perplexity never in anger or illtemper It was the of sitting rooms in iloiest of cottages where this widow daughter sat sewing and talking of the one sunbeam of heir lonely lives the child of Melas brother long dead He tailed away when Cali fornia gold was at its height leaving a little wife and a snowdrop of a baby to his mothers care And with him had Melas betrothed Stephen Bruce iter came but seldom each one with tidingi of toil hardships discouragement till two years dragged their days along Then Bert wrote to his mother lo gently to woefulnewi of death of malarial and with this letter came another In a irange hand telling that Red too had fell a viclirn to the fever His little wife drooped and faded taxing love and care for ihe baby and driving her own sorrow into the background till it ceased to be ever present agony The that licit had gathered twenty thousand dollars came on the day when his wife was carried forest under the sod of the village church yard chare went to his wid owed mother who was close I and for Lillian was cherished her fathers legacy The income gave her advantages above those of her companions and she was tie idol of her grandmother and her aunt Not five miles from was a large city where Lillian attended school and made friends and whence a wooer who found favor with all the inmates of the cottage He was Harry Sanderson a young mer chant in prosperous circumitanccs handsome bright and courteous one to win golden opinions wherever he went Lillians guardian gave good ac counts young Sanderson and Lillian loved him- There was no one to whisper lo any those who loved the fair maiden that her suitor had been a had sown his wild oat too freely not long ago He had kept his business standing his integrity and bis follies were for- when Influenced by Lillians soft blue eyes he dropped dangerous habits and made all pleasureseeking carry him to cottage at Stock The sun upon wooing and wedding and when Lillian invested a portion of father hard earned gold in a pretty house veil furnished in the city and began to keep bouse for Harry there was not a happier couple to be found It was charming lo put into practice Aunt welltaught housekeeping accomplishments to chase all specks of dust from the dainty rooms to select little orna ments or putter about in closets But housekeeping for two with welltrained servant will every day and all day from weeks end to weeks end and Lillian had terribly lonely hours Her own wardrobe and Hairy being all ihe perfec tion of bridal freshness needed no care and when dinner was ordered a pudding resolved upon and often made time began to hang heavily Without undde vanity San derson had been too long the very centre a home circle not to feel her self of some importance in the world and it was pleasant to leave the house behind her and fait ride In the cars be back with grandmother and Aunt Mela whose welcome being by their was of the wannest was pleasant to about from neigh bor to neighbor to tasteful purchases to talk of ferry to feel something of a liuoitie in the circle And lirae slipped away so rapidly that often returning home found Harry impatiently waiting the spoiled and something like matrimonial clouds threat en It in ihose early days hive been if Harry bid asserted her with as if it bad been a cruelty He would almost as soon have struck her as to scolded her But sometimes coming in day of bard business toil and care and finding no one to welcome he would weary dreary empti ness of house and go out again before Lillian returned Had she known had she even fell ever dimly what was the danger threatening her what was her power over her husband Lillian Sandcuon butterfly as she was would never have In choosing her own course Had she realized how one word from Mm one took from her eyes influenced Harry the opportunity for word or look bad never been to carelessly aside But she was only eighteen and selfish with the of youth If she was lonely she went where she met loving welcome not realizing that the she felt for Harry was threatening her whole lifes happiness Working all day at his deik Harry came home with a brain too weary to enjoy reading If Lillian met with her sweet face smiling and the pretty sittingzoom bright with a home look he was fully content To enjoy the well ordered dinners to talk and listen to lively lo in a deep chair while the little wile sang in played or even to lake up dominoes backgammon or chess made ihe evening fly away But when the sound of his voice brought no answer when Lillian might not come till the late train Harry could not enjoy or cigar and as his wife had done earlier in the day sought company abroad Mr Lilians guardian and a lawyer past middle age was ihe first who dared to hint at any danger threatening the domestic felicity of the Sandersons and he spoke to before when Stephen Bruce was in California Hugh Graham had brought a loyal heart and ample in come to tempt from her home but being told the true reason of her refusal had accepted it manfully and later had still been a staunch friend life He knew how dear Lillian was to her grand mother and her aunt and it was Ms cautious words of warning that had occasioned the conversation recorded at the beginning of this story Drinking Mrs her voice by horror to a whisper- Ob Metal Mr Graham says he drinks and plays cards Somebody must speak to Lillian And mother Lillian is here too much It is not best for a wife to lisc in her old home and Lillian almost lives here You should advise her No dear You apeak to her And then said she feared Lillian would resent an old maids advice But Mjlburn was not a woman lo turn aside from a positive duty and when next Lillian came over for a long day at home the spoke to her gravely But auntie Harry does not object Lillian said He told if I stayed till Sunday he would come hi in sell 10 escort me home But Lilly he must be terribly lonely Oh he does very well Maggiesays he cats his dinner and then goes out Of course Maggie is asleep before comes in but she always has breakfast ready if I stay all night But does he go Oh to the club and sometimes to the theatre Lillian are you not afraid he will cease to for bis home Oh no indeed I He says it is the sweetest place on earth And yet you drive him from ii one or two days out of week Why Aunt Metal- Dont you like to have me come home The blue eyes filled the mouth quivered and courage nearly failed her but she answered gravely You have another home Lillian first love and duty should lie there But Mrs shrank from the piteous voice greeted her a few minutes later and could not keep back ihe assurance that Lillian was more than welcome at the cottage Then tried to compromise matters by visiting Lillian and this was more easy as a wee Harry appear ed in the fall to claim his share of loving and pelting But much mischief was already done Harry had formed new and resumed old ones and more than once holding the baby watching the young mother heard Harry stumble with un certain tread The baby was sickly and Stock- seemed to suit him so Lillian was again frequent guest at her old home and no one dared to interfere when the change was so evidently beneficial to the little frail life she watched so anxiously But one day in winter a summons came lo Stockdalc Send Mrs Sanderson home at once I Mr Sanderson is dangerously til And ihe signature was of the family physician Pate and terrified Lillian supported by Meta went to the sick room Harry Jay tossing in delirious fever and hot for many days did the gentle woman know of the brawl in a gambling house where words led to blows and Harry was stabbed io the side Bui in those days of watching when Harrys daik eyes roved rest lessly over her face

one day weak as a babe but trefoil Harry smiled in eyes as she bent over him My little wife he whispered And Lillian bravely choking back a desiroto break Into hysterical sob bing kissed the pale grieving lip with an inward vow to be a truer wife if Heaven spared her husbands life And she kept her vow At last she appreciated her own power to keep Harry from temptation from dangerous associations and when her husband can spare time to visit Stockdale Lillian goes there with him Mrs- feels sometimes that Lillian seems to have quite forgotten her old home but Meta vrbo misses her sorely only smiles and says Lillian does not forget us mother Sec how glad she is to come with Harry and the children I But she has that a wifes first place If in her own home and with her own If And Lillian knowing the precipice upon which her husband stood shudderfogly thanks God that iho learned not to late those gentle arts of love that make her husband happiest by her side in bis own ho we 3
