'I'll** lions** loomed desolate as Cyo thin came toward it. The branches of the trees shedding their summer j leaves were desolate too. The leaves crackled beneath Cynthia’s feet as she went on up the garden path to the j pillared veranda, years of silence and decay showed everywhere. She drew | her fur about her throat as she sat j upon the highest step to look the old place over, the dear old place that had been her girlhood’s home, this wist fully sweet woman had but to close j her eyes to people, the deserted rooms with faces, long absent. There her square piano had stood, and at tfie opposite end of the Impressive parlor ; had been the pier glass. A winsome J picture that pier glass had often re- j fleeted, a girlish vision of floating ruf- 1 (lev. with happy shining eyes beneath softly wavy hair. Cynthia remembered I the vision of herself, as she sat, and J saw it again at Its fairest clad in bridal array. In satin s.Ippers the girl Cynthia had danced down the room, her white veil sweeping after, and he had called tier “the lovliest vision in the world.” But that was before the kiss. Such a simple happening to change the tenor of one’s life—ns it had changed Cyn thia’s. There were two suitors, you see, big Will Lefton. poor, adoring and unrewarded. And Barton Swift, rich by Inheritance, successful In busi ness. By no virtue of his riches had Cynthia chosen, but because of her love for him. with all the Time a re gretful ache at the hack of her happi ness. because of poor Will’s sorrow. Not that Will was cowardly In defeat, his outward manner was his bravest best; Barton was wildly triumphant, his laughter rung out all the day long, the day of his wedding to be With other friends he and Cynthia had festooned the hallways and rooms with flowers. In her white robes she I had laughingly defied superstition for the admiration of her lover’s gaze, and Barton left enraptured, before the few brief hours proceeding the ceremony. As lie reached his own home in a bliss ful daze, lie found that he had forgot- j ten to execute a certain commission, ! and returned. Entering the long room, j his steps muffled by the thick carpet. Burton Swift beheld reflected In the pier glass, the picture which he never i forgot, and which no explanation could ! satisfy. Cynthia, still In her bridal i robes, was clasped close in the arms S of Will Lefton. and as Barton watched. Will bent for her kiss. When he raised his face from hers. Cynthia gave him no words of nnger, tears were on her cheeks. "You had better go now Lefton,” } Barton said sharply from the doorway, j and Will waiting only for C.vnthlR’s motion of dismissal had gone. "Well." Barton asked her with a sneering smile, "so It was my money after alt, j i «■ they said, and you loved Lefton j all the time.” White to the lips with j w ide horrified eyes, Cynthia made no reply. Mis sneering smile changed to j a harsh laugh. "Well, forewarned, forearmed,” Bar- j ton said cuttingly, his own pain mak ing him cruel, "Better to have found out In time—good-bye.” When I he girl found her voice she whs alone In the flower decked room. I.ater. as the wedding hour approached she had in desperation thrown a cloak about her shoulders and gone to Bar ton’s home to seek him. only to learn that he had rushed In to the house and out again with the brief word that lie would he long absent. So Cynthia like a crumpled white flower was found unconscious on the floor of her room, when the wedding guests came, mid the wedding had never been. Immediately, a kind j fattier had taken her to travel abroad, j since then she hail been here or there hs her fancy or friends dictated. And as the years parsed the old home be reft of Its owners was sold, and the money divided between the slaters.

Poor Will, he lied grieved deeply over the tragedy his rash act brought about. Cynthia wondered what sort of woman he hud married.

She recognized Will Lef toti at once, the same serious eyes. the patient face that years count nor touch with sternness. “Will," cried the woman, “how strange to meet you here, and un changed.” “Why, I am quite gray,” Will Lef ton said, as lie caught her hands, “but you are Just Pynthiu still. 1 came tit buy file old place,” he told her. “For—your—wife?"1 Cynthia ques tloned. “There hns never been but one wom an In the world for me.” he an Bwered sadly, “anil 1 spoiled her life —with a kiss.” Then Cynthia raised to him shin ing eyes. “Will Lefton," she asked, “Oh I are gnu sure of that?"
