"You have been until now my king my guide, my helper along ‘the path of duty. You must not turn me from the path of duty now. The path is a path of torture, but I must take it. I will pray Ged to forgive me the sin I comâ€" mit in linking my life with the life of this other man, who, as you say, is no: a mar who is nothing to you, and promise to love him, and to be his for ever, while, every thought of your heart is turning with longing towards anotherâ€"towards me? I call this cin. Do/you think that God will not call it sin also? Oh. love,| love, take care! Don‘t wreck my life, 28 ; well as yours without. baving 'chough:l deeply and prayed long for light. If ib, were not for the other man, I could bring myself to say that I believe you to be -'io-‘ ing right. It is the thought of the other man that fills me with doubt and rebelâ€" lion. Perhaps this is only human jeaiâ€" ousy; it is only human that I, could steel myself to endure the loss of you with less misery if you were not going to another. If we could be true to each other all our, lives I could be almost satisfied. But that you, who are mine, should go to himâ€"ol, Christine, Christine, cannot youâ€" undo what you have done? Is there no way of saving your mother than, through ‘this ‘bitter sacrifice of our great love and of our brignt future?". _ | The pleading of his voice, ofuhis touch, of his burning look were almost more than the unhappy girl could withstand. "Christine, are you sure that you ‘are right in resolving to undertake this sactiâ€" fice? Are you sure that you mwill be doâ€" ing right to go up before God‘s altar with "Christine!" he called her eoftly, "if the words we speak are indeed the last we aro ever to speak, at leaet come close to me, aud, say. them with your lips mnear my own." But Christine hesitated. "To be near you and to hear you sPCAk make it so much harder for me," she murâ€" mured unsteadily. ‘"This is what they have been afraid_ ofâ€"my mother and â€" Lord Southport. They wanted me to let them take me away from here without seeing you, without caying goodâ€"bye to you. They were afraid lest your love and your preâ€" sence should tempt me to feel that, after all, nothing mattered but your own selâ€" fish happiness. They .were right to feel that the temptation would be great; it is greater than they know. It grows greatâ€" er with every moment that you look at me, with every word that you speak to me. But God will give me strength â€"to overcome it, for my mother‘s sake and for the sake of the others to whom I am bound by the tic of blood." She yielded to the pleading of his outâ€" stretched hands. and dreow closer to him and knelt down by his side, bending her head low until her candid, young foreâ€" head rested despairingly against his arm. He caw her shoulders shake . with rising sobs. "Will you not help meâ€"to do my hard duty, rian?" she appealed, to him.. "Help me by turning me from you, by speaking harshly to me. Your love and the life we planned together open such a vision of Heaven to me that it is breaking my heart to turn aside." His hands rested on ker head; his voice foll baseechingly on her car. "So you knew? You knew?" Christine gasgped in consternation, which for a few moments. made her ‘helpless. "So she â€" my motherâ€"was one of those women whose names you could not tell me?" Sho wa‘tâ€" ed to recover her breath, and then pantâ€" ed onâ€"‘To know this makes me love you more, now that I could pray heaven fto teach ime in mercy how to love you less, ifor there is no hope for us; this as sure as that we two are together at this moâ€" ment:: Some one who‘s powerful and danâ€" gerous has found ount the dark spot, and will only ibe silent at the price of the sacâ€" rifice of our whole life‘s happiness, yours and mine. I cannot see what reason lies at the back of this condition; but I know there is no chanco for mercy, and so I have promised to yield and to suffer. Brian, how could I do otherwise? If I had refused, my mothor‘s . heart and spirit would have ‘been Jroken together, and the disgrace that would have followâ€" od would have struck her her deathblow. Think, Brianâ€"I am now almost her only whild; certainly the only child she can turn to in her great need. How could I refusee her any sacrifice when she pleadâ€" edâ€"to mo in her extremity? All that is left for me to pray for now is that you may understand and will not blame_ Or reproach me, even in your heart. Only tell.me that you understand, that you forgive, and that you do not doubt my love for you. Th‘s is what my heart /s aching for." Hardy azswered quretly, without flinching under her searching look. "I knew the whole dark story long ago, before. even I knew and loved you. I have known the story for years, and have suffered in deâ€" fence clf its cecrecy. You wondered once why your mother had writtenr to me long ago, and hal come often to see me, holdâ€" ing, what you called, mysterious dealings with me. I have known all, and yet I have never felt that your sweetness . and soul purity and true honor were flecked in even the least degree by this dark spot which had stained the family record through no fault of yours. And how shall this longâ€"past sinâ€"if it must be called sin â€"como between us now? It cannot! _ It shall not! We will not let. it come . beâ€" tween us." Brian Hardy had sunk into his chair now. Ib was evident that he was still very ifar from complete recovery after the long, dangerous illness which the pursuâ€" ing hatred of an unknown enemy had criminally caused him. His features were hard set now, and his face was pale with & greyish paleness which flled Christine with alarm. +4 A etrong impulse was urging him to rush forward through the gilent, blinding snow to appeal to her, to seize her, to hold bor back with a decperate, defiant cry that love came before all things, even before filial duty. But heâ€"conquered himâ€" self and held himself back, telling himâ€" ~ self that he was selfish. Thon the urgâ€" | ing voice within him told that at least he ,might go and take another farewell of her; her goodâ€"bye just now had been S0 | hurried, so lacking in friendliness. Surely he, who in three weeks‘ time was to have been her bridegroom, had still a right to asi{ of her another and a sweeter leaveâ€" taking!

B c tm o "Sho asked you to do thisâ€"for my sake?" he cried quickly. "And you and eleven other men volunteered to do it, and have stood out there for hours already on this bitter night?

Why should he charpen the bitter pain at her heart by forcing her to bid him a recond goodâ€"bye? Better notâ€"better not. In merecy to her â€"â€"yes, and even to himselfâ€"it was better to stay where he was and let her go as sho was going without plunging the knife again into her breast. He moved back toâ€" wards his seat by the table, but rememâ€" ibered suddenly that ho had |seon a man walking up and down outside the tent, beating his arms to keep himself warm. He called the man in, and recognized in him one of the regular attenders at his openâ€"air religious services. Dâ€" P â€" O COD COs oonate es He heard the two horses attached to the weiting carriage come down the road at a brisk pace, which indicated that sho longâ€"delayed summons ‘from my Lord Southport and Lady Dare had at last been given. He heard the noise: stop at the edge of the road dizectly opposite ‘the doorway of the tent. Rising with some difficulty to his feetâ€"he was astonished toâ€"night at his own weaknessâ€"he crossed the bare floor of hardâ€"trodden grass to the doonway opening, and stood there clutchâ€" ing the edge of the canvas with the trembâ€" ling fingers of one unsteady hand, and looking out through the driving snow . to where ‘the lamps of the brougham glimâ€" mered faintly thizty yards or so away. So thicxk was the veil of snow between, unil lumined now by the moon, which. had made the little patch of common likea bit of fairyland a few hours earlier in _the night, that to a person of ordinary ,sig'-ht thoce lamps would. hayo been ‘almose, if not quite, indistinguwehable. But the s6tâ€" featured, burningâ€"eyed man who watched from the entrance of the ten‘t was. noworâ€" dinary person; at least, not in these moâ€" ments, when the whole fabric of his life‘s hopes lay shattered about him. , Thogse two bzrougham lamps meant for him . 90 much {that he believed his straining eyes would etill have seen them. even ha& they been at double the distance away. . For where they were there was she who was going from him for ever; going from him, not in anger, not in indifference, but writh her dear, true heart yearning backward towards him, and with her future road of life strewn with as?es before her, as was his whom she was leaving behind her deâ€" solate. 5 j t f "Goodâ€"bye!" . She drow Brian‘s . head down near to hers and gave him a tenâ€" derly reverent and sacred farewell kiss before the eyes of the man who stood in the doorway. Then she went out, leaving | that bare and simple interior of the tent as dark to its occupant as though no lamp was there to shed ‘a dim, yellow light around it. 3 > | Pon and ink and a few sheets of noteâ€" paper were on the plain deal table. Preâ€" sently they caught Brian‘s eyes, which at first had rested only~ vacantly upon them. He leaned forwara, took up the pon, and began to write a letter. The letter began thus:â€"‘To the unknown man who sooks my life." life "Surely I am the first man to be dogged and shadowed like this in this country in these matter offfact day«!" he exclaimed half aloud. "It is strangeâ€"very strange. I wish I could find the key to it! I wish I could find the man.. If I could find him and could get him into my power I think T should let him escape punishment . on condition that he told mo the true meanâ€" ing of his hatred of meâ€"â€"of me, who have never consciously wronged any human be: ing. lf he would tell me that, and would also tell me what good my‘ death could do him, I would frankly letihim goâ€"to try again if he would. I always thought that poor men had no enemies, but my case makes an exceution to this rule. It is very curious and very unaccountable.‘ _ "Whoever the man is, I ought at least to be grateful to him for giving me someâ€" thing else to think about in this hour be: sides my terrible misery," he added bitter ly, still in the low voice of one who has no hearer but himself. + _ He lay back in his chair and passed his hfimd over his forchead as if he felt pat there. When. with a shaking hand, Brian Hardy had writton thece words across the top of the sheet of paper which lay on the deal table in front of him, he waited. a fow moments and ecanned them with a new expression in his almost despairing oyes: | ( jays s avls thing to me. I eee now that it might have ‘ been better if I had done as they wished, | and had gon> without séeing you. I love. you so! I love you so! And now that you | are more than ever in daily and in hourâ€" ty danger, I want to be with you always ‘to protect you, shielding your life with my own if need be. But this cannot be 10w. I must cay goodâ€"bye. I wanted to say it to you with my own lips instead of vriting it, and now I do so. Goodâ€"byeâ€" roodâ€"bye. I would ask you to try to forâ€" :ot me if I did not know that this could tever be. I shall never forget you, and I hall always watch your life from afar, ind see by whatâ€"steps you make your up: ward way in the world. GoodIbye; we} are forgetting that my. mother is waitâ€" ing." Shaken in every nerve, Brian Hardy rose unsteadily to his feet. He caught her in his arms and held her against his heart Then, locking up, he. saw the figure of Southport standing in the doorway wich impatience and sudden, jealous anger blazing in his eycs. And the man whom Chrictine loved released his hold of her and let her gomto the man whom che loved not at all, yet who by a freak of chance, had won her back. : CHAPTER XIL § To the unknown tmman who seeks my the ;';Alu}'l:t'e“e.r guard ventured to de lecking at him oddly the while.

The peace treaty which will end the present war will be imposed on Germany and Austria by the three allied powersâ€"Great Britain, Rusâ€" sia and Franceâ€"who will be actuâ€" ated by the following prifMciples : Firstâ€"A war indemnity which will represent the damages caused by the war. Secondâ€"As, regards terâ€" ritorial acquisitions, the allies will show disinterestedness. Thirdâ€"All other considerations will be suborâ€" dinated to this oneâ€"viz., the elimâ€" ination of the causes of future warâ€" fore. Fourthâ€"This will be the sole object in view in the reorganization of Germany and Austriaâ€"Hungary. Fifthâ€"In bringing about this reorâ€" ganization the allies will take acâ€" count of the groups called nationalâ€" ities, but without giving them the fictitious importance attributed to them by political anthropology. . . . In order that a treaty have legal force there must be a mandatory whose duty it shall be to see that the stipulations of the treaty be strictly carried out, writes Yves Yuyot in North Ameérican Review. In 1815, for instance, the Triple Alâ€" liance first and the Quadruple Alâ€" liance afterward undertook _ this task, and in the present instance the three allies will have to enter into a similar agreement and disâ€" tribute the roles between them, so that if one of the conquered powers should try to escape the conseâ€" quences of its defeat it will immeâ€" diately find itself in such a position that a single injuncetion will suffice to obtain strict observance of the treaty.
