[BY SPECIAL ARRANGEMENT—COPYRIGHT.} j BY SPECB,L AlillA.WEMET-COPYBIGnT.l ¡ JANET'S LOVERS. I By P. B. SUTCLIFFE. Janet Graham was a pretty, blue-eyed, golden-haired girl, and the only child cT a retired merchant, who resided in a. hrmdsome suburban villa in the southern t-ubarbe of Glasgow. Young, good-looking, and heiress to her father's large fortune, Janet, as may be supposed, had many admirers: but the two she seemed to favour most -were Archie Ingram and Philip Masters. The former, an artist, with his way to nalie in hIs profes- sion. had little but his good looks to recom- mend him, while the latter was -ich. inci a recognised man of fashion. Despite all the advantages on the side of Philip Masters, Janet favoured the artist, and although the latter was persistent iy his attentions, ehe gave her heart to Archie Ingram. The birt-h of Jancst had cost her mother'n life. cnd Mr. GraltLjn's household it Myrtle Grove had since that time been managed by his sister, an elderly maiden lady. Mr. Graham was an eaay-going individual, and his sifter ruled both him, his daughter, and his household with a rod of iron. Why do you never ask Archie Ingram to I dinner, Aunt .Sa-raih?" allied Janet, one day. Aunt Sarah was straight-laced, prim, and orthodox in all her views, and h.ad somehow taken a dislike to young Ingram, while Philip Masters was her special favourite. "I cannot understa nd. Janet. how you have learned to talk in such a flippant manner. You never heard me call young men by their » Chri-tian names," she answered, with a hard stare at her niece. "Xo, indeed." returned Janet; "but then we have known A—I mettn, Mr. Ingram—for e-ach a long time." "That maks no difference. The only man a woman has a right to call by his Christian name is her husband. As to inviting Ingram here. I may sny. during txie years that I have presided over your father's household. I have so far managed to guard it irom penniless adventurer. There was a long pause, when Janet, sud- denly looking up in her aunt's lace, said: "It is strange that rich men are never so interesting as those who are poor." Good gracjous" exclaimed Aunt Sarah, "how can a poor man be interesting to you? Any right-mirded girl cannot help being interested in a man who is rich and a gen- tleman besides." Then I don't suppose I am right-minded. Aunt Sarah ?" Aunt Sarah busied herself with her knitting for a minute or two before answer- ing. If you are not. then it's your own fault. Now, there is Mr. Masters, young and rich. I am sure he is interesting." I have never found him so." You were scarcely cit-il to Mr. Masters last night." I detest him." Janet Well, Aunt Sarah ?" Is this to be my reward after watching you with a, mother's care and love from your cradle, and after my teaching and the example I have shown you?" A smile flickered about Janet's mouth, for it occurred to her that her aunt had not ) shown her an example in marriage. "I can't help it. aunt; I don't like him." "At any rate, you ought to pay eome- respect to those who have seen more of life than you have." Which means, aunt. that I ought to marry Philip Masters. Aunt Sarah coughed, and v4khout answer- ing directly the remarks of her niece went on: Your father's health is failing, and only I yesterday I was explaining to him the respect you had for Mr. Masters. He was greatly relieved at the prospect of seenig your future safe." "Father will never force me to marry against my will." "Force!" repeated Aunt Sarah, with a snort. "Certainly not; but at the same time he will espact obedience from his only daughter." Again Janet paused, then said: "I don't like Mr. Masters." "Why?" demanded her aunt. "I don't know. but I won't marry him." Girls should never say won't where mar- riage is concerned." returned her aunt, sternly. If they do. they generally live to regret it." Janet was wondering if her aunt had used the m ord won't" in reference to marriage, when a visitor entered and put an end to the discussion. That evening Philip Masters dined with the Grahams, and strove to make himself agreeable to Janet. who received his atten- tions with a coolness that boded little good for his hopes.. Later, when her aunt had fallen into a. comfortable snooze, and while her father and Masters were sitting over their wine, Janet quietly left the drawing-room and flipped out. Making her way to a quiet corner of the extensive grounds attached to Myrtle Grove, she found Archie Ingram wait- ing for her. Archie welcomed her with all a lover's eagerness, and after a little Janet said: I can only stay for a very few minutes. Mr. Masters is with papa, and my absence may be observed." He is a lucky fellow in being able tc spend the evening in your society." "Well. I don't know about that." remarked Janet, with a smile. Aunt Kirah has been saying dreadful things to-day." I know the has a great contempt for me, or perhaps it's for my poverty." "I don't mind what she say., about that; but then she wants—insists That you should marry Philip Masters," put in Archie. How could you gu"S. Archie ?'" Easily, little, sweetheart. It was quite obvious from the first that Masters was her favourite. But you love me. darling." "Yes." returned Janet, with a bright emile. "I am hardly in a position to ask you tu be :uy wife, Janet; but rather thau Philip Masters should caUFe you any trouble, we will get married—that is. if you are willing to trust me." You know I would trust you my life, darling," answered Janet, her head nestling on his breast. "Our home, dearest, will be but a poor one. and poverty is hard to bear. It will be as hard for you ,-8 it will be for me." she returned. Scarcely. You have been accustomed to luxurious surroundings, -IJlle my llf j has 'bite my hi' j hag been a struggle all along." With a %nnle Janet looked up in hi- ana said: "I would rather face pov??ty with you than live in luxury with Phi ip Masters And now, Archie, dear. I must go," and with her lover's kisses still burning on her lips she hurried back to the house. She reachid -,lie drawing-room without her abeenoe having been detected, and soon after her father and Philip made their t.ppearance. Janet could not help admitting that Phiiip Masters was good-looking, and could make himself agreeable when he chose to tlnow aside his foppish, affected manners. H" was assidnous in hiB attentions to her tl&t evening, and Janet appeared to receive them with more favour than usual. After ouitting the grounds of Myrtle Grove Ingram did not turn citywards, W:iero he resided, but made his way through the scattered suburban residences, and out iut > the'country. He wandered on for some dis- tanoe until darknesse set in, wfcen he turned and retraced his steps. Just as he was near- ing PolloliPhielcLs station, he observed Philip Masters a few yards ahead of him. Quicken- ing his steps with the design of overtaking him. he was surprised to observe a wooiaa emerge from the shadow of the houses and lay her band on his arm. ih-n walk on at his side. Suddenly the young artist started. The woman's figure. her height, the colour of her hair. so reminded him of Janet Graham that the blood rushed back to his heart, and it seemed for an instant as if he would choke. Then the sound of her voice re-assured him. and he heard her say: You have not kept your promise. Philip." Masters started at her touch, Wh-. Janet, he said, "I was thinking of you." She laughed harehiy. "You have broken every promise you eret made to me. "What is v.rosig to-night Again she laid her hand on his arm. end, puliing him round until the light of a street lamp fell on his pale ieatures, said: When I listened to your soft epeechcs. and in an evil hour fled from my home. we were to be married in two days. With ODe excuse or another yon put it off from week to week, and now it is months, and I am Dot, yet your v.-ife." I cannot marry you." he answered shortly. Do not speak harshly 10 me. Philip. I believe you have spoken the truth now. Why did you not do so before? But go your "way and I will go mine, 1 nd let COJ. juaga betwc'n the villain and his victim." ithout another w-rd she turned ft" ay, and brushing past Archie walked along the etreet with unsteady steps. Again he was struck with her resemblance to Janet Graham, and acting on the impulse of the moireut. he followed her The girl appeared to be in a dazed sort of etate, and v.usmaking to cross the street. when if Archie had not caught he- by the arm and dragged her back. -V" would have been run o-er by a passing hansom. "1 thank yon," she said, on realising her dRngjr. and at the same time looking hard at him. "I am glad I was near." he answered, a smile. I observed you speaking to i. Masters. and may als,1 tell you ».ankij that I wa, forced to overhear part of your conversation. "It matters little," she replied. "In that you may be wrong. It is pOco sibl.) that 1 might be able to help YOU. I kno- Philip Masters to b? a hvpocntiCaI villain." itonk I distrust men t-be answered, scanning his features closely. "In what way could you help me ? That altogether depends on the amount of confidence ycv. are willing to repose- in "If I trusted you iinplicity. in Way could you he In me ? In many, perhaps. Possibly in nothing. But if you do trust me with your story, your confidence will never be abused." She looked at him again, then with a. candour tc his or n. answered: I beiieve you are honest, and I will trust, you. She then told him her story, vhich. briefly p1t, was this. Her parents had died when she was quite young. She had been brought up by some distant relatives, who sent out to earn her living as a teacher. She had been mtroduaed t Musters, who md professed a. great love for her. In an evil hour she had agreed to elope with him. -le k-t itiiig that all arrangements for their n arriage taking place n the following t'Ay had been made. By means of one excuse or other he put off the marriage, and now rexa-sed altogether to keep his promise. I think I can see a way to help vo" said Archie. when she had concluded. Meanwhile I must ask you t) trun me a L?,, tru-st nAe a little further. Philip Masters. I may teli you, seeks in marriage the hand of a harm- ing girl. the daughter rf a fell-known Glas- gow cert1 em art. Would you mind accom- panying me to Mr. Graham's house, and t..1. ing him and his daughter the story you have just told me ?" W iiiiigly," she answered. In Mr. Graham and his daughter vou wnl find friends who will help j-on to right tile wrong you have suffered." Some further conversation ensued and arrangements for the next day vere made then Arrhie hastened to his rooms, where he sat down and penned the following note: Dear Janet.-W, ill you try and ge: your aunt away from home to-morrow after- neon? Get her away as far as possible, so that she cannot return for several hours. I had a curious experience last night, and have something of great importance to ;'ay before your father aDd you. I Jknow you wfli manage to get Aunt Sarah out of the v,-ay.-Y,urs ever, &c., ARCHIE." The following morning Janet was down- stairs early, and had time to read her better before sitting down to breakfast. "I wonder it can be." she thought. It is n )t bQ easy as Archie thinks to get Aunt fcarah out of the way." But Janet recognised that., everything is fair in love and war. and in dealing with her aunt did not hesitate to u^e a little bit of mild deception. The result was that when Archie called Aunt Sarah was out of the way. Mr. Graham w. ready to see him, and Miss Raymond was introduced to both father and daughter. Quietly, but with much feeling. Miss B-ay- mond tcid her story, and when she had con- eluded a long consultation took place, and the four separated, appearing to understand each other thoroughly. Good,bye for the present. Miss Raymond. I tmnk yen will fiud my way of righting a wrong the best." said Janet as they parted. A few days later it was given out that Janet Graham and Philip Masters were to be married in a month from that date. The invitations were Kent out. Mr. Graham being particular to invite all Philip Masters" friends as well as his own, so that, the com- pany was a large one. It was the marriage day. The gueets had assembled. the officiating elergymen were ready. and the bridegroom had taken his place, when Mr. Graham, with what looked like two brides, one on each arm. entered the room. Halting in front of Philip Masters, he briefly apologised for delaying the ceremony with a brief explana- tion which it was his duty to make. This lady, Miss Janet Raymond, is the daughter of a cousin cf my wife's, whom I had lot eight of for years, but who was recently brought under my notice in a some- what peculiar manner. Philip Masters, in the presence of this company of your friends and mine. I at-k you. in the sight of God, is this lady not your V\if?" Philip Masters, who had become white and ghastly, saw the trap which had been laid for him. and how cleverly it had been turned against him. In the room was every friend and relative for whom he had the slightest regard, and who had hitherto looked upon him ae an honourable man and a gentleman His legs shook under him. and he glanced at Mr. Graham as if making a mute appeal for mercy, but his answer came in the words: In the sight of God. is not this woman yfur wife?" The extraordinary action and words of Mr. Graham caused every eye in the room to be fixed on Philip Masters. They saw guilt on his features, for if ever a man's actions ha.d found him out it was his. Draw- ing himself np. he cast one defiant glance round the room, then said: lÆt. the ceremony proceed. I am ready." It was a curious preface to the sacred cere- ony and 1 bitter rill for Philip to swallow. which. to do him justice he swallowed era-oe. fUlly. When the ceremony was concluded. Mr. Graham introduced Mrs. Masters to everyone of his guests, while Janet, walking up to Philip. laid her hand on his arm. and said: dec?- n ? ^r»'ve -? share in the djeception ?'' T ^iS; Graham h? s.id. with a wan ""e, forgive all out my own folly I haT Ge.pieably, and ÜÜ8 ???.e is no imroorrT e than my actions deserved You will hE" zo,)d to her, for she loves yon.
