They were standing before a perfum
ery shop In Broad street as I passed
them, two young ladles of manifestly
good society, so retlned was their ap
pearance and so perfectly correct their
tenue. I could not help turning half
around, nnd who should they be but the
nrch-tcase of n cousin of mine, Sybil
Vane, nnd her bosom friend, Owen
O'Hara. It was Sybil that had spoken
nnd she had said:
"Fancy that little fool throwing her
self away on n man like that when
eho knows he only wants her for her
monev."
"What little fool of a man?" I ask
ed, ns t raised my lint by way of an
apology for the intrusion.
"Oh, you men. You never know any
thing," said Sybil when she had re
covered from the shock my question
had evidently occasioned.
"Then tell me," I rclolued. "You
never have any secrets from me you
know at least not for long."
"Why, Honor Beaumont and Captain
Fnulklner, to be sure."
"Are they engaged to bo married?"
"Of course they are, and ho hasn't
n penny, while she has mil 1 Ions."
"Well, he Is a very handsome fellow,
and she Is passable."
"They say that ho cheated at rards,
that he's In everybody's debt, and that
he Is nothing short f ' a mere adven
turer. And yet Ho r Beaumont has
accepted him. I say It's really to bad
of her."
I had known Fnulklner for some
years, and I nm bound to say I had
very little to urge In his defense. He
had never been actually caught in any
nefarious proceeding, but It was known
that he had run through most of his
friends, that he was wonderfully lucky
nt faro, and that ho was anxiously
looking for nn heiress,
The wedding day took place nnd
about four months afterwnrds Mr. and
Mrs. Fnulklner were back In town,
apparently the happiest people to bo
found at Belgravla.
As for Faulklner, ho seemed com
pletely changed. There was n manli
ness about him that one never no
ticed before; his eyes wore a frank
expression that was truly refreshing
to see. He was clearly devoted to his
wife, nnd they seemed to perfectly
understand nnd trust each other.
What could it mean?
Gradually I got to really like Faul
klner. He made a splendid host, was
a pattern of the domestic, virtues and
Impressed one as being the soul of hon
or. Our acquaintance finally ripened
Into a close friendship, and the Intim
acy developed until at length I found
myself how I know not on terms of
real confidence with the man whom,
only a few months before, I had been
Inclined to look upon very much In the
light In which he was regarded by my
cousin Sybil.
One evening he expounded the mys
tery. "Shall I tell you the story of my
courtship, Jack?" he asked.
"As you will, my dear fellow," I re
plied, "if It isn't too sacred a subject
for a third party."
"That's just It It Is a sacred sub
ject, as you will see."
He lit a cigar and proceeded:
"All that the world thought tind said
of me before I was married was true,
and more than true, I was a 'regular
bad lot.' And It Is true also that in
proposing to Miss Beaumont I was ac
tuated by the most mercenary motives,
and those alone.
"All that I wanted was her money
her money, Juck, do you hear? The
world said so, and the world was per
fectly right. My chief anxiety was to
prevent her getting any inkling of the
truth, nnd so I never ceased to dance
constant attendance on her, nnd espec
ially to withdraw her ns far as pos
sible from her lady friends. All went
well until one evening nt the Vllller's
ball she took me on one side, saying:
" 'Fritz' she always called me Fritz,
rather than Frank 'I want to speak
to you."
" 'What is It. darling?'
" 'You are not to call me darling any
more till this matter is cleared up.'
" 'What matter, dear?'
" 'Just this. People are saying that
you are marrying mo merely for my
money; Is that so?'
" 'Of course, not; I love you for your
self " 'Stop, stop! I nm going to put you
to the proof. You know my solicitors
Messrs. Hopkins & Dicey, in Lincoln's
Inn?'
" 'Yes.'
" 'Well, meet me there tomorrow at
noon sharp; and now, good-night!'
"In a moment she was gone. I passed
a sleepless night, and with great diffi
culty nerved myself in the morning to
keep the mysterious appointment.
"Old Dicey I call him that because
he is now one of my dearest friends
received me coldly.
" 'I have been favored, Captain Faul
klner,' he said, 'with some very extra
ordinary instructions from my client
your fiancee Miss Beaumont. I must
entirely disclaim all responsibility In
the matter. I have simply given effect
to Miss Beaumont's wishes, and the
final Issue of them must rest entirely
with yourself. If you please, we will
go to the adjoining room, where Miss
Beaumont awaits us.'
"We found her seated near a window.
She did not rise, but simply bowed, and
I saw that her face was pale, and that
it wore an expression of apparent en
forced calm.
" 'Fritz, I told you last night that
people are saying you are marrying mo
merely for my money. It matters little
to me now whether they speak the
truth or not. If they do, then, whether
or not you become my husband, is the
light gone out of my life indeed. You
know, Fritz, how I love you! If you
have done this cruel thing, nothing can
undo it now. If you have designed to
beggar me, under the pretext of affec
tion, fortune or no fortune, husband or
no husband, can make no difference to
me. But It shall never be said that
you uctually did marry me for my
money, and so, Fritz, I have asked Mr.
Dicey to draw up u deed, which
which' and here the poor darling
broke down completely and could say
no more.
" 'The deed, Captain Faulklner,' said
Mr. Dicey, with frigid solemnity, is
an uncommon one; I know, Indeed, of
no precedent. But It relates that, In
consideration of Captain Francis Ar
thur Faulklner of the Second Life
Guards releasing Miss Honor Beau
mont, of Hurstfleld house, Hertford
shire, from her engagement to. marry
him, the said Miss Honor Beaumont
herewith mukes over to the said Cap
tain Francis Arthur Faulklner all her
real and personal property, as sche
duled herewith, save and except the
residence known us "The Grove," Isle
worth, In the County of Middlesex,
and as much of her Midland Hallway
debenture stock as will suffice to pro
vide an annuity of $1,500 a year.'
"I turned half mechanically to Hon
or. Sho was still calm nnd pale, but
her eyes were brimful of tears.
"'It Is impossible!' I, exclaimed, And

Just at that moment something seemed
to struggle within me, for out of the
depths of my sinful heart there came
welling the tiny, feeble remnnnt of the
little good It ever held.
"I felt as If I could give not only
love but life to that noble woman who
had proposed to herself this mad, this
fearful sacrifice In order to put to
proof the sincerity of the man she
loved. Disregarding the presence of
the man of law I clasped her In my
arms, and we yes, Juck, we wept to
gether. "I treasure now that sacred parch
ment which awakened to new life the
little good ihat was left in me which
aroused the deadened sense of unsel
fish love nnd gave me riches greater
far than my villainy had ever dreamed
of. Do you wonder, Jack, that I am a
changed man?"
And that was the sequel of the con
versation In Horn! street.
