You have most cruel- ly punished me for being “My FAaTHER’s Son.” “Now there will be never a word be- tween us again,” said Vane, as he folded and sealed the letter. He gave it to Lord Charuwood’s valet, and requested him to sive it to Lady Lilias Audley at once. When she went to dress for dinner she found it on her toilet-table. She read it carefully, and then the mistake she had made flashed across her. It had been no ease of fraud, deception, love, or jeslousy. ‘The girl was his sister, and she had mis- taken all. Lord Charnwood was the only one who suspected that anything was amiss. «Tam sure they are lovers,” he said; ‘and they have had a lover’s quarrel.” His suspicions were veritied when he heard that Lady Lilias would leave King’s Clyffe on the morrow for Ulverscroft. He was a wise man and knowing the value of silence, he said nothing. Vane was driven to the station, and, when he reached it, he dismissed the ser- vants with handsome fees, He left his luggage in the booking-office, knowing that he could send for it at any time. Then he began the long walk home.— What his parents would say to him he did not stop to think. They would welcome him, he knew; his heart ached sorely, and they would comfort him; he was world- Worn and weary, and they would give him rest. His proud beautiful love should torture him no more. She had taken his heact in her hands, and had crushed it as she had crushed the wild-flowers, ‘The sun was setting, and it seemed to him that the clouds were of the color of of my blood. Suddenly the old familiar music of the mill-stream came to him. He saw the lim » the river, the pret- ty farm-house, and the honeysuckle round the windows. His thoughts began to grow confused and he was faint from want of food. Only one thing was clear to him; there Was one t in all this darkness. He was going home, so that he could take care of his winsome sister Kate, and, if the Duke of Raysfort came there again he would-meet him on the threshold. He Was free now and could speak his mind. His senses were certainly confused. The rush of the mill-stream and the rustle of the greeu leaves grew louder. Standing en the threshold of bis home, he faucied he saw tue proud beautiful lady he loved, with the sunlight on her dead-gold bair, and «sword in her white band. It was his mother standing uuder the houey- suckie, luoking wouderingly and anxiously at him. seSother,” le said gently, «Iam worn and weary. 1 have come Lome to rest.” The next moment be was lying sense. less, Witu vis ead on Lis mother’s breast.

Before he Was quite awake, while the dew lay on the honeysuckle, these words passed through Lis mind again and again. "Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam, Be it ever go humble, there is no place like home: A charm from the skies seems to hollow us there, Which seek through the world is ne‘er met with eleewhere.” He had learned his lesson; he had tried his wings, had broken them in his flight, and he had come back tothe nest. He had tried the world, and bruised, batter- ed,end beaten, he had come home to rest. «Heme, sweet home,” he repeated to himself; “there is no place like home.” His mother had held him in her arma and grieved with bitter words that she had ever let him go from her. The old farmer had clasped his hand and said— «Heaven bless the bonnie lad! Iam best pleased tosee him home again.” And Kate could do nothiug but look at him and adwire him. . . . . ° . Vane had not been home twenty-six hours. He had gone to the mill-stream, his favorite spot. ‘There he could collect his thoughts, and decide what was best to be done with the remainder of his bi ed, marred, and ruined life. He would not leave home again; this one little circle of simple loyal hearts loved him as no others cou! He sat down where the sound of the water was ple: test, and, as of old, iost himself in dreams. was Kate who roused Lim. She came to bim hastily, with bright eyes and a flushed face. Vane,” she said, “you are wanted.” “Who can want me, Kate? No one knows that I am here.” “Yes; some one does. You must come, Wane. I promised not to tell who it was. It is some one who kissed me, so they must love you. Come, Vane.” «Who is Ah, Kate, do not jest with me just now! ‘1 am not jesting. Come.” He rose and went with her, She led the way to the pretty little parlor, where, long before, Sir Raye Vibart had spent so =, lonely hours. “You must ia alone,” she said. « Wave an idea tat Tamnct wastes “7 He went in—he had no idea as to whom he should ste nd there before him stood nsdizasa woe veautitus sy-aressea nzgure, ne saw lace pale with agitation, the trembling lips, the pleading eyes; then a m, ame his own, and his great passionate ore stirred in his heart and shook his pole frame. ee ae he was speaking to him—she who Lad rejected him wit scorn, who bad lb such imperious him with hands foid from b sent him ed, and Le: ter.
