j A Checkered Career. < [Original ] Lorine Whiting at eighteen saw a greater bouleversement in her family affairs than most girls would be able to stand up under. Her father, who had inherited a fortune, had become Involved in an inextricable lawsuit and had lost it and with It every’ cent he possessed. He died from the effects of his misfortune. His wife was a delicate woman, and none of his children except Lorine was grown. Unfortunately there were no relatives on whom the stricken family could call for assistance, and they were thrown into abject poverty. Lorine when the blow came was about to make her entrance into society, and she was capable of making an excellent match. But the blow falling when It did. her opportunities were cut off on the eve of fulfillment Langdon Morehouse, a schoolmate a year older than herself, was a youthful lover of hers, but at the time of her misfortune he was in college, working his -4vay through almost entirely by his own exertions. None of the poor girl’s associates could have kept up their acquaintance with her except by visiting her at a broken down cottage on the outskirts of the city. Lorine possessed a voice, and this decided her to try for an engagement in one of the many light operas in which the bulk of theater going people delight. But she had only begun to cultivate her gift when the family misfortune came, ard she was obliged to accept a position in the chorus. She saw nothing of her theatrical associates except at rehearsal and during performances, the rest of her time be-

ing taken up at home with the care of her mother and her brothers and sisters. Butler Goodwin, the man who by means of dexterous and unscrupulous legal devices bad ruined the head of the Whiting family, saw her on the stage and was greatly struck with her. He sent word to her asking for permission to visit her and was refused. He went to her home —if it cou.d be called a home—and offered assistance. This was declined. He had just enough conscience and amour pTopre to feel the rebuff and resolved that he would bring everything to his satisfaction by winning her for his wife. He was a contemporary with her father, thirty years older than Lorine. who hated him. But she was placed in a position of great temptation. Her mother needed medical attendance and medicines; her brothers and sisters were in rags and hungry. By becoming the wife of the man who had produced all this misery she would be mistress of a fortune and could alleviate their distress. She consented to sacrifice herself. On the day of her marriage ten mln-

utes after the performance of the ceremony a note was handed her begging her to sing the same evening an important part of a singer who had been suddenly taken 111. Notwithstanding the positive refusal of the consent of her husband she determined to accept the part and left him for the theater. The result was a decided hit. When the curtain fell on the last act the manager saw her in the greenroom and offered her good pay to take a similar part in an opera he was about to put on the stage. A tumult of thought coursed through the girl’s mind. Presently she said: “I will accept on one condition." “It is granted. Name it” “My salary must commence from this moment.” “It shall commence from a week ago today.” Then and there she signed the contract and left the theater with a check for an amount ample to relieve the present wants of herself and her family. But instead of going to her husband she went home to her mother. He never saw her again. I Lorine from that time rose rapidly. Her income was sufficient to enable her to secure Instruction, besides proj viding for her mother and brothers and sisters. On her second contract her salary was doubled. I Ten years passed. Lorine was earning a fine income In regular opera. Her stage name was Mme. Monaldi. One evening Langdon Morehouse went to the opera. He had completely lost sight of his school love, and when she went upon the stage she concealed the fact so far as possible from her former associates. Her youthful freshness was gone, but she was now a hand1 some woman. Morehouse did not recognize her. But she saw him in the audience and noticed him. The result was that he asked for an introduction. ; Lorine concealed her identity. He became attentive to her, but told her of his youthful lovb which had been broken when he was at an age not to be able to help the object of it or even keep track of her. Year after year he had hoped to be in a position to warrant his seeking her. He bad been disappointed in his endeavors and was beginning to think that his fancy had better be remembered as a dream than renewed as a reality. One evening when Morehouse was with Lorine after an opera she handed him a letter to read. It announced that Butler Goodwin had died and left her all his property. He handed the letter back with a sigh. She was richer than before and removed farther from him. “I will accept this fortune only on one condition.” she said—“that it goes immediately to you.” Morehouse looked at her in astonishment. “1 am Lorine Whiting,” she said In explanation. Coodwin’s property was used to ’ ftnnd a hospital, and Lorine married ’ Morehouse. ’ ANNIE STONE SYKES. I
