lieved at her quietude. He was ginA
there had been no scene. He had almost
expected one. Then he stooped hastily
and kissed her forehead lightly, just
brushing it with his lips, and turning;
hastened away.
Ho was Roger Hastings, the son of
wealthy parents; he traced his ancestry
bock for many generations. He had got
all out of his college course that he cared
for, and he was going to see the world
pretty thoroughly for the dozen years to
come.
It would be strange If ho did not care
to gather on occasional floorer by the way-
aide as he went
And Pauli ta? She watched Mm as long
as her eyes could tell Ids shape; watched
lilm pass briskly off Into the twilight
She put her hand in the bosom of her
dress and touched tenderly the ring she
wore upon a blue ribbon—the ring
that be had given her—the solid bend
with its quaint setting of twin turquoises,
like two blue eyes gazing steadily out
ward. She knew he would be true to her.
She knew he loved her.
Then Pauli ta came back to herself out
of a pleasant dream into which she had
been drifting, and remembered that she
must go to lied at once in older to rise
early and finish the fine work in time.
“1 never saw that ribbon around your
neck before,” said the chambermaid, sud
denly. “What is it—a ‘Gospel’ you’re
wearing?”
Pauli ta hesitated.
“Yes,” she said, softly. “It—It keeps
harm away.”
In a fortnight the family were at New
port.
Paullta wondered bow soon she would
bear from her lover. She looked for a
letter any day. He would write to
Newport, or even It ho did not, the letter
would bo forwarded from the city house.
Pauli ta dreamed a good deal—day
dreams; while she sewed, or while she
helped the governess to tako the children
for walks.. Paullta dreamed by day and
by night. She dreamed as she walked by
the ocean and looked out toward the blue
horizon rim.
But no letter came.
She wore her ring within her bosom.
Sometimes she took It out and looked
at it and remembered his voice when
he gave it to her; remembered his soft
langh when be warned her not to let
odd touch the stones and darken them.
Sometimes—aye, very often—die kissed
the ring, and said, “My Roger!”
But the days passed, and the weeks
passed, and no letter came, no word or
sign of her lover.
At length Paulita’s face began to grow
thin and pale, her eyes seemed burger,
darker—for great hollows came about
them. She did not care for food. She
did not sleep a*, night.
And still she waited for his letter.
Ono afternoon the mistress bade her to
do some work that needed the mistress’
supervision.
Paulita sat palely watching her stitches
and plying her needle. Some strange in
fluence had moved her to take the tur
quoise ring from her bosom and place it
upon her wedding ring finger. Her hands
were very thin and white, to match the
pallor of her faee, and the blue and heavy
gold shone markedly.
Was there any strangeness in this, that
a friend of Pauli ta’s mistress, an intimate
friend, a brusque, elderly, somewhat ec
centric lady, should drop in for a chat,
and so sit with Pauli ta’s mistress in her
boudoir?
Paulita rose with on inquiring glance
at her mistress. But the latter ably
smiled languidly.
“You need not go, Paulita. Continue
your work.” And to her visitor: “This
