ere it was again. I thought that in-
terview would be the death of me.
Brandon held his face in his hands
and then, looking up, said: “It is only
m question of your happiness, and, hard
as the voyage and your life over there
would be, yet I believe it would be bet-
ter than life with Louis of France.
Nothing could be-so terrible as that to
both of hs. If you wish to go, I will
try to take you, though I die in the
attempt. There will be ample time to
reconsider, so that you can turn back
If you wish.”
Her reply was inarticulate, though
satisfactory, and she took his hand in
hers as the tears ran gently down her
cheeks, this time tears of joy, the first
abe had shed for many a day.
In the Siren country again without
wax! Overboard and lost!
Yes, Brandon’s resolution not to see
Mary was well taken, if it could only
Lave been as well kept. Observe as
we progress into what the breaking of
It led him.
He had known that if he should but
see her once more his already toppling
will would lose its equipoise, and he
4 would be led to attempt the impossible
and invite destruction. At first this
scheme appeared to me in its true
light, but Mary’s subtle feminine logic
made it seem such plain and easy sail-
ing that I soon began to draw enthusi-
asm from her exhaustless store, and
cur combined attack upon Brandon
eventually routed every vestige of cau-
tion and common sense that even he
Lad left.
Siren logic has always been Irresist-
ible and will continue so no doubt de-
spite experience.
I cannot define what it was about
Mary that made her little speeches,
half argumentative, all pleading, so
wonderfully persuasive. Her facts
were mere fancies, and her logic was
not even good sophistry. As to real
argument and reasoning, there was
nothing of either in them. It must
have been her native strength of char-
~ acter and intensely vigorous personal-
ity-some unknown force of nature op-
erating through her occultly—that
turned the channels of other persons’
thoughts and filled them with her own
Will. There was magic in her power,
I am certain, but unconscious magic to
Mary, I am equally sure. She never

There was still another obstacle to

not my wife, and we dare not trust 0
priest here to unite us.”
“No,” replied Mary, with hanging
bead, “but we can—can find one over
there.”
“I do "hot know how that will be. Wo
shall probably not find one—at least I
fear. I do not know.”
After a little hesitation she answer-
ed: "I will go with you anyway and—
and risk it. I hope we may find a
priest.” And she flushed scarlet from
ber throat to her hair.
Brandon kissed her and said: “You
shall go, my brave girl. You make me
blush for my faint heartedness and
prudence. I will make you my wife in
some way as sure as there is a God.”
Soon after this Brandon forced him-
self to insist on her departure, and I
went with her, full' of hope and com-
pletely blinded to the dangers of our
cherished scheme. I think Brandon
sever really lost sight of the danger
and almost infinite proportion of chance
against this wild, reckless venture, but
was .daring enough to attempt it even
In the face of such clearly seen and
deadly consequences.

CHAPTER XV.
TO MAKE A MAN OF HER.
|0 it was all arranged, and 1
converted part of Mary’s jew-
els into money. She said she
_ was sorry tlovv she had not
taken De Longueville’s diamonds, as
they would have added to her treas-
ure. I, however, procured quite a
large sum, to which I secretly added a
goodly portion out of my own store.
At Mary's request I sent part to Brad-
burst at Bristol and retained the rest
for Brandon to take with him.
A favorable answer soon came from.
Bristol, giving the young nobleman a
separate room in consideration of the
large purse be had sent.
The next step was to procure the
gentleman’s wardrobe for Mary. This
was a little troublesome at first, for of
course she could not be measured in
the regular way. We managed to over-
come this difficulty by having Jane
take the measurements under instruc-
tions received from the tailor, which
measurements, together with the cloth,
I took to the fractional little man who
did my work. •
He looked at the measurements with
twinkling eyes and remarked: “Sir Ed-
win. that be the curiousest shaped man
ever I see'the measures of. Sure, it
wouWl make a mighty handsome worn
an or I know nothing of human dimen-
sions.”
“Never you mind about dimensions.
Make the garments as they are ordered
and keep your mouth shut. If you know
what Is to your Interest. Do you hear?”
He delivered himself of a labored
wink. “I do bear and understand, too,
and my tongue is like the tongue of an
obelisk.”
In due time I brought the suits to
Mary, and they were soon adjusted to
ber liking.
The days passed rapidly till it was a
matter of less than a -fortnight until
the Royal Hind would sail, and it real
ly looked as If the adventure might
turn out to our desire.
Jane was in tribulation and thought
she ought to be taken along. This, you
may be sure, was touching me very
closely, and I begau to wish the whole
Infernal iness at the bottom of the sea.
If Jane went, bis august majesty King
Henry VIII. would be without a mas-
ter of the dance just ns sure as the

stars twinkled' in the firmament. It
was, however, soon decided that Bran-
don would have his hands more than
full to get off with one woman, and
that two would surely spoil the plan.
So Jane was to be left behind, full of
tribulation and indignation, firmly con-
vinced that she was being treated very
badly.
Mary’s vanity was delighted with her
elopement trousseau, for of course it
was of the finest. Not that the quality
was better than her usual wear, but
doublet aud liose were so different on
her. She paraded for an hour or so
before Jane, and as she became ac-
customed to the new garb and as the
steel reflected a most beautiful image
she determined to show herself to
Brandon and me. She said she want-
ed to become accustomed to being seen
in her doublet and hose and would be-
gin with us. She thought if she could
not bear our gaze she would surely
make a dismal failure on shipboard
among so many strange men. There
was some good reasoning in this, and
it, together with her vanity, overruled
her modesty and prompted her to come
to see us in ber character of young
nobleman. Jane made one of her
mighty protests, so infinitely dispro-
portionate in size to her little ladyship,
but the self willed princess would not
listen to her and was for coming alone
if Jane would not come with her. Once
having determined, as usual with her,
she wasted no time about it, but,
throwing a long cloak over her shoul-
ders, started for our rooms, with angry,
weeping, protesting Jane at her heels.
When I heard the knock, I was sure
it was the girls, for though Mary had
promised Brandon she would not un-
der any circumstances attempt another
visit I knew so well her utter inability
to combat ber desire and her reckless
disregard of danger where there was a
motive sufficient to furnish the nerve
tension that 1 was sure she would come
or try to come again.
I admitted the girls, and when the
door was shut Mary unclasped the
brooch at her throat, and the groat
cloak fell to her heels. Out she step-
ped, with a little laugh of delight,
clothed in doublet, hose and confusion,
the prettiest picture mortal eyes ever
rested on. Her hat, something on the
broad, flat style with a single white
plume encircling the crown, was of
purple velvet trimmed in gold braid
aud touched here and there with pre-
cious stones. Her doublet was of the
same purple velvet as her bat, trimmed
in lace and gold braid. Her short
trunks were of heavy black silk slashed
by yellow satin, with hose of lavender
silk, and her little shoes were of rus-
set French leather. Quite a rainbow,
you will say, but such a rainbow!
Brandon and I were struck dumb
with admiration and could not keep
from showing it. This disconcerted
the girl and increased ber embarrass-
ment until we could not tell which was
the prettiest, the garments, the girl or
the confusion, but this I know—the
whole picture was as sweet and beauti-
ful as the eyes of man could behold.
Fine feathers will • not make fine
birds, and Mary’s masculine attire
could no more make her look like a
man than harness can disguise the
graces of a gazelle. Nothing could
conceal her intense, exquisite woman-
hood. With our looks of astonishment
and admiration Mary's blushes- deep-
ened.
“What is the matter? Is anything
wrong?” she asked.
“Nothing is wrong,” answered Bran-
don, smiling in spite of himself. “Noth-
ing on earth is wrong with you, you
may be sure. You are perfect—that is,
for a woman—and one who thinks there
is anything wrong about a perfect
woman Is hard to please. But If you
Hatter yourself that you in any way
resemble a man or that your dress in
the faintest degree conceals your sex
you are mistaken. It makes it only
more apparent”
How can that be?” asked Mary In
comical tribulation. “Is not this a
man’s doublet and hose, and this hat—
is it not a man’s hat? They are all for
a man. Then why do I not look like
one, I ask? Tell me what is wrong.
Oh, I thought I looked just like a man.
thought the disguise was perfect.”
“Well,” returned Brandon, “if you
will permit me to say so, you are en-
tirely too symmetrical and shapely
ever to pass for a man.”
The flaming color was in her cheeks
as Brandon went on: “Your feet are
too small, even for a boy’s feet. I
don’t think you could be made to Took
like a man if you worked from now
till doomsday."
Brandon spoke in a troubled tone,
for he was beginning to see in Mary’s
perfect and irrepressible womanhood
an insurmountable difficulty right
across his path.
“As to your feet, you might find
larger shoes, or, better still, Jack boots,
and, as to your hose, you might wear
longer trunks, but what to do about
the doublet I am sure I do not know.”
Mary looked up helpless and forlorn,
and the hot face went into her bended
elbow as a realization of the situation
seemed to dawn upon her.
“Oh, I wish I had not come! But 1
wanted to grow accustomed, so that I
could wear them before others. I be-
lieve I could bear it more easily with
any one else. I did not think of It in
that way.” And she snatched her
cloak from where it had fallen on the
floor and threw it nround her.
“What way, Mary?” asked Brandon
geutly and receiving no answer. “But
you will have to bear my looking at
you all the time if you go with me.”
"I don’t believe I can do it.”
“No, no,” answered be, bravely at-
tempting cheerfulness; “we may as
well give it up. I have had no hope
from the first. I knew it could not be
done, and It should not. I was both
Insane and criminal to think of per-
mitting you to try it.”
Brandon’s forced cheerfulness died
out with his words, and be sank Into a
chair, with his elbows on bis knees anti
his face in bis hands. Mary ran to him
at once. There had been a little mo-
ment of fulteiing, but there was no
real surrender In her.
Dropping on her knee beside him, she
said coaxingly: “Don’t give up. You
are a man; you must not surrender
and let me, a girl, prove the stronger.
Shame upon you when I look up to
you so much and expect you to help mp
be brave! I will go. I will arrange
myself in some way. Oh, why aui I

cause it stood between her and Bran
don.
She soon coaxed him out of his de-
spondency, and we began again to plan
the matter in detail.
The girls sat on Brandon’s cloak and
he and I on the camp stool and a box.
Mary’s time was well occupied -in
vain attempts to keep herself covered
with the cloak, which seemed to have
a right good will toward Brandon and
me, but she kept track of our plans,
which, in brief, were as follows: As
to her costume, we would substitute
long trunks and Jack boots for shoes
and hose, and, as to doublet, Mary
laughed and blushingly said she had a
plan which she would secretly Impart
to Jane, but would not tell us. _ She
whispered it to Jane, who, as serious
as the lord chancellor, gave judgment
and “thought it would do.” We hope
so, but were full of doubts.
This is all tame enough to write am
read about, but I can tell you it wai
sufficiently exciting at the time. Threi
of us at least were playing with tliai
comical fellow, Death, and he gave tin
game interest and point to our hearts'
content
As to the elopement, it was deter-
mined that Brandon should leave Lon-
don the following day for Bristol and
make all arrangements along the line.
He would carry with him two bundles,
bis own and Mary’s clothing, and leave
them to be taken up when they should
go a-sliipbbard. Eight horses would
be procured, four to be left as a relay
at an inn between Berkeley castle and
Bristol and four to be kept at the ren-
dezvous some two leagues the other
side of Berkeley for the use of Bran-
don, Mary and the two men from Bris-
tol who were to act as an escort on the
eventful night. There was oue dis-
agreeable little feature that we could
not "provide against nor entirely elim-
inate. It was the fact that Jane and
I should be suspected as accomplices
before the fact of Mary’s elopement,
and, as you know, to assist in the ab-
duction of a princess is treason, for
which there is but one remedy. I
thought I had a plan to keep ourselves
safe if I could only stifle for the once
Jane’s troublesome and vigorous tend-
ency to preach the truth to all people
upon all subjects and at all times and
places. She promised to tell the story
I should drill into her, but I knew the
truth would seep out in a thousand
