Everj body declared that Hugh Cole wood onght to be the happiest min in Greenville. He was yon eg, handsome and well educated ; then, just A3 he was preparing to fight big way to fame with poverty ar rayed aaint him, he had suddenly been made the sole heir to the line old estate of hia eccentric aant, Miss BeUy Cole- wood, recently deceased. What more was necessary to the hap- pine. of a gay young fellow like Hugh Colewood? Nothing, it seemed to the envious bachelors. However, there were conditions, or one at least, in bin aants wiilwnica caused him no little uneasiness. He must love and marry the girl of her choice, one whom he hod never seen. Hugh Colewood caught np his aunt's last letter to him and read it again and again, hoping to find some little loop hole of escape from the gall'ngeondition. Bat it was there in merciless black and white. This is the part that worried kim. "If you cannot comply with my wish es lor you to meet r.tnet ntyse and love and marry her, yoa forfeit toot heirship to my estaU-s. Ethel's mother was my dearest friend, and if you marry ber daughter it will be fululling my fondest desires. You cannot help lov ing her. "I could not rest in my tomb peaceful y and know that Ethel was cot mistress of my estates, and you aear boy, tiie master. My lawyer, Mr. Cranston, will arrange far you to meet Ethel, as he ia one of her guardians. You know how thoroughly I despise old bachelors there fore I give you warning that I will not allow you to inhabit my hooaeand lands as one of that disagreeable, crusty order." So had written the eccenlrtc spinster. Hugh nibbled the ends of his mustache impatiently as he pondered on the con ditions which the wl'.i imposed. Hugh loved the Colewood estate, and could not bear to think of giving them up. Now, if the will had not specified whom he must marry, but left the selec tion cf a wife entirely to himself, Hugh believed that he would have enjoyed the romance of hunting for a bride. He picked up his hat and rushed from his room, going up to the hotel where Mr. Cranston was stopping, while he ar ranged soue business matters with Hugh "Hello, Colewood ! Have a seat," said the lawyer, scrutinizing the flashed face and nervous manner of his visitor. He was just wondering to himself if tht un expected good fortune kad lurne-' young Colewood's head, when his visitor re marked : ""ou are aware of that one peculiar feature in my late aunt's will, Mr. Cran ston ?" L:ght at once dawned upon the law yer, and there was a twinkle in bis eyes. However, he asked indifferently : "To what peculiar feature .'o yoa re fer, Mr. Colewood?" "The one that absurdly commands me to marry a girl that I have never seen. 'Oh, that returned Mr. Cranston. Y'ou are a lucky fellow, Colewood. That's the best part of the fortune." "It's the most exasperating part," Hugh cried desperately. "How can a fallow love and wed to order?" "Well, it's a deal of time and bother saved to the wooer," remarked the law yer, puling. "I've no doubt Ethel Wayne will suit yoa better than any se lection you are capable of making." Hugh Colewood flushed warmly at the lawyer's cool observation and he spoke hotly. Tm eure she won't suit me, air. The estate can go to charity for all I care. I don't love any woman, and X love my freedom too well to marry yet a bile. I don't want to be thrust upon any wo man for the sake ef a fortune, and I don't suppcae Miss Wayne cares two straws about the absurd condition in my aunt's will." "It ia very likely, although Ethel had the greatest respect for the late Miae Colewood, and was very careful to hu mor all her vagaries," rrtunied.Crariston, much amused over young Colewood's ex citement. "However, I hardly feel able to state wether the girl would accept Miss Colewood's last vagary in the shape of her impulaive nephew, or not," "I shall not give her the opportunity," said llaghgettled at the lawyer's words. "Hold on, Colewood. Let's drop non sense and coaoe to buxineas. Yoa like your aunt's estate, but yoa cannot retain thetn without complying with her wish es. Yoa have never met the girl whom 3IAY 11, 1892. your aunt ha chosen. Ferhapa it will be proven that yoa are neither of yoa op posed to fuliilling the condition. "At least yoa must meet. I will ar range thai- Ethel will pass the summer with my sister in the country and 111 manage it for yoa to spend a few wewks with them. You can very soon tell whether the condition ia wholly obnox ious or not. What do yoa say V "I will do as yoa advise, thank you, sir," replied Hugh, who had now cooled off and was trying to take a business view of the strange situation. Four weeks later Hugh Colewood was speeding away from Greenville on the morning express, bound for a little town among the blue bills of Virginia. When he stepped from the train he was disappointed to dnd no one waiting to convey him to the country ho ne of Mr. Cranston's sister a Jistance of eight miles. He was in tae act of asking the way to the bst hotel when a buggy came rapid ly up to the station and halted. The station agent hurried forward to meet the driver, who was a alender young girl, with bright, dark eyes and hair as golden as the June sunbeams touching those hills. "Is Mr. Cofcwood, of Greenville, wait ing here to ride out to Mr. Thurston's?" inqiired the fair driver in a sweet voice which won Hugh's interest at once. "I am here and waiting, thank y ja," returned Hugh for himself, smiling pleas antly as he came forw ard on the station platform. "I came to drive ycu to Mrs. Thurs ton's," she answered simply. Lall I take the reins?" he adked as they started away. "No, thank you ; I like to drive," she answered. "It was too bad for you to take so long a drive for a stranger," he rr mated as he stole a side glance of admiration at the girlish form in dainty blue. "Ob, I didn't mind the distance at all ; besides, I rather had to xe," she repli ed ; "I did wish tog with the young folks who are having a picnic this ui'irn icg over on Laurel hill, but Uncle Jerry was sick, and of course he couldn't come for you. 'Then Mrs. Thurston and Miss Wayne never drive, so they made a virtue of necessity and sent the last resort of the place," and she laughed merrily. "It ia too bad my coming prevented yoa joining the picnickers," he saij, "I all not be able to forgive myself." "That's nothing. I am enjoying my self cow too well to think of Laurel hill," she returned brightly. "Thank you, and at the same time let me assure you that I, too, am enjoying myself excellently well," and Hugh bow ed to the young girl, n hose eyes drooped beneath the warm light cf admiration in his blue ones. 'I hope you will enjoy your viiit, Mr. Colewood," she said, to charge the sub ject. "I know Mrs. Thurston and Ethel will do ail they can to make yoursray pleasant." 'Thank you ; I've no doubt I shall find it pleasant," returned Hugh, "loatoo, are one of Mrs. Thurston's summer house hold, I suppose V "Yes," with a emile. "Yoa see I am a distant relative to Mrs. Thurston ; then Miss Wayne ia my cousin and exercises a kind of cousinly guardianship over me, which no doubt ia very necessary. "So tou are Miss Wavne's cousin? I do not remember hearing Mr. Cranston mention you. I did not expect to ha e the pleasure of meeting any ladies but Mrs. Tborston and Mie Wayne." "How unkind in Mr. Cranston not to prepare yoa for this meeting," and there was a roguish gleam in her eyes which Hugh did not nee. "I had up to date re garded Mr. Cranston as one of my very best friends, but to ignore me so utterly, when he knew I would accompany Coc-in Ethel here, locks like downright intentional neglect." "Yoa have not given me the pleasure of knowing your name," said Huh, both amused and pleased with Lis pretty driver. "Ob, I'm a Wayne, too," she aasercd laughingly. '"Ethel Estelia Wayne, va riously nicknamed, as you will observe later on." Two Ethel Waynes! Here was a real surprise for Colewood. Why ha 1 Crans ton not mentioned that strange fut to him? If the Ethel Wayne referred to in the will wasonly half as animated and gen erally captivating as the cue by his si.ls Hugh thought it might be an easy matter after ail to obey that condition shich had so vexed him, Colewood received a cordial welcome at Mrr Thurston's pleasant home. He found Mias Wayne to be a tall, digniiied girl of about twenty-three, with coal black hair and deep gray ey. She was as unlike her little merry hearted cousin as it was possible to be. Yea, Hugh decided she was just such a woman as his eccentric aunt would be likely to select as the wife of her heir. In the weeks which followed Hugh's arrival he saw a great deal of Mis Wave, although much of her time was divided between her Liate for Tterature and in remonstrating against the inno cent pranks of her cousin. It did not require a long time for the young man to realize that he could never love Miss Wayne as the maa should love the girl whom be intends to marry. He made another important discovery, that his life would be a failue without the little cousin te furnish daily sun shine and wifely cheer for his own home. He resolved to let Miss Wayne have one-half of his aunt's estates and the orphan asylum the other. He would marry the girl of hi own choice, provid ed he could win her, and boldly fight his own way through tife. Having so decided, Hugh set out for a stroll along the rwer, feeling more man ly for his resolve. He came suddenly npon a little figure in white, residing, in a little viney nook by the river's side. Wait, Estelle," he called, for she had a arted to run away; "I shall leave to morrow, and I have something to say to yoa which yoa must Lear." The telltale flash which swept over face and neck at bis words might have given some hint of an easy surrender. However, in a moment she bad regain ed that customary piquancy which had more than once exasperated Hagh. "I'd be sorry to have yoa leave as with any burden on your mind," she said p re era voking! y. "It is needless Ljt mo to tell you why it was arranged for me to meet Miss Wayne here," he said, unheeding her light words. "Yoa know, I suppose." "Some alight idea, I believe she return ed, fingering her book. "Weil, I may as well tel! yoa that con dition in my late aunt's will nevr be ful filled." "And hy cot?" "Eecaa-e I love another," he cried pas sionately. "Ob, Eelie: can yoa cot see .how tenderly, how arlent'y I Kve you ? Without you I shall make a fail ure of life. Won't you show mercy, Estelle r "Oh, Hugh! would yoa marry a poor girl when yea have a chance to win a dignified briJe and retain those princely estates?" sheakL "Yes, darling. I prefer yoa with love in a cottage to the wealthiest woman with all the estate in the world 1" "Kish statement," young man. "It is true. Do no: torture on longer. Ertelle. Can yoa not love me a little "No." "Then yoa do not ioe me?" -I'm afraid I d .j." "Io not mock me, Estelle." I am not mocain tou. H-Ji, '-n a very swoet voice. "Then you do love me a little?" "No, not a little, but very much." He would have caught her to his breast but she eluded his arre-i, crying - "Oh, there's Uncle Cranston '." and she rushed forwarl to greet the little lawyer, who was approaching them un?n. "It is u-jcless fr raj to ignora factj," said Mr. Cranston pleasantly.
