HEN Basil wrote to me from Vir ginia that he was married, and asked If he might bring Ills wife to my house, his home from Infancy, or If he had better pro vide another one for her, I answered at once: "Come here and try It. If you are happy, stay; If not. It will be time enough to seek n new home after test ing the old one.” But the letter gave me sore pain. Basil was my charge from the time Ills parents died and left him, a baby. Inheriting a large fortune (o my care. His mother was my twin sister, and I was a childless widow when she died, so It will be readily understood that I gave the boy a true mother's love. We live at. Stony Hill, my husband's lega cy to me, n spot abounding In Nature's beauties. In spite of Its harsh name, and we did not want for society, being only two miles from a flourishing city. It was natural Basil should marry; he was twenty-two, had studied a pro fession, though he devoted his time to painting In an amateur fashion that promised no great results; was wealthy, handsome and a thorough gentleman by birth and education. But I bad hoped he would marry one of the Indies I knew; some one, per haps, f loved already. His letter was full of praise of Ills wife but who was she? He had found her when on a sketching trip through Virginia, In a wild part of the country. Her mother was lying dead, and two old negroes were filling the air with howls mid wnlln I did not care that the girl was poor. Basil was rich, and would have, In ad dition to his father's fortune, all I had to leave. He had no need to seek a wealthy bride. But I was afraid he had married for beauty oniv. Not. one word could I And, In most careful pe rusal. In praise of the bride's Intellect, accomplishments, or worth. Only her beauty was the theme of her hus band's praise. When I »avv her I scarcely wondered that the face of Basil’s wife had ex cited such enthusiasm. They came home In June, at early morning, and drove from the station to the house, where, Just after sunrise, I went out upon the porch to meet them. From the carriage there sprung a lit tle figure dressed In all the eolorsof the rainbow, bedecked with Jewels utterly out of place upon a traveler, as were the gay silk dress and feather-trimmed bat. But the face under the hat! How can I describe It? A perfect oval, with features of classic regularity, hut with out any of the coldness that usually ac companies classic beauty. For the dark complexion, pure, clear olive, was crlmaon-tlnted on lips and cheeks, the eyes, large, brilliant eyes, were yet ■oft and velvety, and the black hair was glossy and luxuriant. Every moment the expression was changed In those glorious eyes, the sensitive mouth. Child-llke pleasure MY WIFE." In the new home, a gentle deference to my years and position, were succeeded by petulance and restless vivacity. "Do, Aunt Martha, take acme super vision of her wardrobe," he said to me. "She was married In a calico dress and a sun-bonnet, and her feet were bnre. Of course 1 gave her money, und she bought what she pleased. I don't understand women's dress, but hers set my teeth on edge.” And Just us he spoke she (lushed tn. She never seemed to me to walk, moving with a peculiar, darting move ment that threatened total annihilation tn my nerves until I became accustom ed to It. "You are ashamed of me!" she cried. "You are! You are'" "Ellen!" he said, gently, his face flushing; "l can never be ashamed of my wife!" He kissed her gravely and went out, but she tore up and dowu the room like a raged bird "He Is ashamed of me he Is'" she repeated, angry tears raining over her hot checks "I saw It on the cars I saw It at the hotels. I see It here! How did I know he would be? He eald he loved me, and I I would have died far him! He praised me he put me in hta pictures! He asked me to be his vtfe1 I eat nil alone and I loved him* I married him. but he never aahed me what I knew what I could jo He saw the log cahta where mv mother lay dead* He haew the sol ,lier* burned down ><ur house, hilled my 1st her* I was loo young to know the horror of ill I nm only slateea now Then when we wer* married and wevvl to the city, ho was ashanmd becanee he ashed me in rend the newspaper one morning and I never learned in read Why dids t he ash me before we werw married* He told me I must go* Ml , wNh my bath or wipe my Angers m my dresa. Why didn’t he tell me be fore we were married? Why didn't he go away and leave me? I would have killed myself! I had rather kill myself than know be is ashamed of me!” All this was poured out with surh rapid utterance I could not Interrupt her by one word, and I might as well have tried to catch a butterfly as to touch her as she pared up and down. "And now I set his teeth cm edge! I was not listening. I heard him us t c ame In. I never bought things before. They told me at the atoreu what to buy. and all they showed me were prelty! Why did he not come, too, and tell me? I hat< him! Oh I love him! I love him, and he Is ashamed of me!" She was gleeful as a child when Basil praised her dress at tea time, having, at my suggestion, worn a soft, white mull, with scarlet flashing In her Jelty braids at Iter throat utid belt, She pouted u little, because I would not al low Imt one bright eolor, but was obedient. But after that, watching (hem both, I knew there could be no happiness In the hasty marriage. The glamour was gone from Basil's eyes, and he was ashamed of Ills wlfp. Ills love cooled, and his perfect gentleness and tender care never deceived her for one mo ment, 1 think If lie line] beaten her and them caressed her she would have borne It better than she bore his unvarying kindness, after Ills love was gone, "lie does not love me! He ban wearied of my beauty, and I had noth ing else to love!” That was ever the refrain of her piteous plaints, and Basil vainly tried to revive the dead love In his heart. "She has but me!” he said to tne once. "If I made a mistake It was no fault of hers, poor darling. Hhe shall never know 1 have one regret!" And he might as well have tried to hide a bonfire under a napkin. Ily the Intuition of love, Nell knew the change. Hhc had been u year married, wearing herself out with her own vehemence, when her baby came to her. I hoped motherhood would soften her, would ipme her, for she was wild and beauti ful as a leopard. With the uarao fierce, unreasoning passion that gave her life every Im pulse, she loved her hoy, a sickly, feeble child, that she would almost smother with kisses and caress so vio lently that he would whimper, as if being hurt, livery day she talked about the boy's future, the grand things to be done for him, the education he was to have, that Basil might, "never bo ashamed of him as he Is of me." Her whole hope lay In the child's life, and we knew the feeble spark would never live to be a bright light. Ah the child drooped the mother faded. Hhe would he well soon, soon, she told me every duy, and every day the little form lay more lightly upon my arms; the little face grew more pinched and wau. One morning she drew' me down up on the plliow her head had never left since her hoy wae born, and whispered: "Basil kissed me with his heart this morning. He loved me in that kiss. Ah, If I could die now before be ceases to love me!" She sobbed, uot with the old pas sion, she was loo weak for that, but feebly, as If from a breaking heart. "You do not wish to die and leave your hoy?" I said. "I would not leave him! He would go with me!” she said, with quiet con viction. And we knew It would he so. There was nothing to build health upon, the doctor told us, and Kllen faded away, not quickly, but surely. But, lying upon her deathbed, day after day, she was Intensely happy, not with the fitful flame of old, hut with a calm, deep joy Infinitely pathetic to witness. "Basil loves me!" That was the keynote to her happl ness. He had never failed In gentle ness, but, realizing that he must soon lose her, his love came back to comfort her. He could not have deceived her, weak an Hhe was. Only the true love she had lost, the love that was her life, could have answered the hunger of hei heart. And Uasll gave It, kissing hei with his heart, as alie told me, gently smoothing the dark roud she was tread ing by every loving device, seldom leaving her, anil never for any length of time. He was holding the puny babe in his aims, close to the mother's white wasted face, when the boy shivered gasped and died. 1 looked in terror al Kllen, but she smiled Into my eyes “He will wait for me!” she said, soft ly, and nestled against Itasil, us I tooli the little one away, 1 did uui return for a long time When I did Kllen's eye# were closet) and her fare hud rhuuged, with t change that chilled my heart.
