. These two telegrarcal ,were °oil the

di.d. not wish to anticipate the pang
with which the proud old man must

The old man looked up ,at the face
of the mother with 0 silent plea for

murmured a promise, to cherish .• the,

He • was • net the reserved, stern
alan of only three months .before.
Ever since the departure of Guy ho
had been softening, and after the re-
ceipt. of the first 'telegram there..had
come into his facean. expression. of
yearning •tenderness. which complete-
ly transformed him. • •And in that
short time.the servants of the Hall,
.had 'b.edri • wont to Molt uppn
hint With a certainfear mingled with
respect,. now began to find themsel-
ves warming toward him. •
He had at once given out the news
of -the finding of nis daughter by.
O GOYS- and • not only his own house-
holds , but the whole country Was
looking forward to her miming, with.
a curiosity second only to ais -Mon.
.The story. of his .early :Sife Was
known to a few Of the -older people;
and they told enough of it to whet
the curiosity of everybody to lusaW
what sort of , a person the daughter
would be.•
For that he c•ared aothing, ca -
though he musthave knowo that
'she was being. talked. about.- Ho
dreaded, to find 'her Ignorant and
.coarse, but he .had steadfastly kept
before himself the oho idea, that, be
she what shemight, it was his own
doing, and therefore he • would not
permit 'himself to look forward with
any other thought than one of joy,
at having' his daughter with him.
It wasalready after half -past nine
o'clbck, and he began to look ner-
vously. at . his Watch every few Min-
utes. He pitted .the floor and sat
downaagain; .11e arose to look at
the picture of his wronged wife. He.
paced. the leer again. He- read and
O resread the telegrams. 'I -La listened'
with aharpened ear for every sound
on thc. gravel -drive under his.. win-
dow. .
The time dragged, but at last the
listening ear caught the longed -for
sound Of wheels. He sank upon the
lounge, holding his hand over hie
heart, and, with blenched face, Wait-
ed there for some one to come and
tell hini that his daughter was in
his house once more, •
How would she greet' him? What
was she like? •. ••
These were . the qu,estions that
coursed through his nand, as hsat
there listening to the opening of the
great doors, to the depositing a
trunas .on the porch, and to the
sound of voices too indistinct - for
him to recognize at that distance.
Ile was, sure be had heard the voice
of Guy, but listen as he would. it did
not se.em to hint that he could catch
the faintest sound that watild indi-
cate that Constance was there, too.
Could it be that she had changed
her mind at the last minute, and de-
cided, that she could not feagiVe the
O man, her father though he were, who
had caused her innocent mother suf-
fering?. He looked up at the sweet
face in the picture, with a look so
full of pleading, that if the young
wife could have been there sale Would
certainly have Old him that all was
forgiven. • .
"Sir Richard!"
Ire turned quickly, arid, half ris-
ing. cried, brokenly.
"MIS', my boy, you have -brought

•Fur Hunters Who Have just Heard
of the Death of Queen Victoria.
Reports are reaching civilization
of tho operations of the past winter
• in the interior and upon the eoast
• of Labrador. • The seasoti was, gee-
erally speaking, a mild one, and the
fatalities among the Indians fewer
than usual. A good supply of furs
was, secured, but none of such pecul-
iar value as some of those taken
dur ng the; previous winter..
Toe highest price paid for a skin
**.T)
6...... last winter's • catch was $800,
's which was for a black silver fox, the
t king of all the fur bearing animals
of La.brallors Exactly double that
amount was paid for a skin of the
same variety, a very noble specimen,
about a year ago. Prices in general
are scarcely so good at preseat as
they were -at this time last year.
Marten skins, which have brought
as much. as $25 a skin, sold this
spring for from $15 to $18. Traders
are especially proud of the • otters
and minks which they obtain from
Labrador, which have fur of it pecul-
iar fineness and lustre. °
The hunters from 'the inserier of
Labrador had not heard of the death
of Queen Victoria until they emerg-
ed from the woods a few days ago.
No mail Matter can "each than dur-
ing the winter. Even the residents
along the coast had only six mails
from autumn • till spring, and these
had to be eonveyed over the • snow
by dogs, on sleighs, for Want of

convey•ance. ,

."MiSB Hartleigh Awaits . in the
drawing -room," announced a foot-
man, and Sir Richard, as if glad to
escape any further explanations,
took Guy's arm and led him from
the room.
O ."Prity,be calm, said Guy, as
he felt the old man's hand tremble
on his arm, "and whatever' happens,
do not be cast down. All must come
right in a little while." •
Sir Richard looked up at his ne-
phew in a piteous way, and passed
his hand nervously over his face, He
dreaded ' to see his daughter after
Guy's words of warning twice re-
peated, but • he was firm in his re-
solve to greet her with words of
love, dmiwith all fatherly affection.
Guy looked down at his • unele in a
pitying fashion, but said no More.
As' tliey neared tae drawing -room,
the old Man made a strenuous effort
to control hanself. • He would prove
to himself and to Guy that he'was
not afraid to meet his wronged
daughter. He disengaged his hand
from Guy's arm, and quickening las
pace, entered the room first. .,
O Several weeks had -Passed since
O Constance had been carried fainting
into a wretched hovel ilt the wilds of
America, and during that time she
had recovered • all of her freshness
and beauty. She was pale, but with
the cream -like paSlor which was
•chatactOristic of her style of beauty,
and served to set off the dark eyes
and hair. With true art she had
choseri a black dress of some sett
material,'• and, for her only orna-
ment ono pale -yellow .rose in the
thick folds of her soft, dark hair.
• She had .come down to the 0 draw-
ing -room and despatched the foot-
man on his errand, atter whicli she
had messed her hands' in front of
her and glanced around the richly
furnished roorn, with its costl3r
bric-a-brac and articles of virtu', its
statuary and paintings, and a look
of scorn passed aver her beautiful
face. ' She was not • aecustomed to
such luxury, but she tontemplated it
coldly.' Her eye roved over the
paintings, and • -there was nothing
but scorn -011 her face as she glanced

''They prided themselves on • their

murmured, "andthey would scorn
• me as I scorn ' them if they •could
know' me for who I am; and yet the
most remote ancestor of theist all
had 110 more right than I to 6. place

Her lip curled bitterly as she
swept the walls, and she would have
turned away had not her eye been
taught •by the portrait of a hand-
some young man. She turned swift-
ly and faced that. • '
"It

to herself. "So he must have look-

From the •picture ,her glance walla
dered aro.uad the room, and a burn-
ing sense of coutrast fired her heart..
Her• thoughts travelled back to
the little house in San Francisco
where her mother ilad died, and • to

which they two had borne together.
She looked again at the portrait

robizt to change his clothes for sup-
per, which he knew would soon be
served. ,
"Coasta.nce,". began the old man.
"Guy must have told you how I

Re .said this hesitatingly, as if he
would discover how. much .she had
really forgiven him. And he watched
her closely, so that he saw the sud-
den. hardening Of. the' lines around

•"I do not say this as Mkt pallia-

Of interest to all 'classes, reform-
ers and epicures alike, is an idea
that haa recently been advanced by
Mr, AVilliara Ilryan, an electrician
of CincInnati, He has, tor years
been mariufaeturing batteries and
appliances for, physicians, and In hie
studiee has also inquired into elec-
Weal therapeutics—the system of
disease treatment by electricity. In
this he is regarded as an authority,
end some of his articles on "Electros
lysis" have awakened considerable
intereet among physicians and sur -
goons in the middle west. He is not
a. vegetarian or a devoted of any
radical food theory, but shares with
mankind in generalan aversion for
tough, unpalatable meats. Such a
thing, he says, is tainecessory, ttnd
In support of his idea he brings for-
ward a method whereby he insists
the evil May be eradicated.
Ustially his method in outline has
been as follows: Selecting a, very
ordinary pieta of meat he cute it in
two, and submits one-half of it to ti.
treatinent by "elettrolyeis"—that is,
he inducts into it a current of elec-
tricity that permeates every atom
and disintegrates the "connectiVe
tissues" ---the scientific name for that
quality of a tough steak which pro-
duces so much indigestion and pro-
fanity. When the process has con-
tinued a sufficient time the to
pieces are cooked in precisely the
mune Diailrier and their merits com-
pared.
Wgether ,the "untreated" piece
turns out to be good, bad or in-
different, the other . is always a
toothsome morsel, fit for an epicure
or an invalid. The electricity, it is
.elaAmed, 'eaves no taint and does
not lessen the nutritive quality of
the meat. In tact, it, tends to des-
troy impurity. It. is said that this
process may be applied to any meats
or vegetablee.
