At seVen o'clock that same ev. Oning. the two arrived in London, Johnson tolerably contented with himself for the neutnoss and diSpatch With which he had managed the 30UTDOV. little guessing that. he had been etected by the keen eye of John Rudd. Arrived at Euston, a. bur-wheeler was suunnuncd. and the two 805 into it and Were driven ”WW. Then Johmwn turned to Annie. "My dear," he said. "1 may as] we)! make you acquainted with our! plans now. I‘m: fact is, the master Q Won t. be able to join you for a wuok and I am going to stop and take care of you till he cn- (ms. l have-6 taken some apartments for that! Week in a. hotel; and. in ordar to I simplify matters, I have given our; names as Mr. and Miss Johnson. Therefore. for the time being, you am my sister, Miss Annie Johnson! Do you understand?" I Annie nodded. She quite under- stood; though she was beginning to feel alarmed as we]: as puzzled at. the strangeness of the whole pro- coodings. She was still more alarm- ed at the subsequent manner in which Johnson conducted himself. True. he had taken rooms in the ho- tel, as he had saidâ€"private rooms. which they occupied in common. She Was apparently allowad to go and come at will; yet she soon found that. she was as much a prisoner as if sho had been incloscd by iron bars. Whatever she did, Johnson knew of; and once or twice. when she attemptâ€" ed to write to her friends, be quiet- ly but firmly refused to allow any such thing. “Look here," he said. “don't you think this here gum- is to my taste at all, 'cause you’d be wrong. I’ve done a goodish many thinga in my time.‘ but, running away wi' girls, and keepin' ~em caged up like birds, ain’t one of ’01:); however. I gave my word to young Redruth as I'd keep ye square till he came. and I'm agoin' to keep my Word: but precious glad I shall be when these six days um over." In due time the six days came to an end. and Annie rccnived from Johnson the glad intelligence that on the altenioon oi the sixth day; her lover would be with her. Tremâ€" bling with excitement and joy. Shel obeyed her woman's instinct. andi hash-nod to make hersvll‘ look her; very best. She arrayed berm-11' in} the pretty gray dress which she had: brought with her from her home. and put, some flowors at her throat; so that when. a few hours later. young Redruth arrived. he clasped her Lo him again and again, and. looking into hp; tear-dimmed eyes. said he had never seen her looking so pretâ€" ty in all her life. “And you will never go away from me again." said Annie. as she clung. sbbbing, to him; “you will always stay with me?" “Always, my darling." “And weâ€"shallâ€"be marriedâ€"â€"" "This very night. Though I have been away I have not been unmind- lul of my duty to you, my pet. I have arranged for our marriage; I have taken a house Where we will live. We will go straight, from here after dinner, and get. the ceremony over. It will be a. quiet. marriage, mid. to you, a. strange one. I fear. ovor.

The little party of three sat' down to itâ€"Redruth making the Lniost convivial of hosts; aiter the dinner was over, Johnson took his leave, and the lovers were alone. There was no time just then for bil- ing and cooing: if anything was to :be done it must be done quickly, for {the day “'33 Well nigh spent. George {told Annie to get on her bonnet and icloak: she did so. and the two got ginto a. hunsom and were driven laway. How strange it all seemed to her .Iâ€"to be speeding thus through the ‘streets of London with her future ghusbund by her side. She was on 1her way to be married, dressed in 3am old bonnet and cloak which she had ol‘ten worn at St. Gurlott‘s. {with no Wodding favors. no joyful liaces about her. Looking back up- »on this episode in later years. she saw in it the dreadful foreshadowing iof all that was to follow, the misâ€" Ecry, the degradation, the shame. llut lot the time she saw nothing,r of all ithis; the sordidness was illuminated {to her by the fact; that she had be- gside her the one man whom, above 'Inll others, she lovedâ€"and who loved iher. The memory of that apisodo had faded somewhat. away. She remem- bered only faintly that the hnnsom set them down before the door of a dingy office in some back slum of London. that before two men the marriage ceremony was gem), through. and that whom she rcâ€"cnter- ed the cab she wore a. M‘dding ring 6;: the third finger of her left hand, and firmly Indian-d herself to be Mrs. :corge Redruth. The house which he had taken for her. and to which he conducted her iuum-diutuly after‘ the ceremony, wzu situated in a London suburb. It was an clegantdifitle mansion, fur- nished and fitted in a style which completely dazzled poor Annie. But in those early days of thir union he certainly loved her as much as it was in his power to love; and Annie was happy. Besides, he was always} with her; during the day they drove together, and in the evening they. Went to the theatre or operaâ€"Annie: clad in silks and satins like some‘ great lady 01‘ the land. But things could not be expected to go on Sci forever: and, after a. while, Rodruthi‘ began to leave her; for short periods} at first, and afterward for longerâ€"; and his manner, at first. so ancient and overflowing. gradually coded. At. first. Annie was heart-broken, and during his absences. criod bitter- ly in the secrecy of her own room. Then she brought reason to her aid, and acknowledgod to herself that it was the lot, of every happy bride to pass through the experience which was coming to her. After 11 man had hccome a. husband, it was im- possible for him to remain a. lover-â€" at least, she had been told that Was ,the common belief. so she must try [to be content. But at, times. try as }‘she would, she could not help grievâ€" ‘ing. Thus it. was that. George Rod- :ruth found her very sad one even- ;ing, when he returned to her after I I J an absence of several days. He Icamo in jovial enough, for he had [been dining at. the club with some :friends. He took her in his arms iand kissed her; then he looked into i her eyes: “Why, Annie. what's this? Said. ”You've been crying.” “Just a little, because I felt, so lonely. It is so dreary here when you an‘ away, and you are away so much now." “If I am, it is no fault of mine, my pet); important. business. which you would not understand occupies nearly all my time; afiuixs aro get- ting su complicated t.ha.t unless I fl" he ed it. and showed hot 8. gold brace- let. “Isn’t it pretty?" he asked. “Yes; it is pretty. butâ€"" "Well, my pet?” “There is something I would rath- er have than all the bracelets in the World." “What is that, Annie?" “The sight of my home. and of m dear father and mother. 0h, George, why can I not write to them and tell them that, I am your wife?” ' "You aro foolish, and don’t know what you are saying. A little while ago. when you first camu here. you said if you could let them know that you were well and happy it would content you I allowed you to write. yd. you are unhappy and complaining to me again. 1 have told you repeatedly that; I have 111051. important, reasons for wishing to keep our union secret." "Yes, I know, but it Seems so strange, so unkind." “Annie. can you not. bu patient for a. little while? If you loved me as you say, you Would obey and trust. “I do trust you," she returned, “with all my heart, and soul! For your love I have forsaken every- thingâ€"home, kindred. friundsâ€"but when wo came away together you promised that in a little time I should ruturn with you to those who are dear to me. I have waited vary patiently; but to liVo on here alone in London. to feel that they think ill of me and are mourning for we far awayâ€"ch! I cannot bear it: it breaks my heart!” “They know that you are alive and we} . Sun-1y that is enough." “Ah. if you knmv how dear I am to them! Since 1 was a. child, until the day I came away with you, I had cher left, my home. It seems so druaz‘y in London after my happy home! Often when you are gone ‘I sit at the. window there and look out on the great, city: and when I hear the. murmur of the folk it. seems like the. sound of the sea." "My darling, this is more sentiâ€" ment, which you will forget. Surely London. with all its life and gayety. is merrier than that dreary place. where I lirst found you like a flower in a. desert unworthy of Such beauty? Come, kiss me, and try to confide in me a little “:hilc yet. I wish to make you happy. I love you truly. and dt-urly; but I have much upon my mind of which I cannot. speak freely. Try to be contented here a little longer; Llwn, perhaps. the mys- tery will end. You will try, won’t you?" "Yes, George; I will try!" So the discussion ended. and for a. time things Went on as they had done bi‘fOl'C. His absences became more frequent and more prolonged; but Annie, since that last talk with him, had learned to look with dif- fcrent eyes upon her lot. and bore all without a. murmur. Slw could not blame him. she loved him too well for that: and after all, she thought she. could not rationally blame him for anything. Ho had done all that ho could do. 110 had made her his wife he had given her a. homo lit for the greatest lady, he had even allowed her to write to her friends, saying that: she was happy. He could do no more. But this blissful state of things was not. destined to last. Redruth came to her one day and told her that the house in which she lived had become too expensive for his méans; that; he had taken rooms for her. and that. she must remove to them with all possible speed. Annie was quite content. to do as he wish- ed. She had never had much taste for splendid surroundings, and the house. \rirhout her husband, was dreary enough. Accm'dingly. she was removed to the apartments. in which I afterward found her living, in the Strand. “Very little happvnvd to me worth tolling," said Annie, continuing her nurrativv. “until that day when I met you, Hugh. Ah! I shall never forgot that. day. After you lmd’loft me. being dragged away by those men who aCCUSud you of murder, I remained in that room stunned and stupcliod, utturlv incapable of realizâ€" ing- what, had happened. Then it all came back to me. I seemed to see again your rnproachl‘ul lookâ€"to hear “OH. WAD SOME POWER THE GIFTI'E GIE US, TAE SEE OOHSELS AS [TREES SEE US.” OMEMEE ONT., THURSDAY, JULY 30. 1903. aright, but having onco begun it seemed easy for him to continue. " ‘No,’ he replied, ‘you are not my wife. It you hadn't; been a lit- tle fool you would have known it long ago.’ “ ‘We went through a marriage ceremony,’ he replied, ‘because I wanted to guard against long faces and reproachful looks. After the ceremony you were perfectly con- tented, but I knew that We were no more men and wife then then W's had been before. The ceremony Was a mock one, the registrar was an impostor, whose services I had bought; it he hadn't been he would never have performed the ceremony in the evening; if you hadn't been a fool you would have known that. a. marriage is no marriage that is per- formed after thlve o’clock in the day.‘ “"Bfit we were married,’ I persis- ted. ‘ ‘ "Again I looked at him in petrifi- ed anmzunmnt; then, realizing what all this mcunt to me. I fell Subbing at his foot. “4‘ :oorgo,’ I cried, ‘tell me you are not. in earnestâ€"say it is not truc!‘ But all his love for me Seem- ed to have died away; without a. look he turned from me. “ ‘lt is trun!‘ he said. “‘Al1!. don’t; say so.’ I cried, clinging helplessly to him. ‘Say that. I am your wife; it. is the only comfort I have had left to me dur- ing all theSc weary months that have passed away since I left; my home! Do not take that from me! In Hom'vn's name, have pity! Ah. you would have me think ill of you; but I will not. You would novur be so base as to deceive me so! You, whom I loved and trusted so much. would never wreck my life and break my heart. I'll not believe but. you are my husband still!’ "I covered my face with my hands, and crifid bitterly. After awhile he came to me and raised me from the floor. “ ‘Annie.’ he said, 'my poor little girl, bu comforted. I hzwu told you the trmliâ€"you are not my wiie! You can never be that; the. difference in our stations is so great that 8. mar- riage with you would be my ruin.

Love is still love. despitn the world!’ " 'Love is not love,‘ I repliod, 'till sanctified and proved. You have prol‘aned it! You have ln‘oknn my heart. and destroyed my peace for- (-xu-x'.’ “ ‘You talk wildly, Annio.‘ he reâ€" tumod. “I tell you I will atone. All 1 have is: yours: and I will devote it to your happiness. Can you not for- give mo?’ “ ‘Furgivo you?‘ I l'oplivd. ‘Yos, God help me, I forgive you. Good- bye!’ “ ‘Why. where are you going?“ “ 'Rack to my homo.‘ “Boforo I could say more. the ex- pression on his face changed. " 'l swo.’ he said; ‘you wish to ruin me. To publish all over the village the story of what I have done. You will not, stand alone disgracedâ€"you would disgrace me, too. But, I am not such a. fool as to lot you. You are with me now; you will remain with me until I choose to let: you go.‘ “At. the time, I did not know of anything that. had happened at St. (:urlottfls since I had left it.
