The case on Ethan Andrews' part, 1 have since learned, was not so had as it appeared My aunt had written him n bout me with a view to making a match and had sent blm my picture, but she said uothlng to me about thin, leaving me to decide, as It were, in cob! blood. The letter she had shown me was his reply. They had their own reasons for this course. At first I rebelled, but at Inst In a fit of desperation consented, taking the leap as a hunted doe will Jump from a cliff. I nsUed uo questions as to the traits of the man Into whose amis I was about to cast myself nor to see his likeness. I was taken to the steamer as a lamb led to the slaughter. The steamer touched at Ilavaua. When we steamed out of the har bor a gentleman began to tramp back and forth, apparently for exerctxe, near where I was sitting. Presently he noticed my forlorn appearance and gave me an Involuntary look of sym pathy. Then he went below, I Infer red, to get rid of so lugubrious a slight ns myself, but he soon rcappeurod with n bundle of magazines aud deferential ly offered them to me. This was the beginning of an acquaintance that In n few days ripened Into friendship. Though he delicately refrained from iisUIiir me the cause of my gloom, I longed to tell some one and confided It to him. 'I'oor child," he sold, a world of sym pathy in bis voice, his inn n tier, and especially lu Ills kindly browu eyes. "Do you wonder," I asked, "that I am the quintessence of misery?" "I do not. At the same Unio 1 can understand the motives of the man who has sent for you. Doubtless he missed the companionship of Ills own coiintryiuen, especially of bis country women, anil, remembering that 'love U blind' and "marriage Is a lottery,' concluded to rely upon your aunt's se lection, especially since he could not go and select for himself. No, I am not prepured to uduilt that the man you are to wed bus ttio unrefined In stincts yoo Infer." "And what do you think of my action lu the matter?" lie made no reply for some time, lie waa pondering. "You have evidently found It easier," I said, "to excuse blm than tne." "My hesitation Is ruther that you require a woman instead of a man to Judge for you. Tbe adage 'Put yourself iu hU place' is in this case Impracti cable. No man can put himself In a woman's place."' "You can at least Judge whether I have acted wisely or not." "Under duress you have made a de cision Involving a risk, but who shall say whether your circumstances Justi fied the risk or whether It Is a greater one than If you had selected your life partner after a study of blm during a courtship In which you were blinded by love and In which each participant studies to conceal every defect?" If tlio man w ho had sent for me hud put tils proposition in such comfort ing words I'm sure I Buotild have full en Into bis arms. Possibly I gained comfort from the modest manner lu which my companion analyzed my case, and more especially bla soothing, kindly tone. At any rate, I was re lieved and did not relapse into my for mer slate till w tillered llio harbor.
