Something had happened to bo h of t ern.
In another minute Catherine w nt fort ard,
and he cried in in -eager voice :
"Pardon ! St{i-y ! Have we rn t befor: ? I

" I am Catlierine Raeburn."
Then she smiled and stooped her he d in

thought ahe wee an angel.
He went, to his room , and alked rap-

shock, a delightful shock: 1'very nerve
tingled -with a, eve -found joy. ' 'Catherine!'
Catherine !j' h whispered. " Oh, how
sweet she is ! ow lovely ! Sh is like sun-
shine. Shells li a music. It is 1 ke heaven to
stand and look at her."
Catherine was equally aft de 1. She has-
tened to the drawing -room an sat down.
1:A sweet, soft tumult filled he heart ; in-
voluntarily she clasped her hads above it,
.and the •dahlia fell to the ' oar. Their
scattered beauty recalled .her to: duty ; she
had been sent tplate them in certain vases
and she compel ed herself to do so. All the
time she was ondering and speculating..
Was he going to stay at Otter y ? Would
she see him again? Would s e see him
that night? ':When the family ere alone, or

tomary for the toys and their overness to

of special daiedf ies irritated her ; their plans
and interests,; or the first tin e, were tire-
some. She ws glad when the, said "Good
night," and she could sit qui t and recall
that most delicious interview. Nothing of
Mittel escaped her. Morpeth' momentary

maMter so eloquent with an ncontrollable
impulse ! Oh, there was so uch " said in
that short passage on the s airway. No
stranger had ever before been n a moment
so familiar with her, and to h Was he a
stranger ?
At this quertion a look of i tense inquiry
came into herface. Shejdrew her brows to-
gether, andsent llemoi'yba k, and back,
through all h r childhood. S adows of pain
and doubt fol owed the effort. She rose and
went to the inclow and looked intothe
garden, flood d with moonshine. "It is the

struck voice, "and he he the lover that I

They were tinder the same roof, and of
two hearts so, enthralled, love found many
sweet opportunities. That they were stolen
ones, made thelm all the sweeter. Love en-
joys the idea of contradiction: Love does
not really want its course to, run smooth.
Catherine felture Mrs. Mowbray was vex-
ed if Lord Mo peth paid her any attention.
If he sat by her side, or took her for a
walk, or made an excuse to go with Willie
to the school -room, she took care to inter-
fere. 11orpeth complained that his position
was still harder. His uncle 'had chosen a
wife for hien. Abut lie was determined to
marry no one{ but Catherine. They made -
much of such hindrances to their meeting. as

They took a certain joy: in concluding that
not only humanity, but destiny was disposed
-to cross their happiness.` Morpeth did_ this
consciously, for it put Catherine more and
more under 1us influence ; Catherine was
sincere , in her self-deception ; sae knew
nothing of life, and was at this time as iu-
capable of wisely guiding herself as she
