there be a sure and certain consola-
ton at hand But Eunice Trevecca
was not an average woman; her heart
did not always rule her head.
When nearly year had passed
without so much as line from Will
frid, Eunice deemed herself indeed
forgotten. What she had feared and
foreseen, she told herself. was come
to pass; and that woman" as she
termed Clara Passavant in her
thoughts, had probably won him away
from his early affection by her wiles
and her brilliant social attainments.
Il suppose we are not in his class
any longer" she said to herself Bit
terly. But she will never make him
happy; all she cares about is the
money"
She did not, nor would not, blame
Wilfrid; it was all that woman's' evil
doings. Yet she tried her best to
face the fact that henceforth she
must piece out her life alone. But
it was sorry attempt.
Eunice had not been a woman had
she failed to see the drift of Master
Rogers coming and goings. Hers
was too sweet a nature not to feel
honored by what she supposed was
the unseltish admiration of a passably
good man. He had apparently sue
ceeded in ingratating himself with
her stepfather, and his companion
ship proved a rather welcome diver
sion in those dark days. But she
knew his love-quest was hopeless, and
discouraged his more marked atten-
tons, for she told herself her heart
was dead.
So when Roger Hews pressed his
suit-he never made love to her as
Wifi had done-she was ready with
her answer.
1T cannot be, Mr.. Hews," she said,
as they stood in the dim old parlor.
Il esteem and admire you as friend,
butt shall never marry"
Perhaps | have been too hasty,'
said Roger suavely. In time, pos
sibly, you will like me better. Let
me still be your friend and comrade.
| will not recur to this without your
permission. but some day ] shall ask
you again"
She shook her head in token that
his was forlorn hope, but she was
too kind hearted to infict hurt
where she could avoid it.
"On those conditions, then" she
said, we may still be friends; but !
shall never change my mind"
Cursed upstart!' Hews muttered
when he found himself on the wrong
side of the door she loves him
still! | wish he would get married
himself; then, my lady. perhaps you'd
sing another song"
