When it was evident that she was dying. they made searching inquiries for Glen- eairn, advertised, wrote or telegraphed to every authority likely to he of assistance in finding him. The news of Laura's danger reached him at last. but not before he had discovered the utter worthleesneee of the woman for whom he had deserted her. He had been a dupe; he knew himself now to have been betooled and deceived, and knew that his true wife lay near to death. As fast as the power of steam could carry him, he hastened to Laura's side. He was too late tor his presence to revrve her broken strength. too late to call her beck to life and love, but not too late to listen to her last faintly whispered words. to see a smile of more than earthly peace and joy on her face before she died. The wages of sin were paid him. Her funeral was barely over when he fled away to the other side of the world. In gloom and bitterness of epirit he made haste to put the ocean between him and England. lesvzng his little Luli in the care of his lost wife's relatives. The good old rule. the slmgle plan.

Untutored as a wild nature of the prairie and the plain,in his knowledge of the world and ot woman.he tell an easy victim to the snare. As suddenly and absolutely as he had yielded to the romance of a first pure love for a pure and noble woman, he fell under the s ll of a fatal passion for one of the D ‘ ahs of modern days. Her victory wss complete, and she knew it; and he was rich at that time. It followed that he left Laura and her child, and went off with his new love to Italy. But Laure sunk mortally stricken beneath the shock. No spirit of wrsth. of indigne~ tion. of outraged love and wounded pride, arose to sting her into resistance or the sorrow thet killed her. Her week and delicate physical frame broke down under the strength of her anguish. She wss never heard to utter a word of blame or sugar ogeinst him, but shrank ewsy from the subject of his sin as from the touch ofe burning iron. She only knew thst from the psradise of his love she ewoke to find herself deserted end alone. and (tom thet hour she feiled and faded swsy. In some explanation of a wrong that 'waa too cruel to be paliated. let it be remem- bered that he comprehended no more of a true woman's nature than of an extinct language. and he had no idea that his leav- ing Laura would break her heart. He had taken care to arrange that she should have plenty of money in her possession. and the power of drawing on his bankers for more. She had her child. She was near her mother's eietere, who could advise and care {or her. Leaving her under such circum~ etanceedid not seem to him to be deeertion.
