"Great powers. Well, I need not lose this precious chance of speaking to yon. I suppose I shall never see you except through a haze of Highland relations." "No; it Is not very likely." "If you knew how anxious 1 an, to ask you a variety of questions, you would give me some opportunity of a tete-a-tete," "You eau ask as many as you like. I have no secrets." "What, does your uncle know you re- fused Waring." "How do you know I did?" "Oh. I know how desperately in love he was, and it is currently reported that you did, and that he went to the bad in consequence." "Nousense," returned Monaa grave, hard expression replacing the smile which had played round on her lips. "You and 1, Sir St. John Lisle, have seen en- ough of the world we live in to know that women seldom have sufficient in- fluence to make or rear any man's life." "I am not so sure. I fancy if any wo- men ever had, you would be one of them." He looked sharply at her as he spoke. She laughed naturally and merrily. "Considering the score of women who are remit influential, I do not think your opinion flattering." "Why, do you not think good women influence us?" "Not often, I fancy." "You have grown worldly-wise since we met, Mona" "Does an abserute of nearly four years make you more familiar witb eny name than you used to be," she asked coldly. "Yes," he returned, looking down in- to her eyes, "because I have thought of you so often, and called you Mons, in my heart since we parted." Mona met his eyes very steadily, while an amu.sed expression crept into her own. "Call me what you like in the inner region you term heart, but pray let your lips conform to the usages of this mun- dane society in which we live and move and have our being," she said, careless- ly. Lisle was silent for a Moment. "I accept your rebuke," he said, 'and will not again offend," "Oh, I did not mean to rebuke," said Mona, good-Immoredly---"only to re- mind." "You have changed enormously," re- sumed Lisle. "You seem years older." "Thank you. That is a rare compli- ment." "I will not be thaffed into retracting it. I meant that you seem more mature; and I find, as I always do, that the fruit is more heavenly sweet than even the blossom." "Yet, I imagine that anticipation is always better than fruition," said Mona, quite unmoved by the implied compli- ment. They walked a few steps In silence, then Lisle exclaimed— "What banishment it must be for you to live here with these very excellent people." "On the contrary, I feel quite at home. I am fond of my uncle, because he is fond of me, and I find life quits endur- able." "Do, you always love those who love you?" "Yes, always." "Except in poor Waring's case." "That was the exception which proves the rule, Probably I should have been wiser had I conformed to yeur sound ad- vice," turning to him %int a frank, sweet smile, 'but I cannot say I repent my rejection of it." 'I fear," said Lisle, gravely, 'that you no longer conaider me a friend, as you used." "On the contrary, I am very pleased to welcome such a friend, after his long absence." "Thank yon," and Lisle walked beside her in ailenee for a few minutes. "I see Lady Finiimoun luta not been long in finding you out," he resumed. " I met her just before I overtook you; she was accompanied by that fearful female, Miss Morton; have you ever met her be- fore." "Never." "I wonder that you have imt, She is so very ubiquitoue. She was the fix.st. person that I recognized tvhen 1 reathed Bombay, and one of the fast when 1 reached Kirkt,oun. wonder Lady Finietoun lether make even a temporary settlement at the Lodge." A few more unimportant sentences brought them to the house, where they found Uncle Sandy enjoyirig forty winks while waiting till the darkness had deep- ened sufficiently to render the lansp necessary. Mary eves seated on the eteps leading to the garden, reading by the fault -fading light. "11121 What's wrang?" cried Untie Sandy, rettsing up confusedly, "Sir St. John Lisle has oome to see you, uncle." "What's hiull?" In an irritated tone, 'I am very sorry to disturb yea; but did not like to pass your bowie without calling to say thet 1 have bad no °hewer as yet to my letter, so we will keep well this- aide of the eupposed boundary, ani rt into no trouble, till the meteor ie "Wee), It min* 1,e helpit."

"Mona, ca,' Phemie to tak' them!" "Then I will not trespass ou you any longer. Prey, young ladies, do you not feel disposed to put me on my way? The moon is rising, and the walk back would be charming?" Mary looked at hiona, evidently ready to return her good office a if neceaary, but the other laughed, and said they could enjoy the view from the window without the trouble of walking. Lisle reproached both for refusing his request, and bidding them a gay good -night, de- parted on his homeward road. "Asveel, 1 didna want to hear he hatl nae lettere" murmured Uncle Sandy. "I'd rather have my bit doze than a' his birdies!" and aettled to his nap again. "Ah!" whispered Mary Black, "it's not the letter than brought him here. I am afraid but you are a hard-hearted lassie, Mona. He is a handsome, grand -looking gentleraan." "He is not nearly as good-looking as Kenneth," said Mona, laughing at Mary's evident delight in the discovery she thought she had made. Meanwhile Lisle walked rapidly down hill in the direction of the hotel wh'ere he and his friend put up, and thinking very earnestly of the interview he had just had. In the new scenes and occupations of his life in India, he had lost much of the impression which the little episode of his had left upon him. Her breaking with Waring, after hav- ing accepted hun, had been a mystery he could not fathom As she seemed indif- ferent to himself, why did she not marry a rich, easy-going fellow, who would do anything for her? Had she fallen in love with any other man? Had she a secret history, which might account for her eccentric conduct? "However that may be, she was fond of me once, in a proud, shy, reluctant way," he thought. "I was certain of it till that day when she took my advice about Waring so differently from what I expected. By Jove! I am xtight, too! I have ielt her tremble when I put my arm around her in a waltz, and it nearly made me make a fool of myself. What a charming figure she has. Her eyes too, they are darker and, softer—but steady! There is a curious look of resolution in them when they meet mine. If I were her grandfather, she could not treat me with more friendly composure; she is gently, kindly indifferent, or acts it ad- mirably, while I—I am harder hit than ever! I don't think I have myself so well in hand as I used. I must not be an ass, but I must and will break down that harrier of profound reserve she masks so cleverly behind her sweet, care- less frankness. Does she resent the part I played? Pooh! A woman always for- gives a lover who comes back with fresh fire after a short estrangement. I don't quite understand her—I must be careful. She is a most dainty morsel, and if I suc- ceed—well, I can afford myself even a wife according to my fancy nowl and not be to much hampered with her after the blom is off the grape! How in Heaven's name did she came to have such an un- cle? She looks thoroughbred, if ever a woman did! There is a sort of conscious power about her smile that stings a fel- low's pride. I wonder if she is thinking of me? or of that other possible loved, whose existence would explain rnuch? I wonder if that word of counsel I ven- tured to offer still rankles? Dare I ex- plain it away/ No, I dare not approach the subject. Well, I know women pretty well—give me time, and I think I shall win this puzzling girl. No one ever took melt a holki on ray heart --no, my fancy, before." CHAPTER XX. It was, on the whole, a bright time at Craigdarroch. Mona found Mary a very pleasant companion—a quiet, kindly, sen- sible girl, whose hearty admiration and profoeuad faith was a gratifying tribute to her new friend. Uncle Sandy's uneasy pride had perhaps never before been so satisfactorily fed, and, like all Ohms thus satiated, was lulled to sleep for the present. If at any time the currents of his temper flowed from the east, it was against Kennegh they chafed; and Ken- neth was modr inflexible than formerly. It was a great relief to Mona to have a partner in her readings and writings and general care of Uncle Sandy. More- over, Mary had learned to play chess with her father, the schoolmaster, and al- lowed herself to be beaten with much tact—occasionally winning to keep up the illusion. Amid this temporary tranquility and comfort, Mona often though of her dear, kind Deb; not that Deb would care for a life of inactivity and seclusion—busy day, oceasional theatres, concerts and soirees, where she might display a dainty awl becoming cap, this was the existence which suited. her. But by her own heart Mon e keew what a blank her absence left ill the warm-hearted, bright -spirited woman's life. She was therefore a Most steady and satisfactory eorreepondent, giving a weekly picture of her days, and descriptions of her readinge and musing. She made, however, very slight mention of Lisle; but slight as it was, It sufficed to :id /time. Debriatty off. " "Your letter, as usual, reached me on Saturday.

Then he began to talk in short eentences, and with what we might term a 'staccato fortissimo' manner. Sonic - how his eyes and voice seemed familiar to me, only I could not find a clear place for him in my memory.

"'Humph,' add he; 'are you a French- woman?' "'No,' said I; 'but I am next door to one—I am Irish!' "'From what part of that unfortunate country, may I ask?' more politely. "'From Ballykillruddery.'

And I helped to do up my cousin Rose Nugent's hair with rib- bons of his colors for the race ball! I know you now, and I must shake hands with you!' So we shook hands and hie brown face softened and glowed while he talk- ed to Rose. He was desperately in love with her, and they were engaged. He went off to India; she stayed at home— got a wetting out boating, took cold, and went off in a decline. He married, and lost his wife, and now he is wand- ering about in indifferent health. I should not have mentioned all this if it had not been for a bit that will interest you. In the course of conversation, it turned out that the general is some re- lation of poor Mr. Waring's, and he is awfully vexed with him. It seems he has got through a heap of money, and has gone to America. A friend of the gener- al's saw him breaking horses last spring in California. I said I had met him, and what good fellow I thought him. Then the general said Ile was an ass, and had had let himself be knocked out of the running because he could not get e. girl Ise wanted to marry him. Of course I did not let on that I knew anything about it, and the subject dropped. Then my old general asked for my address, and said he would come and see me some Sunday—whiela I told him was my only free day—but I don't fancy he will. "Now, my darling, I have prosed long enough, and I must stop. When shall I see you again. Can't you persuade your uncle to come up to town for a little more physic. You make him too happy and comfortable. I was going to write, 'Don't refuse Sir St. John Lisle with- out thinking twice,' but I will not. Mat- rimony is a tremendous experiment, and ru not venture to recommend it. God bless you, my own dear. My best res- pects to your uncle. Ever your loving friend, "Geraldine Debrisay," The remembrance of his pained ex- pression and quivering lips when lie left her—after she had broken with him— haunted her for some time, as it always did, after it had been roused by any allusion to her rejected lover. But her housekeeping cares, the demands of Uncle Sandy, the pleasure of a ramble with Mary, helped to banish these un- pleasant thoughts. The Thursday on which Mona was to have a peep once more at the world she felt she had quitted forever, rose fresh and clear after yesterday of storm and rain. Lady Finistoun had offered to drive over after luncheon and fetch her, so- Mona—relieved front the necessity of taking out Uncle Sandy's ramshackle conveyance, dressed, and having put up a carefully arranged dinner dress ahd change of raimeht, waited quietly for her ladyship' appearance. Uncle Sandy had driven away early. with Kenneth to the sale of Highland cattle at Kirktoun, and Mary bad gone to tarry :some jelly to the shepherd's mother, who was old an& weak. Mona was reading rt review sent her by Mme. Debrisay, when she heard the sound of a carriage driving up, "She is earlier than 1 expected," was her mental comment as she glanced at the clock. "It is barely half past three." Voices were heard speaking in the hall and Mona rose intending to go out and meet her friend, when the door opened, and Lisle entered unannouneed,ghis hat in his heed, looking bright and brown. Mona tolored in spite of herself. "Good morning," he cried, cheerily. "I hope you will forgive a change of plane. Lady h'inistoun finds she inust drive in to Kirktoun to meet Major and Mrs. Monteith— Finistoun'es sister, you know —so I offered mytelf and my dogcart to Convey you to the Lodge.

Wine germs, which make it possible to duplicate the famous wines of Bordeaux, Burgundy or the Rhine, are among the latest experiments of scientists. The germs are obtained from the dregs of casks which have contained genuine old wine, and those for each particular brand are placed fax safe keeping in a sub- stance prepared from Japanese isinglass and fruit juice. In the jellylike mass the germs soon establish a colony. When needed, sufficient gerrns may be placed In a tube of eternized fruit juice. After two or three days the juice will be in full fermentation, with •plentiful effer- vescence. This process is said to impart to the wine the exact bouquet and char- acteristics of the wine from which the 'germs originally came. 1 Minard's Liniment Co., Limited, Dear Sirs,—I had a Bleeding Tumor on . my face for a long time and tried a num- 1 ber of remedies without any good results • and I was advised to try MINARD'S LINIMENT, and after using several bot - ties it made a complete cure, and it .healed all up and disappeared altogeth- er.

In Cathode circles, both in this ,nountry and iu Rome it Is held to be possible that au American may be chosen General, and the name of Father Rudolph Meyer has beea mentioned in this connection. Father Meyer is promin- ent in the order and haft been resident in Rome for many years, connected with the German college there. About ono hundred will attend the congre- gation and the election of the General requires a majority of two-thirds. It is believed by those familiar with Jesuit affairs that there Is little or no liklihood that the new General will be of Italian birth, for the reason that the interests of the order are much greater outside of Italy than in it The last six Generals were not Italian. The late Father MartM was a Spaniard, It Is because the interests of the order have so greatly in- creased in this country in the last decade that knowing ones look for the election of att American. The headquarters of the order have been for years at Friesole, near Florence, which was the °facial residence of the "131aelt Pope." The late General, however, resided for most of the time in Rome, and recently the immense quarters formerly held by the Augustinian order in the Ludovisl neighbor- hood in Rome have been purchased by the Jesuite, and here will be the headquarters of tho order in the future. The property includes the Church of St. Patrick and an un- finished convent. —Buffalo commercial. TERRIBLY DISTRESSING. Nothing can cause more pain azul more dieteess than Piles.
