HIS TERRIBLE SUSPICION.
Gloom over His Correct
Young Life.

Reginald Ashcroft WAS the son Of rich but
refined parents, and yet he was not happy.
There was "A panied expression upon his
handsome countenance, and ever and anon
he walked To the window and looked out
over the beautiful prospect that stretched
away toward Wilton manor.
At last he mounted his favorite cob, which
had for two hours been hItched in front of
the stately old mansion, and dashed down
the broad highway.
Upon rca, hing Wilton manor the young
man diSmountcd and rushed in.
Geraldine lluddlcthwaitc. who had seen
his coming, met HIM at the door.
There was fond claSping OF hands, a long,
long look that was more eloquent than
words could have been. and then the hand
some pair entered the drawing room.

. beautiful girl said at last. ''Ah. do not try

If the men who become the objects of
hero worship could see the evidence of
the feeling they inspire, they would
possibly be even more recorciled to
leaving this sphere for any other, bet
ter or worse. Sometimes they do know;
and then they need to exerc Sc album

An American who has lived much
abroad says that he was present, on one
occasion, when country woman of his
