The idea of marrying for money was distaste- falto Frank Henniker. Like most men, no matter how “fast,” he bad looked forward in his inner heart to a time in the future when he should find a woman who truly loved him and should settle down into a quiet life and be very happy; and this ideal the thought of marrying for money dissipated. That it would be poasible for him so to do he had not the slightest doubt. Without being conceited he yet knew that he tleman and possessed of manners and bearing that insured him, at any rate among the younger members of his acquaintance, a hearty welcome wherever he went. But to marry for money—to give up all his sentimental ideas ot finding a dis- position that would be thoroughly congenial to is own—to marry a girl who in all probability would not haye a single thought or feeling in common with him—this was indeed a bitter pill to swallow. It was, however, no time for namby-pamby Ruin was staring him in the face, and disgrace was not sovery tar behind but that he could see the coming shadow. There could be no doubt about it; he must marry for money. Disagreeahle as the physic was, it must be taken, and upon whom should his chotee fali? the favorites.

Surely here was the very thing! ‘That same morning he had received an invita- tion from an exceedingly wealthy cotton spin- ner in Manchester, to whom he had recently had the opportunity of being of some service in town, asking him to spend Whitsuntide with him. ' This cotton spinner was a widower, and hadan only child,a daughter, Thoughtfully Henniker opened the letter and read it through. The contents ran thus: “THE MIDLANDS, Drospury, May 14, 18—. “DEAR MR. H&NNIKER: Papa, for whom I am act- as secretary, wishes to know if you will do us. leasure of spending Whitsuntide here, He un- derstood, I think, from what you sald when he was son. If you will let us know when and by what train we tay expect you, the carriage*shall meet yom at the station. Papa’ sends his kind regards, and hopes you will come. Beileve me yours, very truly, LILY MAITLAND.” “Lily,” inused Henniker, as he laid down the letter—a pretty name! ‘And it is a nice lady- lke hand she writes. I wonder what she is like? Just the opposite of the name, I dare say—a short, stout, awkward girl with large red hands and tremendous feet, who blushes | tearfully whenever she is addressed and hasn't a word to say for herselt; it is not difficult to understand what the daughter of an unculti- vated cotton-spinner, brouzht up under the ex- | tremely refining influence of Manchester society, will be like. Or perhaps she ts one of the ‘loud’ school, bold and masculine, a perfect boy in| petticoats. There's something rather free and easy about the letter, now I come to think of it, though it is written so nicely. However, as I have decided that she 1s to be my future wife, it Is searcely wise to pull her to pieces. I'm in tor the race now, and it would only be the act of avery foolish man to depreciate the prize;" and, pulling a writing case towards him, he hastily wrote an acceptance of Mr. Maitland’s kind invitation, promising to be in Manchester on the day but one afterwards. It was with no ‘very pleasant feelings that | Frank Henniker travelled down from Euston on the day appointed. Mr. Maitland was not at home, the butler who opened the door at the Midlands informed him, not having yet returned from business, but Miss Maitland was in the drawing-room, if he would be pleased to walk that way; and thither accord- | ingly he directed his steps. As he entered, a tail fair girl ot about twenty-two rose trom her seat | at the far end of the room, where she had been reading, and advanced to meet him. ‘She was very different from his anticipations, he thought, as he shook hands with her. This was certainly not the common. insignificant- looking girl he had prepared himself to see. On the contrary, she was infinitely more ladylik both in her appearance and manner, than many of the aristocratic friends he had left in London, and she had one of the sweetest faceshe thought he had ever seen. With easy grace she bade him welcome to the house, excusing her father's absence as a matter of necessity, and then she | her seat and they entered into conver- Instinetively during It all Henniker it that her clear, brown eyes werescrutinizing him closely, that she was, as it were, summing him up and making a mental estimate of his people: in the neighborhood of the Midlands iow good and unselfish he was. But, more than all, he had been it into close contact with the man himself, and he had had time and opportunity to become ited with his dis- position, and to mark the many little ways in which his generosity and true nobility of charac- ter showed themselves. The result was a total revulsion of feeling towards Mr. Maitland al- most 3 complete as that towards his daughter. It was the evening before Whit-Sunday, the time about 6. Henniker, who had been out rid- | ing, went to the drawing-room, not e: ting to find any one there, for Lily had driven into the town to make some purchases and he hard- ly tancied she cuuld have returned yet. He was mistaken, however, for she was seated before the fire and in so deep a reverie that he had to speak to her before she became aware of his presence. ° “Yourthoughts seem to be pleasant ones, Miss Maitland, if one may judge from the expression of your face,” he said as he took aseat near her. She started violently and a hot color stole into her cheeks. Henniker wondered why she should bush so much at such apparently innocent words. a It was but momentary, however, and when the flush dled away it seemed to leave her face paler than usual. “Thoughts at Whitsuntide ought to be pleas- ant. Mr. Henniker,” sheaid; ‘but I don’t know that mine were particularly happy. Did you enjoy your ride?” “Very much. Sam, as I think you call him, carried me splendidly, and Ihad no idea the country about Manchester was so interesting. It is really very pretty out beyond Cheadle.” “Tam glad you liked it; you will, at any rate, have one pleasant remembrance of Manchester to carry away with you.” There was something in the tone in which she said this—something halfsad and reproachtul— | that caused Henniker to lose his head. “There is one remembrance that will always ee reece aly dear to me,” he said, in a low voice. The moment he had spoken he felt that he had betrayed himself. There was no turning back now; come what might, he must go on. A choking sensation rose in his throat, but le reso- lutely forced it back, and steeled himself for the coming ordeal. The flush again rose to hercheek. It was im- possible to mistake his meaning. .For a moment what he would have construed as almost a happy look came over her face; but it passed | away quickly, and her features grew hard and set. “T hardly understand you,” she said nervously; | and he noticed that, despite her efforts to re- | main composed, the hand nearest him was trembling violently. “The dearest remembrance I ahall have when I leave Manchester will be of yourself,” he said. ye: sees! intended to make this avowal so soon, Miss Maitland, but now that circumstances have led up to it, It'would simply be cowardice if did not speak plainly. I love you! I know that this is great presumption on my part, and that I am not half worthy of you, but indeed I couldn't help myself. It was Impossible to be in the same house with you without loving you. Oh, my darling, if you only knew how much I love you, how passionately, since I came here, Thave hnng upon every tbakand! every smile you hava given me, surely your heart would come cut to meas my heart has gone out to you! ll youtry to Jove me, Lily?

Fora moment she permitted it to remain there unresistingly, while her whole woman's nature seemed to respond to his appeal; then, with a sudden effort, ahe drew herself away and Tose to her feet. “No, [will not be your wife!” she said, with flashing eyesand quivering mouth. “Mr. Hen- niker, you came here despising us poor Man- chester people.

The butler came in presently to show Han- !

He answered that he should be only too , and they at once sallied out together. Going along she gave him little descriptions of the neighborhood, showed him her canine pets, the horses, et cetera, and did her best to entertain him. ‘Henniker found himself listen- ing in a way that he could hardly have believed possible. The girl had a wonderfully attractive | manner. She was so easy and unaffected, so thoroughly unconscious that she was beautiful and stylish, so different from the parrot-girls of | society whom he had previously met, and yet so completely their equal In the flner attributes of good society, in grace and refinement, with ten- fold more depth of character and cultivation, that Henniker enjoyed his walk as he had never enjoyed any walk before. He almost forgot that his companion was only an uncultivated cotton- | spinner’s daughter. It was about 5 o'clock when they liad fnishea their rounds and tea was served in the drawing- room. Henniker was surprised. It seemed | th these Manchester people lived like other and were as well-bred in their habits es | the friends he had left in London. At dinner, | too, there was none of that georgeous display | of plate that he had been led to expect. Every- conducted quietly and unostents Maitland, perliaps, to those who was the blot upon the scene. he had, by dint of steady industry and unwearying perseverance, raised himself to his | present position among the most hondted of Manchester merchants: but, unlike the majority of men who lave risen solely through their own exertions, success had not made him arro- gant and seif-assertive, nor was he in the habit of boasting of his achievement. He knew that, comparatively speaking, he was an ignorant man and he was not ashamed to own it; but he never did so obtrust¥ely. Kind to a fault, always willing to assist any one in distress, in- nocent as a child in many of the world’s ways, wearing his heart upon his sleeve,and as un- affected as the day on which he was born, Wal- ter Maitland, to those who knew him, wasa man to respect; to honor, and to love. Unfortunately Frank Henniker did not know him, and he was obliged to Judge him by out- ward appearance. He felt strongly that this who laughed so loudly and so heartily at his own jokes, who often dropped his “h's” and mispronounced his words, was a very vulgar being. Henniker had been brought up in an exclusive set, with whom faults of breeding were Iniquities that could never be atoned for, even by the best qualities of disposition. At inner, unconsciously to himself, he could not elp showing the direction in which his thoughts However, it paased off very well, and Mr. Maitland did not perceive that his guest was a trifle offended, not to say disgusted, with his ways. But once or twice Henniker caught the her face which he could not understand. It puzzied him. After dinn in the drawing-room, she sang ; and again Henniker was thrown state of wonderment. Such a thrilling » touching in its tender pathos, he had never b It entranced him, and he remained fascinated by the piano all the time that she was singing. But when he showed symptoms of the great lelight that he felt Miss Maitland at once rose from her seat, and rather coldly refused to sing any more. Henniker’s thoughts, as he sat in his bed-room that night, were anything but pleasant. Above everything he felt thoroughly angry and diseat- istied with himself. He had acted, it seemed to him, very like a fool. He had come from Lon- don full of self-conceit, complacently satisfied that the people he was going to see were an in- ferior order of creation to himself, quite an in- ferior rate of beings, living in a common under- bred way that to a man of cultivated tastes would be most objectionable; and here he found. them every bit as refined in their habits as him- self, and with none of that ostentatious display which he had so.confidently expected. It was really most mortifying. Then there was the daughter. He had actu- ally thought of this girl ss if he would be con- ferring a favor on her by asking her to marry him! ‘The fact was that Henniker was as much in love with Lily Maitland as it is possible fora young fellow to be in love with a girl after only eight hours’ acquaintance.

The subject had better be dropped between us.” In‘another minute she had swiftly, but none too steadily, ascended the stairs, and was lying on her bed, her face pressed into the bedelothes, sobbing as if her heart would break. Only a woman after all! * * © «© « * Whit-Sunday that year wasa glorions day. All nature seemed at her brightest. Mr. Maitland, Henniker and Lily went to church. . Coming back, the merchant Joined a iriend, and Henniker ‘and Lily were perforce thrown together. He had seen very little of her since the affair of the previous evening. When they had met she was shy and constrained. In church he had once or twice cast quiet glances at her— * , indeed his thoughts were far more occupied with the pretty figure dressed in black at his side than with the service; but her eyes at such times were always downeast, and her attention seemed wholly riveted on her prayer book. Henniker was terribly dejected, and he looked quite pale and haggard. He felt that he could endure this torture no longer. To be in the same house with this girl whom he loved with allthe strength and ardeney of a particularly strong nature, to feel the constant charm and attraction ot her presence, to know that she was not nor ever could be his, and to realize that it was entirely through his own fault that he had a trifle vulvar.

Iwill speak frankly to you, Miss Maitland. I did come down to Manchester with the views you describe, and I was an ignorant man in doing so—far more ignorant than the very ple whom I despised. I did not think your father well educated or well bred; but I see now how wrong I was to judge a man by a few exter- nal characteristics, for [ have discovered that he possesses a true nobility of disposition before which I, with my small narrow mind, ought to blush. fam all the better for having known your father, Miss Maitland; and I have received @ much-needed lesson that I hope I shall never forget.

After to-day I shall never see you again; but, at any rate, I shall have the consolation of titinking that there was no deception between us. When I came to Manchester I did so with a purpose—I came to marry you.” “To marry me!” she exclaimed, startled out of her silence by surprise. Yea, to marry you.” “But you had never seen me.” “Tknow that; but I had heard of you. I knew that you: were wealthy. or rather that your father was. I was pvor and unfortunate— ruin was staring me in the face. I determined to come to Manchester. and, if possible, to marry Sg to relieve myself from my debts. But be- fore I had been twenty-four hours in the house circumstances alte my case. I was now really, honestly in love with you.

I could not bear to from you—I was power- less. I dare say, Miss Maitland, you think all I have said the mere emotional talk of a man of the world, accomplished in such matters; but, fortunately for me, I have the means of con- vineing you of the sincerity of my words.

B. F, Butler, had crossed the Atlantic from New York to contest the honors of the day with the crack English wave-splitters, At the sinal the white winged vessels sailed away, and then hours passed. Finally the expectant crowd saw the fleet re- turning—one yacht being conspicuously in advance of all the rest. It was an exciting moment. One of the Judges peered intently at her through a big spy-glass. “Who'sahead?” shouted s bystander. “The America!” “Who's next?” “Nobody.” ‘The question was settled.
