As (loiilon Leslie entered the room she rose to her feet, a faint flush staining her cheeks at the Involuntary Rlancc of ailtnlr- atlon lhat sprung Into his eyes. "You mutt pardon my Intiusloti," he said cotuleously. "1 was directed heio to wait for Miss Despard." Then, seeing the look of Inquiry on her face; "I am ftoidon Leslie." "And 1," holding nut' her hand with childish Ktacc, "am Lillian. I have heat il of you, ot lourec, and v,ou must At this moment Cleta Despard enleied tho loom, as the hands of her sister and lover met. "Wo have waited for no formalities," Gordon said, as Cleta came forward. She was a rarely beautiful girl, this (Jlela Ucspaid, tall, slim, and stately, with a pure, high-bred face, and skin like a calla Illy In Its coloiloss perfection, with great, daik eyes and sweeping lashes, and heavy waves of nut-hiown hair colled round her grace ful head. She vvoulU make a fair and gracious mis tress for Gordon Leslie's stately homo the home whoso aitlstlc magnificence was the theme of every tongue. He might scaich the woild over, and one more suited to his position than this regal beauty he could never find. He was a veiy pioud man, this Cordon Leslie, pioud of his imiiic.uucicnt nutl hon orable, proud of his beautiful home, and prouder still of his own unblemished life. He had wooed Clsta Despard with state ly courtesy, and had won her promise to bo his wife, and his mind had rested perfectly satisfied on tho subject. Her beauty pleased his eyes, her regal hearing satisfied his pride. In fact, ho could find no flaw in beautiful Cleta Despard. And sho well, this dark-oyod glrl'sheart was harder, perhaps, to read. She loved hliu, or at least believed sho did, and when he had asked her tn be hit wife she lad answered "Vo8." And after that her memory had strayed back to the past. But, after all, what was the past? what had It held for her her? Only the memory of a handsome, boyish lover, who had taken her lu his arms lie- fore ho went to sea, and tpld her of his pas sionate love; ami she, a girl of seventeen had clung to hint in a passion of tears, and promised sho would be true. And the ship had gono down down with almost all tu board, and among them her allant young lover. A few sailors had been saved from tho wreck, and they had carried the tale aslioie. He had been a favorite with every one on board tho vessel, this lisbt-hearted youth, who had loved Cleta Despard so passln, well. His pleasant word and ready smile had won all hearts, and the sailors remem bered him well, anil told how lie had clasped a pictured face to his lips aud mm mured "darling" ere ho sank beneath the waves. The story had b';en brought to Cleta Des pard's home, for her father had been his guardian. Their sweet luvo-dream had been a secret between themselves, for lloy I'ercival had his way lo make tn the world; but they had grown up together, and n one was surprised that when tho sorrowful story was told, Cleta had thrown up her hands with a low cry and fallen white and senseles at her father's feet. l'erhaps Jier mother had learned tho pltti ful truth from her passlonato sobs when consciousness relumed, If no other vvay.for Cleta was naturally proud aud reticent in the extreme, l'erhrfps the pallc- of her beautiful face spoke clearer still to the mother's heart; for one thing certain, Mrs, Despard was stracgely tender to dicta In the days that followed the story. Hut Cleta was little more than child men, ana time neals all wounds, even though it leaves a scar; aud as Ume passed on, the pain faded from tho clear, dark eyes, the proud, crimson lips framed them selves to smiles again. Hut years passed before she smiled on lover again, and only then vrlicii linnjon r . , t . t v 1 . . i -eruaps ncr laoiuer ueyer fprjTrile pai- slouate pain in the proud, dark eyes al the story of Hoy Tcrelval's death, for I ho first cTcning that (lonlon's ring encircled Cleta's linger, her mother drew hel toward her.and locked wistfully Into the dai Is eys that met bets so calmly. "Are you happy, Cleta?" she said softly, with no thought at the moment of the posi tion she renlly coveted for hel beautiful child. The proud, dark eyes had never drooped, no Hush had stained the perfect face. es," tho girl had answered mtletly, "I believe I am;" but Mrs. Despatd knew at: that moment that the ctown of woman's life, perfect loyu for home and husband, would not rest on Cleta's brow. Hut after all, what did itasslonale love over bring but pain aud heaitache, yet who would not suiter something for Its sweet ness' sake! Then Lillian, the baby of the family, had come homo; Lillian with a face like a flow er, oyes of pansy blueand clustering golden hair; but God knbws, as the blight days flew by, (Ionian Leslie never dt earned what made them so strangely blight to lilm.hrlght as no other days had been never dieamed that In his Inmost heart he was false to tho beautiful girl who had promised to be Ills wife, never dreamed that a childish face, a lint of golden hair, the glance of oyes of pansy blue, had become a; tlie lljlit of heaven to hliu. The fatal truth had never dawned upon him till one summer day. Ah, that day! Would he over forget It wlilli life lasted. That day when he, Gordon Leslie, had for gotten honor aud all else In the madness of a moment of awakened love, He and Lillian hail been out together.aml they had climbed a cliff that lay below the Despard homestead, lie ncycr could tell after how It happened, only Lillian's foot had slipped on a stone; and as her foot turned under her, a low cry of pain broke from her lips, and she would have fallen had (iotilon not caught her In his arms ;aud then, with his aims aiouud her, her while face ill ooping on his shoulder, 'he truth flashed over Gordon Leslie, and he knew ho loved Lillian Despard with all the pusslim of his heart. In the madness of the mtnnrut he bent his head aud kissed her lips. ''My daillngl my darling!" he cried. .V swift wave of crimson swept over Lil lian's pale face and the blue eyes grew full of a nameless Ictror. Then memory came hack lo Guidon Les lie and he rould have flung himself al her feet. "Do not look at me like that," lie t iled 'Lillian, I was mad Lillian!" For a moment the blue eyes looked Into his, und then the, gill burst into it passion of tears, and Gordon Lesllo milked that Lillian had learned thu fatal lesson as well. A bitter seoin of himself came over Gor don Leslie and a passionate pity for the childish girl who clung to him in tears. There was no use in dlsettlsing the truth. they loved eaeli other. He took her hands in his. "Lillian," he said, "tho blame is mine. I have been a coward and a traitor." Her only answer was another burst of tears. "Fur our folly wrf must suffer," ho con tinued slowly, "and neihaps vve can alone for this, on my part at least, foi got fulness of honor and duty." And after that they did try to be true to honor and Cleta, but Lillian's wlld-ioseface grew strangely pale, and dark lings that spoke of sleepless nights encltcled the pan sy eyes till, at length, her mother noticed the change. "You had heller take, hel abroad," the doctor said, "a complete change will be tho best medicine for her." Very gladly Lillian consented. Mhe would die if slieienialned near Gordon Les lie Gordon Leslie who had grown so strangely worn and haggard of late. So Lillian went abroad with her mother, and lett Gordon to light the bitterest battle man ever fought left hliu lo wage war with his own heait. Had Cleta Dcspaid loved Gordon Leslie, her own heart would have told her the truth, for what loying woman Is there that roads not, through her own love, the depths of her lover's affection, but calm-eyed and serene Cleta went on her way, and never dreamed of the fiery furnace through which Gordon Lusllo and her pettisi sister were passing. .So the blight summer iossd away and tlien kind fate took up the tangled thread of their lives, when one day a stranger, lironiwl ami brown, stood before Cleta Dea- wnl. A stranger. Only for a moment, and then, white and wild-eyed, she sprung to her feet, her slender form trembling, a look of passionate pain darkening her eyes. Is this my welcome after all these yean?" he said. "Cleta, my darling hayu I frightened you? Cleta, what doee this mean?" for with a low, bitter cry she turned from him aud sank on her knees, her while face burled In her hands. She asked no rptuitions. Nothing of hi long absence and utter allelic?. Only one thought eame to her lie luul come hss-k. "Too late! Too late I" she rrled. He heard her words. '1 may go as I eamo," he saiJ. "but af ter all these years, a captive among savagm, dreaming of you and the past, lioplng against hope that I might eseajie, and then to come Kick to this. ('Mm, It is more Uvan I can hear." And it wa than that fate was wo,itdtoiu kind, and led Gordon Ls!ie on the some. The scene told Its own story a wort win kneeling In a passionate abasimik afpalu, her white face hidden In Iter hands, a man standing looking at her. his vary soul in lib eye. "Am 1 Intruding?" Gordon said haught ily, as Cleta sprung to her feet, her heavy hair, looMiied from its coll, falling In wavy mas around her. In that moment her losolulion was tak en. She gue no thought then to the wealth aud position of Gordon Leslie, no thought that lloy Pcrciyal might have returned as peunlleta as he went away .only heart spoke and she answered it. The lover of her youth had come back aud she Would be true to lm hrJf. Calmly, gravely she told Gordon Lslte ail. 'I have wronged you uuuitentonally," she said "for ad I known Hoy I'ercival WW living. I would not have promised to bo your w lie I km w I had loved him as I could never love another, hut for years I believed him dead, and I was proud lo win your loye. I tell yott this hecauso I bclievo I would wrong you more by becoming vour wife, titan telling yott thnttttlh, even at the eleventh hour." At that Instant he felt that this girl was right. He felt lie had sacrificed Lillian sooner than tell litis daik-eyed girl the tiuth. He half wondeieil then was It pilde or honor that had kept him silent. He would speak now, however.' he owed It lo Cleta, aud sho would be happier If shn knew her act Instead of wrecking would bless his life, if she knew it would hi Ing back the wild-rose bloom lo Lillian's face. He did not mention Lillian's name lu the telling of tho story, only of his passionate love for another and of how It had grown on him without his knowledge, and then bending forward he took her hands hi his. Cleta," he said, "you will wish me well In all my hopes, wtjen I tell Jou, If I win iue woman l ioe, 1 win can you sister in stead of wife." "Lillian! You lovu her',' and she Tto.r- don, 1 have been blind." Far away In sunny Italy Lillian baltlod hrnyely with her pain, but the balmy air and the sunny skies brought no color back to her delicate face, nor llghl to her lovely eyes. Not at first, peihaps, but It was in tho blight land of sunshine and flowers that the lose-llush did return, and the smiles cams back to her lips, tlie soft light tn her eyes, but whether it was the continued breathing of the balmy air, or the coming of a lover who sought hei there, that had the desired effect, one tiling is sun-, from tlie coming of Gordon Loslloand the evening he held her In his :11ms, and kissed her lips as his piomised wife, Lillian was very like her old self again.
