Rev. Philip Ware looked
thoughtfully around the sitting-
room of the tiny Hat. It was
very homelike ; there were evi
dences of a woman's fingers in
every little nook , and over all
was the soft rose light from the
lamp-
She had come into his parish
six months before , and he had
made his first call upon her in
his capacity of minister. lie
h a d called many times very
many times , but these were not
altogether in the capacit } * of
minister.
This was noted by his devoted
parish , and on this account the
newcomer was promptly disliked
by several. There was one girl
who disliked her particularly ; a
tall dark girl , with beautiful
hair , and the face of a saint. Be
sides , the report had been spread
abroad , started by some one who
"knew her before she came to
M . " that she was separated
from her husband.
Rev. Philip Ware thought of
all this as he waited
It would be very simple , he
reasoned. He would not stay
long , they would have a pleasant
friendly chat at first , and then as
he was going , he would tell. She
would understand ; she was a
woman of the world , and would
know what he meant without his
telling it all.
Then feeling that he was not
alone , he looked up and saw her
standing in the doorway. She
was looking at him with a pecu
liar intense expression in her
eyes , and he caught the look be
fore she had time to veil it behind -
hind her usual laughing manner.
At that look Rev. Philp Ware
lost his wonderful self-control.
Springing to his feet , he strode
determinedly to the door and
clasped the soft , womanly figure
in his arms. She quivered a
little and then was very still.
Silently he laid her head again
st his shoulder and laid his lips
upon hers. Somehow he had
forgotten about the friendly chat
and the little message just be
fore he went.
Suddenly the sound of a bell in
the next flat brought them to
consciousness. It was the wo
man who started back.
"Let me go , Philip , " she said ,
quickly and firmly ; "let me go. "
But he made no motion except
to clasp her morecloeely. There
was a dogged look in his eyes
which she did not like to sec.
"Philip , " she pleaded , and
there was a ring almost of des
peration in her voice , "For God's
j sake let me go. "
At that name the name of tin-
King whose ambassador he was
some consciousness of what he
was doing came to Rev. Philip
Ware , and for God's sake for
His only he let her go.
"Listen to me , Marian , " he
cried , "My love for you is strong
er than any thing else , and you
must love , me , you shall. "
Rev. Philip Ware's voice rang
out as firmly and powerfully as
was its wont when he read "Thou
shalt not , " in t h e Command
ments. Perhaps the woman
thought of this , for she shivered
slightly.
"You know that to me , " he
went on. more quietly , "death
alone has the power to separate
those who have been joined to
gether ; but since in your eyes ,
divorce is lawful , I will wait un
til you are freed. So now there
can be nothing to keep us apart
unless you say that you do not
love me ; but you do is it not , so
sweet ? "
He bent nearer slowly , as if
afraid of frightening her , but as
he touched her hair she started
back and , snatching away her
hands , moved quickly to the
other side of the room. Slowly
she turned and faced him , and
1 when she spoke her voice calm
and natural.
"I think you must surely be
i forgetting yourself. I did not
know that I had ever given you
cause to think that I loved 3'ou
until , perhaps , just now ; but that
was because because you sur
prised me so that I did not re
alise what you were saying and
doing.1'
Had she thought of it she
would have been amused at her
self for faltering she to whom
this was an old story.
But as she glanced at him
, there was something in his eyes
that she could not bear to see
.those . eyes from whose depths
i she would have kept away the
shadow of pain with her very
life. She only knew that she
loved him better than anything
in the heavens above or the
waters under the earth the
phrase came to her unbidden
and that she had given him his
deathblow. Why could she not
go to him as he sat there , with
his head buried in his hands , and
tell him this tell him that she
would do what he asked , would
go with him anywhere ?
If she alone were to be consid
ered , she would do it ; but he
must be kept safe ; his honor must
never be blemished , nor his
career as a priest of God be
spoiled. So this woman , of
whom the world spoke so slight
ingly , nerved herself to begin
the struggle against him and her
other self.
"I have always been called
heartless , " she said in an un
emotional tone , "and I must be
if I have made you believe that 1
love you , for I do not ; I never
have ; I never can. "
The last was uttered with
difficulty , for he had lifted his
eyes to her face , and she saw
that they were haggard and
drawn , even in the soft lamp
light.
"Marian , " he said , "must 3-011
take all ? I have given you my
love , my honor ! must you take
my faith , too ?
For if you have deceived me
Lhcro is no one whom I can ever
'rust. Pity me , Marian ! have
mercy ! tell me that you did not
leccive me , that you do love me
- on 13- that , dearest ; only that.
A man can live without love or
lope ; he can even die without
them ; but he can neither live nor
lie without faith. "
Slowly she gathered her scat-
crcd senses and looked up at
lim.
"You are right , Philip , " she
said softly. "I I thought 1 was
loing the best way , but I didn't
x-now , for Im I'm not good ,
you know. It is not because I do
lot wish to to do as you want
ne to do , but because I will not ,
ind I will not because I love you ,
lear. "
"Oh , Philip , my darling , my
ifc , I love you so more than
inyone else could ever love 3-011.
Yet you will marry her the girl
who hates me so , the girl who
las always been good. How
eng would she love you if
she knew of this , do you think ?
She loves you only because you
ire noble and reverent and good ,
while I , " -her voice was harsh
with pain - "oh , Philip , I would
eve you in heaven , or earth or
lell. "
The man could bear no more.
He caught her hands and pressed
Jie palms passionately to his
iips. His very touch seemed to
soothe her , for she drew them
Sjentty away , and when she spoke
licr voice was low and sweet.
"I have never loved anyone ,
you know , dear , so perhaps that
is what makes it so hard. I
married because T had no home
and he was good to me. Since
then I have not cared whether
men loved me or not. They
were rather amusing , and I was
not good enough for the women
to care for me , " she added bit
terly. "But when you came into
my life I knew then what it
would have been to have the love
of a good man. ' ' She paused and
lokedathim longingly. "Philip , "
she said , pleadingly , yet with a
note of shyness in her tone , "may
I run my fingers through 3our
hair ? You must be very , very
quiet and not touch me. "
The man looked at her with
mute eyes that reminded her
somehow of the eyes of a dog.
"I have always wanted to do
this , " she said. "You have such
pretty hair , so thick , and black ,
and wavy , I believe that I loye it
best of all. but then I love all of
you best. "
She paused a moment and
looked at him critically.
"If you were less good , Philip
if you had made no struggle
against it perhaps I would have
heard you , for I love you so.
Now I will go back to him , the
one who the law sa3s is my hus
band , and you will marry the
beautiful girl who does not know
what wickedness means. I could
never satisfy all of you , for I am
not good enough. " Her hp quiv
ered a little. "Philip , " she cried ,
"why did God forget to put a soul
in me when I was made ? Per
haps he did give me one , but
there was no one to help it to
grow. Do you think , " she asked
suddenly , "that she would have
loved you enough to give you
up ? "
But just then the clock chimed
the hour. There were many
strokes , and each one seemed to
beat upon their consciousness the
fact that now they must part.
"You must go , Philip , " she
said gently. The man rose.
"This is the end ? " he asked in
a hard , dry tone.
"This is the end"she repeated
softly , and held out her hand.
lie drew a quick breath and
looked at her hand reproachfully.
"Not that waysurel3r ; , not that
way , dear ? May I not at least
tell you good-by as I want1'
"No ; it would do no good and
only make it harder for both of
us. I know a better way the
way your mother would tell yon
good-by. Lean down a minute ,
Philip. "
She slipped her arms around
his neck and rested her soft lips
for an instant on his forehead.
"Good-by , my life , " she whisp
ered , so low that he scarcely
heard it. "Keep good always. "
Strong man as he was , this
was too much for him. Tears
choked his voice so that he could
not answer , but he shook his
head.
"Good-night. " she whispered ,
and watched him as he slowly
descended the stairs without ever
turning back. Then she me
chanically went to her own apart
ment. The pretty rose-colored
lamp went out and left her in
merciful darkness.
