The news of the Doctor's unhappy'. marri= age and its finale soon ran through Eastwood winning for him--when | 11-was told---great- ertavour and sympathy than before, The on of Hepworth Lodge were n open to him, and a year later Laura, happy and content, became the new Doctor's wife, sincere and faithful fiend. Wh p Tigh words had risen on the part of Mr Hep- worth, He hadapade reference to the thun- der storm and the sentences uttered on that occasion. John Mortlrke had: had hardly answered, ¢ Only once,' when the listener heard him ejaculate, with 'a' bitter groan, upon the other declaring (hat he. bad compromised his daughter : __« Heaven forgive me; but I trust not!

Bit the street-door had banged, and with a groan, the Doctor seemed to cover his face with his hands, and sob like a woman, when the old woman fearful of detection, bad stolen away. As weeks passed, however, it became a nu gtion whether John' Mortlake had rejects ¢d Lanta Hepworth, or 'vice versa.' : It was decided by the majority that the old woman's deafliess had deceived her, and the latter was the case; for ti ough rather pale, Miss Hepworth was gayer, and attended even more parties than ever; while the Doctor went about like a man whose death warrant had been signed. Assuredly Mr Hepworth had learned some evil event of his past life, and had forbidden Jim his house. That must be it, and the Doctor's practice fell off accordingly. The above was a sad trouble to Mrs Lan. lisgh when her anuual picnic in Gray Woods came round. : She had built upon the Lielp and presence of Joun Mortlake. «If John Mortlake comes, the Hepworths will refuse, remarked Mr Langliegh. ¢ That js certain,' sighed Mis Lauleigh. So the Doctor was not asked: He was, however, there. He, too, bad built upen this pic- nic--upon the pleasure ot being with Laura, and wandering with her through the shady woods. «1 was wrong-- I was a coward-- a villian T= Yot heaven knows I meant no barm,'" he groaned.

Ilis misery was unbearable as he beheld Ilerbert Langleigh seated at her side, chat- ting so eagerly. + It is he who will win her--who will win ber--who will call her bis,' «ho groaned, 'and it is all right but it is death. . Turning he planged further into the underwood. | Had he stayed a momént longer; balm would have come to his heart. He would have seen Laura, seizing an opportunity, steal away from the pie-nic party. Ie would have scen her gaiely become sadness, tearsrise 10 her eyes, and have heard her ex- claim with a sob : «Oh! John--John, how hard it is to play so false a partasI, when my heart is breaking!
