Jot re Ruar Kasij Well with miss Leslie. It so happened that while the abominable conspiracy just described was being batched in St. James Street two ladies seated comfortably before the fire in a Losi piously furnished drawing room in Carlton House Terrace were discussing the chief conspirator after a fashion which it May safely be assumed that that self satisfied Nobleman would not have liked if he could have heard it. Lord lady Belvoir was say ing is one those unfortunate men who flatter themselves that they thoroughly understand women. I have noticed that people that kind invariably end by comin g to signal grief. Some times they marry their Cooks sometimes do even worse but they always Mair. Lord Guise has a holy horror a Aud loses no Opportunity telling me so. If it were at All Worth the trouble i think i would marry him myself just to show him How very easily the thing can be Lidy Belvoir was the impression that she could Many anybody and it is not for a very Humble member the opposite sex to assert that she was mis taken. That she had not married Percy Thorold was doubtless due to the circumstance that after full consideration she had not chosen to do so that she had married that utterly disreputable and almost uncivilized personage the lord Belvoir was a proof that her Powers fascination were no mean order. The Power Beauty at Al events she possessed to its fullest extent. Tall superbly modelled and gifted with. A pair Large liquid Brown eyes which were a nature As eyes so often Are to mislead physiognomy its she had shone without a rival during her first season and now at the age for and Twenty was very generally spoken As the handsomest woman in London. Hor Mouth was perhaps a trifle hard at times though rather in expression than in form and it might have been predicted that in another ten years her Nosa would be too decidedly aquiline Ancl the line her jaw too strongly de fined. However As she herself would Bare said it really cannot matter much Whit a woman s nose and jaw May look Uffia after she has passed her thirtieth year. She was believed to be extremely wealthy but As a matter fact her joint re did not reach the figure commonly Ai scribed to it and she lived extra a Ganisy. Of suitors she had no Lack nor was she Likely to Lack them for a Long time to come. But course it would t be Worth her companion said quickly. I Don t understand Why you Ever think it Worth while to make conquests men you Don t care for. The process Musi be very disagreeable for you 1 should think and everybody knows that Yon can do it if you like. Of the process in t so answered lady Belvoir laughing and As for lord Guise he does t know that i Codd do it if i liked. That s just the Are you really to take the trouble convincing him miss Leslie asked with a somewhat disgusted look. Dorothy Leslie was a girl 18, who lad been brought up to London by her Mother to be presented at one the first drawing rooms the year and to Sake her debut in society in so far As society might prove willing to open its Bow to people who had not a great Many influential acquaintances. Whether lady Belvoir ought ought not be deluded in that category mrs. Leslie was not quite sure nor had she Felt Alto Gether easy about the intimacy which Tad sprang up Between her daughter Natl the lady whose Dower Jonse Iva situated near their Home in the North. Dorothy however was Given to Fonn we her oven opinions and choosing her own friends and Dorothy liked lady although she so Little resembled . What was perhaps More to the purpose was that lady Belvoir liked Dorothy. Lady Belvoir May have had Good if so they were not ten perceptible to the Ordinary male intelligence still she May have had them because almost everybody it is conceivable that freshness can Dor and an unquestioning Faith in the precepts and doctrines the established ran Reh May have been attractive to her m reminding her Days when she her had been equally unsophisticated. Any Case she had made a Friend us girl who. It would perhaps be both a gracious and unfair to remark was enough to be her rival. The Standard Beauty seems to vary 35 much and p.? often As do the Points so that it is really impossible to Teu year to year what will take a but oven in these Days when in by clarity feature is esteemed a Charm is probable that few people would said in so Many words that they Dorothy Leslie a pretty us the other hand a great Many people her very much. Her Iron Gray All events were worthy a and her dark hair grew Abun she had moreover a neat Little and a singularly pleasant voice her lady Bel i Don t know most Likely not. I known him for a Long time with w having taken that trouble. Just at i am rather provoked with him Lender the once up my. Engagement a and am Sura Haia hinting As muck to everybody who Wib listen to had he anything to do with miss Leslie asked after a Pace. Not he he did his Percy s Sake persuade me that 1 was going to make a very great mistake but i had found that out without his help. There was a continued lady Belvoir with a retrospective Yawn when i was seriously enamoured Percy. He was a Good Many years younger then and i was very Young in Mere child in fact. I remember promising in a vague sort Way to marry him some Day. Well then " i married poor Belvoir and Percy like a Good Many others was shocked. I did t see much him until i was free again and then he came Back and i was touched by his constancy and so before i knew where i was to and behold i was engaged to my but it would never have done. He is a Good Fello in but he has old fashioned ideas and he has gone in strongly for politics which bores me to death. Besides he disapproved my ways and style conversation and he took to expressing his disapproval which was it tolerable. He pretended to be quite Cut up when 1 told him that 1 had had enough him but in reality he was just As relieved to be set at Liberty As i was. We Are now the Best friends. I think you would like because he is awfully Clever and takes serious views life As Yon do and hip is going to be prime minister something that kind before he Dies. Come and meet him some evening at dinner will thank you i should like it very answered Dorothy. Does he still to dinner with he will if 1 ask him. Why should t he we Are cousins you know and As 1 Tell you we Are very Good friends added to which it would be a Little too ridiculous to allow one s self to be Cut by All the men whom one has been obliged to throw Percy Thorold had never had the least intention cutting his Cousin and she was not far wrong in her assertion that the recovery Liberty had been As Wel come to him As it had been to her. That she and he were the Best friends was however not a trite so accurate a state ment. She had treated him a Little too badly for that and although he no longer loved her he had been in love with her for a great Many years. He was glad to have been jilted but he could not Alto Gether forgive the jilt nor in truth a any Man Likely to forgive a woman who has destroyed his Faith in All women. Nevertheless he accepted her invitation to dinner for the following sunday his chief re Ason for doing so being that he did not want her anybody else to imagine that a was brooding Over hip wrongs. Dorothy Leslie received a so Mew hesitating permission from her Mother to be present at the informal gathering. I Don t quite like sunday dinner said mrs. Leslie who perhaps did not realize the difficulties experienced by modern legislators in meeting their friends any other evening in the week. And 1 she added More reasonably that lady Belvoir ought sometimes to Skime. She seems to for get my lady Belvoir had not forgotten that there was a mrs. Leslie but her impression was that mrs. Leslie was a bore and she would no More have thought asking a bore to one her Little dinners than offering unbeatable food to her guests. These Little dinners which she had taken to giving since her widows Hood were in a fair Way to become famous. She had a chef who was Mas Ter his Craft she knew everybody Worth to a phrase which May perhaps be misleading yet is accurate enough for its without giving herself much trouble Abonit it she was always Able to bring together people who were Likely to get Well together. Percy Thorold. For example got remarkably Well with miss Leslie whom he took in to dinner and in whom he was delighted to recognize a girl As yet untainted with the something that infects the the world at which we Are All Apt to rail As we approach Middle age. Is doubt less what we choose to think it make it. In the opinion this rising states Man it was a melancholy inhabited by millions toilers and sufferers and governed by a few thousands who upon the whole used their Power selfishly and unwisely. He was a conserva Tive because he believed that bad As the existing state things is ii would be even worse were the toiling and suffer ing millions to get the upper hand at heart and in theory he was probably an advanced Radical. The upper class to which he himself belonged he consist ered to be almost if not altogether Rotten allowing it no virtue save that Cour age and foreseeing without desiring its inevitable submersion. Probably he would have entertained a higher opinion it if lady Belvoir had been a Good woman but he had not pushed self analysis quite so far As to have divined that circumstance. To such a Pessimist it was naturally refreshing to encounter a Young woman his own station whose ideas were simple and direct who did not affect the uninformed scepticism which has fee come fashionable who had brought a tolerably Clear intelligence to Bear upon contemporary Politica and who did not in the least despair the future glory and greatness her native land. I think you Are quite wrong to sneer at she said after she had led him to confide certain views his to her and 1 Don t believe you Are sin Cere either. If you Are really convinced that All your party any other party cares for is office and if you yourself Don t care for it Why do you. Waste your time in the House commons when you might be Hunting shooting Bud Ding roses amusing yourself in some pleasant healthy because i am idiot enough to be ambitious 1 he answered with a shrug his shoulders. Because like the other fools i really rather enjoy the idea being pointed at and gaped at no because Yon Hope to leave the world a Little better than Yon found it i am not so ambitious so san Guine As All answered Thorold laughing. He shrank As most English men do from ascribing High motives to himself and even from hearing them ascribed to hint still he knew that the girl s estimate him was True enough and How could a help admiring her penetration in having discovered a secret i he had been such pates to con i ceal he found too that there were Many Points in respect which her tastes were identical Vith his own. She _ wave to fond arts ii she she not particularly care for what for Mats Cue More passion any Nevoida dancing than a girl her age ought to be. I All this made her a pleasant compan Ion in spite her sex and after will it was not the poor thing s fault that she had been born a woman. As for the other women present they were women the world and by that fact alone odious for the time being in Thorold s Eye therefore it was that he scarcely spoke a word to anybody but miss Lulie he whole evening and that when he took Bis leave lady Belvoir looked at him with a Peculiar smile and raised eyebrows. She said. He inquired. Already consoled. Don t mind me Pray my vanity is proof against Rwjr that kind. Ton see my dear Percy i Haven to the Shadow a Doi Abt 4hat i whistle Yon Backie i wished heaven Toroia s laugh did not very Folly conceal his annoyance. Have my full permission to lie could not help saying. But i won t take advantage your generosity. 1 have too vivi4 a recollection certain lectures. Yon will never have to lecture Dorothy Leslie who is a Nice girl in every Way and will suit you admirably. I shall have much pleasure in introducing you to her other any Day you like and 1 shall at once begin saving up my pocket Money so As to be Able to buy a handsome wed Ding present for Yon. Good Thorold did not trouble himself to con a addict her. He went away with a comfortable conviction was now entirely heart whole and tolerably cer Iain remaining so. Still regarding Hiss Leslie As he was Able to do in a dispassionate paternal sort Light he quite agreed with lady Belvoir thit he was a very Nice girl he wins Orry that there seemed to be so Little Ike Hood his Ever meeting her again.
