TT was the safest thing l could do,

If I may not do it in one way, I will
in another. There is one question

any other-any other man who has the
right to care for you, and is unable or

She looked up at him, her large eyes
still shining with tears, and shuddered
slightly.

yet clear enough for her to hear every
word distinctly.
A tall, oldish girl with a discon-
tented upper lip stalked through the
hall, glanced in at the door, and sniff
her. A short, baggy-coated man out
side lowered anXiously around the
building and passed the very window
of that room, but the shade opposite
them was down, and they did not
know. The low, pleasant voice went
on:

for you since I first saw you, and I
want you to give me the right to care
for you always and protect you against

Wait, please" he pleaded, laying
his hand gently on her little, trembling
one. Don't say anything until have

will be startling to you. You have
been brought up to feel that such
things must be more carefully and de-

my father died when I was only a
young girl. We had not much money.
and my mothers older brother took
US to his home TO live. My mother
was his youngest sister, and he loved
her more than any one else living.
There was another sister, half-sis,
ter, much older than my mother, and
she had one son. He was sulky,
handsome boy, with selfish, cruel
nature. He seemed to be happy only
when he was tormenting some one. He
used to come to Uncle's to visit when
l was there, and he delighted in an
. noying me. He stretched barbed wire
where he knew l was going to pass in
the dark, to throw me down and tear
my clothes. He threw quantity of
burrs in my hair, and once he led me
into a hornets nest. After we went
to live at my uncle's, Richard was not
there so much. He had displeased my
uncle. and he sent him away to
school; but at vacation times he came
again and kept the house in discom-
fort. He seemed always to have a
special spite against me. Once he
broke a rare Dresden vase that Uncle
priced, and told him had done it.
Mother did not live long after Fa-
Their died, and after she was gone, l
had no one to stand between me and
Richard. Sometimes | had to tell my
Uncle, but oftener I tried to bear it,
because l knew Richard was already a
great distress to him.
AT last Richard was expelled from

! him that he told him he would do
nothing more for him. He must go to
