LOVE IN A COFFIN.
" YSTS'I Oh, Rex, how good
Yok-are,! - Such 'beauties, too !
Bevel' my life had
.so lovely a gift."
Nora.Vansittart was holding the love
ly, purplish-yiolet gems beside her own
pale, perfect beauty.
Her husband .watched her smilingly.
He had looked forward to this hour for
a longtime. ,
If Norah had a , weakness, it" was for
amethysts, and these were the genuine
Oriental gems, transparent as water, and
flashing with that vioiet blue light so
dear to the heait of the connoisseur.
"Never mind, sir," she ran on with,
4 tender gayety, "wait and see if I don't
surplise you as mtichi - as .you have sur
prised:me."
Little, did either think how prophetic
the 'careless words were destined to prove.
* * * *
_*
"The face of 'a young goddess, eyes like
a thirst of sunshine," foim like a Grecian
'statue. That woman looks too proud to
flirt," said Thomas .Dent, as Nora Van
nittait's violet robe' and purple amethysts,
• flashed by. him.
."Handsome, isn't she ?" said Felix
Travers.. "Dresses well, too. But then
she got that of her mother ; she was an .
actress, you know. But with her beau
ty, I would , not like. to Rex Vansitt
art.

"Because, knowing a that. I do, and
with, Rex's jealous temper at back; I
should have a murder _on my hands,.l
am afraid. If he, ever does find her out
there'll be. trciuble.".
"Travers." • - -
Felix started- Tiolently:! . ,
It was Rex Vansittares voice. :,
"Great Heavens I What if he hasover
heard me," be , thought. , _
to "I've got 'something ART you," said
Rex. • ' "
And as Travers sauntered out to where
Vansittart was lounging against the bal
cony railing; he decided that his friend
had been too far away to have heard his
unlucky speech.
The nexenioment - be .read his mistake
in Rex's ashen face and gleaming eyes,
but he affected unconsciousness.
"Something to show me," he question
ed, lightly." What is it—the moon ?"
Rex was , breathing 'heavily wheil he
spoke, after's moment's pause, it was in
a constrained, husky voice :
"What were you saying just now about
my wife?" ,
'Your wife ?" -
"Theard you, Travers—l-heard enough,
at any Tate—and I called' you out here
for the,rest. What do you mean by your
inginuations?" he continued, setting his
teeth' hard, as Travers hesitated. "I'm
just in the humor to hear them, and
cram them down your throat afterwards,"
he added to himself.
"I was only jesting," stammered Tra
vers,
hear the jest," said
mayßex,.fierce
,"Yon take :your ,choice of tell
/144ns what you mean, and proving it,
or of fighting me with Out." •
Traver 4 turned pale. He was a 'horri
ble coward—a man.-ihat Rex . Vansittart
despised too much ,to -listen to in cool
mouzintj - 'lTora had refused him when
she was ,siora - Oonvers. Perhaps, that
was the '.'seeret of his bitterness towards
her. -
011" a nothing," ke,said,;"not worth re,

with you. People -- little - about
Mrs. Vansittart „.and, Jr.avana. Of

"Of course," 'Sneered - Rex, hie fees 'be

.
"Well, von know they always liked
each 'other;" Travere said, with an air of
charming cander, "ththigh riebody,tho't
there was anything . between_ them before
you Were naarried. But now, - -you see, it
is different. Married women can't be
thick_ with gentlemen without people
-calling it flirting."
"What do you mean by .. thick?" 'de
manded Rei,- in a smothered Tome.
speaking So low that Travers was deceiv
ed by his seeming calmness, and went on
carelessly : .
"Oh, being together "often, having him
at the -house every day, riding out to
gether, and so on. Mrs. Vansittart would
have - been very lonely during your ab
sence if - it had not been for Percy Kay
aria." , • •
"Confound him I" muttered Rex. "Nora
knows how I hate him. Can you prove
what you , say ?" he aslred,, turning stern
ly upon Travers.'
"Oh ! prove?" said Travers, with a '
shrug of his high shoulders. "It is not
'Serious enough for that. But ask - any.-
body-your own sister, for - that. She
stayed with Mrs. Vansittart all the time
that you were gone." ,
Lucy Vansittart was dancing in the,
room beyocd at that very moment. He
went to the ovindow and called her dur
ing a pause in the dance, -
Travers watched him , with 'an un
pleasant. smile..
"Lucy," said Rex, "how often was
Percy Kavana at the house while I was
up in London ?"
Lucy looked frightened.
"How can I tell ?", she- said pettishly.
"I suppose Nora has a right _to receive
whom she chooses."
"That is not the question ; was he there
often ?"
'Lucy hesitated.
"What do you call often ?" '
"Was he there every day ?" -
"Oh dear, no; not more than five or
six times in the week."
' "Humph! said . Rex, turning away.
Lucy looked after him anxiously,
"What a fool I was to say that; and
there's Felix Travers. 'Of course he told
him." .
Nora Vansittart wondered a little at
her husband's silence as they rode home
that evening. • . •
But Lucy, in her terror lest something
should be said about Silvana; talked in
cessantly. -
She had tried in vaiu.to find her sister
iniaw in the crowded rooms, so as to
warn her before they started, of what
Rex had discovered, and ,now there was
no change.
"however, Nora will know better what
to say than I should," she thotight.
Rex never spoke till he was alone with
his wife in her dressing room.
Nora had told her maid,not to wait for
her, and she slowly undid her purplish
black braids herself. -
• She watched her husband furtively.
"He's heard something, and he's_Jeal
ohs. He looks too black, to be easily
mollified," sue thought, wondering what
she could say in the absense of that ex
planation which she knew she could not
give him. • ' •
"You've' been fooling with Percy Kay
aria againi" Rex said at last,his lips white,
his eyes flames, 'I told you what to ex-
Peet if you ever , did
..that. Perhaps you
thought I did not mean it."
Nora threw back her hair; her betted
ful face•turning stony all at once.-
She would, :note. have explained new,
while he spoke in that voice. if, she had
been at liberty to do so.
Anger froze her, where it burned him.
"On the ccontrary,"she resumed, con
temptuously ; "you said you would never
forgive me aslong as you lived. Has my
hour come ?"
While she spoke she undid the ame
thysts on her white throat, and put them
in - their satin case with steady hands.
Her calmness drove Rex more: mad
than. he was before.
"Oh, what a fool I have, been, he said
bitterly, "I was warned againtit you—
everybody warned me—but I would not
listen, and I've got my, pay. You don't
fool with Kanava any_ more under pay
roof. Go •to . your lover, unp rincipled
daughter of a Nile mother--",' • .
A cry of 'horror 'broke from Nors'e
lipi as she turned and confronted him.
"Be still," she said, "that is quite
enough' to make: me' hate you the rest. of
my life. We are done with each other
from this hour.; Leave me." ,
Rex shrank a little at the effect of his
brutal - words.
But he was too nearly insane with rage
to recall theni.: ,
"I. will leave you," he - said savagely ;
"don't let me find you here when I come
back." .
He Went out, demi:nil% the door after
him.
Nora sat listening' and growintharder
every moment. •
Lucy Vanifittart had. waited up to hear
the result. . -
She' ran to ‘ her sister-in-law's room now,
wild with anxiety,
.
"Oh, Nora,, what did he say," cried she.
"He said' words that I shall never for
give him tor. What ,he said 'of Ine ; 'l
might, but of her--never."
"Did you- tell him all ?"" wailed LitioY,
in. agony.
"I told him nothing," said Nora stern
ly: "I should not:: have s aid

,not ask me to. tell him. He 'Eate.me no

Rex Vansittart made. his appearance
at his' own house the next day about
noon.
elle had spent the night , it his club,
and came home enough cal med and
ashamed to be willing to ask now the
explanation he':was in , too great a rage to
seek the night before. -
1:14 was startled ,rather rudely out of
bis,calmness to , find :that his wife had
taken him at his cruel word and gone.
But he tried to brave it out. .
"She'll come back," he' said; "she won't
go far."
"She won't, Rex," said his sister ; "she,
never. Will, . She told- me to tell you you
should never look upon her living face
again this world, if you let her, Rex.
Go after her, brother." 'Beg her to come
back ti I shall die, for it is all my fault.'!
"I shan't go after her,", said Rex, sul
lenly. "kdare say - she has gone to Say
an& -
"Oh, Rex, hOw can you ?"
'How could she ? She knew _how I
hated' him, and she had hint. here con•
latently while II was . gone. The whole
town is laughing at me, and 'gossiping
about her.
"Oh, no, no, Rex—dear Rex ;
tell you—l must tell now. Percy Ka
yana came to eee me; We were married
secretly three, months *ago. We were
trying to keep it a secret till he is of gage,
because of 'his, guardian and some trouble
.about his property, and I knew you would
not like it, being a secret marriage.,Be
sides, you had always hated , poor ercy
so."
Rex Varisittart looked as if he were go
ingto faint.
"Did Nora know ?" he asked.
"Yes. That is why she let him come.
You were to be told everything in anoth
er month. We thought you would not
hear of Percy's coming."
Rex groaned.
"I only hated him because I was jeal
ous of Nora's liking for "him. And it
was all for you. I hope Heaven will
punish ,ine as I deserve. Did she tell
you what I said to her ?"
"She said you had "told her to leave
your house." -;
"I did, madniati that I was. I said
worse than that; too. I slandered her
dead mother, and I don't deserve either
her forgiveness or Heaven's for my bra
tali ty:
‘4O after her, Rex,'and make her come
back." • -
"I will go - after her,
but I know before
hand that it .will be fruitless. She will
keep her word: She will never let me
look upon her. face - again. She is capa
ble of destroying herself rather than
break her wora. I deserve to lose , her
and I have lost her."
* * *
!Three years passed: . '
Rex Vansittart has spent them in seek
ing for his last wife; journeying contin
many, following the faintest. clue un- •
-weariedly, but never coming upOn even a
tifice of her that he‘was sure of.
He had never known an hour's peace
since he had lost her.
.Sorrow,
.remorse and anxiety had alter
ed him fearfully in that time.
He bad - grown haggard and prema-;
turely old. .
He was at home for the:first time since
lsiOra"B flight had left that hothe desolate.'
He Was here by accident only, :.detained
by some buginess matters pertaining to

Lucy and her hushand Tercy. Kavana:
had long ,since publicly teknowledged
their marriage, and were very ' . happy,
with but the one cloud—the ,mystery of
Nora's fate. •
It was horrible suffering for Rex'Van
sittart to be here alone in- the- home to
which he bad brought his wife so long ,
ago, and from which his cruelty had
driven her.-
But worse was to come.
. 1 4
He had not even &servant in the house
with him,: and so, when the long unused
door-bell clanged ,unexpectedih he went
and opened-the door , himself.
"A package for. i'on, sir," said a man
who stood there; "Shall we bring it in
here ?" •
"For me ? .What ? lam not expect. -
ing anythin,g,". said, Rex, wondering why
the man: looked at him so oddly. , •
"It's addreseed to, you," said the man.
"Are you sure you are not expecting any
thing—any news from any one who is
sick, or dead ?"
He dropped hid voice:. •. ,

He had found hie wife at last. •
He remembered her words. *, ' -
"NeVer again shall he, look upon my

Involuntarily the -men .drew near to

He was, unconscious of them, and nev

More beautiful, if possible, than .in
life, she lay there, and upon .her marble
throat glittered the pure amethysts he
had given her.
That she had suffered, too, the'silver
threads among the silky locks, attested.
But suffering bad only chiseled her
ChiSsical features to a purer loveliness.
She might have been. sleeping and

fully she looked, so sweet and forgiving
was the expression of the white face. •
"She doesn't look as if shef was dead,"
muttered one oti the men. !I
Nobody noticed him, and *he mea t
nothing by it himself. But the loner
he looked, the stranger the ad wom n
looked to him, and suddenl y without\a
word to any one, be slipped out and went
to the nearest medical man hecould find.
He charmed to be one high in the ranks
of that brotherhood, and one who, curi
ously enough, had made" a special study
of the • various 'strange phenomena of
suspended animation. .He knew Rex
Vansittart, moreover, and his unhappy
story. ,
. -
Rex never noticed him till he, put his
hand On the seemingly . dead woman's
marble face. . Then he looked pp.
."Don't," he said. - • *
"Mr. Van sittart," said the - doctor, slow
ly, afraid of , the possible effect of ' his
words upon tha t overwrought mind,
"your wife *doesn't look to me ass
,if she
was dead." .
-
"Rex looked up,and.a visible trembling
ran throup,h him. ,

sician went on, "that this. is only a wOn
'derfal trance. If there are any women
in 'the bailie, call - them
l and have abed

send for your sister, too." ,
Rex only stared, with the perspiration
coming out in great drops - on his white
face, till the doctor reached for his hand,
and, drew. it against Nera's pearly cheek.
,The cheek was warm. ' . ' , : -
"Oh, doctor 1" cried poor Rei , _ "it
can't be true, can it ?" •, ,- -
Of the men, one ran for Lin Kama,
another, brought his wife •who was an ex

Nora Vansittart AveS not dead, but in a
trance. But 'she -wonldl-Probably have'
been buried alive had it not been for the
longing - which had seized her when she
supposed herself dying, to have her bedy ,
sent to her . husband. , •
She had-' made those ;b out ler pro
mise to comply with 'her wish. '
But it was weeks,before they dared tell
her where she was, 'or permit her hail
band to see her. ,
"We were both -wicked—l .as•mtich as
you," she said, when Rex - came at last
with an entreaty for forgiveness of the
past. "Heaven has - - ptinished us- and
forgiven us. Let us forgive each other."

Happy again in each other's love, and
forgetting and forgivine the bitter past,
Res and Nora after awhile mingled in
society, Rex never deserting the aide of
thewoman 4 who was now dearer to him
than ,his life. , - -
It was one beautiful starlight night
when, oppressed with- the - warmth,of 030
very room in which Rex had overh eard
the' conversation that fired 'palette
brain almost to madness; Iransittert led
his wife down into the cool garden, and
towards a little vine-covered arbor.
As they were *about to entei the lat
liced bowers, Travers approached them.
"What, Yaneittart I" he Cried, "once
more reconciled? Permit me. to con*
