CHAPTER, IX.
atr. Carrara injury proved to be
quite a eerheas one, en spite of the
light manner in which he had spoken
of it to Florence; one of the bones ,
of the forearm — the radius —
having been broken, 'while he had '
received a ver,,e bad bruise on the
shoulder.
lie was vera brave, however, dur-
ing the setting of the bone, ehaira-

Mr. Seaver, earnestly:, as while the
surgeon was bandaging the arm, the
soueg man gave hima brief account
of the accident and paseed Very'
lightly over bis part in it. "I saw
the whole thing, and I 'know that ,
you saved the life of my ward, Miss'
Rieharcisen." •
"Now, doctor," he added the next I
moment, "I hope he isn't going to ;
be laid up with this hurt." • 1
"I hope hot, truly," the surgeon
'replied; "the bone will not give Wm

anething I can do for you, you will

"Tbaink eou, air, but I am sure I
shall get along nicely!. I am not go-
ing to have very much to do during
the next few weeks, but wait about
London until some papers are readyl
for me to sign, and it is very fortun-
ate for me and others that my right
arm was not injured," the young
man cheerfully' responded. Then,
the surgeon having arranged a
sling tor the •injured member, 'he
added, "There 1 I really feel quite

"Let me beep you," said Mr. Seav-
er, eagerly ; end, accompanying laim
to bis stateroom, be collected his
hand baggage o.nd carried it on deck
for liIm.
Here they! found Florence and Mrs.
ireaver wItla .?,fr. Merrill and one or
two others, discuseing the accident.
The moment Florence caught
eight of ber guardian and Mr. Car-'
roe she tfpra,ng forward to meet
them.
"Oh it was broker -dr she sorrow-
fully exclaimed, and with "starting

"Prade, do hot be disterbee, MIAS
Richardson—It is 'not a. bad break,
and will goon be all right again," ,
the yerung man smilingly replied. t
Then he continued, glancing at his
watch : "I shall be obliged to 'take
leave of elm! Immediately if 1 am
tel. catch the ten-th•Irten train for
London. Good -by, ?dr. Seaver, it has
given me great pleasure to make
our acquaintance, and I shall look
eagerlyforward to our reunion, a
month later."
The lady viarmty shook hands with
him, at the same dine expressinf
her gratitude for his brave act of
that morneng.
Then he turned to Florence. I

while her 'beautiful face had rested

"1 ani glad and you were very

now quietly withdrawing hereelf
from his encircling arm. "I should

scene, ahti I um not liable to such
attacks; I do not remember ever

shivered as she recalled that experi-
ence in' Rosedaie chapel, and which
had been so etrangely and faithfully
reprodue,ed to -night.
"What could it mean 2" she asked
herself "was it merely a singular
colmildeace, or could it be poseible

The alternative which suggestea
Itself to her ceeded her to shiver
again from an icy chill,

with gentle solicitude; "let me get

He drew her hand more closely

her to her chair, where lay the /oft,

"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

and! 1 slippage I have relatives resid-
ing not tar frora London, and it Is
my purpose to look them up before
I push out into the- business world
again—just to keep me from feeling
quite alone."
Ws tone, rather then bis words,
;widened Florence, and she felt sure
that he mut have met with some
Bad reverses and disappointments in
life. Perhape, she thought, that was
th.e reaeon he appeared to grave
and dignified and older than his

Starch originated in Flanders." 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 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.

"It is an awful good thing to obey
the commands of the Lord," says it mem-
ber of the recent Methodist General Con-
ference from Pennsylvenie, to a Wash-
ington Times man, "and whenever I
think of this I am reminded of a story
related of a pioneer Methodist named
dralentine Cook, who wee a power in his
day, and who got off many odd sayings.
"Onee there was a terrible uph'eavel
of nature in the shape of an earthquake,
and Dr. Cook woke up, finding his bed
jostling and turning. He believed the end
of the world near and made a bee line
for the door. His good wife, in great
agitation, celled., 'Valentine, wait for
me! Wait for med.
"No, my dear,' he answered. 'When
the Lord calls, I wait for nobody. Good-
bye," and out of the door he shot.
