As they went up the aisle hand in hand the crowd stood and cheered
again and again; the magistrate did not touch his gavel--he was nodding
vigorous approval. Hilda held Otto's hand more closely and looked all

Thus the shadow of Mr. Feuerstein--of vanity and false emotion, of pose
and pretense, passed from her life. Straight and serene before her lay
the pathway of "work and love and home."
