CHAPTER VI.?Continued. ?
So it befell that Hester Storm, having a
started out aimlessly along a country 111
road, her mind filled with schemes for ^
getting at Miss Elizabeth Thompson, had,
by a lucky char.ee, fallen in with this si
guileless and amiable party who actu- 'r
ally lived at Ipping House and who might
i be of the greatest use to her. Qj
| As they strolled on, side by side, the a
' girl elaborated for Horatio's benefit the P<
! same hard-luck story that she had in- tl
I vented for Betty on the train, the same ^
! nursery governess struggles, the same ei
disappointments and humiliations, only h
she did the thing much better for Ho- ?
ratio, having had more practice, and, as a
she finished, the curate's eyes were filled w
with tears. t(
"My dear young lady, I am inexpress- sl
ibly touched by your misfortunes, believe 'w
me, I am deeply affected." The intensity
of his emotion, as he spoke these words,
caused the reverend gentleman to open 0.
his pale blue eyes very wide (and his
1 powerful glasses magnified them still j1(
farther), so that Hester thought of him
suddenly as a strange, blue-eyed owl w
bending over her, and, to hide her merri- C1
ment, was forced to turn away. al
"Hook at that queer old girl coming w
down the road," she tittered, feeling that .
she must laugh at something. *,(
"Quqer old girl!" repeated Horatio, fo- ?
i cusing his vision in this new direction. t)
"Why, bless my soul, it's Harriet!"
A moment later Mrs. Merle joined them,
: stern of aspect, a female inquisitioner.
: with power of life or death, her husband
> felt, over wayward though well meaning
naturalists
1 "Horatio!" breathed the lady, and that w
t one word held such depths of scorn and
menace that the curate never again .
doubted the possibility of eternal wmishment.
^ %
"My dear Harriet," he began, weakly, V
but she cut him short.
' "Who is this person?" she demanded.
' with a freezing glance at Hester. f[
, Then came Horatio's great moment, i ,
I when, inspired with the courage of de- ! !
spair, he rallied against the breaking 1''
storm, and, for once in his life, as Hiram .
Baxter would have expressed it, played
Harriet to a standstill. Not one instant f
did he give his wife to press her attack,
not one word of explanation or apology .
did he vouchsafe, but by a masterly use
of the feminine method, he put the astounded
lady at once on the defensive,
then held her there with admirable strat- .
, egy. then drove her back, point by point, I ,

vanquished. j : .
1 "I have Just been in great peril, my | Jj
' dear," he answered, gravely. "In my t ?
' | stained and disordered garments you may!
see evidences of the?er?struggle." ''
"The struggle? Horatio? You have ?.
, been attacked?" his wife cried, in alarm. J*
, Realizing tlie value of tliis suggestion
and gaining confidence with every word,
the curate continued, facing Harriet al
most sternly now.
"You may see for yourself, my dear, ?
' where the weapon penetrated." !r.
| "The weapon? Oh, Horatio!" and she
| trembled.
With accusing forefinger, as if Harriet
, herself were to blame, the curate pointed ^
to the sinister hole in his boot. "There!" *;
be said. "And if this young lady had'
not rushed to my assistance with a cour- ;
age and resourcefulness that I have rare- j P
ly seen equaled " he paused to control j *
his emotion, while Mrs. Merle wrung her i ?
hands in distress.
"I have been so hasty, so inconsider- i
ate," she walled. "I shall never forgive "
myself. And you, my dear young lady," "
she turned her brimming eyes to Hester. ?
whose face was averted, "what must you
think of me? Horatio, introduce us," (P
she whispered. . i ?,
"Certainly, mv dear, this is my young j
friend. Miss?er " I ?
Then the adventuress decided. "Miss ; ^
Hester Storm," she said, simply, and,! ^
with her wonderful, wistful sniile. she L
held out her hand to Mrs. Merle. p
"I'm sure I'm very grateful for what .
you've done. Miss Storm," said Harriet, *
graciously. j "
And presently these three, such was j
the effectiveness of Merle's new diplo-1 P
macy, were walking on most amicably JJl
toward Ipping House, the subject of con- j
versation being the wrongs suffered by ,
Hester in a thankless world and the ob- "
ligation of the Merles to now, in some'i'.1
measure, relieve these wrongs. It may I *.
hp added that never, to the end of her I ' !
days, did Harriet Merle fully and clearly tlj
grasp the details of the terrible danger *
from which this dark-eyed damsel had j1'
saved her husband. "
As a turn in the road brought into view "
i the tiny gable of the gray-stone lodge of
! Ipping .House, Harriet saw an opportu- "
nity to prove the genuineness of her penitence
and gratitude. "
"I have it." she exclaimed, with a
pleased look. "The very thing. Horatio!"
"What, my dear?"
"Old Mrs. Pottle!"
"You mean " he glanced benevolently
at Hester.
"I mean that Miss Storm has no place J
to go in Ippingford, no friends except
ourselves and?there are two spare rooms
at the lodge. I am sure Cousin Hiram
would have no objections, and poor Mrs.
Pottle needs some one to help her. Would J
I you mind helping at the lodge, my dear?" S
"No. indeed," answered Hester, sweet- p
ly. "I am only too glad to help. It's E
so kind of you and your husband to give
me the opportunity." v
Thus it came about that, the following tl
evening, Hester of the scarlet cloak was h
watching eagerly near the lodge when
Hiram Baxter's big automobile swung in -jthrough
the gate and moved swiftly up i e;
the drive with a musical murmur of its I r>
| smooth-running engine. On the back u
I seat was Miss Elizabeth Thompson, and [ &
j Hester thrilled with excitement as she i n
recognized the fair American, the lady I j(
of the golf bag. Here was her ehahee, n
her great chance, but?she had one mis- n
giving. Miss Thompson knew her as Jenny
Regan, and now she had given the eurarte a
and his wife her real name, Hester Cl
Storm. n
/ CHAPTER VII. g
The New Secretary. ?
Hester's problem was exceedingly sim- g
ple?she wanted two or three minutes
alone with Miss Thompson's golf bsfe.
That was all she asked of fortune, two
or three minutes: and for the aceomplish;

was the use of arguing? She had made st
the break v.nd would see the thing d:
, through It wasn't every well meaning jn
; citizen who could land a fortune by putting
in a little time chasing a golf hag!
I Meantime, while this dark-eyed schemer bl
; waited for a chance to ravish the beau- al
tiful bank notes from their unsuspected bi
hiding place. Betty Thompson, all unconscious
of Hester's presence, was going
. through agitated hours in the little mess- J"
zanine chamber opening off the library
! that she had chosen for her bedroom,
1 partly on* account of its appropriaate .
situation for a secretary and chiefly be- w
cause of its quaint unusualness. At the
flrst glance her fancy had been taken by al
the odd little staircase that curved up
in a corner of the big room to a narrow ^
door high in the paneled oak wall. For
the rest it was a plain, conventlike chant- V?
ber. with whitewashed walls and one .
small window opening, like that of Horatio's
study, over the roof of the con- ?'
servatorv.
Little it mattered to Betty whether her [j*
room was large or small and whether its
furnishings were sumptuous or simple.
She had more important things to think
of, poor child, and a problem tQ face-that bi
required all her fortitude. Here were al
the hopes and dreams of licr life rudely pn

>rtuno that meant freedom. pleasure,
. crything, it now appeared that she was
poor girl with a burden of debt who
uist work for her living. She who had
ever learned to work and who hated
rudgery, who had often asked herself
ow shop girls and office girls could posbly
endure their dull existence, now she
lust work fop her living! No wonder
tiss Betty Thompson tossed sleepless
id wretched and tearful through most
f this first night at Ipping House, after
forlorn dinner sent to her room, tinder
lea of headache, and then scarcely
mched.
It was late the next morning when
Irs. Baxter knocked at Betty's door and
itered with brisk salutations., Was the
eadache better? Yes. thanks, it was
nd would the new secretary have breakist
in bod? The new secretary laughed
nd admitted that, for this once, she
ould very much enjoy some coffee and
last in bed. nothing else, please: and
le assured Mrs. Baxter that never again
ould she be so neglectful of her duties.
What must Mr. Baxter think of her?
"Mr. Baxter went into town on the
irly train," answered Eleanor, reassurlgly.
"so don't disturb yourself. I think
e left 6ome papers for you with Bob."
"Oh!" said Betty, and she recalled,
ith a thrill of pleasure, the tall, cleanat,
young American who had met them
t the station. Nice eyes had little Bobby,
ho was now big Bobby! Very nice eyes!
nd rather good shoulders! Extremely
nod shoulders! Must have been an athtc
at college?rowed on the crew and
lat soil of thing. She would ask liim.

he mustn't usk personal questions or
link of him as Bobby. He was Mr. Robrt
Baxter, a very serious person with
apers for her to copy, and she was?slitas
the new secretary!
Strange to say. this thought that in the
ig'nt had brought such gloom came now
i Ttettv n mnttor r?f amused contem
latlon. Mr. Robert Baxter! Ahem!
nd more than once, while she carefully
ressed, the American girl flashed misiiievous
and approving smiles into the
lass out of her deep, blue eyes, and
hen, shortly after 10, she descended to
le library by her little winding stairs,
lie was as fresh and lovely a vision of
fair young woman as one would wish
) see, quite in spirit with the pleasant
unshini flooding the park and the black irds
rejoicing in the beeches. Miss
hompson's buoyant youth and sense of
umor had come to the rescue.
A glance showed her that the library '
as empty, and she spent some moments
njoying the dignity of this long, spaious
room that was to be the scene of
er labors. Those old carved oak panels
f the napkin pattern, how she loved
lem! And the Elizabethan ceiling and
le tall, deep windows opening on the
onservatory! Surely the very last place
here one would expect to find the desk
f a hustling American man of business,
et there it was, waiting for Betty to
egin, not a roll-top desk, thank heaven,
ut an antique, piece of curious design
nd richly inlaid, standing near one of
le great windows and now heaped with
pile of mail for Hiram Baxter lliat had
ccumulated since his sailing from New
ork.
At a little distance from this desk was
long, narrow table, also carved, but
f a later period, with a standard telehone
at one end and a typewriter at the
tlier, while between these were rows of
eatly arranged papers, pamphlets and reorts.
On top of the typewriter lay a
Lrge sheet of paper, on which the new
;cretary read a blue-penciled message to
erself.
"Dear Miss Thompson," began the mesige.
"Father has gone to town. You
ill find some correspondence on the
ther desk that he wants you to look
yer. Please make a little abstract of
ho wrote the letters and what they are
bout. I'll be in shortly and explain.'
ours truly, R. BAXTER."
It was with mingled emotions that
etty read this note. "Dear Miss Thompjn!"
There it was in 'black and white!
nd, having seen it. she did not partlcuirly
like it. Nor the cool way in which
obby Baxter gave her orders! He would
e back shortly to explain. Indeed! R.
axter would be back shortly. Very
ell! When R. Baxter came back she
ould show R. Baxter that she could be
ist as stiff and businesslike as he was.
Settling herself at the desk, Betty began
ith the letters, looking up from time to
me to enjoy the changing greens of the
jnservatory that shimmered in through
ie leaded window panes. And presently
ie smiled at her foolish annoyance. Why
louldn't Bob be stiff and businesslike?
: was all her doing and it was too late
ow to draw back and?? Here was a
isk that she had given herself, a sort
f penance that would show how deeply
rie realized her great obligation to
iiram Baxter. She had set out to be the
ew secretary, ana, in spue or k. cax;r,
with his eyes and his shoulders, in
Mte of annoyances or humiliations, she
ould be the new secretary.

1 PRESIDENTS
Xm?THE RISE I
By Frederii
There were many ^events In the election 1
of 1-S36. when Van Buren won out against
a whole field of candidates, which may
yet find a parallel in the presidential election
of 11*12. It has been suggested by,
some that If Roosevelt and Taft together
poll more votes than Wilson, and If a
combination of their electors should rep-1
resent a majority In the electoral colleges.
some way may yet be found to
bring that majority to the support of the
one or the other before the electoral colleges
meet and vote in January. However
this may be, that was one of the
ideas that animated the opposition to
Van Buren In 183ti Divers and sundry
factions were opposed to Jackson and to!
his method of picl"i?-g his successor, fac-,
tions which could lot And any platform'
upon which they could all unite, but
which were willing to fight in a common
cause provided they could ^rht independently.
In this opposition mere were the
anti-Masons, the protective tariff men,
the States righters, the anti-Jaohsonites
and the remnants of other "Isms."
But they realized that they had no
great national figure who could unite the
entire opposition, and. lacking that, they
would have to play up local pride and
try to capitalize it. So they put up Daniel
Webster in New England, trusting
that he could carry that section. Then
they put up -William Henry Harrison of
Indiana, and Justice John McLean of
OhlQ, trusting that they could hold the
west out of the Van Buren column Tennessee
nominated Senator Hugh h
White, erstwhile the intimate friend of
Jackson, but now a rank "traitor." because
he would not fall in with Jackson's
plans to have Van Buren succeed to the
presidency. With South Carolina determined'
not to vote for any candidate that
had a ghost of a show, 11 was felt that
the. aggregate vote of the onposltlon
might be enough to prevent the success
of Van Buren.
*
* *
If such a result should eventuate, they
reasoned, one of two things could happen
?either the
Everything to Gain anu-van bui
?, .1 . . ? ren electors
and Nothing to Lose. could alI unlte
on one man. and thus elect htm: or. if
that scheme failed, they could throw the
election into the House and trust to God
for the rest. From their standpoint they
had everything to gain and nothing to
lose by such a course, for the worst that,
could happen would be the elevation of
Van Buren to the presidential chair.
Their scheme failed for the good reason
that when the vote was counted Van
Buren had more votes than all of them
together.
Jackson's determination to have Van
Buren succeed iiim was sueh that lie even
went so far. it is said, as to have contemplated
the advisability of resigning in
order that Vice. President Van Buren
might become President by that route.
But if he did think these things he
thought afterward that he could aid Van
Buren better while he himself sat in the
presidential chair.
Tennessee got into the game early by
nominating Senator Wliite. Its legislature.
in the face of the hardest pressure
Jackson could bring to bear upon, its
members, nominated White by a vote
that lacked but two of being unanimous.
Jackson had some terrific charges against
White printed in his organ, the Washington
Globe, and copies of these charges
were franked to the members of the Tennessee
legislature, some of them addressed
in Jackson's own handwriting. But
they had no effect. Alabama followed the
lead of Tennessee, although Its legislature
afterward rescinded this action.
*
* * ' .
Tennessee having nominated White in
January, 183T?, Jackson was. forced to get
Van Buren in

Ahead of Election. hilf ahPad of the
elcotfon.. Ho suggested that a national
convention be called to meet In Baltimore.
This was done, and delegates
took part. In these days of precise representation
the story of that convention
makes one laugh. Of this number of
delegates, 181 were from Maryland. 108
from Virginia and 73' front. New Jersey.
It seems that the.Maryland state convention,
not wishing to discriminate, had decided
that all of Its delegates should take
part in the national convention.
When the convention- got down to business
Van Buren was its unanimous
choice for first place, but. for the vice
presidency the'vote was divided between
Col. R. M. Johnson of Kentucky and \yilliam
C. Rives of Virginia. Next day
Johnson received the necessary' twothirdfc.
and Was declared the nominee.
Virginia served notice, however, that it
would not support Johnson:
A Pennsylvania state convention nominated
. William Henry. Harrison and
Francis Granger on an anti-Masonic
ticket. Granger also ran as the vice
presidential candidate on the Webster
ticket. John Tyler of Virginia was to
run on the ticket with . White. These
plans all were carried out. The states
still were not voting -on a uniform elec-.
tion day, some of them voting toward
the last of October and others as late |
as the middle of November. When the
returns began to come in they were not
promising to the democrats. Ohio and
New Jersey, both of which had supported
Jackson four y*f ars before, swung away
from Van Buren to William Henry' Harrison.
But . when all the votes were
counted it was found that Van Buren
had carried lifteen out of the twenty-six |
states, a'though a few popular votes,'
rightly placed, would have given the al-|
lies a majority. South Caro'inu cast its1
votes?the electors being chosen bv the |
legis'ature?for Willie P. Mangurn of
North Carolina. ?
When the votes were counted in Congress,
Henry Clay had secured the passage
of a resolution to ascertain whether
anj* electoral votes had been cast by
persons holding positions of profit entrust
under the government. The resulting
investigation disclosed that several
deputy postmasters and a pension
agent were among the electors, but their
votea were "counted just the same.

#
_ Virginia made good its threat not to
support Johnson for the vice presidency,
and inVirginia
Cast Vote Stead gave
for Smith of Alabama, ^electoral
votes to William Smith of Alabama.
This threw the election of the Vice Presl- *
dent Into the Senate, the only time in the
history of the country that su< h a thing
has happened. When the Jacks-or-rClay.
Crawford-Adams contest was. thrown
Into the House it did not affect the vice
presidency, because Calhoun, having his
name on. more than one ticket, got a majority
of the electoral votes. In 1800,
when there was a contest between Jefferson
and Burr, the election of Jefferson to
th > presidency automatically put Burr in
the vice presidency, a thing impossible
under the Constitution as it now stands.
-No campaign in the history of the country
ever, was oisgraced by more vilification
than this contest for the succession
to Jackson. The Van liuren crowd accused
everybody in opposition, without
discrimination, of being bribed by the
United States Bank to become the creatures
of the British Rothschilds, who
were presented as the real owners of the
bank. Nicholas Blddle and "Riddle's
Rank" were attacked with more venom
than ever before.
On the other hand, the whig?, as the opposition
-were beginning to be called,
could not allow themselves to be outdone
In that respect. They-attacked Jackson,
