it was impossible to forget. Perhaps. If
ho ically weto in earnest in Ills piom

denied her.
"I will try to remember only that you
are my husband." she said gent I v.
"And I shall try lodeserio such wife
ly forbearance," ho responded, with
great earnestness.
But In a month, or a little more, the
unhappy wife was assured that this was
Lilt a paroxysmal contrition. Tho old
habits won strong mid the man was
pitifully weak so weak that the famil
iar besetting sins conquered hi tit anew,
and dragged him into deeper lisipa-
'ions man oxer iieioro.
A more dreary sadness settled upon
Thoo's ialo young face, and a heavier
ami more Hopeless melancholy upon her
heart.
Finally, when she had boon loss than
two years his wife. Unfits Aldrich ills
appeared. It was known that while Intoxicated
ho had sold his tine hoiuo for half its
value, had drawn tho money and left
tho place. But those wore tho solo facts
that could lie ascertained, and for live
ears fate was shrouded in impenetra
ble mystery.
In the meantime Thoo had realized
from tho sale of hor jewelry and other
cotly articles that were neither useful
to her nor precious us souxenirs, a sum
sutllcioutly largo to purchase a small
cottage that had belonged to tho hand
some estate, and hero she lived iu peace
ful seclusion.
Since that night on tho sands she had
noxer seen Waldemar Beresford. He
had gone to Kuropc n few days after,
and since thon the beautiful house with
the brown gables looming among the
noble trees had Ix-en deserted.
But at tho end of those five years bo
came back, and though still unmarried,
proceeded to occupy the tine old place.
He pmxed to bo as incorrigible a re
cluse as oxvii the pale wdinan whom ho
did not meet until mouths after his re
turn. Thox mot in a commonplace way; they
looked upou each other with unsmiling
eyo and s'loku to each other with un
smiling lips.
"If he had never loved me I could
be no les to him." thought tho wo
man." "She cares less for mo than for a
stranger," thought the man.
And they llvrsl their separate solitary
live, meeting infrequently, and nexer
when it was possible to avoid such an
event, until several more roars had
passed.
One inclement night, when tho snow
lay in groat melting masses on tho
ground, and the thick sheets of blind
ing rain made the dark night darker
still, thfrc came an imperious rapping
at Thoo's door.
When she opened It she saw standing
on tho threshold Waldemar Beresford
supporting a limp, drenched form,
which was scantily clothed In the un
sightly habiliments of a vagalxmd
tramp.
"1 lieg your pardon," ho said for
bringing this poor wretch to vour door.
He is dead or dying, and I found him
lying justs inside your gat. If you
can give him shelter for a fexv moments.
I will go for some person who will
take him to a place provided for such
as he."
Theo consented somewhat reluctant
ly, for she had a positive horror of those
wandering lazzaroui.
