They hung the tree with glittering festoons and trimmed 1t with many candles, fastened on the presents all tied up m pretty parcels, arranged the last detail for evening and the work was done. Something else had been .complished too--a set determination in one young mans mind that neither wealth nor outside opposition should interfere be- tween him and his hearts desire.

Her body shook with strangled emo tion, but she made no reply. "Is it? I say!" he demanded again. furiously.
 She did not speak and he flung the little book foreib1y into her face and strode out of the room. The blow stung, but she caught the volume and cIasped It to her breast. It had been forced open, and on the fly-leaf was one small, scrawling. penciled line "I love you" .
