CHAPTER XXIIL It was evident on this 15th of jobs that Saint Swithin remembered hie ancient grievance. Mrs. Bevington sat near the window of her drawing -room, and every now and thou as she raised her eyes from the paper the was reading the sight that mots them was that of a Continued down- pour, so violent that a series of small pad- dirs were forming on the gravelled terrace below. It was an extraordinary change, or two days before, on Ruth Byrant's wedding morning, the sky had been a, cloudless blue and the saushine intense and corching. There was no one to see her, and Mrs. eying ton yawned from, sheer weariness of as dreary outlook. She wondered whether y mother had been tried. as she had been, bad son, a profligate or a drunkard, a an who had got into a card. kmanclal and had en sent to Coventry by society—these use oases that Mrs. Bevington had heard. ; and she had always pitied the mothers f such sons, and, had been pe.thetio over e sad mistakes which she considered they ust have made in bringing up their black seep. Her own case was so very different e had taken eel possible care, and her n waa in her eyes ahnosb perfect. If eginald's father had, not made the mistake placing him with that farmer, with. at taking the trouble to ascertain hether the farmer had an attractive ughter, all would have gone as s mother wished it to go, and by this me Reggy would have been the contented usband of Clara Stratton. Poor, dear eggy had been so badly used, first by this esigning farm -house beauty, who had idently expected. to marry him, and then the Strettons, who had broken off his gagement to Clara when some gossip ern Purley had reached them respecting s ‚visits to Miss Bryant. Reginalcl'e carelessness had enabled Mrs. evington to read several of Ruth's letters d the anxious mother plainly saw in them at the girl was either very designing or ery innocent; she also saw that Ruth elieved herself to he engaged to Regin- Id, She sighed with relief as a tall, very tylish-looking woman came gliding into he room and sank into a luxurious chair eside her hostess. Mrs. Bevington looked &dig at the :new-eorner ; she had few eorets that she did not share with this ousin ; she knew that she could safely peak of her troubles to one who had before ow confided. to her safe -keeping some de- idecily "risky" passages of her own life. Lady Emily Walton had married young and she had had an unhappy married ex - stance she was now middle-aged and free and for the first time since her widowhood he had come to stay at Bevington Manor. house, She moved so well, the poise of her head as so perfect, that the mingled grace and dignity of her tall figure gave more pleasure o the observer than the contemplation of mere pretty face would have given. She reseed well, too—just now in black, though without the show of deep mourning that might have been thought consistent with he loss of a husband who had died rather less than a year ago. There was fashion enough in her dress to snit even an exacting person in such a matter, but it was fashion adapted to the person of the wearer, in - teed of the wearer being adapted to the rules of fashion. It must, however, be said that Lady Emily's figure, whether it were the -product of Art or Nature, set off everything she wore to the best advantage. Sue had large and bright eyes—they were perhaps rather hard and audacious in expression ; a mouth that looked as greedy as that of a fish, though her lips were still ed and. her teeth white; a large and singu- larly thin, aocioiliae nose, which seemed bent on acquiring. It was perhaps this acquisitive expression that prevented her from being handsome. "Sighing again, Rosamond?" she wheeled herself nearer her cousin, her skirt falling in long, sweeping folds that would have delighted a figure -painter. It is always the same tune that you sigh to—that naughty, darling boy ?" "In a way, yes; I was sighing about Rangy. I have just discovered a new fea- ture in the case. You will say I ought to rejoice at it, but I'm not sure, I want you to advise me what to do." — LEGAL.

The only poseible out. corns of the situation was for the young fellova to fall in love ; the girl, you may be sure, had already set hint the example. Yost may trust me, Rosamond; I once wrote a novel and. regularly got up the sub. jets of love, Bless you! I know all about it." ?elm Bevington gave a meaning smile, "If Rego were not my sou, I suppose the bewitehmeot,' as you call it, would seem amusing to ins, Now, I feel he was sinned against by being allowed to stay so long at Appledore." "And it seems to me, on the contrary, that at his age it wae a mistake to interfere at all. You were hardly so judicious s.s usual, perhaps, when you summoned the young fellow home in such a hurry. You simply precipitated. matters. Probably had you left them alone the love -melting would have come to the father's knowledge, there would have been a scene and an ex- planation, the farmer would have seen that naturally Reggy did not mean marriage, and he would have kick ed him out of the house. Some of that sort of people are straitlaced, you know, and they express their ideas rudely. An expulsion of that sort would have cured our fastidious Reggy, you, may be sure; or else and I believe this is more likely, the fattier would have kept his eyes shut, and in the end Reggy would have tired of his mistress. Friction of any sorb always rekindles thIst sort of flame. I fear, from what you say, that Reggy still hankers after the girl." "Just after his engagement to Clara, about a month ago, he went to see this Ruth Bryant." Mrs. Bevington sighed as she spoke. "That is the reason the Strettons give for breaking off the engage - mut. Mr. Streeton's, gout makes him so very irritable, you see. Her consul laughed. " Everythin g comes right if one knows how to wait. I had a letter from Geraldine Vo.vasour this morning, and she tells me she was at Strat- ton laat Monday. Clara scarcely spoke, she says, and, looked wretched. Lowe Clara and her father alone, my dear, and she'll be only too happy to forgive her naughty boy when he gives up the farm beauty; you really think too much about such a trifle." She leaned back in her easy -chair and yawned; she was far more distinguished. looking than Mrs. Bevington was, but far less punctilious, except when she was on parade. She yawned now till her mouth looked like a pike's, and she put up one shapely hand before it and intrepidly cross- ed her long legs. Then, all at once she remembered Mrs. Bevington's words, and she looked bright again. "What did you say about a new feature in 'the bewitchment?' Please tell me am really interested. about it Mrs. Bevington glanced at the paper she had been reading. "The girl's marriage is announced in the local papers," she said ; "and there is a paragraph about the alarming illness of Mr. Byrant, the father, on the return of the wedding -party from churth." Lady Emily laughed. • Lady Emily's face brightened. She had a real regard for her cousin, but when she promised to come to Bevington she by no means intended to be the only visitor at the manor -house. On her arrival she hail been dismayed to find that Mr. Bevington was away yachting, and that no other guests were expected for a fortnight. She was, however, a thorough woman of the world, and, except toward the late husband, gifted with remarkable tact and good temper. At the sight of Mrs. Bevington's disturbed face she took a cheerful, almost jovial tope, and patted her cousin's shoul- der. There was something enlivening in the prospect of a new feature in what she named "Reggy's bewitchment." "The first thing to be attended to, dear child, is your forehead. Lord 1 Rosamond, if you frown in that way when you are puzzled you will have wrinkles before you are a year older. Look at my forehead.! I never allow anything to fret me seriously; life isn't worth it, dear. I want you to consider the; little affair reasonably, You decline to treat it as an affair° de cceur ; iii my opinion it was merelythe consequence of propinquity.A. charming young fellow i —for when he s in good sprite Reggy is very charming, even to a wornam of my stataing—Reggy than, fin& himself in an out-of-the-way country place, with no one to talk to accept an occasional plough -boy and the fanner who is hie Instructor in agrioultural matters, and who probably discourses front Morning till night on the respective merits of ahorthorns end of eouthdown sheep, The 'unlucky pupil gets these stibjects on hit nerves ; / fancy I can see the poor felloW yawning, All At once the much enddratig mad wholly bored youth finds out that a very handsome girl is living under the same rood Their first meeting mud have been a complete coup de theatre. Think how enchanted the girl must hate "Capital l" she said ; "I am so glad she's married—for your sake, I mean. I confess I had become in teres ted in thelittle romance. Now, of course, it is. over. Baggy will be disgusted at being set aside for some clod- hopper. Be will be tiresome, of course ; but you will know how to manage him—just a case for your judicious handling, Rosa- mond! My poor husband used to say you were perfect at dotting your i's and crossing your t's." Mrs. Bevington's face had cleared at the first part of her cousin's sentence, "I had not thought of it in that way; ray fear was that as Reggy likes the father he would. go over to inquire for him, and. then he would see the girl. There is no mother, and this Ruth said to be such a devoted daughter that of course she is at Appledore nursing him. I don't want Reggy to run the risk of seeing her." "You forget the husband, the clod -hopper surely he will be to the fore !" "He is not a clod -hopper, Emily ; he is a Mr. Clifford. I remember he lunched here some time ago. He is I believe, looked up to in the country. He knows about lead and that sort of thing—quite well to do, should think." Lady Emily sat upright and looked very cheerfully at her cousin. "You need not worry yourself at ell; this sort of man knows everything middle. curse people are always so clever, don't you know? The girl has married him because he is well-off and well -considered. For her own sake she will not do anything risky FM soon after marriage. I really advise you to allow Reggy that newspaper. Some kind friend is sure to tell hint of the marriage. I find people so extremely considerate in that way.' She thecked a sigh, and then as she looked out of the window she said, "Here comes Reggy, streaming with water. I hall depart, so as not to meet him. I would as soon come in contact with Bruno after a swim in the Severn." She left the room, smiling at the coming Interview between mother and son ; she felt sure that it would be stormy. Mean- while Mrs. Bevington, with a lightened heart, began to consider how she could best tell Reginald that Ruth Bryant had become Mrs. Clifford. CHAPTER XXIV The newspaper report was a true one. On his return from church Philip Bryant had suddenly turned giddy,and soon alter a second stroke of paralysis had seized him. This time the doctor was not so hopeful of even partial recovery. The insensible man was laid on his bed, to all appearance dead; and Ruth, who had hastily changed her wedding -gown, took her place by his side. Michael Clifford gave all necessary di sections and then rode over so Purley to countermand orders and to order what was wanted in these changed circumstances. "Man proposes," he said to himself, not so bitterly now as when Dorothy's illness had. summoned him away from Purley ; ha said it to -day with it Sort of reverent fear. The shock had at first been very great, and dis- appointment keen almost beyond bearing - bet his ride gave him time for thmight and whea he had executed his various com- missions And had evrittee certain necessary letters connected with this change of plans he left calmer and mare resigned. He was almost tranquil as he retie back in the evening to Appleclore. Be grieved, for Ruth's sorrow and for his friend, bee the doctor tem him that under any manna stances this must have come before long. Michael reminded himself how ardently he had witihed, when he met Ruth on her return from Newbridge, that the marriage could be delayed, so that lie might have more chance of winning hit wifee love beforehand. It seemed to him a selfish idea, and yet he knew that during the farmer's:Whites, and in the Interval tlikt TER TM must elapse before Ruth woold be free to f Immo and live with hint at Purely, he should have ter more opportunity of proving his devotion than he might have found in the little wedding holiday he had planned at the seaside, Ruth was his wife ; be was therefore joetified by duty, as well at by ieenne.tien, in making her claims on hire paramount to those of any other person, He did not believe his poor friend would long survive this last shock. Michael thud- dered as he remembered the scene, If he heed not been standing near, Philip Bryant must have fallen on the stories that paved the porch. This wee a sad beginning to his darling's n'etv life, but he hoped -that time would console her, and that little by little she woold learn to °are for his love, and at last woold return it. Meantime he could. nob expect to come between her and. her father. He went into Appledore by the farm- yard ; he clicl not velsh to disturb his wife, and he wanted to speak to john Bird, who was to have been left in charge of the farm- house and its accessories, conjointly with Mrs. Voce, till the arrival of the new ten- ants. Bird was standing in the yard chewing a straw between his strong, white teeth, His luxuriant brown hair and beard shone ruddy in the warm sunlight, his male brown eyes glowed with color ; he looked. the personis fication of happy leisure as he stood with the sleeves of his blue shirt partly rolled up and showing far more brawn on his amps than hie string -tied fustian trousers vouch- ed for in respect of legs. He made a superb contrast to the tired, jaded looking man who came up to him. Bird felt more awe for Mr Clifford than be had ever felt for his master. He knew well enough that Mr. Bryant was willing to accept eye -service, and to take the will for the deed ; while Bird had seed for himself that Mr. Clifford looked into the inside of everything, from the building of a rick to the cleanliness of a byre or a pig -stye. Bird and Sally Voce disagreed about Miss Ruth's husband, and Bird, who had promised himself at lee... a week of delight- ful idleness, was now half surly when .Mr. Clifford spoke to hint. Michael was too much absorbed in his own thoughts to notice the man's manner. This is a sad ending to a wedding, Bird," he said, " but you will get some supper and a cake for the children. You will of course go on here as usual till Mrs. Clifford thinks it safe to move her father." " Thank'ee, sir!" Bird stood looking after him as he passed on to the house. " Mrs. Clifford1" he gave a coarse laugh, "Hint seems mighty pat wiv the new title. I'mthinkietwad ha' hen different wint'other one Miss Ruth ood ha' lef t her father for a day or so, Mrs. Worm and the doctor's enough for the poor chap till he comes to hisself, and. that won't -be just yet, the doctor told. me so. I knows what 1 knows, an' if you man," he nodded his head toward Michael, as he passed in by the door of the house -place, "I slays, if you man, as takes so much on hisself, if he cared as he should care for Miss Ruth, like t'other one did, why he'd g0 in an' he'd take her right away, he would, till such time as the poor old master comes to ; an' my miens is of the same mind as me, and that don't often happen, welcher." Bird had that day drank Miss Bryant's health in so many mugs of ale that it may be fairly supposed he was not hi need of any more or of the plentiful supper whith Ruth had provided, but which she had now sent word should. be taken to the men's houses in place of the general meal she had planned, and which Mrs. Voce was to have presided over at the farmhouse. The loss of this convivial gathering had disappoint- ed George Bird. "TM the jollity, not the drink, as I craves arter," he growled, as he che 'Wed the golden straw blade. Ruth met her husband at the door of the sick -room. She looked more cheerful than he expected, but she shook her head when he asked her if there was any decided im- provement in her patient. She led the way into the hall, leaving the door ajar behind her. "Hardly," she said. "I hoped you would not have come back ; it is so sadly dull for you. You see I dare not leave him ; I have a feeling that consciousness will return more quiealy this time, though Dr. Buchan did not seem to think so. I fancied just now that there was a slight movement in one of the eyelids. I must go back directly, please ; but if you really mean to stay I will give orders to Sally and tell her so." "Do you think I could leave you, my darling ?" He put his armround her, and his passion- ate kiss made Ruth shrink away from him with almost a shudder. ' For the time she had forgotten that he was her husband. "Do nee trouble about anything, darling 1" he said; "Mrs, Voce and I are old ac- quaintances. She will make it all right for me." She did not ask hint to come and look at her father and he did not intrude; some- thing warned him that it was wiser not to assume any rights over his wife beyond the right of aiding and protecting her to the utmost of his power. "I will come and see how he is before I turn in," he said cheerfully ; "and darling, take all the rest you can ; you will not he fit to go on nursing to -morrow unless you rest." He said this so tenderly that she felt as- hamed of her harsh, cold feelings towards him ; she looked up with a smile. "I promise you I will be careful," she said ; "but loan rest better if I am left quite alone. I am not at all afraid, and if I want help I -will call you." She heId out her hand, and he felt himself dismissed ; he raised it to his lips so they parted. (To BB 001ITTNTIED) His Exact Size. There is it kind of selfish smartness which makes a man think well el himself, but which renders him a laughing -stock never- theless. One rainy day, when a shoe store was full of ousternerti a man entered hur- riedly, and Sneaking to a clerk who was fitting a lady to overshoes, said, "Can you show me some of those cork sole boots you ildvertiee ? I ant in great bate." Excdsing himself te the lady, the clerk proceeded to weep deson the new-eotrier. Pair after pair of boots was tried oh, and finally a perfect fit was eeefired. "Nova What make aim titre boots ?" its- qnired the man, "They fit mg like a glove, Just write down the make, with the exact width and length." The ialeemeel atti as requested, and the man dre* on his old shoes and started for the door. "Don't you Want the boots, sir ?" inquir• ed the surprised clerk. "Oh no," responded the inert; "I :lust wanted to get my size.

This seriously disturbed Mr. Wedgwood. The boy at first was shocked by the nobleman's irreverence, but Soon became fascinated by his flow of skeptical drollery, and laughed heartily at the witty points made. When the round of the factories had been made the toy was dismissed, and Mr Wedgwood selected a beautiful vase of unique pattern, and recalled the long and careful process of its making, as they had just seen it at the vats and ovens.

None but those who forget how much the country owes to religious feeling .will ever trifle with it in the young, or sneer at a "pious education." A single scoffing speech may do mischief for a lifetime. A BAD HALF BREED. Burned the House or the Magistrate Who Sentenced Man. William Louiselle, a half breed, for years past has been the terror of Drummondville, Que. He is a man possessed of vengeful tendencies and the only lawshe knows are his own. Mr. William Mitchell is a magis- trate of Drummondville. In 1893 Mr. Mitchell sent Louiselle to. jail for a long term for an assault on Mrs. Louiselle. Louiselle swore revenge. Soon after the term of Louiselle's imprisonment had expir- ed, the house and outbuildings of Mr. Mitchell were destroyed by fire. No life was lost but the damage was heavy. Alter this Louiselle was again arrested and con. demned for another assault. He escaped from jail. Then the whole neighborhood arose in arms against the man. They sus- pected that Louiselle was responsible for the burning of Mr. Mitchell's building but they had no proof. Authorities of the township came to Mr. Silas Carpenter, of the Canadian Secret Service, for help in the matter. Mr. Car- penter undertook the case. By one of his agents Louiselle was recaptured and put back in jail. " Now," said the people, "we have got tins human tiger, won't we keep him caged ?" Mr. Carpenter undertook that too. The methods employed by that astute detective are unique. He sent a man to jail, charged with something that did not reflect much upon the character of the man employed—to the same jell which held the terrorLouiselle. He be- came friendly with the supposed incendiary and notes were exchanged. The law was reviled, and both eternal enemies to the baneful system. But Mr. Carpenter's agent suffered ten days' confinement before Louiselle took him into entire confidence. Then he confessed fully and with infinite satisfaction to both that he was the hero that set fire to the house and building of Mr. Magistrate Mitchell so long ego. At the sitting of the Court of Queen's Bench, in the district of Arthabaska, the other day, Loniselle was sentenced to im- prisonment for life and the terrorized rejoice. a. A Grewsome Necklace. Lady Burton, the widow of the famous translator and traveler, lives in Baker street London. Perhaps the most interesting of the relics with which the lemma is stored is a grewsome necklace of human bones given by the king of Dahomey to Sir Rich- ard Burton when he made him brigadie general of his corps of amazons. The necklethwas designed to be a present to the new commanders, favorite squaw. Lady Burton is said to have viewed her husband's appointment with jealousy at first, but when the personally inspected the female warriors all mush feelings instantly vanished. Boys and Men.
