' Not more so than you deserve, I imagine. I have often thought you must feel it very dull—you so young and pretty—pardon me—to be shut up here. Have you any brothers or sis- ters, Naomi?' 'Only one brother, and he is very young; but I have four: sisters—two older, and two younger than myself. Papa is a clergyman m one of the poor- est London suburbs. His salary isnot large enough for us all, and that is the reason I am here.' 'And your sisters, are they also in situations?' she asked. • ' The two eldest are; the others are not old enough, and mamma re- quires one of them at home, for we keep only a very small servant,' She did. not ask more. I longed to inquire something about herself or her people, but did not like. In spite of her frankness, she could be very reticent when she chose, and she never allud- ed, to her home in any way. Although so fond of walking about the grounds, she had never yet been outside the gates, nor did, she mani- fest any desire to see the village or go to the church on Sundays. I had. tried to persuade her to accompany me the first Sunday, but she laugh- ingly said she got quite enough of re- ligion at home; and her aunt did not press her to go, but seemed. rather re- lieved at her staying in. She, like the Professor, alloeved her niece het own way almost in everything. Our rooms were on the first land- ing. Miss Selwyn's was on the opposite side of the corridor from her uncle's and from Mrs. Farquharson's, and looked to the back, as did mine also. Between her room and mine was a large room .used for storing lumber. There was no balcony on this eide,but only in the front. The servants slept above. . One morning I rose as usual before breakfast and went out into the gar- den. Miss Selwyn frequently joined me; but this morning had apparently slept in. In my gardening operations I had slightly soiled my hands, and be- fore going in to breakfast, went up- stairs to wash them and tidy myself generally. To gain my own room I had to pass the door of Miss Selwyn's, which I noticed to be ajar. In pass- ing, I caught a glimpse of Miss Sel- wyn in her crimson morning gown standing before the toilet -table in her room, gazing into the looking -glass. In her hand she held what, to my aston- ishment, appeared to be a razor. She looked precisely like a person who had finished the operation of shaving, for 1 had seenpapa look just like that I was so surprised that I almost utter- ed. an exclamation, but recovered i mY- Iself, walked on, and gained my own room, shutting the door very softly. It might be perhaps a clay or two later. I retired to my room in the evening earlier than my wont, as I wished to finish a letter I eva,s writ- ing to mamma. My window was open half -way, for the everting was warm. My lettee being finished, but not feel- ing inclined for sleep, I was sitting at the window gazing icily into the moon- light. Every one was up -stairs, anal believed myself to be the only one awake in the house.

Still to a seientist, who is in the habit of studying the world's history from its rooks, a thousand years Is as but a day, and he gets into the habit of tossing decades about much seen her do so, I suppose? ' No, miss; but I have often felt the smell of cigars in her room in the mornings, and. have found pieces of cigar ends in the grate and en the ground outside her window. It is not O very lady -like thing; and Mrs. Far- quharson would be wild if she knew, I am sure.—The Professor, as you know, does not smoke, so the cigar ends could.not be his.' ' And what did Jane tell you, and your cousin?' I again inquired, not wishing to tell what had myself ob- served overnight. Mrs. Glass came a little nearer and spoke in a lower tone. 'You must have noticed, Miss Stuart, that Miss Selwyn has always kept very close to the house ever since she came. She has never been outeide the grounds, to ray know- ledge ; and you remember the strange way m which- she arrived when no one expected her. It is my opinion she is here hiding, and does not wish to be seen. I think she has run away from home, miss.' was so taken aback by this view of the eastter, that for a minute or two I could not say a word. 'What should make her leave her home?' I asked at length. -Fr don't know, min, of course, but perhaps a lover may have had some- thing to do with it. You can judge, after you hear what am going to tell you.—From anything ever I heve heard, any of Mrs. Farquharson's rela- tives are in poorer circumstances than herself, and. Mrs. Selwyn may have wished her daughter to marry some one she did not care for, for the sake of his money. I don't think Mrs. Sel- wyn and Mr. Farquharson are par- ticularly friendly, for they don't visit; and I did not know there was a MISS Selwyn till she arrived here that day. Of course I only came here eighteen months ago, and did not know AIX'S, Farquharson till then. Well, two days ago, jane Nein; down to the vil- lage to order some tbiege for the house.

He's found more things than he expected to grumble about." as a juggler would billiard balls. Prof. Spencer, however has a fund of interesting information regarding the early geographical history of the coun- try around Toronto and Niagara Falls. He is a Canadian, but has resided in the States for a long period, and was receatly engaged, for the Niegara Palls Park Commissioners of the State of New York in working out the duration of Niagara Falls and a history of the lakes, He has published a volume giv- ing the results of his researches. ONTARIO'S BURIED RIVERS. "These lake basins," remarked Prof. Spencer, " are simply the valleys of the tributaries of the ancient St. Lawrence. The original river ran across Lake Huron, down Georgian Bay and be- neath the oak hills which lie be- tween Toronto and. Lake Simcoe. 11 emptied into what is now the Ontario basin, a number of miles east of Tor- onto. To tlae north of the city are a great many buried valleys, which were formerly the beds of these tributaries. As the bottom of Lake Ontario is 500 feet below the sea level this necessitat- ed the formation of the Ontario valley to have been made when the continent was at an elevation of many hundred feet above the sea. The barrier at the eastern end of •Lake Ontario is partly an old channel filled up with drift, but in part has been a beige in the earth's crust below the outlet of Lake Ontario, so as to raise a great rocky barrier that causes the water to he held in the lake. A small barrier has been raised by some natural earth movement that has assisted in damming up the Erie basin. "These earth movements are going on slowly; thus the region about Toronto is rising about a foot and a half a cen- tury, while at the eastern end of the lake, or a litcle beyond, the movement amouets to nearly four feet a century. The effect of this movement has been to raise the water at the head of the lake. Thus the harbor at Toronto and Hamilton Bay were simply. low plains, which were filled by the backing of the lake. These movements in some parts of the Anierican continent have am- ounted to many thousand feet. "Lakes Huron, Michigan and Super- ior," continued Prof. Spencer, "former- ly emptied by a strait through the Ot- tawa 'Valley. At this time the Niagara river had its birth, but with a descent of only 200 feet. With the further ele- vation of the land the descent of the Niagara river reached 420 feet, but all this time only lake Erie flowed down it, with a volume of about one-quarter its present discharge.

At the same time the Ottewa outlet of the upper lakes was raised, so as to turn the waters into the Erie basin and in- crease the discharge of the river by fourfold. This variation in the volume .of the water of Niagara and in the height of the falls has had a great effect in modifying the recession of the cataract. If the ails had always re- ceded. at their present rate of about four feet a century their age would have been only about 9,000 years, but the variations which have been did- -covered have produced. the effect of in- creasing the age of the falls to about 32,000 years." Prof. Spencer then -told what Lake Ontario consisted of some 14,000 years ago. " The old shore line was from Bur- lington Heights across the Humber at Davenport, back of the C. P. R. sta- tion at North Toronto following the country north of Belleville to the Ot- tawa regions on the north and to Lake Champlain on the eolith." Thus, according to Prof. Spencer, where Toronto now stands was under water then, and this great sheet was called the Iroquois Gulf. "If the eleanging levels c,ontinne at the present rate," Prof. Spencer went on, "in five or sit hundred years hence the waters of Lake Erie will back up, empty into Lake Mrclaigan and d.own. by the way of Chicago into the Missis- sippi. 'The low lands at the head of Lake Ontario will he submerged, and Ontario will be a larger lake. It is to be some font thousand years, however, before the City of Hamilton is to be under water. FROM THE TEA PLANT TO THE TEA CUP IN ITS NATIVE PURITY. "Monsoon" Tes.is packed under the supervision °fele Tea growers, and is advertised and sold by them as a sample of the best qualities of Indian and Ceylon Teas. Per that reason they see that none but the • very fresh leaves go into Monsoon packages. That is why "Monsoon,' the perfect Tea, can be sold at the same price as inferior tea. It is put up in sealed caddies of 34 lb., x lb. and s lbs., and sold in three flavours at 402., soc. and 60c.
