Face Showed Strain.

All this I heard for the first time
when Price, with another triumphant
look, came into my bedroom flourish
ing Martins telegram as something
she had reason to be proud of.
You don't mean to say that you
telegraphed to Mr. Conrad?" I said
Why not?' said Price. when a

She was not to call the doctor under

came she was to make it plain to him
that she had acted on her own re-
sponsibility

Every day and all day | humbly
besought the pardon of heaven
for the sin of loving Martin Conrad.
The little religious. duties which !
had neglected since my marriage

me a certain relief, but they did not.

that applied to my sinful state, and
every night on going to bed I prayed
to God to take from me all unholN
thoughts, all earthly affections. But
what was the use of my prayers when
in the first dream of the first sleep |
was rushing into Martins arms?

Health Failed.

AS q result of the fierce struggle
between my heart and my soul my
health began to fail me. From neces-
sitv now and not from design | had
to keep my room. but even there my
love for Martin was always hanging
like a threatening sword over my
head.
NV maid. Price. was forever sing
ing his praises. He was so bright
so cheerful, so strong, SO manly IN
fact, he was perfect and any woman
in the world might be forgiven Il
she fell in love with him.
Her words were like music in my
ears, and sometimes | felt as if !
wanted to throw my arms about her
neck and kiss her. But at other mo-
ments | reproved her, telling here l.
was very wicked of her to think so
much of the creature instead of TX
ing her mind on the Creator-a piece
of counsel which made Price, who
was all woman, open her sparkilng
blacks eyes in bewildermcnt.
Nearly every morning she brought
me a bunch of flowers, which Martin
had bought at Covent Garden, all
glittering from the sunshine and
damn with the dew I loved to have
them near me, but, finding they
tempted me to think more tender.N
of him who sent them ! always con-
trived by one excuse or another TO
send them into the sitting room that
they might be out Of my sight at
all events.
After a while Price, remembering
my former artifice, began to believe
that | was only pretending to be
i'll. in order to draw Martin on and
then taxing a certain liberty with
me, as with a child, she reproved me-
IF ! were a lady ! couldn't have

that il was myself, not my maid, /

giving voice to the thoughts that were
secretly tormenting me.
/ had been in bed about a week
when Price came with q letter in her
hand and a look of triumph In her
black eyes and said
There, my LADY, What did l tell
YOU? You've had it all your own way
and now you've driven him off. He
