There was plenty of time afforded to ad- mire the scenery, and how beautiful it was ! Even Mabels mind was won for a brief space from the anxiety which engrossed it, by the wonders of the way. Hill and vale were flooded by the peaceful moonbeams ; the quiet homesteads, the silent woods, the broad fair river, winding blue and cold in the distance, seemed cast mto a magic trance. Immediately before her—so large that it seemed quite close—stood up the noblest castle ever reared by man, the Lome of Eng- lish kings for centuries, the pride and glory of the land, now bathed in feiry nrl•="u urs, There was a seat- "'•- y eatery garden which seta spectacle, at which he t,.. Ler was never tired of gazing. She bad sat there with him many an evening, as a child, and he had pointed out to her - its stately towers, and given the picturesque story of each to her eager ears. He could not have been more proud of the - castle had he been the Queen herself who lived there. He had a reverence for it, such as is rarely found among men of his class for similiar objects. Country parsons are not, as a rule, historical enthusiasts, nor was Mr, Denham an exception from them, save in this ono instance. Next to his child- ren, and his dog, and his gun, he loved the castle with its grand old memories and rich traditions. It was the one romantic, nay, perhaps, the one spiritual feature of his character : the ""eternities" and "im- mensities" were too much for him ; his mind did not grapple with thein, unless those two simple sermons of his per week - could be said. to do so. He believed in the creed he taught without much searching for the faith that was in him. He did his duty in a sense which was not a high-flown one. He was ""respected" by his farmers, and "be- loved" (as the phrase goes when we speak of parsons and their flock) by the poor.

"My dearest child, your father's seizure —I mean this second attack, was so sudden, and just as he had seemed to be getting so much better to. He had been so earnest against your stay at Shingleton being cur- tailed upon his account, that I dal not dare to write upon my own responsibility. Coyne, dear, cone; let me see you settled in your own room. Dr. Bowen is going to stay the night here; and everything is provided. for." As the two ladies crossed the hall a strange sound caught Mabel's ear ; and a flash of memory at once recalled to her Richard's story about the haunted bath -room and its suffocated inmate. a S t What noise is tiiartha. A door was softly closed above -stairs, and the noise sensed. "I heard nothing," returned the other : "you must not keep listening for every little sound. It is fatigue and worry that makes you nervous ; and by -the -bye, you must need some refreshment. 11 you can't eat solid food, I must bring you an egg beaten up in wine." Murtha did so, and saw her young charge into bed before she left the room. "Are you not going to bed, Martha?" ask- ed she humbly ; for she was accustomed to be taken in hand by this ancient relative. "Not at present, my child. I have one or two things to see to. Good -night dearest." Martha waited in the passage, shading the candle mechanically with her hands and listening. The sound that Mabel had heard in the hall now seemed to fill the whole house. It was the stertorous breathing of one in an apoplexy. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Without waiting to have this question a1- swered, Martha opened tile -drawing -rood door, and led the unresisting Mabel in. rb the little round table, usually bespread wi books or fancy -work, was seated a thin gray haired gentleman, examining by the light o a readings -lamp a mass of law papers. B rose at the entrance of the ladies, and saint ed Mabel on the forehead. Mr. Bampton wai an old friend of her father's ; she had seer him from time to time at the vicarage fon! many years ; he had a solemn, careworn ab at all times, but had never looked so gray and sad as now. " I am very sorry, clear Miss Mabel, t find you in such trouble. I had heard noth ing of your good father's illness, but cam: down to see him 011 a business matter, whic did not admit of delay. These papers, how ever, have nothing to do with that. When ever I come into the country among you idl> people, I always bring my work with me, and it is fortunate i have done so now, sine it seems the dear rector will not be able t. see me till to -morrow -if even then." " He will not be able to speak of business to -morrow, I am quite sure," observe Martha Barr authoritatively. " Well, well, we shall hear what tlh: doctor says," returned the lawye smiling.—"" Mistress Barr here sets u all to rights, you see, Miss May, as usual.

" Not at present, not at present, Mistress\ Barr," answered lie, in the same low tones " is always time enough to tell the sort of news that I am the bearer of—and besidess we aro not sure of the worst—let us wait at least for the doctor.

There is no point in house decoratkn where so much individual taste may 1 e shown as in drapery. The curtains of a de'i- cate room recently furnished in silvery blue tones were an example of the use of the simplest materials with excellent effect. '11 e body of the curtains was composed of creamy Bolton sheeting, simply hemmed, and finish- ed on one edge with white tassels set on at intervals, and tied with pale blue. A nine - inch band of blue silk finished the curtains at top and bottom. Large, circular figures in whorls and concentric rings were embroid- ered across carelessly on the upper part of the curtain near the edge and running on the upper blue band, and the curtains were suspended from slender poles of brass by a second frieze eighteen inches wide, formed of open fish -net in natural color. One of the daintiest shear draperies for cottage windows is embroidered on tamboured muslin. This comes by the yard in narrow width for sash curtains, at from 20 cents upward. Sash curtains by the pair are $L50 upward. Em- broidered muslin curtains in regular width begin at $5; at the same price a tamboured lace curtain may be bought. Dotted and striped Swiss muslins for curtains are 20 cents a yard in thirty -six-inch width. India silk draperies in thirty -one -inch width are 85 to 95 cents a yard. "Silkoline," an excel- lent imitation of silk drapery, is 15 cents a yard ; and cotton Madras musllns are found in a variety of colors and patterns at 12 cents. The newest portiere hangings in plain Turkoman goods, with deep tassels failing over the top fold for a dado, are $10 a pair. They are found in solid rose, terra-cotta, peacock blues, gold pale olive, and other shades. A plain velours or jute tapestry portiere with silken finish is $14. Drop Shots. Important to women=men.

How noble should be our action, how faithful our thought, how restrained and true our speech ! When we think of how many characters we shall form a part. how strongly should we build our own! When we thins. of our immortality in men, how eagerly should we labour to be worthy of that immortality! Being dead, you will speak—what sort will be your speeoh? Your works will follow you— ask yourself what kind of works will follow you. To die, and know that men, when they think of you, will be gayer, truer, more loving, more pitiful, more God's children—that would make death's face look kind. To die, and know that when men think of you no inspiration will arise, but only the memory of gloom, or hatred, or falsehood, or pitilessness -that makes death terrible. Be otherwise. Let your works follow you with inspiring power. Speak from the grave to comfort, kindle and redeem.—Stopford Brooke. Death's Worst Terrors, Bliffers (to his beat girl)—"The worst about the death of poor Whiffers is that compromising letters were found in his pockets. I should hate' awfully to have such a thing happen to me."
