thought it would worry you but I wish you to command that meddlesome nurse keep it a secret from Ethel for if she hears it I shall lose her and then I should not care what became of me I shall reform and be all right before our wedding day only keep it from Ethel In all Mrs prosperous life she had never experienced a shock ai this and years seemed to have been added to her sge Whan the breakfast bell rang she was forced to lake her place at head of the table where her ghastly face attracted instant attention On Mrs I knew Ralph is in danger and you are keeping it from me cried Ethel see for myself how he is cried Ethel and ahe arose from the table Wait dear sisier has taken up some toast and tea to him as soon as she comes down wo will go to him moment Ethel heard the nurse descend she hastened out to meet her and ask if it were a conven ient lime to visit the sick room I suppose so Miss Ethel as good a time as any replied the com passionate lister Marjorie hesitat ingly Mrs Fordyce joined her and they went up lo Ralphs apartments Ethels honor at stent which met her eyes could scarcely have been greater Ralph had risen mo ment the nurse left the room made way to dressing bureau and was taking a drink from a flask His eyes were red and heavy bis lips swollen and purple bis hair damp and disordered and sickening odor of room You brought her here humili ate me mother you know you did Ralph in seizing a heavy cut glass he hurled if at her with all his force Too wretched for tears said as soon as iheywere out of the room Our engagement is we inform our friends will be no wedding here ObEthcJ cried Mrs sinking upon her knees by the couch da not be so cruet you will- drive him to despair and he will go down to ruin if you forsake him Can loss be placed in ihe balance withthe toss of a soul If you marry him your influence as a good wife will this love of trie and his know ledge of my promise Uncle has no effect upon turn my influence as a wife would not nor would it be increased by my loss of property replied Ethel weeping No the is at an end I will no man who is not a total Mrs saw that it was use less to more That day the wed ding iovitaiiona ware cancelled the bridal dress put away and Ethel pale and careworn Went about her daily duties making no allusion the sad affair either at or abroad Ralph in the meantime brought to hit senses by prompt re fusal to raarty bias not only made a promise to his mother never again touch a drop of ardent but few weeks after his re covery he went to hear an eloquent lecturer and signed the pledge of total abstinence It was a happy day for Mrs anil in her heart she thought that fitnel reward him by be stowing her hand upon him but no allusion was made to it by any mem ber of the Two years pasted away and Dr Ralph keeping the pledge His irectiee was large and lucrative and in society he was more popular than ever and nothing but Urgent easel of illness prevented presence in the house of Goo in the win ter a wonderful outpouring of the Holy Spirit and Dr Ralph was one of the subjects of the gra cious influence Then indeed did Ethel have faith in his reformation for she knew him to be sincere and ave him the promise that trie week following the communion of which he was to partake for the first lime their wedding should take place Dunng the weeks which followed Dr dyce who was one of the elders of the church endeavored to influence the session to substitute unfermentcd wine in place of that which had been used at communion services His proposal had at first met with steady opposition but by talking up on the subject every opportunity that offered he had prevailed upon one the matter from his standpoint but as there remained three in opposition the fermented wine took usual place upon the communion table At their meeting preparatory to the autumn communion when Dr Ralph and many other young men were to become members Dr made strenuous efforts to win the last one of the three to his way of thinking hia hopes at last centering upon a timid retiring little man who had as a rule gone where the others led hope brother that you have considered what I asked you at our last prayer- meeting and will use your influence today in substituting the pure fruit of the vine for the intoxi cating wine at our communion to morrow said he as they arrived a little in advance of the others Yes have thought over what you said replied the other hesita tingly but really cannot see why we should change our timehonored custom It seems to me wrong to do bo 11 There is no time to go into a theological discussion replied Dr Fordyce but would you consider it wrong if you had a son who had a natural love of strong drink and has allied himself to a temperance society as a protection from tempta tion Oh I consider it fanatical if not for one to suppose that a sip of communion wine could be looked upon a temptation replied his companion serenely But brother it is perhaps no temptation to you or to many others but we should have compassion upon the weak ones remembering the in junction that no put a stumb lingblock or an occasion to fall in his brothers way A person so weak as would not be safe anywhere remarked the other dryly somewhat piqued at the anxious tone of the doctor which he mistook for impatience believe that the use of fer mented wine keeps many out of the church persisted Dr Those who have pledged themselves to touch not taste not handle not cannot conscientiously take our fer mented communion wine 1 agree with the others that it is belter to make no change replied his companion as though weary of the conversation lam very con servative in my opinions Dr remained in the min ority awaiting the result with keen anxiety and when the following Sab bath he saw the gleam which came iato the eyes of Ralph as the fumes of the wine greeted him he knew wlih a sinking heart that the demon of the wine cup had triumphed and was rejoicing over the broken pledge Thai night Dr
