Dallas stretched out his hand and clasped
the hand of his friend in silence. That
was all. But the younger man knew now
that for Max Beauregord the die was set
forever. He would love Valerie Herbert
to the latest hour of his life; and no other
woman would ever fill his heart, no other
woman would ever bear his name. To
Dallas, unworthiness was the slayer Of
love; the wound might be long in healing,
but it would heal at length. But Max
Beauregard was differently constituted;
for him there was no -'Iov'd O3.3e:'' given,
his love could not be recalled or crushed;
it could deny itself, nay. did not even de-
sire possession, rather than accept poverty
in return for its boundless wealth; its
strength made it exact strength; but it
had the curse Of immortality. What evil
Fate brought it about, Dallas asked him
self, that such man as this should fling
away his heart on such a girl as Valerie
Herbert-the creature Of an hour-;n form
an angel, in heart, a more decorous
Phryne!

Valerie was silent; her heart stood still
with emotion. She had never dreamed Of
this-that Max should select her cross, and
with his own hands carry it to the chapel.
He would not have laid it on the coffin,
among the offerings of the dead mans
nearest and dearest; but he must have had
O tender thought of her to do as he had
done. Yet would he not regret this when
he knew of her answer to Aston Lawford?
'I don't know what Elinor means to do, :"
Mrs. Langley said, presently. ''She said
she could not stay long at Abbot's Leigh;
but of course Max must remain for little
while, so I think he viii take her abroad

will come to London first-EIinor seems TO

decline all invitaCions-as a friend of Eli

not well visit this autumn-at any rate,
not until September"
ooh, no, pon' said Valerie, quickly; ''and
it would be nicer to 60 to Italy"
'And do you more good, child. Yes, we
will co."
So right and left sped letters from Mrs.
Langley to friends at whose country houses
she and Valerie were to have visited, eX
cusing their inability to keep their engage

death; and there was not little grumbIing
