I waa so weak that I could not alt up, waa much emaciated, and cooghed incessantly.

He appeared surprised yet re 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 Ayer's Pills core constipation, improve the appetite, promote digestion, root ere health ac tios, and regelate every function.
