Our heroine was sad. Her
life was blighted by a union toone
who could not understand and syra'-

sighed for an affinity.
• The doorbell`rang. She looked
up listlessly at the entrance of a man-

glance.

" I beg your pardon, but—"
She interrupted him with a mean-

womanly tenderness, she fell upon

Olivia, touched the bell An obse-
quious servant appeared. Olivia
opened her secretaire, took out a
phial, and handed it to the servant,
with a significant gesture in the di-
rection of the invalid's chamber.
CHAPTER IL —SCORNED.

with a bow,
" Madame, 'tis done."
"Enough. Inform the under-
taker." •
• Turning to her guest with a win-

Doctor Pillsbury was confounded

"But my children !" he feebly

she said contemptuously.

CHAPTER V.—THE FROZEN hEART.
But Olivia is unhappy. She feels
a void in her life—an unfulfilled
mission. The widow of the false

with her offspring to a distant land.
