IT WAS A HARD BLOW.
Uut the Boston Girl Felt That She
Had u Duty That Must he
Performed.

Lycurgus Whittlepay stood with
bowed head, and twirled his thumbs.
He loved Hortensia Allingham, for she
was beautiful in spite of her Boston
birth. And, in addition to her lovely
face and graceful form, she had rich
father.
1t is little wonder that the young
man was troubled She had just told
him that she could never be his wife.
The world that had seemed SO bright,
so cheerful before, had suddenly be-
come place of gloom. Lycurgus Whit
tlepay felt as one who had suddenly
been hurled from a lofty pinnacle and
struck where the bottom was hard and
unyielding.
"And," he asked, after long and
painful silence, sis this your final de-
cision?"
Eyes" she answered, "our dream of
bliss is esded.'
But he went on, "you told me only
yesterday, that l was the only man
you had ever really loved"
II know I did" she assented, "and
spoke the truth. did love you then"
"And you do not love me now?"
mo. My idol has been shattered"
He moved little nearer, and peered
into her beautiful face. 1t was like
that of Greek goddess, cold and
faultlcss.
"What," he asked at length, "has
caused this change in your feeling to-
ward me? I know it can be nothing
that you have heard concerning my
past, for I am from Buffalo and inno-
cent. Sunday school picnics are the
most riotous things we ever have in
Buffalo. Tell me what it is. DO not
keep me in suspense. l am unused to
excitement, and the strain may prove
to be more than l can stand if you re-
main silent much longer
81 will be frank with you," she said.
and her voice was without tremor.
Yesterday when you came here we be-
gan talking about the weather. 1t is
always dangerous subject, ut'you
had shown no inclination to discuss
lbsen or Maeterlink, and SO when you
said it was getting warmer, ! made no
effort to check you, because-because
loved you, and was willing to sacrifice
my own feelings for your comfort"
eyes," he urged, "please go on. Let
me know the whole truth"
r"Well," she bitterly resumed, you
were not willing to simply talk about
the weather, but at length you, as you
doubtless remember went around the
corner to the drug store for the pur-
pose of finding out how warm it was.
Then you came back and said the Their
mometer had gone up six points, I
have tried hard to overlook ito for
get it-but the effort has been in vain.
Thermometers do not 60 up. Some
times they go down-when the nails
break. But the temperature is indi-
Gated by the fluctuations of the mer-
curry. I cannot be happy as the wife
of one who says the thermometer has
gone up Good-by, Lycurgus. shall
always hold you in grateful remem-
brance for one thing. You betrayed
yourself before it was too late"
But he had his revenge. After they
had shaken hands, and he had looked
around to make sure that her stalwart
brother was not present to do him yio-
lence, he said:
"Well, I'm glad / done it, anyway"
and then ran.
They found her where she had fallen,
and when the latest bulletin was posted
her fate was still in the balance.-Cleve-
land Leader.
