Where was the reserved and maidenly
companion OF a moment since. with her
chaste cameo face and corresponding fin
gerss This was young Lamia, full Of
all sensuous longing, open and uneon-
cealed. Edward Lamb sprang to his feet
and, Whlrl1ng toward the fire. tore from
his bosom letter he had hidden there.
All day it had burned there in his breast,
full of its own admonition.
i would have put it in her hands," he
told himself between the muffied plunges
OF his heart, shut now there is no need.
Her own speech has taught me what she

the cedar logs, with a very storm of pas

lie turned reluctant eyes on Madel0n
soulsby, afraid and ashamed; and behold,
she sat, unconscious and composed as
some young saint, her grave brow serious
and calm, her delicate hands folded, al
most as If for prayer. Had Mr.. Lamb
come very near making mistake?
Does man live who can battle with
temptation and overcome it, and then
abandon the field without further dalli-
ance with evil? Is it that we like to
parade our power and make show of our
strength?
"What little creature you are!" SAID
Edward Lamb. 'sHow tall definitely :
Stand up and let me see."
He put out his hand as if to raise her
from the chair, but drew back short Of her
hnger-ups. For his life he dared not now
presume by SO much as that slight touch.
she stood up simply as a child.
What was it that Orlando said about
his lady's stature 20
just as high as my heart ''-she
barely breathed the words, yet with ex-
quisite tenderness, inclining her head
with movement unspeakably sweet and
shy, until her cheek bent Just above his
tnrobbing heart, yet quite apart from
him.
But before her hair was stirred by the
sigh from his dropping lips, she sprang
back like creature at bay, her brow knit
in a frown, her eyes blazing indignation
and reproach.
GLOW dare you?7 she cried. 'eWhat a
pitiful pretext! How ingenious! How
full of cOuragep'
What wonder that the fair Irishman
blushed for his own poor ruse to bring her
near him for a moment! Was this acting:
Had she only affected just now to discover
his motive? Was his ardOr answered by
wild rapture in her own undisciplined
heart? Or was she like some fair saint,
far above the comprehension of earthly
passions? Could she have used ignorantly
the dangerous phraseology of evil, as a
child might play unwittingly with engines
of destruction-each innocently vain Of its
fancied knowledge?
''Come imp Miss Soulsby's sweet voice
followed knock at the door.
Mr.. Lambs associate came into the
room.
'Ledyard telegraphs that the line is
open now and a party is starting out.
You have not moment to spare. No one
knows how long we may be shut in here,
once the spring thaws set in.''
And so, before the curious scrutiny of
this observer, they closed the day and
babe each other but formal adieu.

To THE EDITOR OF THE REPUBLICAN JOURNAL.
In your issue Of July 3rd inst. was a letter under
the heading of the "Amendment Campaign" The
writer of that letter. Herbert Morey, of Waldo,
either did not know the object of the meeting, or
chose to place the Lodge and officers especially in
false position. That meeting for the discus
sion of the following question: Resolved: "That
the adoption of the Prohibitory Amendment is
necessary to the suppression of the liquor traffic"
Mr. Morey says "That one of the principal officers
stated that he believed in high cense.' " Now
am the officer referred to and made no such
statement In arguing for the negative of the ques
ton, said that as 20 years of Prohibitory law had
failed to stop the liquor traffic it might be oelto try
high license before binding the prohibitory law
upon the people forever" J. w. PEARSON,
