He told her he had just received the
news.
"Then," she went on, 'the boy will
be released, will he not?"
"Oh, at once, of counsel"
"Do you intend to see him before he

Ronald told her he was going to ride

that" he said, with sudden firmness.
That has been only dream of mine,
a hopeless, vain dream, sent to teach me

Tears sprang into Mrs. Lancaster's
eyes and she choked up.
You must not lose hope" she al

it hope at any time," he said "She

She had reached the door and was
looking out into the yard where old
Fanshaw, in his united brogans, hick-
DRY shirt and jeans pants, was oiling
the aNles of wagon under an apple
tree. She overheard the low voices of
his two daughters on the porch and
Mrs. Fanshaw's heavy tread in the adj
joining sitting-room.
Remember" said Mrs. Lancaster,
that You have true friend over
there"
THANK you" he replied as she passed
out. He escorted her, hat in hand, to
the cart and assisted her to her seat.
Then, with a twitching lip. he stood
watching the cart as it rolled away.
Evelyn was in the garden gathering
flowers for the dinins-table when her
friend returned. She held her arms
full OF them when the old lady alight-
ed and came down the walk to her.
Evelyn studied her face in astonish-
ment.
why, dear Mrs. lancaster" she ex-
claimed, you have been crying"
The old woman wiped her red eyes
and began to shed fresh tears.
He is SO like my husband" she said,
huskily. $50 noble; such grand char
acter."
Evelyn's face lighted up. II have al
ways known that, Mrs. Lancaster. Now
you must tell me all that took place
mind, every word that you said and
every word he said.' Evelyn drew her
down on a rustic seat; her whole body
seemed ready to listen. Mrs. Lancaster
told her of her offer to aid Ronald and
Evelyn broke out, impulsively:
And he refused to accept it! Icould
have told you that
Yes, he refused" and Mrs. Lancas-
ter gave his reasons in detail. EVELYN
raised bunch OF pink roses to her
face; they were the color OF her cheeks.

pose as that"

ing" she said.
Evelyn caught her eye and smiled,
still knowingly.
"Iou have discovered that he loves
me; I knew that a long time ago, and
1t has made me unspeakably happy"
II discovered further" pursued Mrs.
Lancaster, that he does not hope ever
to win YOU" Mrs. Lancaster's lips
twitched a little. "It is that which
pains me SO much. He looked SO grand
when he made that admission. al
most cried in his presence"
HE does not hope?" said Evelyn,
and then she caught her breath, low
cred her head and began to gather up
her flowers. "He does not hope?" she
repeated the words as if to herself, and
Mrs. Lancaster rose and followed her
up the walk to the house, and as the
girl, with bowed head and rigid mien,
passed into the grand hall Mrs. Lancas-
ter began to think that Evelyn herself
had never really hoped.
Seeing that no one was in the hall,
Evelyn wheeled round suddenly.
81 have never once thought that l.
that my love would be essential to his
well-being happiness" she said,
looking up into the expectant face Of
her friend. "But, Mrs. Lancaster, If he
should really need me, it would be my
duty, before God, to be by his side
it would be my duty in spite of my
fathers wishes, in spite of everything
on earth"
An anxious look lay in the face of the
widow as she answered.:

The Welsh Double l..

A teacher who has just died in Wales
distinguished himself by helping a
bishop to make good boast that he
would be able to preach sermon in
Welsh within three months of his con-
secration.
The pronunciation of the I'll" was a
serious hindrance ard the teacher gave
counsel which proved effective:
place the top of your right-reverend
tongue upon the roof of your Episcopal
mouth, and hiss like goose"
The bishop made such progress that
the sermon was delivered within the
promised period in what was described
as excellent Welsh.-Youth's Compan-
