the more pure rccocctions they sent into her SOUL
the easier was ii for her. The light of love was
kndcd in her, and that made her clear-sghted
in many directions She saw what II was right
for her 10 do respecting her novel, and this reve
ation warmed her heart. She knew also that
this was the only one she should ever write, and
that her husband should never again miss her from
the tca-tahlr and therefore be obliged to drink lns
tea at the club lbut he should be reconced with
the sinner the novel y and she would, moreover,
prepare dinner for the Coonel's lady, which
should compensate for the unlucky one OF ths
day and. Would that Ernst would but come
home soon, thought she; g would cndeavor to
Danish all his dspleasurc, and make all night be

1t was the bathing day of the children, and the
message that the hour of bathing was come inter
rupcd Elise's solitude She ordered Brlgltta to
commence her preparations and when she mad
somewhat composed herself, and washed away
the traces of her tears with rosc-water she her
self went down into the chamber.
':What a blessing is watcr"! thought Elise, at
the first view of the scene which presented Itself.
The soft glowing young forms in the clear warm
water. the ulmmerng of the open fire, the splash
inr and jubileeing of the children in their un-
| spcakablc comfort. their innocent sport one with

which they had no fear Of raising stormy waves;
nay, even Brigittas happy face, under her white
cap her lively activity amid the continual
phrases of best beloved ;" 8. little alabaser arm"
. aabastcr foot" lily BOSOM and such like,
while over the lly-while bosom. and the alabaster
arm, she spread soap-foam scarcely less white, or
wrapped them in snowy cloths, out OF which
nothing but little. lively, glowing, merry faces
pecped and played with one another at bopccp-
all, united to present picture full OF HE and
pleasure.
Poor Elise, however. could not fully enjoy it;
the thought of what had Just occurred longlngs
for reconciliation with her husband, fear that he
might remain out too long, that he might return
too much displcased for her easily to make all
straight again-lhcsc thoughts occupied hermmd;
vet still she could not help smiling as Gabrielle,
who had sunk down in the bath alone, exclaimed,
almost beside herself for fright, | am drowning
| am drowning" In order 20 rc-assure her, her
mother stretched ont her white hands to her, and
under their protection she laughed and splashed
about like little fish in wafer.
A shower OF flowers strcamcd suddenly over
both mother and child, and Gabrielle screamed
aloud for ov, and stretched forth her little arms
to catch gilly-tlowcrs, roses and carnations, which
fell upon and around her. Elise turned herself
round in surprise. and her surprise changed Itself
into the most delightful sensation of Joy, as the
lips OF her husband were pressed to her forehead.
:. All. vou" exclaimed Elise, and threw her
arms round his neck, and caressIngIy stroked his
check.
. shall get wet through with all this SAID
he. laughing, vet without leaving the bath, nay,
he even stopped down his head to little t'abrlse,
kissed her, and allowed her to splash him with
water.
.Thank God all Is right again ana perhaps
ii will be best 10 take no farther notice OF tins I'M
pleasant affair" thought she. and prepared TO
follow her husband into the parlor.
The JUDGE had, probably. during his bad tea
al the cluh, listened to the invisible speakers as
we'll as his wife. the consequence whereof was
his visit TO the bathing room and the shower OF
flowers from the nosegav he had brought with
him for her. and the kiss Of reconciliation winch
ctiaced every thoughtcss and woundlng word.
He felt now quite pleased that every thing was
az il should be, and that the gentle and welding
temper of his wife would require nothing farther.
But perhaps, on tat very account, he was dis
satisfied with himself. and, therefore ieit neccs-
sity 10 pronounce one word-one word, winch IL
is 50 hard for the lips OF a man TO pronounce, YET
which Ernst Frank was too manly, too iirn, 10
/ Shun.
When. therefore. his wife entered he offered her
! his hand Forgive me- Elise, said he, with the
deepest feeling have behaved severely, nay
absurdly to-day!
.oh. forgive me, Ernst :, said Elise, deeply
affected while she pressed his hand 10 her heart.
