 "Do you love me, Reginald?"
 The supper in connection with the fete champetre given by Stuyvesant McGuire in honor of the nineteenth birthday of his only child was over, and the spacious parlers were filled with the younger portion of the as- semblage, by which they had quickly been devoted to the worship of Terp- sichore. Reginald Mulcahey and Aproditc McGuire had been gliding through the soft, sensuous measures of Strauss waltz, and as the music ceased they had strolled into the dimly lighted conservatory, where, as they sat with clasped hands, her pure, sweet face looking lovingly Tn. to his, the question with which our story opens had been asked.
 "Do I love you, my little one?" re- sponded Reginald, as he imprinted a large Eighteenth ward kiss on the ruby-red lips that overhung the dropping sensitive mouth. "Your heart, that ever unerring and ever vigilant monitor of the soul, must tell you in words far plainer than any utterance of mine that without the inspiration of your love my life would be as dreary and aimless as the editorials in Cleveland paper, and the days drift wearily by without one gleam of light to brighten the dreary horizon of my existence. You surely cam t but know, Aphro- dite, that before 1 knew you was a wild, reckless man, and that when your love burst over my scared soul d sweet joy stole over my being "a sense of cal peaceful rest, such the storm tossed mariner feels when the glad sunlight comes in golden glory through a rift in the leaden clouds that have so long o'erspread the horizon and looked upon the wind. d.swept sea in sullen glee, or comes to the belated traveller when the soft, mellow light of the unex- pectedly-open saloon burst upon his enraptured vision. My love for you and the knowledge that it is return ed has given me an aim in life-an aim, may say, with large A. With your bright face as beacon light, my course shall be as un. swerving as that of the majestic and eternal sun, whose fervid rays are even now kissing the limpid waters of the Pacific.
 "Say no more," said Aphrodite. "I believe you fully"
