The roses faded from her cheeks as the
days went by and she had no one to love and
caress her. She had no mother to whom she
could 90 to find sympathy. She was an or
phan, without brother or sister. She boarded
with her aunt, but though she was kind, she
had children of her own upon whom to lavish
her affection.
Years passed by, and Anna had left the
blooming days of eighteen to wander in the
lonely path Of thirty. She had grown quiet
and sad, her eyes had look of weariness in
them. Her lips were still scarlet and beau
tiful, but a look Of hrnuess had settled about
them. Her cousin Matte was as fair and
beautiful as she had been at eighteen, and
her silyery voice was ever full Of happiness
aud merriment.
1t was at the close of beautiful juno
day that Anna and her beautiful cousin sat in
tho doorway where twelve years before she
had hidden farewell to her lover. Matte in
her white muslin dress, with the pink rose
buds in her shining curls and ON her bosom,
looked more like the young girl that chung 50
tenderly TO the neck Of Edward Dayton, than
did the pale, quiet woman who sat beside
her. Anna was thinking of that when a
ringing step was heard in the lane, and soon
Edward Dayton himself stood before them.
He had grown handsome in the years of their
separation but his eye had in it that same
tender expression, and about his mouth how
cred the olden smile.
With cry of gladness, Anna sprang to-
wards him, but she remembered how sadly she
must have changed, and wished her beau tiful
cousin was not there, bu. she might as well
not have been there for all Edward DAYTON
seemed TO notice her. His eyes we're upon
the face of his loved one he seemed to notice
no change, and indeed there was much less to
notice than before he clasped her hand. The
olden light came back TO her eyes, and fbe
color to her cheek, while the wind blew her
unbound hair about her face, and she looked
much like the Anna he had loved Of yore.
Matte left them alone, and Edward said,
softly:
" Anna, in all the long years which have
passed since we parted, my heart has never
changed, and love you tonight as / loved
you twelve years ago when we parted. VIII
you send me away from you again 2"
Her arms were twined about his neck. aud
again she sObbed' this time in JOY, upon his
shoulder.
Edward" she said, at last, lookinc'into
his face with her eyes full Of happy tears,
Edward, never loved truly any one but
you, and no woman ever loved more deeply
than Iowa you now
Closely he clasped her to his heart, and
kissed away her tears, and when the stars
came out they shone upon two as haunv
hearts as ever beat beneath the sky.
