Sweet Miss Margery
She leaned hack lengetilly in her eitair
and somehow the thought struck Mar-
gery that she bad never seen the little
room look so small and shabby before.
The delicate gleam of Vane's; white gar-
ments tontrasteh stropgly with her own
dingy, dust-steined black dress, the
placid beauty of Miss Charter's' • face
hhellielt hack the thrill of pain to her
heart. How different they werel Who
WAS she, to compete with such a woman.
She roused }wolf trent her thoughts
es she met Vane's cote clear eyes watch-
ing her.
"I beg your partisan," she said quick -
1.Y, yet With unepeakable grace. "You
have had a long drive; may I give you
a cup of tea—or perhaps yeu would
prefer some Milk ?"
She toyed towar4 an inner room; but
Vane stopped her.
"Neither, thank you," elle replied cold-
ly—she was growing more and more
annoyed every moment. See was being
treated with every courtesy, with all re-
gard for etiquette, as though her host-
ese were a duchess inatead of a common
village girl! It was insupportable; she
must hasten to break down that calm ex-
terior which irritated tier beyond mea-
sure. "Neither, thank youe: she repeated,
"I shall not etay long. It is, as you say,
a tedious drive; but my cousin, Stuart
Crosbie, wished me to see you."
She bent her head to look at her
flounce, but not before she had, seen the
girl's sliglit frame wince and her cheeks
grow paler.
"That shot went home!" she told her'
Margery stood immovable, her hand
still grasping the chair. A few moments
before she had thought it impossible to
suffer greater mental pain than she had
endured; TIQW she was experiencing
pangs edit greater, for her wound was
being probed, Weak, faint from want
of food as she was, she determiped to be
brave, to stand firm before this woman
—her rival.
"1 scarcely know how to begin," con-
tinued Vane, with well -assumed kindness
and concern. "It is a delicate subject;
yet I could not well refuse Stuart." She
hesitated for an instant, then held out
her well -gloved hand. "Miss Daw," she
said impulsively, "will you forgive me' if
anything I may say in the course of our
conversation should vex you? I -would
not indeed willingly eause you any pain."
Margery's eyes were fixed on „the
golden -tinted trees .beyond the gardeu:
she did not notice the outstretched hand.
"Why should you. cause me pain'?" she
asked, in reply. "Th,ere ia nothing in
common between you and me."
Vane let her hand drop to her side;
den pain, and her whole frame shake
this girl's control?
"I am glad you judge me rightly," she
responded, "for I am and have been
much distressed by ray errand. Stuart
has asked me, Miss Daw to express to
you his sincere sympathy In the loss you
have sustained by the death of Mre.
Morris. He begs nae to tell you that he
trusts you will apply at the castle now
that you are left without a guardian.
He has enlisted his mother's good -will
on your behalf, and he sends you this
small sum to assist toward anything you
may require."
She held out a small packet as she
finished, and had the satisfaction of see-
ing Margery's lips twitch as with sud-
den pain, and her IN. -hole frame shake'
with passion beneath the insult,
"It was his intention to 'write to you
As far back as last Thursday," went on
Vane, "but he had the. misfortune to
break his right arm, and writing was
impossible; therefore, as he though you
would require some explanation from
hint, he asked me to come."
"1 thenk you," fell from, Margery's
lips in cold strained tones.
"Then I may "leave this?" Vane said
Interrogatively, rising and placing the
packet on the table, "And you will pro-
mise to apply at the castle with respect
to anything concerning your future? I
believe, hut I am not sure, that Mrs.
Crosble has already written to some
Lady about a situation for you as maid."
Mergery made no answer, and Miss
Charteris waited a few moments, and
then moved to the door, feeling strange-
ly uncomfortable, and by no means vic-
torious. She looked back as she stood at
the door.
"You have no reply?" she asked.
"Mr. Croshie's explanittion requires
none," Margery answered, still in the
same cold even tones.
"Then 1 will wish you good -after-
noon."
"S ta y I" cried Matgery ; and Vane
turned toward her. "You have forgot-
ten your packet," Margery added, point-
ing to the table. ,
Vane took it, up without a word, Then
a thought seemed to strike her, and she
turned the money round and rotand in
her hand, hurriedly.
"Perhaps you will writs to Stuart ev
to his ..nother?"
Margery'e eyes met Vane's in an 'un-
flinching gaze.
she repeated, with urtutter-
title scorn and pride in the word. "There
te indes 1 little in common between us.

Vane's browi contracted. She 'nrned
and walked quickly to the carriage, and

This thought rankled for some time;

ing calmer. She reflected that she had
yet to plan her future. She pushed the
chair to the door -way and sunk into it.
The- sun was sinking behind the woods;
the air was oft and balmy—its touch
seemed like a kiss upon Ler cheek. The
musical note of a bird twittering its
"good-night"emid the leaves, the bab-
ble of the dietant Meek, soothed her.
• She leaned her weary head against the
door, and began to think.
One idea stood out clearly — she ntust

ture to herself a future in the village
where her eyes would rat on Stuart avail
lug on that cold, cruel woman—where
she must sit down beneath a repetition

spirit tamest to raadness. No; there ,Vas
no other course onen to her—she must
go, and soon. Ah, if she could but rush
away at once, and let the veil of dark-
ness cover her humiliation! But whither
and to•whom could she go? Reuben could
not take her with him. Mrs. Bright
would welcome.ber* for awhile; but she
could not meet Robert—poor Robert!
Like a flash of light in darknesa came
the remembrance of Miss Lawson, and
the letter from her sister.
Would it be too late? It
was not a week ago. This must he her
chance. She too hurriedly, her limbs
trembling, and tied on her bonnet, She
would go to Miss Lawton at once; the
place might -still be vacant; she might
start perhaps in the morning! The
thought lent her strength. She forced
herself to eat some food, though every
nerve in her body was quivering frora
excitement.
The simple viands, the glass of milk,
seemed to ptit ..new life into. her; she
left, a message for Reuben at the next
• cottage, and started in feverieh haste
for the rectory, losing all thought of
fatigue in the rush of eager desire and
hope that burned. within her.
Miss Lawson was seated' at her win-
dow, writing, when her eyes fell on
Margery's figure eiming rapidly up the
path. The governess noted the girl's
pale cheeks, her worn look of pain, and
her heart thrilled with sympathy.
"Well, child?" she said, as the girl
came in.
"Miss Lawson—" began Margery, and
then her rapid walk told on her, mad she
had reeled to a chair.
The governess rose, untied her bon-
net, and held: a glass Of water to her
lips. She saw at a glance that ono -
thing was wrong; but she asked noquestious.
"You have walked too quickly, as
usual, Margery," was all she observed
as she turned away with the glass.

added slowly, "You remember what you

THE PATIENT WAITER.
Professor W. Lawson Tall, apropos of
the new serum cure for hay fever, said
at.a medieval banquet in Denver:
'The cure is the result of patient toil.
Indeed, when I think of the patient_
waiting involved in the perfecting of this
cure, I am reminded of Dr. Bob. Sawyer's
ante-roont.
Dr. Bob Sawyer stepped proudly into
Itis ante -room one day. There were
quite eight or nine persons there. And
Dr. Bob, looking from one face to an-
other with complaisance, said:
"Well, who comes first? Who's been
waiting the longest?'
"'Here, Doc—that's me,' said Snip, the
tailor, rising and flourishing his unpaid
bill, 'I've been waiting over eighteen
mouths!'"

MUINARD'S Liniment in my family ler

A loaf of Bread of Daily Grace,
A flask well filled with joy;
A word Of cheer, a helping hand,
Some good to give ,or share,

A hope a mile, a prayer.
And in the Plate of Duty Done,
Beeide the Door of Home,
You'll find the House of Happine.s,s—

REMEDY FOR "THE GROUCHES."
air wintfred Sackville Stoner, Jr.)
Of all the dreaded bugs and germs that
in this earth abound.
No bugs In greater number have ever
Yet been found
Nor looked upon with terror more by big
folks and by small
Than grouch bugs, whieh-are awful pests
and come to ohe and all.
They make us, oh, so cranky that we
would like to yell
And think of all the horrid things about
our friends to tell,
When other folks are smiling the grouch
bug's victim mug;
When other folks are dancing the grouch
sick heave big, sighs.
A great and noted doctor says the grouch
bug is but found
Within the torrid climate where heat
waves will abound,
And that the bug will never live in wom-
an, babe or child;
But always seeks a man's stout frame,
and makes him cross and wild.
But though I'm young I truly think that
this is not Quite true,
For well I know some little girls, and
boys and ladies, top,
Who have the awful grouches and get
Quite fiercely mad,
SO that they not like demohe who never
can be glad,
My daddy says the only cure which he
would alwaya u$a
For folks uto got the groaches, and
other folks abuse,
Would be to give a ducking, with water,
freezing cold,
So that they'd be so chilly they could-
n't even scold.
But for the kiddies of my age who let
this bad bug in,
Be recommends the touchini of peach
limb to bare akin.

CHICAGO DIVORCES.
In the City of Chicago, in. June 392
divorees were granted to the issuance of
3,850 marriage licenses. In other terms,
there were more than one-tenth as
many divorces as prospective marriages.
Agaie, for twenty person$ who got so
far aloug the line of courtship as to
apply for the legal power to wed—a
resolution frequently not carried out,
as testified by the unused licenses—two
persons finally and completely broke the
tie the others ought to make.
. Compared to other years, here are the
figures for the month; and it should be
borne in mind that June is, of all the
months of the year, the one in width
marriage is at its heIght:
Marriage
Year. Licenses. Divorces,
1909 3,305 322
1910 „ 3,810 297
1911 . , 3,850 392
Three years' total.. 10,971 1,011
A somewhat new and unusual message
of Tune!
June, Nil, can show only thirty-four
more -marriage licenses than were issued
in June of the preceding year, but it
shows ninety-five additional divorces.
For the first time in its history the
city of Chicago shows a divorce rate
greater than ten per eent of the mar-
riage licenses.

Archbishop Ryan's Diplomacy.
The late Archbishop Ryan, of Phila-
delphia, says The Housekeeper, was a
diplomat of the first order, and was pos-
sessed of a full share of Celtic wit and
kindly humor.
Befere the Catholic Standard and the
Catholic Times, were combined to form
one publication there was inuelt rivalry
and much controversy between their
proprietors and readers as to which
was the more truly xepresentative Ro-
man Catholic organ in Philadelphia.
Each sought eagerly to gain the official
indorsement of the Archbishop. On one
oceasion a prominent layman tried to
trap him into a statement aa to -which
of the two publications he preferred.
'Well, I will give you my opinion,"
said the Archbishop deliberately; "it
Is certain that the Standard is far
ahead of the times, and it ls equally
certain that the Times is much above
the standard. Therefore I prefer to
regard as most worthy the one whieh
is thus proved to be superior."
