n Girls Heart.

love that would have ripened in
time, to have been the crowning
glory of his life, and he-well ne
we'll he loved her with the best love
he was capable of.
He prided in her beauty and joy
ed in the sweetness of her smile.
1t was love utterly selfish, yet
not the less deep and passionate,
for though a pure, unselfsh nature
loves best, in the truest acceptation
of the term, there is no love holds
more selfish JOY or bitter pain than
such love as Clarke Olden felt for
Leslie Sinclair.
There was not the first element of
self-sacrifice in Clarke Olden's ma
ture, yet to shy, sweet Leslie he
seemed the noblest of lovers.
Poor, pretty, penniless child, she
loved him SO passing well-he, her
handsome lover with his eager eyes
and sun-kissed hair, and his 1.-THE,
athletic form.
Yet, with all her admiring, ten
der love, at times she was sensible
off vague want ofsympathy between
them-an intangible something,
wanting in her lover.
They were promised lovers, she,
the pretty, dark-eyed maid of seven
teen, well-born and l-bred, if
penniless, and he, the master of
Woodale, and all the broad lands
around it, and all went merry as
marriage bell.
Perhaps among all the friends
that smiled on Leslie and her lover,
Vashti Mead alone hated her for the
favor she had found in Clarke Old
ems eyes.
She was a distant relative of Sew
ern Dale, Leslie's guardian, and had
come, almost self-invited, a year be-
fore to his stately home, but where
she had been kindly welcomed.
She had looked at her own beau
tiful face in the glass-the face
whose beauty had maddened men
in the past, for though barely twen
ty-two, she had drunk deep of the
cup of life before coming to the
home of Severn Dale.
What brought her there she could
hardly tell herself; partly because
she had to retrench her outlay;
principally to see if she could win
the master of Woodale.
Her one thought before she met
him had been his wealth and po-
sition, and after-after she had sim
ply fallen in love with him in
manner she had never dreamed her
self capable of.
She had almost laughed in scorn
at the thought of any face being
fairer than her own; but even before
her coming Clarke Olden had look
ed into Leslie's voilet eyes, watched
the smiles on her curving lips, and
let his heart pass from his keeping
forever.
There were many weak points in
Clarke Olden's nature, but perhaps
the weakest was family pride. With
him it was a juggernaut, to which
should be sacrificed ii necessary, all
things on earth.
Perhaps it was Fate, who likes to
have hand in all love affairs in
particular, that throw certain torn

hands while exploring the long gar
ret in search of model for Il fancy

/ ed womb De saying llIUle, lOr WHeIl
self is wounded with men of his
caliber, the wound is deep; but no
thought of Leslie's pain came to
his mind.
He cursed the fate that had de-
MED him his hearts desire, but not
for a moment, in the beginning, at
least, did he dream of tramping
pride under foot, for her dear sake.
If Vashti Mead hoped turn her
treachery to good account, she
failed most signally, for he almost
Stunned her presence after, never
even saying farewell when he sailed
for Europe, two months later.
Perhaps change of scene might
teach him to forget a pair of ten
der, violet eyes and the curve of
the sweet, red lips.
He went abroad, but go where he
would, her eyes and smile were be-
fore him, and slowly but surely the
very selfishness of his love conquer
ed him.
Il will go back to her." he said !;
none will ever know the shadow
that lies over her, and with my
wealth and position, no one will
question my choice"
So he grew gay and confident
again, and the sky was blue above
him.
If any thought of what the fair,
sweet girl he he had wooed and won
had suffered, came to him, he put
it from him.
Ii the roses had faded on her
cheeks, they would bloom again in
the sunshine of his love.
So he went home-home to love,
and the smiles and love-lit eyes of
Leslie Sinclair again.
He met her in the woodland
glade, under the shadow of droop-
ing trees.
He never remembered what he
said, or how he told her that love
had conquered pride.
He had taken her hands in his,
but she had drawn them from him
with low, soft laugh, that made
him look at her in questioning sur
prise.

died when was only a week old
He kept his first marriage a secret
(not from Viviene Lester, however)
simply because" with another laugh
''his father, like you, did not ap-
prove of an actress"
To all his pleading after that, she
only answered with the same half
mocking laugh, and with it still on
her lips, she left him there, white
with passion, cursing the folly that
had wrecked his life.
With shy, sweet, dropping eyes,
Leslie told Severn of her meeting
with Clarke Olden.
"He asked me to be his wife
again." she said, pleading that his
love had conquered his pride"
"And you answered.. Oh,
Leslie, Leslie! you answered."
Il answered no, most decidedly
mol for-for, Severn, all that old
fancy died at his cowardly deser-
ton, and and"
"And what? Oh. Leslie, my dar-
ling! can it be dare hope-dare
tell YOU Oh, sweetheart, sweet
heart"-for her eyes had answered
the question, and the next moment
he held her in his arms, kissed her
sweet, red lips, and, looking into
the violet eyes, knew he had won
purer, deeper, truer love than the
passionate dream of her girlhood.

power to part him and Leslie Sin
clair, if she only managed it cleverly.
How she brought the matter
round she could hardly tell, but
vague hints as to some secret in
Leslie's birth, compelled Clark to
ask an explanation.
She pretended to evade the qnes-
tion made numerous half explana-
tjons, and ended by placing the
paper she had found in Clarke Old
ems hand.
With paling face he read:
Il do not think there is any me-

was not Viviene's own child, but
the child of an actress whoa-here
there were few lines illegible, then
early folly ended as we'll as
it did, and yet-Well, loves young
dream is after all perhaps"
That was all that could be read.
Clarke's face was pallid now.
Viviene had been Frank Sin
clair's highborn young wife, and
Leslie was not her child.
He went straight to Severn Dale
and laid the paper before him.
"You knew this?" he said when
l asked Leslie to be my wife-knew
it and remained silent?"
Severn's pale, grave face flushed
slightly.

"Had you let me explain"
Severn said.
But the words died on his lips as
a slender, girlish form came from
behind the draperies OF the deep
bay window and stood before them.
Il have unwittingly heard all

Mr.. Olden is perfectly free from this

Clarke assayed to speak, but she

When the door closed behind him
she sunk on her knees beside her
guardian.
"Oh, guardy, guardyl there is no

A peculiar smile curved his hand

THE LATEST ISSUE OF BONDS.

During the last month the gold reserve
in the treasury for the purpose of redeem

became so reduced, and its further deple-

for the public welfare it became sneces-

maintain popular faith in the ability and
determination of the government to meet,
as agreed, its pecuniary obligations. 1t

DOWN THE LONG SHAFT.
Interesting Trip Through the Tiger Mine
The Big Ore Body.

The Tiger mine and mill is on the
north side of the gulch. 1t is magnifi
cent property, and shows up body
of ore in the breast of the drift at the
lower level that is a dream of wealth.
This great ore body was uncovered only
few days ago. 1t is on the regular
vein that has been worked for years
on the upper tunnels where it averaged
from to Is feet. Here it began to
widen until the stopers leave behind
them a space 26 feet in width between
the walls, of which about 10 feet is
almost solid galena and the balance is
of the average grade of the vein as
