SYNOPSIS.
William West hns been settled ai a cler
gyman In Mercer fur llfteen yeats, and has
taken Ills place In thu community as a
man of Judgment and ehaiacter. Ho had
bet n taken from an institution as a lad
and put thtough college by a Professor
Wilson, who had recognised his qualltUs,
and who IjKiueathed to him u considerable
sum of money Amy Townsond has come
to Meicei to visit her friends, the Pauls.
John I'aul being senloi wntden of West's
church, and her cousin. Amj and West
ate biotight togcthil b Mrs Paul, and
become engaged, being grcatlj In loo
and esteeming each othei's iualltles hlgh
lj They ale to bo mauled In two weeks.
Wist comes to see Amy and thu Pauls,
and the combination dilfts Into the "sub
ject of confession of pi e Ions faults
undu vat Ions circumstances. Aftei much
dlscustlon, Am decline thu she believes
that engaged coliphs should do this West
leaves In a veij thoughtful mood He le
membeis a soilous fault committed twen
tj -three cnis btfoie, as a lad He feels
that ho has atoned foi It, and aftei much
rtllectlou, decides not to tell hei. Then,
tho next da, he Is Impelled to do so He
announces his Intention, and Amy tells
lilm that she Is not afraid to hear.
PAKT IV.
Her Innocent ptlde save him a mo
ment of Hlmip discomfort; curiously
enough, what he hud to tell her had not
connected itself, In his mind, with pei
tonal cmbauasment; it had been too
remote fiom himself. He found hlni
sell hesltatliiK foi a woid.
' Pci haps 1 am a fctpl to tell you," he
began, "it may make jou unhappy,
unci "
A strutted look ciine Into Amy's ees;
then the color Hooded up Into her face.
She lifted her head with a beautiful
Impellents gestuie, and stopped him
with a word
' I understand. Don't tell me. I
understand " She bit her lip as she
spoke, and her eyelids qui vet ed as
though the teais had ilsen suddenly.
"You undeitatund I'' he tepeated, In
a puzzled voice; "do jou mean you
don't want me to tell you?"
"William," she said, in a low -voice,
"I do not think a woman has any busi
ness , Ith a good man's, life In the past;
If he wus not good." She trembled
ab she spoke, aud then her eyes sought
Ills, fined with loe and gilef.
A wao of tenderness made nls whole
fuce melt and qulei; he mu: mured
"omelhlng of his undesett of such love
as this "You aie not like other wom
en," he told hei, as eoij loei has told
his mlstiess since the sun Hist shone
on lovers. "It Isn't what jou think "
She dtew a quick bieath and smiled.
"Ah," she said, "I'm glad!" Hei ie
llef was so appaient thut he realised
how austeiel t-weet her face had been
as she foi gave him. It gave the man
n sense of the meaning of the divine
loe coming down to eaith for us men
and for mu salvation. He was abash
ed befoie her, 'and It seemed to him
his love Was a foi m of worship.
"Go on and tell me," she said; "I am
not aft aid to hear anything, now."
"What! jou can foighe anything''"
he asked hei , w Ith his w hlmslcal smile.
She Hashed a look of pride nt him.
"Ah!" she said, "the things I could
not foighe. jou could not do!"
This made him glow. Aftei all, who
would not confess, anything, to be met
bj such confident love as this?
"This happened long ago, Amy; when
I was nineteen. I forged a check for
fle bundled dollars."
'Toiged!" hei lips fell apait; she sat
staling at him.
He was holding her hand, lifting it to
his lips, sometimes, and looking at It as
It lay In his. He went on, quietlv:
"It was when I was at college; I
needed money; and, poor, desperate,
wicked, silly young man, I foiged Pi of.
Wilson's name. I don't know what I
supposed would become of me when It
was found out. And I don't know what
would have happened, but Heniy Wil
son died befoie the month was out, and
so, by some strange chance, It never
was discoveted. If It had been well,
jou and I would not have been hete to
day. Human justice would hae intei
liosed before Divine meicy " He
looked up with a solemn elation which
seemed to nut self out of his mind. "I
might hae gone lower and lowei!
Who can say? It was an easy thing to
do, for I was his secietaiy, and he
tt listed me. That, of couise, was the
most honible pait of what I did, the
pait that now seems to me lncompie-
""I HAD TOHGOTTHN IT."
hensible the bioken ttust! Well, of
couise, I made lepiuntlon, as I called
it, out of the money he left me. I gae
avvuj many times the amount I stole;
but It was only because I was scaied at
the tisk I had nut, and the thought of
It haiassed me. It was a sou of expe
dient motnlltj, a sou of bat gain with
my conscience foi peace of mind. Then,
about a year nfteiwatds, I met X ,
1 heaid him pi each, and life changed.
How extinordlnailly it seems to look
back upon it now! Then I repented
Hefoie I had onlj lefoimed. That was
when I entered the divinity school. Cut
Just, Amy, Just think of the difference!
How life might have gone jet hete I
am today, jour lover, your husband!
Oh' the metcy of God!"
He was deeply moved He got up and
walked the length of the loom. Amy
sat silently looking down at her hands
In her lap When ho came back his
eyes were full of peace.
"That is all, deatest; now we will
forget It. You know my life as you do
yoir own."
"Foi get It?" she repeated, with a
sudden, cobbing laugh, that tore at the
man's heart.
"Amy! dearest! have I shocked you
so? nembembei, It was twenty-three
J'ears ago; I was only a boy. Let me tell

you how It was: I was madly In love
with awoman, at least, It was not love,
but I thought It was; she fascinated
me, and"
"Oh, go on; go on!" she Interrupted,
hontsely; "as If that matteted!"
He tiled to take her hand, but she
made a ptetense of ni ranging the
llowers In her bolt; her head was
turned a little fiom him. He leaned
foi w aid, with a grave ntithoilty to
command her attention, took the pan
sles ft out her, and held them In his
hand.
"Well; I was possessed to marry her.
Of cotttse, she would not look at me a
penniless, chailty student! But I
strained eveiy nerve to win her. It
was the old stoty. She took my llovv
eis, or theatie tickets, or anything
I could give her. Curious the meicen
utlness of the woman did not luvolt

me! But I was mad about her. I
thought, at last, that if I had money
I could give her some Jewels she want
ed, and perhaps she would accept me.
That was how it came about. She took
the diamonds, and eloped with a mai
tled man two days after vv aids."
As he told the stoiy the giossness of
It all came over him the offense of the
exquisite delicacy of the gltl beside
him.
"But I ought not to have told jou
this," he stammeied.
"What?" she said, dully. "About the
woman? Oh, as If that matteted1" She
turned fiom him shatplj', putting the
back of her hand against her lips as
though to hide their quiver.
Then she butst out: 'Oh, why did
you tell me? Why? Why? Oh, I wish
you had not told me'" She shook fiom
head to foot. "But It will make no dif
ference! I will not let it make any
difference. I am going to many you.
Only I never knew jou."
Those most teulble words, those
wotds with which Love destiojs Itself,
came like a blow between the eves. He
giew very pale. She stopped ctylng
suddenly, and stood, panting.steadjing
heiself by her hands upon his bteast,
and staling at him. There was some
thing almost ten trying In this sudden
pause and in her binning look.
It's the one thins;," she said, "don't
jou see, that lasts? It Isn't like other
things."
"But It was not I," he said, mechan
ically. "Not I, the man you you
thought jou knew. It wus a boy,
twenty-thtee jeais ago. Amy, Amy!
Tvvontj -thiee jeats ago!"
She did not listen; she kept repeating
to herself. ' It bhall make no diftetence.
I will not let it make any dlltcrenco"
Alas, It was not fot hei to saj ! The
dllieience was made; the Jewel ctushed
under foot is no mote a Jewel; the tose
tin own into the flte is no mote a lose.
The stained human s-oul is no mote the
Innocent human soul.
"But jou must listen to me, Amy," he
said. "No, X will not speak until you
ate calm. Sit down. Look at me. Now,
listen to what I have to say." He fotced
himself to speak jlow ly and gently, ns
one does to a tetilfied, utneasonable
child.
"Dear, I had foi gotten It. So little
Is it a pait of my life that I had loigot
ten It. When I leruembeied It last
night, it was a sense of astonishment,
a sense of pity foi the mad boy who did
it. I had no personal shame It seemed
to belong to some one else, whom f
watched with sonovv and Indignation.
I do not believe that today, mote than
twenty yeuts aftei vv aids, I have any
business to think of It."
"Then why did jou tell me?" she
said, weaiilj. "Oh, don't talk about
it anymoie I am going to foignt it.
Good-by f am going up-italrs, I have
a headache. Clood-by."
She let her hand slip listlessly out of
his, and left him standing, blanklj,
his lips paited for another ptotest, and
the llowers fiom her belt between his
llngeis,
As he went out past the drawing
room door, Mis. Paul called to hlin
"Do come hete a moment, Mi West,
(Isn't Amy ptetty In her wedding
diess') You teally must tell me what
to do about something. Thete Is a
famllj " and she enteied upon a puz
sMing question of teller woik, hei fore
head gatheilng Into a flown, yet with
her kind eyes denying the severe com
mon sense of her statement, that ir a
man will not woik neither shall he
eat.
"But you see, we can't let the chll
dten go hungty," she ended.
The consldeiatlon or other people's
weaknesses and wickedness, gave Wil
liam West time to get his breath; he
tluew hlmseir Into the question with
that Intelligent sympathy which was
chuiacterlstlc or him. He pointed out
this; he suggested that; he cleared the
puzzle out or Mis. Paul's face, and all
the time he was hair dearened by a
clamoring suspicion: "Have I been a
fool? She will never forget It! It will
alwajs be between us. I've been a covv
uidly fool,"
"Well, that's all settled," said Mis
Paul, with an air of tellef; "now tell
me, what day shall I have Amy's things
sent to the tectory? And shull I take
the stiver fiom the bank the day be
foie you arrive? Is it safe to leave
It at your house? I hate the tesponsi
blllty of other people's silver!"
"Oh, ceitulnly, yes," he answered,

suddenly absent! and, with a cuit
good-bye, left her.
Somehow or other, he linrdly knew
how, he got .through the day. Thete
wus a set vice In the nfteinooi, and
thete wete other people's affulus unci
soi tow s to teiiiember; foituitately,
thete ulunjs Is duty for us poor hutiinii
creatines ns a tefuge ftom our
thoughts! Duties to be done saved
William West from desperately going
back to see Amy, to explain. For he
was guilty of the Impulse of "explana
tion," the babble with whicn the weak
mind Is forever annotating Its temaiks
or Its opinions.
Well, the day passed, In spite of a
cmvlng to see Amy that was almost
agonizing, he held on to his common
sense, and left her to heiself. His lnvv
j'er enmo In In the evening, bilnglng
some papers In regntd to certain prop
etty which It was the minister's Inten
tion to make over to hla wife, and the
looking these over, and the business
talk, was a tellef to him, He began to
feel that ho had taken Amy's pertut bu
tton much too seriously, it would be nil
tight; she would see things cleat ly
when the fltst dismay had passed He
thought, tendetlj, that he must not let
her feel anj legtet for having foi n mo
ment shown him her pain at whit he
had told her Her pain was only pint
of net exquisite goodness, that goou
ness which held her, l emote and lovely,
like some pine and luminous stai, so
far above the soidld meanness and
wickedness ot common life that she
could not understand them; perhaps
BURST INTO THE ROOII.
even she could not pity him. Only the
slnlessness which was In nil points
tempted like as we aie, can at once un
dei stand, and pltj his thoug.it, chast
ened and passionate, lied back to his
Mastei for comfoit, jet thete was no
leptoach of Amj In his mind.
It must have been aftei ten, as he
and Mr. Woodhouse sat befoie the
btoad wilting table, with the llttel of
papers and memotanda before them,
that John Paul suddenly buist Into the
loom.
The senior wai den's stiong, kind face
was Hushed; he was plainly ptofoundly
distutbed and upset.
"West" he said, explosively, and
stopped, seeing that thej were not
alone "Mj dear rellow, my dear
West," he began again, stammeilng
with ugitatlon, "can I see jou a mo
ment? A matter of business. Wood
house, it jou don't mind? Can we go
into another loom, West;
But the lawjer protested that he was
Just about to go home. "I have a wife;
you'll see how It Is youiself, Blllj-,
Ptetty soon! Lois allows me twenty
illumes leeway of the hour I name to
get home, and If I'm not back tnen, she
thteatens to send a policeman after
me! Good night. C.ood night, John."
And he went whistling off into the
night.
The minister had not spoken,
"Look hete." John Paul said, as the
fiont dooi banged, "what under the
sun is this business1' Good Lotd, West,
Amj's sent jou a letter Kate told me
to bieak It to jou, but I confound It,
man go and lead it The gill's ciazj.
Go and lead It What aie we going io

questions which are constantly brought up in every day life,
can be found within its covers, as well as complete political',
census and other statistics relating to nation, state, county
and city, together with an unlimited amount ot other useful
information, all of which is carefully indexed.
To show that this publication is all that we claim, we
