LOVE AFTER MARRIAGE,
BY MARY W. S. gibson.

: No wooing had preceded the mar
riage. 1t was merely marriage d.
conrenance-both parties understood
and regarded it So. at was not they
that were married, but the broad
lands and fertile estates Of their pa
rents. Strange that any man, and
much more, any woman, could stool
to so false an act But Hugh Gran
olson might and would have loved
his beautiful bride, had it not been
for the stately GOODNESS other demea-
nor; he had been nnsoifed by contact
! with the world, and longed for hap
piness and a home. !. Alice Charlton
cared little for: either, and still less
for him. In her first girlhood she
had plighted her faith, to one whe
left her for a time, and died in far
off land Of gold died before one
word or message could be sent to hen
he loved-died alone and was buried
where her tears could never moisteu
the turf ON his breast. -. : ...,.,
They told the tidin53 to Alice, little
dreaming that the lonely ADVENTURE
had been aught'to her. She was in
her wntelegant home, surrounded by
q brilliant circle of guests, while
Hugh Grandson leaned over her chair
and bent his admiring eyes on her
queenly face and form. She heard
the speaker through; the rich color
died slowly out of her cheeks, leaving
her white and stern; her lips shut
firmly, as if to repress shrek of ag-
ony;. her large dark eyes wandered
round the group with gaze OF pas
sionate despair. The wandering looks
j=of all around recalled her to herself,
and making a graceful apology tor
her sudden abstraction, she played
her part so successfully, that no one
guessed the secret she guarded with
Spartan-like firmness. i
Not till she was alone in her cham:
Der, did the storm burst forth. She
mourned as she loved, most deeply
and passionately, but to the world
she seemed unmoved. A little col,
der, little laughter, a little more
impatient Of out-spoken admiration
and love, she seemed; but feeling was
Questionable in her exclusive circle,
and none knew, or cared, to know,
that the heart beating within her
breast was one Of stone. n 4
A year passed away. The father
Of Alice, seeing that she was in nc
! way inclined to choose one from her
!. many lovers, chose for her, and selec+
