must be said that he was in ignorance
Of this fact.
SIX months after her child was born,

three months old the rumor, seeming

open it, thinking it was mine, when,
instead, her husband stood upon the
threshold!
He had returned, repentant and sue

the happy future which might be IN
store for him. at her feet he prayed
for forgiveness, until, fearful 1 would

Why. it was worn as thin as her own
and when she first saw her own face IN
the glass, the great hollow IN the pale
cheeks he used to praise for their
plumpness and bloom, and saw in the
place of the luxurlant brown tresses he
was so proud Of, the boys shock OF
curly brown hair, and threw herself
weeping or her pillow, sobbing, how
could he-could he love her now? how
tenderly he took her IN his arms, LAID
her head on his breast, and kissed the
shorn locks and sunken cheeks. And,
though she lived to be old and gray,
could she ever forget bis words?
MY dear one, my wife, lam so
thankful that 1 hold you here on this
heart. where at one time 1 feared you

marriage? No, she cannot take that.
And her wedding ring. a bracelet he
gave her. Yes, that must be left with
the rest. oh! she had not dreamed it
would be so hard 10 part with the old
love tokens. Even the despised Leila
is caught up and kissed and cried over.
And-what was she about 10 do? Yes,
she wos actually going to kiss the little
white tidy on the back OF the sleepy
hollow where Charlie's head rested

morning) what will he say? VIII he
