With a long-arawn whistle, the train boomed from the in with | & rushing { of escaning the great W come to a &tand, people hurried alorg the platiorm to their cars, b Y- g k- the gage vans cre ed through | crowds, the train with an order, some one took it from hLim and dashed up to the stenogra- pher's oflice; her chair was vacant, her machine with a half-finished let- ter still between its rubber rollers, i awatted her re- turn. Morning after morning, week | atter week, and |month after month she had listened to that wild,exultant cry of the monster as it rushed in with its human tre!ght. On a clear morning its shout: “I come—from the sea—the sea—the sea; I come from the sea—come from the s-e-a!” brought the roar of the breakers dashing against the cliffs. To the girl listening with a strained expression on the pale face, its cry was threatening, accusing, pleading, and as the last echoes died away, they were drowned by the cry of a bhuman soul in mortal fear. She saw him again, standing beside her on the rear platform of this same train, a bored expression on the handsome face above her, heard his voice as in an awful sickening dream: “Surely you must have understood that it was impossible, such a mar | riags now would ruin my prospects | forever.” | “But you promised, you promised.” “Yes, as many a fellow has prome {sed in an idle summer, lured by the scent of honeysuckle, a pair of beau- tiful eyes and a splendid August moon.” “But you must, you must. I am not the only one to be considered; there fs another—another life to be consid- ered.” “The devil there 18! And you think {t possible for me to marry you after this? Why, two months from this very day I am to marry my cousin. | But I did not dream it had come to this, Here, take this and let me know when it s gone.” | The bills fluttered from her nerve- were caught Wt y moving nd ar train | whirled away.

Afterward there | had been nothing to kecp her, and waiting only until the grass was green on the little grave, she had left | the old home, the little she had learned of stenography was brushed up, and when fate placed the chance of a clerkship in the superintendent's oflice in her way. Each morning whe. her day's work began the prayer hac gone up: “Don't [ let it come today, God—oh, not to- | day! Give me strength to bear it, | for It 1 go away I can never come back. Give me streapgth, until it is over. You ‘Thongh your sins be shall be white as snow.’ wash them away.” the struggle had grown stronger.
