JOCKS WIFE.
CONCLUDED.

HOH, RICHARD, you have far more
" need of wife when you are
poor and blind: could keep school
and you could help me; you could be no
end of help. Think of it,"
1 don't understand it," he said.-
"You were quite ready and willing to
part with me because some person told
you foolish story; you surely could
not have loved me then ?"
" 1 thought / should have died."
elf L had known or suspected it,
Lizzie, 1 would not have let you go, but
was poor, and believed your love
would not stand the strain of poverty
and your readiness to break the engage
ment made nae sure of it. But now Pm
what's called rising artist, and besides,
had legacy lately so if"
c. Do you mean to say that the blind
ness and the tea is all a sham ?" eX-
claimed Lizzie, starting from her chair.
" You made the blindness: L never
spoke of it"
You said your sight was getting
dim."
$50 it was at the moment, but my
handkerchief could have cleared it. L
own to the tea, and it has served my
purpose. wanted to judge if you cared
for me at all, and how much"
cit was a foolish trick-cruel and un-
worthy of you"
"Not cruel, surely"
/" Yes, cruel and unjustifiable. What
will my friends think ?-that you are a
romantic fool and they are sufficiently
angry and embittered against you al
ready"
Let them think me fool don't
object"
But L object; they must know
nothing of this tea business. L mean
my father and John and Nelly, and,
above all, Jock"
"Who is Jock ?"
"My brother, whom dearly love and
who loves me but he is awfully wise
and prudent, and could not do a foolish
thing if you were to pay him for it. If
he heard of the tea-trick,I don't know
what he would think-not that you
were fit to be his brother-in-law, am
sure.''
"Well, what am 1 to do? where
or when am to turn up in my own
colors ?"
'I can't tell it's like dream. Have
you had your bread and milk ? Hebe
said you ate like famished crea-
ture.''
"Hebe that's classic. When man
is hungry and has good food placed be-
fore him, he would be greater fool
than even am if he didn't seize the op-
portunity. L had been out sketching
since early morning. Is Hebe that girls
name? made sketch of her when
went inn
. E" We have got into the way of calling
her that it was impossible to call a
creature like her Janet always"
" Does Jock not think it silly 2"
g Most likely he does nobody can see
any attraction in her but myself"
81 did. Did she not tell you asked
her to stand for her picture ?"
"No; she would not know what you
meant. l should like to see her in a
picture"
Il think I'll call on your father to-
night, y said Mr. King.
'This is Monday" she said; "let it
be Thursday. He'll be from home to-
morrow and Wednesday. I'll give aunt
the tea; what am to charge for it I? 1
believe you bought it coming through
the village ?"
''Yes, did. Oh, make her present
oft say always give my customers a
sample free"
