But here a ring resounded through
the little house, and n moment Inter

the elder Indy sit up lu amazement,
nnd exclnlm:
"Gracious, child! what brings you
here such a day?"
"You niny well wonder, aunt; but
after wlmt has happened I could not

would have me for a few weeks. My

compelled to break off my engagement
to Terry, nnd have written this morn
ing to tell lilni we must never meet
again!"
This speech, uttered with feverish
spirit, as Doris Druinmond dragged oft
her gloves nnd threw them on the ta
ble In a ball, was na a bombshell In
the quiet room.
"Broken your encasement!" ojnculat
cd Miss Hudson, dropping her knitting.
' Nonsense! There must be some mis
take. The girl sbonk her bend as she pneed
the room Impntlenily.
"I hnd better tell you all about it,
nnd then the subject can drop," she
cried. "Terry bns been very busy

then she added with withering scorn,
'Busy. Indeed!"
'Humph!"
"What do you mean by 'humph In

doubtfully, "Surely you agree with
me?"
"My love, there are two sides to
everything. 1 should like to hear Ter

"Why, he has not got one" very
blankly. "I saw myself "
Miss Hudson picked up her knitting.
She had always been pin In and angu
lar. No romnucc hnd ever touched her
life save through her sister' only
child-sweet, spoiled Doris. Then she
bad thought so much of Dr. Oliver, too.
Ho was considerably older than her
niece. They bad seemed exactly suited
to each other and no dissension hnd
ruffled their bnrmony hitherto. It ap
peared Inexplicable, until she recalled
bow foolish her poor, denr sister Lizzie
was; bow likely to fan her daughter's
resentment Into a flame. In sheer
thoughtlessness.
"The least snld tho soonest mended,"
the wisely reflected, stroking her dar
ling' sunny little head. "There is tho
other side; that I maintain."
Perhaps Dorl dimly realized this,
for ere they retired to rest she re
marked that, with all his fault, Terry
was good to every one.
"Doubtless; no one is altogether
bad," Miss Houston replied In a tone
of disparagement, making n wry face
to conrenl a smile. "But ns you have
lost all conlldenee In him, there is no
more to be snld."
"No, not a word," responded her
niece, with unnecessary fervor.
When Miss Hudson looked out of her
window the following morulug it was
fair and sunny, uud Doris was flitting
about among the roses In the garden
below. Then, ns she stood absently
watching her, the gate clicked, null
Terence Oliver's tall form came down
the pathway. The window was wide
open, and they were so near thnt she
could not help henrlng. He spoke first.
"You wrote this?" holding out a note.
"Y-cs. I simply related the truth.
You cannot explain "
"Explnlu! I shall not try yet. Will
you take bad; every word In this
note?"
"Now she will Are up; now there will
be a scene!" murmured the wicked
old eavesdropper, excitedly. "How
pretty the poor pet looks! yet somehow
I would trust him. Holgb-bo! what it
1 to be young!" ,
Could she believe her ear? So far
from the expected torrent of words,
Dorl bad only turned to the rose
bushes, as If she could not oear Terry'
straightforward eye, and muttered,
balf audibly:
"But Terry; I could not. jlbg
Helen "
"Oh, j-ei, you could, and will," ht
answered gpntly. "Yon will bclleva
me against all theworld; you will be
lieve me through good nnd evil, as f
will you. I know you better than you
do yourself, you see."
She moved uneasily, nnd hid het
face In her bands; then suddenly raised
It, smiling through her tears, like one
of her aunt' rosea washed In dew.
"Yon do. Terry, and I will; Indeed,
I will!" she cried, enrnestly.
The listener did not wait to heat
more-, but fastened on her enp with
trembling fingers nnd dim eyes, nnd
hurried downstnlra to order every good
thlnjr thnt she could devise for brenk
fnst before going out to summon her
visitors.
"I have been telling Doris of the
death of my old friend, Hugh I.e
gnrde," Terry said, gravely, as they
walked to the door. "Poor fellow! be
was hurt In nn accident two days ago,
nnd I bnve been with him dny and
night since. The family are In terri

"He died late Inst night, nnd when
Terry returned home he found my

she slipped round to her aunt's side to
whisper, "Ah! I see there Is the othe"

"When nil other methods of control
