This was a beret or flat cap, woven of snow-white wool, and Hue - mounted by a crimaon tassel spread pub over the top. From beneath this elegant coiffure her dark eyes flash- ed and sparkled, while her luxuriant chestnub curls fell down over her neck, the alabaster fairness of which made her white bead -dress look almost tawny. Elther because the air, al- though we were atilt) in the month of September, was fresh upon the moun- tains, or else because she was pretty and a woman, and therefore we sorry to' show hereelf t the best advantage, she had twisted round her waist a very long cashmere scarf, previously pass- ing it twee one ah seder in the man- ner of a ssvord-belt, the ends hang ing down nearly to her stirrep; and this gave something peculiarly plc turesque, almost fantastical, to tie whole aopearanee. Upon the second day or my arrival at the, baths of St. eauveur, in the Pyrenees, I had fallen in with my aid friend and eollege chum. Jack M`Der- mot, who was taking his sister the roued oft he French watering -places, Dorree health had been delicate, the faculty :had recotnmeaided the excur- sion ; and Jaok, who dented upon his only sister, hed dragged her away from the gaieties of Lendon and brought her off te the Pyrenees. M' - Dermal was an exeellent fellow, neith- er a wit hot a Solomon ; but a good- hearted dog who had been much liked at Trin. Coll., Dublin, where he had thought very little, of hie studies, and le good deal of his horses and dogs. An Irishman, to be aura occasionally a slight towel of the brretue was per- ceptible in les talk ; but from. this bis sister, who had been brought up in England was, entirely free. Jack had eenu,g estate of three thousand a year; Miss Dora had twenty thouaa.nd teunds from her mother. See had passed two seasons In London ; and if vibe was not already married, it was because not one of the fifty atipirauts to her hand bed found favour in her bright' eyes. Lively and highespirited, with a slight turn for the eatirleal, she loved her independence, find was d t t please I had been Absent from England for nearly two years, on a Continental tour ; and although I had beard much of Miss M'Dermcit, I had never seen her till her brother introduced me to her at St. Sauveur. I had not known her an hour, before I found myself in a fair way to add another to the livit of the poor moths who had Binged their wings at the perilous light of her beauty. When M'Dermot-learning that, like themselves, I was on a de- sultory sort of ramble. and had not marked out any particular route -of- fered me a Neat in their carriage, and ueged me to accompany them, instead of prudently flying from the danger, I foolishly exposed myself to it, and lo I what might have been anticipated came to pass.

As an intimate friend of her brother, I was already, with Dora. on the footing of an old acquain- tance; she seemed well enough pleased with my society, and chatted with me willingly and familiarly; but in vain did I watch for some slight indication, a glance or an intonation. whence to derive hope. None retch were percepti- ble; nor could the most egregious cox- comb have fanoied that they were. We once or twice fell in with other ac- quaintances of her s and her brother'e, and with them she had just the same frank, friendly manner, as with me. I had not sufficient vanity, however, to expect a w-oman, especially one so much admired as Mies ArDermot. to fall in love at first sight with my humble personality. and I patiently waited, trusting to time and assiduity to advance my came. Things were in this state, when one morning. whilst taking, an early walk to the spring& I ran up against an Engliah friend. by name Walter Ash- , ley. He was the son of a country gen- tiernan of moderate fortune. at whose house I hate more than once passed a week in the Mooting season. ,Walter wart an eminent tellow, and a perfect model of the class to which he be- longed. ely no means unpolished in his manners. he had a sort of plain frankness and bonhomie, whieh WW1 peculiarly agreeable end prepossess - SU.

As friend of mine they gave him a cordial ;welcome. and we passed that day and the following ones together. I soon, however, I must confess, beget) to re- pent a little having brought me hanalsome frieed into the eociete of iDore. tithe seemed better pleased with him than I altogether liked ; nor could I won,der at it. Walter Ashley was exactly the mau to please a woman of Dora's charainer. She was rather a romantic turn. and about him there wtui a dash of the chivalrous, well cal- culated to captivate her imagination. Although perfectly feminine. ahe was an excellent horsewoman, and an ard- ent adruirer of feats of addrene aud courage, and she had heard cue toll her brother of &Miley s perfection in 'such matters. On las part, Ashley, like every one else who saw her, was evi- dently greatly struck- vvith her beauty and faacination of Manner. I cannot say that I was &aloud ; 1 had no right to be so,Par Dora had Bev er given, ine encouragement ; but I certainly more than once regretted having in- troduced a third person into what - honest Jack M'Dermot counting, of course. for nothing -had previously, been a sort of tete-a-tete society. I began to fear, ,that, thanks to myself, my occupation waa gone, and Ashley had got it. It wan the fifth day after our meets lag with Walter, and We had started early in the morning upon ap excur- sion to a neighboring lake, the scenery around whioh, we were told, was par- ticularly wild and beautiful. It was situated on a piece of table -land on the top of a mountain, which we could see (ram the hotel window. The dis- tance was barely ten miles, and the road being rough and precipitous, Ma Dermot, and myself, had chosen to walk retest. than to risk our necks by riding the broken-knee'd ponies teat were offered to us. A sure-footed mule, and Indifferent side-saddle, had been procured for Mins M'llermot, and wee attended by a wild -looking Bear - nese boy, or goasoon, as her brother called him, with u soared countenance, and long, lank black hair hanging in irregular shreds about hie face. There is no seaeon more agreeable in the Pyrenees than the month of Sep- tember. People are very apt to expa- tiate on the delights of autumn, ite mellow beauty, peneive charms, and suchlike. I confess that in a general way 1 like the youth of the year bet- ter than its deoline, and prefer the bright green tints of spring, with the suoamer prospective, to the melee- oholy autumn, its russet hues and fall- ing leaves; Its regrets for fine weath- er past, and anticipations of bad to eome. But if there be any place where I should be tempted to reverse my judgment, it would be in South- ern Franee, and especially its western and central portion. •The clear cloud- less sky, the merate heat suoceed- hag to the sultr nese, often overpow- ering, of the summer months, the magnificent vineyards and merry vint- age -time, the noble groves of chest- nut, clothing the lower slopes of the mountains, the bright streams and flower -spangled meadows of Bearn and Languedoc, render no part of the year more delightful in those coun- tries than the months of Septe,mber and Ootober. (To be Continued.) INSURED FOR $10,000,000. Thel Muhl to Re the Aggregate of Poll ries fle the Prince,* of Wales' etre A big insurance man said recently in New York, that the Prince of Wales was the heaviest risk of any parton of the insurance business, and that his death would cost England, German, French and Ameriegu companies not. leas than 510,000,000. cent of that insurance," 110 said, "but "No other person carries 20 per comapratively little of it is for.ithe benefit of his family; perhaps not more n 411,00,000. Some years ago large policies were taken out by his credi- Wrs, as seeurity for money loaned. If lie should ever pay his debts they would of course revert to him, and migbt be carried for the benefit of his family, but his premiums, like the pre- mium on all of e royal families of Europe, are very high -much higher than thoee paid b private individuals for the same amount of insurance. , "It is a curious Mot," eontinued the insurance man, who spends a good deal of his time in England, "that 52,060,- 000, or 53,000,000 of Insurance, perhaps more than that, has been placed on the life of the Prince of Wales as a speculatiem by persons who do not know him and have never had any re- lations with him whatever. This would not be possible under the in- suranee laws of tit% tountry, but it is allowed by some of the English com- panies. Over there any man can se, oure a policy on the life or a neigh - bur, provided lie oan persuade the neighbor to submit to a medical exam- ination or find a oompany which has recently had him examined. Thus whom the Prinoe of Wales undergosie an examination for insurance lots of epeculatons apply to the game com- pany for polimea on his life, or get certified oopies of the report of the medical examiner and use them with other companies. It is pure specu- lation, They pay a high premium, a margin, so to speak, or, to put it in another way, they book a wager with the insurance ectrepanies that the prince will die before the total of their premiums eaceeda the amount of the policy. Therefore many persona would be financially benefited if Albert Edward tthould drop sudaenly one of these fine daya. The prime is perfeetly( aware of thes fact. He !mows very well what ad- vantagea have been taken of his situ- ation, but I do not suppoae it melees any difference with his habites." THE THISTLE. This is the story, that is told of the Scotch thistle and how it came to be Scotland's emblem. Marty. inane long yaws ago the Danes went into Scotland to drive the Scothh people out.

They must not be allowed to become pot-bound, but ahoald be gaited every three or four weeka till from the two ineti pot in which the eutting was set, the pleats fiud themselves in a five or six-inela Pot about the time the buds should appear. The young plants must never be allowed to dse out. Over waterlog is a danger, but they should never sa- fer for want of water. In potting, take care to give nett soil, so as to induce strong healthy geowth, and thus avoid the uste of limed fertilizera later. Not that the judicious use of this form of fertilizer is not good practice but that so few will be judicious. Their motto seems to be " a little is good, a 41004 deal must be better," and the plants are killed with kindness. When the pinata get to be six or eight Melte& high it is time to think about their 'tape or form, If a plant with two or tbree or four atems de, aired, uip out the central bud on the main stalk. which will cause it to branch. Then aeleet the strongest branchest of those that start and let them grow, pinching off the others. Keep the lateral branches pinched out on the stalks you decide to grow, let- ting all the etrengtb of the stalk go to the trimmed bud, which will one day develop a flower bud. /1 you wish one large flower, allow the plant to grow one stem only, pinching out side branches as they start. The plants will have to ee staked as they grow large. The growth should not be rapid, but should be steady and healthy. Too feat growing is sure to result in bare stems, and the beauty of a chryeantheenun lies in its foliage as well as in Re flowers. The ideal plant Is well foliaged, the stems being clad with leaves right up to the flower's. MEATS FOR SUMMER. Hem Onaelet:-Fill a coffee oup with bread crumbs and cover with milk. Beat 9 eggs vary light and mix lightly with the soaked bread. Pepper and welt to elate. Divide the mixture, cooking it on two well greased griddles, like large cakes. When well "set," sprinkle over half of each omelet 1-4 cup very finely chopped ham, cooked. Fold over and in a minute take up on a hot diah, dot over with butter and serve. Tripe, Sceuthern Style. -One onion cut fine and 000ked, a little butter, when soft. but not colored, add, 111). tripe cut in pieces one inch long by 1-4 inch wide; place these in the saucepan with the onion and toss over the fire a short time, to evaporate the moisture and get well heated through, then add half a can of tomatoes, drained aornewhat, boil or simmer slowly until reduced to a good body and bright color; season with salt and a little cayenne pepper. Dish up neatly, Lamb Broth. -This ia so good it ought to be put on the table once a week, and it can be easily varied. Rice may be peeked with it, or it may be thick- ened and dumplings or croutons eerved with it, or a few vegetables chopped fine may be czoked with it. To make the broth you will not need much but the bonea, and these must oe put on in cold water end simmered all forenoon, When you have rtunoved the bone from your mutton for the broth you can then atuff the leg and roast it, thus giving a still greater variety. Pot Roate.-A pot roast of beef is cheap and te my notion better than any other sort. The seerat of a good pot roast is to have only enough water in the bottom of tbe pot to keep the meat from sticking or scorching, and to watch that the water does not boil away, When done, make a brown gravy and serve with a variety of vegetables like a boiled dinner, only thei way they are more digestible. 7-- PICEA* HINTS. First get the best and purest vine- gar; white wine vinegar is the best. If it cannot be procured, then u.se pure eider vinegar. I Use glass jars. or else unglazed earthen jans. Use eaucepans lined with earthenware or porcelain to boll your vinegar in, and wooden knives and forkm in the preparation of your pickles. Fill your jar three parts with the artiele,s to be pickled and then add vinegar up to the neck of the jar. Pickled Nasturtiuma.-Fill a atone jar or glass with the beat cold vinegar; takes the eeeds of the nasturtium after the flower ban gone off. They ahould be full grown. Pick off the stems and put the ends into vinegar. They will keep a year if covered closely. They can be prepared with spices and boiling vinegar If preferred. Pickled Onione-Peel snaall silver onions and put them in a pan of boil- ing water. When they look Wear, take them out with a strained ladle and place on a dry cloth. When quite dry, put them into a jar and cover with hot apiced vinegar. When cold, weight them down and oover deeply. THE SAND PILE. A common saying among the old-time motaers when tbe rising generation is found covered with the remains of a glorious mud -pie feast is: " Never mind, one must eat a peek of dirt in one's lifetime anyhow." This overwbelming desire on the part of the youngetere to mix in the primal elementa, of fire, air, earth and water, is the source of Much anxiety to or- der -loving mammas, who etill desire that the little ones should have health- ful exercise.

Miss Hettie Archer, of Welland, an estimable young lady, whose acquaint - antes extended among a large number of ci Ligon& of the town, has the following to pay regarding the virtues of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People: - In the fall of 1897 1 Wee taken very I was nervous, weak and debilitated• At title time the least exertion caused greet fatigue.

In regard to the recently reperted danger that the bubonic plague would reach Europe and England in ite march to the weetward, Surgeon Fairfax Ir- win ham written from London, under date of July 24. It does mot a,ppean that there is any expectistion in Lontima that the bus bole° plague, is liketil to extend much beyond its present linits. This feeling of security is due to the fact that all proper precautions are being taken. It is true that there are a considerable number of eases, sind there is also aome extension, yet the disposition to spread in Alexandria does not appear griiht„ althou,gh it might be thought that all the conditions fori such ex- tension are present in that city. It is neported officially to the Colonial Of- fice, that the bubonic plague, which has been raging in Hoag Kong and Mau:H.- 6es, has extended to the French is- land of, Reunion. As to Mauritium, neturn for the week ended on Thursday last shows that si3 cases of plague occurred during the week, and that 29 of these proveci fatal. No fresh ease of plague has been reports ed at Alexandria for the last four days. In the earlier part of lest week, how- ever, there were 6 new epees, 5 deaths and 5 recoveries. The total number of eases upi to tin present Is 74„ of which 32 have 'been fatal. It wan reported from Skeefda in Sweden, that the epidemic of anthrax which recently broke among the cat- tle izu West Gothiand, and oubsequent- ly also attacked human beings, eon - doom tot spread and thet 40 parishes are now infected. Owing to the peer valeace of ithe epidemic the great mil- itaty manoeuvres whiah were to be held in West Gothiand have been countermanded. • 41. -Or HOW TO rTAKE" A PICTURE.

For a few minutes the Lord Qbaricel- • lerr lay back on the woolsack, comfort- able, twiddling him arms. But sudden- ly he sat Upright., The silent Peers bent forward. .For coming threngn the door facing the Throne was a lit- tle process/go in radiant red. Fisst came Black Rod. Behind him canais the Deputy -Garter King -at -Arms. In hie wake walked the spruce figure of Lord Roberto of Kandebar, Then came Lord Kiteteaer of Khartoum, aline and staaight, aod ;seemed very tall beside Lord Roberts -also in Wag red robe% Re was in a quiver of nervousness when he stood at the door and bowed to the Lord Chancel- . lor. laie cheeks were colored to deep purple. His eyes waa aflame with ex- citement, and he fumbled with his pat- e -et nobiiite, as though he didn't know; whether to tear 11 up, of throw it, away or give it to somebody. Be- hind hen walked Baron cromer, in red robes. Nobody spoke, no- body moved, while this proceasion of robes marched slowly up the floor. Reaching the wooleaok Black Rod stepped on one side; Garter King -ate Arme stepped en the other. Lord Kitchener dropped upon bis left knee, and with both /iambi held out his PATE/NT OF NOBILITY. The Lord Chancellor took it, elightly unrolled, it. and let loose the blue rib - bone ettaglied, glanced at it, and hand- ed it hack. Lord Kitchener bowed low on receiving his patent, and the Lord Chancellor raided his three -cornered hat 'two inches above we wig. 'rhea Bleale Rod led toe way to the Clerk's table, end Lord Kitchener walked be- tween hie introdueera-Lord Roberts, the soldier, and Lord Cromer, the ad- ministrator. The Clerk in bobwig ea - peeved the patent and began to read it er end of the Hou.se facing the throne, Black Rod and Garter Hing -at -Arms fell out of the proceseion. The three Peers ascended the gangway, and in the furthest canner of the back seat they sat down, Lord Kitchener in the middle. They put on their hate. Sil- ence prevailed. The three rose togeth- er ; automaticaley they all raised their cocked hats, and bowed with a long sweep. Aa Lord Kitchener passed the wookrack on his way to tthe hall be- hind the throne, the Lord Chancellor pushed out his hand and grasped that of the hero and shook it warmly. He cleaner was covered with cenfusion, but he moiled. These owt into the hall he wesat. In two minutea Lord Hitehener and Lord Roberts were back in the chamber. nub their •bright robes had gone. They were in ordinary frock poets. They Blipped into the second of the cross benches. Lord Kitchener was makigor painfu,l efforts to look at ease.

I .11t will be seen from the above Fig- ures that tbe progress of the company goes on uninterruptecUy. The new policiess issued, and ehe amounts as- sured under them, exceed those of any previous year. The amount received for the pur- abase pf annuities is aloe greater than ever previously reported. The sums paidl in death claims are considerably in excess of the corresponding amounts tor the previous year, but the death rates are still well within the expecta- tions on which the several tables of premiums are based.. Nietwithetamiing this greater outgo, the total funds have largely increased eating the year, and now aggregate oonaiderably more than 844,500,00. While not neglecting the important laome connections, the consolidation of tbe agencies outside the United King- dom goes on steadily, and the com- pany are beginning to reap the fruits of the policy of eareful extensiou which they have been working out steadily for many yeara past. In view of the company's expansion and of the large amount of work -both responsible and routine - now con- sequently falling upon the rnembers of the board at the head office, the direc- tors think it desirable to increase the numbers on the board through the ad- dition of another member. The company have now already passed the middle period towards an- other investigation and division of pro- fits, and, although the rate of interest on the invested funds has necessarily fallen of late years -a circumstance which cannot be without its effect -the belied have, thus far, every reason to hope that the final results of the quin- quennium will be satisfactory to all concerned. The rebuilding of the company's preei mises in Edinburgh is progressing sat- isfactorily, and the board hope that r the next annual general meeting of the oompany may be beid within the board room of the new office. In moving the adoption of the report, t which was unanimously carried, the t Chairman, Mr. A.R.C. Pitman, said it was very gratifying to know that the new business of the year had, for the a firat time in the history of the com- pany, exceeded ten millions of dollars, • a and from year to year it was growing, 1 d showing no signs of standing still. He also referred to the very satisfactory and sound condition of the compttny, which gave it a very high standing, while Its investments were of the saf- est character. The appointment of Mr. William Younger as an additional director was approved of. SPENCER C. THOMSON, Manager. Montreal; W. M. RAMSAY. Manager for Canada. J. HUTTON BALFOUR. Seeretary. THE SORROWFUL TREE. --a It Mamma Only at &Witt and la IllIghted When the Sun uisco There Le a tree in Persia to which the name, "The Seerowful Tree," is given. Perhaps because it blooms enly in 'the evening. . ,When the first star appears in the heavens, the first bud of the Sorrowful Tree open.s, end as the shades of night advaince and the stars thickly stud the sky, the buds continue gradually open- ing until the whole tree look,s like one immense white flower. , On the ap- proach of dawn, when ebe brilliancy of the stars gradually fades in the light a day, the Sorrowful Tree closes its Cowers, and ere the sun is fully retell net a single blossom is visible. A Sheet of flower dust, as white as snow, covers the ground around the foot, of the tree, which seems blighted and wiblyered during the day, while, hlowever, it Ls actively prepartng for the meet nocturnal festival. The fra- ance of the blossoms is like that of the evening primrose.
