CHAPTER XVIII. Just va the sun was sinking behind the es’ of the nor:hernmost spur of the Sierra le Pevaguilla, Nina made ber way unob-erv-

* But how long will she be safe ? queried | Leon, ‘ She is s4id to be an intiare of the tiger's den.’ ’ . +1 have atbessige for yoo, Senor, thet may rest your miad io that particular,’ ao- nounved Nios, «My laiy bade me to tell you that ween sie was able to. leave S.n “Magtin, -bo should be a homeless wanderer

*N5t while Lica Marillo has heslth and strength, exclaimed the youth impetucusly. eT, ber Come,” interpoved Bertra who had now joine] the group. ‘ Bear to her werd frome me, Nina, that wien she seeks m: here, sie shall find a safe and com- fortable shelter. And you may te!l her one thing more: Tell her that the hour in| which she seeks me shall be the dawning of a brigh er and better day. Give her hope | of goming péate, api sie will imptove faster; find besssuted that this ‘hope shallnot be without strong-end deep foundations Let ber ome to us... [t will be betier so.’

‘And,’ added Juan Brave, ‘tell your lady tha: the Gipsy chief will be her friend Had. it ‘een for his interest he wcu'd have serva i the alcalde ; bet such is his interes: no longer It isfor his interest to gerve Kstelie i’Avilla, and he will doso, You say the laly is improving That is good. isut I e.a help her to im rove more rapidly.

Nina took the phial, and promised that she wou!d, at least, try the experiment.

‘If my word is of any use,’ said Leon, as Nina heid the phial in her baud, * you may trust the word of the Gipsy. Be sure thai

our lajy takes the antidote,’

Nina seemed fully assured by this, for

be put the phial away in ber bo-om as one puts, away a precious thing ; after which Leoa ad led :

* Aoi now will you meet me here to- morrow ecvesing, at this same hour, and bring we iutelligence of Lady LKstelle’s condition ?

Nina promised that she would.

*And ia the meantime,” suggested Bertrand, * you will keep an eye upon the wlealde. Sleep not while he has access to your laJy’s apartment.’

* Yes enough to last until to-morrow,’

‘Then give that regularly, aol if there is no change for the better by to-morrow, I wi send for the physician.’

Afer Don Bernardo had gone, Estelle got up. and walked across the floor, At first Nina ass‘sted her ; bat she soon wi-hed to try the expertment alone, and she founv herself stronger even than sha had expected,

‘ [trust no', Nios. It we can blind the

physician a'l may be well. Daring the day Wstelle’s strength of nerve increased, and when evening came she declared that she felt almostias strong as ever. When the sun had touched the top of the mouatain Nina glided forth upou her mis<iov to the old cak where she found Leon Murillo and Juan Biavo. Bertrand | was.engaged elsewhere. It was a strange) sight te see those two men thus friendly to-| gether; but Nina knew something of the erratic disposition of the Ziveali when svlf- intérest was concerned, so she did wot wonder.

Leon was overjoyed when he learned of Esteile’s improvement, and a murmur of thanks to God dropped from his hps when Niva toid hia that ber mistress woud probably leave the castle ou the evenmy of the next day.

* She will come hither ?”

« Yes Senor, aod sbe will trust hereelf in | your care. Lf she can contrive to deceive) the physician to-morrow morning all my be} well ; but she fears that when be feels her | pulse, he will detect the vigorvus flow 0! | blood.’

Este’ le rested her band upon ber attend- ant’s bosom as she spoke. Nina wourd ber arms.e%out ber neck, and tenderly replied :

* Devr lady, if L possessed a love such as I know Leon Murillo feels for you, all the wealth of the world—aye even Iite itself, could » 6t’parchase it,” If he loveg’ you not with a love thatean never die, then all signs wre false, and my owu understanding geae from we’

Before Nios could answer there came a mervous rap upon the door, and pre-ently afterwards Don Bernardo entered: K-telle hid ber face ‘upon the pillow, and pretended to sleep.

* How is your lady this evening ?’ asked the bivalgo ip a whisper.

* Then mark me: All the blood that cir. culates through the arte:ies where the

‘Very well. 1 will be here; and Cap- tain Bertrand shail be here with me at your lady cannot come, you will be sure to come and repuat.’

Niba promised that she would, and short- ly ufterwards ‘she turned back towards the castle, She found Kstelie sitting by one of windows, and when she bad reportte} the re- sult of her mission,they weut to experiment- ing upse Jusu Bravo's lessou,,aud ere loug the secret Was fully mastered.

Un the fo jowing wornmg, at an early hour, the physica came, aud with oim came Don Bernardo.

* Llow is your lady this morning ?’ asked the ductor, as he approached the b.d.

* Alay!’ repiied Nina, with well feigned sorrow, * L dare not say.’

* Does she grow weaker ?”

‘ L fear sv, Sevor.’

The physician took a seat by the bedside, and reached after the patient’s wrist. Ustelle’s faee was shaded, and her fingers were pressed upon the large artery woich supplied the arm that the doctor had taken. For a full winute be searched in vaia for the pulse. Fioally be said, with a doubie shake of the head :

* She is much weaker—much weaker.’

He left her more medeine, and when he bad passed out iuto the ball, be storped aud spoke with the alca'de,

‘Senor, your fair ward is dying. 1 doubt if she lives through the day. It there is any business which needs her attention, you bad ¥etier present it to her this after- noon.’

* I willdo #0, doctor. But tell me: Oun you fully comprehend the nature of her disease ?

‘I am free to confess that I cannot, Senor. There are diseases the springs of which lie beyond the power of buwaa ken, and this is one of them. [ ean only deter- nine that it is a sudden and swift consuming of the vitality; butwhat-hay caused it | caunot tell,’ *

and towards the mipdle of the fore- noon the alealde followed him.

[£ will lead the whole wititary force of Denia against him, and swoep him and his raseally band from the face of the earth.’

Wile the alealde was thus riding away, stelle was up and dressed, feeling most as strong and well asever. She bad eaten a hearty breakfast, she ate a hearty dinuer ; and when eveuing came she wos prepared to flee from the casile, Her jewels and money were safely packed, and Nina made up a buacle of su b clothing as was indespensua bly necessary. . Late in the afternoon Don Ber- nardo’s step was heard io the hall, and Kstelle quickly sought her bed, while ber companion darkened the windows,

* Hush ?? whispered Nina, placing her finger upon her lips as the alcalde ensered. ‘L think my lady sleeps. She cannot bear disturbance. If you would see her again alive, you had better gege upon ber pow.’

‘Never miud | will retire to my own appartments, and when you think she is dying you may call me,’

The shades of aight at length fell over hill aud forest, and Ksretle and Nina glided noiselessly out from the domicile, leaving the court by the pustern, and goining the garden beyoud without having beea detve:- ed. ‘They were moving ou towards the forest when the sound of a fuotfull crused them tostop, andio a moment more they heurd a voice demanding :

* Who goes there ?’

As quickly as possible they darted into 4 thicket of vleanders, and shortly afterwards a man passed cidse by them muttering very plainly :

* Padre Santo! they were women | am sure- Some thieving Gitanas prowling round. [ll have a watch set.’

*[t is Francisco Alvarez,’ whispered Nina, after the man bad passed on. * Bui come —he is gove now le is too much of a coward to stop at uo ght where he thinks a Gipsy is lurking *

‘The girls ewerged from their hiding place, aod ere long gained the forest pa h, where Nina asked Kstelle to lean upon her arm,

* Nowo,Nisa, | am srrong and well, Ihe thought of freedom from that wicked man's power is be:ter thau medicine, He is wel- come to wy wealth, siace 1 exohange it tur a happier home.’
