A SAPE INVESTMENT.
Conclusion.
'There was no smile on John Rysland's.
face as he closed the door.
"I could. have won ter," he thought
bitterly, "if I had no been a fool; and
had known what was good. for me before
it was too late. Now, whether I am
rained or not she's equally lost to me.
She loves me and I love her, and I mast
never see her again."
- It was a bright day in'November one
of those days when Nature takes Pleas-
ure in showing b.ow small is her sympathy
with human emotions, that there came
the final demolition of . John Rysland's
fortunes. The gloom 'cm his , partner's
brow announced it even before the fatal
letters were read Which made it sure';
but it was there in black white—
one house was gone, the other tottexe

hard to realize at once what has actually 1 when
occurred.- John Rysland did not yet “Do
realize that he must "begin again."
"Here are two more letters for you; I
hope they may be less disagreeable."
The first was &ern his mother :

right to hear it.
"I mean nothing in particular, John.
I only.say that i you had any apologies
to make to Mori , it would be a good.
opportunity whe there is no one else
by. I
Even to John ysland's dulled senses
so broad a hint as plain. He started
to meet Mona k owing what he was ex-
pected to say, an that he meant to say
it, but not so ce ain of _how it was to be
done. To offer •mself to Mena, in ex-
change for her lo t fortune, seemed great-
er aasurince tha he could ever find
courage for; he new perfectly well how
it would look o others.: "And yet,"
thought he. "w at signify appearances
when I am sure ef my own motives? If '
she loves me she will not care what any
one may say, and I think I can convince
her that I lovg her. I am afraid to think
how long I have loved her—or what life
might have beenito me now."
His thoughts I were brave, but there
was very little volor in his face ae he
caught sight of Mona in the distance. It
was a day of clouds and sunshine, alter-
nate brightness and gloom, and one of
the transitory gleams illumined the little
figure as she came to meet him. He ac-
cepted it as a good omen, and felt his
man's boldness return to his aid.
"How can I look you in the face,
MonaV' he said at once without pream-
ble, as he took her hand. But though
he so spoke, he continued to do it with-
-out much difficulty; far more easily in-
deed than she could look at him.'
"Why did you do this thing, Mona?"
he continued, as she made no reply.
"How could you expose me to such risk
of self-reproach ?" The question was
cleverly worded, for it stung her into an
answer which betrayed her.
"You told my uncle you wanted it, So
I thought—"
"How did you know I asked him ?"
he inquired mercilessly, as he saw the
tell-tale blood creep over cheek and
neck. "I nevei told you. I can guess
now, Mona—shall 1? The May night
-was warm—"
"Oh, no, no, do not guess!" she 'said
hastily. "Let us say no more about it."
"Say no more about it, Mona? You
think it can be dismissed so? You
know—my mother told yon—that it is
all gone ?"
d "Yes; but I have two thousand dol-
• lars left, cousin John. Will you take
them and begin again ?"
• He laughed outright. e
"You are the most reckless little we-
d . man in tbe way i of investments that I
. ever heard of, Mona?" Then he added
• gravely euough, "Yes; I will take it—if
, with it you will give me yourself."
, 'She did not answer, but, as is the way
, of women, began to tremble.
I "Listen, Mona," he said, taking both
her hands in his. "I make no excuse
• •
for saying this to you so soon, for you
kuow well that I have loved yea—longer
than I had any right to love you—if I
had done the right." '
He paused, but she neither ° affirmed
nor denied; only she tried to draw her
her hands away. I
"If," be continued, detaining the
hands, "if you heard part of what I said

for the money—you could do as you did,
