cruel were ho to plunge a knife into
Leah's breast; he knew that it
would kill her more surely than if
he had gone away and left her long
before. Was it his duty to consider
her first? Clearly. Ile had asked
her to bo his wife! he had never
dreamed that a time would cotno
'when ho should love with all the
maleness, the passion. the impetuos-
ity of youth; he had fancied in some
vague way that Itis engagement
would save hem from it. Yes—be-
fore he thought of himself or hia own
happiness, ho trust think of Leah.
Only a few months since, his life
had lain before hits bright and calm
as a summer sea; he had known but
little trouble Ile had youth,
wealth, every /good gift, in short;
now all these were valueless to him,
because he [oust renounce the thing
ho loved best. Weighing all tho cir-
cumstances, he did not think ho
could have called himself dishonor-
able had he told the whole story to
Leah. But he could not crush her—
her whose only fault was loving him
net wisely, but too well. She must
be his first care, since she was his
promised wife. But, while he was
deciding to surrender all hopes for
the future, he determined to have
ono more glimpse of paradise and
say farewell to Nettie, so that Ito
might. take with hint through all
time elle memory of her words and
looks. •
On the morning after he had comp
to this decision ho told the• general
that. it was very probable he should
be compelled to return to Glen in a
few days. Business awaited hien;
one or two leases had fallen in—and
there was adjoining property for sale
—in fact, there were several import-
ant reasons why he must go at. once.
"Leah will bo very sorry," said
Sir Arthur, whose first thought was
always for his beloved niece.
Sir Basil Wan not the ratan to do
things by halves.
"Why need you linger after I am
gone? Yon can bring Leah back to
Brentwood. I am sure she will be
pleased to be at home again, though

Sir Arthur laughed and looked
pica -eel.
"You must talk to Leah about
that. Basil," he said. "Place aux

"Yes, I will talk to Lenli about
it," returned the other, impetuously.
"i do not see the use of this long
delay."

do not understand the art of love-
making; but you have both had
plenty of time to make up your
minds. You love each other; I do
not see what need there is for fur-

How Sir Basil tvinecil et the simple
words, at the implicit. faith, the
complete conftd.nec and trust reposed
in him. What would this old sol-
dier say if he knew that he had giv-
en his heart, his love. to some one
else?
The same duty lie told Leah of his
intention to leave Deno. He often
afterward thought of the scene. She great love, but is it not a hind

She had been smiling as she looked
over the engravings; but her face
changed es she heard the words.

A quiver of pain passed over her

her eyes. He thought to himself, if
the simple anr•uttnctment of his de-
