until, of a sudden there was a slight
bustle in the row of seats beyond, and
Emery entered with his mother.
Then Kate's over gloomed face grew
bright again. She drew a long breath
of relief and turned to the stage 1t was
as if the myriad gaslights had all OF a
sudden been turned up, as if all the
mimic world in the opera house had
grown radiant.
Never was voice sweeter to her
ears than the somewhat thin and
exhausted warble OF the prirna dopa,
never did scenery grow with such
natural tints or footlights shine more
softly. Kate Marcy declared that
the opera was perfection
Yes but, said pert little Nina
Cummings, do lock at Charley
Emery with that little old woman!
Why couldn't he have come and sat
with US.
Kate said nothing. Inthe crowd
now surging out Of the aisles OF the
little opera house she could scarcely
venture to express her entire opin-
ion but she said in low, earnest
tone,-
l don't know what you think of it
Nina: but |, for my part, respect Mr.
Emery thousand times more for
his kindness to his mother,
And almost at the same time she
found herself looking directly into
Charley's eyes.
For moment only. The crowd
separated them ere they could recog
nize one another; but Kate felt sure
and her cheeks glowed scarlet
that he heard her words.
Charley, said little Mrs. Emery
looking into her sons face as they
emerged into the veil of softly falling
snow, which seemed to enwrap the
whole outer world in dim dazzling
mystery, who was that girl with the
large blue eyes and the sweet face
wrapped in white feecy hood
the one who said she respected you.
1t was Kate Marcy, mother.
She has the face of an angel,
snid Mrs Emery softly,
The next day Charley went boldly
to the old Marcy homestead whose
red brick gables sheeted with ivy,
rose up out of the leahess elms and
beeches Just beyond the noise and
stir of the busy village.
Miss Marcy, he said, heard what
you said last night.
1t was not meant for your ears, Mr.
Emery, said Kate coloring a soft
rosy pink.
But he pursued looking her full in
the face, cannot be satisfied with
that, Miss Marcy, want warmer
feeling. If you could teach yourself
to love me
The dimples came around Kate
Marcy red lips, wrething her smile
in wondrous beauty.
Mr.. Emery, she said, l do love
you, and have loved you for a long
time.
And Charley went hoTe envying
neither king nor prince.
But never should have loved you
so dearly, his young wife told him
atterwa.d, if you hadn't been so kind
to that little mother OF yours. In
nv eyes you never looked SO hand
some as when you stood bending
over her gray head in the crowded
hall OF the opera house that night.

sir?' demanded Mr.. Calthorn in a
threatening voice.
He had returned from an evening
stroll with his daughter, 10 find an
intruder in the very centre of the
room, coolIy preparing to lay aside
his coat.
1t was yet early in the evening.
The street lamps had just been
lie hted, and the room being in
partial darkness, only the outlines Of
the bold intruder could be discerned.
What are you doing here l say2
b,ustered the irate proprietor angrily
But the culprit, whoever he was
seemed to be more embarrassed than
frightened.
IL beg your pardon, sir! l

mered aYolog etically.
But Mr.. Cathorn was not to be
appeased.
Thought it was your room indeed !!

will not get off SO easily, let me tell
you. Run down stairs, Nora, and
dispatch some one lor policeman.
First send some of the boarders up
here to help ME to detain this burg lar
if he attempts to escape.
Mr.. Calthorn struck match and
lighted the gas as he spoke, and
Nora, looking with frightened eyes
over her fathers shoulder, at once
recognized the intruder.
1t was the young man with the
dark eyes and dropping brown
moustache.

But her father turned on her
fuming with wrath.

And Nora fastened down stairs
not to call policeman. but to rush
wildly for assistance in another
quarter.
She quickly returned, accom-
panied by the landlady of No, IS

From a back view, the houses
were counterparts also each having
a one story kitchen attached with

Mr.. Calthorn was a fine looking
elderly gentleman, with gray

belied his real kindness of heart.
Nora resembled her handsome

having the same rich complexion,
Irish blue eyes and warm red brown

his unfortunate temper having a
sunny, light hearted disposition of
her own.
Mr.. Calthorn was reading the
morning paper, while his daughter
leaned on the window sill, at his
elbow idly watching the pedestrians
jostIing each other along the narrow
sidewalk.
Suddenly she drew back, swift
blush, like a danger signal, staining
her cheek.
The cause OF her alarm was moth

young man, with dropping brown
moustache and pair of very dark
eyes known as magnetic" whose
glances had met her own with a
flash of admiration.
Twice before that Nora had
encountered the same young man,

Who could he be? she wondered
half vexed that she could not repress
