Now, here was the real Katherine.
Her very presence, her smiles, her
tears, her words would be consola-
tion SO far beyond all hope, that the
girl by her side seemed kind OF
miracle to her.
She was far more than miracle to
Hyde. AS the door opened, he slowly
turned his head. When he saw who
was really there, he uttered a low cry
of joy,-a cry pitiful in its shrill weak
ness. In moment Katherine was
close to his side. She kissed his hands
and face, and whispered on his lips
the sweetest words Of love and fidelity.
Hyde was in rapture. He lay still,
speechless, motionless, watching and
listening to her.
Hyde could speak little, but there
was no need of speech. Had he not
nearly died for her? Was not his very
helplessness a plea beyond the power
of words. And SO quickly, SO quick
ly. went the happy moments! Ere
Katherine had half said, Il love thee"
Mrs Gordon reminded her that it was
near the noon.
Then we must part, my Katherine,
for little. When will you come
again."
This was painful question, because
Katherine felt, that, however she
might excuse herself for the unfore-
seen stress OF pity that all unaware
had hurried her into this interview,
she knew she could not find the same
41f 70 nd
arranged.
"Only once more" Hyde pleaded. 81

row? No Two days hence, them"
1.-TWO days hence will come again.
Then no more"
He smiled at her, and put out his
hands; and she knelt again by his side,
and kissed her farewell on his lips.
And, as she put on again her clcak
and veil, he drew a small volume to-
wards him, and with trembling hands
tore out of it a scrap of paper, and
gave it to her.
Under the lilac hedge that night she
read it, read it over and over,-the bit
OF paper made almost warm and SEN

his beloved:

Sails for Skaters.

Considering the number Of persons
in this country that indulge in sknt.
ing. it is somewhat of surprise to
see how few of them have ever used
a skate sail. or in fact have ever
heard Of such thing. However, in
the last few years this sport has be.
come better known, and it is not an
uncommon sight to see dashing hith.
er and thither among the dark forms
of the skaters. the glistening sails Of
the skate sailors.
To the onlooker 1t seems at the first
glance that the sailor must certainly
lose his balance and topple over, SO
sharply does he lean backward
against his sail; but SO strong is the
force Of the wind exerted against 1t
that this expected fall Is seldom q
reality. When 1t does happen the un.
fortunate is usually a novice.
There are but few requisites for the
enjoyment OF this pastime. First
and of the most Importance IL a pair
of sharp skates. A few yards OF cot
ton cloth and some small poles fur.
n.sh the rest of the material. From
these any person can with little care
fashion a sail that will furnish him
with many a happy hour.-Country

CHAPTER VIII.

"The Silver Link, the SiIken 7 te.
II Katherine had lived at this day.
she would probably have spent the
time between her promise and its full
filment in self-analysis and introspec-
tive reasoning with her own cen
science. But the women of a century
ago were not tossed with winds of var
ious opinions. or made foolishly sub
tile by arguments about principles
which ought never to be associated
with dissent. A few strong. plain
dictates had been set before Katherine
as the law of her daily life; and she
knew. beyond all controversy, when
she disobeyed them.
In her own heart, she called the sin
she had determined to commit by it's
most unequivocal name. II shall make
happy Richard; but my father l shall
deceive and disobey, and against my
own soul there will be the lie." This
was the position she admitted, but
every woman is Eve in some hour of
her life. The law of truth and wisdom
may be in her ears. but the apple of de-
light hangs within her reach; and.
with full understanding Of the conse-
quences of disobedience. she takes the
forbidden pleasure.
There are women who prefer secrecy
to honest, and sin to truthfulness; but
Katherine was not one of them. II 1t
had been possible to see her lover
honorably, she would have much pre-
ferred 1t, but she knew well the storm
Of reproach and disapproval which
would answer any such request; and
her thoughts were all bent toward de-
vising some plan which would enable
her to leave home early on that morn
ing which she had promised her lover.
But all her little arrangements fail
ed; and 1t was almost at the last hour
of the evening previous, that circum-
stances offered her a reasonable ex-
cuse. 1t came through Batavius, who
returned home later than usual, bring
ing with him great many patterns of
damask and figured cloth and stamped
leather. At once he announced his
intention of staying at home the next
morning In order to have Joanna's
aid in selecting the coverings for their
new chairs. and counting up their cost.
He had taken the strips out of his
pocket with an air of importance anu
complaisanee; an. Katherine. glanc-
ing from them to her mother. thought
she perceived fieeting shadow of a
feeling very much akin to her own
contempt Of the mans pronounced self
satisfaction. So when supper was
over, and the house duties done. she
determined to speak to her. Joris was
at town meeting. and Lysbet did not
interfere with the lovers. Katherine
found her standing at an open window.
