"Why does isteareine eot come to town .7"
says NIrs. Douglas, impetietetly, to Lady
Etwynae. " She must be moped to death

gives in the horrors even to think ot tt."
It is e, eel(' atteraoon in Fele:eery, Mid
it is Letly letwymle's " day,' but the
aesthetes are deserting her now. Her inter.
riage is fixed for the enJ. of the mantle. It
is to, be very quiet, and Laurette° has
written to say she menet come to it; her
health is so delicate, that all excitement
and fatigue are forbidden. Bat the real
truth is, thet Sir Erato's has developed a
new system of tyranny, framed in by every
species of insultieg suspicion, and has
ordered Laaraine to remain at Falcon's
cheee,and declared she shall no; even go up
to London for the season. it is chilaieh, it
Is cowardly, audit is unreasonable, and he

that he can think of at present. He him•
seif is in Paris, with all the gaieties and

at Lady Jean's strange conduet, and coal -

Of mum she goes nowhere-11er deep

knows thet he is always excludea aud the
fact inake3 lain more unteble'more bitter
against his wife, and more inmetient of
seeing his mietress than he has ever been
aince they parted at the Chase.
How long am I to wait 7" he wonders,
impatiently. "What can be her mean-
ing ?"
As yet neither of these questioniaseemed
deatined to be answered.
" I know there is something," persiots
Mrs, Douglas, drawing near the fire in the
pretty artistic drawing -room, anti dropping
her voice confidentially. "It looks so odd,
and Sir Francis is never with her now. Do
tell me, Lady Etwynde, was there anything
-anything wrong -when you were down
there at Christmas ?"
"I think Lauraine is most unliepper."
says Lady Etwynde, sorrowfully ; "and
this* bee marriage eves a great mistake. I
often heard you congratulating yourself and
-her-on its brilliance, alree Douglas ; but
1 think, 4:ould you see bell:11a the scenes and
look into your daughter's breaking heart,
you would not feel quite eo proud, or so
satisfied respeoting it."
alas. Douglas looks at her annoyed and
impatient. •
If she is unhappy it must be her own
fault. She had everything that could make
a woman happy, and her husbana was
devoted to her. If she has lost his atlactien,
it is by her own imptet lence and folly, 1
warned her long ago how it would be!'
"Perhaps your weaning canto too late.
Most warnings do," says Lati.er Etwynde,
coldly. "But a loveless marriage to a girl
of Lauraine's disposition and nature was a
dangerous experiment. You ought to have
let her marry Keith Athelstone:"
Mrs. Douglas's eyes flash angrily. "I sup-
pose you= in her contulence. Iacted for the
best. Keith was always wild and rash, and
riot at all a suitable match • and, besides
that, she was not in love with hina-or, at
least, never told me ao. She was quite con-
tent to marry $ir Francis."
"She could have known nothing of his
reputation, then," answers Lady Etwynde.
"He was always a bed, fast men ; and he
has treated Leuraine abominably,"
Mrs. Douglas looks at her with inereased
curiosity, " What has he done? Is it about
-Lady Jean ?"
"Yes," answers Lady Etwynde, colour-
ing. "Lauraine knows now what the world
has long suspected ; and when she would
not allow that woman to remain under her
roof, Sir Frauds threatened her with pro-
ceedings, and dragged in poor Keith Athol -
stone s name."
"Good Heavens l" exclaims alea. Douglas,
"what scandal -what horror ! Oh, surely
he is not in earnest? Why, Lauraine is it
fool -a perfect fool ! Why did she make a
scene about it ? Of course, everyone knows
such things happen constantly. Men are
never faithful -never 1 But to insult the
woman -and for what good 2 To think that
a daughter of rnine should have been such
an idiot ?"
"ft does seem remarkable, doesa't it ?"
says Lady Etwynde, dryly. "You see
women nowadays generally prefer worldly
advantage to their own self-respect."
" Selferespece 1 Fiddlesticke, eries NJ rs.
Douglas, growing more and more irate.
"Will selares.pect give her her present
position, or gam the world's belief in her
innocence if ehe is once in the Divorce
Court ? Self-respect! I hate such rublasb.
She had everythingshe wanted; why could
she not have been content?"
"1 thtresay you would never understand
why," answers Lady Etwynde, calmly.
"Lauraine is singularly unlike yourself."
"Lauraine is a fool -a perfect fool I"
cries Mrs. Douglas, furiously. "To get
herself into a eorape like this, and all for
nothing; to insult a woman of Lady Jean's
position, and then to get herself talked
about as she's done with that. young idiot

folly long ago, when they fancied them-
selves in love with each other 1 Why, she
must have taken leave of her senses, and

Lady Etwynde is silent. She is thinking
it would bare been stranger still if Lauraine
had taken her mother into her confidence.

kind to her," resaines Mrs. Douglas, present-
ly. "Always when I have seen them to.
gether."
"1 believe it is not a rule in good society
for husband and wife to quarrel openly,'
remarks Lady Btwynde.
"She should have been content and sensi-
ble like other people, goes on Mrs. Douglas,
disregarding the interruption. " Good,
gracious, everyone knows auch things go on.
You oen't make saints of men. You must.
take them as they are. And did she actual-
ly make Lady Jean leave the house ?a
"She would have been scarcely less
guilty. than Lady Jean, • had she condoned
her presence, knowing what she knew,"
says Lady Etwynde, with rising indig-
nation. Even if a hesband sloes not love
his wife, he at least should treat her with
common decency."
• "1 daresay Lartraioe brought it all on
herself. A mo,n can't always put up with
such, airs as thcae to which she treated Sir
Francis, and, in contrest with Lady Jean,
why Lanraine was -nothing." '
"No," agaees Lady Etwynde. ".d. good
woman and puremitcled generally looks
colourless and came beside a wicked one.
The contrast is too strong I suppose.
Mrs. Douglas looks at her sharply. She
does not like her tone, nor understand it.

she says, "1 shell write to Laureime and

"Sir Francis perhaps had his own aims
to attain," interpolates Lady Eta-ynde. I
am ineliued to think so, judging by re-
sults."
"Do you mean -do yon reelly think he
wishes for freedom ?" almost gasps Mrs.
Douglas. "Is it so bad as that?'
d'Lady Jean seems to heve infatuated

always weak where women were concerned,

"I think," says Lady Etwynde, very
quietly, "I wonlil not go if I were you."

sharply.

Etwynde; "and yeti can do no good -no

is aver now. Sir Francis has not. carried
out his threat, anti 1 fauoy he won't. He
has ordered Lauraine to remain in North-
umberland; but I do not think that is any
great punishment to her. She always loved
the Chase, and all her memories ot her child
are with it."
"It is a pity the child died,' says Mrs.
Douglas, involuatarily.
I " -You may well say that. Ile would at

Still it was a
" Leuraine meet have been in fault,"
complains Mrs Douglas fretfully-. "It is
all nonsense to say she is a martyr -Sir
!Ifraziois was no worse than other men. If
she had been less cold less odd lie would
never have run after other women."
"1 do not agree with you," interrupts
Lady Etwynde. "Sir Franeie is just what .
he always was -a thoroughly aeltish mau,
and a men whose habits are ingrained in
every bbre of his nature. He has never
treated women with any respect, and his
passion for Lauraine was as short-lived as
any of his other fanoies. Re marriea her
because -well you know the real reason ;A
well as yeti known the man, and in two
years he was tired of her. For a woman,
young, beautiful, warin-hearted, ehe has
had a most trying life, and a naost erneI ex-
perience. Had ill° indeed been what hula
dreas of others armsbe might have consoled
herself easily enough, but she could not do
that, and -she has her reward."
'Mrs. Douglas is silent and uncomfortable.
"It, is a. great pity," she says at last. "A
great pity. And. one can really do nothing?"
"Nothing," tinware Lady Etwynde,
"except wait and hope."
Then the door opens and Colonel Carlisle
enters, and a beautiful flush and light come
over her face as she ereets him. Mrs.
Douglas looks at her radiant eyes and sees
his road and tender glance, and hears the
happy ring in their answering voices, and
as she goes out and leaves them alone a
little uncomfortable feeling rises in her
heart. Is there something in love, after
tale" she asks herself.
What has that woman been saying ?"
asks Colonel Carlisle, as the door closes and
he seats himself by his betrothed. "You
lookei worried when I came in,"
"She always does worry me 1 think,"
says Lady Etwynde, nestling me,
to his
side, as the strong arm draws her towards
him. "She is eo worldly, so cold, so heart-
less ; and I hate to hear a mother speak of
her daughter as she speaks of Laura:no."
"They seem totally unlike each other,"
says the Colonel. "Poor Lauraine! Have
you any news of her ?"
"1 had a Teeter this morning. She can-
not come up for our marriage. Of course,
Sir Francis won't let her -that is the real
truth. It is a little bit of spite on his
part."
"What an unfortunate marriage that,
was 1" exclaims Colonel Carlisle, involuntar-
ily. Ah, my darling, thank God that we
shall have love andsympathy ou which to
base ours. There is no hell upon earth like
a union where there is no love no respect,
no single thought or feeling shared in com-
mon -where one's nature revolts and one's
duty demands submission -where the sac,
redness of home is violated every hour until
the name becomes a mockery— 'Ile pauses
abruptly.
Lady Etwynde knows to what his words
refer -to where his thoughts have turned.
"And that was your fate -once," she sighs
softly. "And -I --judged you so herald -yd.!,
"You have more than atoned for that,"
he says, fondly, as he looks down at the
bright head upon his breast. "After the
waters of sorrow have been drunk again and
again, how doubly sweet are those of joy a'
"And you are sure you are quite happy?"
she whispers.
"Happy I I could bless God on my knees
every hour I live for giving me -you."
A sudden rush of tears dims the brilliant
eyes. She trembles for very happiness.
Resting there against that faithful heart,
knowing herseIt beloved almost to idolatry,
herself answering that strong and perfect
passim with devotion as strong and perfect
as its own, bow can she be otherwise than
glad as humem life can seldom count glad-
iiess -full of a deep, silent, wordless bliss
that steeps her in a trance of exquisite
content? , •
But even amidst her own joy her heart
feels a sudden pang of regret for the friend
she loves so dearly.
"Poor Lauraine !-what she has missed!"
she sighs. -
"She hacl not your constancy, my derl.
ing 1" murmurs her lover, tenderly. • " To
think that for all these years you held me
shrined in the proud little heart that I
thouaht so cold med unforgiving once 1 How
true it love was yours !"
"It had need to be true art was sa unfor.
giving," she says, smiling up into the deric
eyes that search her own. When I think
of. those long, veaateceyears----
e
" Do not think of them," he interrupts,
passionately, "or think of them only to
crowd int.° those that are to come, a- double
portion of ehe love they haVe missed."
And with his ape on hers she is content,
indeed, that it should be eo.

Alote in her rooms in Paris, Lady Jean

aine, end though sae knows her rival is
ooddemned to a speoies of exile, and that
she is as unhappy as 5 woman can well be,
that in no way comforts her for the fact of
her own defeat.
Her position is full of peril and uncer-
tainty. She cen no longer float on the
smooth watere of Society, for Society i$
shocked and outraged by her husband's mis.
deeds, and au ill odour clings to her name.
The people she gathers round her now are
not at ell the class of people she prefers.
Needy foreigners, seeonclerate celebrities ;
Englishmen with shady reputations and
tarnished title ; Frenen Bohemians who
have known and admired her in the 'days
of her success -all these congregate together
at her little rooms in the Rue Victoire ; awl
among them all she looks for some willing
tool who will lend himself to her hand and.
work out her schemes.
But for long she looks in vain.
The winter pastes on. The cool, fresh
days of eerly Spring are heralded by bursts of
eau:thine, by the Leafier budding leafage of
the Boulevards, by the scents and hues ot
flowers that are piled up in the !gaskets of
the rnerket women, and fill the windows of
the A'tfrielA with brilliance and beauty
once again.
And zu the springtime, suddenly and
without warning, _Lady. Jean's soh me of
veogeance conies to her as a vision of possi-
bility at last, for who should, mime to I'aris
but Is.ezth Athelstone.
He has been wintering in the south of
France. He Comes to the gay city with no
set purpose or desire. He is alone, and
melancholy, and depresssed. Ho thinks he
will have fortnighv 101 Paris, and then
start for that long projected American tour,
and the first peeeou he -sees and grceta in
Paris is the Lady Jean.
She has never been a favorite of his, and
ho is inclined to be curt and avoid. her.
But she has other schemes in her head, arid,
unlees a man is absolutely discourtootte, it
is not easy for him to tale a women who
has sot her mind upon deluding him, especi-
ally a woman clever and keen as the Lady
jegt Li very quiet, very subdued. All the
fastness amil wildness seenai to hew evap-
orated. She tells him of her bereavement,
her troubles. She apeake sympathisingly
of his own, and brings in Leuraine's name
so gently and gralually that he cannot take
alarm at it. ln the end he accepts an laid-
tation to her house, and finds everything so
subluel, so decorons, in such perfect., gooti
taste, that he thinks Lady Jean's widow-
hood has produced most salutary effects,
In Ms present mood piety and fastness
would have jarred upon and diegusted him,
As it is, mills tonal down, chastened,
ing, and in perfect taste. He comes
again and yet again. Latly Jean
keeps the foreigners, peel Shady adven-
turers, and the Bohemian element carefully
out of his sight, and she bonsai treats him
with that consideration and deference al-
ways flattering to a young man's feelings
when displayed by a woman older than
himself, and still beautifuland admired. She
mentions the Vavasoure casually, Leuramee
as being immersed in worldly gaieties, Sir
Francis as being abroad, at Monte Carlo.
The latter fact is true, he having proceeded
there in disgust at lier obstinacy and cold -
mess, and yet not liking to break with her
entirely, because elm happens to be the only
woman of whom he bas never tired.
The fortnight passes, and Keith still lin.
gers. Life has no speelal object for him at
present. The spring has turned cold and
bleak and the American tour may await his
owe convenience.
One evening he comes to Lady Jean by
special. invitation. There are a few people
there ; there is a little music, and it little
"piny," not very high, nor very alarming
but Keith refuses it for it reason that no one
there guesses. Play had been a passion
with him once. Its dangerous excitement
bad lured him into the most terrible scrape
of that "wild youth" to which Mrs. Doug-
las is so fond. of alletling. Once free of that
early trouble, be had solemnly promised
Lauraine never to touch card or dice again,
and he has kept his word.
Lady Jean does not press him, though
she looks surprised athis refusal. She sits
with him in a dim corner of the room, and
lures him on to talk to her as helms done of
late.
Watching them with anger and suspicion
are two fierce eyes, the oyes of a certain
Connt Kerolyski, of whom no one knows
anything except that he is a Hungarian, an
expert card player, and it deadly shot.

One of the iateresting results ot the recent
experiments it England in photographing
flyaeg bullets has been to show- that the
disturbance in the a,ir 'travels faster than
the bullet itself. The photographs exhibit
air waves in advance of the bullets, even
when the latter are moving faster than the
velocity of sound. In one case where the
ballet was moving considerably faster them
sound travels in the air it was preceded by
an atmospheric disturbance which, at the
moment the photograph was taken, was
half at inch in advance of the point of the
bullet. Even when the bullets were travel-
ing four times as fast, as sound the atmos-
pheric disturbance kept ahead of them.

The cable brings the news thet Olga De

visit America.
This feanouslimesiam worna.n 18 generally
believed to be a spy in the pear of the Mus-
covite Government. Those who are as.
quainted with her and her resources assert
that there ie no other way of accounting for
the outlays of mouey which she expends
with such lavislinese for the furthereuce of

These, speaking broadly, consist of a

pose she has visitea and reeided in England
for several yeara. There she exercised such
a favorable influence over Gladstone that
his attention to her excited some very
malliokras comment upon the part of the
Tory press.
.A.t a meeting held at St. James' Hall, at
which both Mme. Novikoff and Gladstone
wore preaept, a little incident happened
that attracted considerable attention. The

On Hedley Wheary's return from the mill
his four-year-old son ran up to him and said,
"Mother's dead; Eddie killed her with an
axe." Immediately afterwards the murderer
came out of the house, took Hedley'a
span of horses (put in the barn), and
fled. When Hedley entered the home

BONES OF EXTINCT XONSTERS.

The greateat discovery of fossil remains
ever made in any part of the southern hemi-
sphere has just taken place in one of most.
Waren and forbidding localities in the north-
east of South Australia. The animals,
whose remains are included m this great
discovery, are principally of the extinct
species, the diprotodon, a species of mar-
supial closely allied to the Australian kan-
garoo. in most respects, however, the
cliprotodon, during its terrestrial existence,
bore rather a resemblance to the hippopot-
amus than to any form of mo now existent
in the lands of the antipodes. Besides the
bones of these animals there have been
found some, remains of the gigantic bird,
dinornis, now extinct.
No fewer than eighty diprotodons are
represented by the bones already unearth-
ed, and it is evident from the close proxim-
ity of the localities where the chief col.
leetions have been made that the struggle
for existence must have been particularly
severe at the time -when so many creetures
of the same species were driven to take
