I of tun wonder. I ever lived through lt,n and Mr. PolndoxMr drew a long loop, put her crot het needle croNHwUfl between her teeth, and smoothed her work uon her knee. Mrs. Brown rolled up her rlck-rack, put it In her little handbag, and sauntered aevrBwiedly to th windw, where she suddenly became ek trirtod with IntereKt. 'Wby, Fanny, here's your iipo site neighUir moving In!" 'Uraclou! you don't say so! Do let me see him. Buth lovely thing have been Koinjs on in there for weeks. What U autiful carriage and home! Why, it's a .miun. and she ha a real wa.'Kkin cloak down to her kuees. EleRant, isu't it! But she's too tall entirely." The two ladies put their faevs clone to the glass and peered through the fast deepening twilight at the tall woman who liad deMcended leisurely from her brougham and irtood talking to her coachman wit hout looking at him; possibly she wai looking down the street at an individual who was ap proaching her with movemeuts as leisurely as her own. Something in his appearance seemed to rivet her attention, for she con tinued to look at him and talk in a low tond to the coai-bman. Ha was not a bad sort to look at : a slender man. rather over medium hffii'ht- iu unite of a drooD forward of tlw head: a iaU 14 nde man, with aquilie fea tures and near-sighted gray ej?s, before which he wore gold-rimmeii pincenes. His hands were thrust in the pocket of his great coat, and he walked along with the utmwt deliberation of movement and a faee utterly devoid of motion. Wlion Le reached the tall woman ho paused, and though they hod not met for five ycais, and had (iai-tel under unusual rireiun stances raise! his hat and spoke with grave, unmoved civility. Tho lady was not bo calm; a flush roue to Iter cheek and she gaaud at him with a curiosity not unmiigled with embar radunent. They Uxl talking in quiet, even tones for a few moments. Mr. Grey Poin dexter again raisel his hat, and crossed tho street to enter the house Mrs. Brown had just left. Mrs. Poinduxter met him in the hall ; It bad been her unfailing practice during the year of her marriage to do this; he had very distinct ideas on the subject of a wife's duties, and meeting her husband with a blue bow in her hair was one of them ; had she not read in thot-e excellent books replete with advice to young wives how husbands' hearts had been brought back to their allegiance by the judicious use of blue bow, and was it not wi.se to take tnem by the forelock and wear it early and persistently ? Also, she invariably kissed him, but on this evening her husband detected a lack of warmth in the vesper salute. How ever, be wisely refrained from comment, and retired to pursue his toilet for dinner. As fkh was being removed his patience was re warded. Mrs. Poindexter remarked, with a touch of suspicion in her voice. "1 didn't know you were acqiainted with our new neighbor; you never spoke of it." "Really, I confess I carelessly neglected to inquire of the gasfitter and upholsterer who their employer might tie. but 1 discovered this evening that the person is Mrs. Paul, whom I used to know five or six years ago." "Yes,' rising inflec tion and increased suspicion. "Was she Mrs. Paul when you knew herf "She was not; her name was Forest and she was unmar ried. I wish you would call on her. She is as charming as she is beautiful." HLs wife said nothing, but the expression on her coun tenance loudly announced that "wild horses wouldn't drag her to do it." Extreme meas ures of that nature were not resorted to, but Mr. Poindexter, finding the subject several subsequent attempts not a happy ne, dropped it and went to call alone. When hi wife was made aware of this fact, she began to regard Mrs. Paul as an open enemy, for she was one of those married people who always regard an unmarried person of the opposite fees, whom their partner admires, as a natural antagonist. Five years before. Grey Poin dexter and Nina Forest had met at a quiet watering place, whore they were recruiting. They loved each other, and for several months were quite absurdly happy, but with a return to the world in the autumn, were at tacked by qualms of doubt as to any ultimate realization of this Arcadian idyL Grey Poindexter felt he was doing an inconsidera ble thing, seeing that be was unable to offer bis fiance an establishment at all commensur ate with her reasonable expectations. Final ly Miss Forest told him her mother positively refused to consider her engagement serious, and insisted the whole affair should be quiet ly dropped. "She says. Grey, you are not aMe to marry; is it truef "Well, I'm rather afraid it is. I wouldn't give you all this" with a comprehensive wave of the hand "that you've been used to, but if you are willing to do the love-io n cottage business, Nina, f think we might Ih very happy. It would not lie half liad. you know, with you and the honeysurklm and that" growing vague as he went on. bat en deavoring to generalize agreeably. "Dear Grey," she Mid. trying to smile, though tears stood in her eyes, 1 had uevnr thought about that part of it, ' whether you had money or not, but now I'm afraid it baa to end. It is not necessary to tell you I love you; you know that; but you know too, that neither of us would lie happy to a marriage of that sort. We were born in this rfpbore and would be wretrhiil in any other, and poor, we should have to leavo it and and oh! Grey, you know" 'Yes, dear, I know it must be, I supiiose. Good-bye, Nina." She held up her white face, tcrminiing with tears, to lie kissed n thiHuutinl Uhmk, and be, unable to speak, took her in his arms for a moment, aud theu mt her gently away aud left her. Miss Forent went abroad Immediately, and two years later uuirrn.il th Imuker Paul. ' Grey Poindexter overcame his poignant regret in time, and put in rather a good time of it, until his friends conceived the idea that at the age of W it was high time he was mar ried, and proceeded to act upon this id 'a vig orously, picked out a young debutante of the haute bougeiosie with a desirable dot, and started an energetic case of match-making. Being accustomed to let fate decide things for him, be let himself drift into this She was an unobjectionable young person, who 'was good enough to imagine herself in love with him; and really it was time he should ranger himself.' It is, without doul. very unsafe to allow one's friends to marry one off. They are apt to make mistakes and to refuse to bear the blame, as Mr. Poindexter. rapidly discovered. His wife was nut a bad woman; Indeed, according to her tights, she was a very good one, but their lights were of a very dif ferent nature.' She bad a code of the duties of married people in wbicb was the afore mentioned blue bow and she lived up to it with a rigidity beside which Draco wan n fool, and expected the same of her husband. Her Brat and great tenet was tu the effort that two persons who had committed matrimony had no ate for the oubdde world; it was useless to mildly suggest that they, might eventually bore one another: that wan nonsense he never got bored ; her. nceptioti of married liie was to crochet in the evening by toe drop light, and that her husband ahould sit by in slippeis and dressing gown, and read, or dose, as he pleased. Grey Poindextei naturally loathe 1 a dressing gown and slippers; but be tried her recipe for happiness for more than a year, and then mildly re pro sea tod . that weak : human . nature ' could not stand such" exjoessive . pleasure; .wild delights of that nature were exhausting sod he must recruit bimif occasionally by a wretched evening at the club, or perish, seeing she utterly repudiated the theatre and would neither eutertain nor be entertained. So it seemed no breach of failure that be should spend ' an occasional evouing at Mrs. Paul's. There were always a number of men and frequently women there, people of bis .own set, whom be had seen tUtlu of siuce lus ... wuiubtt wnospeut.erjiiiawsyrrotn their babies, and she saw'disUnct In'V j In the art; in the class in Urbich ghe had lived . such a thing was unheard of.

Un. Poindexter ww rooted in all the pre judice tf litir ruuM, wishing for nothing be- j yoiwi tne roiin'i oi uer uwnwi -- - - to her bustiand such state of mind was in eomprebeiiKilile Ufe was of no u tobbn if be was to be always Iwred, and a solitude a deux did bore him. Change was imposaiblo to either; their sentiments were inherited with their blood and strengthened by educa i..n Kotlvnir domestic scenes became of a nature unpleasant to a degree; to Grey her feelings were but a petty jealousy to which be would not submit, knowing himself inno cent. To ber his course eexued one of heart less infidelity; she could not conceive of mere friemUhip between a man and woman after marriage of either party. She bail no ex perience ot it and she could not Iwlieve it in-tuM-ent. She reproached, she sulked, she fscolded and Anally resorted to floods of tear. Mr. l'olndestw met each mood w'th civility, but much e ideut ennui, aud when the tears came, was filled with cold disgust. Let no woman weep at a man unless she is very ture ot bis affection for Iter. "1 tell you," she said one morning, set ting lir teeth together aud her eye dashing, "if you do not give this woman up you uiusi give me up. 1 have stood this as long as I wilL You shall not go there." .Don't make rash assertions, Fanny. I think it probable that I will go there. - You do jxot permit me, to meet my friends here. I seek them elsewhere. As for Mrs. Paul, she is a lovely woman. wh.- would have been j your friend bad you permitted it, and your insane jealousy is an msuit to us iu. And to hs credit, be it said, he closed the door with no unusual emphasis. Left alone, Mrs. Poindexter fell among the pillows in an agony of grief, raje, and despair. If her husband corM have been contented with her alone she would have Iwon capable of utter devotion, but sue felt now tl.it she hated him. Grey felt the quiet, gracious beauty of Mrs. Paul's irtutic rooms and a soothing xmtrast to the tambour curtains and blue and yellow "set" of her own drawing-room. Nor were her eowns less perfect: he won ilorMil ' whv all the women did r ' drees like her; it" was obvious velvet was the garment for a woman, and one night rominr in and finding her at the dinner . table in lace, sewn with pearls und farina : violets, at her breast, be instantly added lace to the proper feminine fabrics. He could not come to dinner for bis wife had refused all social intercourse and he could not be asked without her, but be dropped in to de sert sometimes, when the serious business of : eatinz was over and wine hail made glad tho : heart of niau aud woman and clever their ton trues. "Come, Grey, and sit beside mof" cried his cousin. Amv Childers. sweeping aside her draperies as he came in. "I havn't seen you for ah age. Your wife will not return my numerous calls, and I am ashamed to go auy more, even to see yOu." He smiled gently as he took the seat be side her and pressed her little jeweled hand. "Well, as I was saying," she continued, ad dressinz the table at large, "t had gotten to that stage of wickedness when I could be no lougr repressed. I was absolutely vicious; so there was but one course to pursue. Yon know what a girl always does when she gets utterly reckless" "I know," said Grey, "but I'm not going to give you away aud spoil your story by tell ing." 'V by. of course, I went and bod my pic ture taken I" "Howl" cried Col. Boynton, in meek alarm. 'not ridinz a bicycle!" - "No. I thought of that and top boots, but neither seemed quite to fill the void, mo turned m v I tack on the camera, and 1 flatter myself I liave un original -looking photo graph." . ''Yoor backsliding are not as sernnM as I feared," laughed Urey, "I move," cried Mrs. Paul, "that this feeble pun bo reiwived with tho contempt it deserves." , 'Certainly; Mr Poindexter, you are uniwi imously requested to take that bak." "Impossible. The khntograpbtr has al ready taken th it back." "Painful t behold a noble intellect in r'lins." murmured Ceeil twsou. In a con fidential tone.
