"Really," Sir Rupert Chudleigh. thought, settling hiniself in his easy - chair, and looking complacently at his pink fingernails, 'a most elegant and thoroughly lady -like person. She will light up our dreary rooms, like one of Greuze's plump beauties stepped out of its frame. fier manners are perfec- tion, and her eyes the finest I think I ever saw.

"I came, I saw, I conquered!" she thought, with an exultant little laugh. "1 can afford to cry quits with you now, my uplifted Princess Sybil! When I write my name Lady Chudleigh, who will be conqueress then? And I'll do it, too, before the year ends, if Dame Fate, who has stood my friend so long, tdoes not desert inc at the supreme hour, and send that detectable Cyril Trevan- ion here to betra.y me. And yet he may come and not know me, after all." She reache.c1 the house as the silvetsy haze of the summer twilight was falling, and ran up at once to the drawing-romr. But in the doorway she paused, for Sybil Trevanion stood tstlking to her mother, with that fixed, inflexible look on her pale, beautiful face the widow had icarnedlo know so well. My lady's handkerchief was at her eyes. Neither noticed the eavesdropper in the door. "It is very unkind—it is frightfully cruel of you, Sybil!" my lady said in whitapering tcine "But you always were as obstinate as a mule.

'Liniment Cures Diphtheria, tI TWO VIEWS. (Toronto atar.) Lict when he saye that the Man who marries a Canadian girl will have to help with the houvework, he makes too sueeping a statement.

It is quite trele that Canadian husbands are often seen wheel- ing babies in carriages on the streets. It is not eonsiderea an 'Unmanly ocupation. but a fatherly amusement.
