It was indeed impossible for her to keep any secret from hor "usbund. When Mary, in her )onager years, had torn her frock or out her finger, that was always told to the Doctor. If a cardener was seen idling his time, or a housemaid flirting able, bus one doesn't ory for it, because it Therefore 1 with the groom, that certainly would be is unattainable. Mary .did not told to the Doctor. What comfort does a. in truth thick of loving her young lover, woman get out of her husband unless she maybe allowed to talk to him about every thing? When It had been first proposed that Lord Carstairs should come into the houso as a private pupil, she had expressed her fear to the Doctor,—because of Mary. The Doctor had ridicalnd her fears, and Ho had been to her a vory nice boy; and so he was still. That;—that, and nothing more. Then had Dome this little episode in her life which seemed to loud it a gentle tinge of romance. But had she inquired of her bosoms she would have sleohtred that she had not boon in love. With her mother this had been the result. Of course she (thane was perhaps something of " regret. roust tell the Doctor. "Oh, dear," she But it was exmotly the regret which may be felt in roltrenee to the top brick. It would have been so sweet had it been pos- Melu; but then it was set evidently impos- ..ble. With the Doctor the feeling was some- what different. It was not quite so noon - fes. co hili that this special brink was al- t:• tether unattainable, nor even that it WAS qu'.+o the top of the claintnoy. Thero was n.. ruason why his • daughter should not n• rry an earl's son and heir. No doubt th 3 ind had been confided to him in trust.

This was a way of looking at it which Mrs, Wortle had not expected. Her husband seemed rather to approve than otherwise of what shill sent to mo before it mono to mo from the italaoe.
