n.atter now what he did or became, he had
just shatteied kerjzood opinion of him and
how eouid a w..raan Inve a man after that?
"U there any mre?"
Her mild (jue?stion startled him out of
his re very. lie was but dimly aware of the
stillness ot the hou.-e, of her quiet, con
strained tones ns she rcmarkrd how late
it was, as she bade him good-niht, of her
saying that she wanted to think it all over.
As he walked slowly homeward, he re
viewed aain all he had told her. Yes, he
had certainly been frank, brutally fiank,
and made a clean breast of it. ' After all,
had it been ntcery? WeHf he would
leave it until to-morrow. The night's sleep
would clear hi thoughts.
Trie next day he received her answer and
he thought tli.it if he loved her before, he
certainly adored her then. Her faith in
him remained unshaken, and she loved him
more than ever. How bright the vorid
suddenlv looked! How jovous his heart

Tncy had been secretly engaged for el
moat a year, a whole year of unalloyed hap
piness, for they knew there would be pa
rental objections. His friends had noticed
- tTie change in his habits, but eta ted to won
der, and accepted his reformation at--om-pltte.
He ftlt that he had worked hard,
but it had been a pleasure to work, thinkirg
cori-tant:y of her. Her faith in him was
firm. His prosrresis was slow, but they wore
encouiagsd. He was steadily gair.i;:g head
way and, this evening, he end the attended
the play togtther. The evening parsed
quickly, a3 all such evenir-ps had, and he
gladly accepted her invitation to come in a
moment and warm hirmelf before goina;
home. The moment had lengthened silent
ly, as usual, when she said:
"I realize I've made a mistake. I've been
wanting to tell you for some time, but d:d
not have the courage. I'm ro sorry but I
think it best to break our engagement, dr.n't
you? Y'ou know you don't like hypocrite-."
lie found him-elf trying to remember
what the piny they had just ecen had bten
and dimly wonderirg why he couldn't.
"Why don't you ray w.hat you are think
ing? Wny don't you abuse me, as I de
serve':" she added.
He stood looking at her dumbly, numbly.
"I suppose," ehe continued, "you will go
ba:k to vour dreadful drinking to your
old life?"'
"I don't know," he muttered. "Good
night." Mi rror.
