J "Tell me how to call into action these capacities, if by so doing I can be assimilated to you and made more worthy of yon, Astarte, my soul's life!" he exclaimed, as h? seized her hand and covered its delicate surface with kisses. She drew it from his grasp, and without replying to his request, said dreamily : "Do you in dec il love me so dearly? I cannot seo why you should!" "Oh! Asterte! since by no othor namo I may call yon, you alone aro ignorant of your powerful charms!

I know that I love you, and I desire to know nothing more!" was the low, passionate reply, while the lins of the young speaker quivered with the violence of his emotion. "You are generous, you are noble, and your fresh, young love deserves ; A roturn proportionate to its own rare value-such return I cannot . give," and the lady pressed her jowcl .ed bund heavily upon her forehead. Her lover bounded upward like a creature which has received a sudden arrow in some vital part, stood erect for an instant, and then sank quiver? ing down among the cushions at the lady's feet. "Hush! hush!" she said, laying the tips of her pearly fingers upou his lips, to stop the flood of bitter, pas? sionate words which burst from him as he writhed in the anguish caused by hor last words.
