his eyes as he lay there, perhaps to sleep,
perhaps to shut out the sight of the
woman he loved rejoicing over the deceit
that he had practiced upon her.
But what was this? All, what? What
were these soft arms round his neck, this
velvet check on his, this sweet voice
murmuring in his ear, this gay, light
hearted laugh, these sudden tears
Wake up-wake up, my darling!" his
wife was crying didn't I tell YOU I
had such a deli ghtful plan before I lost
| the key to the safe? Didn't I hear you
| talking in your sleep, and saving YOU
were to be ruined for the want of $780,
| VOO? See here, my dear husband! Here
is 100000 in this little case, and it is all
yours, and you needn't feel badly about
| taking it, for always kept the Jewels as
if you lent them, and if they help you in
your trouble they will give me more
pleasure than they ever did bcfore!"
Mr.. Rothely sat up in bed, pushing
back the case, and staring straight before
him with wild eyes. "Oh, you think
only care for gayety and glittcr!" she
cried. You think it is too great a sac
rificc for me to make. But indeed, in
decd'-and here, with both arms about
him, and her face hidden in his breast
she broke out in fresh flood of sweet
glad tcars-"1 never dared tell you, you
never seemed to want me to tell you, but
indeed had rather be-if only you arc
pleased on, never was SO happy in
my life! And you will take them?''
Was he dreaming? Was he here in his
own bed, in his own house, awake? Oh,
had he perjured his soul for this! Had
he believed his wife to be so small in or
der that she might destroy him with her
greatness? Had he stolen her Jewels that
he might receive from her the free gift
| OF. these bits of colored glass? Mus the
all his life carry round with him the
shame and memory of a crimc-of Il
crime, too, that was so useless? He drew
away from her, shuddering; and then, as
she still clasped him, he folded his arms
about her, and the tears that he was
weeping were different tears from hers
were tears salt as the salt with which the
desert is sowcd
We'll, that was years ago. MI. Rothcly
took the casket his wife had pressed upon
him and burned it in his office fire, case
| and gold and all. The world has pros
pered with him since then, and he has
replaced Mrs. Rothcly's cmeralds with
those which are much more magnificent
than the original But though now he
knows how firmly his wife believes in
him, knows that he need want no more
for sympathy and comfort, yet he feels
| that he purchased that knowledge at Il
price too dear. He cannot bear to see
her put her jewels on, for every ray of
their light is like a needle pricking the
sore spot in his heart; and he never has
said another syllable about the words he
wants written on his gravestone. And
sometimes at night, when Mrs. Rothely
is in her happy dreams, and Mr.. Rothely
sits lingering by his dressing-room fire,
the skeleton that slips into the opposite
seat makes him hide his face before it,
and wish he had never seen the light and
yet it is only the image of himself as he
has seen himself to be-Unrper's Bnzdy

Through the vast void of nature hurled,
And shook their shrinking hearts, ut first,
