Are you willing to give it all up and go with this stranger?” There was a rugged dignity about the farmer as he spoke. “Stephen,” put in his wife, ««do not let us interfere. The boy has a chance that does not come to one in ten thousand. He is to be a gentleman; we will not stand in his way. Think what being a gentieman means. And he will not desert us; he will never be ashamed of us; if anything, he will help us in our old age. Think twice before you stand in his light, Steph- en.

The air was heavy with summer- dews and fragrance, the moon had risen, remained with her and graceful shadows lay over the grass.— The beauty of the pale moonlight touched the boy’s heart, so full of longing and am. bition. “It would not be of much use for me to be a gentleman, Kate, if 1 could never come home to be one of you again.” “What would it matter about being of us?

The time for his departure was come; and now he stood ina blaze of July sunlight, and bade good-bye to father aud mother, sister and brother, kindred and home. “You will be a gentleman when you come back, Vane,” said Kate. +sDo not forget us,’’ cried his mother— | aud there was a ring of passionate pain in her voice.

Tuey were together one morning in the pretty breakfast-room at Luiwerth ilail, when the post-bag Was brought iu. «Read the letters, Vane,” said Sir Raye. He knew that in none of them would there be any secrets. The love of woman or child would never be and had never been for Lim. «Read them, Vane,” he repeated. Vaue obeyed him. He waded through a@ mass of correspondence—letters in Ge mun, French, and Spanish.
