old utas. 110 has never kited any of
them before, except once or twice (:e -
cilia on some return of his from the An-
tipodes, and because she seemed to ex-
pect it.
"She tt,i sitting up the moment be-
fore; the aur.,.• %as holding her propped
up --she :said elle a as so timet of lying.
She had been quite laughing, the Hulse
suid."
":Melees! laughing," corrects Sybilla,
%•h.; Ito: forgotten to lite down upon her
sofa, nnd is sitting 'on a hard chair like
any one else.
"Quite laughing," continues Cecilia, "at
her own arm for being so thin. She had
pushed up her sleeve to kale at it, and
had said something—something quite
funny, only the rare could not remem-
ber the exact words—and then, all in a
minute, she called out, in quite an d-
iem! voice, 'The salts 1 Quick ! Quick'.'
and her heard pit fell back, and she was
gene!"
"end she had nut hid une of us good-
% I ye :" cries Sybilla, breaking into a loud
tt :ul,
There comes a dreadful and incongru-
ous flash of that ridiculous, which is the
underlying all our tragedies, across
Jim's mind at this inment. The going,
":eking no fare'.tel1,' naturally scorns to
Sybilla the nest terrii.l,• feuture on the
whole case, to iter who has so repeatedly
taken heart-rending last f+trew'ells of her
fancily.
"\\'ho would ever have thought that I
should have survived her?" pursues Sy -
fella, still sobbing noisily, and without
the Inst allempt at. self-control. Cecilia,
who is sitting w illi her head on her arms
resting on the table, lifts her tear -blur-
red face and nnswetss this apostrophe in
a voice de -Ate' with weeping.
"Jim always did; he always said that
you would set' us all out."
Again that dreadful impulse towards
mirth assails Burgoyne. Is it possible
that, nt such an hour, he can feel a
temptation to lough out loud? But, later
again, This horrible mood passes; later,
„hen they have all grown more Coe.
p s d, when their tears run more gen-
tly. when their voices are less suffo-
cated, and they are telling each other
little anecdotes of her, aiding each
other's memories to recall hall -effaced
trails of her homely kindness. of her
noiseless self -denials, of her deep still
piety.
'!'hey bring out iter photographs,
mourning over there being so few, and
such old and long -ago ones. 'There are
efligies by the dozen of Cecilia, and even
touching presentments of Sybilla

bed ; but it had never occurred to any

Jim ILstens, occasionally putting in a
low word or Iwo, when appealed to to
confirm or correct the details of some
little story about her. itut it seems to
him as if his nnguish only begins when
the stream of their reminiscences, turns
into the ehnnnel of her love for hire.
"Oh. Jilin. she was fond of you! \\'e

CIIAPTI:B XXXI,
Time has stepped upon another year;
not much mere than stepped, since that
year's first month is not yet out ; and
Burgoyne has stepped upoir another con-
tinent before we again rejoin him. There
are few, if any of us, who, In the course
of our lives, have not had occasion to
wish that certain spaces in !hose lives
might bo represented by the convenient
asterisks that cover them in books; but
this is unfortunately hnpossikile to Jim,
as to the test of us; and he has fought
through each minute and its minuteful
of pain (happily no minute can contain
two minutefuLs) during the seven months
that have elapsed since we parted front
him. At first those minutes hold no-
thing but pain ; he could not tell you
which of them it was that first admitted
within its little compass any alien in-
gredient; and he was shocked and re-
morseful when he discovered that any
such existed. But that did not alter the
facie Ile has not sold his guns; on tho
contrary', he has bought two new ones,
and he has visited his old friends, the
Rockies. Since Amelia's funeral—im-
mediately after which he again quitted
England—ho has seen no member of his
dead betrothed's family, nor has he held
any intercourse, beyond the exchange of
an infrequent letter. with Mrs. Ityng or
tier son. From the thought of both these
hitter he shrinks, with a distaste equal
in degree, though inspired by different
causes : from Mrs. Ilyng, because he
knows that she was aware of his weari-
ness of his poor loco ---that poor love
whom, had ice but known 11, tie had so
:horn it time to be weary of ; and poor
Byng, because, despite the ocean of sor-
row, of remorse, of death that rolls in its
hopelessness between hint and her, he
cannot even yet think, without n bitter
pang, of the woman who had Inspired
rho young man's hysterical tears and
sincere. though silly, suicidal impulses.
Jim took That pang with hire to the
Rockies, stinging, even through the
overlying load of his other nnd acknow-
ledged burden of repentant ache and
loss, and he had brought it back with
Kinn. Ile packs it into his portmanteau
as much as 4, matter of course as he does
his shirt -.—in fact more so, for he has
once inadvertently left his shirts behind,
but the pang never.
it is the 20th day of January; here,
in England, the most consistently detes-
table month ed the year. The good Jan-
uary's of a British octogenarian's life
might be counted upon the thumbs of
that oclogennrinn's hands. The favored
inhabitants of London hawo breakfasted

s' elabie iw„s and (titres, who had
(keen together in chat, tell plainly that
earlier in the they it had been (restudied,
and that several people had been sitting

der, addressed to the landlord of lits
London lodgings. It does not lake him

of the window before leaving the roue.
flow quickly the dark has fallen 1 The
empty chairs show indistinct outlines,
and the heavy green trees have turned
black. But the terrace is no longer quite
empty- A footfall sounds—coming
slowly along it. One of tho waiters, no
doubt, sent to fetch in the chairs; but
ne ! an overworked Swiss wailer, hur-
ried by electric bells, and with an iuuni-
nent swollen tattle d'tole upon his bur-
dened mind, never paced so slowly, nor
did anything reale ever step so lightly.
1t must bo a woman ; and even now
her white gown makes a patch of light
upon the dark background of the quickly
oncoming night. A white gown on the
201h of January! Again that pleasing
sense of the ludicrous tickles his fancy.
She must be one of the persons who
lately occupied the empty chairs, and
have come in search of some object left
behind. Ile recollects having noticed an
open book lying on the low patapet.
She has a white gown ; but what more
can bo predicted of her in this owl -light?
Tho radianoe from the candle behind him
makes a small illuminated square upon
the terrace, falling between the bars of
the window through which the Moorish
ladies once darted their dark and in-
effectual ogles.
(laving apparently accomplished her
errand. the white -gowned figure oblig-
ingly steps into the illumined square,
and still more obligingly lifts her face
and looks directly up at him. 11 is clear
that the action is dictated only by the
impulse which prompts all seeing crea-
ture to turn lightwave s, and no gleam
of recognition kindles in the eyes that
are averted almost as soon as directed
towards him. Placed ns tie is. with his
back to the light, his own mother could
not have distinguished his features;
and, after her one careless glance. the
white -gowned lady turns away and dis-
appears again into the. gloom. She has
one more oasis of light to Traverse be-
fore she reaches the hotel porch, just
discernible, gleaming in its whitewash,
at the far end of the terrace; just one
more lit a lades' throws its chequerevl .
lustre on the tiles. He presses his face!
against the bars of his own lattice. nnd
holds his breath Witil she has reached
and crossed that tell-tale patch. !ler

LiVE STOCK NOTES.
11 frequently occurs That horses go off
their food without any apparent rea-
son. In'such cases their usual appetite
may often be easily restored by the
simple plan of omitting one et their
usual feeds nt grain.
Trouble with the teeth Ls frequently
the cause of horses temporarily losing
their appetite and not feeding properly,
and an examination of the lee 111 should,
therefore, always be made when a horse
is off his food and no mason can Le

It your horse begins to hang his
tongue out of his mouth when driving,
have the teeth examined. The trouble
is usually caused by sore teeth. Attend
tc it or it may become n habit, and to

so cause this habit.
