CHAPTER X V.
THE PLOT THICKENS.
” It looks formidable," said Mra. L'Est•
range, "perhaps you ' had batter read it
with me." Nora came behind her step-
mother and read as follows :
" Dear Mrs. L'Estrange,—I a dress my:
self to you rather than Nora, becauee I
naturally consider you the more responsible
of the two for the present disas roue state
of affairs. :
"1 can scarcely say how dOeply hurt,
and, I may say exasperated, 1 fe 1 by your,
and Nora's, want of oonBid�ratioria,nd- good
faith toward both Clifford a d myself.
You especially were fully aware (at least I
made no effoin to conceal it) of mily wish that.
Clifford should marry Mrs, luthven, a
women whom I like personally, nd whoae
fortune was of the last importa;ce to my
brother. He, too—so far as I ould see—
was pleased with the idea, and quite suffi•
Mealy attached to the lady to make things
smooth and feasible. With this admirable
arrangement Nora ohose, for the indulgence
of idle vanity in the first plaoe, I believe;
to interfere, by getting up a feolish flirt.

In the most deliberate manner, and with
your knowledge, till my brother the moot

is now unable to extricate him elf. Had
Nora any true sense of honor anc4 duty, she
would have checked Clifford, have commit -
ed me, have done anything rathe than drag
us all into a position of such dif oulty and
disgrace, for I see that Mrs. Rut ven is de-
termined to take some steps, which will, no
doubt, cover U8 with confusion.
, •
"'I shall only add, that if yoi. and Alan
L'Estrange think for a moment her uniou
with Clifford IVIaraden will scour her hap-
piness, you are profoundly mist ken. He
will never make a good husband to anyone ;
he will never be true to any wo an. M rs.

she could find comfort in the substantiel
advantages of her post On ; but ora, if at

Nora, white as a sheet, took th offensive
letter and re -perused it in silence.
- " Lady Dorrington must have ecu out of
her mind when she wrote that," said Mrs,
L'Estrangeindignantly. "She l'ttle knows
the true state of the case."
" It is very cruel and unjust," aid Nora,
in low, unsteady tones. " It is to bad to,
be accused of dishonorable schemi g to win
a man from whom I would give t e world to
be free." .
" My dear Nora, de not allow your anger
against Lady Dorrington to mak s you use -

" I don't know." Nora's lips trembled
as she spoke. " I seem acting adly and

" Is that all ?"in a tone of relief, as he

Nora took the letter from her pocket and
crave it to him. She could hardly stand, so
deep was her agitation. She sunk into a
chair near which Ole. stood, and watched
Marsden while he read.
His hoe expreesed no great emotion ; a
slightly contemptuous look,, an occoadonal
frown that was all.

Nora began to feel indignant at his tone.

"Then save your misery and my unhap-

DETECTION.
Despite his �o.1 indifference te the opin-
ions and interes s of others,- Marsden felt
that he should e as well pleas d that his
interview with I re. Ruthven wft a over. It
is true that she seemed a mere frivolous,
.fanciful trifler, uch taken up wiith the out-
side of things ; int instinct,ratht r than any
deliberate thou ht, impressed hi n with the
conviction that eneath her pret y draperies

this, his suprem good luck had delivere

of one bdrn in- the purple, there was a
under -tone of animalism in her tastes and

that fidelity to a husband would be with her
very much a mather of accident, though he
did her the justiee to believe that she would
always keep up appearances.
In fact, she wee an admirably composed
morsel of Paris paste, excellently set and
pleasant to the fete, until placed beside a
brilliant of the pitrest water, like Nora.
However, the visit had to be paid, so
Marsden made a careful toilet, and set out
to keep his appointment.
It was some tithe since they had met, in-
eed, since thole encounter in Paris the
previous spring, ehey had not been so long
apart.
Mrs. Ruthven Was fully dressed in black
silk and velvet,: with a handkerchief of
creamy lace knotted round her nick, and a
dainty cap of the same on her thick, short
hair. Her costume seemed to indieate that
the business in hand was ttoo serions for the
easy negligence of a mornieg gown.
Marsden thought her looking better than
he had ever seen her before. The debility
and languor of , slow convalescience had
spiritualized her expression, and given more
refinement to her movements, He could
even understand how some men might think
e
her charming, a charming toy. Where was
something unusual too, in the *neatness
with which she looked into his eyes, some-
thing pained and reproachful in tae expres-
,
sion of her own.
"3 hope she is rot going to midpb a scene,"
thought Marsden, as he greeted her cori-
ally. : •

Mr. Willi& -Gray, of Newmarket, Tells

Mr. Willi m Gray, who is well and fav-

A reporter • f the Express called upon him
for the purpose of obtaining pacticulars of

simply tort ring. At times the trouble was -
seated in m knees, then in my hips. For
nearly a yea I suffered along, working as
beet I could in the hope of being able to
overcome th disease. Dering the day the
pain was les severe, but at night it was just

"It. gives me great pleasure to indorser

He Looked Hungry.
William M. Beans, who went to the -
United States Senate with the reputation of
being as good a lawyer as the State of New
York possessed, was an exceedingly slender
man. His face, even'when he was in his prime,
had a look of emaciation which suggested
hunger, and long afterward the Senator
used to relate with amusement a comment
made upon his appearance soon after hie
entrance on his dueies at the Capitol.
One day, says Mr. George S. Hilton, in a
recent volume, a solid, substantial looking
farmer, from the interior . of New York,
seated himself in the visitors' gallery in the
Senate Chamber, teed asked the door -keeper,
standing behind him, to point out Mr.
Everts.
It was noontime, and only a few member*
were in the chamber. Pretty soon Senator
Voorhees entered, and strode majestically to
his seat.
" Is that Everts t" exclaimed the farmer.
" No," said the door -keeper, " that is Mr.
Voorhees, of Indiana."
Another gentlemen with a great deal of
presence entered the Senate Chamber, The
cld man leaned back and clutched the door.

"That's him 1" lee whispered. " That's
the great Mr. Everts, isn't it ?"
"No," wa$ the &newer. "That is General
Logan."
At length/ Mr. Everts came in, and the
old farmer was at ;once informed. He look-
ed at the distinguished lawyer long and
earnestly.
" By gum I" said he, with an accent of
commiseration. "Pll bet he boards."

The Val e of Time.
Franklin not only underetood the value of
time, but he put a price on it that made
others appreeiate its worth.
A customer who cense one day to his little
bookstore in Philadelphia, not being satisfied with the price demanded by the clerk
for the book he wished to purchase, asked
for the proprietor, "Mr, Franklin is very
usy just now in the pressroom," replied
elerk. The man, however, who had already
spent an hour aimlessly turning over books,
insisted on seeing him. In anewer to the
clerk's summone, Mr. Franklin hurried out
from the newspaper establishment at the
back of the store.
"What is the lowest price you can take
for this book, sir ?" asked the leisurely cus-
tomer holding up the volume. 64 Ono dol-
lar and a quarter," was the prompt reply.
"A dollar and a quarter 1 Why, your clerk
asked me only a dollar just now," "True,
said Franklin, " and I could have better af-
forded to take a dollar than to leave my
work."
The man who seemed to be in doubt as to
whether lir. Franklin was in earnest, said
jokingly : "Well, come now, tell me your
lowest price for this book," "One dollar
and a half," was the grave reply, " Yes,
and I could have better taken that pries
then than a dollar and a half now,"
Without another word, the crestfallen
purchaser laid the money on the counter
and left the store. He had learned not that
he who squanders hie own time is foolish,
but that he who wastes the time of others
Is a thief.

Ants With Umbrellas.
The doings of ants are among the most in-
teresting things that naturalists find to
study. No members bf the insect world
present more startling suggestions of intelli-
gence and forethought governing their ac-
tions. It is not correct, however, to explain
the habits and -conduct of ante by human
analogies. For instance it was "once sup -
poised that the so-called " parasol ants,'
living in hot tropical countries, carried little
leaves above their heads for the sake of pro.
tection from the sun. Later investigations
have shown that the ants actually do carry
leaves, suspended by the stem which they
hold in their jaws, and that columns of them
thus furnished with leaves like an army with
banners march in regular order; but that
the leaves, instead of being intended to
shelter the ants from the sunshine, are dee
posited by them around their nests to form
a soil in which grows a kind of fungus that
they are fond of. So the parasol ant is not
a dandy, but a farmer.
