One day the artist Jasper called-an-
other man with whom Cecily had fiirted
before her marriage. She was unhappy
at her husbands growing suspicion and
jealousy; and during some of Jasper's
words of friendship broke into tears.
The sight of her tears. the sound of the
sob in her voice sent the blood to Jasper's
head and made him for the moment forget
all motives of prudence, honor, or self
control. Selling Cecily's Two hands in his,
he exclaimed passionately
"Cecily, / cannot bear to see YOU I'M
happy, to stand by and do nothing to com
fort you. All, If you would only trust
yourself to me you should never have an
other moments suffering: ] would devote
my whole life to making yours one long
dream of bliss. And it would not be wrong.
darling because it is love that constitutes
marriage, and not ceremony. If u man
does not make his wife happy he is not
really married to her; he is not her hus-
band in the sight Of heaven. But you
and |, dearest-'
At this point his flow of eager, rapid
words was cut short for Cecily wrenched
her hands from his, and springing up,
looked round helplessly as though ask
ing the unseen powers by what cruel freak
it was that this undesired and terrifying
declaration haU been brought upon nef.
"Oh, what have l done? How have 7
deserved this?" she cried, throwing out
her arms with a gesture of despair. Am
| really wicked. or is il some horrible de-
fusion that makes everybody think me so
depraved?"
"Cecily," said Jasper, sobered by the un-
expected effect of his impulsive speech.
Don't talk like that. Nobody thinks you
wicked. | least of all. If the knowledge
of my love only alarms and dstresses you,
forget what l have said. You shall never
be troubled by me again.
She turned and looked him straight In
the face.
Il don't wish to assume any high and
mighty airs of virtue she said quietly.

words TO me today. But If 1t is true that

"Then there is nothing more to be said,
returned Jasper trying to assume Il tone
of easy indifference, except to beg your
forgiveness for the annoyance my stupid
blunder must have caused you"

A STUDY IN PREJUDICES.

II all husbands Were level-headed anu
all wives perfectly truthful, discreet
and devoted. society would no doubt
gain in eminent responsibility and de-
corum, but would ii not become. at the
same time, unendurably tame, trite and
monotonous? No doubt there would be
fewer divorces. elopements and that
sort of thing If all young men and
women about to marry could be per-
suaded to cast out the notes of ro-
nance in their several eyes, which color
existence with unnatural glamors, and
view each other as simply so much
chemical accumulation of gross mate
rails with sprinkling of intellect and
q modicum of common sense But
would not the gain in such a transac-
tion be overbalanced by the consequent
loss of sensation and novelty? In other
words. are we not better off as we are,
despite our madnesses of exuberant
youthful spirits and rare pranks of
high-strung idealism, than we would
be if transformed into male and female
beastt, having in view no larger des,
tiny han simply to eat, to sleep and to
rear children for the same prosaic ends?
