A STRANGE WILL.
1t Brought Fortune and Happiness
to TWO Lovers.

Yes, she was dead at last-Nlargaret
Dcmorcst, of Stony Lodge - and tho
shock Of her demise had shaken Belle
vue from center to circumference For
years her numerous relatives, each
with an eye to the estate, had watched
her movements from respectful dis
lance, which she herself had intcrposed
between them, and their hearts had
grown sick with hope deferred.
Heart disease, the doctors said, when
She was found one morning with a
smile Of peace frozen on her stern and
withercd features. The relatives ac-
cepted the verdict with due resigna-
tion, following the remains of the dear
departed to their ilnal resting place
amid an ostcntatious display Of Grape.
But when the win was read the excite

Next came Margie Vane, child of a
favorite nephew, who was to have been
the heir had he not displeased his aunt
by marrying against her will girl Of
obscure parentage-"a pauper," Miss
Demorest called her.
Harold Vane had died some years
back, closely followed by his wife, and
the one daughter, Margaret, was left
alone in the world and utterly penni-
less
Mrs, Meredith had taken her-for the
old aunt had remained obdurate and
she was now serving in the capacity Of
