ly in her own room. She felt that the
brother and sister had much to speak
of that was of moment to themselves,
and she shrunk with natural aelicacy
from intruding. She employed her morn-
ing in wilting a long lettereto Miss Law-
son and 'Wahl some hand-tiereens for

The afternoon sun tempted her to go
out, and she wandered round the garden

forget -the pain of her lost love was
too new yet. Alain and again she would
go 'back to those two days standing .out

the day of happiness unspeakable and
the day when the sun had shone on the
hot dusty lane and she had heard the

ness from her tender young heart for-.
ever. She watt content, gratefully con-
tent in her present life, for site lmadj
peace and affection; but, happy, she
whispered to herself, she 'could never he
again. , •
Her letters to Miss Lawson were
cheerful and chatty, but the governess
put them aside with a strange sensation
of pity. She felt that there was some
great sorrow, a serrow which Margery
must bear alone, that none could alle-
viate. She wag gratified at the succesa of
her pupil; and from her sister, Mrs, Fee
thergill, she heard of the warm friend-
ship that already existed between Lady
Enid Walsh and her companion. The
girl's heartfelt gratitude pleased and
touched Miss Lawson, and. she was glad
to know that her judgment of the maid's
character lia.d been right, that Margery
was all she had expected. Gratitude in-
deed was the warmest feeling in Mar-
gery's breast just now; she could
not thank her governes enough for as-
sisting her at •a time when she most
needed assistance. To have stayea at
Hurstley would have been worse than
death, she told herself. Ai she crept
away in the freshness of the morning,
she took her farewell of all that had
been dearest and best to her, ant, with
a courage born of despair, faced the un-
known futtule unfalteringly. Reuben
Morris had accepted with little surprise
the news of her hasty departure; he
knew that Miss Lawson loved the giri
in her quiet way, and would watch over
her, and her speed to be gone matched
Ids Own •plans, for the veseel started
three days earlier than he had eXpectect,
and there was no time to be lost.
Margery travelea up to the great city,
silent and corrowful, her hand stasped
in Reuben's with Miss Lawson by her
side. Not 'till she reached the docks,
which she had pleaded to be allowed to
areompany Reuben, did she learn that
Robert Bright, too, sailed away from
the old tountry in the same ship, and
the news was the last drop in her al-
ready overflowing cup of grief. She
spoke a few words to lain. urging him
to stay; but, when she learned.l"thal her
love was all- that mid keep she
was sileutt it was impossible -it coold
never be. So the two men went togeth-
er, and Margery stood beside Miss
Lawson, the tears 'Winging her eyes as

to 'dart whenever she likes. But yog-

"I?" gitesttoned the girl. "No, Lord
Court, I have no objection; it matters
ilttle to me where 1 am,"
He miet a quick, earnest glance at
her,
"You are youpg to Bey that."
Margery flushed; she had spoken um
reflectingly, and she regretted the
words as soon as they- were uttered.
"And wrong," she said, with bored
lightness. '7 Oen enjoy the change;
and anything that makes Lady Enid
happy is a great pleasure to lite."
Lord Court was silent; but he read
her aesunted manner rightly,. Ile blew
Margery's history well; still he felt
inetinctively It was not her orphan state
alone that had caused such a remark.
Margery was unaware of his covert
glances; she picked two or three leaves
from the trees as she passed and ar-
ranged them. in 'a cluster with an artless

earl observed, is they approached the

"I paint a little, but only Bowen,"
she returned,
"I used the brush a few years. ago,"
Lord Court said; "but I do nothing
now, and, with, the deeption of a few
Egyptian sketches, I have no drawinga
of my travels,"
He (melted the gate ae he spoke;
then, suddenly meeting the full gaze of
her wonderous eyes, he said almost in-
voluntarily;
"I* think I will paint you, if yet will
allow me,"
"I will sit to you Most willingly,"
Margery returned, smiling, "but only on
condition that you make a picture of
Lady Enid,"
It is a, bargain!" he cried; and Mar-
gery felt a thrill of aleaeure 1 Ids
words,
By this promise she knew she would
bringhappiness to the young sister -
happiness because her beloved Nugent
would be near her.
"Let us go and tell her at onee," she
said, turning her lovely face, flushed
with pleasure, to him. "Ah. you will
see my words were right last nighti
You. will 1>e a better physician than I
could ever hope to be."
The earl mude no reply, but followed
her across to the holm. At the door of
Lady Enid's room Margery paused.
"It will gladden her more coming from
you," she -whispered; and she hurried
away. •
Lord Court watched her disappear,
then entered the room.
"Have you found ber, Nugent?" aeked
Lady Enid, fixing her brown eyes upon
him.
"Yes," he answered, drawing a Apar
to her couch and looking at her pale
fragile form with a dull pain fit his
heart. "We have been talking together,
Fenid, and we have merle two arrange-
ments which we hope will please you.
The first is for all us to go down to

no reply; nud her brother leaned over
her and kissed her tenderly.
"My sweet Enitha he nitirmured."My

"Bet it is my wish, Enid, It will he

TO FIGHT THE TUSSOCKS.
From New England comes a plan of
fighting the tussock moth, which,
effective, is worth trying. The Plan "
quite simple, and is described as fol -

hag habit, adults if possible, This

Is then induced to partake of your
hospitality in the shape of watered
lettuce leaves. He will probably like
the diet and will feast on the leaves.
When he has gorged to the full and a,b-
solutely refuses to have another dish,
you turn your wormy guest loose. If
you feel like it you can invite him to
come again. You'll be safe in doing
this, for there's no danger of his return -
Jag. For the first day or so after the
caterpillar has leftyour doorstep he'll
be feeling fine and will strut -no crawl
-about among his fellows telling the
tale .of the watered lettuce leaf meal.
Then he will begin to feel sick. A lit-
tle later he will be quarantined by his
mates. Why? Simply because he has
caterpillar cholera, sometimes called the
wilt disease. And during the time
that 'he' has been .at large he has
spread it well about the neighborhood
-among his own kind, of course.
Within the week the insects will be
lying dead in rows on lawns and side-
walks, according to New England
stories.
Prof. Reiff, of Harvard, says that
the diet of watered lettuce gives the

Is of the opinion that it will prove effl-

STAFFORD HOUSE.
There is talk that the Duke of Suther-
land is contemplating the sale of the re-
mainder of the Crown lease of Stafford
Howse, arm of the most historical and
certainly the most palatial old house in
London. The mansion was bUlit as a re-
sidence for the Duke of York, second son
of George HI., sou was known et, first
as York House; but the Prince did not
live to inhabit it, and after his death in
1827 the Crown lease was sold to the
Marquis of Stafford, who was created
Duke of Sutherland. This Duke spent
an enormous sum in addiog'the upper
storey and the interior clecorations. It is
estimated that over $2,500,000 have been
spent, on the fabric of the house since it
was acquired by the family, which late
made it famous all over the world,

Our frightful July heats, that have
been followed Ly is breathing spell of
cooler days, now find their counterpart
on the ether sale ef the water. An in-
tense torridity is reported in France and

has sought to give his view of the situa-
tion in the following lines:
•
The workman sleeps by his neglected
toils;
No lark -song cheered the morning's
parched distress;
No wird breath cools the blue arch pita
lese;
In the vast stagnant ealm the silence
boils.
When our 'August eilenees begin to boil,
as they are more than likely to do, and
wo recur to our July' experiences of
glaring days and sleepless nights, we
shall the better appreciate the facility

POWER OF AN AIR BRAKE.
Some idea of the power of an air
brake may be gained from the follow-
ing fade:
It takes a powerful locomotive draw-
ing a train of ten passenger ears a dis-
tance of about five miles to reach a
speed of sixty miles and hour on a
straight track. The brakes will stop
the tame train from a epeed of sixty
mike an hour in 700 feet. Roughly it
may be stated that a train may be stop-
ped by the brakes in about 3 per cent,
of the distance that must be covered
to give it its speed. -Scientific Conspec-

LONDON'S GREAT FUR SALES.
An interesting sight in London is one
of the great periodical sales of raw
skins and furs held at a fur warehouse
in the city. The magnitude of the trade
and the vast amount of money involved
would surprise anyone who visited one
of these sales for the first time. At the
premises in Great Queen street one can
wander from floor to floor piled with
thousands upon thousands of skins until
one begins to wonder where all the crea-
