At the Castle Muhaf- : y no sound broke the 7:40 : o'clock si once save the occasional note of crick et beneath the flagstones and the low twittering of the swallows as they icatlod boaeath the caves and chirped each other a sleepy good-night. Oscar Ilodingoto was Adolbort Ma laffy's adopted son. Years ago , i when Gwendolen was' but a baby and the proud father had gene out one event ing for njbuckot of soothing sirup to keep her froin "howling the roof of the liouso off , he had found Oscar , then a boy of 7 , trying to rob a blind man. Ho had taken the little waif homo , brought him up as his own child , and now , at flvo-and-twcnty , Oscar was on the Board of Trade , lie had resumed the old buslne.ts. During all those years that Gwondo Ion and Oscar had their hearts a pas siotmto love , almost , wicked in its in tensity , and not two months a onu they had plighted their troth and sealed their vows with a largo tooth starting kind that made Gwendolen club herself for all she had been miss ing , It waa the a vowel of this accent compact that had caused grim-visagcc old MahaiFy to rear his horrid fronl and declare that it should never bo that sooner than too his daughter wedded to one whoso pedigree no mar know he would lire the trusting lover o'er the picket fence. Ho would hava followed his harsh words with a blow , but Gwendolen had stopped him by say ingin thocoldly calniftono with whiol she could BO well express her anger the words with which this chapto opens. "No , papa , " slio said , when tin violence of the old man's warth hat in some measure abated , "you mus not strike Oscar , for in a few , shor months I shall become hia wife , " "Dost know what thou art'faaying child ] " said the old man what thou ait doingi" "Yes , " replied the ijirl , "I know al about it. 1 know that I love Oaca tenderly , deeply , devotedly ; and tha without the Bunshino of his smile m ; lifo would be as drear and desolate a a cake-jar after I have toyed with its contents. I know that in the fall when the loaves are turning brownam heavy flannels are being Ashed up from the bottoms of trunks , I am to bo married to Oscar to place my pure young heart in the keeping of oni who has promised to cherish anc and guard my happiness and inyos my lifo with the hate of a love as sacred - 1 cred ns it ia true , until the silent mos- I f sender of death shall part us forever ! with his icy and invisible hand " and 4 } with those words the fair young girl placed her arms around Oscar'a neck , nnd lot her head with its mass of sun- ' ny-gold curls fall trustfully on his . shoulder. i . "So you have given this young man your heart , my lassj" said the old man in cold , sneering tones. . "Yes , father , I have , " waa Gwendo len's reply , "and I shall never repent my notion. " } "You had much bettor , " said her i Father , while a balnful light shot from his eyes , "havo kept your heart and given him your liver , for its Httlo ' need you'll have for the latter if you Upend upon him to furnish food to , < cep it going" and , with a demon iko laugh , ho started over town to gee full , * * * * # # Two summers have come and gono. Gwendolen , a lojk of happy contont- nent in her face , sits in a tapestried room of the Castle MahaiFy singing a nother-song to a babe whoso big blue eyes wander wonderingly around the ipartmont , and whoso chubby Httlo lands tug heartily at the sides of the cradle in which it is lying. Presently 3scar comes into the room and kisses Gwendolen. "Do you know , dear , that it is two years to-day since wo wore married ? " "Yes. sweetie , " is the reply. "And do you remember what your 'athor said that evening when ho first earned of our engagement ? " "Yes , Darling. " "Wo have boon Hying wioh hint over since our marriage , have wo not ? ' "Yes , my lovo. " "Tho old man has a great head. Gwendolen , " said Oscar. "Ho sized no up exactly. Ho is getting old now , and wo must never leave him. " "You bet wo mustn't , " waa Gwen dolen's reply , "if wo want anything o oat , " Intelligence. . j National Associated 1'rcsa. | NEW YORK , April 18.
