they understood that she was still in the
eye of the law my wife, they said I must
become the recipient. I have sent all
the money to the Magdalene Hospital.
They know nothing whatever about her
present 'residence.'
"Well, of course, if it was her aim to
remain in hiding, she would scarcely
put herself in communication with those
who had known her in her happier
days," says Lady Bassett musingly.
" Butif she is alive she will be working
with her pen. I would know her work

" Ay, in a moment," said Adrian.
` I am beginning to think that is my
only chance now, unless indeed she has
crossed the Atlantic, in which case I
fear all search will prove unavailing."
It looked as if Adrian was right in his
surmise.
Yet again the days went by. Scot-
land Yard's best energies were in full
force, bat no clue to the missing lady
was found. During that time of sus-
pense Sir Adrianforced himself to attend
as usual to his Parliamentary duties, in.

what was going on. It; Ms search.

the ashes of the dead past shoulcd not be

ripened into summer, worn-out pleasure-
hunters longed to exchange gilded sa-
loon and city drawing -room for the wild,
free, heather -scented air, the roaring

glens of the North. Countrie,

The talk was all of the prospects of
the 12th -even the interest of politicians
in Parliamentary matters waned before
the forthcoming holidays.
The early days of August witnessed
the flight of all who were not absolutely
compelled
to remain in town. By the
second week the West End was very
empty, the benches of the House but
thinly occupied,
Sir 1r Adrianever
S ne had no intention
to tion
of leaving London yet, whereat many
marvelled. Many marvelled, too, what
kept Lady Bassett so long in town in
time past she had been the first to leave,
as she was the last to arrive.
On the morning of the tenth a message
Icft at his club summoned Sir Adrian
Severne to Harley street. -
!T
He found herwaiting -
v n� for him imps
tiently, and apparently much excited.
After abrief greeting,, she silently lifted
a book from the table and placed it in
his hands.
"Adrian,, it is hers," she said, " or
else 1 am woefully mistaken."
fie opened and read the words on the
title -page. They were few and inscruta-
ble enough -
cc NEMESIS,
BY -
A WOMAN."
No name, no initial letter even, to give
a clue to the author.
"The title struck me at once, Adrian,"
said Lady Bassett. " But I did not
permit myself to hope till I hadread a
few pages. No pen but Barbara's ever
wrote like that. Thank God your
search is likely to have a successful end
at last."
Adrian Severne turned away a mo-
ment, holding the book closely in his
hand. Dared he believe it ?' Dared he
hope that the light of his life would be
restored to him again ? Dared he dream
of holding his wife to his heart once
Iiiore ?
" I dare not hope, Lady Bassett," he
said, hoarsely. My God, it would be
a terrible disappointment to find you are
mistaken.
I am not, Adrian, she answered, in
clear, undoubting tones. " I would not
have sent for you on a mere supposition.
That book has been written by a woman
who has passed through the very furnace
of mental agony -that woman is your
wife, Adrian. Its very name might bid
you hope."
" 1 may take it, I suppose," he said.
Yes ; it is published, you will see,
by the Messrs. Bretton, of !,elle San
nage Yard. You will go to them at
once."
" At once," he said, and turning, he
wrung her hand like a vice. " If I do
not return, you will know I have found
a elate." _
(To be Continued
Necessary to Marriage.
One evening during a heavy rainstorm
a Ioi:d knock was heard at the door of a
Presbyterian clergyman residing in Har
lent, New York. On answering the
stimaions the minister was confronted
by a young man and woman, the former
of whom, after a` great deal of circum-
locution, informed hire that it was their
mutual wish to be made one, Calling in
his wife and daughter as witnesses, and
waiting until the prospective bride had
dried herself by the fire, for she had ap-
peared in a half -drenched condition, the
clergyman asked the pair to rise and
take each other by the right hand. The
ceremony WAS a little more than half
completed, when the young woman ex-
claimed : " Oh wait a minute. " Re-
treating hastily behind a large rocking
chair, she began fumbling in ber pocket,
and after considerable tugging and pull-
ing produced a pair of white kid slip-
pers. As she seemed to have consider-
able difficulty unlacing her shoes, the
clergyman's wife kindly carne to her as-
sistance, and the exchauge was at length
effected. Meanwhile, the poor bride-
groom's face had changed to all sorts of
cplora from red to purple, and;. when the
pair were finaily inarried, he said to the
minister el sc
Well, boss, to
give yo two dollars ; but seein' you're
so good," with a sly glance at . the min-
ister's wife," I'll give ye three." From
that day to this, the clergyman's wife
has always insisted that the extra dollar
was meant for her.
In the Twilight.
The day is done
Soft as a dream the sunset fades and dies, •
And silent stars amid the dusky skies
Shine one by one.
The shadows wait :
And climbing upward and o'er spires and towers,
Seem drawing softly this dull earth of ours
To Heaven's gate.
We wait the light
With no vain thought of darkness or of dread,
But dreams of peace to weary heart and head,
And slumbers light.
We wait, nor fear
The few short hours of silence or of gloom
Before the eastern hill will blush with bloom,
And morn be near.
My God !' My all ! !
When the dim hour draws near us by Thy grace
To inoet Thy white death -angel face to face,
And hear thy call.
When life lies low -
A gasping shadow by the altar stairs
That leadeth up' from darkness unawares
To Heaven's glow ;
Then let us wait
In faith and trust with prayers and blessings!
fond
And mindful of the morning light beyond -
Before the gate.
Not sore distressed,
But kindly folding life's dull garb away,
Lie down in peace to wait the coining day
And find our rest.
Throwing out Hints.
When a Georgia father found : out
that his son, John was sparking a cer-
tain farmer'sdaughter for a year or
more without settling the question he
called him out behind the stack and
said to him :
" John, do you love Susan Tinker ?"
" 1 guess I do, dad."
" And does she love you'?"
" That's what I dunno, I'm
ask her."
" Well, you'd better throw out a few
hints to -night and find out. It's no use
wearing out boot -loather unless yk u. are
going to marry her."
That night at ten o'clock John carie
home a wreck. His face was all scratch-
ed up, his ear was bleeding, his hat
gone, - and his back was covered with
rnlid..
" John ! John ! What on airth is the
matter ?" exciaimed the old man, laying
down his paper.
" Bin over to Tinker's," was the re-
ply.
And -and
And I threw out a few hints to
Susan."
" VVhat kind o' hints ?"'
" Why, I told her I'd been hoofing
it two miles four nights out of a week
for the last year to set up with her
while she chawed guts and sung through
her nose, and now I reckoned it was
tine for her to brush her teeth and
darn up her stockings, cure the bile on
her chin and tel] the old folks that we
were engaged."
" And her father bounced you ?"
" No, dad, no ; that's where I'nn
consoled
It took the whole 1 gasted
family, including Susan, two hired men
anal
three dogs, and then I wasn't
more'n half licked. I guess we moved,
on em too soon, dad -I guess it wasn't
quite time to throw out hints."

Coming to Pieces.
There are very 'few practical jokes
which injure no
one, and therefore it
behooves us, when we come across those
of a harmless variety, to take our fill of
amusement over them, since there are so
many at which no one ought to laugh.
A certain practical joker once beguiled
the tinge on a railroad journey, in Eng-
land, by stuffing his glove with his hand-
kerchief until it reached the proportions
of a plump hand.
He then arranged it in the front of his
coat so that it should appear to be one
of his own members, and placed his
ticket between its fingers. The train
stopped, and the usual cry, " All tick-
ets ready !" 'was heard.
" Tickets, please," said a guard, open-
ing the door of the carriage.
Take mine," said the joker, and as
the man did so, he took the hand with
it.
"The guard was a robust person," said
the gentleman, in telling his story, "but
he staggered back in a faint;, and called
feebly for smelling salts."
Puritan Names.
The following names are given as

old Puritans in England about the year
1658. They are taken from a jury -list
in Sussex county. They will cause a

enness.
But when they are drunk, they are
not as bad as other people ; whether it
be that they are naturally more good,
or that drunkenness is not the specific
which raises the devil in their ' case.
An American when drunk will swear or
break windows ; an Irishman wants to
fight; but a German is only in good
humor, and insists on doing you some
favor. A party of them when drunk
are the most friendly set that can be
found on the globe. And as a drunken
man is so good in (termany, everybody
is inclined to be good to the drunken
man. As often as one is found on the
street there are found half a dozen" men
to pick him up and carry him along till
he gets home or gets sober. At the
funeral of the politician Waldeck. I
noticed a drunken man who seemed to
have more consideration shown him than
anybody .in the procession, everybody
about him being interested in prevent-
ing him from falling. He himself ap-
peared to be one ofthe moat serious in
the crowd, and his stat o of intoxication,
alth')ugh he could scarcely walk, did.
not seers to the people to be unbecom-
ing the _occasion. Later in the same
procession, I saw six mon . carrying, by
alt fours, another serious mourner. No
policeman in Germany would think of
arresting a man for drunkenness, much
less of putting him in the guard -house ;
it would be their duty rather to prevent
the teams from running over hint..
Drunkenness is in no respect looked
upon as a crime, any more than is the
toothache. And since drunkenness does
not make one mean, it is thought not to
be in any way immoral. It does not
interfere with one's religion as it does
in America. I oucesaw a drunken man
crossing the . great stone bridge at
Prague. He was so drunk that he
could scarcely walk. As lie passed the
large crucifix, where it is customary to
raise one's hat, he did not think of omit-
ting this duty merely because he was
drunk. He tried three tithes to get off
his hat ; and when he finally got it off,
he could not get it on again at all,
When I last saw him, he had yet three
statues of saints to pass ; and I am
'satisfied that before all of them he
staggered through his devotions. I
heard the American Consul at Carlsruhe
say that, he once asked a German
Doctor of Divinty, who was having his
baggage examined, whether - he had
anything Subject to fluty. The divine
,replied : "No ; ' I have nothing but
some theological books and a barrel of
whisky." -Austin 131erbower, in "Over-

"-Hobson's
Choice."
Did you know that thisfamiliar
phrase, Hobson's Choice," preserves the
memory of a very good and useful man?
Thomas Hobson was born in 1554; he
was for sixty years a carrier between
London and Cambridge, conveying to
and from the University, letters and
packages, also passengers. In addition
to his express business, he had a livery
stable and let horses to the University
students. He made it a rule that all
the horses should have, according to
their ability, a proper division of work
and rest. They were -taken out in reg-
ular order, as they stood, beginning
with the one nearest the door. No
choice 'was allowed, and if any man re-
fused to take the animal assigned him
he might go without any. That or
none. Hence the phrase •` Hobson's
qh airs."'
In the spring of 1630, the plague
f)broke out in England. The colleges of
Cambridge were closed, and among the
precautions -taken by the authorities to
avoid infection, Hobson was forbidden
to go to London.
He died in January, 1631, partly it is
said, from 'anxiety and fretting at his
enforced leisure. Hobson was one of.
the wealthiest citizens of Cambridge,
and did much for the benefit of the city
to which he left several. legacies. His
death called forth many poems from
members of the University, officers and
students, among then two by the poet
Milton, then a student at Christ's Col-
lege. -Wide Awake.
No Danger.
Mr. Minks : " My dear, you should
not put coins in your mouth,for diseases
are often caught in that way. I noticed
yesterday that while you were looking
through your pocket -book for small
change to give the street -car conductor,
you placed aquarter between your lips
and held it there."
Mrs. Minks : ". Well, suppose I did ;
where's the harm ?"
" You should read the papers, Mrs.
Minks. Scientists have discovered bac-
teria on silver coins. Do' you know
what terrible things bacteria are ?"
" Not exactly, no." -
" Why, they are little animals which
get into the human system and cause all
sorts of diseases."
Is that all ? Well, then, I am in no
danger from the,money you give me."
" And why not, pray.? "
" You always squeeze a quarter hard
enough to crush all animal life out of it
before you part with it." -Philadelphia
Call.
