had shut himself up in his shame and
grief, for little as 1 had suspected 1t
and hard and cruel as l had thought
him, he had really and truly loved me-
During his last days his mind had
failed him and he had given away all
his fortune-scattered it, no one knew
how, as something that was quite use
less-and then he died, alone and
broken hearted"
That was the end OF the Reverend
Mothers narrative. She did not try
to explain or justify or condemn her
own or her sisters conduct, neither
Gid she attempt to apply the moral of
her story to my own circumstances.
She left me to do that for myself.

spoke. creeping closer and closer to
her until my head was on her breast.
For some time longer we sat like
this in the soft Italian night, while
the fireflies came out in clouds among
the unseen flowers of the garden and
the dark air seemed to be alive with
sparks of light.
I When the time came to 60 to bed
the Reverend Mother took me to my
room, and, after some cheerful words,
she left me. But hardly had l lain
down, shaken to the hearts core by
what | had heard, and telling myself
that the obedience of a daughter to
her father. whatever he might de-
mand of her. was an everlasting and

most women by mysterious and I'M

I'VE were back in Rome by this
time, and there-at school or else
where had formed the conviction
| that girl must passionately love the
man she marries, and l did not love
| the Roman noble. l had also been led
to believe that a girl should be the
| first and only passion of the man who
| marries her, and, young as l was, l
knew that my middle-aged lover had

Consequently I demurred, but my
father threatened and stormed, and

in gold, with bracelets on my bare
arms, a tigerskin band over my fore
head, and a cluster Of grapes in my
hair.

TWENTIETH CHAPTER.

Tn the late afternoon Of the same
day we were sitting together for
the last time on the terrace of
the Reverend Mothers villa.
1t was peaceful evening. a sweet
and holy time Not a leaf was STIR
air, but the voice Of q young boy,
singing a love song, came up from
somewhere among the rocky lodges
OF the vineyards below, and while the
bell of the monastic church behind us
was ringing the Ave Maria the far
off bell of the convent church at Con
zano was answering from the other
side of the lake-like angels calling
TO each other from long distances in
the sky
MARY" said the Reverend Mother,
II want TO tell you a story 1t is the
story of my own life-mine and my
sisters and my fathers
was sitting by her side and she
was holding my hand in her lap and
patting It, as she had done during the
interview of the morning.
"'rhey say the reason so few women
become nuns is that a woman is too
attached to her home to enter the
holy life until she has suffered ship
wreck in the world That may be So
with most women. 1t was not so with
me-
Shot for Father.
My father was what is called a
self made man. But his fortune did
rot content him. He wanted to found
family. If he had had a son this
might have been easy. Having only
two daughters, he saw no way but
that OF marrying one OF US into the
Italian nobility.
MY sister was the first to disap-
point him. She fell in love with a
young Roman musician. The first
time the young man asked for my
sister he was contemptuously re-
fused; the third time he was flung
out of the house. His nature was
headstrong ard passionate, and so
was my fathers. II either had been
different, the result might not have
been the same. Yet who knows?
Who can say?"
The Reverend Mother paused for a
moment. The boys voice IN the
VINEYARD was going on
To remove my sister from the
scene of temptation, my father took
her from Rome to our villa in the
hills above Albano. But the young
musician followed her. Since my ia
Their would not permit him to marry
her he was determined that she should
ly with him, and when she hesitated
Ia do so he threatened her II she
did not meet him at certain hour on
a certain night NV father would be
dead In the morning

Dear Miss Fairfax:

I am deeply in love with a
young man two years my senior,
but do not think he returns my
love, as he made an appointment
with me at my home and did not
keep it. Would 1t be right for me
to ask him to call again, as
like him very much.
