The flower* wor,! pot bluer her eyes, and there was not. a blossom of them all that was fairer to look upon than she. in l.er fresh and innocent git lissom. 1 could but sigh a: I looked at her, so happy, so unconscious of pain. You will be sorry.’ I repeated. ' you invite Bessy Nordleigh here just now.’ ‘I na sure,’ pouted Ruth, in pre¬ tended petulance, ‘you pay your niece a very poor compliment, if you think the first beautiful woman he sees will win from her the heart of her lover.’ ‘jPhilip it a notorious flirt,’ I said. 4 Was aunt,’ responded Ruth, good humoredly. Her faith in her lover was not to be shaken. It was the desire of my life to see my uiece married to Philip Haines, he son of an obi and very dear friend, and a magnificent fellow—handsome, brilliant high-spirited, and possessing but. one# fault that amounted to anything. He was notoriously ficKle in his attach ments. Every pretty face curried him captive for the time. It wantedbut one month of the wed ding-day. B**ssy Nordleigh was to be chief bridesmaid, hut that was no reasou why she should be invited to keep the lovers’ company a month beforehand. She came to the Willows the middle of formed August.'*I »*a' see taller her than yet—a superb¬ ly woman, and shoulders, most, with a royal poise of head a luxuriance of reddish brown hair, and great tawny eyes that gleamed like topazes one moment and wer« black as night the next. In her presence, my slender, pure-faced beside Ruth tall scarlet was like a snow-drop some heart¬ ed tropical flower. Philip behaved precisely as I had prophesied he would, only consi ’erably more so. In less than a w'ek he was more infatuated vv th Bessy than he had been with RullL -The wonder was that* Ruth was so unconscious of it. Boating, ridi g, wa king, it was Bes¬ sy Nordleign upon whose glance and smile Philip Haings hung, as though therein had dwelt, some magical elixir. I said nothing of this to Ruth.

People who are fond of each other lin l ciumces somehow of saying <i word, without all the world to hear.

Only »n« of the gM j ef8 vvere aolttze and that ruined low, but eroupiug as near as I dared, and keeping in the shadow of the trees, I could see, in the twilight of the dim room, Philip Haines sitting upon some cushions at Miss Nordleigh’s feet, with |on:* ot her hands clasped in his, and his j eye* her bt*uutifnl lustt nud face. in a breathless if glow hand upon or other was | slowly threading the lock* that fell over his white Forehead.

It was mean and cowardly, I felt, to hide there and watch them, but a terror had come upon me h st these two were going' to give us all the slip at last, without a word ol warning, and I thought I could never bear the disgrace ot that. So I waited, with my heart throbbiog guiltily, hoping to catch some word that woulu be a clue to the truth. Chance favored me. They rose presently, and sauntered out into the shaded walk. bushes, Dropping upon my knees in the Bessy Nordleigh’s silken skirt almost touched me, as it trailed by over the damp stones of the walk. I rose up after she had passed me, and went in somewhat tranquilied. I had heard her say, in those sweet and measured tones of hers, ‘I shall never How marry should any I one, Philip.’ know that while refused to marry him, she was endeavoi ing to win from him a promise not to | tion many Ruth, which he in sheer desperu | refused to give, hoping so to win herself at a»t j with I think all the Bessy Nordloigh strength loved of Philip ' *^* passionate her i un sc *P^* r, cd nature.

Something of what Bessy Nordleigh endured in those days vfre gathered af¬ terwards, from fragmentary jottings in her journal, but no human being could ever guess all. Wednesday, Philip and Ruth twelve were, to be married at o’clock precisely and take the cars north at. one. ‘ 1 u Neither Philip nor Miss Nordleigh made their appearance at breakfast, but no alarm was excited on that account. It was not the first time such a thing had happened. But when eleven o’-, elock came with no news of either ol the delinquents, I began to suspect that it meant mischief. I sent Miss Nordleigh’s maid to her door first, and she brought back word 1 that no response had come to her knock. I went up then myself, and finding, bv turning the knob, that the door was unfastened. I opened it softly, and look¬ ed in. As I suspected, the apartment was tenantless. Of course the pair had given us all the slip at last. But to make sure, I went next to Philip’s door, and, after knocking tried it. It was locked. I was considerably excited by this time, and sent for assistance at once, and had the door forced. The others stood back and let me go in first. But I only managed to stagger across the threshold, and stop, clinging by the door" post. They were Both There. Philip, dressed a3 on the night be!ore, half re¬ clined upon the bed, his face towards me.

Voices of Grace-—I t is marvelous ■ nd beautiful to observe how various r- re the voices of free grace. ‘I am thirsty, says one. ’Gome to the wa ters,, she cries. ‘I am hungry,’ says another. ‘Then eat yo that which is good,’ she says, ‘and let your soul delight itself in fat ness.’ ‘But I am poor, and have nothing to buy with.’ ‘Come buy wine and without money and without price.’ ‘Wc are weary,’ sigh the laborers in the sun-beaten fields. ‘Come unto Me,’ breathes her answer like a breeze from the waters, and 1 wi 1 give you rest.’ ‘Cast thy burdens on the Lord, and He will sustain thee,” she whispers to the pilgrim ready to faint on the ‘Behold the fountain,’ she cries to the guilty ; ‘the fountain opened for sin and nut-leanness.’ Wanted the Man Tarown In.—A Canadian clergyman wascalle on not long since by an Irish girl, who asked how much he charged for ‘marrying anybody.’ He reylied, dollar ha'll',’ *a and a and Biddy departed. A few evenings later, on being sum moned to the door, he was accosted by ' the same person, wi'h the remark that I she had come to be married. 1 ‘Very well,’ said the minister; • perceiving with astortisment that she was alone, lie continued, ‘Where is the tnan V ‘And don’t you find the man for a dollar and a half ?” Terms Three Dillars.
