turning aside his

" You aro right," she replied qiiickly
44No, lot me only romolubcr tho bitter
sorrow I havo undergone—tho days and
nights of repentance. But It was too
lato! too late!" She paused for a mo-
ment, and thon continued, " I married

She was crying now. Sho said: "Who
told you of this noble life—of your
mother?" A
My fat nor."
Sho sank upon hor knoos, crying bit-
terly. Sho thought : 44 lie has spared
my momory—that memory so dearly
trized my our son. I otin not claim my
leritago of shame!"
44 Ypu are crying," hb said, gontly.
f4 You are thinking of my Want of grat-
itude in wishing to leave this house
whoro you have nursed mb so tondorly.
You must forgive me. I am soltlsh anil
inconsiderate."
Her face remained buried in hor
hands. Sko was crying bitterly as sho
murmured: "He is near me, and yet I
dare not clasp him in my arms. Heaven
have pity on mo!"
He approached her, and said: 44But
you told mo just noW you possossod a
secret involving the Whole happiness of

9hb paused a moment, and then rose
with supernatural calmness.
44 The gentleman Who was with 1110
this morning brought good news."
44 You mean Dr. Blunt?"
441 ntean Dr. Blunt. He came to toll
me th^t the consent of tho father of
your fiancee bad been obtained."
As She said these words his eyes
.brightened with joy. He seomed to bo

"Is it really, true?" ha cried. "All
my strength comes back to mo. Ktito,
my darling, my love!"
44How sooitshe forgets mo!" sho mur-
mured. '
44 And whon shall I soo Dr. Blunt?''
he asked, oxcitcdly. 44 Is ho to comb

44 Ho has promised to be baek in half

IIo arose without assistance, and
walked towards tho door, 441 must bo

44 You see I am here."
It was the Doctor who had just en-
tered the rOom. Sho rose with tier eyes
red with weeping, her bosom heaving
with emotion.
Ho lookod at hor with pity, and said,
44 You have spoken with your son?" •
441 havo spoken with my son."
44 And he knows?"
44 Nothing."
He took her hand. 44 You have actod

I can not live long, I know," she
murmnred. 44 But silence before him.
Let htm think that his mother really
