Continued,

Those wero tho last words I heard aa I stole from the room. I Btole out softly, shutting the door noiselessly behind me. Then I fled—fled blindly—through the passage, through tho orchard, and out into the country lanes. In the house or garden tho girls would find me. They wero dear girlsl but they would be curious and question mo. They wero kind, and they would pity me, and comfort lao!—and I could not bear their comfort or their pity!

I throw myself down on a grassy bank beneath a high shady hedgo, and buried my hot face in my hands, and tried to get used and hardened to tho feeling of my shamo. Tho shame seemed to burn out all other feelings. I forgot my love I only realized my humiliation.

Two or three scalding tears fell through my fingers then tho tears dried up. My head throbbed and burnt my hot hand, pressed against my brow, did not cool it. There was a sound of advancing steps, and I roso hurriedly to floe. At tho same moment Ned came in sight round the curve of the high-edited lane. I guessed rather than 6aw that it was he I walked on swiftly, away from him, down the grass-grown path.

Would ho ho kind and let mo go? Would he protend not to seo that 1 was beforo him as I was pretending not to know that he was behind me? Would he sparo mo the humiliation of standing faoo to face with lnni again? The questions whirled through my brain, whilst 1 listened with strained attention to the linn, quick steps that followed.

Tho stops hastened ho meant to overtake me. When 1 realized his intention I stood still. A green gato opened from tho lane into a meadow I stood still beside the gato and waited for him, halffacing him as he advanced, my cheeks in a scarlet flame, my eyes defiant..,daring him to pity me.

If ho showed that he was sorry for me. I would never forgive liim! If he was embarrassed and conscious of my embarrassment, 1 should liato bitn always! —always!

He camo to tho gate, and stood still before me. "Mab,'' he said. His tone was a littlo graver than usual, but frank and simple and direct. Somehow, though bo had spoken but

YOUIMC NOT GOING TO I.ET THIS Sl'Oil, OUI'. FIUKNDSIIIP?"

one word, the bitter edge of my humiliation vanished my eyes looked across at him with a less defiant glanco. "Mab, you'ro not going to let this spoil our friendship?" "N—no.'' said I, doubtfully. 'it needn't—unless—" "There is no 'unless'," replied Ned, in his old masterful tone that set me at ease at once. "A silly girl, with no sense and pluck, would think it necessary, perhaps, to bo dignified and distant and avoid me. But you're not that kind of girl at all! Mab, I shall be awfully disappointed in you if you let this make any difference to us."

It was a familiar voice of authority which, ever since I was a toddling baby and Nod a- lcnickerboclcered hero of

^6ius, had always been accustomed to obey. Now my eyes mot his we smiled at one another. "Walk homo across the meadow with me, Mab,''s.iid he. lie opened tho gate and we passed through together. Then he suddenly stood still. "No, no," he exclaimed, "you ve.no hat. and the sun is hot." "1 don't mind it." "Don't you? I mind it for you

Twenty-five has lordly airs but seventeen loves its heroes to be masterful. Neb turned back with mo through the shady lane we were silent almost all the way, but our thoughts were busy at last, on a sudden impulse, I spoke. "1 am so sorry." 1 said, "about Mabel." "Yes," ho replied, briefly. Then again ho was silent. Ho walked with mo as far as the garden-gate, and there we

parted. SKfpp .V--t'11 CHAPTER IX.

Four years had passed. -'I A very silent family sat at the breakfact table this August morning the head of the family had descended in an irritable mood and his women-folk, observing the puckers on his brow, were nervously anxious to avoid calling his attention to themselves. "The coffee is cold, Mabel. It's strange that wo never have a decent cup of coffee in this house!"

For nearly four years our oousin Mabel had been our step-father's wife he had long ago ceased to smile at her benignly, and ceased to extol her virtues. "Tho toast is tough," he grumbled. "My dear, will you be good enough to give a little thought to these domestic duties? There is one of your children crying—is that Sydney again?" "I think so, dear," was the gentle, nervous reply. "I thought I forbade him to cry." "Yes, hut—but, you forget, Adrian. lie's such a baby—too young to understand." "Not too young to be ruined by in- ^0U

dulgence. After breakfas'- you can go.

to the nursery and send Sydney into tho study to me." "Adrian, you are so severo with him." •'On the contrary, Mabel, I am most gentle. But one can not too early teach one's children to understand the inevitable consequences of their own actions. When Sydney disturbs our comfort bv

crying In a foolish and peevish manner, we disturb his idea of comfort by seating him without his toys for two or three hours, with his faco toward the wall in tho corner of my study." "But—" "Enough on tho subject, Mabol. Pray do not become argumentative, my dear."

A painful silence onsued—a silence so heavy and painful that Alico, my youngest sister, boldly brolco it. "Mab, do you know that Ned Barnet's going abroad? Ho is. 1 heard it."

Alice suffered for her boldness: our step-father looked slowly In her direction. "When was that frock of yours olean, Alice?" "Yosterday, papa." "So I imagined, my deilr," was the mild-voiced reply. "No wonder the bills from tho laundress are extortionate. You will wear no more washing frocks this summer. After breakfast you can take off that dirty dress and put on the black serge you wero wearing in the winter. You will wear nothing olse until I give you permission." "Papa, there's tho Barnots' garden party to-day." "You can wear your black serge—or remain at home."

Ho roso as he spoke, carefully brushing a speck of dust from his sleeve. Ho had successfully depressed tho spirits of us all, and his own temper had grown almost placid tho creases in his brow had smoothed themselves out, and ho went slowly and contentedly away to administer reproof to his three-year-old son in the study.

I went out of doors into the garden and there, half an hour later, Alico joined me Sho was a pretty, graceful girl of sixteen. Sho camo walking slowly toward me with a very woe-be-gone countenance. The sorgo dress was badly mado and too small for her the material was coarso and thick it was a last winter's frock—and last winter Alico had worn her skirts short, and lately sho had tasted tho dignity of skirts that reached her ankles. "Look at me, Mab," sho cried, tho tears in her eyes, her voice indignant, yet pitiful, "Mab, tell me truthfully, do I look absurd?" "The dress is hideous, but you look pretty in spite of it," said 1 lovingly. "Dear old Mab! Oh, Mab, I wish the tables could he turned for a bit and we could he tho tyrants. I should like to dress papa in a school-boy jacket and an Eton collar, and make him wear his hair long in ringlets."

Wo laughed. Alico linked her hands around my arm. and we strolled slowly together down the garden paths between tho trim beds with their low, closelycropped box-borders. I longed to ask a question a simple question enough, but it was only with an effort, after much deliberation, that I asked it.

Alice, who told you that Xed was going away?" "They were talking of it at the Cedars yesterday." "Ah! it's true then!

Some scientific expedition wants him to come with them. I didn't listen very attentively—but they're going to explore some place, Africa, or Australia, or some place. His mother was so funny, Mab! She's proud of his being asked to go, but sho wants him to refuse. She say.3 it's an honor: and then sho forgets the honor and says sho has heard of tigers and rattlesnakes."

I made no reply. After a minute Alice chatted oil again. He'll be away for a year or two if be goes. We shall miss him, shan't we?"

Vos. Don't you think it's odd of him to wish to go?

It seems to mo quite natural." I replied, abruptly, almost sharply. "Ilis scientific work is most absorbing to him he becomes more engrossed in k, every year." "Hut, he ought to settle down and marry he's getting so dreadfully old."

"MAY I COME A SIC ELI.

Not very old. Twenty-nine." I wonder why he doesn't marry, Mab. Do you know what tho girls have fancied? "No. "They have fancied lately that he meant to marry yon."

I turned sharply away. Bonding over the sweetrpeas, I plucked a sweot-scent-ed, many colored handful. "But he can't marry you if ho insists on getting eaten by snakes and crocodiles in Central Africa." "Don't, Alice!" I exclaimed, harshly.

She threw her arm in an impulsive, caressing way around my shoulder. "Poor old Mab! you're not cross?" she questioned. "No. But don't talk like that—I don't like it, Alice."

Alice regarded me in silence for a moment. "Wouldn't you marry him if he asked you?" said she, in a thoughtful tone. "NO." "Really?"

cied that you would." The girls' voices reached us from the lawn, and after a few minutes Alice deserted me and ran across the grass, and presently her voice reached me with tho rest.

I strolled on, away from the sound of the merry chatter and laughter. My heart was heavy. stena unomw1

snag

weighted with lead I had suddenly grown too weary to walk. A little sum-mer-houso stood beside the pathway I entered and sat down on tho rustic seat and laid my arm on tho rustic table.

I looked out v^ith iixed, unseeing eyes through tho open doorway. Two or three minutes passed then between tho doorway and tho sunshine Nod Barnot stood. "May I come in?" he asked, taking the permission for granted, and entering even while ho spoke. Ho held out his hand, and my hand was still In his when he sat down on tho seat beside me. "I hoped I should find you alone," he said.

I smiled in acquiescence his tone had a gentlo meaning as, of late, it had often baa out would not understand it. "I came to speak to you, Mab."

His gray eyes looked down into mine with a direct, frank glance. 11 still retained my hand and I lot it rest there, too proud to draw it away. "Mab, do you know what I want to say.-

Ho did not answer mo. Ho roso from his seat and walked to tho door. After a minute 1 rose, too. Standing in tho doorway, leaning against tho creepercovered framework, wo faced each other. "That was not what I came to say," he observed at last. "You're not going?" "Whether I go or stay, Mali, depends on you," ho replied slowly, looking down at me.

My vaunted self-possession deserted mo a little then I was conscious that a wave of color swept into my face my glanco fell. I was angry with myself for tho blush: with an effort I raised my eyes and looked at him again. "You want my advice. You must tell mo all about tho proposed expedition first I scarcely understand well onough to advise you." "I don't want you to advise me."

Ho looked down at mo steadily. "Mab, you know what I want—vou know as well as 1 do. I liavo tried again and again to speak to you—you knowthat, too. You have always prevented me. But now 1 must speak. 1 love you. Mab: if you will give me any liopo, I will stay in England, but if not—if I am no use hero, if there is no liopo for me—I may as well go."

There was a note of deep feeling in his voice that set my heart, beating madly, joyfully. But next moment I was reasoning with my unreasonable happiness, bitterly smilingat it. "You do not believe in mv love," ho continued, in his quiet, steady tone. "I have felt your incredulity. But you must believe, Mab." "I do believe," 1 returned. I believed that ho loved nie, but 1 believed, too, that his love was based on pity. I believed that it wasa forced growth,which ho had carefully fostered, and which, if the care and encouragement which he had bestowed on it were withdrawn, would die an easy and natural death. Four years ago he had learnt that I cared for him the thought of my unrequited love had pained him constantly he bad been very sorry for me, very grateful to me he had longed and striven to pay the debt of affection which, unasked, 1 had bestowed. And his heart had answered the demand he made upon it. lie loved me. 1 had watched his love grow, read it in tho softer glances which nowadays he gave' me, heard it in tho gentler, less masterful tones with which he spoke to mo. But such lovo was humiliating— more humiliating than his indifference had been. He loved me, not inevitably, but of deliberate, anxious desire. "I do believe." I said. "1 think you love me—but 1 think, too, that if you try you will forget me.'" "Mab, you aro cruel!'' he exclaimed in a quiet voice, but reproachfully. lie made no further protest, no stronger denial. Protests were not much in Ned's way, but 1 chose to ignore that truth. In mv pride and bitterness 1 chose to toll myself that ho knew he would, if lie tried, forget. Lovo which is based on gratitude and pity will die an easy death when the basis of gratitudf and pity has been withdrawn. "You think me fickle. Mab. Perhaps

I deserve your judgment I have proved lickle once. 1 shall not change again, I think."

He qualified his assertion by "1 think," for Ned's -statements were always temperate—but tin-re was littlo doubt express'-d in his voice and glance. He came a step nearer me and took my hands in his and looked down into my eyes. In spite of myself, 1 let my soul for one loner blissful moment drink its fill of happiness. My heart danced my head was light with intoxicating joy. Then resolutely I struggled away from the love that tempted me again I called pride to my aid. [To he continued]. V/'"'-"'!

An honest Swede telle his story in plain but unmistakable language for the benefit of the public. 0n6 of my children took a severe cold and gotthecronp. I gave her a teaspoonfnl of Chamberlain's Cough liemedy, and in five minutes later 1 gave her one more. By this time she had to cough up the gathering in her throat. Then she went to sleep and slept good for fifteen minuteB. Then she got up and vomited then she went back to bed and slept good for the remainder of the night. She got the croup the second night and gave the same remedy with the same good results.
