CHAPTER XT7. ( CosTiKCEn. )
"You will not die , I bore it. and still
live ; and it is so much harder for me ,
because I "nave to bear it all alone. You
have your religion to help you , Margie.
Surely that will bear you up ! I have
heard all you pious people prate enough
of its service in time of trouble to re
member that consolation. "
"Don't , Alexandrine. It is sinful to
scorn God's holy religion. Yes. you are
right : ? t will help me. God himself
will help me , if I ask him. He knows
how much I stand in need of it. "
"I am glad you are so likely to be sup
ported. " returned the girl , half earn
estly , hnlf-contemptuously. "Are you
satisfied in regard to Mr. Archer Trev-
lyn ? "
"I will not credit it ! " cried Margie ,
pp-sionately. "He did not do that
deed ! He could not ! So good , and
noble , and pitiful of all suffering hu
manity ! And beside , what motive could
he have ? "
"The motive was all-powerful. Has
not Mr. Trevlyn , by his own confession ,
loved jou from his youth up ? " .
"Yes. "
"And Paul Linmere was about to be
come vour husband. Could there be a
more potent reason for Archer Trevlyn
to desire Mr. Linmere's death ? He
was an obstacle which could be re
moved in no other way thanbydealh.be-
cause you had promised your father to
marry him , and you could not falsify
your word. AH men arp weak nnd lia
ble to sin : is Trevlyn any exception ?
Margie , I have told you frankly what I
know. You can credit it or not. I
leave it with you : decide it as you think
best. It is eight o'clock. 1 will go
now , for it is time for your lover to
come for you. "
" 0.1 cannot meet him not to-night !
I must have time to think time to col
lect my thoughts ! My head whirls so.
and everything is so dark ! Stay. Al
exandrine , and excuse me to him. Say
I have a headache anything to quiet
him. I cannot see him now ! I should
go mad ! Let me have a night to think
of it ! "
Alexandrine put her hand on the soft
hair of the bowed head.
"My poor Margie ! it is hard for you.
Hark ! there is the bell. He has come.
Will you not go down ? "
"No , no , no ! Do what you judge best ,
and leave me to myself and my God. "
Alexandrine went out , and Margie ,
locking the door after her , flung her
self down on the carpet and buried her
face in the pillows of the sofa.
Miss Lee swept down the staircase ,
her dark , bright face resplendent , her
bearing haughty as that of an empress.
Arch was in the parlor. He looked up
eagerly as the door opened , but his
countenance fell when he saw that it
was only Miss Lee. She greeted him
cordially.
"Good evening. Mr. Trevlyn. 1 am
deputized to receive you. and my good
intentions must be accepted in place of
more fervent demonstrations. "
"I.am happy to see you. Miss Lee.
Where is Margie ? "
"She is in her room , somewhat indis
posed. She begged me to ask you to
excuse her , as she is unable to come
down , and of course cannot have the
pleasure of going with you to the opera. "
"Sick ? Margie sick ! " he exclaimed ,
anxiously. "What can be the matter ?
She was well enough three hours ago. "
" 0 , do not be uneasy. It is nothing
serious. A headache , I think. She
will be well after a night's rest. Can
not I prevail on you to sit down ? "
"I think not. to-night , thank you. I
will call to-morrow. Give Margie my
best love , and tell her how sorry 1 am
that she is ill. "
Alexandrine promised , and Mr. Trev
lyn bowed himself out. She put her
'hand to her forehead , which seemed al-
most bursting with the strange weight
there.
"Guilty or not guilty. " she muttered ,
"what does it matter to me ? I love
him , and that is enough ! "
CHAPTER XV.
I '
HE long mgnt
passed away , as all
nights , however
long and dark they
• may be. will pass
away.
> Margie bad not
slept She had
paced her chamber
until longaftermid-
night , utterly dis
regarding Alexan
drine , who had knocked repeatedly at
her. door.-and-at last , overcome by
• weariness , she had ? sunk down in a
chair . by the open window , and sat
there/gazing blankly out into the night ,
with its purple heavens , and its glory
of sparkling stars.
Nothing could have tempted Margie to
nave credited such a story of her lover ,
had it not been for the overwhelming
evidence of her own senses. Ever since
the night of Paul Linmere's assassina
tion , she had at times been tortured
with agonizing doubts. From the first
she had been morally sure whose lips
had touched her hand that night in the
graveyard : she knew that no other pres
ence tnan that of Archer Trevlyn had
the power to influence her as she had
been influenced. She knew that he had
been there , though she had not seen
him ; and tor what purpose had he been
there ? It was a question she had asked
herself a thousand times !
There could be no doubt any longer.
She wss forced to that conclusion at
last ; her heart sinking like lead in her
bosom as she came to acknowledge it
In a moment of terrible temptation ,
Arch Trevlyn had stained his hand with
blood ! And for her sake !
There was a violent warfare in her
heart Her love for Archer Trevlyn
had not sprung up In a day : its growth
had been slow , and it had taken deep
root Oh , how hard it was to give up
the blissful dream ! She thought of his
early life how it had been full of
temptation how his noble nature had
been warped and perverted by the evil
influences that had surrounded him , *
and for a while the temptation was
strong upon her soul to forgive him
everything to ignore all the past , anl
take him into her life as though the
fearful story she had just listened to
had been untold. Marry a murderar !
"Oh , God ! " she cried in horror , as the
whole extent of the truth burst upon
her : "Oh. my God. pity and aid me ! "
She sank down on her knees , and
though her lips uttered no sound , hr
heart prayed as only hearts can prav
when wrung with mortal suffering.
Archer Trevlyn must be given up : from
that there could be no appeal. Hence
forth he must be to her as though he
had never been. She must put him en
tirely out of her life out * of her
thonghtF out of her sleeping and wak
ing dreams.
But she could give him no explana
tion of her change of mind. She had
passei her word nay , she had sworn
never to reveal aught that Miss Lee
had told her. and a promise was bind
ing. But he would not need any ex
planation. His own guilty conscience
would tell him why he was renounced.
She took off the rose-colored dress in
which she had arrayed herself to meet
him , and folded it away in a drawer
of her wradrohe. together with every
other adornment that she had worn
that night. They would always be her
painful reminders of that terrible sea
son of anguish and despair. When all
were in , she shut them away from her
sight , turned the key upon them , and
flung it far out of the window.
Then she opened her writing desk ,
and took out all the little notes he had
written to her , read them all over , and
holding them one by one to the blaze
of the lamp , watched them with a sort
of stony calmness until they shrivelled
and fell in ashes , black as her hopes ,
to the floor. Then his gifts ; a few sim
ple things. Those she did not look at ;
she put them hastily in a box , sealel
them up. and wrote his address on the
cover.
The last task was the hardest. She-
must write him a note , telling him that
all was over between them. The gray
light of a clouded morning found her
making the effort. But for a long time
her pen refused to move ; her hand
seemed powerless. She felt weak and
helpless as a very infant. But it was
done at last , and she read it over , won
dering that she was alive to read it : •
"Mr. Archer Trevlyn , Sir : Yesterday
afternoon , when I last isaw you , 1 did
not think that before twenty-four hours
had elapsed I should be under the
necessity of inditing to you this letter.
Henceforth , you and 1 must be as
strangers. Not all the wealth and in
fluence of the universe could tempt mete
to become your wife , now that my eyes
are opened. I renounce you utterly
and entirely , and no word or argument
of yours can change me. Therefore , do
not attempt to see me. for with my own
consent I will never look upon your
face again. 1 deem no explanation
necessary ; your own conscience will tell
you why 1 have been forced to make
this decision. I return to you with this
note everything that can serve to re
mind me of you , and ask you to do me
the favor to burn all that you may
have in your possession which once
was mine. Farewell , now and forever.
"MARGARET HARRISON. "
There remained still something more
to be done. Margie knew that Archer
Trevlyn would seek her out , and de
mand an explanation from her owu
lips , and this must never he. She could
not see him now ; she was not certain
that she could ever see him again. She
dared not risk the influence his personal - I
sonal presence might have upon ser. j j
She must leave New York. But where
should she go ? She had scarcely asked j '
the question before thought answered ;
;
her. ' '
Far away in the northern part of New j
Hampshire , resided old Nellie Day , the
(
woman who had nursed her. and whom
she had not seen for twelve years.
Nellie was a very quiet , discreet person ,
and had been very warmly attached to
the Harrison family. She had married
late in life a worthy farmer , and giving
up her situation in New York , had gone
with him to the little out-of-the-way
village of Lightfield. Margie had kept
up a sort of desultory correspondence
with her , and in every letter that the
old lady wrote she had urged Margie
to visit her in her country home. It
had never been convenient to do so , hut'
.
now this place was suggested to her at
once , and to Lightfield she decided to
go.
She consulted her watch. It was 5 j
o'clock ; the train for the north , the first j
express , left at half past six „ There { j
would be time. She would leave all i
\
her business affairs in the handstof Mr. '
Farley , her legal adviser and general J I
manager ; and as to the house , the
maiden aunt who resided with her
could keep up the establishment until
her return , if she ever did return.
She paefced a few of her plainest j j
dresses and some other indlspensables ,
in a trunk , arrayed herself in a dark
traveling suit , and rang for Florine.
The girl looked at her in silent amaze
ment Margie steadied her voice , and
spoke carelessly enough.
"Florine , I have been obliged to leave
home very suddenly. My preparations
.are all complete. I thought I wouM
not wake you as I had so little to do.
Tell Peter to have the carriage at the
door at six precisely , and bring up Leo's
breakfast , and a cup of hot coffee for
me. "
At six o'clock having written a note
to Mr Farley , and one to her aunt , giv
ing no explanations , but merely saying
Fhe had been called away she put on
he | bonnet , entered the carriage and
was driven to the depot. And before
nine-tenths of New York had thought
of leaving their bedB. she was being
whirled rapidly northward , her only
companion Leo , who , watchful and
alert , lav curled up on the seat heElde
her.
CHAPTER XVI.
, HCHER TREV-
/ lyn had not slept
that night. Some
sense of impending
evil , some demon of
uneasiness oppressed -
pressed him
strangely. He
tossed about until
daybreak , then he
rose , dressed him
self , and went out.
Everything was still on the streets ex
cept the clatter of the milk carts , and
the early dra3's and huckster wagons.
The ar ! was damp and dense , and
struck a deadly chill to the very mar
row of this unseasonable wanderer. He
walked a few squares , and then re
turned to his hotel , more oppressed
than when he went out.
Did ever time move so slowly before ?
Would the morning never pass ? He
wrote some urgent letters , read the
damp morning paper , without the
slightest notion of contents , and went
down to his breakfast , to come away
again leaving it untasted. Eight
'o'clock. i The earliest possible hour at
which it would be proper to call on Miss
Harrison was eleven. Three mortal
hours first ! How could he ever endure
't ? She might be very HI. She might
even be dying ! Archer , with the fool
ish inconsistency- love , magnified
every evil until he was nearly beside
himself with dread , lest she might be
worse than Miss Lee had represented.
Nine o'clock struck ; he was walking
the floor in a state of nervous excite
ment which would have forced him ere
long to have broken all rules of eti
quette and taken his way to Harrison
House , had not fate saved him the
necessity.
A waiter entered , and brought in a
letter and a package. He snatched
them both , and saw they were di-
rectel in Margie's handwriting. For
a moment his heart stood still with a
deadly fear. Great drops of perspira
tion covered his forehead , and he
dropped letter and package to the floor.
Why was she writing to him when she
must expect to see him in a few hours ?
And that package ! W'hat did it con
tain ?
He picked it up , and tore off the wrap
pings. The betrothal ring rolled out
and fell with a hollow sound on the
floor. The ring he had put upon her
finger the ring he had seen her kiss
more than once ! He looked over the
contents of the box hurriedly ; every
little thing he had ever given her was
there , even to a bunch of faded violets !
But the letter ? He had almost for
gotten it , in pondering over the dread
significance of the return of his pres
ents. He took it up and broke the seal
with slow deliberation. It would not
tell him any news , but it might contain
an explanation. His face grew pale as
ashes as he read , and he put his hand
to his heart , as though he had received
a blow there. Twice he read it through ,
and at the last reading he seemed to
• realize its dread portent.
( TO BE CONTINUED. )
A SOCIAL RECREATION.
Entirely ! New Method by a Few Frlenda
Tired of Daiicinfr.
Women who are in straits for unique
methods of entertaining might do worse
than to listen here , says the Philadel
phia Press. The scene is laid in Phila
delphia and the action in all its detail
transpired in the heart of this city , so
proverbially far-famed for the slowness -
ness of its social gait and limitations of
its pleasure-going capacities. There
was a certain club of "blase" bachelors
whose average age was probably about
18. Those worn-out veterans , who already -
ready know all there is to know , determined -
mined to give a dinner , which should
be distinctly unique , so for weeks the
prime movers thereof cast about them
for the happy thought which would in
sure the success of their "feed. " At
last they found it. Then they bid some
choice and favored brother spirits to
the feast , demanding of them only one
thing i. e. , that each guest should
bring with him something he had
stolen. The night arrived and with it
the company , and then the scheme upon
which the novelty of the entertainment
depended was put into execution. As
each man ( ? ) took his place he was
asked to produce his transferred contri
bution. Immediately forth from every '
pocket came a spoon. It is safe to say '
that all the prominent eating-houses of
the city were represented in Jhat ; col-
lection of souvenirs , the favorites being
in the lead , of course. One ice-cream
soda stand was all unwittingly poorer
by six of these donated spoons. And
the youths for the time being forgot
their ennui and were "bojrs again. "
Let friendship creep gently to a '
height ; if it rush to it it may soon run '
out of breath.
They Might Have to Vnwn.
"It is asserted now , " he said ,
thoughtfully , "that a Chinaman never
yawns. If that is so "
He paused and for a moment seemed
buried in thought.
"If that is so , " he repeated , turning
to his companion , "I feel that I may
assert with perfect bafety that no
Chinaman ever met you when you
were in a story-telling mood. "
Then he chuckled softly to himself
and felt avenged for the hour that he
had put in listening to talcs of preco
cious infants. Chicago Post
