Now Mr. Er-sex had always main- |
tamed a special dislike for Mr. Coan
Grant, broanse. forsooth, that gentle- j
man had been his most formidable !
rival in the days when both paid court j
to pretty Yielet Gray. For the,briefest
space of time imaginable Mr. Essex j
was dnmfonnded, and stood tnggiug ;
p rplexeuly at the drooping corners of !
his moustache, while Mrs'Essex trip- ;
ped by with the swish of a long train,
a vision of lace drapery, opal orna
meuts, and peurl-fair arms and slioul
ders.
"The devil!" said Mr, Essex, in an •

"Well, if that i

Miss Pritchard• "There goes your

"I see her," said Mr. Essex, lugu
briously.
And he took Miss Pritchard back to
the parlors only to be again astounded
by a sight of his wife and Goan Grant

! "My dear, 1 was coming iu search
j of you," said Peroy, with an effort at
nonchalance. "I must positively insist
j upon the pleasure of the next dance."
Mrs. Essex raised her hand pud ayes,
' and the faintest sound of suppressed
1 laughter smote upon his enr.

And away she floated in Ooan Grant's
arms, leaving Percy to stalk moodily
! np and down the checkered floor of
! the balcony, chafing at himself, and
grinding his white teeth t gether in a
paroxysm of jealous rage.
"This is a new phase in mvlady's

The dance came to an end finally,

lost no time in finding Mrs. Essex.
"We will return home now, if you

"Nonsense!" said Mrs. Essex, with
a most becoming pout. "Going home,

myself so hugely 1 I shall do nothing
of the kind, If you are tired you may

"I know so. You have degraded not i

Mrs. Essex leaned forward until her

society, that you wero degrading me?
