tritious foods are well in their

THE WRONG MAN.
AN exclamation- & horrified scream
-and Nellie Joyce started back with
a bright blush, wishing that the earth
would swallow her up then and there,
while before her, like a culprit, stood
,an astonished young man.
"Hood heavens' I thought "-and
then Nellie stopped short, suddenly
realizing how impossiblg it was to ex-
plain to this stranger that it was for
another man those kisses had been ia-
tended. -
" 1 im thenwrong man I perceive.
Yon have mistaken me probably for
my brother," he remarked, with a
gravity that was highly commendable
under the circumstances, and thinking
in his own mind what a lucky fellow
was Dick.
Nellie made a frantic .ffolAt tn-re-
cover her lost dignity, but merely suc-
ceeded in appeanng what she was—a
horribly embarrassed little girl.
" You -you should 1 have stopped
me in time "-she began, reproach
peeping -freer -her -violet eyesk
she tried to glare at the wretch, as she
saw that his gray ones were twinkling
" I apologize, but you see you took
me by surprise -.-and when I realized
that I was the victim of 'blunder, it
was too late. The -tae mischief had
already been done."
Nellie drew herself up to her full
height, which, to tell the truth, was
nothing very startling, and regarded
the culprit with what she intended
for chilling hauteur.
" Then, since the ' mischief ' "-
with au emphasis whi*h hinted at re-
sentment-" is irrepairs. • the only
thing now to be done is- forget it."
Jack Vereker looked dt •n at the
winsome face, at the long lashed Irish
eyes, and the rosebud of a mouth, the
sweet, soft lips that just now had
pressed his, aid he wished it were
possible to obey her. He was no
!'lady's man "—into his lonely life
women did not ester -and he had
not known till now the thrilling
power of a kiss. -
" Your wishes are commends," he
declsred, with a curious look in his
expressive gray eyes. " and now per-
mit me to introduce myself and ex-
plain my presence here. I am Jack
Vereker, and have jest come from
London to see my brother on business

came on here, where they told me I
should be certain to see hint."
" He was to have been here now,"
raid Nellie, struggling with the shy-
ness which was fast overpowering her.
•' I am Nellie Joyce, Mr. Joyee's
granddaughter."
"Bo I presumed -and now, Miss
Nellie, will you not shake hands with
me on the strength of our future rela-
tionship 1"
Nellie was furious mini herself for
the color which, in spite of her efforts
to look cool,wonld persist in invading
her cheeks; yet was she not accustom-
ed by this time to being pointed out
as Dick Vereker'. fiancee 1
" I see no necessity for doing so,"
she answered, taking refuge in an at-
titude of defiance and telling herself
that she hated this man, " for I am
quite sure we shall never be friends."
" And why not—what have 1
done 1"
" You know what "-And then
again gibe stopped short,for the curious
smile on his lips and that odd look in
his eyes were things that oonld no
longer be ignored.
" But I must ask you to remind me
what I have done—my memory has
become a perfect blank."
Nellie flashed a swift, wrathful look
on him—then she turned and fled ig-
nominiously—and in the seclusion of
her bedroom sat down to think over
the situation.
had on her " Dale blue."
It was so necessary to create • a
favorable impression at first, she told
herself gravely, for when one was
about to enter a family in the aggro.
sive capacity of -anything at all in
law -first impressions were distinctly
valuable.
" My dear Nell" exclaimed Diok an
hour later, as the young lady entered
her grandmother's private sitting
room, down stairs, I have been wait-
ing for yon for nearly au age and my
brother here -Jack, Miss Nellie Joyce
-had made up his mind that you
must belong to the race of myths."
" Indeed," said Nellie with a cold
bow in the direction of the tall figure
in the background and wondering
why she had never t efore noticed
what • provokingly oompiaoent smile
her fiauoee's was. " but you know
yoti were to have been here at half
past four." And then she sat down
on a stool at her grandmother's feet.
"Dick, will you ring for tea 1"
smiled the old lady, softly stroking
her darling's curly head, and then
turning to the silent figure on the
hearth rug, observed that she bad
never saes so extraordinary a ilikeness
before between brothers.
It appeared to Nellie that Dick
seemed anxious to change the subject,
but when grannie wss.pnce launched
on a topic It was not easy to arrest
her and presently she was giving her
opinion on the mysterious tie existing
between twins and the wonderful love
they had for each other -Dick on-
$esvoring, meanwhile, to eater into •
half whispered conversation with his
fiancee,an endeavor that was diecinct-
ly a failure.
" And how long are you going to
remain in Rostrevor 7" asked the, old
lady at last smilingly looking at Jack
as be turned over some prints on the
taliie "sl'fig`6itm-ire is almost
over."
Jack glanced at his brother before
replying, and it was Dick then who
answered for him, airily remarking
that an hour's stay ought to be suffi-
cie.�ntz, if it was business that had
irong htt him there.
Nellie looked from one to the other
and wondered at the uneasy expression
on the face of her fiancee -wondered
still more why she had ever thought
him good looking.
Whatever the nature of Jack Vere-
ker's business at Rostevor, it was not
finished quite as soon as Dick appear-
ed to think it would be for two weeks
passed and he was still at the quiet
seaside resort- Mrs. Joyce was hospi-
tality itself, constantly inviting the
two brothers to inn=heon and dinner
at the little hotel where she had put
up but Jack seldom made an appear-
ance.
It was evident to Nellie that it. was
she whom he avoided, and considering
her hatred to him it was strange how
indignant she was at the thought -
His eyes haunted her cot,tinuslly ;
she found herself perpetually longing
to bring that look to his face that it
had worn when she told hint to " for-
get," and then she was always com-
paring him, unconsciously, with his
brother, s. comparison in which
strange to relate, it was her fiancee
that suffered.
"Jack is coming up tonight to say
good bye," rernarl-.;d Dick one even-
ing at dinner, and Nellie was certain
ere was relief on his face, but she

ed for the meal to be over.
It was easier far, she told herself,to
climb to Rostrevor atone in the
gathering darkness than to meet the
gaze of those grcy eyes, easier the
stiffest ascent than to utter a formai
good-bye to the man who had shown
her her own heart
She was engaged to Diok, and Dick
was grannie's favorite, and the Joyoes
never broke faith -but she must be
away when Jack came tonight.
Rostrevor stone is more easily
climbed in broad daylight than in the
dusk of a late Autumn evening, and
presently Nellie, whose thoughts were
far distant, found herself embracing
Mother Earth.
,her fall, coming so unexpectedly,
together with the intense loneliness of
the scene, osused her to dose her eyes
for • moment, and then—then a most
wonderful thinghappened. Strong
arms were sudenly placed around
her, her Auburn head was pillowed
on a broad chest, and in a tone of in-
effable tenderness • voice 'whispered
in her ear three tittle words—but
three words which made all the world
seem glorified.
"My little girl." It was all he
said but Nellie lay still with closed
eyes, wondering oould heaven hold
greater reptnro than this.
"Jack," the violet eyes opened and
reminded him of his treachery to his
brother, and the next moment the
two stood facing each other in the
dusk, and anguished cry burst
from him.
., God forgive me—I never meant
you to know," looking into the sweet
young fiat which new reilect.d his
own misery, " but I am going awn j

" It was not your fault," she ueur-
mured, while despite the pain of the
awakening there thrilled through her
the exquisite delight of loving and be-
ing loved, " but take me how cow to
hnierund do as I shall try to do---

What a wretch be was, to be sere --

then she wondered what Dick would
say when be heard of ib as hear of it

Reflections of this kind were no
Wolter endurable, so, obangin6 their
nature, Nellie bounded to her feet
and carefully inspected herself in the
mirror, to see if her hair was "tide►."

" Life itself is wrong, I think," she
cried, struggling for a moment against
temptation to be true to her heart at
all costa ; " but there—let us go home

claimed one gossip to another six
months later. " You know the firm

that one of the nbpnews of the head
of the firm -Dick Vereker -has been
for months defrauding his unole and
trying to put it all down to hie
brother Jack's account,taking advant-
age of the likeness between thew.
The fellow was engaged to a pretty
heiress in Ireland and thought to have

everything is known."
" And the girl heart -broken, of

" By no means, for this morning

has consoled herself with the brother."
"Just the way of women all the
world over," is the sententious remark
of the man about town, but under the
clear, sae/ sky on the verandah of s
foreign hotel a violet eyed girl is mur
inuring to her husband, as he bends
fondly over her slight form, " Not the

Mr. Duncan, a white trader, in the
New Hebrides. Last week's Austral-
ian advices state that the unfortunate
victim was tied to a tree for three days
and forcibly stuffed with food for the
pompom ails.lettening_ 61,jtu. .Jjtft. was
then horribly butch,red, and even the
savage women entered joyfully into
the wild and disgusting feast that fol-
lowed.
It is the South Pacific where can-
nibalism holds sway today. The isl-
ands that -stretch aft- the way_ fro
New Caledonia to New Guinea are
the homes of savages, many of whom
still revel in these horrible human
feast, says The New York Herald.
Many tribes, to be snre,are reclaim-
ed or restrained to the extent that
that they seldom or never touch hu-
man flesb,but.there are some who still
live the old savage life in all its de-
tails. And of those who are counted
as reclaimed, there are some who now
and then relapse into the fearful cus-
toms of the past.
There are few wild animals fit for
food in the islands of Oceanis, and
that is probably the first cause af can-
nibalism, though the frightful, bloody
orgies are often a part of religious
customs. Tribes will often assail each
other for the express purpose of secur-
ing a victim to est.
When such a raid has been made,
and proved successful, the victors
bring a fleet of canoes to the scene.
To the stern of each is made fast a
tow of corpses fastened by rope, about
thdneck, and with victorious shouts
and gleeful songs the homeward jour-
ney is commenced. The sonorous
rtngir.g of monster oonches give warn-
ing of their approach, and when in
sight of their low, thatched cottages

" How many 7" comes the question
from the women gathered on the
shore.
The glorification is proportionate
to the number slain- The village goes
wi'd, with a mad, sickening joy, and
when all are disembarked, and the
Corpses ranged upon the beaches, the
wnole savage village dances madly.
Hero is the bokola song, the chant
of joy over the dead bodies on the way
to the cooking pita :
" A-ba-bahale,
" A-bmhebele,
" Bebsbw, bababse,

miles when shrilled by scores of high•
pitched voices of lusty women. Babies
may often be seen dancing awkardly
around the bloody bodies and chant-
ing the weird refrain
Then comes the self -glorification.
The young warriors display their
bloody weapons '.and chant their vic-
tories, acting out the various stages of
the stealthy advance, the wild assault
and the cruel slaughter.
The women, shrilly chorusing, have
meanwhile dragged the already stiffen-
ing bodies to tete spot set apart. The
bead tabu mac, wearing a mask and a
dress of pandanus leaves, examines
