Tomorrow it may be calm enough, but today It suits my mood, and I love it. “The orchestra {8 playing the “Trau- merei”—oh, dad, those days in Flor ence come back and I dream such dear idle dreams!

I read a long while, until the place was quite deserted except for this stranger who had his back to me. Suddenly, he throw down his book, walked over to the window and began to speak, evidently supposing himself quite alone. At the first sound of his voice I kept very still in my chalr. ‘What will it all come to? I heard bhim say. ‘I have done all I could, but even for her dear sake I cannot pinrry another woman. In Heaven's pamne why should I? It would all be @ damnable lie from beginning to end, ! there would be no peace here nor hereafter. Ah, Jean, Jean, it I had never looked into your great, soulful eyes, if my arms had never held you close, it might have been, but now— never! You sald you would not marry a man who had idly won another womans’ heart. You meant to do right, little girl, but you did not know how despicably deceitful she was, and I can never tell you.' . “It was then that my purse dropped loudly to the floor. With an angry exclamation he stooped to pick it up for me, not looking at my face, but as he handed it to me, I held his hand fast, and oh, dad, if you'd seen his eyes when he looked and saw it was I He started to take me in his arms, but, remembering our parting, he straightened himself up and begged my pardon, said he supposed 1 knew bhe had not done what I sent him to do, and then said he would leave. I counldn't stand that, dad, so I just asked him if he badn’'t been away ' long enough—you can guess what his answer was! “P. 8.
