When Mary Conway uttered those
scathing words, "I have never teased
to reproach myself t'< r having I ath- 1
yon. Now. with all my In-art. I thank
God for it." tlicy wire followed hv ;
long, dead silence, she, slight and frail
and ashen white, stood I oldly flouting
hiiD, her eyes filled with in?eti?est
scorn and showing no shred of the fear
witli which her heart was quaking; he.
divided between rage and astonishment.
.inst touched with shatnu that he
ahonhl have raised his hand to a woman,
and that wouian his ymiii^ wife. So
they stood until at last he found words
with which to speak.
"So yon loathe ine. do y. u ."
An older or a wiser wot. an might
hare given a softer answ. r than leaped
to Mary (.'onwav's lips in reply. V s,"
she said harshly. "Unlv loathing is too
mild a word.
"But you marrii <1 i... ' V< i w re
witling enough to mairy l ie ! he said,
gnawing at his undetlip vicim:- lv.
"Willing! Never!" sin Hash d out.
"I married you. it i- true, with feel
ings of gratitude, with a d>-it
any best to repay y..u for the in* n y yon
had laid out. with a b? i: t that yoti
were kind and 1 it net tli 1 v! r < f
my heart nor tie lmsi.au.1 of mv imagination.
1 have h arm d sin > that 11 j. r
was no need of gratitude from me t"
yon; that there was no kind:: ?s v
goodness in the help y. u gave during
my mother's illness: that every day .he
nnrse remained, every drop f wine
my mother drtmk, every straw'erry
she ate, was entered into an account
which I was to pay one day with my
very heart's blond. Well, you have had
your pound of IB sli. y u have h. tight
your wife, and the bargain is complete,
the debt all paid. Today you have
broken every bond, every link, every
chain, between us. 1 bear your name;
that's all."
"Is that your last word, Marv?'
"Yes, my hist word. No, I am not
afraid of you. My poor little frail hodv
is afraid, horribly, desperately afraid
if yon. but my heart ami soul and all
iiui .-> u?.-m or uic?never?never ?
never 1''
"You'll bo glad when I'm gone?'
"Thankful."
"You'll never remember anything of
what I did for you?"
"I shall always remember you as the
man who struck me."
"You'd like to be free of me?"
.She drew a deep lnvath more significant
than words. He laughed aloud, a
laugh void of merriment, such as one
might hear from the fiends in hell.
"You'd like nie to provide for yon
perhaps? To make you a suitable allowance
and clear out myself, eh? To leave
you and your old mother"?
"Leave my mother out of it!" she
cried fiercely.
"Oh, I've no wish to say anything
against her!" he retorted. "To do lier
full justice, she's always been appreciative
enough of me. a thundering deal
more so tliati you have. Still she's there
She's got to be reckoned with, to be
provided for, and you'd liko to see her
end her days in comfort."

Mary started at the direct question
She was accustomed to hearing !ier
mother babble aimlessly on from subject
to subject, but a change of ti tie
always called for attention "My InceY'
she said slowly, putting up her hand to
the red mark "Oh. it got knocked 1"
For half a word she would have burst
out with* the whole story, but in her
sudden upward glance she had noted
Mrs Hamilton's serene, well satisfied
i xpr^ssi in. the look of care a?nl att? ntion
which pervaded hci whole persoii,
her smart gown, her dainty little coquettish
cap All these things meant
money. Alt these little details were tithe
breath of life to the sh;:Mow and
uarrow soul who had never before
known what it was to level in a fairly
good iuccme. As the conviction came
home to her Mary's heart failed or ba r
ta tter nature prevailed, so that she kept
the truth to lu is elf.
"It got kit >cked. ' ' she said 0Vasi\ ly
and Mis. Hamilton was satisfied She
went into a loug dissertation of how she
i nee had run against a closet dot r in
the dark and of bow "your poor latin r'
said that lier face looked exactly as if
some one had struck In r. and in the
midst of this Mary suddenly r> m. > ibeted
something that would eariy h r
up stairs, and oisee in the shelter of tier
own room she fought with In r [hi
and mis> ty?ay., as di.?p? lately as any
martyr fought with beasts of old in the
