?onr'o nt nnri nnil Hia nrr?v??1nn of perfect righteousness for sinful man. I think It the most wonderful type of the Lord Jesus in the Bible. Lesson X.?Nathan rebukes David. v II Sam. xi. 22-xii, 7a. Golden Text, Ps. li. 10. "Create In me a clean heart, O God." A sad lesson on the deceitfulness and desperate wickedness of the human heart even in such a chosen vessel as David. There Is no perfect man In all the Bible story but Jesus of Nazareth, the Lamb of God without blemish and without spot, holy, I harmless, undeflled and separate from sinners. Lesson XI.?The blessedness of forgiveness, Ps. xxxii. Golden Text, Ps. xxxii, 1, "Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered." How great and all sufficient is the sacrifice on Calvary which can put away transgression, sin. iniquity and * guile. Then He becomes our home to dwell in. where we are safe from all enemies and our guide through all the wilderness of this world. Lessor XII.? A prayer for the tempted. Ps. cxlL Golden Text Ps. cxli, 9, "Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me." He { who forgives and saves is able also to keep and to guard even from stumbling. He is able to control the tongue which no man can tame. He Is nigh to all who call upon Him in truths
