KO-HANA-SAN. [Con'itm.d from first page.] fsrvor that was a revelation to him to be told why his people would uot lore her ar.d want her to he happy, and why sheeould not go with him. At laat, re’uctantly yielding to her tears and entreaties, he confessed that in hit country dancing girls were not often sought out in marriage by tliosd of his degree, nor were tiny consul erd of much moment, and that to take a foreign one to his mother's home would he counted unto him a disgrace. Then Ko-hana san dried her tears, and, faintly smiling, said : “Well, you shall go, then willful one, by vourself. Hut when?” And he said lie would slay another week if she wished it. But no, ho said, .she did not wish it. He should go on the morrow. Only, first, he must come and say goodby to bar. Ho should leave her now, and he could return in the cool of the evening, and the would bid him farewell then. And as he went away she watched him with a face that grew pale and ■ad. For Ko-hnna-um had tasted a second time of the tree of knowledge and had found no sweetness hut on'y bitterness therein. Then, with a sigh, h * went away to her dressing room and prepared to make an elaborate toilet for the even ing. • e * * * * It waa with a lightened heart that Paul returned to the little house to sea the last of Ko-hana nan For he loved the ways of pleasant neaa and peace, and now that it was over ho knew the thought of telling her that he must leave her had troub led him a good deal—and for her sake, not his own. Already lie w# a little -weary of bis lotus eating. And he rejoiced that Providence had made the heart* of Geiahas light and their gritt* eaay of assuagement. lie leaked into the sitting room and •aw that, though empty of her pres ence, it waa gay with pink convolvuli, newly set in quaint cups and carved bamboos. And then, going to seek her, he called softly down the passage, “Ko hana-san!” But thero was no answer. So he stole to the door of her sleep ing room and looked in. §he was lying on soma cushions, her head pillowed on on small hand and clasped in the other a single lotus bad. Her eyes were closed, and she lay ■till, although he spoke her name again. “Little lazy one,” he said, as he bent over her, “wake up, I 11m here!’’ He noticed that she had taken off her sash and kimono and was lying in her embroidered unrlerdress. Her hair was elaborately done, and a faint tinge of red lay, like the dust on a butterfly’s wing on the opaque whiteness of her cheeks, where the thick fringe of dark lashes, stirless- There was a lamp burning at her head, and another at her feet, and beside her was the samisen with which she had so often accompanied herself in her songs to Lira. The room was full of flower*, the •ir heavy with their scent, and with s Btrange oppressive stillness. He stooped and laid his lips on tho hand that held the lotus, and as ho did so he saw that it clasped also a ribbon 'on which one word vvss writ ten—“Sayouara." And then he understood that for Ko-hana-san there would be more •asiles or tears. He had counted en the simple, laughter loving na.ure of the Japanese to tide her over any passing grief or disappointment, but some touch of more advanced civilization hsd come to her—who knows in what manner? —and had imbued her with the tragic despair, the passion and the pathos, the supreme rejection of an inartistic possibility, that belongs to a more cul tivated order of exotics. The flower he had plucked and near his heart had fallen unheeded while he stepped aside, and inadvert ently he had crushed its bright beauty with his retreating footsteps. Some instinct of a kindred fate had surely saddened Ko-hana-san’s tender fancy when she wept for the lotus bud that ■uunyJaHcrncou. Poor little Geisha! She had tasted for the third lime of the tree of knowledge, and, not con tent with having learned the lessons of love nad of life, had mastered yet another, mat of death.—ln Town.
