They ceased to speak of him after a while, as people do after a long absent friend, and by degrees it seemed as if.be was only remembered in one poor woman's heart who almost came to think of him as if he had been removed by death, So that one day ?dilly came back from .the gollies, and said as she untied her bat and threw it down, Iles ter guess • who do you thin iCcame to the Ironies last night T' Not even my thoughts suggested the right norm. .

And after this it happened that Milly either. went or was sent for, nearly Svery day up to the Hollies—where,'indeed, she was very much in the habit of going ; while I, who-bad long ago ceased'to 'rate for any companionship. beside my sister's, sat at home, longing with a feverish long ing to see Mark Sutherland one more, and yet dreading with a sickening dread to meet the careless 'estranged glance of the dark eyes that had looked once into mine, full of love. It seemed that Mark not unfrequently' accompanied Milly part of the way home; but he never came - near enough to our cottage for me to-catch even the most dis tant glimpse of him. and my little sister had some howceased to talk of him after the first. So, although I stillknew be staid at the Hollies, he nhightielmost as well hate been across the wide ocean as far as' I was concerned. And yet—oh, tol the sense of his presence seemed borne to me upon every breath of the sweet summer air that floated into tap room; I could not sleep at night nor rest calmly by day; and often, while Milly sat with her friends, I used to wander out, scarce heeding where •I went, impatient only of rest. , One day, when this terAble _yearning was on cie,-.1 - sooirmy sketching materials, - from force of habit, and set out for a walk to a pretty wood at some distance. The cool, green fragrance of the leafy shadows was grateful after the glaring -sunshine, and I sat down to rest where they felt coolest. But a sudden sound of laughter and merry voices close at hand startled me, and, not willing to see vrhd the speak ers were, I got up and fled swiftly down the darkest and most tangled of the paths that branched sway into the heart of the wood. I soon left the merry voices far be• bind me. and, slackening my *elk. I wandered on. dreamy and as Absorbed as ever, till suddenly turning rota another patio, I saw what caused me to stand still ant) forget everything but whet my eves looked upon. Mark Sutherland 1 Yes, Mark older. darker, thinner, but .lif..irk himself. Alt, bow the green marshes end the winding see-wall and the lark singing far up ,in the. sky, 'all floated before. my eyes, as I taw the downward bend of his stately head to look into the face beside him—the face that looked np into his, with'those.candid . blue eves, and a smile upon,the soft parted lips. The smile stem ed to reflect itself. upon Mark'sgrave face for an 'instant and then be took up the ,little hand lying on his arm •and kissed it tonderly. I looked' no longer.; I crept away ; stricken with a dumb anguish dreadful sullen despair, - I crept away and went home. For I knew the candid blue, eyes, the sweet smile and the floating golden hair ;• they were my sister Idillyts. Oh, had I not done enough ? Had I not sacrificed enough f . Was my cup' not v so full that this bitter drop must be added to its overflow. • 'So I cried in my anguish, and it was long before better thoughts- came to me. or that coming. I could hold them firmly and, take comfort. But by-and.hy I rose. from where I had laid myself down, and sat by the window to look for 31illy. She came alonO presently in the quiet eveni ng light, and I looked at her with my eyes strangely opened. I had never yet ceased to think of her as a child : I realivd in one moment how that child was a woman:.
