She was a gloriously handsome creature, quoenly as Juno, with the grnce of Venus added dark, lustrous eyes, Jetty hair and olive skin glowing with crimson. Her white hand strayed carelessly over the burp strings as though unmindful of ber companion, a fair-haired youth, who "hung over her with an abandonment of devotion suoh as only youth can feel and show.
Tbe twiUght grew denper, nnd the French clock told the hour. Tbe woman seemed to start from her reverie ,»ho held up hi hand, with a half-chi-ding air, and said, 'Maurice!' v- The boy blushed deeply, a Pardon me—but the minutes liy so fast.'

She held out her hand. He bent over it reverently. A footstep sounded outside, and sbo quickly withdrew it, saylug carelessly, 'Goou-by.'
In the drawing-room soft music filled the air, and fair forms glided in the dreauiy walta. In the conseryatpry» far enough from tbe festive ball to have tbe brilliancy toned down to intoxic*tlng softness, Maurice stood by Isoline.

The place swam before his eyes, and In an instant be was pressing the hand to bis heart, and pouring forth words of love.
A look of triump flashed for an Instant beneath her downcast lids She bad won her game. She liked tb© boy, aud if she dared she would give back love for love but her llf6 already held oi too many dark secrets to risk another.

Hor voice was haughty tnd her eyes oold. Mutely Maurico. turned away aud left her. She waited till he left the conservatory, nnd then, with a low laugh, she returnod to the drawingroom. She left too soon to hear the bushes part, and a man with a stern, wbite face step out and walk to the door, whence ho watched her as she mingled in the throng. He glared at her with hateful eyes, and when, in reply to a remark, her light laugh came to him. he slipped forward. But bo checked himself, and said:

For Maurice's sake, I will not. I will go to him. Ho must let me help him.'
Ho left tho door and went to look for Maurice. No Maurico there. A servant said a gentleman had loft a short time before, looking very ill.

Well, we talked the matter over at length, and agreed to dismiss both Teddy and Sara Ann, giving them a months wages instead of warning.
I heard Sara Ann mutter to Teddy, 'shure and belave that missus* susplcts the master Is swate on mo.'

While we were at dinner brother Jobn arrived. I was a little curious to see if Tom would recognize, biut. He looked at him with a puzzled expression, but said nothing, but presently be -became immoderately gay, and indeed, almost brilliant.
