Then one a blessed year of peace and domestio- ity, to be followed by nine yore, with only a, three -months break, five upon the Paoifieetation, and four upon the East Indian. After that was respite in the shape of five years in. Channel Squadron, with periodical runs home, and then again he was off to the elediterraues,n for three yeare and to Halifax for four, Now, at last, however, this old married couple, who were still almost strangers to eaoh other, had come together in Norwood, where if their short day had been check- ered and broken, the evening at leitet promised to be sweet and mellow. In person Mrs. Hey Denver was tall and stout, with a bright, round, ruddy•oheeked face, still pretty, with a graoious, matronly comeliness, Her whole life was a round of devotion and of love NV hioh was divided between her hueleand and. .her only son, Harold. The son it was who kept them, in the neighborhood of London, for the Admiral was as fond of ships and of salt water as ever, e.nd was as happy iu the sheets of a two -ton yacht as on the bridge ot his sixbeen-knot monitor. Had he been untied, the Devonshire or Hampshire coast would certainly have been his choice. There vre.s Harold, however, and Harold's interests were their chief care. Harold was four. and-twentynow. Three years before he had been taken in hand by an acquaintance of his father, the head of a considerable firni of stockbrokers, and fairly launched upon 'Change. His three hundred guinea, en- trance fee paid, bis three sureties of five hundred pounds each found, hie name ap- proved by the committee, and all other formalities complied with he found hirnself whirling round, an insignificant unit, in the vortex of the money market ot the world. There, under the guidance of his father's friend, he was instructed in the mysteries of bulling and of bearing, the strange usages of 'Change in the intricacies of carrying over and of transferring. He learned to know where to place his clients' money, which of the jobbers would make a price in New Zealands, and which would touch nothing but American rails, which might be treated and which ehunned. All this, and much more, he mastered, and to catch purpose that he soon began to prosper, and to retain the clients who had been recommended to him, and to attract fresh ones. But the work was never congenial, He had inherited from his father the love of the air of heaven, his affection for a manly and natural existence. To ace as middleman between the pursuer of wealth and the wealth which he pursued, or to stand as a human barometer, registering the rise and fall of the great mammon pressure in the markets, was not the work for which Providence had placed those broad shoulders and strong limbs upon his well -knit frame. His dark, open face, too, with his straight, Grecian nose, well -opened, brown 'eyes, and round, black -curled head, were all those of a man who was fashioned for active physical work. Meanwhile, he was popular with his fellow - brokers, respected by his clients, and beloved at home ; but his spirit was restless within him, and his mind chafed unceasing- ly against his surroundings. "Do you know, Willy," said Mrs. Hay Denver one evening as she stood behind her husband's chair, with her hand upon his shoulder, "1 think sometimes that Harold is not quite happy." "He looks happy, the young rascal," answered the Admiral, pointing with his cigar. It was after dinner, and through the open French window of the dining - room a clear view was to be had of the tennis court and the players. A set had just been finished, and young Charles Westmacott was hitting up the balls as high as he could send them in the mid- dle of the ground. Dr. Walker and Mrs. Westrnacott were pacing up aud down the lawn, the lady waving her racket as ehe emphasized her remarks, and the doctor listening with slanting head and little nods of agreement. Against the rails at the near end Harold was leaning in his flannels talking to the two sisters, who stood listening to him with their long dark shadows streaming down the lawn behind them. The girls were dressed alike in dark skirts, with light pink tennis blouses and pink bands on their straw hate, so that as they stood with the soft red of setting sun bingeing their faces Clara, demure end quiet, Ida mischievous and daring, it was a group which might have pleased the eye of a more exacting critic than the old "Yes, he looks happy, mother," he re - putted, with a chuckle. "It is not so long ago since it was you and I who were stand- ing like that, and 1 don't remember that we were very unhappy, either. It was croquet in our time, and the ladies had not reefed in their skirts quite so taut. What year would it be? Just before the com- mission of the '4 Penelope.' sr Mrs. Hay Denver ran her fingers through his grizzled hair. It was when you OMR back in the 'Antelope,' just before you got -your step." Ah, the old 'Antelope 1' What a clipper she was 1 She could Emil tvvo points nearer the wind than anything of her tonnage in the service. You remember her, mother. You saw her come into Piymouth Bay. Wasn't she a, beauty ? ' t' Good evening, Mr. Hay Denver," stid he and he raised his broad !straw hat. " Meet I come in "Good evening, doctor. Prey do." " Try °fie at these," said the Minitel "She was indeed, dear. But when I say that I think that Harold is not happy, I mean in his daily life. Has it never struck you how thoughtful he is at times, and how Agent -minded ?" "In love, perhaps, the young dog. He seems to have found snug moorings now, at any rate." I think that it 18 very likely thee you are righb, Willy," answered the mother seriously. "But which of them ?" I oannot tell." "Well, they are very charming girls, both of them. But as long as he hangs in the wind 'between the two ib cannot be serious. After all, the boy is four -and - twenty, and he made five hundred pound* last year. He is better able to marry than I was when I was lieutenant," "3. think that we can see which it is now," remarked bhe observant mother. Charles Westmacobt had ceased to knock the amnia balls about, and was ahatting with Clare Walker, while Ida and Harold Denver were still talking by the railing with little burstof laughter. Presently It fresh set woe formed, and. Dr. Welker, the odd Man oat, Same through the Welled gate and strolled up bite garden Walk, holding out hie cigar ease. " They aro not bad. I gat them ou the Mosquito (meet. I was thinking of signalling to you, but you seemed so very happy out there." " Mrs. Westmacott is a clever woman." said the doctor, lighting the cigar. " By the way, you spoke about the Mosquito coast just now. Did you see much of the hyla wherayou were out there ?" "No such name on the list," answered the seaman with decision. There's the 'Hydra,' a }tuber defence turree-ship, but she never leaves the home waters." The doctor laughed. "We live in two separate worlds," said he. " The hyla is thel ittle green tree frog, and Beale hag founded some of his views on protoplasm upon the appearanoe of itsnerve cells. It is a subject in which I take an interest." "There were vermin of all sorts in the woods. When I have been on river service I have beard it at night like the engine room when you are on the measured mile, You oan't sleep for the piping, and croak. ing, and °limping. Great Scott 1 what a woman that 1 She was across the lawn in three jumps. She would have made a cap - teen of the foretop in the old days." "She is a very remarkable woman." "A very cranky one." " A very sensible one in some thilags," remarked Mrs. Hay Denver. "Look at that, now!" oried the Admiral, with a lunge of his forefinger at; the doctor. "You mark my words, Walker, if we don't look out, that woman will raise a mutiny with her preaching. Here's my wife dis. affected already, and your girls will be no better. We must combine mem, or there's an and of all discipline." "No doubt she is a little excessive in her views," said the doctor, "but in the main I think as she does.", "Brava, doctor 1" cried the lady. "What, turned traitor to your sex•I We'll court-martial you as a deserter." "She is quite right. The professions are still far too much circumseribed in their employments. They are a f eeble folk, the women who have to work for their bread— poor, unorganized, timid, taking as a favor what they might demand as a right. That is why their case is not more constantly before the public, for if their cry for redrafts was as great as their grievance, it would fill the world to the exclusion of all others. Ie is all very well for us tu be courteous to the rich, the refined, those to whom life is already made easy. It is a mere form, a trick of manner. If we are truly courteous, wesball stoop to lift up struggling woman. hood when she really needs our help—when it is life and death to'her whether she has it or not. And then to cant about it being unwomanly to work in the higher profes- none. It is womanly enough to starve,but unwomanly to use the brains which God has gieen them. Is it not: a monstrous contention 1" The Admiral chuckled. " You are like one of these phonographs, Walker," said he ; " You have had all this talked into you and now you are reelimg it off again. It's rank mutiny, every word of it, for man has his duties and woman has here, but they are as separate as their natures are. I suppose that we shall have a woman hoist- ing her pennant on the flagship presently, and taking command of the Channel Squa- dron." " Well, you have a woman on the throne taking command of the whole natione'le- marked his wife "and everybody is agreed that she does it better than any of the men." The Admiral was somewhat staggered by this home-thinst. " That's quite an- other thing," said he. " You should come to their next meet- ing. I arn to take the chair. I have jusb promised Mrs. Weetmaoott that I will do so. But 18 1168 turned chilly, and it is time that the girls were indoors. Good -night. I shall look out for you after breakfast for our constitutional, Admiral." The old sailor looked after his friend with a twinkle in his eyes. " How old is he mother ?" "About fifty, I think." "And tars. Westmacoth ?" "1 heard Dime she was forty-three." The admiral rubbed his hands and shook with amusement. " We'll find one of these days that three and two make one," said he. "1,11 bet you a new bonnet on it, mother." CHAPTER IV, A SISTER'S SECRET. "Tell me, Miss. Walker. You know how things should be. What would you say was a good profession for a young man of twenty-six who has no education worth speaking about, and who is not very quick by nature ?" The speaker was Charles Westmacott, and the time this same Summer evening in the tennis ground, though the shadows had fallen now and the game had been abandoned. The girl glanced up at him, amused and surprised. " Do you mean yourself 1" Precisely. "But how could I tell ?" "1 have no one to advise me. I believe that you could do it better than any one. I feel confidence in your opin- ion." "It is very flattering." She glanced up again at his earnest, questioning bele, with its Saxon eyes and drooping flaxen mustache in some doubt ae to whether he might be joking. On the contrary, all his attenbion seemed to be concentrated upon her an - sever. "It depends so much upon what you can do, you know, I do not know you suffice dentist to be able to say what natural gifts you have."

"Oh, if that goes for anything, I can put epee, hundred -pound bar till further orders; bug what sort of a sailing is that ?" Same little joke about being called to the bar flickered up in Miss Walker's mind, but her companion was in ouch obvious earreet that she stifled down her inclination to laugh. "I can do eemile on the cinder track in 4:50 and across country in. 5:20, but, hoW is that to help me 1 I might be a cricket, professional, but it is not a very dignified position, Not; Mutt I care a straw about dignity, you know, but / should not like to hurt the old lady's feelings," Your annt's ?"

" Don't tell my aunt that I said it he sunk his voioe to a whisper--" I hate 13rowniug." Oiltra Walker rippled off into suoh a merry peal of laughter that he forget the evil things which he had suffered from the poet, and Wyse out laughing too, " I can't make him out," said he. " I try, but he is one too many. No doubt ib is very stupid of me ; I don't deny it. Bub as long as I cannot there is no use pretending that I can.

She might form new ties, and then I should be a third wheel in the coach. It was all very well MS long as I was only a boy, when her first husband was alive.' "But, good gracious, you don't mean to say that Mrs. Westmacott is going to marry again ?" gasped Clara. The young man glanced down at her with a question in his eyes. "Oh, it is only 'a remote possibility, you know," said he. "Still, of course, it might happen, and I should like to know whe.b I ought to turn my hand to." "1 wish I could help you," said Clara. "Bub I really know very little about such father, who knows a very great deal of the world." However, I could talk to my th "I wish you would. I should be so glad if you would," "Then I certainly will. And now I must say good night? Mr. Westmacintt, for papa will be wondering where I am." " Good night, Miss Walker." He pulled off his flannel cap and stalked away through the gathering darkness. Clara had imagined that they had been the last on the lawn, but, looking baok from the stepseystifeh led up to the French windows, she saw two dark figures moving across towards the house. As they came nearer she could distinguish that they were Harold Denver and her sister Ida. The murmur of voices rose up to her ears, and then the musical little child -like laugh which she knew so well. "1 am so delighted," she heard her sister say. "So pleased and proud. I had no idea of it. Your words were euob a surprise and a joy to me. Oh, lam so glad 1" " Is that you, Ida ?" "Oh, there is Clara. I must go in, Mr. Denver. Good -night. There was a few whispered word, a laughter from Ida, and a "Good -night, Miss Walker," out of the darkness. Clara took her sister's hand, and they passed together through the long,foleing window. The doctor had gone into his stettly, and the dining -room was empty. A single small red lamp upon the sideboard was reflected tenfold. by the plate about it and the mahogany beneath it, though its single wick oast but a feeble light into the large, dimly -shadowed room. Ida danced offto the big centred lainp,but Clara put her hand upon her arm. "1 rather like thie quiet light," said she. "Why should we not bave a chat ?" She eat in the doctor's large, red plush chair, and her sister ouddled down upon the foot- atool at her feet, glancing up at her elder with a smile upon her lips and a mischiev- ous gleam in her eyes. There was a shade of anxiety in Clara's face, which cleared away as she gazed into her sister's frank blue eyes, "Have you anything to tell me, dear ?" she asked. , Ida gave a little pout and slung of her shoulder. " The solicitor -general then opened the case for the prosecution" said she. "You are going to cross-examine me, Clara, so don't deny it. I do wish you would have that gray satin foulard of yours *done up. With a little trimming and a new white vest it would look as good as new, and it is really very dowdy." "You were quite late upon the lawn," said the inexorable Clara, "Yea, I WAS, rather. So were you. Have you anything to tell nte?" She broke ay/eye into her merry, musical laugh. "1 was chatbing with Mr. Westmacott." "And I was chatting with Mr. Denver. By the way, Clara, now tell me truly, what do you think of Mr. Denver? Do you like him? Honestly, now itree I like him very much indeed. I think that he is one of the moat genblemanly, modest, manly young men that I have ever known, So now, dear, have you nothing to tell me ?° Clara smoothed down her sister's golden hair with a motherly ges- ture, and stooped her face to catch the expected confidence. She could wish nothing better than that Ida should be the wife of Harold Denver, and from the words which she had overheard as they left the lawn that evening, she could not doubt tit at.there was some understanding between them. But there came no confession from Ida. lily the same mischievous smile and amused gleam in her deep blue eyes, " Thee gray foulard dress "—elle began. "Oh, you Mete tease 1 Come, now, will ask you what you have just asked me. Do treelike Harold Denver ?" "Oh, heel a darling 1" "Ida 1" "Well, you asked me.

She must not be allowed to ven- ture too far without; help in those dangerous waters. Sonia understanding bhere was between her and Harold Denver. et In her heart of hearts Clara, like every good woman, was a match -maker, and already she had chosen Denver, of all men, as the one to whom she could most safely confide. He had talked to her more than once on the serious topics of life, on his aspirations, on what a, man could do to leave the world better for hie presence. She knew that he was a man of noble nature, high minded and earnest. And yet he did not like this secrecy, this disinclination upon.the part of one so frank e.nd honest as Ida te tell her what was passing. She would wait, and if she gob the opportunity next day she would lead Harohneenver himself on to this topics. It was possible that she might learn front him what her sister had refused to tell her. • (To BE 0011I8ITED.) DEATH ON THE WHEEL. Over -Exertion Is One or the Dangers of the Foolish Beginners. Within a week or two several men have died at the end of long bicycle trips. That iirgues nothing against the wheel. A man with a weak heart or a weak system • should be as chary of hard exercise with his hands or arms as with his legs. Men have died of exerbion in walking, in ewim- ming, in climbing, in de,noing, in singing, in eating, Nobody would caution um against these practices because one person in a couple of million had found them fatal There is an ever-preeent temptation in wheeling to overdo. The delight in skim- ming over a good•road is so keen that the traveller goes further than he intended to at the outset. He gives no thought to distance, he hears the birds in the trees "iethe tinkle of brooks across the stones, he inhales the fragrance of clover and honeysuckle and new -mown hay, he bared his brow to the breeze that is made by the progress of his machine, and he finds ;tetty in the smooth, easy, graceful motion of the wheel. Presently he discovers that he is fifteen, twenty, thirty miles from home, and that his dinner will be ready in two hours, says the Brooklyn Eagle. Then, with NC17SCLES ALREADY STRAINED and the best of the ride over, Impute about and labours at a speed he is not dispoeed for, something of worre being added to the •week, and arrives home in a fagged condi. tion. Wen a man is liglitly dressed, has. a liget wheel, and has gradually acquired facility in its managementhe can do things that a man who rides only for pleasure cannot do. The difference in weight be - (ween a racing wheel and a "roadeterns slight when' one lifts the two, but it tells severely on the muscles in a day's run. When the man on the heavy wheel, or the unpracticed man, attempts to keep np with a trained man on a light wheel he is in the same position of the fat man who tries to run with an athlete. His strength is soon exhausted, and in time be must succumb to the strain, There is too much fast cunning on our roads. Too many young men ride, nob for the incidental pleasures of tbe [verb, the scenery, the pure air, the coolness, the adventures by the nay, the swim in the secluded pond, the lunch ata hosteley, the long loaf on the grass in the shade of willows, and all tne other attrac'sions of an outing, but for. • T}JE MERE EXERCISE, and the desire to outdo some other owner of a wheel. They bend over their handle bars, head down, seeing only the dust be-. neat them, and pump away incessantly, often puffing and sweating in a way that they would think most injurious 11 18 were incidental to the weeding of corn and the sawing of wood. The result cannot but be injurians where physical strength is taxed steadily or fitfully, beyond the nornaal power of the individual to put it forth. 'The remedy in castle of obviously weak musoles and weak hearts and weak lunge is to go at a moderate pace, undertaklug no high speeds and no long distances., By gradually increasing apeed and distance the strength and staying power will be in- -tieased, to besure, but freaks of running should be discountenanced. It would not be a bad idea for every one who thinks of taking to the wheel to consult a physician and find outaiow far he could indulge in the sport with safety. An Island Lake With Tides. • Russian scientists have lately been study- ing the curious island of Kildine, off the coast of Russian Lapland, and separated from it by a narrow strait. This island has a lake that has no visible connection with he sea, but is affected by tidal move. mettle. To be sure the tides in the lake rise rine fall only a few inches while those in the surrounding tea rise and fall several feet. The periodicity of the lake tides make it plain that, the lake has a subterranean communication with the sta. The water on the island is of three kinds, fresh water from rains and from brooks at the highest poiets ; a little lower, salt water like that of the sea ; at the lowest point sea water surcharged wibh free sulphuretted- hydro- gen. The fresh water Is inhabited by the animal life usual in the fresh water of that region.
