NAMED guest. for the baron would
hear no word OF departure. He swore
he should not leave him till the season
opened again at Williamsburg.
The day before their return TO Glad
den Hall the ladies spent at Greenway
Court. As the mild November after
noon faded Armand and Anne sat in
the rustic house built of twisted grape
vine. set where the round spur on
which the lodge was built fell steeply
down. A book lay on her knee.
Far away against the long sashes OF
sapphire light the sweep Of ragged Blue
Ridge stood listlessly. The river bot
tom was violet gray reach Of stain
soaked grasses. hung with wreaths Of
trailing Virginia creeper, dabbled In
the summers blood, or as II the peaks
ran down with red wine wasting
Anne pointed where just below the
river wavered like a sheet Of spun sill
Iver, edged with soaked velvet.
"The Indians call it Shennando." she
said, Daughter OF the Stars"
He leaned forward and lifted the lit
tie book. its binding OF parchment, pale
yellow, like antique ivory. 1T is q

1T is OF the son OF poor woodcut-
-, ter. Toiling once by his hut in the
forest, he saw by chance the daughter
OF king as she rode past with her cav
alcade. He brought her cup Of water
and she smiled on him. So fair she was
that he loved her to desperation and
could not rest nor sleep from thinking
I of her face. He Travelled far and came
by night beneath her window and sang
songs to her, songs delicate and beau
tiful, in phrases that only his great
love had taught him, and when he sang
he touched the strings of his own
heart. The lady listened, and her tears
fell down from the window In the pal.
ace wall. She was great lady and he
the lowest Of the land, and In the hope
lessness of his passion he sang that he
was prince of hostile country WOO
ing in attire OF rags the darling ia
whose presence he might not rightly
come His were not like the songs OF
the gilded courtiers that ilocked her
fathers gate. They were more noble
and true and his love climbed upon
them as II on stairs of gold and drew
her heart out to him over the sill One
night she slipped out to his arms In the
darkness. Then he knelt on the yellow
forest leaves and told her the truth ant
pleaded as excuse his great love. And
he would have gone from her and left
her to go back alone"
What them" demanded Anne.
'She took his hand and kissed him

Both were silent a moment.
The vivid tints in the sky were pal
ing. The river silver dulled to mauve
The gloom, all luminous, seemed an
impatient sutton stealing amorous upon
the drowsy day. The day stirred
glowed again and spread out a tawny
food as a woman drops her hair under
some golden lamp to please a lovers
within.
Think you" he asked then very low
that such love might be?"
"'Twas for love of her." she said
softly,

when he spoke again she felt thrill
In his voice.
"Mademoiselle, suppose man loves
with love that fills all the sky; that
for him there was but the one woman
in the world. Suppose she found that
he was not what she had thought him
when she first loved him; that the idol
she had worshipped was Just clay. IL
he stood mean and small before the
world-before her-but still loving her,
adoring her! II 1t were not princess

she still love him rs before? Could
she? Could she?"
Her eyes could not meet his burning
ones.

anything-everything-in the man she
loves save
She stopped. There was a muffled
sound OF horse hoofs from the climbing
road.

Save lack of love for her"
The hoof beats were coming nearer.
She made desperate effort to compose
herself. He had bent toward her, SO
near she could smell the fragrance OF
hazel bushes In his hair.
Then ii would not matter, she
would not caIe!" he cried joyously. "He

THE PULSE OF REFORM.

Bishop Emard, of Valleyfield, Que
bee, has issued a strong pastoral letter
upon the liquor question, practically
condemning the use OF liquor in voting
contests.
The city authorities of Little Rock.
Ark, have under consideration a prop
osttion to increase the annual saloon
license in that city from $500 to $1,000,
payable in advance. The total license.
then. city. county and state, would be
$1,S21 per annum on each license.
The common council of Grand Rap
ids, Mich, has taken a firm stand
against the refunding of saloon licenses
originally in the names of employees.
and afterwards, upon the discharge Of
