Suppose we should be unhappy!"
She gave her father look so full of appre-
hension that he caught it's inner meaning. He
was troubled. He laid his hand reassuringly
on his daughters head.
"Odette, my dear little girl, you mustn't con-
jure UP such gloomy ideas. There are many
happy marriages, although some alas! end in
cruel disappointment. Have confidence Don't
cast any dark shadows day which ought
to be all JOY and radiance for you"
"Ah' she cried, "if only you would take me
to the altar! If you only there at that
moment to protect me and give me your bless
ing! But you will be absent, as always, no
doubt
She stopped, astonshed at having dared to
say so much. M. de Gyrieu turned pale, and
his lips contracted in bitter smile. Without
answering he walked slowly to his desk. Then
he began to write. He was so absorbed that
he seemed to forget her presence Odctte

looked at his bent shoulders and his gray hair,
hanging little neglectedy down the back of
his neck. She felt an immense tenderness, an
infinite pity, FOR this solitary man, grown old
before his time.
"Give this letter to your mother" he said
coming back to her.
What had he written? Was it plea for
forgiveness or grant of pardon? The
envelope wasn't sealed. But she didn't open it.
She held it close to her beating heart.
All! she thought, if that could happen! If
these two beings whom she loved could be
reconciled by her and on the day of her ap-
preaching marriage also join their hands!
With what lightness of spirit she would then
surrender herself to her own happiness! But
she didn't dare to believe II. 1t seemed an i'm
possible hope. She felt, however, that she
could be happy only that conditon-that
she must have that wedding present. that prom
ise of secure and joyous future.

Nine. de Gyreu had read the letter. Seated
in the salon amid the bouquets sent in honor of
her daughters betrothal, she wept silently.
Her tears mounted from the depths of a FEM
inine sensbility, cruelty wounded perhaps.
They mounted from those recesses in which
dead illusions lie buried
Finally she raised her head. Odette, stand
ing before her, awaited her decision, like de-
cree of fate.
What did you say to your father?" the
weeping mother asked. Nothing Nothing
that you can't hear. l only told him that
was afraid. Life seemed to be full of pitfalls,
menaces, obscure and treacherous perils.
How could it look otherwise when, since my
childhood, l have always seen you two sepa-

She threw herself on her mothers breast
and the two mingled their tears.

and tell your father that I am waiting for

to her lips, she now shed tears, which, how
ever, were powerless to ease her pain.
NJ. de Gyrieu was smoking in the library
when his daughter entered. Her visit took
him by surprise; it was ahead Of time. But
he had sudden intuition.
"My dear Odette, you came to tell me some
good news, didn't you?"
Odette kissed him little more ardently
than usual. She sat down beside him and
said in low voice:

what it was last year. The management

it did seem if they might have been in
