a tempest of sobs '
" We all wish you to be happy,
Ella," said Mrs Bodine, soothingly.
" Yes, in your own way," she
replied; brokenly. " What hapPen-

sidered first. If love is sweet to

" You must not imagine,Ella

how I hate, hate I There is nothing
so hateful as hate."
" But, Ella, you dou't consider

" There is no need of considering
all, cousin Sophy. There are some
things whichstand out so deafly
that all else is insignificant: Mr
Houghton hates papa and me. Does
papa love him or his son ? You
know me, faulty, foolish little girl
that I am ; but think of that man
raging at his son because he dared
to love me ! If George had emu -
witted a crime his father would
have spent a fortune in defending
him. To love me was worse than a
crime. He would have been tu;ned
into the streets. Oh, it's all so tin-
iest, it's all the spawn of hate !"
Mrs Bodine was aghast at the
intensity of the girl's feeling, but
could only say, " Well, Ella dear,
since things art' as they are, you
must tight it out. Trust the ex-
perience of an old woman. Mar-
riages in the face of such bitter op-
position are rat ely happy."._
" Yes, the bitterness melt ' be

know, I must fight. it out, if it takes
my lifetime, and all the while know
that God would bless our love if

tle,Oige Houghton took to the
mountain solitudes a better and per

and the fascinations of a woman

his father. With a large charity
lie tried to forget the stern words
which had sorely wounded him, and
only to remember the influences on
his father's life which had led to
their utterance: lie recalled the
nadent proofs of his kindness and
'liberality; and, now that his young
dream was over, lie purposed to car-

The old man looked at hint keen-
ly when he returned, seeing that
the young face had grownolder by
years, and that there was steadiness
of purpose and resolution in every
bronzed line.
"It's all right, father," George re-
plied to the toiestioning glance..
"I've come beck to catty out your
