It. in at st. Main. On pat ling with them,
he said.
“1 have business which will detain me
in ttiis neighborhood for a couple of

take cate of vou.”
His continual deference to bis niece
as a person more to he relied on tban
his own daughters gives attylliitig but
pleasure to them. She is their junior.
Her experience is inferior in all respects
to theirs. She has seen less society, has
tasted less life. They, however, are too
much in awe of their father to openly
manifest any oojeclion to lii.s views; and
consequently, when Clara and Amy do
“show temiM'i" to their cousin, it is
on occasions when the Held is literally ,
their own. They are fine, showy girls;

English air cau make her.” Ml Hers has

The M.sses Chadwick aie lient on con

Imd appeared income. All this happened
in the space of a few moments. As
Grant’s voice, with its continuous cry
“Miss Skelton, Mis* Skelton I” was
heard lower in the craggy hollow of the
bay, the threatened squall came on in
hitler earnest, and perfected the physical
misery of the women, who were crouched

I’aiising in his downward career, he
vond peered him, with painful care near sod’be

Whi't, was it that shone so curiously
about a dozen feet below the crag over
which lie leaned ¥ The fringe of pea¬
