rood-screen, and one dim, painted window, partly boarded up, and partly mended with I panes of common glass, Altar, seats, church-iurniture, all were gone—all, save one mouldering scutcheon bearing a faded ' coat of arms and the motto, 'Laungtrey- ' Loyault .' " And now you have seen all," said Miss Savage, when they once more found them selves in the courtyard. "We inhabit what j is habitable of the rest of the house." ' " Butall this part is perfectly habitable,' ' said Cochrane. ""If good Queen Bess were ' to come back to-morrow, you need only light a few fires, put clean sheets upon the beds, and strew the floors with rushes." "I amnotsurethatlshouldliko.to dancea - coranto' with Her Majesty in the Long Gallery, though." laughed Lancelot. " And as for the We3t Wing, yon never venture into that at all now, do you, Bridget ?" " We have used one of the ground-floor rooms occasionally, sir, as an apple chamber," replied Mrs Bridget; but the West Wing isn't harbour." "I doubt if any part of The Grange is really'harbour," gaidMissVavage, smiling. " I feel as if it would all topple down some day, like a house of cards. But you must now come and see my aunt." CHAPTER XX. OLD MISSMNGTBEY. Old Miss Langtrey received her visitors in one of the rooms with the lantern-like bay windows that had been "Pepayred in the Year of Oure Lord MDLIX"-a room like the inside of a box, panelled, ceiled, and floored with old black oak ; furnished with grim old furniture as ancient, apparently, as the house itself; and bare of everything in the way of rugs or carpet ing. The logs on the hearth were unlighted, and the room smelt cold and damp, as if^it had not been opened for months. The window, with its tiny leaded panes and a great patch of old heraldic stained glass let into the centre casement, admitted very little light, and looked out upon the court yard. It was a room cheerful on the whole as a family vault. ■ Ushered into this dreary twilight, Coch rane found himself in the act of being pre sented to a hostess of whom he at first saw no more than a vague outline in the darkest corner of the room. '■ Sir," said a thin hard voice, "you are welcome. Bo pleased to [sit. Lancelot Brackenbury, you are becoming quite a stranger." "I accept that as a compliment, dear Miss Langtrey," replied |Lancelot, taking a seat near her. "I mean no compliment," said Miss Langtrey. Cochranc's eyes wero now getting accus tomed to the darkness, aud the vague out line had now resolved itself into a little white-haired old lady with brilliant black eyes, sitting bolt upright, with her hands folded primly in her lap, and her fpot on a stool. Sho was dressed in somc|kii 4 ofstiff faded brocade, and wore upon, her head a simple cap of plain muslin. All this he saw and noted ; but it wns her eyes, her keen, vivacious, black eyes, that chiefly arrested his attention. It would be very unpleasant he thought, to meet those eyes blazing with anger; and that th»v could blaze, and blaze fiercely, upon occasion, he did not doubt. She turned them next upon himself ■« My neico tells me that you aro staying at Old Court, Mr Cochrane," she said. " How do you like living like an owl among the ruins ?' Cochrane replied that he found it quite delightful; and that if all ruins were equally comfortable, ho should desire" nothing better than to live like an owl for the rest of his days. " You must find it very dull there," said Miss Langtrey. " Indeed, no. I never was better nmused in my lite." " That is because he amuses himself," laughed Lancelot. "Be is the best of guests, and lam the worst of hosts. Ido nothing to entertain him." " I object to being entertained," said Cochrane. "The pleasantest host in the world, to my Hhinking, is he who lets me have my own way. Now at Old Court tdo just as I like. I shoot, sketch, ramble about, and enjoy my liberty." Miss Langtrey eyed him mistrustfully. "Praysir." she asked, "are you an artist —or an author?" "Neither, Madame—only a poor over worked Government official " "Whose overwork." added Lancelot, " consists of sitting in an arm-chair and read ing " The Times" daily from ten to three 1" "Ah, you don't know what tremendous tiil it is, reading " The Times " daily from ten to three I Painting is play to it." "Painting is well enough in its way," said Miss Langtrey ; " but I cannot bring myself to look upon it as the occupation of a gentleman." "My dear Miss Langtrey 1" exclaimed Lancelot. " Ah, well, I am an old-fashioned body, and I can't help my prejudices. In my day, artists made pictures, and gentlemen bought them." " Happily for ns, society has at last dis covered that gentlemen may do both," said Lancelot, "It is far more pleasure to paint a picture than to buy one." Miss Langtrey sniffed contemptuously. " I detest these levelling innovations," she replied. " I hear that young men of good family are taking nowadaysto civil engineer ing and coffee planting, and that it is even considered possible for a gentleman to become a brewer. I don't understand it." Then turningto Cochrane :—" 1 never was in London bnt once, and that was forty years ago ; but I remember meeting a lady Susan Cochrane at a party in Portman Square. She was a daughter of Lord Skid daw, and married to a certain Colonel Cochrane of the Dragoons. Was she a rela tion of yours ?" "She was my aunt," replied Cochrane. " That is to say, she married my uncle." "Ay—she ran away with him. It was an unequal match, and her family opposed it; but she was infatuated with him. Is she dead ?" *' Years ago ; and my uncle afterwards married a rich widow 'with fifteen thousand a year. " All men are' polygamist at heart," said Miss Langtrey; glad of the chance of marrying a second wife, if they are so Incky as to loose the first. Yous uucle was a handsome man, sir; but a great scamp. They said he owed sixty thousand pounds when be married Lady Susan." Cochrane laughed. "I really know Dothing about it, Madam," he said, carelessly. "But it sounds so like fact that it's sure to be a fiction." Here Miss Savage changed the subject by bringing out an old engraving of The Grange; and this gave him an opportunity to express his admiration of the house. " It's a curious old place," replied Miss Langtrey; " indeed, we don't know how old it is." "It looks as if it might date from the Heptarchy," said Cochrane. '' It is not impossible. There were Lang, treys here when Domesday Book was com. piled. But'it is going fast to ruin." " I should like to put it under a glass case," said Cochrane, warmly. "It is the rarest old house in England, and worthgoing a thousand miles to see 1" " It is satisfactory to think that you have seen something worth coming for all this way north," said Lancelot. "I have seen a great deal worth coming for—two sights, at all events, that were en tirely new to me ; a coal mine and an iron foundry." Then addressing himself to Winifred, he added : — " I don't ask you, Miss Savage, if you have been down the Brackenbury pit—it is not a fit excursion for alady ; but of course, you have been over the foundry. Isn't it magnificient when they tap the furnace, and let loose that river of fire ? I have done nothing but rave about Schiller's ' Song of the Bell' ever since I saw it. And then thoßo terrific fellows in iron masks who mould red-hot snow-balls ; and tho Nasmyth hammer that pounds the snow-balls into solid massos by Jove, its tremendous 1" He paused, struck by the look of em barrassment in her face. And then he be came suddenly conscious of Miss Langtrey's stony stare ; of Lancelot's cortternation; of a dead uncomfortable silence all round. That silence was broken by Miss Langtrey. " There is a homely proverb, sir," she said grimly, " That warns you not to talk ot the gallows to a man whose father was hanged. It is not your fault that you have talked to us of the gallows. Lancelot Brackenbury should have warned you that his coal-pit yonder is a forbidden topic at Langtrey Grange. We don't care to be re minded of our ruin." Cochrane changed colour. For almost the fiist time in his life, he did now what to say. But Lancelot threw himself into the breach, abusing his owd inadvertence and appropriating the blame. " But then, you see, we are such good friend," he added, "and we have been good friends for so many years, that I may well forget a difference that was made up when I was a boy at school." Miss Langtrey, however, declined to be smoothed the right way, no matter how skilfully. So, finding it impossible to re vive the conversation, the young men pre sently took their leave, and went crestfallen away. " In Heaven's name, Brackenbury, what have I done ?' asked Cochrane, as soon as they were both in the saddle, i . "Stirred- up Hydra, old man, ft ad waked the 8 leepingFuneß,"

■■ ■I am tremendously sorry; but what ia ft ill about? ..' - - ' / _ -.■v.'r.j "Did you never hear of our great law* rait?" "I don't know.' I fancy I have, heard jomething about a law-suit, but I don't re member what." "It's a long story." " Never miud. I like long stories." 'I Well, you know, my grandfather and the old Squire were cronies—such cronies, that when the Squire was hard up and obliged to sell, my grandfather, because he could not bear to buy up his old friend's belongings, went in for only one poor little bit of scrub that happened to lie right in amongst our property—and that hit he bought from old Langtrey in a private way. Well, under that identical bit of scrub, by Jove Iwe hit upon a big seam of co.!_, nearly a quarter of a mile thick, lea til ing away, Heaven knows how far, right under the old house my grand iather was living in—a house that ha . since been pulled down. The Squire was dead before this discovery was made ; and Stephen Langtrey—old Miss Langtrey's brother, you know—went to law about it. That was our great lawsuit, It lasted six and twenty years, and brought the Lang trey's to ruin." " Awfully lucky for the Brackenburys," : remarked Cochrane. " Why, yes-it has been a pot of money to us ; but I don't know that we have been ' much happier for it. Fortune haß plajcd . at cross-purposes with us in other ways; She always does-hang her!" >'■'• >;; . . "Ay—how so?" ' ' !| .:■,'■'• " Well, it broke up an old friendship ; it indirectly caused my father to spend the-' best years of his life abroad ; it changed the course of all our destinies, in fact; and who * l knows whether the well-worn grooves might I not have carried us along more smoothly?'.'. " The old friendship, at ail events, is Bet - on its legs again." ■:■■.*. Lancelot shook his head. '.*--. " An old friendship, my dear fellow," he' said, "is like a piece of old china. It's-1 precious only just so long as it's perfect/ Once it's broken, no matter how cleverly : you mend it, it's good for nothing but to put I on a shelf iv a corner where it won't be too closely looked at." 'fi.A'i " Philosophy,from the * bric-Ji-bric' point f of view I Moral—Miss Langtrey oh the i shelf; not to be taken down or dusted. I should be horribly afraid of that old lady,.'s Brackenbury. She's like the spiteful fairy of the story-books." "I 'am ' afraid of her,"replied Lancelot, "And there never lived the mortal man . who wasn't afraid of her, except my father.* ** Cochrane would have likal to ask why, the wealth that would have kept.most men,, athome should have driven I ;tncelot's father ' into exile ; but he felt, somehow, that.this } would be an indiscretion. Then, Lancelot - having relapsed into silence, he fell to thinking about Winifred Savage as he'saw '„ her in the sunlight, with the pigeons." fluttering down about her feet. And tlieii' 1" again he wondered whe he had seen that'".. Bordone, and if it was in one of the private".: palaces at Venice; and presently'his thoughts wandered to the Pizza di San Marco, and he fancied hew well that bright head would look leaning out from one of the upper -windows on the'sunny side of the Square ; and how the famous pigeons would come flocking to her balconyl to'be! ted; and what a subject it would make ior n a painter I .''-' '-,' -■'' Meanwhile, Miss Langtrty, grimly-re-" ioicing in their discomfiture, saw her guests'! depart. •"- '" ""Winifred," she said, when they had crossed the courtyard and were fairly out of »ight, "look on the mantelshelf." Miss Savage looked, and saw there a letter addressed in a crabbed engrossing hand. " From Fawcett and Clarke J" she asked. "Yet; from Fawcett and Clarke. Read , it." She opened it, having read it, went > over and knelt down beside the old .lady's ■„ chair. •: '"■-</• " Well," said Miss Langtrey, querulously . " what do you think of it ?" : .; '•I think it is a hard,! unfeeling letter; •» but—but, dear Aunt Hester, what they: write is no longer of any consequence. . " No, indeed ! Nothing matters, now. , The sooner it is all over, the better/ "Not so, dear 1 I mean that they cannot j hurt us any more—that they shall net take The Grange away from you 1 Fortune, tired • of persecuting us, has done a good turn at' last. , : <hA- Miss Langtrey straightened herself iv her chair. "What do you mean, Winifred?" she.; said, frowning, "Has Lancelot Bracken-,• bury taken the liberty—" " Lancelot came over to-day on purpose > to tell me something," interrupted Miss Savage, hurriedly. "He could not tell me y before-not till he proved the will. But, oh, dear Auntie, Cuthbert—poor Cuthbert I —has left me twelve thoueand pounds ?" «j m Miss Langtrey looked at her niece'in i silence.

"lam * truly'their bitter enemy, as they , were your uncle's bitter enemies and evil advisers. I will maintain no show of civility towards them, and write no meaningless phrases. Is it ready? Head it over tome.", Winifred read it over; and Miss langtrey signed it iv an angular hand, every letter of which was as thin and upright as herself. "I never wrote my name with so much satisfaction," the said, as she gave back the' pen. ,-■■:•■ :i "And we owe it to Cuthbert—poor, , generous Cuthbert I" Miss Langtrey drew her lips together- and shook her head.

The advsntagos of these improvements ar» Obvious, the oise, whioh never need bo opened in winding, is made air tight and dust-light, thus preserving much longer the floidity of tho oil, add greatly pro longing tho intervals betweon the necessary cleaning of tho watoh.
