JessT was helpingher withherhoots
ami habit as ho spoke, anil ns soon as
the last button wos in plueo Katherine
drew her criuisou Hob-Hoy eap tight
over her brown nnd went singing iuto
tho rain. They stood a few minutes nt
the open dour and wuteheil her head
long raeo through the swirling wreaths
of vapor, her vivid-crimson cap the
only point visible in the gray banks;
yet for those few moments they heard
her voice a some higher note pierced
the wet shroud iu whic'i she was en
veloped. " 'Will tin unit tell inri whiit she
siuirH?' " quoted the minister, an he j
turned pleasantly to his fireside; nnd
Jessy took up the verse and niiishoil it.
"Perhaps tha 'plaintive numbers (low,

And buttles lout? "go."
Jessy was partially right, but it was
not Kathcrino'.- nature to Bins tad
Bongs. 15"sidos, the wind and the ram
made her happy, anil her heart re
fused to believe 'that Hiehard Mowbray
had Kuiie away forever.
"l'eoplo do not come into life for
nothing," she argued, "and it was into
wy life he was Kent. Tlie old ring and
the old friendship were just the only
introduction Fate could manage. And
it is fin- more likely he came for my
weal t'tati for my wot.-. At any rate,
1 will believe thiH."
To such thought, mingled with the
exhilarating storm, she reached Lev-eus-hope
in high spirits. Hli habit
was waterproof, and hIic Hung it ilV
with a laugh, and then removing her
cap, he shook her hair free again.
Her cheeks were rosy, and the rain
drops lay like dew upon them. Her
eyes sparkled, her month was curved
with smiltQ and she brought the very
spirit of youth and vital joy into the
room with her. Jamie Wintoim was
sitting by tho window pretending
to read. Ho ni really watching fur
Katherine.
"Why, Jamie !" she snid. ''Will any
kind of a storm keep you away from
Levenn-hope ?"
"None, while you are here. Kath
erine. I have been so uneasy; hut
knew you would be annoyed if I caino
to meet you."
1 "Indeed I should! This lonely ride
to the manse is the last shred of lib
erty left me. I do not know w hat 1
should do without it. F.very other
hour of the day is, iu eoinn wv or
other, under his control and surveil
lance." "Uncle's words aro always worse
than his intents, I think."
"He says ho is going to send iuu
back to school."
"What have you beou doing Kat'u
ciine?" "I was, it seems, too civil tongues!.
Bud not attentive enough to you."
Wintoun colored painfully, but he
replied, with a great deal of spirit:
"Uncle Iirathous is too interfering
in my persi nal all'airs. I have not
complained of your treatment, Kath
erine. J.ven it l lia.l causo lor com
laint, T should not ask him to inter
fere." "And Jessy was quite as attentive
to Mr. Mowbray as I was."

a freedom in this matter that Kathcr
ino ought not to claim; but theu it ail
useless to say ho. Then there was a
few moments uf embarrassed silence.
Katherine wanted Wintoun to continue

was a painful one; ho could not iu

"Jamie, what do you think of Mr. j
Mowbray?" I
"You ought not to ask mo that J
question, Katherine." i
"Why?" I
' "Because you know I love you. How
can you expect mo to love a wan w ho
may be my rival?"
"Nonsense!" she said; hut Win
toun noticed that a vivid blush cov
ered her face and throat, and that she
went to the wiudow and began to sing
in order to hide her feeling. Iu a few
moments she returned to tho fireside
and said:
'He has gone to Edinburgh."
' Jt-.it he will return."
, 'How cau you tell that? T)id he
Bay so to you, Jamie?"
"My heart tells me so. He admired
you very much, Katherine. tyjP t'ot
blame hiui for that. Who could help
it?"
"Yet my guardian blames me for it,
Jamie. You will not let him send io
back to school?"
"liive me the right to protect you,
dearest! Then no one shall say a
word to cross you."
"Always that is the way!"she cried,
with tears in her eyes nnd voice. "I
am to become your wife in order to
escape my stepfather's dictation. It
would bo simply a change of masters,
ow no one can be generous because
no one is unselfish,"
"Do not bo so unjust, Katherine.

his lace, saw it l ( I n in miiloit I y hi
generosity of unselfish love. At that
moment the tall, ungraceful youth I
was almost handsome; and she gave
1, i -ii her hand and said siuij.ly:
"Thank you, Jamie!"
Then a footman brought in a tea- ;
tray, and Mis. Jirathuits cuine down ;
stairs. She was llushej and wor- j
ricd. and said : ,
"l.'ho laird has taken cold and fears !
a fever. '
Wintoun made somo sympathetic i
remark, but Katherine was lost in '
thought, and the men! was not a pleas- i
ant one. It was scarcely finished j
when the laird sent for his wife, and I
Katherine. ea.ting about for some
thing to pass the evening which would I
not permit Wiiiiouu too much oppur-
tunity fur cunversation, bethought ,
her of u new book n? border music;
and she proposed that they should
learn some of the songs together.
Wintoun was delighted. He knew
that ho cuiild sing, and to mingle hi-
voice with Kalherine's voice was u
rare pleasure. So they looked
through tho book, and Wintoun
struck boldly out with:
Mat.-
Mar.-
r.tt.-rl.-ian.lTi-vl-.tiVih-
He played the stirring notes with
spirit and deci-iou. Their voices
blended charmingly. And the room
seemed suddenly full of mounting
troopers ami the stir and bustle uf
galloping horses. There was no weak
Hole under Wintoiiu's lingers. The
men of Kskdalc and of Twistdale went
living past to bugle tones, and they
were just calling musically one to the
other:
-All Hie l ine bounds ure "V.-r iln- llorder!"
when Mrs. Hrathoiis entered the roum.
with a worried lace and a lifted hand-
"Katherine! Jamie!'' she cried.
"You must stop playing to-uight!
The laird is very nervous. lie says
it exciti s him, and he has some fever
already. He thinks both of you are
veiv unkind, and he insist on the
piano being closed at once."
Of course, he was obeyed, and Kath
eiiue then suggested a game of chess,
lint a chill bail fallen upon her sunny
moo 1. She was distrait ami discour
aged, and she moved her pieces with
out consideration. Wintoun had no
wish to checkmate her. He played as
badly as she did. At last Katherine
stood hastily up. She laid her bunds
over the hoard, looked steadily at her
antagonist, innl snid iu a voice vho.-e
tone was authoritative and deci-uvc:
"Jamie, we are both playing a false
game. Let us withdraw before fit hel
ot us lias to say. 'I have lust!'"
She then swept the pieces into their
boxes, closed the lid ainl put them
away. The action had a kind of pro
phetic fatcfuhiess, n prescience un
foreseen and unplanned, endued w ith
somewhat uf omnipotence. Its efl'eet
upuu Wintoun was almost that a
.-igu from heaven. He did not doubt
it, or analy.e it-i meaning, or ask
"Why?" it ali'ected him so. Ho only
felt that iu a moment all had changed
for him. A sudden despair invaded
I his heart. He kuew that lie had lust
Katherine. He might reason himself
back to hope, but nt the end all her
Mattering talcs would vanish, he was
sure. A pitiless truth had been
. , , , .
Hashed up.m hi
mseioilsuess that
hour, and hu could not dispute it.
Katherine was annoyed at herself.
Why had slie said those words.' 'Why
had she suddenly stopped their play'.'
I She felt iu the silence that followed a
I strange regret that she had spoken,'
j and that he had understood, 1'or :
i ouco her ever-ready thought failed
She could not iiiol a sentence
no, nor a word to sav
She stirred
'III"' tiro and moved the small tal
aside, and theu almost unwillingly
looked nt Wintonii. And her eyes
opened on him like n P-ook of Kevela
thin. Sighing deeply, he arrested his dis
mayed soul, ami tried to laid nonie
eoiimioiiplnce remark which would
dispel that uncanny sense of fateful
foreknowledge. He went to a large
w indo.v and drew aside the curtains.
The whole laud was wrapped in wind
ing-sheets of mist, with a ghost of
luooushiiio iu them; and for the first
time in his life he was aware of that I
occult world which every one carries I
about with him. '
"Katherine," he said sadly, "T w ill j
go homo now. I have got an niling ;
heart to night."
"I am sorry, Jamie, lint an ailing
heart is butter than a bad one, and ;
Iirathous hns spoiled our evening."
As she uttered the words Mrs. I!rat- ,
hulls entered the roum. i
'Jamie, your uncle wants you," she I
said. "1 hope yon will not cot trn. lift
hiui about anything to-night. Me r
so nervous an. I hard t.i iiiana re."'
Wititoun otily bowed in reply. Hi

Katherine were singing nway as if tin.
laird of Levens-hope was in the very
height of perfect health."
"Have you sent for me iu order to !
quarrel, uncle?" !
"tsarrel! (Quarrel! Who sprukn
of quarreling? Think shame of yotiu. '

j "1 cannot marry Kat'ieriue until she

"Permission, indeed! I Wonder'

"I will tell her nothing of the kind,
sir. 1 doub! if Katherine and I will

me, and I do not wish to many her i
unless she does."
"Are you gone clean daft, .lames
Wintoun? You will marry Kat herine.
Of course, you will! I intend to see
to that. Io you think I will have
dead folk worried out of their graves
and live folk worried into them for '
Katheri'le's nonsense?"
"Kathcriue's fee jugs are to be eon-

"Kathcriue's feelings! Heard one

that has not to her feelings any
( more than she has come to her reason! i
T will remind you that 1 hold a luortgngn

looking to Katherinc's money to pay

'T nm doing nothing of the kind,
' sir. I would not marry Ka-herine for
her money. I do not care fur her
money!" And Winiouu snapped his
lingers passionately almost iu his
i uncle's face.
"You are a born foul,

rang the bell furiously, and called out

I'll be havingafi vcr next! What kept

tonu was glad to escape the rasping,
unreasonable voice. The chill wiud
and the drifting vapors were more
kindly and coiulortable companions.
The nt--ct morning the laird was still
sick and the house was wretched, bill
the mist was so thick Katherine did
not dare to go over the hills. And
this condition continued for four days.
Then Sabbath came, and she found
her way to church, and afterward to
the litanse; but there v.a i no great
comfort iu cilher place. The minister
was preoccupied, and Jessy m vet-
: named Mowbray. Moreover, tin
treated Katherinc's one ipiestiuti about
; him as if (he subject 1 ere 1 her.
"He has forgi ttcn our very exist- 1
dice, I dare say, Katherine; and wo
, need not worry ourselves about Ids.
j He wus seeking pleasure, and we made
I nu hour or t wo for him. I am ijuito
sure that ho will just mingle us up
with the lino views, the driving, tho
Jishing. the sight seeing and tin-other
boiinie lassies that he will dance a reel
wilh."
"Then J am leal sorry, Jessy. T
liked him more than that, an l i will
. even tell you m. " ;
"Pear, why should yon? .Men aro.
never to trust to. l ather said this i
1 one would be 'daugeruns.' " i
"Oh, Jessy, if vuii would love me a j
; little!"
'. Then Jessy Understood her friend's !
trouble, and she talked sensibly no
' livger. She turned her fougii.- and ,
1 began to praise Mr. Mowbray. She'
i said the like of him iu looks had never
: been seen on T weedside. and that a
i blind man might have known that ho ;
gave his heart away the moment ho ,
: looked at Katherine. i
"Yes, dear," she said, "as !e sat
. there and you stood nt the open door, i
' he got a wound he will never get over.'' ;
It was not that Katherine confessed
, her love. It was thai Jefsy diviue.l
' it, and that, with the uiiseUishues.s c-i :
j a true friend, she hasted to give the
only sympathy that is of value- tho !
! assurance of whatever we wish to be- i
; lieve. This conversation began be
1 fore theniorning service, and w us cmi- j
, tinned in the noon interval. Kath- 1
