BY L. T. MEADE.' CHAPTER VIII. John lept very little that night. He felt his hear in a mo8t enrious flame and flutter.

The dark shades of the mounta' s looked gruesome and dread at this moMent. John felt as if they were a sort of fate -a dreadful portent of disaster, which nazi shutting him in and graspiug his manhoo4l and shaking it to its foundations.

He thought it best to wait outside for Phyllis for he had already noticed that people tead, or seemed to read, his secret in his face. The 1ay was perfect, sisrm and balmy, and pu ctual to the appointed hour, Miss Martindale and, her little companion ap- peared upon the quay. Mies Martindale was in white from head to foot -there was a faint, very faint, pink ti ge in her oheeks -her dark eyes had a sofb expression. As she leant on stout little Sara she looked eweete , happier, and mor child -like than Smith 4iacl ever seen her before.

Mrs. Vincent had engaged a private eitting-room, and phylli and Daisy both came down dressed felt din ner inparticularly festive and becomio toilette Phyllis's dress was of the shade o a blush rose ; Daisy was in blue.

The thing was too happy, too unexpected tp be quite real. 'John had to pinch himself in order to be quite sure that he was not dreaming. After dinner the whole party went inbo the garden. Chineee lanterns were swing- ing gently in the breeze. A band was play- ing a little way off. Phyllis slipped her hand into John's and he felt himself in Mrs. Vincent asked no questions , of any sort. Her niece, Phyllis, was engaged to John Smith, of England, and after the first moment's astonishment, the good, the kind woman, took everything in the beat possible way. She submits to the inevitable," mur- mured John. "Dear little,Phyllis has ; evi- dently exaggerated her unkindness. As far as I oan make out, she seems an admirable woman. What a lucky—what a more than lucky; fellow I am. How delighted my fathee and mother will be when I introduce Phyllis to them. What a sister I ani bring-, ing to the girls.

The application of the principles of palm- istry is simple in the extreme. In the first place'.when classifying a hand as large or emallbe careful to notice whether it is large or mall in proportion to the size of the person. This seems unnecessary adVice, but there is scarcely one beginner in a lundred who does not neglect this preeautio , there- by failing utterly in his conceptiop of the character he ie attempting te read. A LARGE HAND BETTER THAN A SM L ONE* A large ha d is always bettea than a small one. It ndicates a person of some unusual powerfl. The possessor 1 be, good worker, p cipally as to de he will be careful zot to make many P bmises but will keep t e few he makes to the lee - ter, even at a Io3ea to himself; he wiU b easily offended, ery quick to imsgin slighte and not ready 30 forgive either rea or im- agined offences. The possessor of a small hand will at- tempt almost anything, rarely, however, finishing anything he undertakes; is easily satisfied, both w teith himself and th the world in genera ; is fond of -gaiety and ex- citement; mak4a and loses friends'frith the same easiness ; ie impressionable and inflam- mable to a bigdegree; is rehlgio$1�, but not deeply so ; will make prom es and break them wit out compunction, aid will be unable to bin¼1 himself to details.
