over ,.ho chanced to be the besi *pleaaed

Ada Uniting, tho daughter of nap

Livingston, and so she set herself about
to have it as she wished.* Fortune

pfrsuadn Mr. ?w?d Mra. Whiting ?c leavo
their daughter to hor love and care.
Aud so the beautiful Ada bucntuc one
of Mrs. Livingston's 'family.
Ada was beatftiful, truly; perfeot in
form and features', with n shower of
golden ringlets ; a complexion fair, aud
as delicately tinted as the pearly sea
t-ludl; eyes ue blue ns the summer sky?
languishing eyes, that ever flowed with
tho same soil, sweet light. s??
Never were two w jmen more dissimi

Aud when Mrs. Livingston saw them
standing together, sh'i thought how
much Ada's beauty was enhanced by
thre contrast, for Aillecn wus a pale,. saL
low, little tliiugj whom no one had over
thought pretty, and. beside the fair
beauty that Mrs. Livingstou had deter
mined should be her daughter, the poor

until she was Bout for uud came.
"Why do yoji do so, Ralph ?" MrB.

Never for a moment had be thought, of

he called for Ad^to come and cool his
?fevered brow, the doctor tried to soothe
him, and hide thu shameful truth. She

Oh, how he suffered ! No gentle

breathed, it -not. ?5he must not come
near to him to" breatlie the fatal air.
Lying thinking of her he felt a soft little
hand pressed gently on his brow. She
was with hiihT, kneeliog by his side.
"Ailecn ! Ailecn ! darling, awoy '.
uway !" he cried. Do you know 'tis
death here '?" i 4%
. "No, Ralph 'Tis life to bo^witlh you,*'
she answered, pressing her lips to his
and inhaling his death bearing breath.
She stayed by him, clung to him.
Death was robbed of his terrors then, i
The lost souud that fell Ott hhi car was*j
an agoniziug cry from Ailauii, as they
strove to draw her from him.
And Halph Livingston spraug up?
not from death, but his dream ? and
stood gnxiog bewildered nt the scone be
fore him. Ada und Ailcen both stood
by; the first pale and trembling; the
other pale too, but with a look of de
termination and courage On the
ground a few paces from her leet, lay a

In a moment, Ralph, as if by instinct,
knew nil. And Ada in the same sweet
emotiouless manner, told that they had
come to hunt for him, by bis mother's
desire, and found him sleeping. And
she had stooped down to awaken him,
when she had discovered the dreadful
snake stealing round his neck. She run
away so frighteued. And Aileen went
up, ul.hougl/ehe told her it would suroly
bite her?and caught it close up by the
head, drew it off and dashed it to the
ground.
Ralph's dream flashed back to his
miud so vividly then ! and he felt to
ward Aileen as he bad never before,and
was much relieved to be sure that he
was not bound to the cold, beautiful
girl beside him, and believed if she
should ever be bis, it would be as in the
dream. If danger thieaUned, she would
fly. While Aileen?dear, noble, loving
