lb-ally,(^wenilolen^ Im-itiiii Mr*.
Walter*,but lu-r expostulation was uip|Msd^in the bud.
''Don'tinterrupt me,^ eoiitiniicil (iwen,^^I have o|M-uc^d my lipa now for the tlr*t^time mi this Hiibject, anil I mean to any^one or two tbinir* lM-fore 1 clo*c them. I^want to a*k you a plain, straightforward^qne*t.jou. W by did you marry Mr. Will-
Imarried him,^ replied Sylvia, with a^ring of defiance in her voice, ^Ik-cuum*- he^asked im* to flo ao.
Andthat,^ replied Gwendolen, ^ia not^a reason worth giving. If anyone bail^told me two year* ago that Mr. Walter*^was going to u*k you to marry him I^^diould have imagined you dropping bun^u euriscy ami refusing him in these word*:^^Hoiiom-I air, a woman, not to aay a girl^of l'.i, may not marry her grand^^father. l*-snles which the chance* of
familyjar* will ho much inorrwd^if I accept an offer front my aunt's^brother-in-law. Oh. Sylvia!^ and here^(iwen sighctl once more. ^I think you^math* a mistake. It liaa always seemed^to me that yuti were not ouite yourself^when you accepted Mr. W alters. Yimi^might as well oonfeas to your only slater^that you consider you wen- a little over-^hasty.
Hiwen!^cried Sylvia angrily, ^how^dan- you! Why should I rewret what 1^diil'.' You often aay that you never saw^any one so kind to his wife as Mr.Walters^is to me. I only Im^|m^ that you may he as^fortunate yourself when you realise your^ideal. Mian-over, mother approved of^what I flid. You know it was her great^comfort on her ilcatlihcd to ff-el that I^was pmviiled for and that my. huslMtnd's^liouse could Im- your home.'*
That is lM-gging the question.^ re-^joined Sylvia obstinately. ^ I am not re-^ferriiiK to Mr. Walb-rs' conduct since^your marriage, hut to your own lM^fon- it.^I merely want to hear the story of how-^ami why you fell iu love with your liua-^huud. His learning and |* act-fill di*|Mwti-^tinn are his moat striking qualities, ami^you wen- not the girl to Im- fuaciiiated by^eitln-r inn- or tin- otla-r.
bove is not a matter of hard-and-fast^rules.^ said Sylvia. ^People may fall in^love without knowing why.
I don't think *o. Then- must Im- some^attraction. If I could ace any for myself^I would not ask you. For instance, if I^Im-hIowihI my alTii-tiou* on your opposite^m-ighlMir, tin- n-iiHim would Im- *^-lf-^-vi-^ili-nt. I should need no justification.
Shouldn't you^ Well. I should think^a young woman who handed her heart out^tin- wimlow to a young man with whom^sin- Im* never exchanged a won I would^need a gotsl ileal of justitlcation.
Nay,said (iwen, smiling, ^il would^just Im- love at first sight. Now let us slqs
JMMM-,for a moment, that Mr. Walter* wa*^ike Prince ('harming.^^^I shall not siip|m^se anything of tin-^Mi iiilerruptiil Mr*. Walti-r*. with an^angry Hash. ^Nor will 1 hear any more of^this kind of talk. It im utterly purposeless,^uml shows very little consideration for my^feelings.
Iam aorry,^ said Gweii. |*-iiitcntl.v. ^if^I have vi-Keif you. It never M-cinod to me^as if you could i-an- what one Maid; but I^will aay no more alsmt Mr. Wulter*. any^^way. Hut there ia one thing which I did^want to say iiImhiI I'rinee ( harming how^I wish I knew In* real name! which is^that 1 am sure I have seen him lM-fore^Dik-s he strike you in the Maine light'.'
HutSylvia slnsik her head.
I've-bari-ly seen him now,^ she said,^bonding over her work. ^I caught sight^of u smart young man; but their name is^legion, and they an- all much alike.
Ibeg your pardon. Sylvia ; but you are^much mistaken if you think our MMM^neiglilMir ia just u stcrcotyi*-d young man^of fashion. If you haven't seen him Im-^fore, I'm Miin-1 have only *c^ n him, you^know; not made his acquaintance. I^must try to n-ini-iiilM-r when-. We went^kniM-king al*^ut mo much in the old^day* that it ia dillieillt to rei-all such^things.
(^wi-iiilob-n,^answered Mr*. Walter*,^trying Ito make her fair young face a*^acven-Iy matronly a* she felt she ouglM to^make it, ^1 must lM-g of you to talk no^more of the young man who live* oppo^^site. I tell you I will not countenance^your trying to get up a flirtation across^the stni-t. If Mr. Walter* knew he would^Im- cxtn-iiiely annoyed.
Wouldhe'.^* said (iwen. demurely.^^Well, if you tell him, mind you mention^tin- fact that the I'rinee Charming'* dem^^onstrations have gone MMMM the limits^of curiosity. lb- hasn't done anything to^w Inch tin- primmest of |*-ople could raise^an objection, lb- is merely almost a llx-^tui-c at his wimlow.
Amithen Miss (Gwendolen Itivers went^bm-k to her easel, and Mr*. Walters then^began to look deeply engrossed in tin^shading of her embroidery- silks: but it^wa* it long time Is f.ne she could decide^whether she was looking at terra cotta or^cartlinal red. I'crhap* (iwi-n moiiopoli/ed^M iiim-li ^^f tin- scant allowance of Lou^^don daylight.
Sylvia,^*aid (iwen that night, as they^went to tln ir riMims, ^just come iu here^for a Moment, I've thought it all out^;ib.nit MM ( harillillg. I've Im-cii^puzxliiig over it all evening. Didn't you^notice how quiet 1 wa*'.' Now, don't look^iiiqiiitieiit; you must listen. It's quite in-^tcresting, and then- is nothing to scold^me for.
Well,(iwen, to M|M-uk frankly 1 am^quite tired of this romancing about our^MMMMM neighbor. You talk of nothing^else.
There^*nothing else half so illtercst-^iugto talk of,^ retortcil *aui-y (i wen. ^You

I was at school at Mis*^Parkinson's, anil 1 was so jealous of you^having *ucli a nice jaunt. Then mother^wrote to say that ihailoguc didn't agree^with you at all, and that you wen- going^w ith aunt Lucy down into ^ ornwall, anil^that 1 could come to Im- with her instead^of you. I thought it was awful fun,^though it seemed a pity you hail Im-cu^knocked up uml couldn't stay on and^have your share of it. That was when^and where 1 saw Prince ('harming: he^was staying at Koiiloguc, t^si, anil we^used to see him at the I-'.till^lisscnictit. lb-^was not quite so handsome then |iis hi- is^now : but 1 took the greatest interest mi^him. I even have reuu nils red his tiaiiic.^It is Harvey I'crricr. Wo did not know^him.

In-ally can't tell you ; perhaps I did.^^^No wonder you can't n-i-ollcct,^ laugh^^ed (iwoudoloii. ^considering you went^straight oil to St. Pimi^m-k anil hew itched^that continued old bachelor. Mr. Walters.^I think myself it would have Imm-ii more^romantic to have staid on at Hoiiloguo and^have iM-witchcd Prillee ('harming.
Mrs.Walter* suppressed a yawn, ami^thou got up from the easy chair.

Ils-g your pardon, sir.^ lM-gaii Prince^( harming. ^I ti*^k the liberty off sending^up tin- card you In.hi to Miss Kivors.

Mr.Walter* iMiwcd again. His manner^was solemn, hut not unkindly, and his^visitor was far too sanguine to no eu*ily^repelled.
Iwill lint make any Uniicccsaury |Mf^^amble,^ said Prince Charming. ^I am^not clever ut lM-utiug about tin- bush. It^is Just this: About two years ago, ut Hou^^logiic, when- Miss Kivors wa* staying^with her mother, I fell tk-sperutfly ill love^with her^
Justwhen I fell iu love with Sylvia,^^iiiiis. il Mr. Walter*; uml bo felt very sym^^pathetic.
Iwas horribly badly off,^ pursued^Prince ('harming, ^mo Ludy Kivera thought^1 acted dishonorably in telling her daugh^^ter the stall- of my feelings. She was ox-^ccsaivoly angry, anil I made u great find^off myself. i'bo fact was, wo won- l*^tb^so fond off each other, and so unhappy.
P^m^ryoung thing*!^ *uid Mr. Walters,^feelingly ; then, us he thought of the light-^hcurtod Gwendolen, he aihlcil: ^Hut sin-^has got over it wonderfully.
Outwardly,perhaps,^ replied Prince^( harming. ^I thought niysctf, when I^caught *ight of her from tin- hnu*e opiM*-^sitc, where I am just now in rminiK, that^she looked much older and MM worn.^Hut muylM- the iliMtunce iki-i-iveil mo.^However, I am sure she will not have for-^gotlou.

Keally.Hiiiil Mr. Walters, with a *eri-^oiim smile. ^Hut if you could not att'ord^to marry then ia it any ll*4- of your think^^ing of n-nowing your courtship now V
Y'cs,sir. i-ertuilily,^ rwplu-d Ferrier,^Ktunlily. ^I am in a Is-tti-r iH^*ition now;^I have got out of all my dilucultics; I've^settled down into Is ing the steadiest of^men all for love off hor. 1 have a gissl^uppoiiitnieiit ut Chatham.

May I^lM-g of you to put me iu communication^with l-idy Kivor* at once*.*
LadyRivers,^ aiiswored Mr. Walters,^^is dead. The young lady is now my^ward, but ill this matter I shall use no co^^ercive authority. It will ro*t, no doubt^greatly to your satisfaction, entirely w ith^Tier to give you your miwer.
Forriorrose, trembling with iiucx|M-ctod^delight, ami belli out his baud to the man^who s|Mikc such words of comfort.
Slu-is iu the next mom,^ wont on Mr.^Walter*, kindly. ^I will cull her.

Thisdid Ml reach Mr. Walters' ears.^Hut he did not hear a bitter cry, as if off^pain, and then a sound of stilled sobs;^it was u strange greeting to pass Is tween^long-aevcn-d, *till-ho|m-fitl lovi-r*.
Hestood patiently ilriuumilig on the^window for a while, until In- heard a II isty^rush of |M across the lauding ami down^the stairs.

career.What was its nature no one^knows. It did not embitter, but softened^and hallowed his life. He seemed to have^taken the conseeratiiur vows of philan^^thropic and charity. He went about do^^ing good. A self-appointed physician and^nurse, no epidemic has occurred in forty^years in the south that Judge Milo Olin^did not at once set out for the scene of^pestilence anil danger.
Duringthe yellow fever epidemic in^Augusta, a generation ugo, be had the^fever, and as soon as lie recovered went^to nursing ntliers in Savannah, Memphis,^Norfolk, W'ilniingtoii. Fcrnandiiuv, New^Orleans and Jackson villi-. Wherever the^dread disease was at work Judge Olin^was to be found. He knew no fear. No^ease was tin louthsomc, no disease too^dangerous to stop him iu Ills work of hu^^manity and charity. He was no profes^^sional nurse, charging high wages and^getting rich on tlic misfortunes off bis fel^^low-men. Hi- refused all pay and pre^^sents from those ho nursed hack to life^and strength and n-|K^rted to the relief^committee for duty without wage* of any^kind. He was lender, tireless, ami intel^^ligent.
Whenlie reached u patient's side he^m-cded no physician to toll him what to^do. Ho had more faith ill his long experi^^ence than ho had ill the medical training^off most physicians, and then- was always^u small mortality among the eases which^ho nursed. Not only did ho n-ffuso money^and costly presents, hut ho would accept^no costly testimonials from cities, socie^^ties anil other organizations, hut ho never^paraded them, anil no one could elicit^from him any thing of hi* self-Hue rifle ilia^work for publication. When In- entered^u stricken city tin- press learned nothing^from him off his heroic part, and on his^return home nothing of the privations ho^buil endured, the service Im- had n-nden-d,^anil the thanks that had been showered^upon him.

Hi- was over Mix feet tall,^slender, anil bent with age. Long, white^hair fell nl*^ut his shoulder* and u long,^|H^inted Is-ard reached nearly to his waist.^Save when- the- use of simll' bad stained^his mustache his hair wu* white us snow.^Within his crown of white hair was a^long, wan face with di-i-|sset eyes, u kind^of ltciicvolcut countenance, yet almost^woinl in its pallor. The plainest sort of^clothes covered his long, sttsipillg form,^and he hajked like sonic old partisan of a^former ugo.
Milo(lliu came to Augusta fifty years^ago from New York.
