As soon as she poke I wivs boiirnl to a.lmit it. I had thought that lai?lc woultl easily jjet over his unfor tunate attachment; I expected that, after a few quiet weeks with u.s. he would forget Clara Wilkinson tud her iiisir;iceful treatment of him. She was, in uiy opinion, a worthless girl, and 1 Vrit-ved to see him take the affair so seriously. And just at first he had ap peared to rally. He had become more chcurful. and more ready for siMMety. I said as much, to Kitty, but she point ed out that there had been a relapse. In fact, she was emphatic on the ques tion. "He's yettin"-no ffood here at all," she said most positively. "Really, in his own interest, I must ask you to send him away." "The girl has spoilt hia life!" I cried anyrily- Kitty looked at me for a mo ment, but said nothing1. "1 suppose you're rirht." I went on. "lie would be belter in a livelier place." "Of course he would, you dear old stupid." ha id Kittv- I tlid not see that I had been stunid. "There is nothing to distract his thoughts here," I said. "You speak to him then?" asked Kitty. She was decidedly in earnest about it. "A woman does these things so deli cately and tactfully," 1 sufrgvsted. "Oh. I couldn't think of it, Robert," saiil Kitty, blushing-. I admired her delicacy. He was walking- up and down the gravel walk, hitting at my Mowers (of which I am rather proud) with his stick, atnl smoking one of my cigars (I'm a judre of ciyars) at a ruinous pace. When I joined him and linked my arm through his. he started. "Jack." said I, "wouldn't you be bet ter away from here? t'ome, you know what I mean. You're no great hand at a secret." "I I "he began stammering, and in great confusion. "1 know all about it," said I, enour asringiy. T thought you'd get good out of the place, but it's clear you haven't: quite the contrary. You want to see new things aud new people; anil for get this " I paused for a word aud ended, "this unhappy mistake of j-ours." "l"mn my honor, you are a good chap." he exclaimed. "There's not all ot her man in Kngiand that would have treated me as you have;" aud he cov ered his eyes with his hand. "Oh. nonsense. It's nothing. I hope I'm always ready to do my friends a turn. Hut it's no use, is it? It gets worse and worse." "I'll go," he said, with a sigh. "I won't stay a minute. After what you say, I couldn't. And, old chap, I don't know how to thank you. Many fel lows would have taken the way I've lieen going on badly; most would " "Oh, we made allowance for you. Young men mustn't be judged too harshly." "Kut you're a true friend. It makes me feel pretty bad, I can tell you, Uob." ' h you'll soon forget it when you're on the move." "I ll try. Hy Jove. I will!" he ex claimed, earnestly. I to; it only needs a little resolution. Itecause. between ourselves, you know, you oughtn't to be inconsol able." "Kb?" "In my opinion. Jack, you've had an escape. And you cau take my word for iL Remember I know the lady pretty well." Iu fact. I'd met Clara Wilkinson a hundred times, and had a perfectly definite opinion about her. tih, you mustn't say a word against her," he protested. "She's been all that's good and kind and " "Of course, you say that," 1 inter rupted, impatiently. "I suppose you're Ih.uiiiI to. but it won't g-o down with me. If ever there wan a heartless, worthless jade " "Rob!" he cried, starting away from me; but I was determined he should hear the truth. "If ever a woman," I pursued, "led a young fellow on, deliberately, wicked ly, never meaning anything except to tret iii ' li.-r toils and then turn him adrift with a laugh that's what she meant with you Oh, 1 kuow her no one better!" The unhappy young- man turned pale and his lips trembled. "Now you know the truth about her and I hope you'll proceed to put her image out of your heart," I concluded. "I'd have staked my life on her!" he murmured. "She she seemed so dif ferent, ltob, I couldn't help it, she never " " iiiu were only the victim," I inter rupted, patting his shoulder. "I I shall go at once. I can't stay here. This revelation you are telling me the truth. Mob?" "Honestly, to the best of my knowl edge." I answered, tiriulv. "How awful!" said he. "Surprised, are yott? Why, any of the fellows at the club could have told you the same thing." "Awful!" he murmured, gazing- at me. "Come, come." said I, "it's possible to make too much of such a trouble as this. hen one's eyes are once opened " and 1 ended with a shrug- of the shoulders. Suddenly he held out his hand. "Shake hands, old chap," he said. I shook hands. The pixir fellow was a good ileal moved, and I didn't wish to appear cold. "I shall go straight," he repeated. "Well, to-morrow morning will do." "No. To-night-the next train. Aud you you must stay here?" "Of course I stay here," I answered, staring in my turn. He sighed heavily. "It's bad for me. old chap." he said, laying a hand on my shoulder, "but, by Jove, what it must be for vou!" "For me?" 1 exclaimed. "What d'ye mean?"' "That woman!" he gasped. "And how you keep it up! Due would think to see you well, well, its brave. It vould kill me in a month. It's brave, that's what it is!" " hat iu the world are you talking about? I haven't spoken to her for three years." "Kxcept before strangers? Uood hea vens!"' "Not at all. I haven't" "Hush! here she comes! I I can't meet her!" "She here? Rush!" I turned round and beheld my wife! Witliapa.pl fell back a step. Jack tore past Kitty and vanished t lir..mrli the open windows of the drawing room. "Well, was he reasonable?" asked Kitty. I could say nothing-. "I hop.' you were g-entle with him. Rob. lie s a nice boy, though he's a particularly silly one. He meant no harm. Rob." "Was was -was he ( stam mered. "What the dickens does it mean?" "Only." said Kitty, coming- close up to me. "that he's quite forgotten Clara Wilkinson, aud " "Well?" "That you've got rather a nice wife, Rob." she v hispere.i. "Li.l you say an thing about me. Roh-" 1 looked at her for a moment. "Heavens!'' I cried, and rushed into the hou-e. That young man would o and tell all the club that uiy w ife and 1 oh, l.oi-d! "Jack, Jack, Jack, you young- fool!" I yelled. The butler appeared. "Mr. Vincent, sir, has just jumped into the dog-cart, sir it was at the door by your orders and driven olT like mad. He said he was summoned to London, sir!" 1 sank dow n in a chai.-. Presently Kitty came in. She was laughing. "Oil, dear!" she said; "and I thought you were so nice and considerate in pretendimr not to see it!" And the silly little woman went off into a lit of giggling. Then I told her the opinion of her and of our domestic happiness which Jack Vincent was carrying away with him. That sobered her; aud we began to send telegrams. Rut the young runian (he may break his heart next time, and welcome!) had gone straight to the club. When I fro there now they ask me, sympathetically, if matters are "any better?" I know what they mean. Rlack aud White. (jetting at the Facta. Attorney You are the president of the Dazzling Sun lias company, are yon not? Witness I am.

One time when I was up in Penn sylvania Hemlock belt I was going from Overman's Hook to the R.-irley Run Cross Forks when 1 heard some one whistle oil to one side of the road.

When was a mau or a woman in love ever apt to listen to anything so disa greeable as common sense? And he was iu love, honestly, sincerely and Iiassiouatcly. So he married Norine Hale, and was most ridiculously hap py for two years. Their life toirether wes simply ideal. His few- faults he corrected. If faults she had. thev re mained undiscovered by him. One dav he summoned courage to tell her the remai ks that had Wen made concern ing her jealous disposition. She looked up at him with grave, shining eyes. "1 do love loyally," she replied, sim ply. Aud it may W he would never have discovered at all that Norine was jeal ous if it were not for the burglary. Harold liroves was a lawyer. He transacted much of his business at home, and had in his sln.lv a lare desk, in which he kept papers of im portance, deeds and I11.111. .; ;in.la re lating to the affairsof his cii.-nts. The desk lixil.ed sadly u.-itidy. and. iu the opinion of Norine. was a decided blot in the exquisitely mat little room, w here some of their pleasautest hours were sih-iiL "Harold," she said to him one even ing, as she leaned over his chair, aud smoothed back his dark ! K-ks caress ingly with her pretty white lingers. "I really shall tidy up that desu one of these days. The litter of dusty p.i pers, books aud pipes is postivelv disgrace ful." He pave her a glance of alarm. "Don't for mercy's sake, dearest! I kuow now w here to put my hand on everything I want --don't!"' Rut the fear that she might do so in duced him to lock his desk, and keep it locked thereafter. Norine noticed it and laughed. "At least you have shut the disorder out of sight." she avowed, gayly. "M v threat was erlicacious to that extent. Indeed, dear, how you can ever tell one of those tiresome documents of yours from another, is a mystery to me." A certain blue, starlit March night they went upstairs, leaving the cozv apartment in dainty order. I luring the night Norine was awakened by w hat souudod like a click.

Reassured, she did as bidden, but. on Wing amused early by the servant's cry of dismay, she hastened down to find the lower rooms 111 a state of ex treme confusion.

A hot ilush drove the pal lor from her cheeks. The buzz in her ears was deafening. She put outlier hand, took up one of the letters, read it through. It was just such a love letter as any retiued. affi-ctioiiate girl might have written. It Wi'an ".My Ilearest," and ended Your loving Annie." It bore the date of the year previous to Noriue's marriatre. She took up another folded sheet, opened, glanced through it. A brief, sad little note it was. My dear." it tod.
