MAKING IT EVEN.
lam an animal painter. I have studied my
art in nearly every menagerie in the country,
and.so have come in contact with strange peo
ple and have seen uncommon sights ; and thus
it was that in order to draw at my leisure some
newly arrived creatures with the wildness of
the desert and jungle still within them, I
joined a travelling company for the summer,
and so beheld the thrilling scene I here record.
. The owner of the show was a good-natured
soul of the rolling stone sort, who never gath
ered as much moss as he deserved, and yet
allowed no fungus of funds to interfere with
social fellowship or a kindly action ; and con
sequently tho people about him worked with a
friendly will, and except during the necessary
journeying and labor there were generally jolly
times among the employes of the Grand Un
rivaled Cosmopolitan Menagerie. There was
only one man who never larked and never
Bang, never joked and never grumbled ; who
was always silent without being sbrly, took .
his share of things to do and seemed to set
himself apart from his comrades In sheer lone
liness of spirit ; ho shirked no toll and yield
ed no confidence. Gradually it fell upon
him, as from his own choice, to attend the
cages, and to perform all the jobs that the
boldest sometimes shrank from as dangerous,
though he showed no signs of fear,and evinced
no distaste for his exceptionable employment.
I watched him often as ho busied himself
about the beasts, and had to admire in this
common-looking and uncultivated man the
unconscious coolness and courage with which
he accomplished his self-appropriated tasks.
At length my curiosity concerning him was
sufficiently excited to ask Mr. Kingeley, the
proprietor of the menagerie, if lie knew any
thing more of him than what appeared on his
every-day surface.
Mr. Hingaley hesitated a moment before he
answered and then slowly said :—" lam
rather sorry you questioned nit) about Quiet
Bill—that's what the men call him, you know
—for no ono else has cared to guess that there
may be more connected with him than just the
business he seems to belong to ; and of all the
folks in this caravansary he and I are the only
ones that know what he was before he came
here; and if I tell you, it is just because you
see the 'man's a man for a' that,' and because
J know you'll keep the secret. I don't sup
pose you remember, as the papers are so full
of murders now a-days, one that was commit
ted years ago in the county town of Cl—.
Not a cold-blooded atrocity; though,but the 'r
un of jealousy provocations and liquor, and
not altogether unjustifiable either. Bill was
the chap did it, and only escaped hanging
through having a smart lawyer, and got off in
about the same way that 'not proven' sets a
man free from a Scotch trial. But the people
where he lived would have nothing to do with
him ; and he stayed among them like an out
law, for he had neither the money nor chance
to run away and could scarcely got a stroke of
work that would earn his daily bread. I was
bead of a small circus then—not such a stun
ning concern as this on hand now , and when
we put up the tent for a single day at C—,
this Bill watched an opportunity to get mo
alone, when no one else would notice him,
and told me his whole story begging me to give
him something to do to keep him from starv
ing or suicide ; and he had such a hunted
down and woe begone look that I could not
help pittying the poor fellow ; and though I
wasn't very able to take another hand just
then, I gave him what change I could spare,
and told him to slip off to the next town and
join us there, so that the rest of my men
shouldn't know anything about Lis history
and chaff him about the past—for they are a
rough lot sometimes and not over particular
about hurting feelings either in sport or spite.
And so he has been along with me ever since.
I have had hold of several ventures besideS
that and this, but make or fall, pay or put off,
Bill has stuck by me through all. There is
real grit as well as use in him, and I have seen
it sharply tried more than once and have never
been sorry I gave him a helping hand in his
need. But it often seems to me, though he
never speaks of it, that he always thinks ho is
serving out his time for that old affair by tak
' tog up the hardest things ho can find to do ;
for I do believe he has on his mind some rude
idea of personal atonement for the blood he
shed. And now you know all I have to tell.
Do not let it speak out of your eyes to him,
even though your tongue ain't likely to let it
slip."
I had no occasion to guard myself thus, for,
now I knew his story, it was plain to me from
his face that Quiet Bill had suffered and I have
always heldthe doctrine that where a sin Is
thoroughly repented of, men should allow to
die out of remembrance that which the good
God forgives; and so, after a silent fashion, he
and I became rather friendly. I talked to him
and made him talk some also about the creat
ures in his charge, and praised him a little
once or twice, and saw the dark blood sweep
up to his brow like a girl's blush; and after
awhile, when he had leisure, he would come
and sit near me when I was sketching, and
take curious but wordless note of my work,
and occasionally suggested to me some slight
points that caused me to wonder at his close
and quick observation. Mr. Kingsley bad al
ways a cheery something to say to him; and
as I look back now lam glad to think that
Bill seemed to take an unusual comfort, as
time went on, out of the distant companion
ship with us two.
The season had been extremely hot, and
August fairly blazed with the dry fierce heat
of a long drouth. It was on one of the scorch
ing, electric, kind of days that make men feel
listless, and beasts restless and wicked to deal
with, that we halted in the suburbs of a grow
ing city, and spread the canvas for an exhibi
tion. The big Bengal tigress bad been un
usually uneasy all the morning; when lying
prone on the floor of the cage, she lashed her
powerful tail , and panted out low ominous
growls as if the bloodthirsty spirit of her lost
liberty was angrily astir, and she would start
up with a sudden bound that shook her prison
and impatiently pace its narrow limits with
yellow eyes all aflame, and snarling lip drawn
over the strong and hungry looking teeth;
and once or twice she rolled herself against
the thick wires, and caught them in her great
claws as If she longed to tear the resting bars
from their secured sockets. Bill kept careful
watch on her antics, and I heard him say to
himself. "There'll be troublowith that vixen."
But the rest of the collection were feverish
and fretful, too, and between furnishing thorn
all with fresh drinks, and throwing water on
some to cool them off, he had quite as much
as he could do before the hour fixed for the
performance, without devoting especial at
tention to any one animal.
There was a crowded audience from far
and near; whole families, from the father down
to the babe in arms, were ranged on the hard
benches to enjoy the acting elephants and
precocious ponies. There was even an ex
traordinary number of children, for a thriving
Sunday school had entered early, and noise
lessly secured nearly all the front seats, and
delighted anticipation shone on rows of chubby
and eager countenances. The peanut' boys
drove a heavy trade, and the venders of mugs
of mead had a very profitable and active time
and all was going on merry as a marriage
boll In the ring and out of It, when I suddenly
became aware that something serious was the
matter, for I saw Bill Blip quickly from behind
the cage of the still fidgettlng tigress, and come
to a stapeaque stand in full front of the emus
ed people who scarcely observed him, amidst
a round of uproarious applause ; but he was
in his shirt sleeves and deadly pale—as well
he might be, having just discovered that the
mighty beast beside him bad, by some unno
ticed frantic effort, so loosened the structure
of her cage that the next wrathful movement
would render it fearfully unsafe. There was
not a minute to be lost in the creature's evi
dently excited condition, further aggravated
by the sounds' of the band and tormenting at
tacks of exasperating flies; and 13111 had rush
ed out to look for Mr. Kingsley among the
audience where he usually sat, and tell him
to dismiss the crowd as rapidly and quietly as
possible, not knowing what instant the nuns
eery power of protection would be past, but
not seeing him nt the moment in his accus
toured place, Bill scarcely hesitated at announ
cing the danger himself; but before his slow
speech could be framed into words that Could
warn, not to severely alarm, it was too late.
The awful animal crouching warily in a
corner of its shattered enclosure, gave one
abrupt vault, and, swift as lightning, amidst
the startled shrieks of the terror-stricken
throng, rushed into the open space before the
encirling seats. For a second it stood still
there, as though dazed by its freedom, while
the struggling mass of scared
, humanlty, with
scarce a regard for life and limb of each other,
fled in frenzied haste and fright. But just as
she had gathered herself tip for her second
spring, our quiet Bill made a simultaneous
leap and landed square on her bristling back,
with his muscular arms clasped tightly around
her cock, and his legs wound around the
lithe and outstretched loins. Dismayed by
this unexpected obstruction, for the space of a
breath 'or two the tigress stood at bay then,
with n horrible roar, rolled over and over in
the ring. We could hear Bill's bones break
beneath her appalling effort it to dislodge him,
for a sudden silence fell upon the selfish crowd
that swayed aside from flight to watch this
shocking contest between undaunted man and
untamed brute. In vain she turned and
twisted, reared and plunged. Bill held fast,
though the blood poured from his mouth, and
blinded the beast's sight—held fast, with the
grip of everlasting fate, till Mr. Kingsley,
snatching a loaded pistol from a trembling
ruffian at his side, who had just threatened
with It some woman in the way of hie escape,
stretched his firm hand, and sent a bullet
straight into the savage creature's brain. One
sharp convulsion of the heavy frame, one final
heaving of the burdened back, and she lay
still at last, ri ith Quiet Bill partly underneath
her crushing weight. Tender hands lifted
him and bore Ida senseless body to the nearest
comfortable place, and more than ono strong
man dropped unshamed tears over the maimed
comrade who had so gallantly sacrificed his
own life for others ; for if not companionable,
Bill had done many a kindly deed for his asso
ciates, In his own, unobstruslve way, that,
when the hour of trial came, the roughest
remembered. Turn by turn we watched by
him, but we knew that nothing more could Le
done for him, in this world ; and even in hi
agony, he was so grateful for the interest man
ifested, that it seemed as if ho wondered that

hear him gasp out, lietwren his throes of an
guish, how good We all were to him.
Butthe end came soon. The doctor told
him, and he heard it calmly, and bore it brave
ly. Mr. Kingsley and I were beside him a
few moments after, when he turnial to the
former, and said, earnestly :
" I think I've it even, sir."
•
"What, Bill?"
" Why, you know, sir, I took a life ; and I
reckon I saved ono,ltho other day, didn't I?"
Mr. Kingsley took both the cold hands In
his own. "Yes,indeed, Bill, and many more,
perhaps, and gave youre, too."
" Then you think it's even ?"
" Yes, Bill, I do."
"And do you believe that He, the Great
Judge who knows all things, will hold It even
too?"
" Yes, Bill, I do think so ; for he is full of
mercy and loving kindness."
" But He is just, too,'? murmured the dying
voica ; " for I heard a preacher once say lie

for the one I slew and I've always been look.
big out for the chance. It was long a comin';
but I got it at last ; and I thank Him forlettin'
me make It even."
Mr. Kingsley was crying like a child. "My
good, old Bill," he said, "I am so sorry to
lose you. You have been a faithful servant,
and I shall miss you more than I can say."
A glad light flashed into the dim eyes, and
in spite of the exquisite pair of every move
ment, he toads one supreme effort, and raised
Mr. Kingsley's hand to his white lips.
" God bless you, sir," ho gasped out, " you
took me when all the rest of the world kicked
me out, and you've never given me a .mean
word. God bless you ; you're all in life I'm
loathe to leave." Then he lay silent for a
while, and we thought ho was asleep, and
would pass away so ; but suddenly he was
looking at us wide awake, end spoke out firm
and clear

And then the peaco of death settled down

ONE MORE STORY OF CHICAGO
" I had made," said a poor seamstress, in
telling me of her condition, "my last pay
ment on Saturday on my supply' of coal for
the winter; and the last dollar I had in the
house bad gone, on that day, to buy my little
store of coffee and sugar and flour, fertile win
ter's use. The fire took it all the next night."
She has no husband to help her, and a young
sister and three little children are dependent
upon her for support; but, like thousands of
others, she had made a good living, and could
lay by for the future, not abundantly, but
sufficient for frugal wants. Still I find her
brave and happy in her new life since the fire.
Her voice has a tremor In it when she tells
how she sent her three children to a neighbor's
for safety when the fire broke out, that she
might be free to try and save something f
her household goods ; how, when her own
house was gone, she went to seek them and
found only aheap of embers where she thought
they were sleeping safely ; how, as she after
ward learned, her little boy of nine years,
taking a brother of seven years in one hand
and a sister Sf five in the other, wandered
from 10 o'clock on Sunday ight till 'lO
o'clock on Monday morning, running 'a
fiery gauntlet, through blazing streets and
frantic crowds of men and horses, never
letting go the little hands he held in his,
never swerving through all those devious,
dangerous ways, the whole circuit of the
city, from his fixed purpose of reaching an un
cle's house, miles away, and giving his preci
ous charges into his mother's hands again—
there is a tremor In her voice when telling of
all this, till she remembers with pride how
brave her boy was in that fearful twelve hours'
walk, while she sought for the baby wander
ers, almost mad with grief, through all that
terrible night, and remembers that they, at
least, are left her still. Then she turns to the
cheerful whir of her sewing machine, and al.
most begrudges the time sho takes to talk of
that past grief. But my neighbor, whose
yearly income before the fire was something
more than a hundred thousand dollars, and
who has only a few hundred thousands left
from the wreck of his property cried about the
streets for days, and wrung his hands In the
sight of men over his ruin. "Thanksgiving I
What have I to be thankful for ?" said a
wealthy lady, last week, on that "little gov

been burned out ; but it was also true that in
their Case it way loss only, and not ruin.—
Letter 0 New York Tribune.
LIKE A WOMAN
I=
" What is she h6c ? A difficult question that
to answer, my dear boy. She's like nothing
on earth except a woman."
" That strikes tne as being a rather vague
account, to render of a person you're going to
stick to for hotter for worse, so long as you do
live." The last speaker both looked and spoke
In an ill-used tone, but he was In the golden
age still, and an expression of dissatisfaction
did not ill become him. The man lie addressed
was sufficiently like him for the fact of the re
lationship that existed between them to be ap
parent. But he was past middle age, and
though lie carried his forty-live years boldly
and well, it was evident that lie and all claims
to youthfulness had shaken hands and parted
company forever.
They were sitting now on the top of a gate
that opened from a turnip field into a planta
tion, with their guns under their arms, and a
setter and brace of pointers at their feet. And
the sentences that open this story were spoken
by them just after the brief announcement
that the elder man had brought himself to
make, that in about six weeks he was going to
be married.
"I am too old to in•lulge in'the luxury of
rhapsodies," he said with a laugh, "but I'll
tell you this, Theo,' am very fond of the girl,
and very well satisfied that you'll approve of
my choice."
"Uncles don't generally submit their choices
in such matters to their nephews' judgments,"
Then Bligh said, recovering his normal ex
pression of benignant indifference to the ma
jority of things as he spoke. " Well, I hope
the lady won't object to my hanging out at
the Chase at uncertain intervals, and—l hope
with all my heart that you'll he happy." And
then the twa men, after the manner of their
kind, developed a greater "degree of callous
ness at once, In order to conceal the genuine
emotion they were feeling.
The cover they were going to shoot was in
the very heart of the Chase property, and the
pointers and the setter, and the property alto
gether, belonged, as may have been surmised,
to the elder Mr. Bligh. It was a rather hard
thing for the somewhat extravagant and ex
tremely impecunious Theo to bear that this
uncle, whose hand had always been open, and
whose eyes had always seemed to regard Theo
as the heir, was going to be married. In a
quiet corner of his own heart the young 'man
did, in the first hour of his surprise and disap
pointment, suffer himself to say that the future
Mrs. Bligh must be a played-out flirt, a woman
eager to secure any chance that Is offered.
"Otherwise she wouldn't have accepted him
after, a three week's acquaintanceship," he ar
gued ; " and if he had picked her up in any
other place than Portsmouth, there would
have been a better atmosphero about the
affair; but I know that those officers' daughters
are always lurking about the corners of the
streets, seeking whom they may devour."
"You will meet her to-night at dinner,"
Mr. Bligh had said to Theo. " She is doming
with her brothers and some friends of theirs'
to see her future home." And in consequence
of this information received Theo Bligh went
home to dinner in rather a dark mood.
But this state of feeling lasted only a short
time, for the young fellow was generous
hearted, and quite capable of seeing the other
side of things when reason strove to show it
to him. As he dressed he came to the con
clusion, quite honestly, and without much
effort, that after all his uncle was only doing
wisely and well in marrying, since ho had
ound a woman he could love. And when he
had come to this conclusion, he found himself
rather eager for the introduction that had
seemed such an odious thing to him in the
morning.
The drawing-room was full when he entered
and his eyes went round in a rapid search for '
the lady who had brought his uncle to bay,
• "flat must be Miss Dundee," he thought, as
he caught sight of a lady who was talking
rather earnestly to Mr. Bligh, " As expected,
she's by way of being an old girl—has seen
the vanity - of most things, especially the vanity
of hesitating, when to hesitate may be to
lose." Then ho went up to the pair, and
asked for "an introduction to Miss Dundee,"
and found himself turned round by the
shoulder by Mr. Bligh, and brought face to
face with a girl whom he had not seen before.
"This is my nephew, Theo. Madge," he
said, looking down Into the girl's face with a
proud, admiring gaze ; and she put out her
hand frankly at once, and Theo took it, and
told himself that here was the real " Bonnie
Dundee," and all that had gone before her
were impostors.
"I think Mr. Bligh has been rather nervous
about introducing me, the interloper, to you," ,
Miss Dundee said, quickly making way for
The, to take a scat on the sofa by her side ;
"he s more than half afraid that you won't
like me, and if you don't it will make him
very unhappy." So she spoke, in a girlish,
alniost childish outspoken way,wlthout seem
to consider or to mark the effect of her words
either on the man she addressed or the by
standers. " I should have known you as Theo
anywhere I'd seen you," she went on ;
",you'll be exactly like Mr. Bligh when
you're—" She paused abruptly and colored
a little, but a moment after she forced' herself
back into composure, and resumed "when
you're as old as he is, I was going to say, but
I remember the young men don't like to be
reminded of their youth, and so I bungled
and blundered. Can-you forgive me ?"
Could he forgive her ? Was the Bonnie
Dundee subtle, or only sweetly simple, that
she asked him this, in that winning'voice of
hers ? And, by the way, how did she, with
her Scotch name, come with that touch of,
accent—that way of softly resting on the vow
els that is a speciality of Irish.women's pro
uunciation of words that they want to caress?
As be asked himself this, he looked -at her
more observantly, and wondered also how she
had come by that face and that expression.
A pen-and-ink portrait of a girl whose glory
is her youth and warmth and color, must like
a photographer, necessarily be lma-d and crude.
But no other can be given here.
She was about twenty-two when Theo Bligh
saw her first—just old enough to know that
she had a mind, but not to be well acquainted
with it herself yet. Quite a girl of the period,
as far as the IVotteau•like picturesqueness of
her costume of deftly mingled blue and pink
went, but innocent of all Grecian bend or
other vulgarities of the like order. With
golden brown hair and eyes—affectionate and
changeful eyes, something like Ike eyes of
"My Last Duchess," who "loved whate'er
she looked on, and whose looks went every
;where," I should imagine. Firm and erect
in figure, fluctuating in movement, as most
women with caressing manners are ; possessed
of beautifnl hands and fee:, of which she was
daintily fond, with an openly displayed
fondness that was infinitely amusing to men,
and infinitely wearisome to women, who had
not the same objects of affection ; able to to
vest her attitudes of listening with an air of
interest and comprehension, that was not al
ways altogether genuine, perhaps. Bright In
heart and in mind, able and adaptable, the
sort of woman to be easily molded, and whose
fate would bo grand or ghastly just as It pleas
ed the first man who really thrilled her to will
it. This was what Theo Bligh saw when ho
looked at the lady whom he had 'already reg
istered "Bonnie Dundee."
How had she come by it all ? 110 w had she
comp by the winning grace, by the Irish eyes
and suspicion of accent, and by the southern
warmth and splendor that environed her? Ho
must have put his curiosity into form in some
way, for before the evening was over the girl
found herself explaining to him that although
Scotch by name, there was but little Scottish
blood in her veins. "My faither was half
Spanish, and my mother was wholly Irish,
and so I can make no claim to being very pure
in race ; if I am anything,it's a thoroughbred
mongrel." And then she lapsed from that
subject into one that was naturally more in
teresting to her—the Blighs, namely and
whence they sprang, and whom they had
married, and in what way they had distin
guished themselves in the days gone by.
Undesignedly and almost unconsciously,
there came about a certain degree of intimacy
between these young people, even on this the
tlret night of their meeting—an intimacy about
which there was that indefinable something
which can not be put into a word-photograph,
but which nevertheless strikes the observant,
and the malicioits, and the interested, as being
rather more than kind, and entirely unneces
vary.
Now Mr. Bligh, the betrothed of Miss Dun
dee, the owner of the Chase, and the uncle of
the other innocent offender, was neither ma
licious nor observant by nature,but he was in
terested just now through stress of circum•
stances. It would have hurt him if Thou had'
maintained that air of suppressed unhappiness
which had marked his demeanor on the morn
ing when he - first 'heard of the approaching
wedding. For Mr. high was blessed with one
of those dispositions through which was a
colossal vein of desire to set all crooked mat
ters straight. It would hays been a fltw •in
the scheme of benevolence if Theo had not
come to an amicable conclusion concerning
the case. But still Madge ought not to have
been so entirely oblivious of their relative po
sitions as she appeared to b 3 while she was
teaching Theo a new and ingenious mode of
playinecat's-cradle, a pastime which Theo
found to be exhilarating for the first time.
" Young blood will have It's course, lad,
And every dog his day."
This couplet forced itself upon Mr. Bligh's
memory as he looked at the pair whom he had
brought together, and whose good-will he had
bespoken for one another beforehand. The
good, true, honest gentleman had no feeling of
small jealousy, no petty distrust of the pretty
creature who had listened to his offer with
bright•eyed surprise, and accepted with a
bright burst of gratitude. But though he felt
l no jealousy, and no distrust, he did feel con
siderable fear lest the uniniated should mis
construe that out 'spoken, well-developed flat
tery of voice and look and manner of which
his nephew was the object just now. " It's
only her way,"he told himselyand bless her
wasn't it for that I loved her at first, before I
knew how good she was ?" But though he
reminded himself of this truth, the remem
brance of It brought him small comfort, and
he glanced at Madge uneasily, and his uneasy
glances were seen by the very friend before
whom he desired her to shine as a bright par
ticular star.
Miss Dundee—or " Bonnie" Dundee, as she
soon came to be called in the Bligh's set by
those who were very keen on every mark of
admiration that Theo Bligh bestowed upon
her— was the central object in the neighbor
hood for a week or two after this. The oblig
ing, acquiescing friends with whom she was
staying pressed her to remain, and though this
hardly accorded with Mr. Bligh's ideas of de
corum, he uttered no protest against the plan
when she agreed to it. And so with all the
flush and glory of her engagement, and her
brilliant prospects and more brilliant beauty
upon her, she was brought very much in con
tact with Theo Bligh, and he saw that elm
was fair.
She was not amere Insatiable coquette. she
was not a heartless fool, ready and willing to
play fast and loose for the sake of gaining a
little notoriety ; but she was that even more
dangerous thing, a woman afflicted with that
passion for pleasing that It became a fine art
in her hands, and when she was following it
she could not stop to count the cost of failure
or success. It was a new sensation to her to
have the right to such attentions, and admira
tion and love as Mr. Bligh lavished upon her
and as Theo offered at a respsetful distance,
on the score of being. his uncle's nephew. It
was a new sensation to her, and she. enjoyed
it to the full ; reveling in it as one does in sun.
beams after a long frost, or in dainty viands
after a long fast. The idea of its being wrong
or reprehensible in any way to gather these
roses of love and youth and pleasure, that were
blooming in her path, never entered her mind.
She was only Intensely fond of the excitement
of being put upon a pedestal, and being only
Worshipped in the sight of all men.
Given such a nature as this from the birth,
and arc we justified In judging harshly of and
condemning the deeds it dictates ? The girl
was not obeying her instincts when she turn
ed her flower-like face gladly toward anyone
who seemed as a sun to her. And Theo, with
all that fine, tawny beauty of his, did seem
very like a sun to the girl. " Bright, and
warm, and genial," she called him, speaking
of him quite openly and frankly to his uncle.
whose heart was begtatng to misgive him.
Miss Dundee was on the edge of a precipice,
and was totally unconscious of the fact.
There came a day when It was revealed to
her suddenly, so suddenly that it made her
dizzy, and then she behaved like a woman.
Wean know when people want to be to
gether, and have no special end or aim that
may be shouted aloud in the market place for
being so, how they devise and invent motives,
and exhaust and wrap opportunities. 'rho
country . Is a capital stage whereon to develop
the little plots. And so in this case every ruin
in the vicinity was dragged In to assist In the
denouncement, and every point of view from
whence anything could possibly be seen was
called upon to contribute to tho furtherance of
the lover's stratagems.
All this (line while the excursions were go
ing on, to "look at" something or other that
not one of them ever saw, the uncle and neph
ew were in the house together, and I am sorry
to have to record that It was not the guilty
one that suffered most. The elder man was
profoundly and justifiably unhappy, because
he feared that the two people he loved best in
the world might deal him the hardest blow a
man can have
.dealt to him. The younger
man was excitedly and fitfully unhappy truly,
but then he had hours of such compensating
bliss.
For instance, his consciehee did not tell him
that there was anything actually dishonorable
in his riding along Mudge's side through the
autumn woods and lanes; nor did it prick him
for sympathetically indorsing her views of
things or for keeping the conversation gener
ally in those channels wherein her words end
Ideas ran most freely. Still, though his con
science left him unscathed for these derelic
tions from the paths of perfect prudence,there
were hours in the watches of the night when
the young man suffered to the full as actually
as did the elder one. Hours when he painted
vivid pictures of the time when lie should he
away from the Chase and its inhabitants,
and when Bonnie Dundee would be ruling
there the lady of the land, "Bonnie Dundee"
no longer, but his uncle's wife ;
hours when
he comprehended for the first time in 1118 life
the fullness of the truth that one can not play
with fire without being burnt; hours when lie
reproached himself bitterly for having so tri
fled with his own peace and wall-being as to
have played on in the vain hope of his reason
and Judgment killing his passion; hours when
he realized how absolutely empty his life
would be when this girl for whom his. heart
was sick should be another man's -.wife, and
that man his own generous, trusting uncle.

It never occurred to the young man to think
Viet Mr. Bligh suspected anything of this. As
I have said, Theo's conscience had. him en
tirely guiltless of there being aught in
manner that could Indicate It. Nor did he
do the girl the• injustice of supposing that she

say to himself moodily; "and like a fool I'm
ready to Meg mine there, only I eon never
do it."
De had firm faith in his power of self-corn l
mand. It - was his honest intention just to
gather a few more roses while ho might, and
then go away, having made no sign. "But
the Chase can never be a home to me again;
I'm banished far more effectually by my love
for her than 1 could have been WI. had hated
her," This he told himself one day as ho was
riding along with them on the very last excur
sion in which he meant to permit himself to
indulge in their company.
Bonnie Dundee was in great force that morn
ing. A pretty woman on a handsome spirited
horse, which she feels perfectly capable of
managing and escorted by a couple of men of
whose admiration Pho feels herself to bo sever e
is sure to b 0 at her best. She seemed such a
cloudless creature as she rode along, disturb
ing her attentions with that subtile Impartiali
ty with which a well-bred woman, a and well
bred ono alone, can keep two men enthralled
at the same time, that gloom obtained in Thoo's
soul. It was bitterly hard to feel that She
could be so carelessly happy, when all that
was before him was so blank and barren.
Presently his uncle said something that
caused him to gather himself together, and
sent all the bleed coursing through his veins
in a way that betrayed itself in Isis face.
"Theo has been talking this morning of
leaving us soon ; before ho goes, dear, we
must let him know what day ho is to come
back and hail you as an aunt." It cost Mr.
Bligh more than a slight effort to make this
speech with apparent ease. But he succeeded
in doing so, and only ho himself suspected the
pain his own words gave him.
" Going ! Theo going I" she exclaimed laps
ing from fun Into surprise and solemnity in a
moment, and laying her whip with a frank ca
ressing gesture on Theo's arm as she spoke,
" 0:1, don't think of going, Theo ; I can't
spare you—we can't spare him, can we?'"
