She pleaded like a child and Aung brought her the ‘"The end of September," repeated Marah, bewlldered. "How long have I been {i1?" "Spven weeks." ° Marah thought it over in silence, her mind travelling painfully back to her homeâ€"coming, the journey to Southfleld, and the events that had preceded it. All through her iliness eho had been intermittently consâ€" clous of Waring and his love for her. Now the thought of it came back to her clearly and precisely. She saw the years since she had loft home spread out like a chart ibefore her, a record of disappointment and vicisâ€" situde and suffering, ending at last In the discovery of her one Happy Ieland. haunted ‘her;â€" she saw, half in deli gium, the ice of gq lakes Q= & ""'mu'u.'g:un:mam' Pit. iug air on mountainâ€"tops and heard the.fresh trickle of hillside brooks. ' After these nights of pain and feâ€" ver the dawn stole in, wan and unâ€" real, the .,hn:“guv alowlyâ€" paler in the growing day, and she turned her hot, swollen eyes toward a streak of ‘ rose in the Rastern eyy. ; ! And always before hor was t.hJ figure of Aune, silent, shapeless, acâ€" companied at night by a gigantic shadow which bobbed up and down on the ceilingâ€"Anne, bending over her with bowls or spoons or mediâ€" cine droppers, shifting her ‘bedâ€" clothes, bathing her warm, oticky‘ body, brushing her tangled, burdenâ€" some hair. So, when ahe was beginâ€" ning to be convalescent, a great love and gratitude toward Anne shook her weak, slowly recovering senses, a love exaggerated and maudlin as the sentimental fervours of a drunkâ€" en man. "Aume," she asked, again, "are there any letters?" â€" "Yes, a good many, of course, but you are not strong enough to see them yet." s R As the days went by, her cone« clousness of the things and people around her sobered and strengthenâ€" ed. There she was in the east room, in the black walnut bed which had angels‘ heads tarved on its back board. There was the oldâ€"fashioned "bureau", with the small drawers on each side of the ewinging glass. The curtaings had been taken away and bte carpot, but the familir pictures still hung on the wall, three steel engravings framed in gilt; a landâ€" «cape with an old mill; the head of a simpering woman with her hair in flowing ringlets, designated as "Betâ€" tina", and Elijah being translated in his chariot of fire, ‘There was also ‘a table covered with bottles in the room, two chairs, and on the mantelâ€" piece an onyx clock which didn‘t go. ‘The walls wore hung with figured blue and white paper of a nonde: ecript pattern, wherein Marah‘s fancy discerned an innumerable series Of erouching blue apes. . "Certainly, dear," ho said, and presently Marah‘s gaze feasted on a bunch of buttonâ€"like, reddish chryâ€" santhemums, full of the frosty glow of early autumn, and breatiing an aromatic, herbâ€"like aweetness. "September, the end of Septem: ber." One day, when for hours hor eyes had been travelling wearily from one of these apes to another, her spirit rose in rebellion and she asked if she might have some flowers to look at, It was the first request she had made. Anne was delighted. . « "Aumne," she asked, after a time, "what mouth is it?" In: her..fever lay, heary, and ainâ€"to feo} the wind ruching by and the cool eweep of the key over "He asked a lot of questions about you," Ella went on, "and he asked me to write and tell him when you got well." "‘He asked you to write and tell Marah‘s cheoks grew hot with the rushing blood. She turned her head toward the window so that Ella might not see them. Her heart began to ‘beat with tumultuous happiness. So he had come! He had not neglectâ€" ed her! Only now, in the ecstasy of reassurance, did she rédlise how mtrong and terrible her doubts had been, with what painful effort she had warred against them. "By the way!" she exclaimed. "I never told you, did I, that Leonard Waring came up here from New York once when you were ilI?" Ante looked at Marah as she lay back among the pillows, her black hair falling around her shoulders in a feathery cloud. Her little face was pinched and wan. Her eyes were closed and the dark lashes, which grew in long, starâ€"like rays, rested on her white cheeks. She seemed to lie in bed small, shrivelled, and lamp as a dying flower. Poor, tiredâ€"out Anne, felt the old terror revive as she looked at her. Yet it was not the voice of Death that her sister was hearing, as she lay there, but the mysterious call of life iteelf, thrillâ€" ing, passlonate, and imperious. In several days Marah was able to lie on the couch and even to sit up for a little while every morning in the big armâ€"chair. One afternoon, when Ella was beside her, sho began tn talk of what ahe would do when she got well. ‘I must go back to New York for a few weeks at all events," she said. It was the first hint that any of her sisters had had of her resolution not to live permanently with Mrs. Thompson, but Ella did not notice ite significance. A chill of doubt and apprehension crept over Marah‘s heart and a lump rose in her throat. She was still so weak it seemed impossible for her .to control herself. She felt that she was going to break down and cryâ€" like a little child balked of Its hopes. But with a pathetic effort dhe masâ€" tered this impulse and tried to flndl excuses for her lover. No doubt he kad hesitated to let the family sueâ€" pect the relations between them untii something definite had been gettled. She put out of her mind the insistent thought that there could ‘be nothing compromising or suspicious about the inquiries of an old friend as to one‘s welfare in a eerious iliness. She was sure there was some good reason for Waring‘s neglect of her. With the remembrance of his kiss etill fresh in her heart she could not doubt his love and she let herself drift into eoft, delicious dreams ’ wherein she felt again the strength ‘ of her lover‘s arms around her, his breath on her cheek, the touch of his lips. ‘That was all that counted in , life, that was the scarlet thread, the secret song! 00 "Hasâ€"has any one from New Yorkâ€"inquired about me?" Marah asked, hesitatingly. â€" "Every one had been very kind," observed Anne. "All your old friends in the village and every one." "Oh, no," «Marah replied.. It had occurred to her, of a sndden, that Waring, of course, knew she had heen too il1 to receive any letters and so had not written. ‘I thought there would be more letters," abe said, aloud, "but ua turally people would" not write to me, would they! when they knew J wes not able to read what they wrote." "Cousin Cora, of course, andâ€"let me seeâ€"Oh yes! Miss Lawrenceâ€"I don‘t thipk of any one else." . ‘ y hss t is o tm s 9 > Loaboe neity L ie weu At first anger seemed as etrong in her as regret, her pride suffered as much as her love, but later that night when she was alone in her bed (Anne sleeping in the next room), it was the mere agony of loss that overwhelmed her. She thought of Waring as out on a distant, immeaâ€" surable ocean, borne farther and farâ€" ther away at every breath ahe drow, at every tick of the clock, lost to her for ever. And nothing was left in her soul but desolation. With her head buried in the pillow she repeatâ€" | ed her lover‘s name, poor Marah!â€" over and over, in a atifled, heartâ€"broâ€" ken whisper, which yet had a wild appeal in it, as if in this way she could summon him to. her. ‘Then, ab tuptly, she would seem to detach herâ€" self from her own personality, to stand aslde, as it were, and watch her own suffering with an odd eurâ€" prise and impartiality, thinking, "So I loved him like this!" Through the uncurtained window a star shone into the room, between the branches of a planeâ€"tree, and now and then during the night she looked up at it. It had no comfort, nor significance, nor epiritual message for her. She eaw it numbly, insensibly, in the midst of her wretchedness, a mere luminous body set in the sky. Yet afterwards, when she remembered that night, the star always came back to her mind, shining, violet rayed, and cold, through the branches of the planeâ€"tree.

While her sisters worked over her withâ€"hotwater bagea and «timulants and extra blankets Marah lay and ’ahlvel‘ed, obscurely grateful for the Physical . weakness which cloaked and protected her anguish of mind Now, then, there was no more uncerâ€" tainty. He had gone, left her withâ€" out a word of goodâ€"bye, without exâ€" planation or regret. His love had been only a passionate impulse, cheap and degrading to her. She had been mistaken in him from the beâ€" ginning, misunderstanding even the strength and permanency even the oldâ€"time friendship, colouring with her own, imagination every word and look of his until it had taken on the glow of romance. She had been starving for love and had looked for it so eagerly that she had mistaken for it the most banal acquaintance ship, the most Idle and vulgar flirtaâ€" tion. * If certain moments came back to her, stamped with a truth which geemed to contradict all these wild gasertions, she confronted them with the undeniable factâ€"that Waring had left her without a word of any kind, and routed them from the field of her reason. A moment later, seriously alarmed, sheo flew to Anne saying that Marah had taken cold, and was shaking so tht she almost stirred the couch she was lying on.. ‘"You don‘t seem to take much inâ€" terest in him," said Killa.
