than ever now that he was delivered of
his burden.
For a rnoinent or two Hope felt stun-
ned. She could neither move nor speak.
Then she began gently feeling herself to
ascertain if she was much hurt.
A sharp pain went through the foot
which had been already injured. She
had come down on it with great force.
She could not attempt to stand, on it,
nor to move from her ignominious posi-

CHAPTER XIV.
Markham was feeling rather dull. Ile
was a sociable fellow as a rule, always
ready to forget himself and to Make
matters agreeable to others. Notwith-
standing his ugliness, he was a very pop -
Mat peoson, and Grey was quite right
when he said that girls found him tas-
cinating. He was a clever, man, a don
at Oxford, and when he chose to exert
his powers hecould exhibit very brilli-
ant qualities.
He was a man without any home ties
-he had no near relatives. From his
earliest days he had lived among'stran-
gers'and this fact perhaps gave him a
kid outward coldness, and a manner
which eould at times be sarcastic and al --
most disagreeable. In reality Mark -
barn had a great deal of passion and ten-
erness in his nature, and he had an
ideal hope which was more to him than
to most. Some day he should Meet a
girl who would bring to him the sacred-
ness of home and the warmth of love.
This hope be buried in his heart, for
though he faseinated niost girls, no one
could accuse him of falling in love with

The Night After Christraas
'Twas the night after Chrisimas,
And all over the house `1! •
Things were turned topsy-turver,
To suit even a mouse. t
Santa Claus had been gone '
A whole night and a day,
And things never go right
When the landlord's away:
Mrs. Santa was mend ink -
Mr. Santa Claus' hose,
For the climbing of roofs
Is very hard upon clothes. _
The two little Sautes
Were down on the floor
With one eye on their blocks
And one eye on the door:
Just then as they watched,
Very closely, the latch,
, They heard a great noise
Overhead on the thatch.
A tramping and stamping
:And rattle and clatter- •
' And the two little Santas
Knew just what was the matter.
s •
Papa Santa was come,
And he soreetanee forgot
*
And sought his own house-

If be ever can tell,
Tili he lands Aowil below,
What quarter he's in,
I'm sure I don't know.
any.
Girl a thereL were in plenty who
thought Dick Markham the most de-
lightful of mortals, who adored his
ugly face, his divine voice'and his big,
rather ungainly figure. But none of
all these girls, in appearance at least,
had touched even the surface of 'his
heart..
" What's the matter, Markham ?" said
Gray, on this particular afternoon.
" You look quite moped, old man: Why
aren't .you with the Hietans ? Those
girls ere perfectly wild to hear your ex-
planation of the Hinder) puzzle."
"They must grow still wilder," said
Markham. " I'm not in the humor to
gratify them.
"Look here," said Grey, "-we ought
to be starting home soon; it will be
dark directly. Mrs. Chatterton wants
me to help her to collect a number of
her party. Do you mind looking after
Hope Karron ? I left her sitting on a
batik up that road. 'She said she would,
join the Chattertone after she Was rest-
ed, but I don't see her with them. Look
her up, Dick, will you?" -
"She, won't be obliged to you for
sending me to her aid,' said parkham
smiling. "She has taken- a prejudice
against me. Oh, of course I'll go. Up
that road, did you say?"
He sauntered away, not so unwilling-
ly as his slow steps seemed to indicate.
It wa-s true that Hope both interetted
and irritated him. See reminded him
of a certain face, a certain yoke. No
one could have accused Markham's rug-
ged features of assuming w pathetic,
even a sentimental expression, but as
he thought not of Hope, but of another
his deeply set brown eyes wore an ex-
pression both of longing and tenderness
his whole face softened with a light
which even his nearest and dearest
friends had never seen on it.
As he walked up the road he met the
groom who had helped to mount Hope
on Rossiter.
"El you Own°, sir," he said, "you
have heard about the 'oea! The young
lady said as she'd explain."
" What ?" said Markham. " Ildon't
understand. I gave you directions that
Miss Karron should ride Jenny home,
and I wciuld take Rossiter myself."
" The young lady said as inhe'd ex-
- plain, sir. She came up all in atehn rry
Iike, and said she must have Rossiter at
once. She wouldn't. look, at the other
'oas, sir. She said she wanted to get
back to Beeches all in a hurry, and she's
off on Rossiter half an hour ago. I of -
e ferret to ride behind her on Jenny, sir,
but she woUldn't listen to me."
" Is it possible !" said Markham.
Ali the pleased look left his , face. It
grew hard and grim.
"Saddle the fleetest horse you have,"
he said. "Bring him to me this minute.
wait here. Don't waste time star-
ing. Go, bring the horse."
1` Black Bees, sir ?"
"Black anything that has got four
- legs, and knows how to canter. Go."
The groom disappeared.
"Mr. Markham's real gone on that
young lady." he said to himself. But a
dint idea of the rashness of his own act
in yielding to Hope entered his mind,
and put wings to his feet. Black Bess -
was saddled, and. a moment later Mark-
ham was tearing along the road. Whet
possessed that headstrong girl? If Roe-
siter were dangerous coining out, he
would be worse returning, Even then
Hope could scarcely bold him in. What
chance had. she when his stable,his oats,
his warm marsh, awaited him Mark-
ham felt inclined to blame everybody
and everything. 'What a fool he was
not to have sold the horsewhen he part-
ed with the groom!
"Just a sentiment, too," he muttered
to himself -nes he let Black Bess feel a
touch of his whip; "just because the
creature's eyes overcame me, and
he oily showed his submisaive and
gentle aide to me. Already the
brute has nearly killed that girl.
Now of course be has made an
end of her. That girl, too, with eyes
like -like -and a voice which reminds
me -ah, what a wretch I feel !"
Black Bess was a fleet, good-temper-
ed little horse, but she was a little small
for Markham's weight, and she did not
like the pressure which he brought to
tear on her. Suddenly, he pulled her
up so short that she reared in affright
and almost fell backwards. His prac-
tised eye saw the freshly dug -up turf
where Rossiter had turned aside to pur-
sue the by-path home.

My First Cigar.
The time had come in our boyhood
which we thought -demanded of us a ca-
pacity ,to smoke. The old people of the,
household could,,abide neither the -sight
nor the smell 'of the Virginia weed.
When ministers came there, not by posi--
tive injunction, but by a sort of instinet
as to what would be safest, they whiff-
ed their pipe on the back step. If the
hare could not stand sanctified smoke,
you may know how' little chance there
was for adolescent cigar -puffing.
By some rare good fortune which put
in our hands three cents; we found
access to the tobacco store. As the lid

I "The you will !"‘xeleimed the

" Who is he?" replied a detective
when asked about the man. "Well,

He Suprised Eliza.
John Roberts, of North East, Pa..,is a
farmerwelltenough to do, but he had al-
ways been eccentric about his clothes.
Until a week or 80 ago he had not been
knowntobuya new suit of clothes for two
years. The ones he wore had been so
often patched and 're -patched that no
bit of the original Warp and woof was
visible.
This personal slovenliness outthe part
of her husband Was a source of constant
annoyance to Mrs. Roberts, who is a
woman of exceptional neatness. She
„long ago became so ashamed of his ap-
Pearence, that she would no longer ac-
company hint to town to do her trading.
This laiingitlar characteristic of the
farmer was- not due to penuriousness,
for he is a liberal man in his dealings.
A few days ago he went to town to do
a little trading, and, to the utter aston-
ishment of the town, he -purchased a
w suit of clothing for himself. His
new clothes were done up in a package,
and he placed the package on the wagon
seat beside him when he started home
;that night. Farmer Roberts had gone
half way home when a brilliant idea
struck him. He stopped his horses on a
bridge where the road crosses the east
branch. '
"I'll do it, by gum !" he eaid. "I'll
do it and su'prise Eliz.",
Thereupon the farmer rose up in the,
wagon and began t4 take off the )atched-
and re -patched clothes- he had worn to
long. As he removed a garment he
tossed itei into the creekrountil he had
tossed them all in and/ he had nothing
on but his shirt. •
