I have heard so much abunt it that I would fain to have a true report thereof from your own augot lips," As she spoke she darted a missiiiev nus glance at her cousin, who replied to it by a glance as significant. The gouty old earl did not, however, see the irony of the remark, but answered poinp011sly, bowing law on his cane : "1t would scarce be pot-ib'.e to find a pari: so lovely as that of your honor- ed father, Lndy Isabel.

Yet I trust that at 1)e distant day, the Lady Ieabel will allow me to give her a right to al• ter and improve it wherever she thinks necessary."
