IlliS LAST CALL
IT   S.   SELOr.^.
LARGE winier partj in a rambling old honse oa the Thames is uo ilonlit a de- lightfnl thing in the ab- strnct, bat if the parly is not aflnrefiilly Felected one, or thero hap¬ pen to ba wheels within wheels, the conae- qoenoestuajbee.firemelydisai^reeahlo. t-'erbaps Miss Orace FurniTal's feel- icga may be imagined wbpo sbo dis¬ covered that her brother had invited to Walworth Conrt not only tho rich man tu whom aha hal jn^t pnblioly plighted hnr troth, bnt tbe poor man to whom for nearly a yenr she had been secretly engaged.
"Yon don't mean to tuy yon're asked Lnke Maitlnnd!" itasped Orace, on hearing the nnweloome tidioys.
"And why ahonldo't I?" growle.l Tom, aggresairoly; "he's aa guod a ¦ort aa auy fellow I know; tbero nro only three things against him—he's poor, he's high shoaldered, and he is mnoh too fond of yon." ^
"Indeed! and bow do yoa know that laat?"
"Beoanse I met him yesterday and told him about your engagement to old HmithsoD—yon shoald bare soon bim, Orace—I thonght the poor oba)) was going to faiut!. Wbat fouls men are I"
"Whal brnles brothers are!" re- Heoted Orace; tbeo, with a caressing tone the seldom wasted on Torn, "il yoa really think poor Luke is fond ol ma, won't yoa pnt off his visit, dear? It oan hardly be agreeable to him to be here at tbe same time as dear Ed¬ ward. "
"Dear Edward be blowed!" was Tom's Tigorons remark. "Lake is my friend, and ISn not going to in¬ terfere with hiin ; il bo docsu't mind ooming it's uot my concent—it'd bis lookoat."
Orace sighed with an injured martyr •ipresaion and resigned beraslf to tho inevitable. Tbo inevitable was dis¬ agreeable—it nrnally is, but she oould •ee a way ont uf it. She would ber- ¦elt get rid of the iooonvenient Lnke.
Oraoe looked at ber bandsome fekt- nrea in tbe glass, and a certain wise old proverb presented itself obtru¬ sively to ber mind.
"U ia beat to ba off witb Ibo old love before yon are on with tho now," aighed the yonug lady; then, apos-l tropbiziog tbe mirror : "What a fool I've been to get myself into thia mens I I've been very weak not to break with poor Lake before."
Oiace Fnruiral was only one-and- twenty when aba engaged berseif tu "poor Luke"; she faad been Very fond tben of tbe bandiome yonng fellow, bnt tbl^ fondnaaa bad not blinded her pratty eyea to tbe main obanco, and •ho had only promised to marry him on ibe oondition of absolata secrecy.
Lake was a struggling novelist, and if bta straggles eontinaed tu be fruit- IcH snd hia noveU publishless, (iraoo argued, with an acumen tbat did credit to ber head at least, that il would be easier for her to accomplish a brilliaut marriage if sbe wero not hampered by a pnblio engagement to anoh an ineligible as Luke.
Lake Maitland was poor. He hsd more heart than head; he wat. crodti- lons, dreamy, absolutely impractioal; bia views of life were absurdly inipoa sible; be practiced what be preaolioil, and be preached—over tbe heads of bia fallow-men. How oonld snob a man aver bope for sucoess or baDpioesa.
Bach a man as tbis was like wii iu the hands o( (Iraoe Fnrnival.
The gnests arrived lute, and Mies Fnrnival'a toilet was a protracted one. When she e-jterod tbo drawiii< ro.^m Lnke Maitland stopped abruptly in bn I oonversatioo. He htuo.l, white nnd j trembling, hia snukcu evos Axed on j tha glistening white vision advancing toward him. {
Though Orace might feel uncom- | fortable sbo was equal to the occnsiou : | "So pleased to seo yon. Mr. M*it- ; land," •he said. ".Such ages eiuoe wc | met t" I
Dinner was an ordeal fur both Luke and Orscc ; even Tom felt sucumfur- table wheu he saw bin friend's luiaera ble faoe, and wished be had cancelled | bil invitation, while an iustinotire feeling tbat sumcViiug was wrung hang upon tbe spirits u( tbe utber gueata.
When the feast wss unr tho lalii's roae, Lnka Maitland opentug tbo door, i and aa Oraco paaaed him he wbis;ii're.l j in ber ear, under ourer of a sudden quarrel for preocdeuce between Ihe i gueata: I
"I must see yon to night—tell me | wbare and wbeu—" i
"At t)—in the librsry," was (iracc's prompt reply, a.H bhe stoupcl to pick i np ber han.lkrrrhief. '
Luke Maitland waited hall nu hnnr in tbe gloomy, book liue.l ru.mi lielor.' Orace joined biui. Sbe olosed the .loor ' oarefnlly bebiu I her, .irew a ebsir : clcee to the Hie, i.biveriiig mid spreail- ' ing ont her hsnds t.i the .'heerfiil ; blaie, for il waa tbi> 17th uf February , and tbe uight wns bitter;.!- ool.l.
Lake leaned against the innutel)>K'?e | and looked down nt hex, at ber glori- \ ons pile ot ch.'.tuut liair, at li. r tinelr '. cui features and pritiy white haudn. His lips Irerable.l —he coild nu^ trust himself to speak.
"Well," sai.l lirac-e, sUn.-inj up al , bim, "ahal do v ju want to say to me': 1 can't stay here l.'ns.
Lnke steadied bis i-hakiux Ups witb an effort
"1 waul lo know tbe truth—1 wsut lo knuw ll yuu ar.' Mill tiie woman I bave w..r»bi|'e.l or it jouar.' foiiii.- thing else, it ililT. rent lieia„' lo wlial 1 have ever iiuauiDe [ y.iu."

"Ah, Tou reeop(ni/.e it—Ibe band- kerchief yon cmliroiJercd for me only
0 year ngo! It bus lasted longer tban your love." Uo put it curefully back into his pocket.
"Grace," hn soid, fixiug his dark eyes on here with ft wistful look that touched her cold heart, "I inppose ron think I nm taking tbis very easy; the blow hits pirslyzed me—my br»iu aeems stijiined—bnt if it will bo nny consolatiou to yonr vanity to know thiit JOU havo broken my heart aul mined uiy life, tbut consolatiun may be thuroughly your owu."
The young mun'a wor.is were a tritle melo.lrainatic; they reiuiulcil Grace of sucecbos out of his owu novels, and she gave a light littlo langb.
"I hopo yon will eujoy yonr houey- moou," he weut ou ; "yon ueedn't be afraid of my creatiuij distnrbauces and opening Mr. Smithson's eyos—I shall start tu night on a long jouruey—ou a long jouruey," ha repeated, tixiug his eyea on Grace's witb a singular exprea«ion, "bat don't bo nfrnid, yon will see mo ijuito aoon euougli —I aball ofteu retnru nud cftU on your biiebaud; yes, I •hali make a point of returniug," snid Luke, witb n langb. Tbo laugb was auoh sn nucauny ono aud the look on tho youug mau's faee so very strnugo and creepy that Grace lost all seuso of dignity iu tbo terror tbat aeizoJ her and fairly took tu ber heels.
Sbe did not feel safe until sho hnd renched tbe furthest wiug of tbe ram¬ bling house aud eu'conced horself iu tho ifrawiug room near to her brother, who waa playing a gaiuo uf cards witb tbe guests.
Huddeuly ho asko 1:
"Anyboily seen Luko Maitland? Do yon know where ho is, Grace?
"Xo."
"Perhaps he's in bis room. I'll go and aee." Tom returnod iu n fow minutes. "So, he's not there. Where can tho fellow be? He cau't have gone fur ft walk tbis freezing uight, I'll hnnt him ont though-tbo more thc merrier. Ho may be in tbo library, now I think of it-Luke's a regular bookworm." Aud oS weut tbu ener¬ getic yonth.
Tbis timo ho rotnrnod nimost im¬ mediately, ami as ho bur.st iuto tho room all rose in alarm, for it was plain to see that acmutbing had happened. Tom's fooe was white—borriiied, bia hair was standiug creot ou bis hoad, hia mouth faaug open, his wbole framo sbuok.
"Whnt is it?" cried Grace, "Oh, nhat is it ?"
Tom fell into a chair and covered his face with his hands.
"It is too awful! he gasped ; "too horrible!    I'oor Luke I    Ob, ray God!
1 can't forget bis face, Orace shook him almost fiercely. "Why can't you speak plainly,Tom?
Is ho dead ?"
"Dead as a doornail. Bat somebody go and fetch a doctor. Somebody go aud ont him down"—a strong shudder shook him —"I—I oonldn't stop there —I—I Can't look at it again." •
".\nd how—how—?" Grace's dry lips could uot frame the question.
"Hanged bimself," answered Tom, looking up witb borriiied eyes; "hanged bimself behind tbo door with tbo very embroidered handkerchief I saw iu bis hand at dinner to-day—his- iultials in all the corners; expect some woman gave it him. Did you seo bis face, Gould, with the moonlight on it? I shall nevor forgot it,'" gasped Tom— 'tbo hend hau'^ingon ono shoulder, tbe eyes starting out oi tbu blaokoned face, ftud the mouth twisted up iutbut awful grin—"
"Hush," said a friend, qniekly; "bold your tongue, man—yonr slater's fainting!"
Graoii Fnrnival was ft eold and aomo- what beartloi h womau, but Luko Mait- land'e .loath au.l tbe terrible mauner of it was a revere shook to her. Hbo was ill for maby weeks with a kind of nervous fevor, snd wbeu sbe recovered tbe lirst thing sbe did was to pnt off her marriage with E.lward Hmithi-on. She wished lo delay it uutil .Tnly twclro month, but this bor lover would uot bear of —it must be tbnt year or uot at all, and tbo marriage was U'jt delayed.
.-^s tbe "happy pair" drove frora rad.liugtou to Victoria (tbeir honey- nioou was tu b'j spent on tUe lliviera), Graoo noticed th it ber hnsband cast lusuv (glances out of tbe window.
"What is It, E.lwar i?" ehe askod; "what are yon lookiug at? '
"I was only looking to see it tbat fellow it stillfollowiug ns —1 8n)ipo.so be tbinka wo nre going to a private house and wants to help with tbe boxes. He's been nfter us over siutie we left Pailiiingtou,"
Grace loulicd out of Ihe window in her turn.
"I dou't see any oue, I'.dwar.l."
"I ilari's-iT he's biuging on to tbe bnck nf our cab —like b's inipru- deuce! "

Orace sat by the window and looked    lealer tllo.1 th.> youth Francisco floiuci, sin
out across tbe moonlit gar.ions ; it was ft bitterly ool I season at .Monto ;Carlo ; Iho snow lay on the ciound. and lb( wind growled iitlnlly tbrougb Ihe evergreen oaks. Tbere was n lire ir her sitting room, but Grace shivered aud drew her cloak closer around her. Sbe rose aud went to tho table for a book. k littlo calendar was lying there; sho glaueed at it—tho seven¬ teenth of February. It was fhe nuni- vcrsnry of Luke Mftitland's d^atbl Sho shook frum head to fout anJ glaucod furtively over hor shoulder, half expecting to seo somo droadful ' thiug, bnt there was nothing there. | but an nwful feeling of terror was ou [ her. Sbe opened tho door and went ont into tba corridor, thiuking sht would C.1II tho maid ou aomo pretext. In the room opposite her own there were loud talk and laughter nud the lively popping of corks. Tbe soiinde reassured ber; ahe felt less eut ofl from humanity and half ashamed of her fears—abe would go book ngaiu. She pushed open tbo door, bnt it re¬ sisted and felt oorionsly heavy undei her trembling bund ; its action scomei: impeded by some heavy weight. Shi opened it, however, and it swung back bohiud her, closing loudly under tbt suddeu impetus. Somo dark object wns haugiug on tbe door ; with a bean thot had almost stjppcd beating, Grace stood nnd looked. It was « dark, dimly-seen ligure, the heao hanging over upou onu thouldcr; 1 faint ray of moonlight touched thi ' face—it wai tho face of a dead man. A nhilobandkcrohief wus tightened an j der tho blackened Ibroat, tho oyei | started forward in a blind, glassy stare, Ihe month was twisted in a ghastly griu.

18. "For surely there I* an ond, or reward, nnd thiuo expoctatlou shall not bo cut off.' Hoo ttils ropeatet In ehapt.'r xxiv., 14, and add Jer; mix., II, "I kuow tlm thoughts I think toward ynu," sstlh t*e ]jord« "tboughtlof p?ao. nnd u.)t of evil, to giva you nil end nnd expoctatlou." The expeota* tionof tho return ot Ohrist, nud the right¬ eousness that sball then be s-'on, tho wrongs that shall be righted, nnd tbo glory ihit sball bo roviMled, Is tho most heliitul tratli whiob I as ft rcleemed soul bavu over sten. Do not tho words "on.I," "roward," "ex- pootatlon," nil point t.i Hi' Well bas It beea written,  "Ho that hath  Iht-i hopo In Him,
Jurllletb hlmsolf evou lu Hu Is puna" (t ohn III., 9).
19. "Hoar thou, my snn, and hs wise, and guide thine benrt in the way." Our Lor<f said, "Bowlsofts sorpeuls nnd harmless as doves" (Math. X., 16). Anl iu Jo*. Ill,, IT, wo road of tbo ualuro of true wisdom, that It Is "Ilrsl pure, then poaoeablo, gonllo and easy to I... entreated, full ot mercy aud good IrulLs, wilhout partiality, and without hy- poerlsy." Surely this Is none olher thaa Ohrlst Himself, nnd as to tbe way, there Is none bul IIo. IIo is wisdom, and llo is Ibe wny, and i;hrist In us is tho hope ol glory, the Klorv whloh reetillos our llfo beru and purities Iroiu all unelenniioss.
20. "ill .not among wino bibbers; amoof riotous oaters ot llosh." This sortofthln|C belongs to tho wisdom of earth, wblob la sousual and duvlllsh (Jas. III., 15). Tha king¬ dom ot Ood Is uot meat unt drink, bnt rlgliteouinosa and peace nud Joy In tbe Holy Ghost (Bom. xvl., 17). The word for the be¬ liever la "Be nnt drunk with wine, but ba mind with the Spirit" (F.ph. v., 18). Anr luethod ot letorm short of that whloh looks to a new heart, a new (uuntam wltbln, will prove ubavalllug. Tho old nature Is luoar- nhly corrupt in the sight of Ood (IIDm. TlU.: 7), and though II mny bo mado moral ana suiiiewh.at toiunorato. It novor onu enter the kingdom. Only tbat which Is born from above cftu enter (Jobn III., 3, margin).
31. "For thn drunkard nud the gluttoik sball oome to poverty, nud drowsiness shall elotbo n man with rags. ' Whatever may linoomo of tbo drunkard as to tills life It it writteu that druukards unnnot Inherit tb* kingdom (ICor. vb, 10). As to thu gluttoa bo wns, iiccordlng to law, to bo stouod wttb stones (Usui, xxi., 20, 81).
23. "Hearken unto thy fnthor Ihat begat tbee nnd dosplso not Ihy motbor wheu she ll old." Ouo wonld think suoli oomniandi _ wh.illv uunae.'B.snry If w.i di.l not know tba wickedness ol tliu human heart, but Ood, who knows tho lionrt, hna wrtlten It. I<et ouoh ono nsk bimself.
