tion; Harry Denning viii never call on
1ne bot once moren
He stopped and looked at me in mute
surprise, drew a card from my card case,
aud gave It to hia He turned very pale
as be read the name "Mary |" be said.
Yes, Mary, ] answered, with tears in
my eyes, only not Mary Dean, but Mary
Dslr5mple. Dear Frank, forgive me, and
let me tell you all"
did tell him ALL drawing him away to
4 duieter street where could repeat the
tale Of my folly and its sweet punishment
fo no listening ears but his; and then, hav-
ing received full ablution, took him home
to nv grandmother, and telling her the Sc
uuel Of ms adventure, introduced him as
her fature grS2dson, to her great delight.
The dear old lady ha1 always been rather
fistrnstfnl Of the FIRST pretender to that po-
sition. bnt she loves Frank aa dearly as she
does Ino. and has forgiven me all my former
folties, for the sake Of the success Of my
last and greatest.
That same day Harry Denning came to
see nc. Yes, my own identical Harry, my
sance, aud my horror; elegant, perfumed,
slender, facinating, handsome, courteous,
tender, the same as ever; bat yet not the
same. Fer nov with me shadows had be-
come realities, and idle dreams were deep
truths For the sake of my own vanity
and his, did not tell him the reason Of
my sudden disenchantment, which was ma
trralIy 4 great shock to him, as he expect
ed ia take up the broken bread of cur AZ
taehmens exactly where it left of when be
feth / too, though be didn't know il, took
that fatal journey. He mourned my deci-
sion and change of sentiments with becom-
ine sorrow, and considered himself very III
used. believe be thinks, like every one
else but Emma Sherhurn, that spent the
dfeary time Of his absence in L--; aud
met there Frank Chester; who stopped on
bis way back to make solke inquiries about
the Deaa family. He pities me, doubt
rot. aud believes that ] must often have
bitterly regretted my rash refusal of so
nanch beauty and elegance.
/ ana the happiest woman in the world,
I verify believe. An heiress not married
for her wealth. belle not married for
beauty, rank, or position. for nothing. il
not for love. Not that despise wealth,
for an very glad that by its means can
help nv husband on in his profession, and
snare him the toll aud struggle, by which
be would have supported the poor girl he
meant TO marry. Although no merit of
mine, it Is . constant joy TO me to know,
that could smooth bis path in becoming,
what be is already called, one Of the first
men In lis profession; that could thus do
litflc for hiEs who did so much for me,
and lates me 50 entirely.
OF course / went TO Emma Sherburn
immediately, and told her the whole story;
she was delighted.
Oa, how romauticl bow delicious y

That's the way with men; they tolerate in
