"Aud so you really think there is ntith-
iog serious in Margaret's naughtniuees,
I my dear Kir," said
la.-biunally dressed
! lady of five tid forty summers to a geut
'. Icinan fifteen years her junior, who Blood

I "Xothiug at all serious, my dear Airs.

'man nuietlv.
"And what do vou think I had Letter
do w ith her ?"
"Send her tome if you like," was the
negligent answer,
Thc lady's anxious face cleared aud
brightened at once.
"Would you really take her ':"
"If it wi.l give you tdcasuie I w ill be
happy to do so."
"Oh, it will be such a weight off my
mind, Mr.' Strong. I cannot ti 11- you
what I have Buffered from the girl's pe
culiar ways since I came into ibis hguse
to live. Fond as I was of Ju lge Gray,
I doubt if ever I could have made up
my mind t' take him bad 1 known as
much of his only ch LI as I know now.
And, eiuce Lr faihrs death, the has
tun wild positively wild, Mr. Strong
1 have not the slightest control ov,--r her
fn fact, she sets every one at defiance,
aud v. hat '
"Yes, my dear madam," said Mr
Strong, bowing politely, as if he thought
she h:td completed her sentence. "I can
easily understand it 'all.' But send her
to me and we will see what can be done.
I have had some will naturrs in my
time. Good afternoon, madam "
With these words a human destiny
was decided.
The r.ext day saw Margaret, the only
daughter and heiress of tbe lale Judgi
Gray, sitting quietly at a desk in thc vil
lage academy among a group of girls,
who eyed her over their school books as
8 ealihily and curiously as' if slie liad
been a newly imported kaugaroo.
First, because with her clear, bright
brunette complexion, her large dark eyes,
and her curling, brown lair, she was by
far thc handsomest giil in tbe whole
school.
Secondly, because Bhe was an heiress.
'J'hiidly and lastly, because they bad
heard itMny a tale of her haughty and
capricious temper, and were in daily and
hourly expectation of a strife for the
iHiiastery between her and their g;-ave and
handsome teacher, whose authority no
one within those walls would ever dream
of dispulitig, unless, indeed, it would be
her. '
l'ut much lo the wonder, and very
pos?ibly to the disappointment of the
school girls,, no euch outbreak had oc
curred, Margaret, perched in tho library
gallery Bt home, among her well-beloved
book, and beard her stepmother's accusa-
'll l "I
tioti, and the teacher 8 laughing reply -
Neither of the speakers bad been awaro
of her presence, and she did not make it
manifest by word, or look, or sign. But
when they had gone, she clenched her
little baud, vowed passionately to her
self that she would surprise them both,
aud make Ler stepmother . appear to
others the harsh, censorious and unjust
woman she hcrseif, in her own" secret
heart, had always been willing to believe
her. .
Accordingly, when informed of the ex
isting arrangement, she nttered no word
of opposition, much to the astonishment
of Mrs. Gray, who could scarcely be
lieve her own eyes when she saw Mar
gaiet obediently leave the house each
morning with her satchel of school books
swinging from her arm. Mr. Strong
was also puzzled. His deep blue eyes
often met those brown ones with a look
of wondering inquiry that made Margaret

' questions; tlie oilier nuswered none.
And so the days went on, and "Margaret
passd her 'first esn'an triumphapt-
i ly, and was proco'imcd the heet and
must promising scholar in the school.
She ought, therefore, to have been
happy. But it was with a very sad face
that she went up the familiar hall, just
at dubk, ion the evening of the great ex
amination day, to collect Ler booka, and
take one last ' secret look at a place
which she would never again see tenant
e'd as it had been tenanted of late the
master's chair. 1,1
There it stood npon the raised plat
form, empty and desolrtte. Tbe stately
figure th:it filled it like i throne was ab

A step crossed the hall hastily, an arm
was thrown around her waist ; that voice,
all hurried aud agitated, was speaking in
her very ear.
"Mv pupil! Oh,' if I were younger or

He tais. d it to his lips, and a hot tear

seemed to bum in the soft white fLsh.

The pleasant
and the haml
jpue to return

And twenty years passed by.
To Margaret they seemed to bring lit
tle of trial or chauge.
She siill d(.lt in her old borne, though
her fashioiiabL: mother had lonr since
left it to share tho mansion of a merchant
piinceupou Fifth aveuue.
Margaret felt no desire to share the
s; leudor of -which the late widow was so
iuordiiittc.lv proud. The dear old home
stead was g..id and good enough for
her, aud all the dearer, if the truth must
be told, since the jarring preseuce was
removed. So she dwelt there quietly,
with a maiden aunt for chaperon aud
company -f and all her schoolmates were
manied, uud she alone remained as evur,
Marg-trct Gray.
It was not, however, for lack of offers
that she lived this single, solitary life.
Many a lover had come to won ; for
brown curls, and soft dark eyes, and rosy
cheeks and Grecian features, and perfect
lipn do lint often go begging tor a pur
chaser when backed by such a fortune as
Margaret possessed. She had suitors
by the score, until it came publicly to be
understood that she would rather see the
suitors at a distance, or wooing some one
cite. After that no one ventured to try
his luck with Judge Gray's heiress, and
the rejected lovers -toustdtd themselves
as speedily as possibly by marrying the
prettiest of her friends
Margaret went cheerfully to each wed
diug wished the bridegroom joy, and gave
to the bride some beautiful aud valuible
gifts. Evidently she was then "wearing
the willow'' for no one. What could the
meaning of celibacy so determined be ?
And the days and years went on.'and a
birthday came at last, which showed how
the school giil if fifteen was now the
woman of thirty-five.
On that day, Margaret, arranging her
abundant tresses - before the glass, saw
the first gray hair.
Silo stopped to look at it with a mel
ancholy smile. ' .
"Ah, he would not say I was too
young now," sho exclaimed.
And just then a tap came at the door,
and the servant entered aud brought her
a card.
"The gentleman is below, lisa Mar
garet, and would like to speak with you,
if convenient,'' said the girl. .. .
Margaret looked at the card. ,
. "Kllison Strong."
The room reeled round cn3 round,
and she turned so pale that the giil was
then frightened.
"Sure, Mtss JIargaret, it is ill that ye
are, and I'll go down and send the gen
tleman away."
"No, no !" said Margaret, recovering
her composure with -an effort. "Help
me to fiuish dressing, Kate; I mast see

Kate, with a woman's quickness, guess
ed something of the truth, and did her
best to make her mistress look as pretty
as possible. -
With the oil color iu l.er cheek, aud
the old Happy light in her soft, brown
ej-es, Margaret stole down the stairs
But at the door a sudden thought startled
aui checked her.

A little sobered by this misgiving, she
opened the door.
She locked for a man almost a strati-!

cares of twenty years; a man whose
brow was furrowed, a.nd whose statues
