"I should have been so eorry to have made a scene, ahti I um not liable to such attacks; I do not remember ever hunting before, save once." She shivered as she recalled that experi- ence in' Rosedaie chapel, and which had been so etrangely and faithfully reprodue,ed to -night.

"Mise Richardson, I have no one —I am utterly &one in the world," he replied in a tone of repressed feeling that was more, pathetic than any outward manifestation of grief would have been. They made their wa.y to the stair - 'way, when, with a. respectful "al- low. me," Mr. Carr& again passed his arm about her and. supported her so firmly, yet so easily, that she soon found herself at the top almost without an effort on her Pant Then the young man once more drew her hand 'through his arra, and they began to slowly pace the deck. 'He led her to talk of various things, to draw her mind away from her- self', until she forgot all about her recent indisposition, and was tarn conversing with almost her accus- tomed animation. "Is your home in England, Mr. Car- rel?" she atked, after an allusion to London. "Ito, Miss Richardson; I am ono of those unfortunate individuals who have so home." "An," she cried, with a sigh, "pray pardon . me. I seem strangely in- clined to touek upon painful topics to -night." "It was a very natural question," he kindly respended, "so pray do not reproaeli yourself. 1 . am really a native of the United States, al- though it has not been my home for many years.

It was introduced into England with the big ruff, in the time of Queen -Elizabeth. It was like our starch of to -day ,exeept thatIt was made in colors, red, yellow, green and blue. The effect of this was to tint delieately the white linen to which the starch might be applied. Before Queen Elizabeth's time ruffles were made of fine helland, which requir- ed no stiffening. Then the ruffs of cam- bric came, and these must of umessity be starched. It is recorded that when tati Queen had ruffs made of lawn and cam- bric for her own royal wearing there was no one in England could tell how to starch them, but the Queen made special inquiries for some woman that could starch, and Mrs. Gallium, wife of the royal coachman, was the first stmeher. In 1504 e Flanders woman,. Frau Van der Plasse, came to London and estab- lished:there a school for the teaching of starching. The school succeeded, and the Flanders frau got rich. She charged £5 a lesson, and an extra twenty shillings for a receipt for the making of starch out of wheat flour, bran and. roots. CREATING A 'MARKET. An Aiderican Consul in Germany tells ; of several American manufacturers who have found foreign markets for their products after securing the protection of the trade -mark laws. "Newspaper ad- vertising," he says, "has been the key which has unlocked the door of prejue dice or indifference. This advertising has, also helped to amide a market for other .American goods."

The gravest of the itecklcuts no the Iligber Alpe bas been that of the Ober- Gabelhorn. This great cone of reddiele roele familiar to alt habitues of Zermatt, Is not eoneidereil in these latter days A difficult ascent, provided it is climbed by experts with reasonable precautions. Its rocks are steep, but they are iiso us- ually firm, and to the best of our recoh lection they have never 'tithed° been the seem of any mountaineering fatality. In this instance a party of Austrians were making the Merit from Zermatt, roped two and two, as is often the cus- tom an rocks, wee tourist and one guide on each rope. Dr. Dernellus was in charge of the guide Teenbell and was leading ou the rope, wben suddenly. a great Mass of rock which was serving Ittt a foothold,gave way beneath Ms feet, carrying him and bis luckless guide down with it to their death, The =idea Wits thus closely similar to the welhicnown catastrophe on the Rothorn ten years ago, by which the guide Hiner lost his life. The sudden collapse of a foothold is one of those rare events which the ramie teineer must on occasions be prepared to chance, and against whiela pethaps, no vigilance can guard, An accident of a huite different type was that by -which in mid-July Miss Goodman lost her life. Me was climbing with a party on the rope, 'when she slipped and fell. The rope broke, and the fall had fatal results. It is feared that this fatelity was due to the employment of emend -class cord. Otherwise it is most inexplicable, as the eases in which a rope of good quality has parted. under the stress of a fall are few and far between. In the great and ever -memorable catastrophe on the Mat- terhorn by which Lord F. Douglas and Messrs. Hudson, Meow and Croz lost their lives, the rope aneich broke was a weak and inferior one, which the guide ought never to lima used. The type of rope approved by the Alpine Club can be trusted in most emergencies if it be pro- perly used.—London Mail.
