Deereedby Fate.
A dark, stormy midnight.
in Judge Glynn's spacious mansion
with its velvet carpets and
curtains, its light and warmth and
luxury, there was no bint of
storm without.
But something far worso than
.'•torm or tempest had swept down
over llio home of tho Glynns that
A crowd of white faced trembling
servants were grouped fearfully
about something wh ch lay upon
tho Yclvet'covcrcd floor of
tho great library in tho rnullow
light of a swinging lamp; some*
thing with ghastly, upturned face,
and wild, vacant, staring, sightless
eyes; while over tho moss*grecn
carpet a flood ot crimson Olocd was
pouring in a fearful tide.
Beside t hat p rostra to form, clad
in a snowy caahmcro robe trimmed
with swnnsdown, knelt a girl of
twenty. Beautiful as a dream, with
her flowing, gcldcn hair and great,
brown, velvety eyes; she crouched

E. ther Glvnn was n beauty, heir*

m which ^he had moved; sho had
her father’s idol, and there he

else—ay! that was tho sharpest
the fnost unbearable woe—bo
had died by his own hand". Yes.it
*
had gono to her own
om for tho nigfit. She bad kissed
father tenderly; she liked to ro*
it afterwards, how sho had
turned back to kiss him once again,
had begged him to retire. His
face had grow very grave, c.rcT lie
held her to his heart with ten*
Jor kisses, as he answered sadly:
f'rfjall rest soon, my darling,
Tlinnlt God, there is rest for the
weary 1
Was there? Would rest
in the great hereafter for suicide?
awful question asked itself
now; the girl’s head fell upon the
blood-stained breast, and ono long,
low wail of deathlike agony passed
her lips.
And s > Dr. Faulkser found hjr.
Maurice Fauikner, who had looked
tpon this proud, petted beauty and
hoiress as lovely as a ba’-ler^y, a
bilot thistledown floating in tbe
goldtn atmosphere of pleasure and
ration. He stooped now tftd laid

For there was no doubt

Faulkner.
Night and day ho was near her,
with his professional skill and* ten*
der care. lie installed an expert*
enced s.urso at her bedside, and to
gethe: tiiey fought back grim death
step by step, inch by irch.
Look' 1 back upon her narrow
cseap .her wondbred why she
bad lived, when so many who were
loved and needed, p' ^'-ed over to
too great majority.
Sho waa thinking of it all, one
lovely spring day, as sho reclined
upon a broad coucti in tho pretty
room which had been hot boudoir,
but which sho knew she must soon
leave forever.
Pa’e as a lih, fragile ns a snow
wreath, her eyes much too large for
her face, sho lay there listlessly
lurning over in her weary brain
ways and means of procuring her
own living, when tncro was t’Vo rus
tl 0 of silken skirls a waft of faint
perfume, and turning her sad eyes,
they fell upon an uucxpccted visi
tor.
A lady, with a dt.rk, rich, bru*
nette beauty, clad in a silk gown,
wiLh rubies glowing like flames at
her lhio.it, in her small ears, and
about her snowy wrists. A cold,
proud, haughty woman of fashion,
Mis. Chilton, Dr. Faulkner's only
'
sister.
There were a few words of cool
welcome; Dora Chilton sank, into
an easy chair; and went on
I am glud.lo find you so nearly
recovered, Miss Glynn. You owe
your life to my brother’s profes*
gional services, lie lias devoted
himself to you. and I wished to
drop joa a hint. Maurice is cm.
gaged to my husband’s sister,
lian Chilton, and—pardon tnc, Es.
ther, but you ought to have sus*
peeled it—she is beginning to grow
jealous of Dr. Faulkner’s unprofes*
sionai interest in yourself. You
must not forget that you are alone
in the world now, my child, and—
As if I could ever forget Ihojdte
unpleasant affair bore, Mrs. Chit -
too! panted the girl, starting to a
sitting posture. I am exceedingly
sorrv if Miss Chilton is so extreme
at
;y silly as to care because Dr.
Faulkner—who was a dear friend
of my father’s in bitter times—was
good enough to stand by a desert*
e d, desolate girl in her ilincss,
when there was no one else* Lis*
ten, Mrs. Chilton: I am fully aware
of your purp oso in calling here to*
day. Dr. Faulkner is only my
physician. I 'im poor now, but I
shall cancel my indebtedness to
him as 1 would to a strange**. And

, Somewhat dtsconsert.
(. h,lion took her depatture.
Esther delerm.ned to get
an d from that day mado
progvc3s.
The first thing that she did when
she was able to attend to business
affairs, was U* dispose of a
jewels, with which she.
liquidating her indebtedness to
Faulkner.
And so it came to p^ss ono dsy
that ho was astonished—grieved—
indignant at the leception of a
cheek for u eouzideruulc .mount
from h;s la’, e patient, Miss Glynn.
And directly afterward
Glynn mansion was sc!i under the
auctioneer’s hammer, and Esther
disappeared from the city*.
Dora Chilton rejoiced when she
hoard of it, fo sho had made up her
mind that her brother should mar*
rj pretty, insipid, Lillian Chilton,
and no mere nobody like Esther
.
Glynn must be allowed to stand in
the way.
And . . Maurico T* . Faulkner: T ~. .I n How ,,
hard ho tried to forget Esther, this
noble J voung y Jisciplo ‘ of Escula*
pious, nobody ever knew. -
But there 5s no use in striving
against destiny. When fate or*
dams, what is to , bo, will ,, , be. One
cannot , help , inclining . slightly to
falatism, when one marks the
course of events in this gray old
world of ours.
* * * * * ♦
Down in a quiet nook—a drowsy
little country retreat in tho far
South, hidden av.ay amid a green
forest of fragrant lines--Esther
Glynn had taken up the burden ol
life most bravely. She bad given
all to her father’s creditors, and
with a * itifuUy small sum upon
which to depend had at length
found cmplcyhien.t as a school
teacher in this l'aroff Southern
town.
She would have sent a line—a
written message—to her kind phy
sician, that he ni ght bid her fa
well forever bcfoio going forth to
her new life, but a note bad come
to her before she had left her old
home; a cruel, stinging lino from
Dora Chilton, which told her that
her br**’.lifer's interest in the datigh*
tet of a suicido had injured him
greatly in tne eyes of society, and
begging Esther to go away for*
ever.
She bad <. ?o, and slowly but
surely the wound was healing over,
for Time, the great healer, can
cure.
Sho sat upon the broad gallery
of tho old brown farmhouse where
she made her homo ono evening,
watching the sun set and resting
alter the labors of tho day.
All at once a horso went teat ing
by, like a mad e 'rlurc.
A few moment iatcr the old far
nier, with his stai wart sons, boro
into the lo w-ceilinged sitting room
the body of a man.
Ho had been hrown from his
horse ai d badly ojured.
One giance ini > iho still, white
and Esther saw that f'ato had
found her out. It Yvas Maurice
Faulkner.
I o,ve him my fe, the girl mur*

He opened iiis yes, and they
