" I should not like you to tbink me curious," pursued lhe Earl. "Wo are truo friends now, and-we contrast each Other. You have every confidence in me, and I hare complete faith iu you; I would entrust to you the dearest secret of my heart. Arleigh, tell mo what I know you have told to no human being-the reason of your separation from the wifo you love. . Lord Arleigh hesitated for one haltminute. . ... , 0 „ " What good can it possibly do t he said; .

"But how," he asked eagerly, *■' could you he so deceived ?' ; " That I can never tell you; it was an act of fiendish revenge cruel, ruthless, treacherous; I cannot reveal the perpetrator. My wife did not deceive me, did not even know that I had been deceived ; she thought, poor child, that I whs acquainted with the whole of her father's story, but I wa9 not.
