Hctcn, mn dear tdSsie, say Yes"
If thought you We're n man like to 60
to the mischief for aught that woman
might do to you would say hundred
fold No this minute. But
| But you will trust me? You will
love me? Oh, my bonnie Helen, give
me the one word that will make me
prouder than king or kaiser. Will you
be my wife, Helen?"
And she answered, YES" Then she
suffered him to taste the sweetness of
her surrender. She allowed herself to
confess that She loved him dearly, that
she had long loved him and would love
him to the end of life. And the tide
came murmuring up, and the purple
sunset frightened the seaward stretch
es as they told in the eerie loneliness
or the rocks their tale of love and be-
lieved that 1t was something quite new
and special to their own experience.
Waiting for their return, the elder
knew what he would have to hear, and
ne tftSG 10 prepare himself for 1t. If
Helen was resolved to marry this man,
he must at least Bear his disappoint-
mont without Whispering and with
SIGH silent dignity as became an elder
pr the kirk. But it was bitter trial,
for he found out that hour how great
was his dislike fer Roy Anderson and
how much he feared his influence over

what talk is there of breaking
hearts? Parfcct nonsense! A good heart
never breaks. 1t has no occasion tc
break. What you cannot change you
may call the will of God, ana il yor
will what God wills then there is peace
Dinna let me hear again of such fool
ishness as breaking heart
He waited for no reply, and Helen
was not inclined to make one. She
walked to the open door and let the
fresh breeze blow in her hair and face
and her eyes wander away to the boats
where her two lovers were BUSY Win
the lines. AT Least she thought SO, but
it was not many minutes ere she heard
q step and voice that made her heart
beat to the tune it set.
"That is Roy" she whispered, 'and
III have the truth from him ere things
go bit further" But she stepped out
or the cottage and went down the little
garden to the low stone wall which in
closed it. He saw her leaning on it.
He waved his cap above his head and
came rapidly forward. but yet timing
his steps to the joyous melody
"The winds veering aft.
Then spread every sail:
She'll bear all her canvas a-trip!'
He was dark, slim youth, much sun
burned, with curling hair, splendid
teeth and Il voice that might vile a

Helen! Helen! My beautyw He
stopped in the middle of the song to
say the words, and he said them on her
lips, with his hands on her shoulders,
as he stood face to face with her. Then
he leaped the wall and asked if she
would come down to the water and
nave walk and u talk with him.
And Helen grew suddenly ten times
loVeller. Her heart throbbed like a hive
III June. Yes, she wanted to go down
to the water, for love has still some

Roy took it over his arm. Then they
strolled down to the sands together.
AS soon us they were little distance
from the cottage Roy asked:

"Dinna speak of father that way.

Roy went by him with such an ironical
look and such scornful laugh as

"Does Roy admit that he did It'll"
"Roy admits nothing. He gets be-

think he would do the like? Will any
body say that he did do it? Was it
likely he would blacken the name he
likes best in all the world? Do folks
take him for n fool? What would he
make by it? and the like of that. And
all the time he is storming and swag-

KING EDWARDS slR1 hDAY.
Officially Celebrated IN LondOn-M Military and
Naval Parades.

London, May 81 The birthday of
King Edward, who swas born Novem-
ber 8, 1S4l, was officially celebrated
yesterday, it having been decided, as
announced in the official gazette, April
l5, that his majesty's natal day was
to be celebrated in London and on the
home stations May 30, as being the
most suitable to make a military dis
play. On the other hand, foreign sta
tIons will celebrate it November 8, the
actual anniversary of his birth.
Great interest in the celebration was
not diminished by the ex-
pectations OF greater series of events
surrounding the coronation. The towns
throughout the kingdom were gaily
decorated and the shipping at the vari-
GUS ports made the gayest display of
bunting. The day was observed at all
of the home military and naval head
quarters with parades and sautes.
The chief celebration was the ceremony
of "trooping the colors," on the Horse
Guards parade here, and the presenta-
tion OF colors to the new Irish guards.
