(Concitrded front last week.) • One day Arcllibeild came in with th air of one who was about a to confer pleasure. ; , - s ' - ' Bertha t' he called frobi the foot o th stairs, ,auk Bertha came down hi : . She bad., on a white • dress. an, some of. tho old crimson roses w ich she had brought \back from ca 1 on Maria that morning, were i he hair and on her bosom. She look ed to him just like the woman he ha wooed last year. In just this guise ha sh come down•to him then in the sof Ja e twilight, and he had hurried he on into the garden with beat4ng heart neirer guessing that he Was to he there no tender confession of love, bu a puzzled woman'sconundrum as t `whether she were justified in marryini without it. For one moment his hear bet with the old sweet tumult. H� was on the point of going up to her end taking her in his arms, but he rem.em beed the words of that other Ju n ni , aht, the words that awoke him the fr his lover's dream, with too kee • a litter'ness,: .He spoke to her ver quietly. ''iMy cousins, the 10eredi.ths are goin- :to Newport. They have taken a hous. th re for three months to come, an th y have invited you to go wit thdm. I think it willbe an excellen op ortunity for you, and you wer: wi hing for a breath of sea air the othe (IB '"Oh, yes," Bertha cried, delightedly "i will be charming. Arid ' you -yo '{ come too ?" he look of care, the weary look tha hat been- settling on his face fo, m nths past, seemed to deepen undo leek question e but he answered quietly I will come'when. I can. Business is unusually engrossing this summer, an. I can not get away often." So Bertha went off with the Mere diens, and Mr: Archibald remained be hind in the pleasant home a few mile. frern New York. He grew more an more busy, and many nights he did no go out from the city at all, but stai late at his desk, .and then snatched :. fe hours: of sleep at some down -tow i hotel. It was the summer of 1873, an• there were portents in the sky. Archi bald had been a careful and honorabl - business man always, but these were tier, es when no single ms.n's carefulness or onor availed much to stem the great bra le' wave of ruin that was rising' ate dily. •nce or twice he went to Newport, an. Bertha and he watched each other wit a curious- interest. Seeing him in the midst of other people, she began to adr ire him as she had never done be- for�. Ile was altogether a man, and sll grew proud of him, with a shy, half' teuder-prido that had a new sweetness' an a new trouble in it. Buthe told he noneof his anxieties. - She should ke the ease and prosperity for which she had married him . as long as he co. ld give them to her, he thought; hit- ter: the der ran lon mo: s y. It wasfor. woFnen who loved -r husbands to help bear their bur- s. The first week in September he down hurriedly. There was a ng in his heart to sec her just once e at her best, in the midst of all the goad things with which ho had sur- rounded her. What might chance be- fore the next time they met, who kndw ? She seemed. to him to have gra n young, almost like a girl, he thos ght. She deeve him up and down the beaches anti' along the avenue in Lerpretty little ! wagonette, and the gro in in the rumble thought, "'Ere for ono was 'appiness iu 'igh life." After that Mr. -Archibald did not write. The great black wave was sweeping down on him fast, fast. He wan struggling gallantly; but the tide was strong. One night a strange un- rest took possession of Bertha. She wondered what had kept him silent. She bad sent her weekly letter, full . of pretty little sentences, carefully writ- ten as ono writes Ni*ho is anxious" to please, but no word had come. The sea : seemed sadder than usual. It broke upon the beach with a long la- meiit. Through the pale fog the li;ght- hou4e lamps shone wierdly and fitfully. It seemed to Bertha that there. was troblo in the air, and she trembled fof hi , her husbai d. She had begun late y to think of him so differently fro what she used. She went to bed, but all night long she heard the waves co p-laiu, end her heart kept time to the .rouble that was on the sea. The next morning she came :down attired for travelling: Mrs. Meredith - deplrecated so sudden a departure, and, everybody was politely anxious that she should remain. . But no, sho was goir g horue. There was a little chok- ing u her throat as she said the words. She had only now begun to realize how dear home was to her. All day she travelled, and it was af- ter . ark when she entered her own hou .e. She asked for lir. Archibald, and wastold that he had not been home for three dayse Something must be eVroug, she was sure. She went into his ktudy ; it was dusty and desolate. Her last letter lay unopened upon his desk:. She hada little tiro made iu the grate, and she herself dusted the books and writing matorials. If he cam honi.e, he should find a more cheerful plat o than this had. been. She ate a little supper, and then went up etair-s to rest, charging` the. servants, if Nr. Archibald came, to say nothing of her pre. onto in the house. " She threw herself down upon her bed and began . to think. What was this that she felt for George Archibald ? '\\ray not this love at last, sweet, though late:' Now, indeed,slie kuew that lie was; more to her than all the world be- sideb, that she would rather have him, pont, than any ,ono else, rich—rather sha e his sorrows, whatever they might be, han rejoice with au.other. . "My lu ,band !" she whisrered over• andlover to herself, and t1ien she added, half; afraid of the too sweet, words, "11y love!! my lore !" ' T iinkin.g of hire, She fell asleep at last, and slept for a while very soundly. Meantime the evening; wore late, and the servants shut up the house and went to bed. It was almost midnight when George Arehibald let himself in with his latah -key, and. wentinto his study.: He did not notice the fire or the neatness, though perhaps a vague sense of comfort may have penetrated to his benumbed - souses. He took up Bertha's letter, which lay there still., and laid it down again, shaking as one who looks on death. " oor girl !" he said. "It was this homm she loved and married; not me ; and now all is lost, and I can never make it up -to her again—never." 1 And then he bowed his head] an is folded arms.; and the g. eat' black wave of ruin, which had sea ed °him at 1 t,- sinned over hit 1 1. ' l ,; .• • It was just then �ithat ometh g `awoke Bertha from her deep. 1e p. . he was supersti ious at heart • os o- men are—and it seemed to of tat something stood beside h r I° iu f ire darkness And whispered. t ' her !to 'come.
