Mies Letitia Varehain had money', and she was good and affectionate. Michael had, acknowledged all this, but he had been perverse enough to add that Dorothy's paragon was two years older than he was, and he also saw that she was very plain and dull. While Dorothy superintended the packing ot her boxes, she was scornfully thinking over this perversity of Michael's. - "It. is strange," she said ; "he is fastidious enough in some things, and yet • in a matter that surely is of the utmost importance to his future happiness he seems determined to take everything on trust, I begin to think that love not only blinds a man, but also takes away his wits." She felt nearly sure that Michael's offer had been accepted by Miss Bryant; he had looked so happy when he came in to wish her good -morning, for she often breakfasted in her room. He had been troubled when she said she was so soon leaving him, but he had not pressed her to stay; he felt that it would be a trial to her to be put in the second place, and it was possible that at first she and Ruth might not suit one another. "You will come back to us later," he said, smiling as he left her room ; but in truth he was too much excited to dwell on the parting, for he had reueived Ruth's answer to his proposal, and he was going to Appledore this afternoon as soon as he could get away from business. And though Dorothy yearned to spend every hour of these last days with her brother, her good sense warned her that he and she were far more likely to maintain you not send your parcels ? We can 'follow more slowly'," "Very well," she said in a subdued voice that Was quite foreign to her bright saucy manner, He thought this dutiful, submis- siveness was very sweet; but while Ruth was telling Faith and the boy to hurry home, and while she etood aside to let them pass, Michael was wishing the old manner would come back. The saucy, provoking Ruth was the girl who had, won his love years ago; this quiet; subdued young lady was quite another person. He fele piqued to try and provoke at any rate a saucy an- "r4r1. have to thank you very much," he said, for your most kind answer to my hopes, I know," he went on with increae- ing fervor, for as he looked at Ruth and realized the prize he had. Won his manner beearne more and more earnest, "I know, and I deeply feel, that I am unworthy of you; but if you will let me, dear girl, I think I can make you happy." He paused, but she walked on beside him in silence, her eyes fixed on the ground; she was evidently listening to him, and he felt encouraged to go on with most unusual eloquence. I have loved you for so long dearest Ruth." His voice had sunk to a low, ten- der tone that puzzled. his companion; she had not guessed at this depth of feeling in a business man like Michael Clifford, and it troubled her; it seemed a mere mockery of the love she knew BO Well, but at the same time it warned her that her life with this husband would be more diffioult than she had counted on, "It sometimes seems as if I could not remember a time when I did not love you, Ruth." She felt obliged to make some answer, and she murmured that she was grateful to him for his devotion; she raised her eyes as she said this; met so much ardor expres- sed in his that she instantly looked away lest she should betray the shrinking she felt from him. His mood had changed; he felt rashly determined to find out her feelings towards him. "I should have preferred to wait," he said, "till I could have a snore deckled hope that you -you cared for me ; but when I consulted your father he urged me not to delay; he seemed to think I had lost time already. I know this sounds cowardly, as if I were trying to shelter myself; well, dear girl," he went on, a passion of tender- ness in his voice, "I own that I am a coward about vexing or thwarting you. their old tender relations if they kept apart Your kind answer was a great relief, for it as much as possible during the time that showed me that I had not vexed you. was left, have told my dear old friend that I leave "I am simply horrid, " she thought. you to settle the length of our engazemene, "I pray against spitefulness and all its nasty (he paused, but she listened qnietly, with - mean ways, and yet directly I see Michael I out raising her eyes) ; "I think you will long to make him think less well of the girl, agree with me that it will be better if pos- If I could only believe she loved him, per. sible so to arrange that your father will haps I ehould be better; and yet even then only have one removal; I mean had he not I cfon' t know that I should feel reconciled, better go straight from Appledore to Broad Yes, I am horrid, and all my life I have Street ?'' gone on fancying I despised jealous people."

She wedded, and then without further leave.to.liing she vaulted over the stile and Was speeding across the meadow with long gliding steps, before he had recovered:from his surprise at this sudden desertion. He stood looking after her, ready to gnash hN teeth with anger at his own stupidity. He told himself he ought to have spoken out when she gave him such a chance he ought to have told her that he was not willing to take her for his wife on sueb. terms. He might have said he was willing to wait any time she chose to name for the joy of calling her his wife, if she could bring herself to feel more tenderly toward him, but that he could not mare), a woman who was only willing to take him from a feeling of grati- tude. While he stood debating with himself whether he should follow her and tell her he retracted his offer, Ruth passed out of sight; and by some strange magic, now that he could no longer see her in actual presence, the remembrance of her beauty, of all that made her to him so irresistible, so bewitching, seized him with renewed strength. He began to chide himself for faint-heartedness. She must think him a timid fool ; he had not even held her hand in his, he had not attempted the slightest approach to a caress. No true woman would allow herself to be won in such a tepid way as that. He resolved that the next meeting should happen in -doors, and he would then try whether a tenderer, warmer mode of wooing would not soften her and break down the terrible barrier which now seemed to keep them so coldly apart. CHAPTER XXI.. Michael's resolution was not carried into action. He saw his sister off next morning, and in the afternoon he received a note from Appledore written by Ruth from her father's dictation. The marriage was fixed for that day three weeks. Philip Byrant urged that it might not be delayed beyond that period ; he wrote that he was willing to leave the farm on Michael's wedding. day, if this was thought advisable. Inside the enyeiope, on a crumpled bit of paper and in a crabbed writing, were these words "Leave Ruth alone a couple of days; she's shy. P. B." Michael twisted the bit of paper angrily between his fingers and. then tore it Into fragments. He felt' angry and impatient If Ruth were shy, that was only a natural feeling, far more likely to be overcome in his presence than in his absence. He was half tempted to disregard the foolish sug- gestion and to ride over at once to Apple- dore ; for the next day he would have to spend at Newbridge, where he would probably sleep. He reflected, however, that the note might have been suggested and he fele that it would be unkind to y Ruth, although she did not write it; thwart her. It seemed incredible the t in three weeks she should be his own, his wife ; thenceforth nothing need ever- more part them. His eyes brightened, his chest swelled and broadened ; the man's. whole figure seemed to dilate with an ineff- able sense of joy and triumph, as he mur- mured the refrain of a German song which he had sometimes sung to please Dorothy. "She is mine, she is mine; she has told me she is mine." The last phrase was true, but not in the sense he desired. "Well" -he had stood thinking for a while -"I believe I expect too 'much, A French girl is not expected to love her future husband till after the ceremony of marriage. It must surely be my own fault if I -cannot teach my darling to love me in the future." . Michael did not note that the naming of his wedding -day, with the secure feeling it had given him, had completely blotted out his desire to wait for his happiness till Ruth had learned to love him. He was an untiring man of business, but he always found time before he left his room to read each morning a few verses from an "Imitatio" which his mother had given him when he left school. This morning his reading had ended with the verse, "For man proposes, but God disposes ; for man's way is not in himself." Ho had a slightly uneasy feeling as he put the book down, but he had to hurry over his breakfast to get the early train for Newbridge ; he had also to see the paper -hanger anti plasterer. Then he gave orders to other work -people about various alterations he wished com- pleted in the house before Ruth became its mistvvrehsse.n these order's were given be started for Newbridge. He thought that if all went well, and he found the people he had to see there disengaged,he might get back to Purley that night by the last train, or At any rate he should get one which left Newbridge at five in the morn- ing; but of this there was no certainty. He felt full of energy and determination, as he saw how much had to be done before his marriage. He decided that if Ruth still refused. to leave her father they would take Mr. Bryant away with them, for he longed to get a few days'' holiday with his wife before he 'settled dowii. to regular work -Relay existence as a married man. They would go, he thought, if teeth ap- proved, to a little seaside ,place on the Welsh oast -not too long a journey for the invalid, and. where the scenery' would de- light Ruth arid the flue air would strengthen her father. He was planning all this as he sat in the raillea'y carriage, and uncoil* sciously repeated to himself the refrain of the song. .All at once the vision that had Ailed hrs mind left hina, and he seemed, to hear the worcl,,s, ".9140, proposes, man pro- poses," and nothing Olge elccept the shrill whistle 61 the miglhe as it neared a tunnel, he reached NeWbridgit his bne/heee soon absorbed hint,te the exolusidh of Oen, other thought. It Was donbtlesa enabled 141011401 Clifford to grasp all q1100, tletie Stibitated to llitn so conclusively and so firmly that his opinion on, or his solution of, a difficulty at once carried weight With in His repatation already extended far beyond his own country. To.day, before he had half finished his business in Newbridge, he Was met by a request that he Would go on next morning to Chester, his presence there being, he was told by one of his clients, absolutely nec- essary in regard to the valuation of an estate about to be pureheeed by the brother of the said client. He did, not, therefore, return to Purley till late in the afternoon of the day after he had left lt-too late, he knew, to go on to Appledore. At breakfast next day a letter reached him from Miss Letitia Vareham ; it begged him to come at once to his sister. Dorothy had seemed ill on her first arrival, the writer said, but next morning the was in such an excited and fevered state that Miss 'Parasol called. in a doctor; he pronounced the patient to be very seriously ill, and suggested that a nurse should be sent for. Michael rubbed his forehead with the palm ot his strong brown hand. He loved Dor- othy very dearly, but he was only human. To -morrow was Sunday and he had counted on spending it at Appledore. Obstacles seemed to be thickening on the path of a better understanding, with his darling Ruth. He smiled at himself. Was not all this contradiction and thwart- ing of purpose an omen of future happiness? The course of true love was proverbially hindered. Only the arranged and 'wealthy marriages in whioh love was not a necessary condition went on evenly, without let or hindrance, till they were accomplished; it Was the "afterwards" with them that was full of thorny disappointments. But by the time Clifford was half way on his journey to Carlisle he was thinking more of Dorothy than of Ruth, Dorothy had been so good to him I -She bad never said so to Michael, but his brother David had told him years ago that their sis- ter might have been married if she had not devoted herself to make a home for her youngest brother when her father died. He rejoiced thee he had not consented to Dorothy's idea of leaving him. He resolved that when he had gained Ruth's' love he would persuade his sister to spend a large part of every year with them, even if she would not consent to look on the old house in Broad Street as her home. It was a terrible shock when he reached his destination to find that Dorothy was So ill that she did not recognize him; it was not possible that he could leave her till there was a favorable change. He wrote to Mr. Bryant and to Ruth to explain the reason of his continued absence from Apple - dere. He also wrote to a friend of his in Purley to ask him to keep watch on the work -people he was employing about his house, so that all might be ready. He had engaged the friend to be his best man at the wedding, and he still hoped that Dorothy would recover so that it might take place at the appointed time. (To nE CONTINUED.) THE LOGICAL DOG. -- Reasoning Powers 'Displayed by a Cana- dinit At the last meeting of the Society for the Study of Comparative Psychology in Montreal Mr. Anderson gave some Of his personal experiences in connection with the lower animals, among others a rather interesting one concerning a dog in his possessior. The dog had conceived a great liking for one of the members of the house. hold, and nothing pleased him better than being allowed to rest at the door of his room. The room was situated at the end of ta. hallway, which was covered by oil- cloth, consequently any person immediate- ly below could hear the dog when its claws came in contact with the glazed surface. One day the dog, as usual, had taken up its place at the bedroom door, but was sent downstairs. In a little while he was heard again crossing the oilcloth upstairs. Before removieg this time he -was given a good scolding, and it was easily seen from his looks that he was ashamed of himself. One of the members' of the household went into an opposite room, leaving the door slightly open, and awaited developments. In a short time the dog was seen approach- ing, walking with a peculiar gait ; the whole weight of his body was placed on the ball of his foot, and it was impossible to hear his claws touch the oilcloth. Have we not here a perfect case of reasoning somewhat as follows : " If I can only suc- ceed in passing the oilcloth I will be all right 1" When Ma Was Near.
