There is no doubt OF it-not the

that's about what IL is; were living

scattering drops fell. but In = moment
this was followed by n swift dash. and
a regular downpour succeeded A
stout breeze sprang up. sweeping the
rain along in great sheets. and binding
Paul and Louise. who were compelled
to face il.
For an hour they kept ON. and all the
time their speed grew less and less.
until ut last Louise, who had exerted
herself TO the full of her strength. sank
to the ground. In an instant Paul was
on his knees at her side holding her
head in his arms and sheltering her
face with his hat.
Il can't go any further" she whis-
pcred; mot another step"
Then rest here, Paul replied. .sThe
rain will blow over directly and then
we can go on. I'm glad it's SO warm.
for the rain won't hurt US, and we shall
be none the worse for the wetting. We
won't care for it when il is over, and to-
morrow we can laugh about our nd
venture"
But IL was not the wetting or the
mere fact of being lost that worried
Louise. She realized that il was not
the proper place for her. out there i'm

dreaded what her parents would think.
She never had been guilty of an act
that would shake their confidence. and
she felt that il would break her heart

the faintest suspicion of her. All this
came through her mind and She broke
into tears and sobs.
Paul tried TO comfort her. never see

tine hour. Honest. openhearted soul
that he was, thought OF the impro-
pretty of the situation never came To-
him. He never thought of what others
might say or think; but knowing the
purity of his own motives took it for
granted that everybody else would see
the affair in its true light.

nothing TO guide us. and II we tramped
MI night we would not find your house.
We might pass and rcpass within n few
yards of it twenty times and never
know it."
Louise silently acquiesced, for she
was too weak To stand, and knew that
IL was impossible for her to go ON even
If IL We're best. So they remained wait
ing for the rain TO blow over. and hour
after hour passed.
IL was solemn time away out there
on the wide waste of lonesome prairie,
in the stiffness of the night, with the
deep thunder rolling through the heav-
ems and the lightning glaring and flash
ing all about. 1t is impossible TO pic
ture the desolation of such scene
or To describe the feeling of loneliness
that comes over one so situated.
At last the rain ceased. and shortly
faint gray light began TO show in the
east. They knew the morning was
coming, and they never welcomed il
more gladly in all their lives. After
several efforts Louise was able TO stand.
Paul held her in his arms and slowly
they walked toward home. After
walking short distance the numbness
began TO leave her, so she could pro-
coed with tolerable ease An hour
brought them within sight of the cabin,
and soon thereafter John met them. IL,
had been out the greater part of the
night in search of his daughter Louise
was soon at home, weeping on her
mothers bosom, while Paul and John
stood mutely looking on.

enough 20 understand his character and
motives. He judged that on account of
her situation Louise was out Of humor
with the world and not in frame Of
mind 70 form favorable opinions Of
anyone.
They talked but little after that, and
walked at such speed that Louise soon
became exhausted. The night had
come ON now, and of In the south the
cloud was stealing mp, while ever and
anon low growl OF thunder rolled
slowly from the east 20 the west and
vivid forks OF lightning streaked the
heavens.
Paul" Louise said, what shall we
do2 We shall be lost ont here, and
mover find our way home"
1--WE must go on, Louise, and do the
best we can. Perhaps we may End the
way"
Again they moved forward, but with
slow step, for with fatigue, fright and
anxiety, Louise was trembling so that
she could hardly bear her weight.
The cloud spread out. and soon the
whole heavens was obscuredf The
thunder grew louder and more freauent
until u became terrific, and the light
ming flashed necessarily. Then directly
II began TO rain. First q few large.
