You mean that you do not really
know whether you love Billy or not?"
Yes. l do love him-l'm sure Of
that; but l. can't make up my mind to
go so far away from all my people,"
I'm other words, you don't love him
enough to give up everything for his
sake, eh?"
Annette gave a troubled sigh. Il
can't bear to have it put that way, for
he Is so dear, and l really do love
him; but the question is, would be
content away off there with just
Billy?'
We'll, dear, if you really love him
you won't be content here without
him."
mo, realize that; but it all re-
quires great thought, doesn't it?"
Yes, and you are right to look
on the question from every side before
deciding. You must remember, dear,
that when a woman really loves 4
man, she is ready to go with him to
the end of the world"
And give up all her people?" said
the girl, wistfully.

to this country and never saw her
people again, and yet she was a very

Yes, that's so; and mother lived
far away from grandmamma the first
ten years after she and father were
married"
ut is simply a question Of strength
of your love. dear. If you love Billy
as you should live the man you mar
~, you will be quite happy even If you
are far from all the dear home peo-
pie"
II will miss mother so dreadfully."
"Of course you will, but your mother
thoroughly understands lnat your loVo
for her is just the same as ever; but
a wife's duty to her husband comes
first"

Lady and gazed dreamily into the dis
