With a fond good night he left her. and
was soon in the churchyard. which led on
the other side, into a narrow lane which.
after insny windings and tnrniuga. led into
the main street of the village.

l‘t was a dark. cold night in the litter part
of October. Through the day heavy banks
of black clouds had rolled seem the sky

A sharp. cutting wind had accompanied
this approaching storm. compelling all trav7

closely about their bodies in order to rush»

o‘ehek in the afternoon an impermeable
gloom and darkness had settled upon the
land. and with it earns sudden dashes of
rain. The otuntry roads of Brookville
were soon In a miserable condition. rnttd
and pools of water were everywhere
throughout the lanes. [beer was the pro»
peet in every direction; themes and bushes
that lined the road were bowed before the
storm king. lurk Lee. wtth his cloak
drawn tightly around his shoulders atrttg7
gled through the church yard. Could the
darkness have been penetrated he would
have seen the rnoascovered. time-honored
grave stones. which marked the spot where
many of the country folk were sleeping.
The uncoutlily-sculptured stones stood at
all angles. and nearly all of thelittle mounds
were o‘er grown with brlers and thorns. so
that. to a casual observer. the place seemed
nothing but a tangled mass of undergrowth.
The old churchyard had fallen sadly to tie
cay ; and many of the graves hid so sunken
that quite a hole was made in the ground in
which the rain Collected. ' A stranger pass-
ing this way on such a night as this would
have thundered about at the mercy of the
storm. but Math kept steadily on avoiding
all sunken plsccs and all fallen tomb-stones
and at last reached the narrow lane that
would take him to his garden gate. ' He
came this way to escape the mud of the
main road. and also because it was a short
cut across the country.

This narrow. dark lane into which be en—
tered was known by the name oft‘ut Throat
lane. because many. many years ago an un7
known man had been found lying beneath
the thick bushes and tall trees with a hor-
ribtegash across his throat. Many other

this lane. but as these were vague and very

a delightfutty'ahady spot. and the spreading
branches of the trees eanopyim: t‘ green

turn aside and meditate. The cluster

ninestrrs wathled their early Instins and re»

dal party. and the solemn funeral procession
both entered the churchyard through this
narrow lane. In this lane the romantic It“‘~
ers of Barons-tile made their trystlnn place.
and whisperml rows of eternal affoeti'In.

But on this wild autu'nn ninht. with the
high wind and terribly dark sky it required
a man of nerve and determination to en
t7 r it.

—As Mark ptoddal on with his thoughts full
of her whom he loved and whom he had
just left. from some unaccountable cause the
ancient legend of the murdered man sprang
into his memory. So suddenly had the
thought come to him. that he hesitated a
moment ere he proceeded any further. But
a second caused him to dash the thought
from his mind. as an old woman's tale to
fripbtrm children. and he marched on.

Although the thought had appnrently dc-
serted hint. still its presence made a deep
impermion. on him and he trembled. If
anything should happen now tha‘. his hap-
pines seemed almost complete what should

she was not yet his wife. and a secret ‘feel7

thought and feeling. brings it to pass oftener
than most peoplesnppnss.“ he had said to
Linaie. and had henot wished that the might
be free to become his wife? Sr strong had
been his feelings on this mitter that he had
almost wished that his brother Walter might
be dead and never more return. There was
every probability of his being dead. but no
positive proof of it. and hlsrk was strangely
agitated on this night as he staggered from
side to side along the Cut Throat Lsne.

Unfortunately for the Sunday Schools.
there are a.number of middle-aged gentle
men. who. thlnking themselves endowed by
mint! with oratorical ability. visit Sunday
Schools to display their speech-making qtt7l7
tties. These gentlemen are very properly
termed Sunday School bores. for they burn
the children. bore the Superintendent. bore
the teachers. and born every person with
whom they are thrown in cont Iet.

One of these gentry had a round of four
or tlve schools which he visited regularly.
and as regularly bored. ending his oration-
‘Invarlably with “ Amen! “

Visiting one of the schools during his
regular rouilna. he made his appearance at
the Superintendent‘s desk. who, feeling
greatly annoyed. ya out of courtesy. asked
him if he desired to say a few wor is to the
school

that his wife. who was preparing breakfast.
had not spoken t 7 him when she gst up. and
so he cheerfully said :

“ Good morning. rnv little ltdy.“

Not a word came in reply.

“ Good morning.“ said he agtin. in a
higher key. thinking that she might not have
heard him before.

from her sealed lips as she kept on with the
work.

and he sent to Woonsocket for a gallon of

The rum came by return of the express:
but while he was paving for the anme.some
