With two. oblique steps to the .right, and a, couple to the left, he gave utter- ance to his emotions in deep ndl heavy" tones so impassioned! thsLti the fisb in the rbasiri propped up themeejves on the ends of their tails and peered over the edge to"' see what the row was about.

St Pe er kissed her then, and said: "Pass in, my little dear; But wind you musn't introduce Sucii'naughty fashions here. A MAN'S STORY. " I loved her, that woman you see going down the street, with the child clingino- - to baud. You look at me wouderingly, for yon have probably come to the same conclusion that most of mv friend have, that I never loved any wo- man. But I tell you, Iiothermel, I 'loved that women ds I shall never love any one else in this wide world. So you see I have ray romance hidden away from curious eyes, as well a3 the rest of vou. I sometimes wonder if the; e can be a life so prosaic that it docs not have a touch of ro- mance in it somewhere. I think m.t. But the world does uot see it and concludes it does not exist. Let me tell you about the ro- mance, Iiothennel. I know you well enough to be quite sure you will not tell it to any one. It would not interest them, if you were to do so, and there is soine-8omtthi- ng about it, as there is alwavs about our sorrows, which prompts me to keep it out of sight ot all but those who can understand me. I met Alice Graem at the White mountains six years ago, and I loved her from the very first time I saw her. There was something about her which seem- ed different f om any woman I had ever met before She is the first and only woman who ever could set my heart in a flutter bj her glance or the touch of her hand. If you ever love a woman as 1 loved her, you will unders stand what I m.ean when I tell you that, thatjsummer was the summer time of lite and all the world to me. The mountains seemed to have caught that "light that never was on land or sea," that 1 heard you reading to Mis3 Fin lay about last uight. The sky was tender as her eyes. The sun- shine seemed to have a new brightness. The world was a new world to me, and all because I loved Alice Gracra. I slw her every day, anjl v.as with her a great deal. We walk- ed together in the wild, delight- ful $ath that wound about the feet of the mountains; what we said to each other I cannot tell, but I know that these long hours spent with her in the silence aud grandeur of the old rocks and the trees, with far above us' the great hills, whose summits seemed to pierce heaven itself, were the sweetest hours I ever knew. The summer went by. and L did not tell her that I loved her. I could not. Ofe . and often the words cam to my lips but I cou d riot utter them. A wild, foolish tear would strike me dumb. 1 have wondered often, since then. -- why I felt as I did, when I tried to tell her the truth. Ii was not because I was afraid of her frowning: on my wooing, for I was sure that she loved me. I had read it in her eyes,and in the telltale color which would rise U her cheeks, sometimes,- - at word or look of mine. 13 ut, for all 1 had nothing- - to fear and every- thing to encourage ins, I was a pitiful coward, and theiove I had to offer was kept to myself. But I told my self that there was no use in hurrying matters. I would see her Vy and by, when the winter came, and that would be time enough. The winter came and we met agaiu. I shall never forget that meeting any more than I shall forget our. parting. It was at a party. VI saw her standing apart from the crowd, and went toward her. She saw me coming, and her eyes lit upas a morning-glor- y That is right. When you cannot Give trouble the slip, Then bear it, still keeping "A stiff upper li?."

If 3rou ever love a woman , you will find that her love is to you on earth what heaven will be when you are dead. I believe that. So will you. I said that I came near showing her my heart. We were alone. I had been reading some poem to her,' and its story of love had car- ried my heart along on its tide of passion, until I felt that it was my own story. I shut the book and turned to her with my heart upcv my lips. Her eyes were strangely tender with the feeling which the pom I had been read- ing had awakened in her breast She smiled into n y eyes E touc. bed her hand asj'ou might touch a ro&e and was drrab! If I had only spoken! Butthfit wildj-curseditea- r was upon me and the happiness of a lifetime slipped from my, grasp, and was! lost forever. I did nol see her again for months. She had gone South to visit some friends. But I dreamed of her. in mv da'-dream- es, and laid my plans for the future, and not one plan wa? woven in which she was not the central thought. SVhen she came back I would speak ouV T would dally no longer. By and by I heard that she had a lover in that Southern city where her friends lived. A fear sprung up in my heart.' What jf 1 should lose her, after all? But the thought that she loved me quieted me. I waited anxiously for her com- ing home. She came at lust, aud the told me that she did not come alono. - I would go to her. I would make my happiness sure. I went to her. She met me with a touch of the brightness in her face. Then it grew pale, and I fancied that she was ill at ease. She did not seem like her old selt. True, I could call the color to her cheek for a moment, at some low word of mine, and her eye3 would light up with the old tenderness, but a switt shadow would fall and hide it all. At last I spoke out: "Alice," I said, "I love yon. I have come t tell you so at last." Her face grew pale as death. Her eye3 filled with a darker suahadow. "Oh, why bare ycu told nte this now?" she cried. "If you had only told me this before!" My heait seemed to slop beat- ing.- ''..." ""You love me!" I cried. "No thing must come between us Ahce." "There is a promise that lean-n- ot break between us," she said; and her voice sounded far away: "I am to marry Douglas Leith. It was then that I realized what I might have had, had it not been for my insane tolly. I had lost her and. God help me! I loved her so well!" "I thought you loved me." I said, by and by, when I could command my voice. ilI did! ' -- he cried, and bursting to a passion of tears. "But I thought you could not care very much tor me, tor you never told me that you loved me." I- - cannot te'l you any more about that last interview, Roth-erme- l. I went away knowing that the woman T had lost loved me, and might have been mine if I had spoken out like a man when I ought to have done so. But I had lost her foreeer. I must go on my way alone, haunt- ed by the memory of what was and is, and of what may not be. Yon never dreamed I wasa haun- ted man, liothyrmal, but I am. When I see that woman, as we saw her just uow, vou cannot guess how my heart cries out tor what it might hrve had, it I had not been a coward.

A MAN'S STORY.
" I loved her, that woman yousee going down the street, withthe child clingino-- to baud. Youlook at me wouderingly, for yonhave probably come to the sameconclusion that most of mv friendhave, that I never loved any wo-
man. But I tell you, Iiothermel,I 'loved that women ds I shallnever love any one else in thiswide world. So you see I haveray romance hidden away fromcurious eyes, as well a3 the restof vou. I sometimes wonder ifthe; e can be a life so prosaic thatit docs not have a touch of ro-
mance in it somewhere. I thinkm.t. But the world does uot seeit and concludes it does not exist.
Let me tell you about the ro-
mance, Iiothennel. I know youwell enough to be quite sure youwill not tell it to any one. Itwould not interest them, if youwere to do so, and there is soine-8omtthi- ng
about it, as thereis alwavs about our sorrows,which prompts me to keep it outof sight ot all but those who canunderstand me.
I met Alice Graem at theWhite mountains six years ago,and I loved her from the veryfirst time I saw her. There wassomething about her which seem-ed different f om any woman Ihad ever met before She is thefirst and only woman who evercould set my heart in a flutter bjher glance or the touch of herhand. If you ever love a womanas 1 loved her, you will undersstand what I m.ean when I tellyou that, thatjsummer was thesummer time of lite and all theworld to me. The mountainsseemed to have caught that "lightthat never was on land or sea,"that 1 heard you reading to Mis3Fin lay about last uight. The skywas tender as her eyes. The sun-shine seemed to have a newbrightness. The world was a newworld to me, and all because Iloved Alice Gracra.
I slw her every day, anjl v.aswith her a great deal. We walk-ed together in the wild, delight-ful $ath that wound about thefeet of the mountains; what wesaid to each other I cannot tell,but I know that these long hoursspent with her in the silence audgrandeur of the old rocks and thetrees, with far above us' the greathills, whose summits seemed topierce heaven itself, were thesweetest hours I ever knew.
The summer went by. and L
did not tell her that I loved her.I could not. Ofe . and often thewords cam to my lips but I cou driot utter them. A wild, foolishtear would strike me dumb.
1 have wondered often, sincethen. -- why I felt as I did, when Itried to tell her the truth. Iiwas not because I was afraid ofher frowning: on my wooing, forI was sure that she loved me. Ihad read it in her eyes,and in thetelltale color which would rise U
her cheeks, sometimes,- - at wordor look of mine. 13 ut, for all 1had nothing- - to fear and every-thing to encourage ins, I was apitiful coward, and theiove I hadto offer was kept to myself.
But I told my self that therewas no use in hurrying matters.I would see her Vy and by, whenthe winter came, and that wouldbe time enough.
The winter came and we metagaiu. I shall never forget thatmeeting any more than I shallforget our. parting. It was at aparty. VI saw her standing apartfrom the crowd, and went towardher. She saw me coming, andher eyes lit upas a morning-glor-y

T came near showing her my heart!would to God I had done i?"'
Iiothermel! I was very near hea-ven the gaits were almost open
but I dared not venture in andtbey will never unclose for meagain. I)on't accuse me- - f talk-
ing sentiment, hi I atnrnot. If3rou ever love a woman , you willfind that her love is to you onearth what heaven will be whenyou are dead. I believe that. Sowill you.
I said that I came near showingher my heart. We were alone.I had been reading some poem toher,' and its story of love had car-ried my heart along on its tide ofpassion, until I felt that it wasmy own story. I shut the bookand turned to her with my heartupcv my lips. Her eyes werestrangely tender with the feelingwhich the pom I had been read-
ing had awakened in her breastShe smiled into n y eyes E touc.bed her hand asj'ou might toucha ro&e and was drrab!
If I had only spoken! Butthfitwildj-curseditea- r was upon meand the happiness of a lifetimeslipped from my, grasp, and was!lost forever.
I did nol see her again formonths. She had gone South tovisit some friends.
But I dreamed of her. in mvda'-dream- es, and laid my plansfor the future, and not one planwa? woven in which she was notthe central thought. SVhen shecame back I would speak ouV Twould dally no longer.
By and by I heard that she hada lover in that Southern citywhere her friends lived. A fearsprung up in my heart.' What jf1 should lose her, after all? Butthe thought that she loved mequieted me.
I waited anxiously for her com-
ing home. She came at lust, audthe told me that she did not comealono. -
I would go to her. I wouldmake my happiness sure.
I went to her. She met mewith a touch of the brightness inher face. Then it grew pale, andI fancied that she was ill at ease.She did not seem like her oldselt. True, I could call the colorto her cheek for a moment, atsome low word of mine, and hereye3 would light up with the oldtenderness, but a switt shadowwould fall and hide it all.
At last I spoke out:"Alice," I said, "I love yon. I
have come t tell you so at last."Her face grew pale as death.
Her eye3 filled with a darkersuahadow.
"Oh, why bare ycu told ntethis now?" she cried. "If youhad only told me this before!"
My heait seemed to slop beat-
ing.- ''..."""You love me!" I cried. "No
thing must come between usAhce."
"There is a promise that lean-n- ot
break between us," she said;and her voice sounded far away:"I am to marry Douglas Leith.
It was then that I realizedwhat I might have had, had it notbeen for my insane tolly. I hadlost her and. God help me! Iloved her so well!"
"I thought you loved me." Isaid, by and by, when I couldcommand my voice.
ilI did! ' --he cried, and burstingto a passion of tears. "But Ithought you could not care verymuch tor me, tor you never toldme that you loved me."
I- - cannot te'l you any moreabout that last interview, Roth-erme- l.
I went away knowingthat the woman T had lost lovedme, and might have been mine ifI had spoken out like a manwhen I ought to have done so.But I had lost her foreeer. Imust go on my way alone, haunt-ed by the memory of what wasand is, and of what may not be.Yon never dreamed I wasa haun-ted man, liothyrmal, but I am.When I see that woman, as wesaw her just uow, vou cannotguess how my heart cries out torwhat it might hrve had, it I hadnot been a coward.
For your own sake and hers, ifvou love a woman, Rothermel,tell her so. Don't shipwreckyour happiness as I have mine.
