When ten o'clock struck, Lady Caro-

"Mildred, darling," she said, bend-

So Lady Caroline, giviug her her

ee it struck, feet came rapidly up the
stem, and then nearer and- nearer,

came to those within a gay, ringing
laugh, irrepressible in its joyoueness,
which was heard by all.

A short ugly wall rose before him,
surmounted by a hedge of some sort,
thick and prickly, which effectually
concealed from viola the heavy fall

actly aio impossible thing to take,
though decidedly a "facer"; and Den-
zil, understanding the danger, and
trusting to his horse to carry him
safely through, determined to risk it,
come what might.

and -down on her knees, her horee

Mid placed her hand upon his heart,
but failed to detect the faintest beat.
She drew her fingers across his fore-

A terrible feeling took possession of
her. Was he dead? Was he speechless,

Three hours later, and Miss Pro-

George and Lyndon gave her the load,

"Mildred!" he cried, sharply, put-
ting his hand on her arm with the in-
tention of raising her from the
ground; but she shook him off rough-
ly.
"Let me alone," she said; "what
have you to do with us? I loved him.
Oh, Denzil, My darling, speak to me

"What is tile meaning of this?"
Lyndon asked, hoarsely, "Trevanion,

Sir George, strho was bending' over

"I suppose, as she atys'it, it is

CHAPTER XXIII,
It was late the came evening, and
Mildred, sitting in her mother's room,
with One hand clasped in Lady Caro-
line's, Was gazing idly into the eire,
seeming Pale and dejected in the red
light of the flames, that ever and
anon blaze a up and sunk, and almost
died, and brightened up again, Yet
in her heart there was a great well
of thankfulness, of joy unutterable -
for had not the doctor, fully an hour
before, declared Denzil out of any im-
mediate danger, assuring the 8.11X1011a
watchers that with care and time his
recovery would be a certainty?
Up to that moment Miss Trevanion
had remained in her own apartment,
not oaring to encounter the gaze of
curious observers -now walking fev-
erishly backward and forward with
unspoken prayers within her breast,
now sitting stunned and wretched
waiting for the tidings she yet dread-
ed to hear.
But when Lady Caroline came to
tell her all was well for the present,
she cotild say nothing; she only fol-
lowed her mother back to her own
room, where she fell upon her knees
and cried as though her heart would
break,
Here, too, she confessed all that had
laid so heavily on her mind for the
past few monthe, while the mother,
sat silent, listening and wondering,
and caressing with tender, encourage-
ing fingers the fair bent head that
lay upon her lap.
Sir George, on his return, had told
his wife all that had occurred -and
probably more-togetb.er with a good
deal of information on the subject of
his own feelinge, which he described
at length, as having received a shock
not to be easily forgotten.
He had been extremely fussy and
discursive altogether, but the mother's
heart had divined the truth, and
went out in pitying love to her child.
Now, here, in the gathering darkness
of this cold, unhappy day, a •silence
fell upon them both, while thoughts
rose thick and agitating.
Suddenly the door opened and a ser-
vant stood revealed.
"Lord Lyndon's compliments to
Miss Trevanion, and he would be glad
to see her for a few minutes in 'the
north drawingroom," he said, and lin-
gered for a reply,
"I will be down directly," Mildred
answered, tremulously, and when he
had withdrawn, turned nervously to-
ward Lady Caroline. "Oh, mother,"
she Said, 'what can I say to hint?
What Must he think of -me? How mis-
erable it all is!"'
"Have courage, my darling," whis-
Dered Lady Caroline, "and own the
truth -plain speaking is ever the best
and wisest. Afterward he will forgive
You. Remember how impatiently I
shall be waiting here for your return."
"Of course he will understand that
It is now all over between us?" Mil-
dred asked, half anxiously, as .she
reached the door.
"Of course he will," said Lady Car-
oline, with a. suppressed sigh. How
Could she help regretting this good
thing that was passing away from
her daughter? "Now gg,. and do not
keep him in suspense any longer."
So Mildred went; but, as she pass-
ed the threshold of the room that con-
tained Lord Lyndon, a ssidden rush
of memory almost overpowered her,
Carrying her back, as it did, to that
other night, a few short weeks 'ago,
when she had similarly stood, but
in how different a position in the
sight of the man now standing oppos-
ite to her, Then she had come to offer
him all that was dearest to him on
earth, now she was come to deprive
him, of that boon -was standing before
him, judged and condemned as he.V-
Ing given away that WhiCh in nowise
belonged to her.
She scarcely dared to raise her head,
but waited, shame -stricken, for him
to accuse her, with eyes bent sorrow-
fully downward. Her attitude, though
she knew it not, was perfect. She
looked a broken lily -a beautiful, al-
thOugh repentant sinner.
"I have very little to Bay to you,"
Said Lyndon, hoarsely, in a voice that
was strange and cold, all the youth
being gone out of it, "but I thought
it better to get it over at once -to end
this farce that has been playing so
long."
No answer from Ansa TreVanion
no movement -no sound even, beyond
a slight catching of the breath. .
"Why should you have treated me
as you have is altogether beyond My
fathoming," he went on. "Surely I
could never have deserved it at your
hands, When I gave you that paltry
money a few weeks ago, I little
th6ught it Was accepted as the price

ATLAS AND HIS -LOAD,
Was the Heavens, Not the Earth,
the Titan of Mythology Upheld,
Strictly.ippeakhig, "Wee" is a MIS -
homer for a map book, since it was
not the world, but the heavens, that
the Atlas of mythology unheld. Mer-
cator, the famous Dutch -geographer,
who made globes for Emperor Charles
V. ot Germany, 'was the first to use
the name in this connection, choosing
It as a convenient and in some sort an
appropriate title, because Atlas, the
demigod, figures with a world upon his
shoulders as a frontispiede of some
early works on geography.
Atlas, it was said, made war with
other Titans upon Zeus and, being
conquered, was condemned to bear
heaven upon his head and hands. Lat.
er tradition represented him as a man
changed by means of Medusa's head
into a mountain,' upon which rested
heaven and all its stars.
In any ease, Atlas was always asso-
ciated with it heavy bueden strongly
Verne. Thus Shakespeare makes War-
wick say to Gloucester, "Thou art no
Atlas for so great a weight."
It is not difficult to see how by an
association of ideas this came to be
chosen as the name for a book of
maps which upholds and exhibits to
use the whole world.

monia. I always carry Nerviline in
my grip, and at destination I rubbed
my side thoroughly three times, The
warm, penetrating effect was soon no-
ticeable and I quickly got relief. Ner-
viline, I consider, saved me from an
serious illness.
Any sort of a cold can be quickly
broken up with Nerviline, which is a
marvel for reducing inflammation, -for
relleiring congestion lrt the throat and
chest, for curing stitch, in the side,

matism. Nothing more soothing or
powerful. The 50c large family size is

"Dear Old Ladies" and Other
There are as 3nany kinds of olcl
ladies as there are girls, men, auto-
mobiles, books and remedies for et
cold. There are kindly old ladies, ill
natured old ladies, sharp old ladies,
Witty old ladies, stupid old ladies,
musty -fusty old ladies, dainty old
ladies, wise old ladies, silly old ladies,
Whistler's mother old ladies, Betsy
Trotwood old ladies, white spatted oil'
ladies, churehy old ladies, sit -by -the -
fire old ladies, tangoing old ladies and
Old ladies who don't ,,vish to be •called
old ladies at all.
Nowadays most of them are 80 busy
working in public causes that they
have not titne tO protect their own
interests as they should. But let no
hope that after a while they will
organize a new essociation, to Le
called the Society for the Promotion
of Distinctive Characterizations fee
Old Ladies, and that it will have dis-
played prolninently on its banners the
slogan. "Down With the Word 'Dear!'"

Spoiling the Tobacco,
Winchcombe $t, Peter, in Olouceeter-
Shire, began the cultivation of tobaeco
in England toward the end of the six-
teenth century, and the inhabitants are
said to ha.ve derivea considerable profit
from it until the trade was placed tin-
ter restrictions. An entry in Pepy's
Diary on Scut. 19, MG concerning the
coining 9f a cousin or itis to Own pro-
ceeds: 'She tells me how the life guard
which we thought a little -while since

It seems the people there do plant een-
trary to law and •have always done and

And found you twentyafour!
And now I'm getting old, indeed -
These gray hairs make that pialn;
My flower of youth has gone to seed -

"man has art; he
does not feed like an animol-he
breakfasts, dines and sups."
The French are particularly elo-
quent on the subject of sauces. Among
their famous chefs are recognized
four great sauces, Spanish, veloute,
bechamel and German. The Spanish
and veloute weer known as far back
as the seventeenth century. In the
eighteenth they were modified by the
masters of cookery, particularly by
Careme, who was called "the Raphael
of the kitchen."
The Spanish sauce is composed of
juices extracted from a mixture of
ham, veal, chicken and pheasant. Ve-
loute is similar, but is not colored.
Bechamel is veloute to which cream
has been added, and the German
sauce is veloute plus the yolks of
eggs.

Effects of Lying.
Lying is a. great sin against God, who
gave us a tongue to speak the truth and
ttot falsehood. It is a great offenoe
against humanity Itself; for where there
Is no regard to truth there can be no
Pale society between man and man. And
It is an injury to the speaker; for be-
xi:des the disgrace which it brings upon
him, it occasioas so much baseness of
Mind that he tan scarcely tell the truth
or avoid lying, even when he had no
color of necessity fox' It and in time
he conies to such a pass ..that as other
people cannot ielieve lie speaks tho
truth, so he himself scarcely knows when
he tens it falsehood. As you must be
careful not to Ile, so you intuit avoid
coming near it, You inust not equivo-
cato, nor speak anything positively for
'which you have Ito authority but report,

And With It Went All Those •Symp-
toms Which Meek the Earlier
Stages of Kidney Trouble.
Grand Clairiere, Que., June 26. -
(Special) -"All persons, evhe suffer
from rheumatism should use Dodd's
Kidney Pills." This is the statement
volunteered by Mr. P, A, Bonnot, a
well-known resident of this place.
Asked to give the reasons why Mr:
I3onnot said:
"I suffered for three -.years from
rheumatism. I consultd • a doctor
without getting any results. Four
boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills fixed me
up."
That rheumatism Is caused by sick
kidneys failing to strain the uric acid
out of the blood was again shown in
Mr. Bonnot'e case. His earlier symp-
toms were: Heart fluttering, broken
and unrefreshing sleep, fitful appe-
tite., a tired nervous feeling, a heavi-
ness after meals, neuralgia and back-
ache.
When he cured his kidneys with
Dodd's Kidney Pills the rheumatism
and all the other symptoms of kidney
trouble disappeared.
Laundry Marks in Europe.
Laundry marks vary greatly in Eu-
rope. Those used in Britain consist
of certain email letters or figures
stitched in red thread.- Not all conti-
nental laundries are so considerate,
In some parts of Prance linen is de-
faced by having the whole name and
address of the laundry stamped upon
it and. an additional geometrical de-
sign to indicate the owner.
In Bavaria every piece has a num-
ber stamped on in large characters.
In other parts of Germany a small
cotton label is attached by means of
a waterproof (hot) adhesive. In Bul-
garia each laundry has a large num-
ber of stamps engraved with designs,
and in Russia the laundries mark lin-
en with threads :worked in arrow
shapes.
In some Russian towns the police
periodically issue regulations for
laundries while in Odesea books of
marks are furnished annually to the
laundry proprietors, and these marks
and no others may be used. By this
system criminals and revolutionary
agitators are often traced. -London
