its own reward. My love! 1 aoiH moi

Madeleine struggled to free herself
from his embrace.

"Phillip, let me go! 1 thought bet
ter of myself and you than that this
would ever be; from the moment l saw
you, there was sin and treason in my
heart. Philip, leave me, and let me
think; am tortured and half crazy
Philip! Philip! let me go!"
Madeleine wrenched her hand from
his grasp and opened wide the door OF
the room. Unconscious of Cecile's pres
ence, she fled past her into the little
dressing-room beyond.
Cecile, whose bonnet and shawl had
not been removed, waited few mo.
ments, and then followed her to her re-
treat, as though she had but just come
in. But Madeleine caught the deadly
pallor of her sisters face, and cried out
"Cecile, what has happenedP Are
you ill?-you look like death! Some
thing is the matter; what is it?''
az am tired, Maddie," said Cecile,
in low, wistful tone, as utterly differ
ent from her ringing cadences as was
this ashen-hued, lifeless face from the
sun-bright and glowing cheeks that
made half of her brilliant beauty
Madeleine was MISREPRESENTATION, but
she asked no further question, judging
all too truly that her treachery had
been discovered. --. ~
Two or three days passed away, and
each, conscious of 7concealment, grew
more constrained in the vain effort to
Danish constraint. Cecile was i'll bodi-
ly; her cheeks paled, her eyes grew
hollow and dim, and beneath them a
purple shadow bore witness to her pain
and weary thinking. Philip had not
been to the house since that evening,
nor had there been any remembrance
from him.
