Ile had got to face it. • • • lee pawed the whole,easo before hien, so o speale, arid tried. to ,reamed it eitimla and judiefella. Re was in love with Deenpa Deane. Re, years elder than she—and marred raan! Re wiped the meat from big face 'with an iteeteady baled. It 'seemed ridiculous ASTI absurd; but there it •was. Ana ella the ridicule he could pour on it Would. • not quench or doem the truth, Re triedto laugh as he thought of the difference in age, of the bond that held and galled him.; but the laugh rang hollow and une satisfactory, Ile loved box, And he knew it tvae the rst real love of his life. The fanea for the woman who bore his name had been a fancy only, and had died; changed, • rather, to contempt and loathing. Re had never really loved until he had met De- elem. And the SW -was everything in tife world to him. Life, hope, joy. Her face rose before him as he sat and thought. The sweet, girliish face wib itis• blue and ever-changing eyee, its mobile mouth and ite ,bright and inneeent smile, the soft, brown hair cluetering in 'tendrils on her white brow. leer voice with its innocent tone— ' • Lama:era! Yes, she was innocent; so ehild-like, that She did net guess( hew it was with him. Re Was not a geed man; but he thanked God that she (lid not know that—she must never kuove He must go away, go away at once.. ]Ie rose, stung to movement by the resolve, and. almost groaned. A shudder ran through him as he thought, of returning to the world, of going away from the sight ief her face, the sound, of be vole°. They 'were life to hira, ana his days with- out them would be shadetved by the ,dark. nese of a death iirelife. Need he go? She did not know, guess, • of his love for her. Re would keep a close watch and guard over everY look and. word. Why should be not have the consolation of • being near her? She had been like a guardian angel to Imin; she had, all innocently and unconrielonaly, led him out of the dark forest of deepair and gloom to -higher and brighter. lande. She had been hie saving angel.- If he left her e onld slip back • into the old life—the ol life he hated and loathed. As he paced tip and down with bent bead and hands tightla (Matched, he tried to persuade himself that he Should be con- teift to be near her, to see her occasion- 1)113re-that' he would hope .for, think off nothing more. Yee, that was hew he would work, it. She should be just an angel of light to him. He would go on loving her, but as the sailor loves the beacon star that lights him home through the. storm.; as the light that burns in the shrine of a saint. Inspired by that love, he would keep his life clean and sweet; he would devote it to her. Ile would be her slave, would do everything she wanted done for the place and the people. "Yes, that isellow it 'must be," he said, with a deme breath. "There is no „ ter ej.e. The child would never •• eren—even if I .were' ouly her free. Very good. Let me reamed t ae, tee remember it always, when I am with her or away from her. She is not for me. She can never be mine, but I can go on loving her. I -will never let her sus. peat; I will keep a elose guard on MY secret, and isle shall never know. It would only pain her, and, God knows, 1 would rather die a thousand deaths than she should suffer a moment's pain." Re laughed discorda,ntly. "What a laity one can not die when one likes," he eaid bitterly. "It would be to easy a 'way out bf it. But I've got to live—and X eau not live -without ber The last -words were uttered almost sav- agely. We all know how, at some tune or other, we stand at bay with Fate and fight him tooth and nail. Gaunt was fight- ine Pate for.ill he knew. The dinner -ben rang, and he went and dressed. Robson looked at tbe haggard face anxiously ana wondered. what was waive Re knew nothing of the great ,mistake, but he isuspected the existence of some hidden sorrow in his master's life, and he wondered whether it had eropped up again, for he had noticed the change of late for the better in Lead Gaunt's manner and. appearance. Gaunt went down totbeelaborate din- ner, but be could not eat, and teresentIY he rose and went out into the air. There was a faint meonlight; a night- ingale was singingeon one of the trees on the lawn. He saw Decima's face in the eoft light, lie heard her voice speaking through the birdee Preeently•heagot his hat, and, half mecbanicaIly, wen e up the avenue and along the read to The- Wood- bines. e As he reached the house and stood in the ehadow of the trees on either side of the road, he heard the piano, and then her e—the clear, eweet, girlish voice which echoed in his heart all clay. She was singing one of the simple songs sbe used to sing to Lady Pauline, and every note, as it floated out to him, struek eon. a chord in his heart and filled him with the pain of intense longing. Ile went horns again, with the Sweet, eirlish voice ringing in his ears. But he would not go into the hourie, and he pared ender the firs in the plantation anal the ' deavn began to beYond the hills. 'I love here was the thought that ached in his heart. "I love her; but she shall never know. She shall never know." In the morning some plans came down by post. 31e had promised to take them • to ber. Should he de so? Re prayed, •thirsted for, a eigbteof her. Why should he not goP He would begin the watch • over himself. . • After breakfaet he went, with the plans in hie band, up to The Vroodbines. _Ai reaethed "the gate he heard aoieee—ege "eimies and a Man's—and then he saw her and Mr. Mershon in the learden. Re bad met the young man once or twice, and exchanged greetings with hien; but it had co chanced that he had not, seen him and Deeima together, EEc looked over the gate, and there was Mr. • ,Mershon holding a chryeantlasmuni while Deeinia, tied it to ce etiele.

She opened eat the plans so that they rested en her knees and hes. "There's a bell in that tower, of course. Will 'it run,' as Bobby would say, to a bell, Lord Gaunt?" yes: it will run to it bell," he said, meohanically, for her hand was -toweling his 'arm; and all his senses were throbbieg. "Will rt? I ani so glad! And that is the big school -room. What is the *size? But X am worrying you, and I meant you to rept!" she exclaimed, renaersefully. 'It is not worrying me,' he teed.

"What bas Mr. Mershon to do with tbe schoole?" she said. "Like him? Oh, yes, 1 suppose so. I never thought, never .aeked myself the queetion. But now X come to do so, yes, I think I do.

What Your Tongue Tells. The latest, "scientific" whit', a substitute far palmistry, haling from Germany, is the pastime of reading ,tharaeter and telling for- tunes by the tongue. A sensitive, quivering tongue usually is of a se- cretive, nature; and likely to sue- ceed in life, either as a lawyer or .aa a, detective; hut, although he may ecquire money by econ,omy and cunning,. he has not the larke- nes,s ,c/f mind necessary to. the amoaSing of a, great fertune. Long tongues suggest generosity and openhande,dness. But tbe man with a, long, bead tongue is apt to be a - dangerous gossip ;just, as the man with a short, broad tongue is ad- dicted to craft, and even. Clee.,eptive-. ness.
