Derwent ever afterward declared that bis mother simply and absolutely fell in love with Don Manrizio at first sight There could tie no doubt that she was as favorably impressed as he could have de sired with the handsome man whose per feet blending of worldly polish and frank cordiality conld not have failed to charm even the least snscepti ble to the effect of manner Sibyl did not hesitate to affirm that she had never before seen so prince ly a man. and that the admirable results of a wound in the shoulder were daily becoming more apparent to her. Don Manrizio, on his part, was evidently mnch pleased with Derwent's friends— with Mr*. Derwent's delicate refinement and Sibyl's spirited charm He was most courteously prompt in paying his respects, accompanying Derwent, who lost no time in seeking him. back to the hotel for that purpose. His daughter, he aaid, would give herself the pleasure of calling later, and hoped - the ladies wonid drive with her on the Paseo that afternoon "For myself." he said, "1 sometimes take ont an English dogcart, and if either or both of yon gentlemen will accept a seat with me. I shall be very happy.'' Both invitations were ac cepted, and waiving Mrs. Derwent’s re newed thanks for her son's great debt of kindness, the stately bacieudado bowed himself away » But if Don Manrizio had awakened en thusiusm in the breasts of these explur era from the states what can be said ot the effect which Dona Zarifa produced, with tier surpassing beauty enhanced by a toilet fresh from the hands of the most consummate artist in Paris? Derwent, who had found that he conid not trust hiwaidf to speak of her, had said very tittle of her personal charms, and so Sibyl's eyes turned upon him with a look of amazement and interrogation which almost provoked him to laughter "What did you mean by not preparing us for such a vision as this?" (be look said And indeed that perfect face, framed by a hut which was a mass of soft, curling plumes, was enough to pro voke the inquiry. Yet to Derwent’s eyes nothing could ever frame it so well as the graceful Spanish drapery in which he bail seen it first, although he was glad that these critical feminine eyes should behold ilia princess in all the bravery of modern picturesque costum tug. Ureat is the effect of wealth. Who does not know this? Yet, to a nature not readily or deeply impressed by the MicideuU of life its wonderful effect is a « tiding marvel which custom cannot le Derwent said to himself that if Dona Zarifa had bean stripped of every accessory of fortune her noble beauty and still more noble character would have been none the lees evident to him. and none the leas adorable in his eyes. Perhaps lie was right—though the test would be a severe one, even for a lover— bnt at least he bad no reason to expect to find snch eyes in others. There was nothing surprising in the fact that Mrs. Perweiit was more struck by the eur- roupdings of the yonug heiress than by her remarkable loveliness. The luxuri ous carriage which awaited them, with its handsome horses, liveried servants, and every appointment perfeot a* if for Hyde Park, bronght home to her more vividly than all of Derwent's words the position and wealth of the people with whom liis good fortnue bail associated him. As he passed the eqnipage on the Paseo, Derwent conld not bnt smile at (fie expression of his mother's face as siie lay hack on the softly cushioned seat, regarding with h look qf peffept satisfaction the brilliant scene of which the was a part He was not surprised that, when they met at dinner. Sibyl’s enthusiastic ad miration overflowed all verbal bounds 'She leairnply the most beautiful area tore that I have ever »W> paid- referring to Zarifu " J really did nothing but stare at ber. for she is a perfect picture of loveiimsa. And wh*n her evee light op. and aba wake* th»t fa* cinating little Rextuaq (ajutation with the Angers, she Is afterly bewitching Ueoffrey. If yon were to swear until you were black in the face that yon did not fall in love with her when VO» were out at their place. I should not believe you.'' "There is no need for me to subject myself to such an nnpieaaant test, then, Sibyl." answered Geoffrey calmly •But I may be allowed to remark that it would be as sensible for me to fail in love with a royal prinoets as with Dona Zarifa She is the greatest heiress in Mexico, and will no donM make a great giltancp-' "Tba*a la a vary hackneyed proverb which It strilfee me might hare an ap plication in thia case, said Halberd "We know what la said of a faint heart and a fair lady. The fair lady ia here. May not the faint heart be aieoT • '•I really do not see.” observed Mrs. Derwent, ‘•why it should be snppoeed tiiat Ueoffrey wonid hecitate to offer himself to any woman, even if she is a great heiress. No one who knows him epnld suspect him of sn interesb-d mo pva. pnd be ha# imfRcieut fprtnnp pf hi 9 Mj dear mother." interposed Der went, with a, gallant attempt to laugh, •the Metier lias not reached the point of even ■ contemplated proposal. I have tbs honor to admire Dona Zarifaeiueed- ingly, bnt beyond that my does not venture." "I am anable toperceh of pntQttOBOR comae in.* add to perceive that Us mother, having been disappointed in her long cherished hope of seeing him many Sibyl Lenox, had now conceived the brilliant idea of an alliance with Dona Zarifa. She would have > hivervd at the thought of a Mexi can marriage before coming to the coon try. and especially before Dona Zarifa*e : Wealth and beauty had dawned upon her. bnt now her imagination was eager ly nt work Tile romance aw well as the enlid advantage of snch a match allured her greatly and it was evident that she would not readily relinquish an idea so fascinating. Derwent, who felt too sick at heart with the hopelessness of his paa- s«on to argue with or laugh at her, •trove to avoid the subject, and Sibyl, who was soon keen enough to perceive this, kindly seconded his efforts. When they parted after their drive, Don Manrizio had said to him: "Come to see me tomorrow morning, i wonid bke to speak with you on a matter of bnsinesa." And Derwent lost no time the next day in keeping the appoint ment. More than ever now his resolve was set on replacing Sibyl s fortune in its entirety, snd he knew that if he per severed in the intentions with which he came to Mexico no one could better di rect him toward the means necessary for bis end than Don Manrizio. "Mr. Derwent,” Don Manrizio said, when they were both seated. "1 have a confession to make, as a preface to a business proposal, ami I will be quite frank in making it. Briefly, then, when yon recovered from your wound in my honse. and when 1 found that the stranger I bad succored as a matter of charity proved to lie a gentleman ami a person of whom one j might wish to make a friend, I reinein j bered prudence, and I felt that before admitting you to friendly intimacy I should know something about you as you are known at home. This d sis not offend yon, I hope?" “On tliecontrary,"answered Derwent, “it is what I should have desired; for, naturally, a man who lias all his life occnpied a distinct ard unquestioned social position is not anxious to appear in the light of a mere adventurer of for tune. And that, as I am well aware, is what I seemed to you. Well''—he smiled slightly—“1 suppose you made some inquiries about me?" “Yes. I wrote to an old friend, a man of the highest (xieition in New Orleans. And this, 1 may remark in passing, 1 did not because 1 needed assurance myself, bnt because it was an alisolntely neces sary step if I was to help you in a busi ness point of view Well, my friend’s reply was so flattering that some day I will show it to you. Only one thing in his letter puzzles me a little. After speaking of yonr social ]K>i<ition and your personal character in the highest terms lie mentions that you have recently in herited from your father a large estate. Yet notwithstanding this, am I mistaken in believing that yon have come to Mexico to make money in rather peril ous ventures?" “You are not mistaken," Derwent re plied. whose resolution to be perfectly candid was taken with a quickness that surprised himself. "1 have lately in herited a considerable estate from my father, and I have also come to Mexico to endeavor to make money in ventures which I liojie may not prove penlons. If yon were not so kind 1 should hesitate lief ore intruding my private affairs ui>en yon; but si me you are goisl enough to take an interest in me, I bofie you will let me explain why I have found it necessary to take this step." "You spoke to my daughter. I think, of a debt of honor," said Don Manrizio, whose clear eyes were reading the young man’s face as if they would read his soul "Yes," the latter answered, "and the story of that debt of honor is known at present to only one person in the world besides myself—that Is my cousin, Mr, Halbert With yonr permission I will tell it to you." Then in the briefest manner jxieeible he toll] it The few. simple words were strong with feeling, ami stronger still with purpose, as Don Manrizio, listening with an interest far removed from curi osity, perceived When the story was finished he held out his hand. "1 will do my best to lielp yon. Mr. Derwent," he said And no other expression of confidence was necessary “Now," he added, after Derwent had expressed Ids thanks, -let ns consider the best means of helping you—that is, pf enabling you to accomplish your end jn the shortest time possible. And here pomes in my business proposal Yon Were, i believe, very favorably impressed with the value of tile Buena Esperaiiza? - "I have never seen n better mine,’ Derwent answered. "Nothing is needed bnt the proper application of scientific methods to realise a great fortune from it. Bui | have understood that Senor Barrera will not sell." "He wtH not. but the other owners will. Their shares of the mine have beer, offered to me.

The interval, however, was not long, and when they re-entered the salon Derwent at once perceived his opportmuty to ex change a few words with Dona Zarifa She and Sibyl had been walking up and down the long, splendid room, while Mrs. Derwent sat on the special sofa of honor with Dona Lnisa and talked French fluently Both girls paused as the gentlemen entered, and Miss Lenox sank gracefully into a seat, while Dona Zarifa moved away to where a Vase filled with great masses of grow ing heliotrope stood on a pedestal of puebla onyx. She began to gather a few sprays, and the fragrance of tiie flowers filled the whole atmosphere around her. It was almost intoxicating in its sweetness. Derwent thought, as he moved on toward the lovely, classic figure and the dark, soft eyes with their glance of welcome. “Are yon gathering those sprays of heliotrope for me, senorita?" he asked, smiling. “Thanks; you are too good to answer that presumptuous speech by giving me one. it is delicious—I have never seen heliotrope bloom anywhere else as in Mexico—but, if 1 might ven tnre to say so, there is another flower that I would prefer to have." “And why should you not venture?" she asked. "Snrely yon have learned that with onr flowers at least we are generous.” "What are you not generous with? But your cactus”—he looked at the blos soms she wore in her belt—"is se entire ly your own that I fear you would not .’are to give it to a stranger." "Obi'' she glanced down, smiling and blushing a little, “it is the cacius you mean? Well, frankly. I think the helio trope suits you better. This, as you say is especially for Mexicans." “And may I not be adopted, in a de gree at least, as a Mexican?" he asked. "Do you know that I am going to make Mexico my home for an indefinite length of time to come? And, more than that, I am to be yonr neighbor at Miraflores. Don Manrizio and I are to take the Bnena Esperanza with Senor Barrera, and I shall jiersonaily direct the work. This, yon see, will bring me within com fortable distance of Miraflores." "Do yon call sixteen leagues a com fortable distance?" "Compared to a thousand miles—yes, verj - comfortable i can see you once or twice a month at least I only hope I •.mil not become a dreadful nuisance." "You could not possibly become that." she said, with the gentle gravity and sincerity he had learned by this time to know well "I am very glad that you are to he near us. and that yon are to have tN Bnena Esperanza after all " T owe it altogethei to you." be said gratefully 'Don Maunxio did not tell me so. hut I am sure that hail yon cot interested him in my behalf he wonid never have'thought of offenng me this opportunity " ‘T told him simply what you told me —that you had a u»bt of honor which it was important that yon should pay," she replied "He is very kind, my father and always ready to help every one, so , felt certain that if he knew of anything which would enable yon to accomplish your purpose he would tell yon of it.' "He is more than kind," said Derwent earnestly "1 can never forget his gooil nesa And as for yours—well, language fails me when I try to sjieak of that I can only repeat what 1 told yon at Mira flores—tiiat my life tie longs to yon. And when I say this, remember that i am not using the flowery language x>f compli ment to which you ayp agenstoroed i mean tfls words with our Anglo-Saxon literalness -It is yours by every possi bie claim —yours because you saved it" She lifted her hand witli a quick, de terring gestine, and tie saw her cheek grow pale. "Do not speak of that." she said. "I try—I am trying hard—to for get it." “But i do not try," he said impetn onsly, "and I could not forget it if I won Id It is as I told yon. my life was given to me over again by your hand So it is yours, whether you ever fijjye use for ij or whether yoq have pot And then there is another claim." He paused a moment, conscious that he was on the brink of betraying all he felt, filled with a sense of the utter bopiessnesg of any avowal, yet impelled by a power stronger than himself to sjieak. "Not only my life, but my whole heart is yours,” he said, and when the words were spoken a sense of wonderfnl calmness took pos session of him suddenly He grasped, as if were, more than his ordinary self possession. It was done. At least the now knew the truth, and he need no longer strive to tntor himself to piay the part of a friend while the passion of a lover burned within him “I know tiiat it is nse|eri for me to tpll yon this." he went op. after a minute that seemed strangely long to both—a minute in which he heard the murmur of voices, Sibyl’s laugh, his mother’s tones, and that would always U> asso ciated to the cpd of hi* life lytth the vision of a lovely downbeut head and the bahnting fragrance of heliotrope "1 know tiiat i may even forfeit f|)e privilege of seeing am} being with yon in tbe intimacy whTcb has taught me to know yon 1 cannot help ij if this is so Separation from yon will lie like death but it is better Ilian the effort to restrain niy lit* at|d eyca ffinu telling you that I love yon with an adoration which over whelms me.

Perhaps to the girl who had been sur feited ail her life with words of adula tion this very reticence had ap atfpqp- fjpn arpi power, (t 'wati certainly not such a declaration ns one of her own countrymen wonid have made, but ths simple sentence* seemed to go to her heart more directly for their very aim pllclty.

"Mfe have gone through a little cere mony,” said Derwent, smiling, “and I have received the cactns as a sign that henceforth my heart, at least, is to be Mexican." THK END. LAW CAROS. W- F.
