(By Special Arrangement—Copyright.) ART FOR ART'S SAKE By MADGE S. SMITH. I You are a quixotic fool, Catherine! I have no patience with you!" Catherine turned over the much-darned stocking which she was men-ding before answering. And if I am, Uncle Henry, what is that to you ?" She spoke calmly, but the gleam in her dark eye told that her patience also was coming to an end. Uncle Henry rose to end the conversation. Very well; I have no wish to influence you. 11 only ask you to consider that your time may be fully occupied with paying pupils, and to ask yourself whether a penniless girl such as you can afford to give music-lessons gratis. What is Har,tl-and's lad to you?" Uncle Henry left the room with dignity, and Catherine stirred the email fire into a fitful blaze, and held, out her cold fingers to its wa-rmth. She might have been remarkably pretty in a quiet way, one would have said, had it not bee-n for the hard lines that care had traced 1 with, remorseless hand on the soft brows and chin. An obstinate little face it was, too, with strong will in the firm chin and wide mouth. Under a wave of chestnut hair, her dark eyee caught back the gleam of the fire. There was a touch of defiance in her attitude as she recklessly stirred the dying embers. Catherine Carlyone life was not a gay one. The joys of home-life, the love of a mother, had never been hers but for a, few short years. She was still a. child when unkind fate sent her, an undowered orphan, to make the seventh and eldest of Uncle Henry's struggling family. Uncle Henry was very hard up. Hie wife. a fretful invalid, had greatly bewailed the extra, care and expense of the motherless child. Catherine, a sensitive, highly-strung girl, had grown up under the impression that ehe waa a burden and a nuisance to her harassed uncle and aunt. Xow, however, matters were altered. Catherine was a girl of ardently musical temperament; from her childhood, her hardly-begged music-lessons had been the solace of an uncongenial life; now that she was older, they proved no poor investment. The weekly sum whica she earned by teach- ing music was very acceptable, and Uncle Henry prided himself on his foresight in indulging the girl's musical bent. That there were in her capacities for greater things, musical ability above the teaching of the common routine, was a point of view that never occurred to Uncle Henry. A plain, ordinary little music-teacher, Catherine appeared to Uncle Henry and the world at large. Few guessed that she had an end always in view, although at times sadly far off. A musical career! For this she was secretly saving the small allowance left from her weekly earnings, with this aim she practised long and assiduously in the cold, winter mornings. With this in mind. pgor tc-, frequently recurring birthdays were a source of bitter annoyance to her, as each one found her further and further from her cherished aim. So Catherine knitted her brows, as she sat before the smouldering fire. "Ars longa, vita brevie! And I am three and twenty. I haven't it in me, I think; there is something wanting. But at leaet-at leastr-I can do something-ajid this t-oy-if I am not vastly mistaken in him—will do great things, "-she sighed a. little-" f-ar greater than ever I could hope to achieve'" Mies Carlyon?" The boyish voice roused her from her reverie. Come in, Bernard. I was expect- ing you. A tall lad of some sixteen or seventeen years entered with violin case in hand, bow- ing his close-cropped, dark head under the gas-bracket "You are Too kind, Mias Carlyon. But for l™' my music would have to go by the board entirely. I can new repay you for this!" Repay OJ Catherine smiled. "It is pleasure in itself, my dear boy. And you know how you can more than repay me!" How?" The large doggish eyes looked questioningly into hers. "By doing me credit—doing yourself justice. Bernard, you will, you must make a great name for yourself." Bernard Hartland hung his head, blushing hotly, partly from nervousness, partly from the pleasure the words caused. "If only I could; but you see how things stand with me. My father wishes me to take my place in his office. I cannot run counter to his wishes. You see, he will not hear of a musical career for me; and then-he cannot afford. That's at the bottom of it, rosilly?" I know." Then what can I do ?" "Bernard, do you love your music? The boy blushed again. Yes, indeed, Miss Carlyon!" "Better than yourself-better than anything you possess—enough to give up ease and pleasure and wealth for it?" "I do," he replied, with lip quivering. And only the lack of money can keep you from it ? Bernard, can you humble your pride for art's sake:" I don't understand." Don't refuse me. It would be the greatest pleasure of my life. You have great talent, Bernard. You know it!" The boy gave mystified assent. I thought I had once," Catherine con- tinued with an effort. I could not let it expand. I was tied for money—cramped by circumstances, as you are. And I, like you, thought to be able- when I was older, to give myself the opportunity. But now that I might, I am no longer fit for it-I feel that it has gone from me!" I'm sorry—I'm awfully sorry!" the boy stammered, puzzled. I wish I could help you. Miss Carlyon." "You can! I have a little money—saved when I hoped to take my place myself. Bernard, let me help you-go and make a name for yourself in my stead." The boy's eyes gleamed through a mist. You mean-" I mean that you are to go to London, have the teaching you need. I will pay. It must be done at all costs." "I can't! You are awfully good; but I can't be such a cad for anything." "Not for your art?" There was a word of reproach in her voice. You will not humble your pride for your art's sake?" The boy held out both hands. Yes," he said, I will do it, even that—for your sake, Miss Carlyon!" So they settled it, An interview with the boy's father had better results than either Catherine or her pupil had dared to hope for. The old man consented to bear half the lad's expenses, won over by her promise of the glorious future in store for him. Henceforth, the daily drudgery of Catherine Carlyon's life was to assume a new aspect. "I am doing my part," she would think. I am making a master. I have not wasted my talent; I am enabling another to do what I couldn't do myself!" And Bernard's parting words rang in her ears: e I will repay you! God helping me, I will do good work!" It; Five years later! A long time to think of, but it found little difference in Catherine. She sat as usual with her uncle and aunt in the shabby parlour, little shabbier for the years that had flown. My boy, my poor boy." Aunt Louisa rocked to and fro, incessantly repeating the weary formula. "He is mined, my poor Turn! We are helpless! We can do nothing!" The letter which Catherine returned silently to her aunt, told its own bitter tale. It came from scapegrace Tom, t he apple of Uncle Henry s eye. and the clever boy of the family, now a clerk in a Liverpool bank. Send me the money, £100. by return, or it I is all up with me," he wrote piteously. "I didn't sDeal it. I only borrowed. I thought I missed, but, of course, nobody would believe me. You must get it from somewhere; Catherine has some money, get it from her." Poor Tom!" said Aunt Louisa. It is his own fault," commented Catherine* severely gentle. To-morrow will be too late. There is no chance for us! Unless Aunt Louisa paused significantly. "Unless what?" Uncle Henry asked, sharply. "You, Catherine, you have some money," the distressed mother made her last plea; I know you have; I saw your bank-book. You. can save my boy." Catherine gazed stonily at the fire. I cannot-I would gladly give it if I had it, but-" You will not—oh! you must, yon must, to save my boy. Catherine. you owe everything to us; it is your plain duty; I command yon, I beg of you-" I "I cannot; you are mistaken. I have no money." "It is a lie. You had over £ 100!" Calm yourself, my dear," Uncle Henry interposed, dignified as ever. Miss Cajlyon refuses her aid; there is no more to be said." Catherine felt her cheeks crimson at the imputation- I haven't it. You know I would do any- thing to help you!" A torrent of hysterical abuse drove her from the room. Alone in her own room. thought was free. She was powerless to help the boy, whom, after all, scamp as he was, she loved as a brother. She could not eat her cake and have it. Young Bernard Hartland's musical training had long since swallowed up the accumulated savings of years. But there—it was gone; it WCLS no use wishing it back. "And I don't wish it back, she said, vehemently. She also had a letter from her boy, Bernard Hartland, unopened in her pocket. She drew it out now as a solace. Little could the young musician guess what solace and comfort hi& boyish letters brought to the lonely teacher. "I don't care!" Catherine said. "Tom is a dolt; my boy is a credit to me!" It was no exaggeration. In a few years training Bernard had indeed made rapid progress. His name was becoming well- known, and was a guarantee of large audiences when it appeared on concert bills. He was justifying her expectations; Catherine was more than contented with him. I am playing in Liverpool this week," he wrote, "then I am coming on to see you." Catherine started. Bernard was in Liver- pool then, where poor Tom was on the verge of disgrace and ruin. Again her pupil's words rang in her ears: "I will repay you!" There is time yet." said Catherine, after she had sat for some minutes in thought; there is just time. Bernard will do it for my sake!" Her face was very white, as she began to write to the boy. 1 ou promised once that you would repay me," she wrote; if you can, will you do it now. I refused it before: now I beg it of you. She knew that he would do it. No shadow of doubt crossed her mind. Bernard was now in easy circumstances; he had indeed mentioned that he had saved quite a nirm sum for certain private purpores." His private purposes must wait," she said grimly, and sealed the letter with determinaw tion. Now," said Catherine, a dull pain at her heart, "my boy will pay me back; I shall have no more part in him. Well, I did what was needed. I made him what he is; it is nothing but selfishness on my part to keep up the obligation. But oh! my dear boy! I never thought to ask for the money bacld God knows I gave it gladly." To scapegrace Tom she wrote a curt note. Go to Bernard Hartland, at St. George's- hall. He will help you, for my sake." Catherine was haggard when she joined the family, but she smiled rather wearily as she kissed her aunt's tearful face. It is all right. Aunt," she said kindly. Tom shall have the money." The few days that followed were ones of sore trial to Tom's paranta. Catherine waited with more equanimity. She knew of a certainty her protege would not fail her. When Tom's letter came, all doubts were set, at rest. Hartland is a brick," the lad wrote, he stumped up in a minute, and doesn't want it back. I am saved out of a nice bole, and shall be more careful in future. Haitiand seems awfully well-off, and he is younger than me. I wish I was one of those clever chaqxs. They have jolly easy times, and good pay.. while a poor beggar like me F-ugh!" Catherine shook the letter angrily—"a graceless young cur!" And Bernard was coming! WelL it would be nice to see the boy again, to see him grown, losing his boyish ways for manly aaea. telling his tales of travel and experience, but alas! never to see him again with that giad feeling of proprietorship which she used to know. I daresay it is best," she told herself. "Hie boy felt the humiliation of it. How should one of the best musicians of the day like to feel under an obligation to a poor teacher? He will think kindly of me, I know." And day by day, Catherine felt the sunlight and joy fading from her quiet life. I had something to live for before," she said sadly, it was as if I had my own career in Bernard's; and now I have nothing; I have sold it!" She was sitting in the shabby parlour alone with her own sad thoughts. Bernard!" She had meant to greet him more calmly; less like a mother, welcoming her loved son; but he bad come on her so suddenly. I've been running like anything," said the boy; I came straight from the station. I thought I'd catch you before yon went to the organ recital. I couldn't wait till to- morrow. The recital] oh, no, I am not going. I had forgotten it, in fact." Forgotten! that's something fresh. isn't it? Well, I'm glad, anyway." "I want to thank you, Bernard. I can never thank you enough—for what you did for Tom—for me!" Bernard looked up suddenly. Don't talk about that," be said, ""it dm nothing!" You are a kind boy, Bernard. I'm not a boy now, Miss Cariyoa. Whyaaw you so funny with me? You riont seem the same, somehow!" "In what way am I changed?" She knew she needed no answer. U YOU-you don't seem as if yon. cared. Haven't I done my best? bzVOLft I fulfilled your expectations—as I promised I wot"?" You have, indeed. Bernard- And now yarn have paid me back, like an honourable man, in my hour of need." "Paid you back!" The lad started to Jù8 feet. P-aid back, with a few paltry pooads. the loving kindness that has given me a career. I didn't think you looked at no iu that 4ight. Miss Carlyon!" I gave you the money freely for art's sake. It was wail invested, as it proved-" "And you don't care! You talk coldly about art; what did I care for art? You think me a boy. I am a man, I tell you—a man. All these years I have had one thing in my mind. to do you credit, to fulfil the hopes you had in me. I have made it my aim to be able to ask you to be my wife; and now yoa don't want! I was saving for that, but I didn't mind putting even that off to help you, and you don't care!" You talk like a boy, Bernard. When you are as old as me-" "A boy; must I be always a boy to you? Are you going to let a few years oome between. us for ever. I thought it was me you cared for-not this eternal art! For art's sake, indeed! It was for your sake. Catherine, can't you understand? I'm asking you to marry me!" And, somehow, after that, there was nothing more to be said. (The End). TO-MORROWS TALE —" A WEDUESG GIFT," by OSBORN ADAIR.
