You will have to give up tho continent iu summer aud 'take board' somewhere quite near the city, where 'Mr. Kane' can po iu aud out to his business fouvenioutly every day. You Oh. Marion! Don't!" Marlon laughed again, showing all her magnificent teeth. "Ami telling you any ttiinj; but the truthf Is not that what you will hare to aor Millicent her hands In her lap, sat the picture of dejection in her blue and white boudoir. Involuntarily she cast glance arouud It and Mariou followed the processes of her thought. It was a dainty place. It was full of flowers, books (which Millicent rarely. oenod), bric-a-brac, soft rugs, pictures. It was a sheltered and perfumed bower, and indubitably it was the rht setting for Millicent, who was delicate and slight, and violet-eyed and fastidious, and not accustomed to rough enoouuters with the world. Mariou came closot to her friend and with a line movoment of her haudaome arms, her slender, beautiful hands drew the younger girl's fair face down to ber shoulder. Such demonstrations were raro with Marlon Lang. "lam sorry, dear, If you really care for him," she murmured. And Mll llcent cried a little aud then pushed her friend away. Marlon had her on her mind the rcit of the day. "I hope she does not care very much for him, she thought. "It Is hard, I suppose." From personal experience she did not know whether it was hard or not She consoled herself at last by remembering, though there seemed certain disloyalty in the act. that, perhaps, after all, Millicent, sweet as she was and gentle, and lovely, was not capable or caring as deeply as some others. "Now, if I really loved a man very much but no, I hope I should have sense enough to do Just what Millicent is doing." That was in the last days of the spring. Before another fortnight had elapsed Millicent had sailed for the continent still free, and so far as Marlon could see, looking bright and happy enough, and Marion herself had left town with an invalid auut for a quiet summer on tho Devonshire coast. "It is fearfully and wonderfully stupid," she wrote In hor Hrst letter to Millicent, "and I shall read Browning and Herbert Spencer for four months without Intermission." This letter she drove to the village oflice herself to post. It was a hot day, and when Marion discovered that thuro was no one in sight to take her letter or to hold her horse while she dismounted from ber cart, she was tilled with an unreasonable Irritation. Her pug barked and she administered to him a sharp rebuke with her fan, while the horse fidgeted restlessly. At that moment a dark man In light tweed, looking very cold, passed anil observed the predicament of the young woman, by this time flushed and angry of glance, and suppressed a smlto. "May I take your letter?" he said civilly. Marion's blue eyes met his in a straight look from under the rim of her broad white bat. The man was an ad mirer of beauty. Ho thought he had never seen a handsomer creature. "Thank you." And tho cart rattled down the road, raising a little cloud of white dust which mounted slowly in the still, hot air. The following day Marion, calling on a friend in the cottage next to her aunt's, discovered sitting on the piazza ber deliverer of the morning before. "It was very considerate of you to come to my rescue, Mr. Crane." she laughed. "Kane," amendod their hostess, smil ing. "Ah, I always blunder over names when new people aro introduced to me." So his name was Kane f Marion looked at the man before her more at tentively. Thirty-throe or five. Yes. that might be his age. She had decided that she would ask as soon as he hud gone whether his other namo was erald when the question answered it self. "I properly should have had the pleasure of meeting you before, and without coming as far as a village post office In Devonshire. Miss Lang.I have heard Miss Dormor speak of you very often. You were away from town ail last winter, were you noir "Yes," said Marion. Hehad spokoil of Millicent very quietly aud natural ly, "He has either more command over his emotions than most men," thought Marion, "or he did not care as much for dear little Millicent as he ought to have done." Before the week was out they were friends. i'And I don't make frionds very easily either." said Marlon. "But, you see. Mlllleeut la 'a bond between us." "Aro you apologising for having ad mitted lii ii so soon tn the privileges of rompauloii!ilpr"'nlt tiernltl Knne,w Ith his quiet smile. Marlon HiikIiihI ft Utile. She was not sure that she always liked his smile. It was uiastei f id In lis own calm, uuob U'uilvD wiw. Aud Mitrlan.belng some what ins! erf id howlf, resented Its tacit aimiiiion of power. "Oh, dear no, I should never thluk of apologWug. Did MIIHoeiit me her self to apologise to you for thing?" she asked cruelly. Kane looked at tier. ! "l don't know w hat you mean." Marlon hit her Up. She wondered as thn days went ou how lie had tmp jMmod to earn especially for Mllllcent, Vt course Mllllcent was the dearest lit tlo creature, but . And then Mariou deliberately turned her thoughts on other thlnr. "Where Is Miss Dormer Bow?" Kane asked her one day. "You hear from her, I suppose?" "In Franc. Yes, I hear from her. Shall 1 semi her a message from you?" "Thanks, yes. I wUh you would firosont my remembrance to her. She s one of the most charming girls of the tvpe I think I ever met," ho added, placidly. A moment later, looking round, ho caught an expression Iu Marlon's face that made him exclaim: "I wish you would esplalu to me once for all In what wsv you eonneet mo In your mind w ith Mis Dormer?" lie looked masterful enough now. Mariou met Ills challenging glauce.thou aid with an iiupuUo she could not her elf have accounted for: "I was admiring, slmoly, the way In which you bear your defeat." She was abashed after she had said it. Ksnowss silent a moment, thou theiiwiug his arm over the back of his chair: . "My defeat? Did Vou suppose that I proiHwied to Mi Doi'mui'.perhaps?" "1 " began Marlon, confused. "1 see," lie said quietly. "1 novel dUI. 1 admired her; I saw - a great deal of her, Some friends of mm and of hvrs- proUably thought that I but no. Much a 1 admired Miss Dormer I did uot admire her In- thai wav. It Is hu illicit that lookers-ou can maVe this disiiuotlou. It is plain euouah, though, to tho Interested par ties.'1. ' Toor Millicent! It lis not Wn plaiu enough to her. thought Mariou. "N'o," he continued, "and I should uot have proMod to Ml Dormer even had 1 hnd the liit'lioatlou. I nhoiild never have expected such a girl, brought up as she has Wu. to man y a poor man, such as 1 am." Mariou was silent In her turn mo ment and she looked away. "Men are very severe In their judg ment of girls situated at Millicent is, who heJiuto to marry In the way you suggest." she said, tttnilly. iu low voice, "but It is uujuxl to'iliein to crlll sise their course to harshly" Kane laughed. "It is kiud of you to defend tluwe girls, but you know very well that you cannot synipathiso with theui." She turned her eyes full upon thorn. "You are mistaken. I think as they do." "Yon, yourself, would nut marry poor niuu with his career, his way, to make." "No." Her heart was beating f;it. Kane rose and stood looking down at her. "I don't believe you," he s;iid. "Yon may!" sho cried. Ho did not seem to hoar. "Xo, 1 do not believe you. You are a wumau, not a pretty doll who needs-pshaw! How you libel yourndf! You don't even know tho capacity for loving that you have wlthiu you." "Mr. Kane " Agniu he, seemed unaware of the in terruption. He seemed to bo pursuing, very rapidly, some trtilu of thought. "After all, why should not I speak?" he said. "You aro not an ordinary girl. You ran understand. You are an exception In all things. Why should I wuit what tho humdrum ideal of what is proper would consider the right length a! time lie fore tolling yon I am dcqioraloly, endtirlngly in love with you? 1 ak you to be my wife. You are the only woman whom I ever have asked." Marion win standing now as well, Uu looked into her white face. "Then you have your answer! Ihav already given It to you." "And I ruIuMO to give that answer s second thought. I repeat that you dc not know yourself. If yon loved a man yon would marry hint if he offered you a crust and a cup of cold water." "And who tells you I love you?" She tried to laiiiili him to scorn, but it was a dismal failure. Kane's brows contracted as with spasm of pulii. Tho motion barely lusted a second. "Perhaps ynu do not now hut you will. Don't light against it. We were mado for each other. You will see. I can wait. I have been very prema ture. Do not turn mo nwuv, Hint is all I ask. I shall never refer to this aguln until you give me permission. Only give me a chancel And now let us talk of other things." This was still eaiiv in the summer. The leaves were lieglituiitg to full and Marion's Invalid aunt wus talking of returning to town, when Marion came to her ono day with a great secret, a great piece of news. Min ion, nsually so self-possessed, told it with flaming cheeks, with halting voice. "So that Is the reason why that young lawyer kept eonilngon hero from London nil through the season?" "Yes, aunt." "And you take your bust friend's cast-olf admirers?" "Ilo never cured for Millicent in that way,, auul! It was all a mistake, uud Millicent does not care for him now, for 1 havo Just hud a letter from her and she Is engaged. They mot this summer. He is rich and sho is very happy." "And you " Marlon laughed. "Oil, I shall be poor, but very happy also, I trust!" Miss Dormer was married at n fashionable church In November, Miss Lang, very quietly, a mouth later. "And lire, vou to live in a little house, Marlon?" asked Miss Dormer tho. day before tier own wedding. Trobably, dearest!" "And shall you spend your summers "In some quiet suburb where 'Mr. Kane enn conveniently coino up and down.' Yes, yes!" laughed Marion. Thon with a sudden tumIi of tours iu her oyos, she threw her arms nbout her friend. "Oh, Militant, I hope you will bo us happy as I nml" A Venerable JnrlHt.

It was not tho culling for which he was iilled: his nature was too shy and sen sitive for tho l(o of contliet by which lawyers win fame and forlune; but law seemed to him tho readiest means of earning his bread, while literature, to which lie would gladly have devoted himself, olTered him the scantiest suit port. While he and his father and the other members of the family were dis cussing where he should nail up the sign of "William C. Bryant. Attorney at Law," he walked over the hills to riaiutield, a small village four or live miles distant from ('umiiiington, where his father resided. The motive of the Journey was to see what Inducement the villagu offered for the practice of his profession. He felt "very forlorn and desolate," for the world seemed dark and his future uncertain. The sun had set In a sea of chrysolite and opal, and he stopped to contemplate the brilliant sky. Suddenly ho saw a waterfowl winging Its way along the liorl.on, and watched it until It was lost in the dis tance. Thocontomplatloti gffio him such a stimulus that he went ou with new strength and courage, and when he reached the house where he was tostny for the night, he sal down and wrote the lines "To a Water-fowl," the con cluding verse of which expressed tho hope Imparted to him by the (light of the lone wander: lie who, from Mine to solus UiilUes ihmiiirli tin' ImiuiuIIcm sky tliy cer ium IIIkIiI.

Mr. Blgelow's "Life of Bryant," to which wo are Indebted for the story of the poem's origin, also tells an anec dote illustrative of the iidiulratlou it excited in Kngliuul. Once when the late Matthew Arnold was in the country he was visiting at a home when! Mr. ' 1'arke Godwin. Mr. Bryant's soti-ln-law, happouod to spend an evening. In the course of the con versation Mr. Arnold look up a volume of Mr. Bryant's jioeins from the table, and, turning to Mr. Godwin, said: "This is (he American poet." and after n pause ho continued: "When I first heard of him, Hartley Coleridge, we were both lads then camo into my father's house one afternoon consider ably excited, and exclaimed, "Matt, do you want to hear thn best short poem in the lOuglisli language?" '"Faith, Hartley, I do,' was the re- piy. "lie then read a poem 'To a Water fowl' iu his best manner, and ho was a good render. As soon as he had done ho asked, 'What do you think of that?' "I am not sure but you aro right, Hartley. Is that your father, was my reply. "'No,' herejolned, 'father has written nothing like that.' Some days after hu might be heard muttering to himself: "'The desert llllmllnhlo nlr Lllllll WillMlCI'llltf, liul uot lust.'"
