tween Norwood, Anerly and Forest Hill,
Long before there had been a thought of a,
ownship there, when the metropolis was
still quite a distant thing, old Mr, Williams
had inhabited " The Brambles," as the
little house was called, and had owned all
the fields about it. Six or eight such
cottages scattered over a rolling country
side were all the houees to be found there
in the days when the century was young.
From afar, when the breeze came from the
north, the drill, low roar of the great city
might be heard, like the breaking of the
tide of life, while along the horizon
might be seen the dim curtain of smoke.
the grim spray which that tide threw up,
, Clradually, however, as the years passed,
the oity had tgrown out a long briok-feelee
here and there, curving, extending and coal -
ming, until at last the little cottages had
been gripped around by these red tentacles,
and had been absorbed to make room for
the modern villa,. Field by field the eetate
of old Mr. Williams had been sold to
the speculative builder, and had borne rich
crops of snug suburban dwellings,arranged
in curving crescents and tree -lined avenues.
The father had passed away before his
cottage was entirely brioked around, but
his two daughters, to whom the property
had descended,lived to see the last vestige
of country taken from them. For years
they had clung to the one field whioh faced
their windows, and it was only after much
argument and many heart-burnings that
they had at last consented that it should
share the fate of the others. A broad road
waa driven through their quiet domain, the
quarter was renamed "The Wilderness,"
and three square, staring, uncompromising
villas began to sprout up on the other side
With sore hearts the two shy little old
maids watched their steady progress, and
speculated as to what fashion of neighbors
chance would bring into the little nook
vehioh had always been their own.
And at last they were all three finished,
wooden balconies and overhanging eavee
had been added to them, so that, in the
language of the advertisement, there were

At four o'clock on the next day the two
maiden ladies set off upon their hospitable
errand, In their stiff, oraokling dresses of
black silk with jet -bespangled jackets,
and little rows of cylindrical gray curio
drooping down ou either gide of their
black boanets, they looked like two old
fashion -plates whioh had wandered off into
the wrong decade. Half curious and half
fearful they knocked at the door of number
three, which was instantly opened by a
red-headed page•boy.
Yes, Mrs, Westmaootb was at home,
He ushered them into the front room,
where in spite of the fine spring weather a
large fire was burning in the grate. The
boy took their cards, and then, as they sat
down together upon a settee, he set their
nerves in a thrill by darting behind a cur-
tain with a shrill cry, and prodding at

" It wants to get at Eliza," said the
youth, in a confidential whisper. "Master

He smiled affably at the two little stiff
black figures, and departed in search of his
mistress.
"What—.what did he say ?" grasped
Bertha.
"Something about a—Oh, goodness
gracious 1 Oh, help ! help ! help ! help 1"
The two sisters had bounded onto the
settee, and stood there with staring eyes
and skirts gathered in, while they filled the
whole house with their yells. Out of a high
wickerwork basket which stood by the hre
there had risen a flat, diamond-shaped
head with wicked green eyes which came
flickering upward, waving gently from side
to side, until a foot or more of glossy, bogy
neck was visible. Slowly the vicious head
came floating up, while at every oscillation
a fresh burst of shrieks came from the
settee.
" What in the name of mischief ?" cried
a voice, and there was the mistress of the
house standing in tha doorway. Her gaze
at first had merely taken in the face that
two strangers were standing screaming
upon her red plush sofa. A glance at the
firenlace, however, showed her the cause
of Chet terror, and she burst into a hearty
fit of laughter.
" Charley," she shouted, " here's Eliza
misbehaving again."
" I'll settle her," answered a masculine
voice, and the young man dashed into the
room. He had a brown horse oloth in his
hand, which he threw over the basket,
making it fast with a piece ot twine so as
to effectually imprison its inmate, while
his aunt ran across to reassure her visitors.
"Its only a rock snake," she explained.
" Oh, Bertha!" "Oh, Monies. 1" gasped
the poor exhausted gentlewomen.
" She's hatching out some eggs. That
is why we have the fire. Eliza always does

and I are rather too old.fashioned to

" Yes, we have one or two other visits

CHAPTER, III,
DWELLERS IN THE WILDERNESS.
How deeply are our 'destinies influenced
by the most trilling causes I Had the
unknown builder who erected and owned
these new villas contented himself by sim-
ply building each within its own grounds,
it is probable that these three small groups
of people would have remained hardly
conecions of one another's existence, and
that there would have been no opportunity
for that action aed reaction which is here
set forth. But there was a common link
to bind them together. To single himself
out from all other Norwood builders, the
landlord had devised and laid out& common
litwnwennis ground, which stretched be-
hind the houses with tamtstretched net,
green close -cropped award, and widespread
whitewashed lines. Hither in search of
that hard exercise which is as necessary as
air or food to the English temperament
came young Hay Denver when released
from the toil of the city. Hither, too,
came Dr. Walker and his tWo fair daugh-
ters, Clara and Ida, and hither, also cham•
pions of the lawn, came the short -skirted,
muscular widow and her athletic nephew.
Ere the Summer was gone they knew each
other in this quietnook as they might have
done after years of a stiffer and more
formal acquaintance.
And especially to the admiral and the
doctor were this closer intimany and
companionship of value. .Each had a, void
in his lifo, as every man must have who
with nnexhausted strength steps out of the
great race, but each by his society might
help to fill up that ot his neighbor. It is
true that they had not much in common,
but that is sometimes an aid rather than a
bar to friendship. Each had been an
enthusiast in his profession, and had
retained all his interest in it. The doctor
still read from cover to cover his Lancet
and his Medical Journal, attended all
professional gatherings, worked himself
into an alternate state of exaltation and
depression over the results of the eleotion
of officers, and reserved for himself a Pen
of his own, in which, before rows of
little round bottles full of glycerine,
Canadian balsam, and straining agents, he
still cut sections with a microtome and
peeped through his long, old-fashioned
microscope at the arcane of nature. With
his typical face, clean shaven on Hp and hin,
with a firm mouth, a strong jaw, a steady
eye and two little white fluffs of whiskers,
he could never be taken for anything but
what he was—a high-olass British med-
ical consultant of the age of fifty, or
perhaps just a year or two older.
The doctor, in his heyday, had been cool
over great things, but now, in his retirement
he was fussy over trifles, The man who
had operated without the quiver of a fin-
ger, when not only his patient's life but his
own reputation and future were at stake,
was now shaken to the soul by a mislaid
book or a careless maid. He remarked it
himself, and knew the reason. " When
Mary was alive," he would say, "she stood
between me and the little troubles. I
could brace myself for the big ones. Aly
girls are as good as girls can be, but who
can know a man as his wife knows him ?"
Then his memory would conjure up a tufe
of brown hair and a single white thin hand
over a coverlet, and he would feel, as we
have all felt, that if we do not live and
know each other after death, ehen indeed
we are bricked and betrayed by all the
highest hope e and subtlest intuitions of
our nature.
The doctor had his compensations to
make up for his less. The great scales of
Fate had been held on a level for him ;
for where in all great London could
one find two sweeter girls, mpre
more intelligent, and more sympethetio
than Clara and Ida Walker? So bright
were they, so quick, so interested in all
vehieh interested hint, that if it were pos.
sible for a man to be compeneated for the
lose of a good wife; then Balthazar Walker
might olaim to be so.
Clara was tall ancl thin and supple, with
a graceful, womanly figure. There veae
something stately and distinguished in her
oarriage—"queenly" her friends her,
while her entice desoribed her as reserved
and d latest t.
Snell as it was, however,it was part And
paroel of herself, for she was, and had,
always from her ohildhood been, different
from any one aeound her. There was
nothing gregarious in her nature. She
thought with her own mind, saw
with her own eyes, acted from her
own iinpulse. Her face was pale, strik•
ing rather than pretty, but with two
great dark eyes so earnestly questioning,so
quiok in their transitions from joy to path.
os, so swift in eheir oomment upon
every word and .deed around her, thab
those eyes alone were to many ' more
attractive than all the beauty of her
younger sister. Her was a strong, quiet
soul, and ib was her firm hand which
had taken over the duties of her mother,
had ordered the house, restrained the ser-
vants, comforted her father and upheld
her weaker sister from the day of that
great misfortune.
Ida Walker was a hand' e breadth smaller
than Clara, but was a little fuller in the
face and plumper in the figure. She had
light yellow hair, mischievous blue ayes
with the light of humor ever twinkliug in
their depths, and a large, perfeotly formed
mouth, with that; slight upward curve of
the corners which goes with the keen awe -
elation of fun, suggesting even in repose
that a latent smile is ever lurkingt a the
edges of the lips. She was modern to the
soles of her dainty little high -heeled shoes,
frankly fond of dress and of pleasure, de-
voted to tennis and to comic opera,delight-
ed with A dance, which came her way only
too seldom, longieg ever for some new ex-
citement, and yet behind all this lighter
side of her character a thoroughly good,
healthy minded English girl, the life and
soul of the house'and the idol of her sister
and her father. Such wee the family at num-
ber two. A peep into the remaining villa,
and our introductions are complete.
Admiral Hay Denver did not belong
to the florid, white-haired, hearty school
of sea -dogs which is more common in works
of fiction than in the navy list. On the
contrary, he was the representative of a
much more common type, which is the
antithesis of the conventional sailor. He
was a thin, hard -featured man, with an
ascetic, aquiline cast of face, grizzled and
hollow-cheeked, clean-shaven, with the
exception of the tiniest curved promontory
of ash- celored whisker. An observer
accustomed to classify men might have pat,
him down as a cannon of the church with a
taste for lay costume and a country life, or
as the master of a large public school, who
joined his scholars in their outdoor sports.
His lips were firm, his chin prominent, he
had a hard, dry eye, and his manner was
precise and formal. Forty years of stern
discipline had made him reserved and an-
ent. Yet, when at his ease with an equal,
he couldreadily assume a, less quarter-deck
style, and he had a fund of little, dry
stories of the world and its ways which
were of interest from one who had seen as
many phases of life. Dry and spare, ao
lean as a jockey and tough as whipcord,
he might be seen any day swinging his
silver•headed Malacoa cane, and peeing
along the suburban roads with the same
measured gait with whicili he had been
wont to tread the poop of his fie.gship. He
wore a good service strip upon his cheek,
for on one side it was pitted and scarred
where a spurt of gravel knocked up by a
round -shot had struok him thirty years

gun battery. Yet he was hale and sound,
and though he was fifteen years senior to
his friend the doctor, he might have
passed as the younger man.

HISTORIC ENGLISH PAUPERS
Are Given an Excursion by Their Gener-
ous Ben erectors.
Lastyear, for the first time, the aged in-
firm and disehled inmates of the Camberwell
Workhouse, near London, went for a day
at the seaside to Bognor, and so successful
was the excursion that this year it was
renewed.
As the chairinaw and guardians and
master put it in their circular, the "mono.
ony ot workhouse life" was thus broken
for one day in the year, and the poor old
people whose horizon is more or less bound-
ed for 361 days by walls and gates at East
Dulwich were able on the 365th day to get
a glimpse of the wide, wide world outside.
Bognor is not a place of maddening ex.
eitement ; but, visited in a special train,
with the brass band of Sutton schools and
hampers of meal pies, bottled beer, Straw-
berries and tobacco, it no doubt suggested
a, scene of wild dissipation to the reclueee
of Camberwell.
REVELLED LIKE YOUNG BACON ANALIANS.
The Town Hall of Bognor was plated at
the disposal of the invaders, and there the
dinner was discussed,the toasts were drunk,
and gratifying contributions to the fund
were announced. Then came excursions
inland in pair -horse brakes,excursions along
the sea -front, donkey rides unhesitatingly
undertaken by ancient inmates. Indoors
Dale's troupe of negro minstrels entertain-
ed those who preferred music and repose.
The day was glorious, the sea air fresh and
invigorating, and the entire excursion was
successful even beyond anticipations.
Among the excursionists were Sally,"
who has been in Camberwell Workhouse
since 1848, and Signor Sparkena, who was
ring clown at Astley's with the famous
Ducrow in 1850, and none enjoyed himself
or herself more than these frail links with
the past, or looked forward with more
confidence to the next outing at Bognor, or
elsewhere.
