‘.‘ I think," replied Judith, • after a
moment's silence, "that it would be

"Then open this desk and. write • at

Judith could do' °thing but comply,
so proceeded to try the pens, and. pre-

Alice, in the mean. nae, turned over the

Two weeks thus ;passed away, the

she suppressed eeeli doubt ks to the

her few pleasures ;1 and Why should
she refuse such i noc-ent ai.id sim-

But after a long bight of: troubled.
thought Judith rose, resolved that there
should,be a change ;- so, when breakfast

day, she quietly told Alice to bring her

Otis evening a letter from Mrs. ,Bier -

o Alice lay .coilier on the sofa Ifast

asleep; and judith was playing dr am-
ily in the firelight when David entiered
- the room and stood quietly behind her.

, indeed, it seemedto her she was always
, conscious of his every move and. glance.

- David's hand again upon her hair,
, -when she really felt it there, as on the
night of his arrival, her head grew
dizzy with happiness, and she pass-
ively allowed. it ta lean. against her
arm. Then his voice whispered,
" Judith,1 love you," and the spell was
broken.
c. With a passionate movement she re-
leased 'heritelf, and gasped, "You I are
unkind, you are pruel," she turned to
leave the room; but David's, hand !de-
tained. her.
' "Listen to me,. Judith." 1
"1 cannot, must not listen !" she
cried. wildly. " Whet would your
mother say ? Begenerous, and let me
go:"

"Oh, Miss Allan,
"Answer me' one question, Judith,
and you shall,go ; does my love for you
distress you for my mother's sake, or
mine; do you—ean you ever care in
the least for me, or must m.y life be
dark ?"
Judith's head dropped lower and low-
er until, drawn 'by David's encircling
arm, it lay an instant quiet on his
shoulder; then quickly she glided
from him, and, taking sleeping Alice
by the hand, disappeared in the dark
hall. •
Mrs. Barlowreturned from the bity,
looking tired and careworn, though the
two weeks in her sister's sick roorh had
evidently been seftening in their effect.
Late the same afternoon Judith re-
ceived a summons to the library, and
there, in an arm-bhair before the fire
sat Mrs. Barlow, Calm and stately, with
no evidence in her manner of what she
had to say. I.
"Miss Allan,", the began, without
moving her -eyes from the polished fen-
der at her feet, "my son tells me his
happiness depends ppon making you his
wife, and I sent for you to say I hope
you will not find it necessary to disap-
point him."
Judith started violently, turned pale,
and, overcome With sudden emotion,
burst into tears.
"My dear, I think I understand your
feelings," said the elder lady aft e a
l's
on,
let
love conquer, and marry him; I de-
sire it," and, rising as she spoke,
Mrs. Bartow softly touched her lips
to Miss Allan's cheek, then left her
alone.
. During the short month that follow-
ed, Judith drank in happiness with ev-
ery breath of air ;I then David returned
to the city, promising that all his Sun-
day should be spent at homek 1
The first week had passed away, And
on Saturday morning, while the whole
family were still at the breakfast table,
the mail -bag was brought in, and the
various letters distributed.
long silence; taking the young
icy hand in hers. "You love my
but pride, forbids you saying so;
David wants a small key from left-
hand drawer of his secretary, Judith,"
said Mrs. Barlow, looking up from
the note she was reading; "will you
get it for me? If expressed. on the
twelve o'clock train, it will reach him
early this afternoonIefore he leavesithe
city."
Rising with alacrity, Judith danced
gaily away to the library, that dear old
room where had been passed so na ny
of her happy hours. Unlocking the
great desk, she touched a hidden sp ing

Mrs. Barlow was very fortunately go-
ing to a dinner party, and Alice could
be sent to spend. the afternoon with
soul° little friend; she could say s le
was goieg to visit her aunt, and Jo in
would take her trunk to the station at
3 o'clock; David would pass her on is
way home.
Nothing occurred to frustrate juclitli's
plans, and leaving a sealed ote n
David's desk, she hurried to t e depot
just in time to catch the cit -bo d
train.
Three hours later Mr. Barlow ent r-
ed the house with a -quick step a d
happy face; his mother was still abse t,
so he went inamediately to .the librar ,
expecting to find -Judith waiting f r
him there. The room was vaca t,
however; then turning to ring the
bell' to make enquiries ef ser

1 white note lying on his desk, and

words:

David mechanically touched the
spring, and there, Side by side in the
pasteboard box, lay two little onyx
fuchsias. '
Silently .he dropped his tunas and
head upon the desk before him, and for
many moments the room was death-
like in its stillness ; then he sudCienly
started up, snatched pen and paper,
and dashed off a hurried letter, with

"David, what does this mean; where

"Gone, mother but believe me he

behind him, David hastened out i to
the night.
* * *
Three months had passed away si ce
the sudden flight of Mrs. Barlow's g v-
erness ; and in one of the hands() est
apartments of a Parisian hotel, on. t 's
clear, oold evening in February, a g n-
tle-faced lady sat listening, knitt ng
work in hand, to the • soft -voiced nd
pleasant reading of her young conap n -
ion, Judith Allan. The room was a
cheerful one; but several half-pac ed
trunks and open valises that were • si-
ble, proved the ladies to be merely trtu-
sient inmates Iately arrived and soo to
depart.
The quiet reading was suddenly in er-
rupted by a servant's entering to ay
that a gentleman who gave no card wi h -
ed Miss Allan to come immediately, to
the private saloon.
" Who can it be ?" said Yudith, el s-
ing her book in wondering surpri
"and what can he want with me?'
"The quickest way to ascertain, •
dear, is by going to see."
So Miss Allan rose and crossed
_hall to.the opposite room'on the tin
hold, she stopped-, startled, incredulo
a low cry escaped her lips, and w
outstretched arm es she impulsively
vanced a step; then the light died fr
the illumined face, and with 'ha
clasped before her she stood quiet, sta
ly and cold.
"Judith," said David, coining f
ward and taking her icy hands in
"have you no word of explanation

-" What need I say? did you thi k
my -respect could be retained' whe •1
leareed you were the author of the c w-
ardly actiou that I can never in my ife

"But, Judith, dearest, it was not 1,

'Oh; David," she sobbed, "can on
ever, ever forgive me. the wrong I ve
done you?" and, overcome with h p-
piness and remorse, Judith buried er
tearful face on his shoulder and kep it
there. •
"When you returned my letter n -
