"But he IS SO DUH Rose"
Il really DO not think SO. Annette There

The word, as about Mr.. Gray. But Is 20 ms

To me, his conversation is always interest
ing"
at never is so 10 me And besides al
that his tastes and mine are as widely diff
ferent as the poles. Why, Rose, If you be-
come his wife you viii sink INTO Obscuriiy
at once. He never can make any impress
SION on society. Il is not in him.
Rather make no impression on society
at all than false or disgraceful one, say
l." was the firm reply of Rose.
'You can not. certainly, mean TO say
returned her friend, that the impression
made upon society by Mr.. Gray Is either a
false or disgraceful one"
Il should be sorry TO make that assertion.
for | 90 not believe such 10 be the case, =
Rose replied. What l mean is, that / can
read Mr.. Hambleton's true character, and
know it TO be based upon fixed and high
moral principles. These can never make
the woman who truly loves him unhappy
They give place TO no moral contingencies
by which hopes are so often wrecked and
hearts broken. Now, in regard TO Mr.
Gray, there is nothing in his character, Sc
far as | can read it, upon which 10 predicate
safe calculations OF tins kind. He is intelli
gent and highly interesting as a compan
ion. His personal appearance and his adj
dress are attractive. But all below the ex
terror is hidden. The moral qualities Of The
man never show themselves. ] feel that u
give my heart TO such a one would be risk
ing too much. OF course l must decline hi'
offer"
Indeed, indeed, Rose, l think you arr
very foolshi"
thine VIII show, Annette"
ayes, time viii show" was the propheti
response.
And time did show that Rose made a RICH
choice when she accepted the offer Of Jane
Hambleion, and gave him a warm, tru
heart. Wisely and well did she choose, 70
in her choice she was governed By IA
tional conviction that James Hambleton'
character was based upon high moral pria
ciples. In resting her hopes upon thes
she had nothing TO fear.-T. s. Arthur, il
