liceently President (Emeritus) Eliot,
of Harvard, declared in an address,
"that a woman should bear a child ev-
ery two years from. the age of 24 until
she is 40?" Some of the 'United States

dictating in the matter, and they go so
far as to pointedly aktk if he puts Roose-

An English nobleman recently married
' to the daughter of a New York million-
aire permitted himself to complain of
the vulgar snobbishness of the Ameri-
cana who displayed a morbid and silly
curiosity about the .affair, and ..3f the
peculiar publicity giden it by the papers
in this country. It was all very vnigar
and ridiculous, of course, but vulgarity
must be expected of the mob in this as
in other eountries. It may be said, how-
ever, that the whole affair provoked no
more publicity and no more vulgar cur-
iosity than the parties 'themselves, in-
cluding the noble lord invited and en-
' eouraged.-Detroit Free Pres,s.
And would you hint at privacy in
such a function -eve would. suppose that
is the correct word ? Would you de-
prive the daughter of "American"

lordly cateh ? Draw it mild, neighbor.

The servant askee her to step in, Anil
went and fetched the landlady,
"1 wish to see the rooms, tense," said
the lady, lifting her veil, and elle fol-
lowed the landhuly apatite.
'There were three mains,two lyea.•
rooms and a sitting -room, and the lady
appeared satisfied,

she expleined to Mrs. Reba)); the land-
lady, "My name is Browne, with the iee
please, and 1 era a widow,' and alai
sighed.
'Al' dear tne, so young, too!" mur-
muredMrs. Itobsieu, sympathetically.
Mrs. Browne sighed and ,eeet up her
eyes mournfully,
"I think the rooms will do," she salt,
after discussing the term's. "1 suppose
the house is a quiet one, that there are
no noisy lodgers?"
"Olt, dear, no," said th,e landlady;
"certainly not. There is a gentleman on
the floor below, but he is as quiet as
oan be; there -never was a quieter gen-
tleman."
"I am glad to hear it," said Mrs.
Browne. And what is his name?"
"Royce, ma'am, Mr. Mordatiat Royce,"
said the landlady.
"Royce? Never heard it before. How-
ever, I am gist] to hear that he is quiet,
because I couldn't endure any noise, Yes,
I'll engage the rooms."
Then she paid a month's rent in std.
vanee, and the maid awl the boxes were
brought upstairs.
So it happened that when Mordaunt
Royee entered the house, (titer gaining
Jean's consent to their marriage taking
plaes in e*- fortnight, Mrs, Browne was
ge tting comfortably, settled.
It might have been curiosity on her
part to see what her fellow -lodger was
like, or some other motive peculiar to
the female breast, but it happened, that
Mordaunt Royce came up the stairs,
Mrs, Browne softly opened the door of
her room, and, leaning over the balus-
trade, watched him,- with pale face and
glittering eyes.
And it was certainly a singular fact
tbat the face was remarkably like that
of Mies Mazurka, late of the Royal Cor-
onet Theatre.
CHAPTER XXXV.
Of all the lodgers that ever existed,
Mrs. Browne, who had taken the apart-
ments above Mordaunt Royee's rooms in
Mount street, was quietest and gave the
least trouble.
In feet, she was more like e. mouse
than a human being Mrs. Robson, the
le.ndlady, declared, and scarcely v.entured
to ring a bell. If she went out she al-
ways waited at the top of her landing
to see that there was no one in the ball
below, and always wore the thick black
eil which completely obscured her feat-
ures. No letters ever came for her and
no visitors called upon her.
Mrs. Robson, who was .13 curious as
most people of her class, !tried to find
out something about her from the maid,
but failed ignominiously.
The maid was as quiet and discreet as
her mistress, arid presented a perfecily
dry well which yielded nothing whatever
Lo Mrs. Robson's pumping. Her mistrest
was a widow and rich, and was fond of
travelling. That wa3 all the maid could
or would say, and the landlady could
get nothing more out of her.
Mrs. Browne's room was exactly over
the sitting -room of Mordaunt Royce,
and she could hear him moving about
beneath, and knew when he came in and
went Out.
He, too, was very quiet, and Mrs.
Browne found that what Mrs. Robson,
the landlady, had said was quite true,
and that he did not in the least disterb
her.
On the first evening of her tenancy,
Mrs„ Browee entered her eitting-roem,
and,. having locked her door, opened a
ettpboatd, in a recese by the fireplace,
arid, • taking some tools from a bag,
neatly removed a eettple of feet of
the floor boarding, leaving nothing be.
tWeen her and the room beneath butbut
the thin substance of ceiling.
Having down that, Mrs. -Browne, ale
erwise Miss Mazurka, made herself a
cup of tea and quietly sat herself down
to listen.
If there is anything a woman loves
ns a pastime better than another it is
unearthing a mystery, and Miss Mazur-
ka had resolutely determined to solve
the mystery which enveloped the girl
who had fled from Lewd Stuart Villiers,
and who, though he thought her dead,
Miss Mazurka was cotivinced was the
Ida Trevelyan for from whom Mordaunt
Royee had cruelly deserted her.
Her love for Mordaunt. Royce had
turned to hate, stteli hate as only a wo-
man deserted for a rivet can feel for the
man who has slighted her.
And she had something more than her
hate to pronipt her.
She had leaned to love. Stuart Vil-
liers with a love whieit only a woman
can feel,
She knew that her love was .hopeless,
but its hopelessuess hed not slain, but
purified it. Stuart Villiers had trusted
her with the story of his life's sorrow,
and she mild, from her love for him,
repay him for his confleente while she
revenged liereerf upon her former lover,
Mordaunt Itoyee.

"Why haye tam tome here?" demand

"Bemuse it wasn't. safe for you to

man. "People are gettineedeurious. You

In your own den, my boy! Comfort-
able, eh?" he grinned, looking around;
"ciente the fine gentleman, books, and
pictures, and statoos! Lor, who'd think
that pielced you out of the gutter
when you were running about bare-
footed in the mud, and selling cigar
lights?"
"Who indeed?" (mkt Royce, wieh a
touch of impatience in his voice. "But
never mind that. What do you want?"
"Just a little talk about businees, my
dear boy! Hel he! Quite right, Royce;
make your hay while the sun shines.
Pluck your pigeon while he's got' a
feather left! Ah, Royce, you're clever,
but I taught you I taught youl"
"Well, well," said Royce impatiently,
"what is it you want me to do now?"
"I want you to drive him a little fur-
ther ,into the net, my dear boy. I've
got mortgages on some of his property,
but I want a hola upon Dewsbury it -
licit. A little more present.° will drive
him to pledging it. and I want you to
press him, Royce.' The old man's voice
grew so hard and grating, so cruel and
merciless, that Miss Mazurka, listening,
shuddered and clenehed her teeth.
"I understand," said Royce, after a
inoment. "But don't be in too great a
hurry. I Imee won lame sums from him
of late. I cannot always 'Win, and 1
cannot always force him to play. Do
you want to kill the goose with the
golden eggs?"
"Not till it'd got no more eggs to lay,
my dear boy," chuckled the old man.
"But I'm impatient, Royce," he whined.
"I must have the Detvsbury eetates."
"And you will get it without doubt,"
said Royee, coldly. "He cannot escape
you; you need not be afraid. What
else?"
There was a moment's silence, as if
old Craddock heaitated; then Miss Ma -
mirk°, heard hitt say:
"About the mituey you've won, my
boy; you must be a rich man! What
have you done with it?"
Royce flushed for a moraent, then he
laughed.
"Given it to the Church Missionary
Society. What does it matter to you
what I have done with it? You gain
your end, leave the rest alone."
"Well, well," muttered the old man,
deprecatingly, "I don't interfere with
you; but I hope you're not wasting it,
my boy. heard—"
"Well, what do you hear?" dent:Laded
Royce. curtly.
"1. hear that you are dangling after
one of those actress women. Now, my
boy, that's foolishness! They'll bleed
you to death! They'll take all the
limey you have worked eo hard for,
and have cheated so cleverly—"
"Hush!" hissed Royce, angrily, "Walls
have ears."
A smile of triumph lit up Miss Ma-
zurka's face as she listened.
"That's true in this case, Mr. Mor -
daunt Royce!" she murmured, as she
leant forward eagerly.
Old Craddock laughed.
"The door's locked. There's no one
listening, and we on speak out, you
and I, my boy! Give up that actress,
Royee-do now!"
"I'll see," said Royce. "What else?
Is there any news of Stuart Villiers?"
Ohl Craddock threw up Ids hands.
"Stuart Villiers? Royee, my boy, he's
out of his mind! He's at that gambling
place, Monte Carlo, and losing a fortune
a day -a fortune a dayl I've sent Ilan
thousands and thousands!"

"He's squandering the money that
ought to have been ours if that foolish
girl, Joan Ormsby, hadn't gone and
drowned. herself."
"What is the use of going back upon
that?" said Royce, with a laugh.
"She's drowned', and there's an end of
it. Besides, we never found the will,
you know."
"Yes, I know," said Craddock, with a
groan. "But it is somewhere about. it
would have turned up. There was old
.Arrowfield's letter to Stuart Villiers,
saying that he had made a will. Oh,

"And -and this ectress- this what

"Oh, yes, if you like," said leoyee,

THE USUAL ROLE,

Charles Schwab, in a recent
view in New York, pointed out
folly of ignorant speculation,
"The average man. with no knowl-
edge of finance," he said, "has no bust-
nees to speculate. Let him do so and
his case is Jones' all over again.
"Jones stopped in at a gargage one

asked the agent,
"'Neither,' said Jones gruffly. 'I Was

Miss Mazurka's heart beat fast with
excitement and curiosity, but sho was
too far away to decipher a word of the
paper. It looked to her like a legal do-

Suddenly Royce folded the document
and threat it back in his breast pocket,
and looked up all unconsciously to the
ceiling, from which the unseen spy was

"Poor told Craddock!" he muttered.
"Give up Ida Trevelyant-he might as
well advise me to give up Lord Arrow -
field's two millions!"
And low as the words were spoken,
Miss Mazurka heard them.
Now, Miss Mazurka was -by no menus
a clever wormer. If Emily had heard the
conversation between Royce and old
Craddock she would have jumped to the
solution of the problem in an Institut;
but Miss Mazurka ;vas for tt time only
bewildered and puzzled.
That Craddock and Royce had plan-
ned some echeme of villainy she was
convinced, and that scheme had evident-
ly failed in consequence of the supposed
death of Joan Ormsby.,
She knew that Joan Ormsby was no
other than Ida Trevelyan; but did Mor -
daunt Royce know it?
She sat and pondered in deep abstrac.
tion for half an hour, and then sudden-
ly the whole thing flashed upon her,
Ida Trevelyan was Joan Ormsby, and
Joan Ormsby was the heiress of the Ar-
rowfield estate by the will which Mar -
daunt Royce had said. could not be
found, but which Miss Mazurka now
felt convinced she had seen hirn reading
after old Craddoek left.
Joan Ormsby was in utter ignoratice
of her relationship to the Earl of Ar-
rowfield and of the 'existence of the will,
and Mordaunt Royce would keep her in
ignorance until he married her and had
beeome the master of the estates.

"CRIMINAL MATCHES."
A Single One of the Friction Variety
Caused a $300,000 Fire,
"Among the many iueendieries de.
straying the property of the American
°nation," says Louis S. Amonson in In
surance, Engineering, "none is mere ac-
tive than the 'criminal' friction match.
In Harrisburg, Pa., a short time ago, a
friction match dropped on the floor of
the cellar, was stepped upon, and result-
ed in a property lose of nearly 000,000.
"Had this been a safety match instead
of a 'criminal' matck no fire would have
occurred. In many up-to-date European
countries the 'criminal' match which
ignites on anything is outlawed and
safety matches are required to be used

the Union would save to the public and
to the insurance companies millions of
dollars annually. Three hundred thou-
sand dollare is a high price to pay for
one match, and friction matches are pm,
chased every day in the year on that
basis.
"The property loss resulting from the
'eriminal' match unfortunately is only a
small part of the damage done. Thou-
sands,of lives are lost; a whole array
has been learned to death from the use
or friction matches. Wrenen with their
flimsy gowns are often the victims of
matches. that ignite from being stepped
on. The universal use of eafetly matches
would save thousands of lives and mil-
lions of dollars worth of property.
"Sefety matches cannot be ignited by
rats or mice, by being stepped on, by
packages or boxes falling on the floor or
which 'criminal' matches at present de-
stroy life and property. If every pub-
lic spirited citizen, including agents,
nutnagers, insurance conuuiesioners and
the press, would enlist in this cause it
would mean increaeed safety for life and
property. The 'criminal' match should
be legislated out of existence in every
State of the Union."
