But the hous" looked so sedate nml alto¬ gether respectable t-hat it seemed impossible hut that everyt hing was as usual inside. The door stood invitingly open, as it should on such a balmy s'u miner evening, the light streaming bountifully out on the walk. A on I istropho mi rely would have left some sign, some | fatal mark somewhere to eurdlo one's blo>xl from afar. How foolish of this black eyed maiden and him to rush at the top of their speed in an agony of suspense only to Hud Bertha sitting at the parlor tab! in.Id eyed and serene as he had used to know her! Sho had only stepped across tho stn et perhaps. How she would vronder to see him hurry¬ ing in his unreasonable fear into her pres¬ ence! But he would pour into her ears such a torrent of words of love that she would bless him a thousand times that he had eomo back, and their happiness would date from to-night. Perhaps she had tender confi¬ dences for him, too, of how wonderfully sho had grown into the love he had longed for, and she would whisper to him that the few weeks of estrangement had been a blessing of God for her, and he need never again com¬ plain of tho coldness of her love. Life is not so serious and tragical an affair as one some times thinks; tilings don’t always plunge into the ruin they are pointed toward. By the time Philip stopped into the door, ho had fully discounted his expected relief ; indeed, had almost persuaded himself that ho Dad had no misgivings, there seemed so littlo sense in misgivings. But lie did not find the blue eyed woman ha loved at her parlor table. He looked for a eroehet -needle or a square of canvas, which might show the marks of recent work; but the round table was in perfect order. Tho little book shaped card basket stood near tho bronze base of the drop lamp. A largo red morocco bound volume, called “The Dresden Gallery,” was tilted up n little by n bits and gold book of Swinburne’s poems, on which it had been laid. The gracefully carved book- rack was fuil, all but one space the volume of poems might have fitted into. "Just as I arranged it after tea,” said Jane Graves, moving uneasily about. “For heaven’s sake be still,” be exclaimed, lie Mopped out into the hall. "IVh;,-, hero is her shawl,” he said, with a lightened _ heart. “It it. her hetivv shawl that is gone;” the girl looked peculiarly at him when she added almost under her breath, “the one she takes on evening drives.” Philip shot a glanco of sudden intelli¬ gence at li'T, and terrible suggestions and reeolj.-ctions cam-' crowding their hateful the.usiu;:s upon him. The mad blood seemed congesting about his heart, and yet his faeo blazed like fire, “(food (foil!” be shouted hoarsely, “if you dare to breathe it 1 will choke tho envious life out of you.” Then ho caught the boil knob at the door and rang it fiercely, and then again, before its echoes lmd ceased, .and again and again. “.Vttd is there another fire, your honor?’ Tint broad faced chambermaid hud eomo up from the kite lion ami stood with arms akimbo, trying to make her rich Irish voice heard above 1 he sounding gong. “Do you kmu. win re your mistress i “No-.t; if she bo noi inside, intitule.” “Didn't si to go over to a neighbor's *,rue- where?" quc.dtened Philip eagerly. “Not (hat i S nows on, sir.” “Has anybody been here! Didn't you tend door, you ninny!” ‘“The bell didn't; ring till now, sir; but lave me think a fit. ’ and the woman rub! ■ d Is. r head medit :i ively. “Quick," cried Philip, between hope and fear. “Don't scare me, sir, or I can't do nothin!;.” lie moved bis feet restlessly on the inlaid lut'd floor, and he had bowed bis head ns if studying the artist's design; but it was for fear he should catch some terrible signifi¬ cance in Jano Graves’black eyes. He could hear Iter dress rustic; he knew she was look¬ ing at him, waiting for him to lift hi; face; but he would not have met her eyes at that moment for all the world. “Yis, there was a rumblin’team come up, and I thought I hearn a man come to t Do dure and thin go back; but the bell didn't ring?sir. and 1 didn't make no count on if. No, sir, I hcvn't ltcarn missus movin' roun’ sense, and I knows sho be all over the house before." The creature's tongue was unloosed and sho kept on talking, but Philip had bounded up the broad stairs and thrown open the dot >r of the room he thought was Bertha's. In another moment tho gas blazed up to the ceiling and lie stood, wild eyed, looking from side to side as if he thought to find a heart breaking story written ail over tho gold pajk red walls. Then his eyes became fixed on the black walnut bureau with its long mirror coming down through the cen¬ ter. On tho marble slab at the foot of tho mirror he saw a satin covered handkerchief case, and pinned upon it a piece of paper. In three steps be had clutched a little per¬ fumed note, with a ribbon fastened on it ns if for a signal, a delicate bow of white ribbon. Mr. Ellingsworth's name was written on it. It was alt here, and yet Philip hesitated a moment as a man would hesitate to cut off a maimed and poisoned limb. And it was al¬ most unconsciously at last that his nervous lingers tore the note open and let th • bit of white ribbon flutter to the floor. He : c me 1 to read very slowly and the flush Inch <! f;\ m his face and left it very calm. Th tv couhl be nothing very thrilling written there rur ly. But every line and curve was branded for¬ ever on iiis heart. ••1 haw t-vnc with Curran. I knew 1 could rot stand your reproaches, but 1 can only lie happy with th-' man I love.

Well, that is a joke: a man who don't wear cuffs, and Bertha loves him! Why, I r.' -vf r cerdd dress to suit her." .And he t'in w liims- if into a chair and burnt into cone u! -ion of laughter tiii the tears came. and “Weil, there may be something else,” he sb.pp- d jauntily up to the bureau again. it: oh! to be sure, our engagement ring.” Ha s held it up t o catch the sparkle of the solitaire diamond. “Yes, yes, a very proper and deli* cats spirit, i wasn't mistaken in Bertha, she always bad a nice sente of propriety.” Ke crinv little unsteadily toward tbt two women.

Ilow it must amuse tho im¬ mortal r when a man attempts to sndain if the only tragedy pitch in his extterienct#! one can got tho true point of view, there is no such thing as u noble situation, « glorious victory or a desperate dilemma. The dignity of sorwtr is a ridiculous misnomer. Everything is only more or less funny ac¬ cordin'- to its pretentious-liens—for example, the tMtoi; idling denouement of his love epi¬ sode. Now bomb, tiio chambermaid, with a face like a pumpkin and eye; like saucers, was a suitable lay figure for such an occasion. “IViiv■, 1;, ; e, Xorah, this is really- a very go ■diamond. I liought it for the liest; per- i i i in pre«. mt it to you. Berilia, your late f:b' . 1 ine^n, was a large woman:no doubt you can wear it over your little linger. < A... idir it as a reminder of this charming evening. Ah, let me put it on, you are not u- 1 to jewels—tkun. Now, my love, you tuny ru.t down stair; and show your pretty pre. cut.’’ lie turned bis .! range ly bright eyes to the wall at the foot of lb rtha's bod. "Mv picture, too. How the girl's heart must have glowed night, and morning over it.” lie took it down and held it before him n moment. "A foolish face," he muttered between bis t e-h, tha wild merriment fading out of his features. He bent and laid the picture glass upward on tho floor, then he ground it v o::.;ly beneath the heel of his boot, and walked away without deigning to cast an¬ other lc«)k at it. Bert ha's pure bed, which her graceful form had piv-.x .1 so many years—an inscrutable a-.vo ere;.!, over liiin: it seemed impious to lo be fell on his knees and buried his hot fn :> hi the pillow where ho fancied her head had rente.!. “< h, my lost darling, my lost Bertha, you have taken ell tho joy and hope of my life wit h yon," and his slight frame shook with foni'l- t robs, liko the death throes of a break¬ ing heart. Then be rti*> in bitterness of soul to his foe'. . ; • ,'s re no way to drown the deep Settled pti-i about his breast? Were there no other women in the world? IIo had heard Unit ;■■ enough there was no salvo for a broken heart so quick and sure as another woman’s ki - ■ IRt almost stumbled over Jano Graves, who lay across the tkrcshhokl in a dead faint, l't was blit the work of a moment to li-ml over her and lift her in his arms. Bnt h ; Yveuid not let her lie on Bertha’s bed; no, not to v ;vc her life; and ho bore her through th- hall to another chamber. It was a slight girli.-h form he held, and need not have been to tiuplra-tnt a burden. But bo laid her down on the first resting place he could find, and lifted her feet w ith delicate gentleness on the bed. lie removed the high pillows from under her head, so that sho could breathe more easily, and, true gentleman that he v.m covered her pretty feet and ankles with some light wrap. I I mi §3 K' .1 • ‘— lie almost stumbled over Jane (Irarcs. A green tinted cologne bottle stood nearby and he bethought himself to dashtheeoo! contents into her face, and felt quite n doc¬ tor's surprise to seo any good result follow his ministrations. The banished blood stole iow- lv back into her olive cheeks. He bent over her and lifted her shapely little hands, ns dainty as a princess', and tried to arrange them in some graceful position. How pretty she was: if her lips were a little full that was a very pardonable fault. A Midden mad thought warmed his body; why not wait till sha opened her eyes, this charming little girl, and then swear to her that he loved her! What was love then that such a pretty face and form as this should not have it? Site eyas no cold woman; her kisses and endearments—but his eyes had grown cold and hard while he looked at her. I:' sho were a Cleopatra she could Is- nothing t< him, her kisses would only stifle him with her passion: her clinging soft arms about hi; neck would only strangle him. He knew to his sorrow what it was to love, and no pretty sham, no matter how its voluptuous artifice, might make his hot blood surge through his veins, could still for one moment the i: tutor- j tal longing it only mocked. Bhe moved a \ little as s' ■ lay: and ho started and went out. j The ;;'rl‘s eyes opened slowly on the rich j blue lambrequins and the rare frescoing of j the lieiou.; room. moment Hlie vague!_ If sho awoke u. 1 .; rich r one gen- do- j j i-otno tleman’s wife and her old lino of poverty w« past forever.

Then she remembered everything, and toe- from f!" august coach she bad unworthily pres ;, 1. Sho laid br.eb the great pillows and tried to smooth o', the outlines of her form on the spotless < mat rpane and then made h r v. ay down stab • The house was so still it fright¬ ened bar; R was as if everybody in the w. >r!d had died while she lay in her faint.

In Bertha Ellingsworth's own parlor it was, with her mother’s face looking down from the paint'd canvas, in the room where the daughter of tho house had so*coklly en¬ tertained tho heir of tho Breton mills. Ah! yes, and where sho had taught Curran, the prophet of the poor, to love her, and she the very essence of tho spirit he taught them to hate. But how her proud face would w ince now! If she were only here! Her father, the haughtiest of men, to everybody in t he great world beneath him cold as an iceberg, they said, arrogant us any duke of courtly circle, could it be' be praying, with Lot breath, the iove and the hand of his servant maid! Could it bo bo holding her so fondly in bis arms, where he might have gathered coy daine.s of the stateliest rank, lavishing honeyed words and mad endearments on his poor servant girl, whoso only nice dress it, w as he was crushing so recklessly! Ah! it wan worth the cost, if she had to tear her heart out, for all that wealth can buy will be hers. Site nasties her burning fare on his shoul¬ der and t-mpts hint to new caresses and new words of folly, that, he may not remember yet what a strange thing it is that lie is doing; that lie not think of repenting until his enthralled senses shall make him forget everything else rather than this sweet hour. Her wildest dreams are realized. Sho will lie one of the rich and the great whom the rest of the world bow down to. She will mako her husband's—yes, this man to be her hus¬ band, why should she he ashamed with him— she will make his friends all envy him ids beautiful wife; and as for their faded, fash¬ ionable women, with limp backs and blood¬ less veins, how it will plot, her to study the signs of jealousy on their listless faces. And Bertha Ellingsworth’s proud, false heart will ache with shame over the low born woman whom her father has made bis wife. “Has the train gone for the west?" asked a breathless voice at the Lockout station. “It's thirty minutes behind its time," growled tho ticket ngept. It was Philip Breton, who went back to the post to tie his hors ■ more securely. “Poor Joe, poor old boy," the lug white horse seemed more like to fall dead in Ills tracks than to try to It uk away. "A pretty hard gallop, wasn’t it, Joe, your breath will come easier in a minute, old horse.” His time was precious, but he lingered in au uncontrollable terra, f what he lmd eomo so far to see. Ho had thought he wanted to make sure. There might bo some mistake in the note, or even now, if she had changed her mind—but it was all folly, he saw it now. He had forgotten nil reason in one wild long¬ ing to seo Bertha again. But what was the ure of harrowing up his soul with nev/ pic¬ tures lie would pray God in vain to wipo out of bis memory ? But he had come so far, perhaps it would do no harm to look ;i t her once more. He had turned and was. walking along the platform, toward the ladies’ waiting room, lie glanced up the long stretch of straight track and saw in the distance the head li hf rf the engine, which seemed to him a pitiless monster, hastening on to seize liis darling and bear her to some hopeless ny ion of eternal night. lie must lmrry.
