XiiffliL Words Which Wrecked the Kappinoss of Two Lives. A cool breeze blew up from the river. Il played anions the rcnls and tall grasses on the bank ami ran lightly up the slope toward llie white mansion on tlio hillside, fluttering tin vines that fringed the wide piazza where :i group of young girls sat chatting, resting, or busying themselves with dainty needle work. "What a delicious breeze!" ex claimed Florence Freeman, rising :is nlie spoke. The slender, thoughtful looking young man reclining unseen in the depths of a large easy chair just within one of the long windows glanced up from the pages of a book in which lie had been absorbed, and his dark eyes followed her graceful figure ad miringly. "It sets me wild to be doing some thing,1' she continued, pacing up ami down the long porch, "Do 3011 know, girls," pausing abruptly, "we're :tct of slaves?" (, Florry!" exclaimed a laughing voice, "now don't give us a lecture on woman's rights!" "Never fear; that isn't what I was thinking of. We are hindered by cir cumstances from being and doing what we feel is within us to be and lo." "Listen, girls," interrupted another voice. "Florry is on her high horse. JN'ow we shall see some prancing." tiLattgh awiiy," returned Florence. TiOm earnest. Wli3mustwe, because we happen to have drifted into a certain channel, or because a particular course is marked out for us by friends, drift on dowtt the stream or keep on in the name course to the bitter end, even though wo must smother the best there is in our natures in doing so?" Intense feeling emphasized her words, and her unseen listener found himself wondering what personal ex perience had prompted them. A1113 Jray lifted her e-es. "Duty is often unpleasant," she said, "but it is best, after all, to have a m:1 tied plan and purpose and eling to them through everything. Think what :i chaos would result if we all followed our own inclinations, and, worse than that, whatever might for the moment be our ruling passion." Florence did not answer for a mo ment; her eyes were roving across the wide sweep of the river, where a white s-ail glimmered in the afternoon sun shine. " O. yes; there must be plans, of course, :i:id they must be carried out. or nothing would be accomplished. Hut tako special cases. There is cousin Dora, for instance. Win must she give tip her painting to marry Fred Long, merely Jiocausc she promised to when a mere "child ami didn't know what she wanted? Of course 1 don't say any thing against Fred. He is good as gold, but he can't appreciate her talents. Win, he has begun to interfere with licr'plans alread3. Says she works too Steadily, and wants her to give up some work she had undertaken in order to be married sooner. She only laughed over it. Of course she wouldn't say any thing, but we can all sec she doesn't love him. How can she, when he has no sympathy with her on that subject? Kdw, why "can't sho say so, and be free?" " She feels her responsibility," said Anvy's soft voice. "She knows how devoted Mr. Long is to her." "Sh-h! here she comes," whispered Edith Stanley as a bright-faced girl fluttered up "from the garden, like a daintv white butterfly, and perched herself on the steps. A dead silence fell on the group for a moment, and then Dora turned her laughing face toward her cousin: "Go on, T'lorry. You were giving a lecture, -weren't you? I could hear you ' orat- ing,' but couldu't catch a word of the discourse." "It's ended now," said Florence, coolly, mentally resolving never to bo so careless again in mentioning, "spe cial cases," ' and unless some one has taken notes you can never hope to know anything about it, for it was quite impromptu." And, taking her cousin's arm, she marched her up and down the niazza humming a gay air. Meanwhile, within tho windows the young man sat motionless, his linger still between the pages that only a few moments ago held htm spellbound, al though his world had fallen in ruin around him since Florence began her "lecture." Outside the breeze rang -.among the tree-tops and ruffled the shining bosom of the river. The August sunshine lay mellow on the grass, but he heard nothing, saw noth ing. The tea bell rang suddenly and startled him out of his meditations. The girls disappeared with much chat tcr and gaj laughter, and he rose me chanically and walked like one in a dream down through the garden and on into a little grove beyond, his one thought to be aionc where ao human eve could add to his torment with its questioning glance. There, under the trees, where he and Dora played in childhood, he walked to and fro, one sentence ringing in his ears like a sent ence of doom: " We can all see she doesn't love him." It was hard to come down from the pinnacle where he had imagined himself crowned king of one heart. When Dora, only fifteen, had given him her hand so confidingly as they walked together in this very grove only it was morning then, and spring time, and the air was filled with the scent of wild crab-apple blorms, and she wore them at her throat; how plainly he could see her now, all in whit', and the pink of her cheek so like the dainty blossoms he h:d taken the gift unquestionably, and no doubts had ever assailed him. He knew her devo tion to art and was proud of her suc cess, but he had never dreamed that it would bis his rival in her affections. "Have I baen so blind?" he ques tioned. "O, my little Dora!'' Something must be done, and that at once. Should he go to Dora and ask if lit eve things were trite? That would be like fc;tiiig: "Iluve you been deceiving me all these 3ears?"' He could not do it. He must wait, with what patience ho could, until he could deciib- for him self. He was very thankful that Dora had not quite decided to be married in 1'ie fall, as that would bu one test he could put her to. It is something to have an idea that can lie acted upon at once, and he retraced his steps toward the hotinu with this one purpose in view. How shall lie find a minute in which to ppeal: alone with Dora? He feels thath can not bear the biipeuiu until aiiotherdav shall come, and then mut ters to himself: "Fool! What if it must last a lifetime? What if I am never to know?" As he reached the piazza a girlish voice cried out cagerby: "O, Id r. Long! where have 3011 been hiding 3'ourself?" and in an in-tant he was surrounded 13 a laughing group, who scolded and questioned with such vivacity that their iciim found it unnecessaiy to say a word; it was, in fact, quite impossible. Then Dora rose from the piano. "Here, Dora!" cried Edith Stanly, "here is the deserter. What shall be done to him?" And thc3 led him be fore his brighl-tycd judge. Dora had never before seemed to him jti-t as she did at that moment so far away, as if a great ".oil were lixi'd between them. He could M:ircel believe in her bright looks, own thing seemed mi unreal, hit life was so shaken to its foundations. It was only by a great effort that he aroued him.iclf to make some commonplace excuse. Dora's lir-L careless glance at his pallid face '-hanged to one of alarm. The light from an open window fell upon it and she saw its deadly pallor. "Why. Fred!" she eried, "you careless bo! You will be iv.k again. Come and have some lea." And she led the W113' to the dining-room. How he longed to sa3: "Come, Dora, I have something to tell 3011," and then, hav ing her all to hims-'lf, pour out these miserable doubts and fears 1.1 her ear and so be free from them. Hut no; here was this crowd of chattering rirls besides, she must not know he had such doubts. Even if she said, "I love voti,'' could he be sure she was not y injr it because she believed it to be her duly. And so he finished the. evening as best he could, and all night long his heart tormented him with ceaseless questionings. Several days passed before he found an opportunity to speak alone with Dora. The house was filled with a number of 3oung guests, and Dora must be everj'whcre. Fred Long was just now taking a well-earned vacation. After 3'ear.i of hard work and months of illness he had come back to the home of his childhood to regain lost health and strength. He had called this the happicst'summcr he had known, but now an untimely frost had spoiled its beauty. Among the friends whom Dora was entertaining her cou tin Florence Freeman was the only one he had previously known. Naturally the drifted together during these miserable days. With Dora he was suddenly ill at ease and restless; her quick e3es noted the change, and looked about for a causv. Those same quick eyes noticed the walks and talks with cousin Florence. "No wonder .she admires him," she said, with a sharp little pang at her heart, mentally con trasting tall, handsome Florence with her own little self. Presently the flock of mem school girls took llight. "Onlv Florence, and 3ou, and I."aid lra;"jut as it used to be." Hut for both the old charm was destroyed. One da3 they walked together along the bank, and" Dora said: Our phn titne is done." "Yes," ho answered: "I must o back to 1113 law books and you must have time for your painting." A light came into her e3es. "Then I am to go on painting?" "Yes," he said, slowh. "I am mak ing this sacrifice for you. I do not u ish yoit to many me until 3011 have finished this work von have set vour heart upon. It will occupv your whole win ter?" "Yes; perhaps more. Give me ;. 3ear," he said, eagerhy, quite uncoc scious of the pain her words inflicted, and only anxious for time wherein to prove whether after all these ears of devotion, Fred could be won from her. A few weeks ago she had asked for the length of time simply because she had undertaken some painting which she wished to finish, and had plans to be carried out which she felt would be sadlv interfered with bv the necessan arrangements for a wedding. Now she had this additional motive. " Very well." came the auswer. calm and steady. No trembling in the quiet tones to betray the heart's unutterable anguish as it whispered to it.-elt: "How glad she is to be free even for a year. As for Dora, her heart was saying: " He does not care." And then they talked of indifferent matters, these two foolish ones, and the precious hours in which they might have understood each other slipped away and were gone forever. Once more apart, their letters were exchanged at regular intenals Fred's kind and loving. "Of course," said Dora, "it is his duty," while Dora's were a curious study had her lover but known. Each ouc a little cooler, a a little briefer than the last, until by the time spring had dressed the fields and woods in green again poor Fred had well-nigh made up his mind that Florence was right. Dora's heart was all in her painting; she had grown quite weary of him. '-This suspense is killing me," kt would sa3; "but I'll wait it is better it will soon be over." And Dora, working herself to a shadow over her painting, would think: "The end can not be far off. He will boon be free." Earlv in the summer Fred found him self again in the old familiar haunts. .. .. ...... ... , , . --..-...-. J f& Y&twr 'SSt seemed hanging over evemhinir. and Dora was farther away 'than ever.

Dora's eyes were scanning the distant- hills. She made no reply. She w:is steeling her heart against him. "He wants to be true." she thought, "but I will have no such love." "Dora, von are not lnippv." "She started. "Not perfectly so. What mortal in?" It seems to me would lie if only things could be as tno3 once were illusion he had between us. This was the lir-t made to tin fact that he had noticed any change in their relations. Dora realized that a crisis was com ing. She .imply awaited it in silence. She would neither strive to avert nor to hasten it. "I have sometimes feared that 3ou j muscular paralysis, constituting dead ami I have beon mistaken. That is the drunkenness or complete un:c.ilhc.MS. right word, I think. If so, I love you too well to ask you to keep a promise which has become hateful to you." Dora rose from her seat; a sudden fire flamed in her pale cheek. She held her h..nd out toward him the dear little hand that wore his ring. Something in her air bewildered him. He stood a moment motionless, then sci.cd the hand in both of his own. She shook him off impatieuth and drew the ring from her finger. Now he tin derstood. "Without a word, Dora?" he said, struggling for self-command as a man might battle for life against the wave.-, of a sen. "What is there to say?" asked Dora, her voice clear as a silver bell, while her 03'es shone like two stars. And again he told himself tnat lie: "She is glad!" Aiul so thev parted.

Pale and silent she lay and stirred not a linger nor an eyelash for anv of their tears. He stood there with Florence, and that still form between them; its smiling lips were no morn silent now than the3 had been in life. A dumb patience was marked on the sweet face, but tlie3 never guessed its meaning. "If she might onh have lived!" sobbed Florence.
