Mr. Darnley muttered his thanks,
and, waiting until Baines had dis-
appeared, then strode into the gar-
den, .and turned off resolutely~ In
the direction of the lower lake.
"She will be there—there, where
fuer love -dream was born °-- my=
darling: --nay darling ---1ny eyes

"
The soft, ten:ler look crept over'
his features, his heart was thrilling
and beating with his lore; an na-
ture seemed to harmonize with his
feelings; there was music in the
soft rush of the night air, the burr
of the insect world seeking its rest;
there was balm and powerful fas-
cination in the fragrance wafted to
himby the nodding flowers; it was
the very place, the very night, for
loves witchery. And there,just
before, lay the corner which he
knew by intuition sheltered the wo-
man whose heaven -blue eyes made
the world his world, whose sweet
lips were his own, whose love sur-
rounded him with peace, happiness
and delight, such , as rarely comes
to man.
The pale summer moon had just
broken through the dusk as Derrick
Darnley reached the well -remem-
bered spot by the lower lake.
His quick, eager eye had caught
the gleam of a white gown, through
the trees, and his heart beat quick-
er in triumph and glad array.
He saw the slender figure but
dimly, for the light was dying fast,
and her silent attitude, born of
suppressed agony, slid not strike on
him as it would have done at an-
other time. He had walked fleetly
-he had almost run --now he
paused.
She had not moved; she .had not
turned-; perhaps she had not heard,
he crept so softly.
"`Nancy."
He called it gently, but she start-
ed back, started like a frightened
deer that saw its ` doom 'approach up her trembling form from the

She paused, his fingers were
clenching her fair young arms, but
she did not heed the pain, What
was it to the agony that lived in
her heart
"It was a mistake," she said, de-
liberately, in a dry, choked voice.

She made no answer. She check-
ed the moan that rase from her
tortured heart. She could not bear
much. more.
``You do not love me l—you, my
darling 1—my promised wife !"
She raised her eyes to his; the
moon's pale light shone placidly
down on them.
"I can never he your wife."
He bent forward to look at her,
but did not release his hold.
"Go on," he muttered, hoarsely;
"`go on, there is more to know and
I am not geed at waiting."
Nancy bent her head as a flower
droops under the hot heat of the
sun. .
"I—I have been very wrong. I
deceived you. I was not -not free
to listen to you:"
"Not free ?" The man repeated
the words three tittles, then he bent
nearer to her. ' _ "His name? Give
me his name, I say!" he asked in
a hoarse whisper.
She paused only an instant.
Then two faintwords passed her
lips:

t<It is very edd," Dorothy Let-

Dinner was oyez, aand. every otic

serenely asleep in his cosy Chau,
Mrs. ainiax was chatting to Lady

Dorothy was alone; she alight

loy, who -was sweeping to and fro
lilajestieally in her long black sae
in robe, her diamonds ,glistening
the moonlight, and an air of nn -
disguised pleasure sitting on her
handsome face, but Dorothy it -IDA -
Rely preferred to be alone.
"It is very odd," she said again.
She was thinking About Darnley
and his non-appeaa,enee,
And where was Nancy -- what
cetilId be keeping her all this tune—
t 'was so unlike Nancy to hide her-
self in this vvay'1
Dorothy bit her pretty Hp, quid

ground,
Her aunt sailed z p
ai led i ' to her at thus
moment.
"Something has detained Der-
rick, I suppose,"she observed;
slowly, "it is too hate for him to
come now."
Her cold eyes were fixed on a
form emerging in the distance as
she spoke ---a form which moved
slowly and languidly as that of: a
man weakened by -illness and` suffer-
ing, and at the sight a tinge of
color crept into her cheeks.
"They have met—we have won!"
was the quick thought in her mind
—a thought full of triumphant de-
light, ignorant of either a woman's
pity or a mother's sympathetic love.
She put her long, slender hand
on Dorothy's shoulder.
"I think we must reconcile our-
selves to the fact that lie will not
come,to-night," she said; and then
she gave a start of surprise. It was
marvellously done, and deceived
Dorothy immediately. "Talk of the
angels, etc, etc.,"',Mrs. Darnley
said, hurriedly: "here is Derry
at last! He must have walked from
the station."
Dorothy jumped up at once, all
annoyance gone.
"Here you are," she cried, ex-
tending ,both her hands in greet-
ing. "You naughty man you! We
have been imagining you lost or
drowned, or attacked by brigands."
"While all the time it was only
ecom everydayheadache that

matte such a furious onslaught on

The man spoke languidly. His
p
hands felt hot and neverish to Doro-
thy's touch; his face was strangely
haggard in the moonlight.
She looked at him anxiously.
"I hope you are aiot going- to be
ill, too, Derry." ,t '
He passed his hand over his ache
ing eyes.
"Why Have you other invalids,
Dorothy?"
"Nancy has been very ill all clay. 1
I have .been quite alarmed abeet 1

`ITISU MARMALADE,
Soar elhing About 'This Familiar
Part of John Bali's '13l'eakfast.
The manufacture of marmalade
and other jams and preserved:
fruits is an important industry in
the United Xiligdom, Fruit jams,
and especially marmalade, are
found upon every British table,
private and public, and are always
served with breakfast andafter-
noon tea. In addition to the vast
home consumption, considerable
quantities are exported. Preeerv-
eel fruits are imported into the
*United States to the value of about
$2,000,000 per annum.
:.Britishmarmalade is produced
from sour oranges and. sugar. The
best known firms use almost exclu-
sively the Seville (Spain) bitter
orange, which has comparatively
little pulp and consists mainly of
rind, the substance most desirable
for the making of good marmalade.
Messina, and Pelermo bitter, or-
anges, although not, considered a.s
geod as those of Seville, are also
used, but command a much lower
price.
Oranges being perishable and
their attractiveness and freshness
continuing for so short a time, the
brokers accept the highest bids
made on the day of sale and never
reserve the fruit for future offer-
ings. The sales are held regularly
on what are known as market days.
The character, quantities, qualities
and nativity of the fruit are evade
known to the trade by catalogue
several days in advance, conse-
quently the -auctions are always
well attended and the bidding is
spirited.
The London Fruit Exchange is
located in the eastern sectionof the
city in a large structure known as
the Monument Building. More than
$12,000,000 per annum is the
amount required to pay for the or-
anges sold in the English market,
the great bulk of the sale being
by public auction.
Apples are sold in like manner,"
the aggregate annual sales averag-
ing in value $10,000;000. The great
Covent Gamlen market, in the heart
of London, buys its supplies of
fruits at the regular auction sales
held at the London exchange, and
in turn the retail . dealers are sup- tacitly seas COIldhSp cv-os evade,. lies'

Corks are rarely if ever used; now
by English jam 'manufacturers. The
jars are invariably eovered with
a vegetable parchment, which not,
only is considered more eleanly but.
keeps the preserve in a better con-
dition. This refers to both jaxit and
marmalade:
Preservers employ their regular
staffs continuously during the year
and pay them the prevailing price
for labor, which 5 to 15 shillings
(1.22 to $3.65) a week for lads and
girls and 3 to 7 shillings (78 cents:
to $1.70) a day for men. Preserv-
ers generally make their own pack-
ing cases. Preserving is taken in
turn by season. When the orange,
season is finished the fruit whose
season follows is taken up, ;ani so'
on till the orange season is again
reached. Pears and similar fruits
are not preserved nor packed in
England, such preserved fruits
coming almost exclusively from
America.
Grind a handful of sunflower -
seeds and give them to the canary.
The birds relish the little tender -
pieces that are found among the
seeds.
