SAY THAT YOU FORGIVE Me.

SAY THAT YOU FORGlN L ME.
On the following day, again early in
the morning, Mrs. Treyelyan and Stan
bury were driven ont 10 Casaiunga. The
country people along the road knew the
carriage well, and the lady who Occu-
pied it, and would say that the Eng
lish wife was going to see her mad hus-
band. MIS-. Trevelyan knew that these
words were common in the peoples
months and explained to her companion
how necessary it would DO TO use these
rumOTs, TO aid her in putting some re-
stTaiut over her husband even i'll this
country should they fail in their effort TO
take him TO England. She saw the
doctor il SIena constantly, ana had
learned from him how such steps might
be taken. The measure proposed would
be slow, difficult, inefficient, and very
hard to set aside, if once taken; but
still it might be indispensable that some
ching should be done. ole would be so
much worse off here than he would be
at home" she said;-"if we could only
make him understand that it would be
sO.' Then Stanbury asked about the
wine. 1t seemed that of late Trevelyao
had taken to drink freely, but only of
the wine of the country. But the wine
of the country in these parts is sufficient
ly stimulating, and Mrs. Trevelyan &C
knowledged that hence had arisen a
further cause of fear.
They walked up the hill together, and
Mrs. Treyeiyau, Low well knowing the
ways OF the place, went round 1T once
to the front terrace. There he was,
seated in hrsa chair, dressed in the
same way as yesterday, dirty ,dishoyelleG,
and gaudy, with various colors; but
Staubury CoulG see at once that his
mood had greatly changed. He rose
slowly, dragging himself up out of his
chair, as they came up to him, but show
ing as he did so-and perhaps somewhat
assumiug-the inpotency of Querulous
sickness, His wife went to him, and
took him by the hand, aud placed him
back in his chair. He was weak, he said,
and had not slept. and suffered from the
heat; and then he begged her to give
him wine. This she did, half filling for
him tumbler, of which he swallowed
the contents greedily. You see me very
poorly, Stanbury-very poorly he said,
seeming to ignore ali that had taken
place on the previous day.
you want change of climate old tel
low" said Stanbury.
Change ofeverything, Iwant change
OF everything" he said. "If could
have a new body, and a new mind, and
anew SOUL"
The mind aud soul, dear, will do we'll
enough, if you will let us look after the
body" said his wife, seating herself on
stool near his feet. Stanbury, who
had settled beforehand how he would
conduct himself, took out cigar and
lighted it; and then they sat together
silent, or nearly silent, for half an hour
She had said that if Hugh would do so,
Trevelyan would soon become used to
the presence of his old friend, and it
seemed that he had already done so.
More than once, when he eopghed, his
wife fetched him some drink in cup,
which he took from her without werd.
And Stanhury the while went on smok'
ing in silence.
"You have heard, Louis" she said'as
last shat, after all, Nora and Mr.. Stan
bury are going to be married I"
''Ahl yes; think was told of it. l
hope You may be happy, Stanbury-hap-
pier than have beeu."' This was I'M
fortunate, but neither of the visitors
