representing that the gay world T was
'about to enter, and drgi'ng that I should
have some fitting chaperon, bid adver

to his (fanghter and only child.
Among •ntimerwui^'aftipliijiHobs l —for

such rilerwices as seemed in every way
desirable, and an engagement followed
When I firjfc sarw her toy heart was drawn
to her in a^topatb^ 1 that so yonng
and beautifnl should be thrown npon the

Her years scarcely'fcatnnmbered mine,
but the-large darkt had in them a
look of audhese whiob proved' her no i
stranger to Yet she was a
sunbeam in ttc'liduEe| t*h§ friirtfilfulness
of her laugh was contagious; the touch
of her small, white > hand in aufl'ering
seemed tu bring instant healing, the low,
sweet foica never Co jar; and I had
thought her true, had giren' her my
girlish heart, and, l 6! I leurued all, all
had been a part to gain an end.
This woman whom I had cherished in
my bosom had turned aud stung me, aod
was about to supplant the mother to
who§e memory my iatbor bad been true
ten long ye»re.
- ' "1 hare abited Miss Elliott to be tay
, wife," he had said to me but an hoar be
fore, as I stood in bis study, if herd' he
had sent for me to come to him "You
have already learned to love her—a fact
which has made my decision in this
matter easier. Her absence at pre.'eut
is in reality to prepare for the marriage.
Tn a few daya.t shall go/or be,r ta re
turn with her as my wife As hereto
fore your happiness has Lieen my first
consideration, so now I hope you will
eonsider mine." ; 1 ..
With face tfhlte irt' marbln, I had lis
tened in silence ; then, unable to' uttet k
word ia reply, I fashed to the abetter cf
my own room.
What should Ido ? As deartjr as !
had loved so nqw I her. Each
suiile seemed a trap, each word to have
"had its meaui'oj."*Hej yopth and

Never, ncoer could I bear to aee heir in

though his eyes often aoagbt.hiina wiafr

The «ror«l HS hardened the softer emo

Thcu I had no liise to lose, since, in

in the little family of which I bad be
come a member.
In all this time no word had reached
me of my bouve. How could it, when
they knew opt where I was?
I had known many weary, weary
days, though I had been fortunate,..in

home, and winoiog the heart of the little
girl, who, io her turn, had now won my
own. Still, a feeling of loneliness and
desolation oppressed me, as, at liberty

spaoious . grounds—n dull weight, to

Two bright, laughing faces peeped
through the screen of trees, and behind
them, parting the branches, stood their
soldier uncle,-—"»nele Harry."
