Here shall those hairs turn wholly gray;
These feet shall never learn to stray;
But I will die xv here 1 was born."

time to dash away the tears.
"My darling," he hid cried aghast,
"what is the trouble?"
"Nothing, John nothing!" she had
answeie 1. "Only only it is so long
fciiiec 1 jil c-'d toy feet on a sod ot
preen gras-. And I was thinking that
tin; old oivhtrd would he in tdos.soni,
just at this time; and tiie meadow un

'I).iii'.. lii, are you homesick?"
'Xo. .Tub n iiiiteed, no !" 8lie cried.

Hut Dali'o ul try ing to Einilc as sho
tied her pink bo.inc -sitings, ilid not
tell him of t':o long visit she had front
old Mrs. Mudgc, who declared that
'blic li:ul al'yb loved John Grey as if
he had been her own son,' and had
prueiedo 1 to edify his bride with a
Ciicumi-Liutial account of all the mis
chief he liad gotten into, ail the love
tangles in which he lrd been involved
ail the luili'-cngagemeiits into which
he had been drawn, until poor D.ill'o
dil lei t :.s if her John Grey and this
gay Lothario mut be two quite ilif
lcreni bc.ngs.
"An 1 xvc arc all supposed, inydear,"
6aid Mrs. iludge, comioriaLily taking
Enull, that he was to marry Olive
j Do'iworth, tlio actress, when he up
! and brought you home. Dear, ile.tr I
! what llii'is men arc! Ain't they now,
my dear '
'1 puppus" so," faid poor Daffodil,
intent tijion the stitches of her strip
i ot em iroHlery.
j 4,1 hpc you'll come and see inc oft
l en,"' saiil Mis. Mu.lge, sc. ting down
lier tea-cup and lakii.g up her big red
j shawl.
'1 bhall be vcrv happy," baid Daf
fodil. "And xve'll have ever so manr nice
! confidential chats," Kiid Mrs. Mttxlge.
Yes,"8.iid Dail'odil, faintly.
And after Mrs. Mudgc had sroue
away, poor Dalfo.lil sat'antl wondered
f what made her s.j wretched, the
could hear wine one moving about
I overhead. Son.o one liad told her
j that a young artist had just reined the
top floor of the Fontaine Flats.
I the wondered vaguely what he was
like, and whether lie, too, was a hu
man butterfly lighting on every flow
er and constant to none.
She asked herself whether fat Mr.
4 .Smith, who went out lrotn the suite
' ' of npar.inents below everv day with a
?I silk umbrella under" bis arm. .Ivod
chin, had his amiable weaknesses like
wise. "1 almost wish," said Daffodil to
herself, "that 1 had remained unmar
ried. No I don't either I 11 don't
know what I do wish !
So, woman-like, Dahodil had begun
to cry.
Dut the pleastnt twilight walk in
the park, and the melodious whisileot'
the robin at the bird fancier's, had
cheered her up again, for the time be
ing. lint phe could not be biind to the
fact thai John was not. x ith her po
much as during the live weeks after
their marri i,;e. Now and .mam of an
evening he would he ab.-ent without a
sulli. ient excuse, and, wi i h a smoth
ered pang :'.t her heart. I) lloilil hid
thought ol U;ie I) dweuh, tne bril
liant young actress, even then playing1
al one of the minor citx tli"itter.
"l).rs he c ite for her yet'. ' Daffodil
asketl lier-elf; and there c uno no t,at
isftctory answ'er to tiie .jucry.
And so it happened tint to-nigh'. as
she stood amoiicT i:er geraniunis, look
in z out at the stniset, was u t .juiie
hajipy.
"In old time-," ki' 1 A's bi l l ' of
si months tohei-;-li'. "John was al
wavs hoiu.i to take me lor a walk iu
the tw ilight, lie never thinks of it
now.
Were Aunt .Toea-tt and Mr;. Mu l-e
rieht. alter all? Was man a delusion,
nn I life a dreary scries of di.-appoiut-menis?
A- t'.c-e di-p:riiiiii r lb 1 1 1 . us pis;
ed through her mind, she was starlle I
bv the u ne x pee ted s uind of a footstep
on the floor a footstep too licdit and
clastic to he thai ot her hu-biii.l.
She t urif 'd. and was am ie 1 to see,
in the iudi-tiuet light, the tall figure
of a beatiiiful young lady, richly ures--cd,
and Wearing sueh a Parisian bon
net as poor Daifodil had never seen
before.
"I'arilon me for intruding," said the
lady, wiih a ro al air, "but arc these
Mr. Grey's rooms?"
'They are," paid Daffodil, summon
ing all "the dignity at her control, and
Becretly wondering if this might not
be the bctc noire ot her thoughts and
lancies Miss Dodworih. "lint I did
not hear you knock."
"I did not kno.- k," said the anony
mous lair one, xvitli hauteur.
D .lfodil colored.
"1 am Mrs. Grey," paid she quickly.
"Pardon me," said the lady, "1 am
Mrs. Grey. 1 suspected something ot
this new order of things," xvith a con
temptuous curl of her lij, "and I have
came on from Chicago to counteract
it."
"Madame," said D ifiodill, standing
very erect, although she could feci
herself lie bling all over, "you mils'
be insane ! 1 was married to Mr. Grey
on the first day of last January."
The lady laughed a hard, mirthless
laugh'
"Indeed!" said she. And I was mar
ried to him on the Gih of October, two
years ago. Poor child!" as the pallor
overspread Dalf dil's countenance, "I
don'l suppose i'it are to blame, but iu
this hard world we have to suifcr for
one another's crimes. Where is he?"
"1 don't know," faintly admitted
the bride.
"Humph!" said the lady, compress
ing her lips, "llcisat his old tricks,
1 .sec Well lean wait. Ymi don't
nsk me to be sealed, but I shall take
that liberty xvilhoutyoiir permis .ion."
And -he sat down, flinging h.ck the
ftl.i-.oi' her rich India shaxvl, while
Dall'od.l watch'.d her with silent dis
mav. Was this true? Il.id Joint Grey
renlly deceived her? He whom she
had loved so entirely, trusted so infin
itely? If this was re dly so, iheie was
no truth in ail the world!
Tiie fhadows gradually deepened;
the clock on the mantel ticked as biis
il v its if it were running a race again-t
time an 1st, II the two sit there, sil

longing, lo hear Joan Grey's looisteps

"Is this gentleman your hiinbaud?"
6he said, tiie color varying on her
cheek.
'lie is," Daifodil mechanically re
plied. 'There i3 some mistake," said the
strtn:er, xvith vi-ible embarrassment.
"This is not the Mr. Grey 1 mean. My
