man older to years and with a face which yet bore traces of great sorrow Not moon had dulled and waned since John had stood beside fathers open grave 1 am sorry for you John you know that I been thinking of you all day knowing how you must miss bins When ate married dear and go elsewhere it will be easier for you to bear Everything you see will not so remind you of him Ah that is another thing of which I wished to talk with you dar ling I know dear bow much better than a farmers wife you ought and how you have always hated the idea of such a life I was very hippy that could offer you some thing different When first this city opening was proffered me I accepted it for your sake I had heard you say often enough you would never live on a farm but it is different now Then had not the sweet promise Sou have since given me Your hand ad never lain in nor my lips been blessed by the touch of yours When tell you now dear that I must stay where I am will the appointment be more than you can bear John you do not mean it Why should you stay and endure a life which you are no more tilted than I am you owe nothing whatever to me Yes I owe you all the happiness my life has ever known but my duty is none the less clear for that My mother and sisters are dependent now me The farm is all they have Unless take my fathers place will be homeless They are your consideration then Hush I You know better than that You know what 1 long to do but at present there is no way Come to the old home to make it sunshine cant John You said that you knew I was utterly unfitted to be a farmer wife and that if you had not known another sphere had opened itself for you you would never have asked me to be wife True dear but I did not know then all that love meant Since I have grown sure of your heart and think of out approaching marriage as daily drawing nearer I could sooner thrust when dying of famine the cup of water from my parched lips lhan yield up the knowledge that you hid given me the promise There no choice for me though I must stay to give my mother and lister the comforts of life Then you must live It without me I do love you John I wish now that I did not but not even my love strong enough for the dull plodding existence which never Ambitions name Early to bed and early to rise is a good enough motto its way but I think there is some thing higher better and nobler In life Nothing Allie Is higher than ones duty in however humble a sphere Its finger may point We are home now Oh think Am I to go away Ate you quite sure of yourself A word of pleading rang out in the clear manly tones out the girls face was resolute and hardened 1 am sure John It been your own doing Remember that Yes I will remember Good bye then God be with you He had- to go but suddenly he and taking her slight form once more for the last time in his arms he pressed one long kiss upon her lips and she felt against her own tumultuous throbbing of Ms heart Then he was gone and she went alone into the light while he turned out Into the shadow For the first time in all her young life sleep for sook her Restlessly she tossed up on bed where heretofore her form had lain couched in sweet dreams or blissful foigetfutness- Wilful exact ing as she was she loves this man with a depth of which she does not dream and to look ahead at the lone future without him is to see a barren waste He will find out his mistake she at last sobs to herself He will do as I have asked him and as he pro mised me But days came and went and mill John gave no sign of relent ing They rarely met and when they did he passed her with a bow There was no studied coldness In this but he dared not trust himself I must go away she said at last This life will kill me And so putting her wish Into words beautiful home We all expected a real country lass But if Mrs disappoint ment ws genuine she found none to share it It was the pretty race was new perhaps of Its and piquancy but whatever perhaps was the cause certainly the result was the same that before this new constellation all lesser lights paled Another world richer fairer than any she had ever known opened before the girls eyes Now and then when the atmosphere a adulation and luxury constantly sur rounding her was shut out by night and darkness when she lay silent and alone in the night watches the sad face of the man whom she had sent out into the darkness would come before her But when light 2nd warmth and perfume surrounded her cosily mirrors rcfleclcd her form and many voices were ever ready to whisper of its beauty and she would see in contrast the pic ture of the farmers wife with her youth and beauty only reflected In the summerbrooks with the rich robe replaced by the simpler and the now redolent with lights and spent only the slats or ni she she would turn shuddering and say I could not have it But there came a time when con gratulations must be added or her error retrieved It was scarcely a surprise to her when Mr told her that he toyed her and asked bet to be his wife to rule as mistress over his luxuriant mansion to share the wealth of which he has so large a share It was no new story that she lis tened Mr was not alone in his pursuit for that one white hand but before tonight the No had slipped readily yet graciously from her lips But she pauses now Well she knows that this man can offer all which will make her life one golden dream that though his hair is sprinkled with gray he loves her with a young that his arm will shield her from every rough wind that blows Why then should she heiiiaie Why not give him the an swer that he seeks Have I hurried you too much he questioned at last when the silence between them is still unbrok en I know Alice that I have not youth to offer you but my heart is young yet and my youth is not so far behind me that I have forgoten it know all that nor am I un grateful Mi for all that you offer me a girl so little worthy such love Give me till tomorrow Then you shall have my decision As you will Alice 1 will leave you until then but remember dear if God sees best to give this one white lily into my keeping its bloom will gladden all my life One last fight with self r Alice wage but when the sun broke her decision was taken Love wealth luxury lay before her within her grasp They would be hers That other life from today was forbidden even to memory It had lived and died and not even its ghost must be resurrected Mr wife must have no lime for thought At her breakfast plate lay a letter addressed in her fathers hand With careless fingers she breaks the seal With eyes dilated with horror face and lips blanched she reads on through the closely written sheet We have bad a terrible accident at the mines There has been an ex plosion and no one knows how many men have passed to their last account They are still busy going down in their sad search for the possible liv ing- John was the first to offer his services and I fear poor fellow I he has met his death from the foul air He went down this morning and when the shaft was drawn up he was not on it and they have heard nothing from him since Brave fellow I The excitement is In tense When are you coming home We miss you darling When that she were there that she might join those anxious in their search that she might find the poor dead body and whisper to It though it gave no answering sign Your wife mourns you John 1 Nay not your widow I With wild throbs her heart asserts itself though it will beat gladly never more With the keen intuition which comes to men when drowning she that her love Is buried with that brave soul which went forth to meet its Maker true to duty at the very last The light dies from her expectant lovers eyes afhe waits her coming when he looks into the white set face from which youth and gladness seem forever fled She places in his outstretched hand an open letter 1 loved that man she says brokenly From you the man I have so wronged I pray one boon to him with a great pity for the young life thus shattered even though his own heart was burled in the fall he tenderly clasped the cold little hands within his own and drawing her to him said softly Poor child I You will take my pity Alice vou could not Ac cept my love We shall have no lime to lose dear Tonight shall see you in your fathers house Have they found him papa she questions as she throws herself a few hours later Into the fond outstretched arras Oh papa you little knew you wrote the lines which doomed my life to widowhood I loved him and I have lost him and the young voice broke In a pitiful wail Kay darling has been found and unhurt He was overcome by the air but only fainted and was too He is all right now he promised to come and let me If there was more for the sur geons hand But the weight upon the fathers arm crows greater and glancing into the fair Sweet facej be sees the eyes have closed Excitement and fatigue hire done their work has fainted Strong aims are ready to the burden for John has been an unconscious listener to these last words and springing for ward he clasps the slight form In his arms and rains kisses upon the dosed eye Slowly the It da upraise and
