MRS. CAMERON'S HUSBAND.
11V (IUI.NI.VEUi:.
At one end of the broad piazza of the
Oveilook Mountain Houso a pretty woman
held court her throne a violet-iibboued.
willow chair, her courtiers a dozen ormuro
devotees to whom Fay Cameron's golden
head was as povvciful a magnet as the gold
en ll.uyo of a e.-Vndlo Is to thu dazzled
moth.
At the otlier ei:d, terminating In a few
broad steps, before which the coach iiad
just been drawn, a man appeared attract
ive in bis dark beauty and faultless attire.
Ily Jove 1" exclaimed one of the cour
tiers, who had recognized the new-comer;
and then ho looked at the sweet, unconsci
ous face of thu woman before htm. who
was Mating a quaint story in her bright.
plea-jij way.
Tho'vlolet ejes lifted half iiinuirinaly,
md the next Instant a red Hush swept from
chin to brow, and the llttlo hands elosed
rigidly upon the feathered fan they held.
The man in tho gray traveling suit atv.
pio.iched the group, glanced indllTeiently
over the several heads, and vv ith an air of
cold courtesy, lifted his hat aiid parsed by.
,,-Mrs. Cameron finished her story, but the
smile on her Hps had lost its svyectness, her
eyes were darkened with less jasttro than
lassionaie emotion, and as elm rose and
wllh a few laughing woids left them, one
man leaned forward with it, meaiilng llttht
on his face. . .
"Mrs. Cameron's husband," ho said.
All started and looked surprised.
"Her husband?" slid oiie. "1 thought
ho had died long ago!"
"Whatl.joit never heard thestoiy? Why.
she was married a little over a year ago!
She taught music to Cameron's nieces
her face was her fortune, you kpow but
she. was always awfully clever. Well, two

So they w6nt on discussing In their care
less way a question that none understood,
and wondered what tlio sequel .would be
when husband and wife met dally.
Would thero bo dtsputes and warfare, or
utter Indifference? Would Guy Cameron
be jealous Of his wife's favor so lightly and
liberally btstowed on nil her willing nt
tendnuts? Would lie desire a reconciliation?
Pcihnps lie had come but for an Interview,
and would go away again. Peihaps ho
would remalif and seek lo annoy her. Who
could tell?
Fay Qaineion went to her rootn nfter her
meeting with the man she bad not seen be
fore for many months, and could her friends
have seen her there, face dovv nwnrd among
the cushions bf the vv lllovv lotmsc,and hoard
the sobs that burst from liorllps.tlicy might
have realized then that the gay human
butterfly was not without heart and feeling
after nil.
While lying there, quiet aftertbo tempest
of tears was over, sho beard tho sound of
voices waftrd in through tho open window.
Some one had come out upon the ad
joining balcony, and every word spoken
was distinctly audible.
"Mrs. Cameron's husband Is It pofsi
ble? Could ho have known sho was hcie?"
The answer was uuhcaid by Fay, but the
next words camo with cool distinctness.
"All, well, they never loved each oilier."
Fay Cameron stalled up with hilghlenlng
eyes and her lp3 Com mossed; then a shado
of sadness came over her pretty features
and she fell back with her hand pressed
upon iter heart.
"They never loved each oilier," she re
peated slowly.
A moment's silence, then springing to
her feet sho thrust hack her jellow hair,
bathed her flushed face, and an Instant
later had joined a group of friends on Hie-
lawn, from where (lie sound of her light
jests and careless laughter iloated to a man
sitting at his window, gazing out upon tlio
scene with gloomy eyes.
They did not meet again till evening
husband and wife.
Fay, in a sllver-flrckcd, tullo robe with a
kuot of panslcs. In her golden curls, had
never been gayer, and It. was only when
she found herself alone that tlio light faded
from her face.
She was standing In a deserted corner of
the broad piazza, and, a, projection of tbo
building hid her from view of the man who
sauntered nlona In tho moonlight.
Ho started when he saw her, and drew
back.
"I did not know you were here. Pardon
the intrusion," lie said coldly.
Fay faced him suddenly.
"Why did you come liero nt all?" she
said passionately. - "Was I not miserable
enough before?"
"Miserable.", .lie echoed, with a sharp
laiiRh,. ,''llut, j"s, the annoyances of a
belle nnd beauty nre many. However, you
need tear nothing. I shall In noway Inter-'1
fere with your plans."
"Do you Intend lo sUy here?" asked
Fay, witli a gasp.
,'.'.yiiyl.ol?".
"Dut-but "
"Ah, you fear tlio gossips!"
"I fear nothing-,", said Fay, haughtily.
"Remain if you choose, It Is nothing to
mo." -
He bowed once more, and turning, left
her.
Tho tears were In Fay's eyes, her bicast
was heaving under the cluster of golden
hearted pansles.
"I hate liltni" sho cried, beneath her
breath, and then, with a . reckless toss of
her head, sho made her way back to the
htllllant parlors, vvheie naught but smiles
greeted her.
Many worn tlio cm ions glances vouch
safed the tail, handsome man whoso idcntl
ty was now generally known.
Ills dark, aristocratic face turned feint
nine hearts toward him, and eie many days
elapsed, Mrs.. Cameron's husband was as
popular among Iho fair sex as tho golden
halted beauty herself was among the stern
er ones.
"Whatever ilea between them, Mr. Cam
cron is not to blame," nsserlcd Mrs. Poyn-
1011, a Canadian woman of dark, sertme
beauty., "Mis. Cameion Is a heartless
coquette, and no man would put up with
her frivolities and caprices."
'Guy Cameron Is not faultless," ict'oitup'
Doris Tlioin, a gray-eyed blonde, and Fay
Cameron's dearest friend. "Fay is one ot
tlio sweetest women In the woild."
'Perhaps ou know with whom the fault
lies?'' said Mrs. Poynton, Insinuatingly.
Doris' faco was non-committal.
"If I do, .you don't," the said saucily,
and tripped away singing a Sisiulsli love
song. 1
:u expedition lo tho glen had been
planned for the atterncon.
Fay, coming down in a jaunty suit of
black nnd peatl, wllh a plumed hat tipped
oyer her pietly face.saw her husband going
down the walk beside Mis. Poyulou, who
scut hack a look of malicious tiiumph when
sho saw her.
With Doris anil Colonel Alnsly, she fol
lowed, and soon tho quiet glen rang with
jests and laughter.
Altera feast spread upon tho sward, tho
parly broke up Into smaller group.?, and
Fay found herself lidc Mrs. Poyu'.ojt.who
was telling of a,piti . that led ftom the
place round the bluff that overlooked the
lake.
. "I have heard It Is not a safe place to
visit," said Colonel Alnsly.
"Danger lends charm," said Mrs. Poyn
ton, g-ijly. "Mr. Cameron, you do not
fear?" ....
"Indeed, no. J)o you wish to go?"
"Of course. And you. Mi. Cameron?"
, "I shall remain," eaid Fay, ijulctly, and
thou sho looked Into the eyes of her hus
band, "Is It wise to court danger?" the asked.
"You will bo safe," ho answered, with a
peculiar light In his eyes.
. 'Fay turned aside wllh a Hush; but Mrs.
Poynton looked at her companion wllh an
unpleasant smile.
"Do not go against Mrs. Cameion's
wishes," she said softly, "I can visit the
place, some oilier lime."
Guy Cameron said nothing, but offepsd
her his arm, and they went away logether.
"You can see us If you wait here," culled
back Mrs. Poynton, vvavin? her band to

"Ills adaiing undertaking," said one.

A shout ended the words, then camo a
gasp nnd a shrill cry.
From tltp crumbling bluff edgo a form
was seen hurled into space.
"Fay," sahl Doils,' fearfully; but the
woman lay at. her feet white and seusclos.
Many days later,. Guy Cameron opened
tils eves, lilhd for the first tpiie since his
awful fall with the light of reason.
He heard tho sound of a voice from tho
adjoining t'l.oiu, Fay's volcc.nud ho listened
silently.
"ll wan my duly, Doils. Oh, you can
not know my feelings when 1 thought he
was dead. Yet 1 am thankful now .had
It not been for this I never should have
known tho truth."
"You.wlll bo leconelled now, denr?"
"Oh, 1 do not know. I shall not tell
liltn that In his ravings he conferred hie
love, and begged for mine."
"You arc too proud, Fnj. Ho should

"IJul bow could he believe It bow could

It sounded like a long-diawn sigh, but
when Fay reached her' lutf band's side he1
lay with closed ejes, nsleep to nil Intent.
Two weeks later Mrs, 1'ojnton fluttered
Into a group or guests vllh her black ejes
gleaming.
Only those of her own ses were present,
and sho launched at once into llio subject
that agitated her mind.
"Mi s. Cameron's conduct Is shocking I

"Yes, I know; I caw them," chimed In

"You know who lie was?"
"A married man," said Doris, with a

A hush fell upon the group, and horrified
faces upturned lo the biicht one of the
last speaker.
uoris looked at mom smilingly, and
turned with a shiug of her shoulders.
"Wait who was it'.'" cried the hoi rilled
ones.
She looked back saucily.
"Whoso lutiband? D'hy, don't you
