From thla he only emerged at times to ipeak of the affair with the peitedo ofllcer, and to tlmuk bl brother again for tha tlmoly blow attiick in hi dufenae, It wa the only thing the poor fellow could remember having been dona for him in long yen by any humun be ing, and th reason why It wna done.

No word could have told him so eloquently that hi brother did cure for him, and he had boon longing strangely for human lova and sympathy. George noted with alarm hi brother' growing despondency and exerted him self without avail to Hud means of di verting him. The business was extend ing rapidly, and some mutters in Eng land finally demanding peraonal atten tion, he suggested the trip to Ogdon. The latter agreed to It with more read! nexs than his brother hud expected, bnt without any apparent anxiety for the change, As he went Into the tletnll of the business thjjt would employ him, however, he himself with all hi old time thorougtmeHs to their masteiy, "1 hope the trip will be pleasant and that it will do yon good," said George, aa they clasped hand cordially at part ing, "1 don't know that 1 am 111," waa the mei you pity me, that" all," he ana.vered moodily, It got up to go.

When Lin Tennant had aaid that lie did care for him it haul demanded the whole strength of hi ua- tnr to keep from reaching ont and tak ing her in hi arm el telling her the bole t iry of hi I .", and how the aacrific of those long yean hail been mad for her anke. Now b thought over her word and t he look in her deep eye, ana ir lie could hav ilivealed him elf of the harrowing liellef that her klndne had ixwn only prompted by pity n would have gone buck then and ayked her to be hi wife, II walked on and on through th long night. Bhould he ever be able to throw off thi feeling of abasement that waa now alway with him to hold up hi bead among men, to believe tlmt he could be valued by them at his real worth, Instead of U'liri pitied aud ihumivd becaune of what ha had been? He wished he might never have to see men any more. The atari shining above him were quiet and congenial compan ion. They asked uo questions; they let their light ihine out on freely for biio a for any. He stopped beside tbe still rivnr and watched the reflection of the stun In it lletit boaom. 'A man might go down there," he thought, "and sleep with them and be quiet aud till and content forever. I wonder if that wonld not he best after aiir But no; that would not be right to ward George, who had sent him on this buslneas and trtwted him with it, He would attend to that first; then, maybe, he might rest. , And then George would care, toot he knew tlmt now had known It ever sluce be struck that detective fellow. Lina had said she cared too. But did he? How could he tellf She hod done nothing for him. Perhaps site had never had the chance; well, be would give her ene now; he would ask her to marry Mm and go to England with him. He found hi way bat to the hotel, and with this new resolve firm In his mind slept long and we"; Then he arose, bathed and dresaed with unusual delili eratlon and went to hor again, keeping hi errand steadily before him, She made it easy enough for him doubtless, but he had no longer his old steadfastness of will, 8he saw his hesi tancy, "You came to ask me something," she aid. "Is there anything you want? Is there anything I oan do for you?" "Yes, there is something I want, I want you," Womanlike, she could not resist play ing with him at the last. "Why, you have me now," she sold. "I will stay here with you aa long aa you- like, and 1 wish you would come here ofteu." , "Yes, but I want more. I cam to ask yon to marry me, but I won't do It now." He epoke moodily, and voice and manner woro without the fire of passion or of love. "No, 1 won't do it," he re peated, "for if you should it would ba from pity not from love."
