Wall et t'le giew veiy uneasy about their money, hired they said would tell at last. Hut Mr. Kreyteau was obstinate In his likings; he would not recall the i|*d. All they could do was to send Hi" young Wall to look him up now ■mil (hen, and to take a rigid account "l his receipts. It uevel occurred to Louie Noel Hut he was suspected. Nothing 'liorl of a blow on the fa;M* would ' llvlnce that careless fellow that oiybody was tiis enemy. He made In- heodiiuarters at the lonely vil- -o ' of Tadousac for a reason, and he 'iH'poaed tlie same reason brought lames Walt there. The two men, one August after- ifinoon. met tu the orchard of an " i firntlon behind the village. The ’"id was frosty, and Noel brought a ' urh out from under the trees Into "pen sunshine fora young girl win. was with them, .laiuee Wall ■"I I n n upon it beside tier, crossed 'lout logs comfortably, drew out 4 'Juebeo paper, and looked at the " latlons lu lumber. Noel walked ■"'ay. He could not come near Hes- • ■ Cage to-day. 8he had dropped a ' liter two to him last night—a -re nothing when one repeated it, i bright blush, very different from the cool, '•"Uised criticism with whloh she '■ad met him heretofore. He had re- ; "ated the words a thousand times to himself to-day. Could It be? He could not speak to her before hull. He felt as If he must cry oot " ih this sudden madness of hope H'»t seemed to send the blood hiroiigij hla Itody like flame. He 'iin lered about Irresolutely, climbed 4 free for some russet pears for her, plaeentsnd Intimate with Mias Page. Were they not both Americans? The Noeland all unfortunate foriguera belong to the great Ultima Thule outside of the States. She smiled, looked deliberately at Louis, then at Wall, then down to the pale blue weh she was netting. YVuat with her deliberation, the pale blue net the creamy gown lltting close toiler neat, rounded figure, and her lustre- le«H brown hair and eyes, she made a centre of calm, of delicate color, which suited the faded hue of the autumnal day. Mr. Wall scanned her over his paper, pursing his thick lips with gusto. He had been calcu lating her merits and’defects fora long time hut his mind was made u| True, she had no money to pay her share of the hoard hills, nor brilliant beauty to push them on socially in Monireal. But some lndeflnably la tent power in the faint colored, calm little woman had conquered him. As much of the man as was not given up to the lumber Interest or to wor ship of James Wall wasgenuiriely in love with her. He was a poor man, greedy of money, yet he meant to marry this pennilesss Raptist minis ter’s daughter. Why not tell her so at once? “Noel!” be called; “here, Noel!” (It was just as well to let her know their relative positions, and that this scampish fellow, whose infatuation for her was the talk of the village was only the paid servant to the firm) “! wish you to finish that report. 1 start for home to-night. By the way I will lake all your collections with me.” Noel did not move. “D'ye hear? Hee lo it at once.” .1 list then the notes of a French horn filled the air with a melancholy sobbing. Louis gave a quick nod of satisfaction. That was his father; he always knew that the old man was happy as long as he was filling the world with bis melodious piping. Home young fellows, his comrades, on the pier, caught sight of Noel. “Hi! lit! Louis?” they called, lie shouted hack, waving his hat to Piere Matthleu, who laughed and nodded. Two Misters of Mercy, pa cing decorously In their black rotiet to the church, glanced furtively up and smiled at each other. The whole village knew and liked the merry fellow and the old father of whom he was so fond. The gate clicked. Wall, tired of waiting on him had gone angrily away. “Thanks to God!" chuckled Noel. He hurried toward Healer, then sl<q petl short In a spasm of shame. Who was he? To go to her to ask her to give herself to him? The first man in the world was not fit to touch her Look at her Hilling there, the sun shining full on hei! Her hands went with their work, iu and out, in and out. The monotony of motion mail dcued him. For two years he hud followed her faithful as a dog. It had been almost enough to see her, lo hear her speak now aud then. If he (old her now that he loved her he would risk all this; she would drive him sway. Never to sse Heater again? Never! If she married Wall! For a moment he could uot get his breath—the world gaped empty about him. Then bis blood swelled with sud den triumph. Why, he was not a child; he was a man, and that was the dear woman that he loved! He went to her, leaping over a fallen tree, and threw himself breathless, on the grass. Hester, amused, look i down at his sensitive face and burning eyes. “I heard you singing. Monsieur Noel,” she Haid after awhile. “Oh, did you like my voice?” ea gerly. “My father does. 1 don’tknow. lie is a musician. Perhaps—would yon like me to sing to you now?” “No,” Hester smiled. “You—you can talk to me Instead,” she added shyly. Noel did notanswer. He rose slow ly, and leaning against a tree looked steadily down into her face. Hhe saw how lie trembled though she did not raise her eyes. The very wind was still. A cricket chirping In the Htuhlde counted off the long minutes; far away swelled anil sank the low chaining In the church. Hester’s finger’s still went In and out of that wearisome net, hut they shook now; she could not see her work. It seem ed to her as If all had been already said between them. "Hester,” he broke out. at last, "you must have known It this long time. I suppose It seems mad folly to you. I know! I’m only Louis Noel. I’m a headlong good-for- nothing fellow. But—” He caught her baud and stroked It passionately In Ills cold fingers. Htv.tcrglanced up at the passion windows. Hhe did not lorget to he decorous. “No! Don’t apeak yet!” he cried. “Don't send me away yet! I know the Americans* think me flighty—a vaurlen. But 1 can work. I can make von such a happy home here In Tadousac. I know you like Ta- doussc. Oh, I know all your whims and fancies! I’m a weak little fellow; but I love you so that I could keep trouble away from you as if I were God.” Hester look at him thoughtfully. She had known for a year that each of theee two men would ask her to be his wife, and she knew precisely what answer she would give them, but she was not going to be hurried out of her orderly course. Louis drew back. “You will not take my love?” His sudden pallor, his relaxed fea tures annoyed her. What was the use after all of such wearisome trag le emotions? “I will see you again,” she said coldly; “weave not alone now. Mr. Wall—” Wall stood within the gate. Noel turned aud Joined him without a word. As the men went out togeth er, a branch of woodbine struck against one of their faces. Miss Page, when she was alone broke it off Hint shyU' put it to lier lips with a “Bring the report and money here,” said Wail when they reached the house. "The money,” stammered Noel; “it is iu a sealed package. Is it nec essary to count it?” Noel’s suppressed excitement as he left Hester had startled Wall. He eyed hla dazed face now with sud den suspicion. “Bring me that money,” he said sharply. Louis ran up to his chamber. There were steps overhead and then a pause. Ten minutes, half au hour le:t (hem lying ou the grass, I passed. Then the door opened and smoked furiously , ue stood In it. He looked shrunken silted a cigar, ’ I let It goout in ills mouth, then •sKn to slug with a tremendous dis- "rdant olatter. •lr. Wall shuddered, then laughed, '"passionately glancing at Miss "ge. They were both admirable ""■details, aud often sang together ■' tli that aoouracy and nearness of 'tbs-t which peculiarly marked the 1 ‘f'L .nd movements of both. Iiiese Canadians are restless in , *y aud mind as grasshoppers.” 'muts Wall’s thick tones grew com- and years older liiau when lie went Wall,” lie Gone? What do “The money is gone said. “The money? you meau?” “The package. I sealed it yester day. I locked it In my desk.” “And It is gone?” Noel sank on a chair nearthedoor. Wall ;vent up to him. He was a powerfully built man. and be tower ed over Louis, who was but a puny young fellow. “Bring .me that money,” he said. Noel pushed him away steadily. "Keep your hands off me. I must think—this means more to me than to you.” Wall drew hack. There was a mo ment’s silence. "It means ruin to you. Look at me, Noel. This will not surprise the firm. They have long suspected you. You cannot pass it off as an accident. Now lis ten. If that money is not in my hands within an hour I must return to Montreal to-night and make all known. Even if Freytau will not consent to your arrest you will he dis charged.’' He lowered his voice. “Miss I’age will not he likely to mar ry a penniless vagabond and a thief.” “What of Miss Page?” said a .clear voice behind him. Louis stood up. Wall turned and faced her, a slow heat of triumph rising iu his heavy jaws and half shut blue eyes. There had been some softening of pity in his tone just now but now be remembered that this man was his rival, aud was in his power. James Wall was not the man to delay using that power for one remorseful moment. “Monsieur Noel is In a difficulty," he said, gravely looking down and rubbing his well kept nails as though in embarrassment. “His return to the firm—there is a deficiency of sev eral thousand pounds.” Hester went quckly up to Noel There was something wholesomeand Invigorating in her decisive step, iu the keen, common sense lighting her brown eyes. “You can set this aright, of course?” she said. “I have not spent the money. It was in my desk yesterday.” Hhe looked at him a moment, then for the first time iu her life laid her hand upon his arm. “Monsieur Noel, you are not your self. You have been robbed! Why do you stand here? Why do you not make search; arrest the servants?” Noel avoided tier eye. “I will not do that,” lie said. "They did not take it.” “Helloes not inideistan:! of what you accuse him,” she said impatient ly to Wall, wlio laughed contemptu ously. “I do understand. I will search for his money tgain.” He turned to Wall: “The boat will not he in for half an hour. Give me that time.” The stupor was shaken off. Home - thing of his usual awkward gusty vehemence was in his manner as lit went out. But when Wall said, “he knows he will not bring the money hack,” Miss Page secretly felt thut he was right. Hhe took up her net ting and seated herself by the win dow. “We will wait here until the hour is over,” she said quietly, and Wall recognized himself as a prisoner. A stronger will than liis lias been re solved on justice to Noel. He could not go oiii as lie had intended to pub lish the theft in Tadousac. “Unfortunately,” lie said, suspi cion had been directed against tills young man for some time. A charm ing follow, too. A thousand pities!” Hester's fingers steadily went in and out of the blue web, but she re mained silent. Noel oil the upper floor halted at the door of a chamber next his own. Within the French horn sounded a wailing cry. He stood a minute, drew a long breath of gathered strength and went oil smiling. M Noel seated by the window rose I nick ly to meet him, laying down the Instrument carefully. He wore a velvet jacket and cap on his white hair. Noel took as much frond pride in devising picturesque costumes for his father as a wouiau would for her itally. His features were sensitive aud fine as those of Louis, Imt the eyes were shallow and glassy and there was a perpetual deprecating smile ou the mouth. Is it time for our walk, my son?” he said, speaking the pure French of the old families of (Que bec. Louis witli the smile still oil his face placed a ciiair. "We will talk a little first father ” Hiandiug be hind him, his hand on his shoulders, lie glanced at the clock. Not an Hour! Yet if lie frightened the old man he could discover nothing. He talked of indifferent matters, and then said: How did you amuse yourself to- lay, sir?” With my music, Louis, and 1 strolled across the mountains.” With these also?” taking from a drawer a pack of greasy cards. M. Noel started up pule and trembling as a guilty child. They are not mine. They were lent to me. I only play a little game of soltaire.” Why, assuredly! Do you ever wager with yourself, sir? One hand against the other?” ‘Why, I never tried that!” chuck ling delighted. "I wager with Jacques when we play. A trifle— hah!” And the money to play with ? You hide as you used to do— here—there—where Jacques cannot find it?” Mr. Noel nodded complacently. Trust me for that. Nobody will ever find it. “Why there are places among the rocks—” Louis looked out at the vast stretch of mountain ledges over which tlie fattier iiad wandered that day. The locked ticked faster. “Father,” he said, coining in fronj of him. My son! Who has hurt you?” The geutle face was full of wild ter ror. “What have they done to you? You never looked like that iu your life, Louis.” "Never mind. It’s all right, fatti er, all rigut,” kneeling down before bint and soothing him. He thought if lie told him the truth surely God would waken some spark of intelli gence iu the poor dead brain to help him. The hour was nearly over. His strait was desperate. “There was some money in a pack age iu my desk, fattier. It is gone. Do you know where it is?” The tenderness faded out of the blue eyes. They grew by turns perplex ed, vacant, then cunning. "Ah, Louis! You want to find out my hiding place to store your mouey; Va! Va! We old people have our little secrets, eh?” clucking with Ills tongue. Noel started up. “Oh, for God’s sake. You are my father! Be a mail again. Gome baek this once to save me!” A shadow of comprehension strug gled into the vacant face, like life galvanized into a corpse. Then it slowly died out. “You frighten me," he cried. “I did not see the money.” Louis was no fool. He saw how lie could shelter himself by leaving the crime where it undoubtedly belonged. It would probably lie condoned as the act of au imbecile. Withashud- der he threw his arms around the old man and reverently kissed tiie gray head. “Do not lie frightened, father,” he said, gently, “nothing shall harm you.” A'moment later Hester, hearing his firm steps without, arose. “Has he the money?” she said. Wall also arose. "You have found it ?”• “No.” Noel, all of his life vehement and passionate, stood now quiet and res olute, while Wall swaggered uncer tainly. “You know the consequences, No el? You are accountable. I can do nothing for you. I shall telegraph the firm from Quebec and return to morrow.” “The money,” said Louis, slowly “may lie forthcoming by that time." “Ho late a repentance will hardly save yon,” sneered Wall. "If it were not for Freyteau I would order your arrest at once.” He turned irresolutely to Miss I’age, bowed, and without speaking left the room going immediately down to tiie little steamer which lay at Hie pier. Hester went to Louis. “You do not defend yourself,” she said with u queer choking iu tier voice. “No.” “You did not even say that you are not guilty?” Their eyes met. There was a long silence. Noel put his hand up to his mouth uncertainly. “I can say nothing.” He turned away. She stood still, tier clear eyes fol lowing him, her unconscious fingers tearing the web she had netted bit by bit. It fell in a heap on tiie floor. Hhe came to his side with a little rush as Pere Mutthieil entered the room. “I will speak for you then,” slidin her hand into his arm. “All, father, congratulate us! I have accepted Monsieur Noel. 1 must announce our betrothal. It is our custom in t he slates. The good fatiier was shocked at her want of decorum. Her cheeks burn ed, her eyes shone with soft lirillian cy. "Come, come! We may yet be in time to tell the news toour friend James Wall. It will cheer linn on Ins voyage.” Hhe almont dragged Louis down to the garden which overlooked the pier, ou which a little crowd hud gathered. He held tier bark. “You shall not blast your lift-for me? Why do you do this?" “Because i love you," she sobbed. At that instant Wall, stepping from ft little bateau on to Hie deck of tiie steamer, looked lip. He saw her clinging to Noel’s arm, started and hastily drew bark; (lie bateau rocked, overturned, aud Wall with the In dian boatman was struggling in Hie water. The Indian, who swam like a fish, easily gained tiie land, Hut Wall was wastied a helpless lump under the steamer, and then drifted down into tiie black resistless cur rent of Kaguenay. Hester was a gentle creature, Imt she certainly did remember at that moment (hat the man was tiie only witness against Noel. On tiie con trary, Louis in an inslanl was his old self, frantic with excitement, shouting, kicking ott his hoots. Where are you going?” she said sharply. ‘Why, Wall cannot swim,” lie cried, plunging into Hie rushing flood. Both men disappeared in tiie night. The whole village gathered on tiie pier, crying, swearing, lalk- ingatouee. Pere Matlhieu ordered mil boats and went in one himself, which presently broughl both men ashore. Louis was conscious and staggered to his feet. They laid Wall’s heavy body under the trees and stood about ii with their lan terns, while Pere Malthieu drew oil liis coat and put his ear to his breast. He is alive,” tie said “Dariy him—” But Hester’s keen eyes saw what no one else did. Hhe swooped down on the prostrate body like a white bird on its prey. "Slop!" site cried wildly, drawing something from liis breast. "Take witness all of you that I take this from him.” it was a package marked “Louis Noel, 000.” "Oh, Louis, Louis!” Noel put liis arm around tier and led her away. Her passionate inve filled him witli such a new keen joy, that lit did not fully understand the meaning of what had happened. When lie did lie only said humbly: “Then I wronged father. God for give me! Let us go to him, Hester.” He was eager to tell him that Hie American girl of whom the old man was so fond, had promised to stay with them in Todousae and lie ins wife. Here surely was heaven open ed. When James Wall, clothed and in his light mind, entered tiie pension au hour or two later, lie found tiie three together chattering and laugh ing. They grew silent as lie ap proached. “They tell me I owe you my life, Noel,” lie said hoarsely. Louis turned away. It hurt him to see Hie man’s humiliation. It did not hull Hester one whit. “Here is tiie money,” she said, sweetly smiling, tapping tiie pack age, “Monsieur Noel will himself transmit it to Montreal.” Wall looked into the soft taunting eye one breathless moment. “I did it for you, woman,” lie said and turned away. L mis Noel never mentioned Wall’s name after that day. But liis wife often did, always addiue: “There was much good in that man after all.” Miss Miirkn.v*N Hltf 1'iilrla. There is endless talk here over Miss Mackay’s extraordinary betrothal. Hhe is known in New York,hut m ver created any expression, though very good natured. Tiie great attractions abroad were, of course, due to hei father, Bonanza Mackay, win* has kept Paris m a stale of palpitating amazement by his extravagance for several years. It was always sur mised that Miss Mackay wanted to catch a tilled husband, but the most sanguine never dreamed of royal tiliHid, aud her capture of a prince of tiie house of Bourbons, deserves to create a sensation. Probably no more arrogant and haughty stock than that of Hie D.ike de Aquila does not exist. They trace their lineage direct for ft thousand years, and tins is Hie first time it has ever been mix ed with a commoner’s blood. Miss Mackay lakes a dowry, ii is said, of $-1,000,000. A thought is hound to come in here, aud I fancy that more than one mail exclaims, when reading the news: “Poor girl, poor girt.” I confess I pity* tier in spite of her so-called good fortune. How will the Spaniards treat her? Hhe is said to i>e of a rattier timid disposi tion. I pity* her. By-the-hy, she is not Bonanza Mackay’s own daugh ter, as is generally supposed. Her father was a gold miner, who worked beside Mackay when they were starv ing to deatli at Gold Hill, Nevada. His name was Johnson, “Doctor” Johnson, as he was then called, and lie and Mackay were warm friends. Johnson died in 186? and left a wid ow and one daughter. Mackay "struck it rich*’ and married tiie daughter of his old friend, and his daughter is the present Miss Mackay. No one ever knew who Johnson was, but his wife was then a woman of refinement and gave tire impression of gentle breeding. Mackay lias al ways lived happily with her, aud seems to think as much of her daughter as if she was of his own blood. A HKAVY BUKDKN. “Rather a heavy .burden, isn’t it, my hoy?” Clarence Spencer, to whom ttie words had been addressed, turned from tiie ledger, aud looked towards the speaker. Clarence was a young man—not more than ilve-and-twenty —and was book-keeper to Mr. Solo mon Wardle, a pleasant- faced, keen eyed man of fifty, who had spoken. “A heavy burden, isn’t it, Clar ence?” tiie merchant repeated. And still tiie young man was si lent. His looks indicated that lie did not comprehend. He had been for some time bending over tiie ledg er, witli liis thoughts far away; and that liis thoughts were not pleasant ones was evident enough from tiie gloom on liis handsome face. “My dear boy, tiie burden is not only heavy now, but it will grow heavier aud heavier, the longer you carry it.” “Mr Wardle, I do not conipre bend you.” “All, Clarence!” “I certainly do not." “Didn’t I call at your house for you this morning?” ('larence nodded assent. “And didn’t I see and hear enough to reveal to me tiie burden that vou took witli you when you left? You must remember, my boy, that I am older than you are, and that I have been through the mill. You find your burden heavy; and I’ve no doubt that Sarah’s heart is as heavy as your own.” And then Clarence Spencer under stood, and the morning scene was present with him, as it had been present with him since leaving home. On (hut morning lie had a dispute with his wife. It had occurred at the breakfast talde; there is no need of reproducing the scene. Suffice it to say that it had come of a mere nothing, and had grown a cause of anger. The first had been a look and a tone; then a flash of imps Hence; then a rising of tile voice; then another look; tiie voice grew higher; tiie reason was unhinged; passion gained sway, and the twain lost sight of the warm, enduring love thut lay smitten and aching down deep in their iiearts, ami felt, for the time only tiie passing torna do. And Clarence remembered that Mr. Warded had entered tiie house and caught a sight of tiie storm. And Clarence Spencer thought of one tiling more; lie thought how miserably unhappy lie had been all the morning; and lie knew not how long liis burden of unhappiness was to lie borne ‘Honestly, Clarence, isn’t it a heavy and thank leas burden?" Tiie bookkeeper knew that liis employer was his friend, and I hat he was a true hearted, Christian man, and after a pause lie answered.” Yes, Mr. Wardle, it is a heavy burden.” Mv hoy, I am going to venture upon a Ini of fatherly counsel. I hope I shall notoffsud.” Not at all,” said Clarence. He winced a little, as though the prob ing gave him new pain. "Iu the first place, pursued Hie old man, wiyi a quiver of emotion iu his voice, “you love your wife?” L >ve her? Yes, passionately.” And do you think she loves you in relurn?” I don’t think anything about it— 1 know.” You know sin* loves you?" Yes.” Then you must, admit that tiie trouble lliis morning came from no ill-feeling at. the heart.” • >f course not." ‘It was but a surface squall, for which you at least are very sorry.” A moment’s hesitation and then— “Yes, yes; I am heartily sorry.” Now mark me, Clarence, and an swer me honestly: Don’t you think your wife is as sorry as you are?” “I cannot doubt it.” “And don’t yon think she is suf fering all this time?” ‘'l’erhaps.” "Very well. Let that pass. You know she is bearing her part of the heavy burden?” "Yes, I know that.” “And now, my boy, do you com prehend where tiie heaviest part of this burden is lodged?” Clarence balked upon his interlo cutor wonderingly. “If Hie storm had all blown over, and you knew that tiie sun would shine when you next entered your home, you would not feel so unhap py?” Clarence assented. “But,” continued Mr. Wardle, “you fear that there will lie a gloom in your home when you return?” The young man bowed his head as lie replied in tiie affirmative. " Because,” tiie merchant added, with a touch of piternai sternness iu liis tone, “you are resolved to carry it there.” Clarence looked lip in surprise. “I—I carry it?” “Yes; you have Hie burden in heart, and you mean to eary it home. Remember, my boy, I liuve been there and know all about it. [ have been very foolish in my life time, and I have suffered until I dis covered my folly, and then I resolv ed Ihat I would sillier no more. U|miii looking tiie matter squarely and hon estly in tiie face I found tiie burdens which tiail so galled me self imposed. Of course such burdens can lie thrown off. Now you have resolved to go home to dinner with a heavy heart and dark face. You have no hopes that your wife will meet you with a smile. And why? Because you know that she lias no particular cause for smiling. You know that her heart is burdened with affliction which gives you so much unrest. Anil you are fully assured that you are to find your home shrouded in gloom; and, furthermore, you don’t know when that gloom will depart aud when Hie blessed sunshine of love will burst ill again. And wby don’t you know? Because it is not in vour heart to sweep tiie cloud away. You sav to yourself, ‘I can bear it as loug as she can. Am I not right?” Clarence did not answer in words. "I know I am rigid,” pursued the merchant, “aud very likely your wife is saying to herself tbe same tiiiug. Ho your hope of sunshine does not rest upon your willingness to forgive but upon tbe inability to bear tiie burden. By and by it will tiappeu, as it lias liapjiened before, that one of tiie twain will surrender from exhaustion, ami it will lie like ly to tie tiie weaker party. Then there will lie a collapse ami reconcil iation. Generally the wife falls first beneath the galling burden, because her love is keenest ami most sensi tive. Tiie husband in such a case acts the part of a coward. When lie might, with a breath, blow the cloud away, lie cringes ami cowers until his wife is forced to let tiie beautiful sunlight in through her breaking heart.” Clarence listened and was trou bled. He saw the truth aud felt its weight. He was uot a fool nor was iiea iiar. During the silence that followed he reflected upou the past, aud he called to his mind scenes just as Mr. Wardle had depicted. And this brought him to tiie remem- j branceof how he had seen his wife weep when she had failed and sank beneath the heavy burden, how often she had sobbed upon ills bosom in grief for tiie error. The merchant read the young mail’s thoughts, ami after a time, lie rose ami touched him on tiie arm. “Clarence, suppose you were to put on your liat ami go home. Suppose you should think ou your way only of the love and blessing that might lie; witli this thought you should en ter your abode with a smile on your face; and you should put your arms around your wife’s neck and kiss her ami softly say to her, ‘My dar ling, I have come home to throw down tiie burden 1 took away with me this morning. It is greater than I can hear.’ Suppose you were to do this, would your wife repulse you?" “Repulse me?” “Ah, my boy, you echo my words with an amazement which show that you understand me. Now, sir, have you the courage to try tiie ex periment? Dare you lie such a man? Or do you fear to let your dear wife know bow much you Jove her? I)o you fear she would respect you less for tiie deed? Tell me, do you think tiie cloud of happiness might thus lie banished. Oil, Clarence, if you would but try it.” Sarah Spencer had finished her work in tiie kictheil amljin Hie bed chamber, am! sat down with tier work in her lap. But she could not ply Imr needle. Her heart was heavy and sad, and tears were in tier eyes. Presently she heard tiie front door open and a step in the passage. Cer tainly she knew that slep. Yes, her husband entered ami a smile was on liis face. She saw it through her gathering tears and her heavy heart leaped up. He came and put liis arms around her ueek aud kissed her and said to her in broken accents: “Darling, I have come home to throw down tiie burden 1 took away with me this morning, ft is greater than I call bear.” Anil she, trying to speak, pillow ed her head on liis liosom and Bobbed ami wept like a child. Oil, could lie forgive her? His coming with tiie blessed otter had thrown the burden and reproach back upon herself. She saw him noble and generous ami she worshipped him. But Clarence would not allow her to lake all Hie blame, He must share that. VVe wilt share it so evenly,” said lie, “that its weigiit shall lie felt no more. Ami now, my darling, we shall lie happy.” “Always.” Mr. Wardle had no need, when Clarence returned, tn ask Hie result He could read in the young mail’s brimming eyes and ill tin* joy-in- pi red lace. II was a year after this—anil Clar- nee Spencer had become a partner in tiie house—that Mr. Wardle, by blent, referred to Hie events of that gloomy morning. Ah,” said (.‘larence with swelling bosom, “that was tile most blessed lesson i ever received. My wife knows win* gave it to me." And it serves you yet, my hoy?” Aye. and it will serve us while we live. We have none of those old iiirdeus of anger to bear mnv. They ■aunot find lodgment with us.

She was at such times so neatly dressed, so smiling, so sweetly differ ent from lier every day aspect, that she made a regular weekly conquest of his heart. Oh, there are few women who can’t lie charming if they earnestly set about it—even while eating. I mention (his test of feminine grace because it is a severe one. Tiie process of filling thestomach ordained by nature is vulgar in itself, and a great deal of daintiness is re juired in the woman win* would eat unrepellantly. Fried oysters are n sore trial to the ethereal girl who sils down to them witli her admirer after a late theatrical performance. It has been five or six hours since dinner, and she is hungry as a bear that lias lived on liis paws all winter. Hhe knows that bed-lime is close ahead, and she will not have to endure tier orset long, if she does tighten it from Die inside. But a big appetite is dis- encliaticg in a maiden, and fried oysters are greasy. Tiie problem be fore lier is how to put the seven oys ters into herself without convincing the young man that lier stomach is about like liis own in its periodical ■all for food. There is a risk in [lie matter that no skill can wholly elim inate. The best rule is to put on an expression of very mild disdain at each mouthful, as though you took it in under protest. Don’t overdo this, and look as though sickened, imt just elevate tiie brows a trifle, smile faint ly, and try to give the impression that you tolerate a fried oyster, hut do not hanker after it. I watched a slender, graceful, angel-faced creature iu a fashionable oyster house the oilier night, anil saw that by neglecting lier deportment she was shocking tiie fellow across tiie tabic, l’erhaps she didn’t care whether lie adored lier or not. Anyhow, she was putting Hie oysters into tier mouth by halves, diewing them witli undisguised guslo, swallowing plenty of bread and cut cabbage along witli them, aud taking no pains whatever to lisguise tiie fact that she was enjoy ing them mightily. At the next table sat a thicker aud older woman, who practised the art of oyster-eating as 1 have indicated it. Her facial ex pression was clever. She slipped in [lie field iu big pieces when lier com panion wasn’t lieiking, and nibbled when lie was looking. Hhe got away witli a hearty meal without appear ing !o have taken anything tn speak of, and it was only the empty plates that revealed the fact. She was uot tessskilful iu driukiug her half quart of champagne. The glass was lifled to lier lips like the hand of a queen to kiss; lier mouth shut over barely an inch of the brim; there was no slop ping or gurgling; tiie wioe trickled neatly down tier throat, but with jiiite sufficient celerity. When start ing to go out, with eonsideraiile of tiie fluid efferve.-emg in her brain, she failed for a dreamy instant to rec ognize tier reflection in the full- length mirror, anil tried to turn out to let herself pass by herself. The blun der was seen by nobody but me. She. recovered her equanimity instantly, and departed as smoothly as a fairy.

Willis lectured last night to a small but select audience at the Young Men’s Temperance Union Hall, on the subject <>f “Love aud Marriage.” Before commencing liis remarks, lie exhibited a skull, and pointed out phrenologically all the peculiar characteristics of tiie per son who carried it around. He en deavored to show where the love part of tiie brain was, anil then commenc ing liis lecture proper, he said lie wanted to speak of tiie power of love. No such man as Brigham Young, in his opinion, had any love in him. He had too many wives. To fall in love people must fee! as if they could caress ami embrace each other. Some girls like to hug and kiss, and others didn’t care one cent about it. It all depended upou the organ of conjugality. Some married people never kissed each other, while some were very fond of kissing. Couples often got along well enough, hut there was not that congeniality between them that should exist be tween man and wife. Love, lie con tended, was in its very nature attrac tion or magnetism. "I,nvc, whmt In Isive ? 'Tls tbe rttrlvhm of two Hpirils to he one,” Ac. Many people, he added, were apt tie mistaken in their affections. There were lots of it in tiie United Slides, which lie attributed to novel reading, the latter producing loo much senli- meiitalism. He then descrihtd the average young couple going through a siege of courting, and said there was just as much diilereiice between admiration ami love as bet ween black and while. Love blinded most folks. If a girl was in love with a man she became blind to liis faults. A second test of love was Hint lovers were al ways unhappy if not in each others presence. The third lest was if you were in love with a person you would die for him Such lesls were good evidences. Love lie regarded as a boon of happiness. Let an old maid fall jn love, and tier eyes would sparkle and she would look ten yeais younger. She would become a ■hanged being. He was just a lit tie severe on all old maids, tor lie said the most of them were sour. They made the best hoarding house keep ers, though, in the world. Tiie great object of modern ourtship, lie eoutilined, was to get. acquainted, marry and fool each otli- He poililt-d out the deception practiced nowadays in order to win a wife or a husband, and spoke of com mercial inarriiige. He claimed, in conclusion, that in all questions of marriage the facial xpressious should lie studied. Men and women ought to know about human nature. PliiA « uiMcnl of Mo|iiill(* VH«>, or Burlnl Alive— .4 Nlrnncn l»lot*e. Among tho most curious uookmiud ornora in Koine is ofn* into which very few of the American traveler* who visit it penetrate—the convent popularly known as tiie Sepolte Vive, “The Buried Alive,” hut whose correct title is the House of the Fran- ir-cau Nuns of the Conception. It was founded hy a lady of noble Ital ian family, for whom the severities of tin* order of the Poor (’lares, rigorous these are,were not adequately mor tifying, and is the only one of the kind in Koine. Ttie approach to the ion vent is hy a narrow lane, with a large grating protected picture of tin* rueilixion at the end. (’lose beside tiiis is a staircase. At the top is I he entrance to the Sepolte Vive. The portress takes the visitor to a spot where he sees a curious contrivance hy which communication is he’d witli tiie outer world Over it is written, in Italian. “She shall enjoy an un known peace who at this first thres hold of her own free will for pure love despoils herself.” The visitor then knocks at the barrel-shaped machine, which revolves until it shows a sec tion like that of an orange from which a quarter lias been cut The nun’s voice is heard, hut she is absolutely nvisihle. The nuns wear only coarse woolen; two garments in winter, one in summer. These articles last two years, and are never washed. Six teen hours of the twenty-four are de voted to religious exercises. An extra Bent is kept—from November to Christmas. The nuns live on chari ty, and they accept anything given them. They must be absolutely with out food for twenty-four hours before they ask alms. Then then may ring a hell, which means, “We want din ner.” Visitors give them money sometimes, and receive in return “cartolinc” or little papers in tiny packets, which, if you swallow in faith, are said to he as efficacious as even the marvelous specifics. Al though access to the “barrel” is thus easy, scarcely any one gets inside the convent. That requires extraordina ry interest. A lady who succeeded in doing this passed through live heavy iron doors before reaching the reception-room. On one wall of it was a round grating. Behind this two others, and behind the third stood the Mother .Superior veiled, who, being attired in white woolen, pre sumahly has the exclusive luxury of having her clothes washed. The Sis ters are dead to their families. When their relatives die, the Mother Siq»e- rior merely says: “Bet us pray for the soul of one who has departed.” But who the person may he they don’t know. No new admission of nuns are now permitted, and the order will soon he extinct. Sad Fatk of a Sthttkkjno Man. —No philosopher ever yet has found great good in that vocal infirmity whence stuttering comes. The tongue-tied are saved from hasty speech, and it may he that Charles Bamh’s lingual defect helped along his jokes, hut ordinarily, as in the ease of a certain young man of Min neapolis. stuttering is a misfortune. Tliis young man had been thrown into the company of a husband hunt ing woman, who, though not exactly young, heroically struggled to keep within the twenties. As tiie story runs, tiie stutterer was obliged to take tiie woman home from a party tii** other night, and as they drove along in a sleigh lie gallantly entertained lier witli talk up»»n current topics. As they neared the woman’s house the stutterer remembered that in his overcoat pocket was a paj»er hag tilled with mixed caramels bought f«»r an other girl, and, placing his hand to that part of the coat, lie asked: “ Bu- Bu-cv, do do do you love mix-mi.v- mix—” But Lucy, feeling the youth’s right arm fumbling at her side as if to encircle lier waist, and hearing what she supposed were words of de claration, fell fainting upon his shoul der.
