Sho came to us in the full glory of au tumn's rlehest coloring, when "October was written on every hill and vple In the red and yellow tints of fallen leaves and the deepened liehne'ssof the Indian sum mer atmosphere bathing all In golden splendor. Hrolber Halph atid I stood on the veran da to vt elcomo tier,' and as she. came up tho broad tilto steps, tlio mellow autumn sun light flashing back from' her golden hair and seeming to hldo Itself In the dark depths of her wondrous brown eyes, she became as sociated In my mind witli the rich, dusk beauty, the still, glow ing splendor of that fucom.urabla mouth that queen of the year October; su I always thought of Iter, and so I think of her to-day. I took her 6iiiall gloved hard In mine a moment with a few pleasant words of wel come, then Halph did the same. And. ero he released it, which was not quite as soon as ho should have done,' I noticed an unusual flush mount to his handsome, fair face, n'nd I feared that he was in danger of losing his heart at the out set to our fair goicrness. Yes, this rare crcalurn was to bo our governess. Not uilno nor Halpli's, for we were long past our school-days, but wo had two troublesome young sisters to tako charge of whom Miss Grandison had trav eled a long way. Hera was a sln?n1nr etrla nt lA.,,it. 7 . " .., like of which I had never seen before. ! Her complexion, one would tnlnk.shoiild j bo fair to match the bright, dazzling gold , of bar hair, but It was not; Instead, It suited her deep brown eyes, and was what I can only describe as a creamy olive, with a spot of richest crimson on Cher cheek, Sho was tall and graceful, with an lr II Ml 0 CA B-SP S-. TnAOEV.'if cs and JL that was half commanding, and a look, a something about her, as I have said before, which reminded me of all tho deep passion and Intensity of October's warmth veiled under her stillest ha.te. Such was. Flora (ir.tndtson when she camo to us, niid It is not surprising that Ralph's eyes lingered on her. loyely face until ho was compelled to turn them away for very shaino's sake. Timo passed very pleasantly. , . Wo lived in the country, or, rather, Just outside of a stirring town, and wo could therefore eomblno tho pleasures of both city and country life. How Miss Grandlson enjoyed her out door rambles wltii tho children in the bril liantly tinted autumn woods I Halph fre quently accompanied them, much to her annoyance, it seemed to me who watched with jealous eyes every movement that In dicated tils growing interest in tlio charm Ing stranger. We knew nothing of her, savo that slm was from a southern city, and was thrown upon her own resources for support. Hut liar beauty spoke for itself, and I felt convinced, tho moment Italph (irst set his eyes upon her, tliat sooner or later she would break Ills heart. 1 wonder why tho thought never struck me that she, a poor governess, would be glad to win hint for a husband. Hut it neyer did. There was not tho least sign of coquetry about her, nor did sho seem to care at all for his attentions. She accepted them-, quietly, smilingly, when she could not well evade them, yet 1 always felt that she would rather he did not offer them. I liked her for tliat, though I could not gjt over the idea that she would bo his fate. One day, very late in November, the sun shone radiantly and an almost summer wariiitli-pervaded the atmosphere. Tempted by tlio beauty of tho scene, 1 donned my hat and cloak and went for a stroll in tho leafless woods. I had not gone fur when the sound of Halph's voice struck my ear. It was strained and despairing, and he was' saying, oil I how earnestly: "For God's sake, Flora, fefvc mo a little liopo!" "Have I not told you there is none?" I heard her answer, almost desperately; "1 desire that you will never mention lids subject again, Mr. Porcival." Not caring to play the eavesdropper, I walked away and joined tho children, who were at play some distance further on. Miss Grandison and Ralph had not seen me. But my blood was boiling at the thought of Halph suffering through her. When I saw him again tlio poor boy looked as wblto nnd, miserable as a ghost. Tho next day lie left us for an indefinite I time, pleading some business excuse, but I knew well what had driven him away. I loved blin dVarly, and could hardly bear tbe loneliness of tbe house after ho: was gone. At last, exasperated by her calm, queen ly loveliness, when my own beait was ach ing so, I vented my sorrow and displeasure upon Miss Grandison. She was sitting by the window, reading, and she just raised her eyes to give me one long, steady look, slightly mingled with surprise, ilien dropped them to Iter book again without one word. I then told h'o'r what I bad overlicprd.and repeated, angrily, that It was lici- fault that Ralph had gone away. "I am sorry," she said quietly, "that you heard what you did. No one would ever have known of your brother's disap pointment fipni me: Hut surely, Miss Pcrclyal, you cannot say tfiat I liavo ever encouraged his unfortunate lovo either bj word or look." I was forced to aclinowiedgo that she had not. 'Hut, since he did love you, in spite of all, why should you have refused him, Miss Grandison? Is not Ralph yonng,rieh, hand some, and good enough for aiiy woman on earth?" "Ho is all that, Miss Perclval," shore plied, almost sadly. "Then, why" "I have no love togive,".8lie Interrupted hastily,' "and, even could I love any one, I have not the right." "Not the right?" I repealed. 'Then jou aro engaged to some other." No," tho. said quietly, but I saw the ciimson in her checks begin to deepen. "Hecauso I am already a w ife." "A wife!" I cried, in amazement. You?" "Yes, Miss Perclval 1 1" Alieady angry with her before this ad mission, her words drove me quite beyond my yower of self-control, and my olco was full of bitter scorn. Yet it was no match for the quiet, intense scorn in hers, ns she rose to her full queenly height, her dark eyes glittering like stats,' and tbe ciimson spots In her creamy checks glowing like the burning heart of the richest, reddest roso. In all our acquaintance I had never ad mired her so much as I did tliat moment. Hut, remembering the wrong she had done my brother, I felt no kindness toward her. "Pray explain. If you can, Miss Grandl-1 son," I said, In my coldest tone, "why you entered this house under a false character, In which pou won my brother's heart, only . to break it. What bavo you to say to , that?" ''Nothing, except that your brother . knows all I have to tell, and I do not feci j called upon to disclose my whole troubles j to the world. If you deem me unfit for the position I hold In your house, Miss 1'ci el- j val, 1 will go elsewhere." "You iuYj" I answered coldly. I was asmved of my unkiniluess, even as I spoke, but, bolteying her, just then, to be a' designing' woman, the calm coinposnro nf her manner angered me until I neither spoke nor acted llko myself. "Very well," she said; and my heart smote me at the deathly pallor of her face as she turuod to leave the room.

She hesitated a mjiiulo or so, with tho open letter In her hand, and I knew that a sevcro struggle was going on beneath that calm, beautiful exterior. "It is humiliating," she said at lenfitb, with a little, quivering smile, to remain hero under tho circumstances; but I am poor, Miss Porcival, and I must not think loo much of my dignity. Hosldcs, I was sure If you had known tho truth, you would not have beep so unjust." And so she stayed. Months after, when I had grown to love nnd 03teeni her for tlio "best and noblest of women," as, Ralph, bad called her, she told tun her story. Hriefly, she had had a large fortune willed to her by an undo of her husband, whoso only heirs, through jealousy and greed, had blasted her life by cruel slandcis. In the bitterness of their hatred they had estranged her husband from her, and ho had deserted her, believing her to be false. Her enemies hail been jsyicecssful in all their plots against her, and she had borne persecution? aipl insults which, as I listened In their pathetic recital, made me wonder that woman like her could hayc endured tliem and lived Abandoned by tho husband whom she still loved brlicr than her own life, and thrown, t'llendless, upon the wot id, tho had keptjier history to herself, simply dropping her married titlo for tho sake of being less exposed to curious questioning.

What need to say more? Kahili had con stituted himself a modern Don Quixote, and had secictly pledged himself to right the wrongs of tho woman who had refused him. He had found Paul Gramlisoti, had told him where his wifo was, and what a pure, true woman she had proved herself. And Paul had come on w ith him to kneel at Flora's feet (as he afterward told me) and ciaye her pardon. I think Ralph was almost as happy, when Flora turned those beautiful brown eyes upon him and murmured, "God bless you, my noble friend," as lie would liavn been could his own dream of winning her have been fulfilled.
