Archibald Terhune. a popular and in dolent young bachelor qf London, re ceives news that he has been made heir to the estate of his Aunt Georgiana, with an Income of $20,000 a year, on condition that he oecor.ie engaged to be married within ten days. Falling to do so the legacy will go to a third cousin In Amer ica. Th*- story opens at Castle Wyckoff. where Lord Vincent and his wife, friends of Terhune, are discussing p'ans to find him a wife within the prescribed time. It seems that Lady Vincent ls one of seven persons named Agatha, all close girlhood chums. She decides to invite two of them to the castle and have Archie there as onu of tho guests. Agatha Sixth strikes Archie as a handpalnted beauty. Agatha First ls a breezy American girl. Lady Vincent tells" h*r husband that Agatha Sixth already cares for Archie. He gains from Agatha Sixth the admission that she cares for hjm. but will require a month's time fully to make up her mind. Agatha First, neglected bv Terhune. re ceives attentions from Leslie Freer. Four days of the precious t'me have passed when Terhune ls called to London on business. Agatha First, on the plea of sickness, excuses herself from a motor trip planned by the Vincents. Later they Agathp First nicking flowers with a strange man. The Vincents discuss Agatha's seeming duplicity. The follow ing day the party visits the ruins of an old convent. Terhune continues his at tentions to Agatha Sixth. Then suddenly he transfers his attentions to Agatha First. Vincent scores him for his Appar ent fickleness. The last evening of the time alloted In which to becomp engaged nrr'ves. The fr.llow'ng day Solicitor Bums will arrive from London, and the Vin cents nre anxious to consummate the en gagement. Vincent discovers Agatha First and a man with his arm around her waist. Vincent decides that the man must be Terhune. The nex' morning Ter hune and Agatha Firs* are very friendly nt the breakfast table, while Agatha Sixth seems somewhat displeased. Solici tor Burns arrives. The Vincents are anxious. In an Interview of Vneent and his wife the latter cries In desperation n.pr- rho puzzling condition of affairs. Solicitor Borne-? arr?ves. The Vinden''s nre anxious. Will Terhune r?nort an af fianced or a free man? Terhune tells T^>rd Vln?ent that he proposed to Aga'ha **?? *h and that she had refused to marry him. CHAPTER Xl.-Continued. * ?he was only trying you." I replied, taking Dearest's sayso as my authori ty for advancing this opinion. "She had a rieht to do that! Every girl does lt, in fact!" "She ? nearly tried me tco far." he said doggedly. "But I'm sorry lt all happened, end If I had known I wouldn't have risked my happiness for the world!" There didn't seem much more that I could say after that, and I gave up trying. "Well, anyway, it's a deuced shame," I ended. "I must go up and see what my wife thinks about it. Meanwhile you might be trying to persuade Barnes over there," I smiled at the stiff elderly gentleman on the hearthrug, "to give us more time. It can't be twenty min utes to one now, and I'm afraid it would take more time than that to per *? - ~*?*aJn voune Ind*' *?? "^o*"*" ce are letter." -6 speech, _?.u couched in as formal ; phraseology as If he had been address ing judge and jury Instead of poor old Arch and myself, he lapsed into medi tative silence. My friend, perceiving that there was no help to be had in that quarter, turned imploringly to me. "Go up and see what you can do, Vincent," he said, there's a good chap!" "With all the pleasure in life!" I re plied. "And I may persuade her to re lent, who knows? So cheer up, old fellow!" And I left them. "What is all this about Terhune?" I asked excitedly, bursting into my wife's room without my usual preliminary Knock, and quite forgetting William's caution ihat she did not wish to be disturbed. "Bo j ou meen to say that she has really refused the old boy? I thought you said-" But there I stopped, for there on the floor with her head in Dearest's lap, was Agatha Sixth, and I caught a glimpse of a little tear stained cheek that smote my heart with a guilty sense that there were two sides to every question always, and that something here was very wrong. ; ?viii you be kind enough-" began my wife. She had been going to a^k me to leave the room, I knew, but it wasn't necessary. Agatha Sixth got to her feet on a sudden and, with a murmur of gratitude to my wife, slipped past me with averted lace and lied down thc corridor to her room. We heard the door cang lu the distance. 1 looked at Dearest, and Dearest looked at mc. "It's the cruelest thing I ever heard of." she said, speaking first, "and I should think you and your worthy friend would be proud of your work!" Yes, that's just what she said. I never was so taken aback in my life. Dear est spoaking so to nie. Why was I to blame. I wanted to know! And fancy referring to old Arch, whom Dearest hr.d ? vays petted and made even more of thr.n I have, a3 my "worthy friend!" Really, 't was amazin'! "But. my dear girl," I said, "it isn't my work, and Terhune's more to be pitied than to be blamed, as far as 1 can seo! lie's awful unlucky, I'll ad mit, but, after all, making love to Agatha jjlrst on the sly isn't a hanging matter, is it?" "Very well." I said. "Don't answer me if you den't choose, and I'll go fast enough. I don't care to stay any long er. But I think you're making a great fuss over nothing, and I don't see that the misfortunes of otir friends is ex cuse enough for a row between us, at all!" I said this with much dignity and went toward the door. Reaching it. I threw a parting shot as I went. "Besides," I said, "you know you'll have to see me pretty soon in spite of yourself. It will be time for luncheon in a quarter of an hour, and I suppose you Intend to come down?" i [EAD. AC?ATTO?? V c.awYfM corm/mr/t warM/M* She didn't answer, and I went down the corridor and descended the stairs in considerable of a temper, I admit. "By Jove!" I said to Terhune, whom I found waiting anxiously for me at the foot of the stairs, "If I were you I wouldn't waste any more time over A catha Sixth! She and my wife are in league, . should think to prevent you from inheriting ? fortune! The girl cares for you, I know. Dearest told me as much, but they're just contrary enough, the pair of them, to walt until it's too late to get your aunt's property before they admit it to you! Some Quixotic notion about love for love's sake only seems to have so possessed them that they will not actually be content until they've forced you to sac rifice the property. All women's non sense, too, I say. There's no reason why you shouldn't have had both ! But since they're so pig-headed about lt, upon my word, I'd outwit them yet, W I were you!" I was thoroughly excited and sore, or perhaps I wouldn't have made tMs suggestion. "I wouldn't let them cheat me of my rights that way. This ls a chance m a hundred to make yourself rich for life! I wouldn't wait for them, if I were you! I'd go ahead e d ask Agatha First before the time's up. She'd have you in a moment!" "I'm not eo sure," replied Arch, gazing longingly at hiB watch, as if to hold the minutes back by force. His self-confideD<*q was terribly shattered, poor old " I could see th ?. It was a i, too! lt was something I wa' ays chaffing him about, but for .nat, I was really fond of the e" .1 that was so characteristic of 1 1 had always delighted in his childish vanity. "Come, Terhune!" I said, "be a man ! There's Miss Endicott now ! Go and ask her, before it's too late. It's a shame you should lose both the girl ; and the fortune!" Covered the Distance In a But to my astonishment, Terhune, whom I had always laughingly ac cused of being a mercenary beggar, when it came to a question cf marry ing, did not take my sporting sugges tion at all well. "Great heaven, Vincent!" he ex claimed, in a low, tense tone, and turned on me almost as If insulted by the Idea, "can't you let me alone? What do you suppose I want with my aunt's beastly property if 1 have to get along without the girl?" And by the way he said it I saw at once thu* there was only one girl for him, and that when it came to the' point he found. In spite of all his old caution and calculating spirit, that leve was the only thing in the world that counted, after ali. "Great Scotland!" I thought to my self, as I grasped the true inwardness of this fact. "If the old boy Isn't actu ally In love! I didn't think he had lt In him!" The idea occurring to me seriously, ior the first time, only that moment, and I saved up the Incident to tell Dearest when I should get the chance. Somehow I had Deen so busy tryir^g to help Terhune gain his aunt's promised legacy that I had never had time to consider that there might be a sentimental side to the affair. It had all seemed so much like a game to me. it had been such a jolly lark to find myself mixed up in an aifair of such an unusual description, and Arch had so .ong accustomed me to his mercenary attitude toward life, that I had found myself quite readily talking and advis ing in a manner that I would not have thought of doing if I had myself been the principal in the affair instead of Arch. This long explanation I make merely because I could not feel myself lree from a sense of mortification when it had been so abruptly proven lo me that my friend was, after all, capable of the finer feelings I prided mj'self upon. I may say that I even felt re buked. And my respect and fondness for Archibald increased the more with the sense of my injustice toward him. But at this moment, as we waited like two Mr. Micawbers, at the foot of the Btairs for something or other "to turn up," a footman approached and in formed me that there was. seme one te BC3 me. Some one who had Just come J- an automobile and was walting at the carriage entrance in his machine. CHAPTER Xl!. I hurried round to that part of the castle, followed more mechanically than inquisitively by Terhune, and saw on the stoop under the port-cochere, through the wide-open doors, a slight young fellow of about Arch's build, with a dark, anxious face, just relin quishing a long duster to bis chauf feur. But even before I had perceived who it was, my eyes wandered back of him and took in the automobile he'd Just stepped from, with a vague sense o? having seen lt somewhere before. But its owner surprised me more, for lt was Murray Brancepeth-of all people! "What in thunder brought him here?" I wondered. I hadn't seen him in a year of Sundays! "Hello, Vincent!" he cried, on see ing us. "And old Terhune, too!" And he caught our hands in a large, exuber ant grip. Too exuberant, I could Bee Terhune thought, for h9 was frowning, and I must say I felt inclined to resent Brancepeth's familiarity, myself, for I had never known the fellow well, when he followed bis handshake by a great slap on my shoulder. But by his next words it was explained and excused In the same moment, as were tlpny other things that had happened lately. I "Where's Agatha First V he cried. "It's all right now! Miss Simplin has eloped and we can get married." An enigmatical speech enough, I'll admit, and, of course, I don't mean to say that it alone wa3 the means of en lightening Terhune and myself aa to the new turn this rather complicated and stubborn affair of his aunt's prop erty had taken. It was only after a number of ques tions had been asked and answered that we understood him. When lt ap peared that he, Brancepeth, had been in love with Miss Endicott and she with him ever since the first Castle Wyckhoff houseparfy. but that there was an obstacle' to their marriage which prevented their acknowledging their attachment, which obstacle con sisted of the inexorable determination * of Brancepeth's sole relative, a ! wealthy uncle, that he should marry a J certain Miss Simplin, an heiress her? j self, and a neighbor of his uncle's. Little Less Thrn an Hour. Brancepeth had net the faintest in tention of marrying the lady of his un de's choice, or anyone other than the , lady of his own, but was still unable openly to disregard that uncle's wishes, I having been entirely dependent upon him all his life. The young lady in 1 question, Miss Simplin, had now de cided matters for him by eloping with a poor young squire, in spite of a tacit agree nt with her father that she would consider favorably the suit of young Murray. And by thus boldly se curing her own happiness the young lady had at the same time opened the way lor that of Brancepeth, a deed for which I thought, when'I heard the tale, she deserved the commendation of the community. I like good sport But this opinion of mine in regard to Miss w.mplin's escapade did not apparently jibe with that of Brancepeth's uncle, for, as our visitor proceeded with his tale, we learned that he was indeed so enraged by the very act which so delighted us all that when his nephew, emboldened by the tidings of the ' e opement, confided to him his attach ment for Miss Endicott, his aggrieved relative had seized with enthusiasm the chance of proving to the scornful and fugitive heiress that she was un regretted. He only awaited the ap pearance of Agatha First, it seemed, to take her to his arms and enshrine her brows with a diamond tiara that was to Haunt defiance and triumph before the jealous eyes of the poor squire'3 wife whenever the two might meet. This exciting crisis in Brancepeth's romance having developed oniy that morning, it was friend Murray to his machine and on his way to Castle Wyckhoff without loss of time, and we were not at all surprised when he boasted that he had covered the dis tance between his uncle's place at the other end of the county and Wyckhoff castle in a little less ?han rji hour. We had just succeeded in grasping these details of our friend's love affair, though he had not given them in full, as I heve, but had rather sketched the story generally and rapidly, when Dearect appeared upon the scene and the whole wonderful tale had .to be told again.

Immense Mass of Granite In Ohio Cemetery Undergoes Curious Revolutions. An interesting object is to be seen (n a cemetery of Ohio-a large gran ite stone weighing two tons, in the shape of a ball, which Is gradually turning on its axis. During the last Ave years, so it ls said, this ball has turned a fraction over 13 Inches. When the ball was placed in position an unpolished spot six inches in diam eter was purposely left in the socket of the pedestal whereon it rested. A little later it was noted with astonish ment that this spot waa turning up ward on the south side of the monu ment. This curious revolution of the polished ball, to lift which would re quire a large derrick, is supposed tb be due to the sun's action, in the fol lowing manner: The solar rays heat ing one side cause the ball to expand to a certain degree whereas the north side, which rests mostly in the shade, does not expand to the same extent, thus causing the ball gradually to shift its position by turning.
