The calm bravery with which she said it, or clear gray eyes never flinching for a moment or her voice wavering, was truly admirable.

"Ala, but then' it, was 'different." "How was it different ?" the girl demanded, ded, flashing her eyes upon him. "I have no mother to guide 1ne, Frame; but I have a right to an explanation. 'I always welcomed you here whenever you chose to come ; you had no right to drop the privilege without telling me why. Has it never struck you that you offended me? Is a girl to accept that which 1L main has the right to resent? I have my proper pride, but it sloes not prompt me to bear this in silence." Frank Holmes stood up, pale. "Mary," he said, "I am afraid, grievously afraid there has been a mistake somewhere: I alt not able tothink it out, now, But 1 will tell you what your father wanted me for that it evening." He related ' to her in a few words, as deli- atelyces he had the skill. to bit* The alone fast, he read his papers all the day -at least he stayed in his room—and in the evening he went out—as I supposed, to dinner, as usual —andnever came leack Shoe.

Since 1:161 the amount of coinage made by the British Mint for the colonies has steadily decreased, while the anoint procured by contract with private lints has steadily atilt Iargely in- creased. In fact, this question has really assumed proportions of great economical importance.

The Biggest Cat's -eve in the World, A Ceylon paper gives an account ot the finding of the largest cat's-eye of which there is any record by a digger of Galle, Ceylon. It weighs nearly seven pounds. The filler was a malt who had been very poor. A few months ago, however, his digging for gems was rewarded by finding a cat's-eyewhich he sold for $5,000. • Soon after he dug up another, for which lie realized $10,000, and then his rim of luck reached a climax when he un- earthed his large stone, which is described as of perfect lustre. He had been offered £19,000 by a syndicate of local dealers, but hasrefused, as he declares he can cut the gem into forty stones, each of which will bring 1;1,000. A short time ago he also found a larger cat's-eye than this big one, but the ray was imperfect, so that itis not more than one-quarter as valuable. His total findings in one-half year, at the lowest estimate, will reach $15,000. A Question -of Relative Values, "John ! John ! Wake up I ' "What is the natter, Maria ?"
