Th• is was a humiliating acknowledgment ; but it was Aspe.tria'a first upward step, for with it came an invincible determination to make herself worthy of her husband's love and companiOnship. The hope and obieet gave a neiv color lo her life. As she went about her simple duties, as ehe sat alone in her room, as she Battened to her brothers talking, it occupied, strengthened and in- spired 'her. Dark as the present was, i; held the hope of a future which made he blush and tingle to its far-off joy. To lear everything, to go evetywhere, to become brilliant woman, a woman of the - world, t make her husband edmire and adore her, those were the dresses that brightened th long, sombre winter, and turned the lo dim rooms into a palace of enehattment. She was aware of the difficulties in he way.' She thought first of asking Will permit her to go to school in London. Bu she knew he would never consent. She had no friends to whew* she could confide her innocent planets sht had as yet hp money in her controL But in less than tero yeseni she would be of age. Her fortune would thee be at her disposal and the law would permit her to order her own life. In the meintime she could teed and study at home ; when the spring came she would see the vicar, and he would lend her books from his library. There waa an eneyclopaedia in the house ; she got together its scattered volumes, and began to make herself familiar with its Melange of information. In such efforts her heart was purified from all bitterness,wonnded vanity and im- patience. Life was neither lonely nor mon- otonous, she had u noble object to work for.• So the winter passed and the spring came again. All over the fells the ewes and their lambs made constant work for tbe shepherds; and Aspatria greatly pleased Will by going out frequently to pick up the perishing, weakly lambs and succor them. One day in April she took a bottle of warm milk and a bit of sponge and went up Calder Fell. On the first reach of the fell she found a dying lamb and carried it down to the shelter of some whin bushes. Then she fed it with the warm milk, and the little creature went to sleep In her The grass was green and fresh, ,the sun warm ; the whins sheltered her from the wind and a little, thrush in them busy building her nest, was making sweet' music out of air as sweet. All was so glad and quiet ; !she, too, was happy in her own thoughts. A Wagon passed, and then a fax cart, and afterwards two old men going ditching. She hardly lifted her head ; everyone knew Aspatria Anneys. When the shadows told her that it was near noon, she rose to go home holding the lamb in her arms. At thaftmoment a carriage came slowly from behind the hedge. She saw the fine horses with their glittering harness aed knew it was a strange vehicle in Amber - side so she sat down until it should pass. The'lamb was in her left arm. She threw back her head and gazed fixedly into the whin bush where the thrush had its neat. Whoever it was, she did not wish to be recognized. Lady Redward,'Sarah Sandys and Ulfar Fenwick were in the carriage. At the moment -she atood with the lamb in her arms, Ulfar had known his wife. Lady Redware saw her almost as quickly and in some occult way she fransferred by a glance the kuowledge to Sarah. The carriage was going very slowly; the beauty of the thrown back head,. the simplicity of her dress, the pastoral charm of 'her position, all were dis- tinct. Ulfar looked at her with a fire of position in his eyes, Lady Reoware with an- " Is that really Little Bo Peep ? The joke fell flat. Ulfar did not immediate- ly answer it ; and Sarah was pismed. " I shall go to Italy again,' she said. " Englishmen may be admirable on masse but individually they are stupid or cross." !, In Italy there are the Capuchins " an- swered Ulfar. He remembered that 'Sarah had. expressed herself strongly about the order. " I have just passed a week at Oxford among the Reverends ; all things consider- ed,I prefer the Capuchins. When you have dined with a lord bishop, you want to be- come a socialist." Your Oxford friends are very nice peo- ple, Sarah." " Excellent people, Elizabeth, -quite superior people, and they are all sure not onlv of going to heaven, but also of joining theibest society the place affords." , "Best society !" said Ulfar pettishly. tt I am going to America. There,- I hope, I shall hear nothing about it." " America is so truly admirable. Why was it put'in such an out of the way place ? You have to sail three thousand miles to get to it," pouted Sarah. " All things worth having are put out of the way," replied Ulfar. " Yes," sighed Sarah. a What an ad - mixable story is that of the serpent and the " Come, Ulfar Bald Lady Redware, "do try to be agreeable. You used to be. ao de- lightful ! Was he not, Sarah ?" " Was he ! I have forgotten, Elizabeth. Since that timers -great deal , of water has run into the sew. If you want an ili-natured opinion about youreelf, by all means go to a woman for it.' And Ulfar enunciated this dictum with a -very scornful shrug of his shoulders.; " Never mind him, dear !" said Sarah. " I do not. And I have noticed that the men who give bad characters to men have usually worse ones themselves. I think Ulfar is quite ready for American society and its liberal ideat." And Sarah drew her shawl into her throat, and looked defiantly at Ulfar. " The Americane are all socialite. I have read that, Ulfar. You know what these liberal ideas come to,—always social- ism." " Do not bi3 foolish, Elizabeth. Social- ism never comes from liberality of thought, it is always a bequest of tyranny." nice and good agaie ? I do not know, Elizabeth." that when things are at their worst they must mend. Ulfar, lately, is always at his worst and he never mends." There was really some excuse for Ulfar ; he was suffering keenly and neither of the two women cared to recognize the fact. He had just returned from Italy with his father's remains and after their burial he hid permitted Elizabfith to carry him off with, her to Redware. In reality the neighborhood of .Aepatria drew him like a magnet. He had been haunted by her last, restful, amazed, miserable look. He understood from it that Will had never told her of his intention to bid her farewell, as she was his wife and he was not devoid of imagination. His mind had constantly pictured scenes of himiliation which he had condemned the woman he had once so tenderly loved toindure. And that palming glimpse of her under the whin -bushes bad revived something of Tie face t is on simile of manna "Teats, idle tears, / know not what they mean," wrote the poet But teats al- ways mean somethingt There are tears of mel- ancholy, tears of joy., and of despair, and those saddest most pathetic tears of the nervous Over- wrought wo- man who has been bearing under a daily up as bravely as she may „ burden of weakness and dragging, torturing pain. No wonder women weep. The wonder is that they are not oftener in tears for all they have to bear and suffer ; and the saddest thing about it is how little their sufferings are understood. Even the dodtor, nine times in ten says : -"Oh, a little nervous- ness, that's all ' or " neuralgia," or " insom- nia," or "dypepsia." If he suspects. the real cause he insists upon examinations and local treatment,—about the very worst thing possible to a nervous, overwrought woman. There is no need of these repugnant methods. Any woman may insure health and strength in a womanly way by the use of Dr. Pierce's Fa.vorite Prescription. It cures the weaknesses and diseases of the feminine organism absolutely and com- pletely. It was devised for this speCial purpose by• one of the most eminent and experienced eihricians in this country; an expert specialist in women's diseases. For nearly 39 years Dr. Pierce has been chief consulting physician of the Invalids' Hotel and urg-ical Institute, Buffalo, N. If. Any woman may consult Iiim by letter, free of charge. Her letter will be answered not by a mere nurse or uneducated, unscientific person: but by the most competent medical authority anywhere obtainable. All women should read Dr. Pierce's thou- sand -page illustrated book, " The People's Common Sense Medicat,Adviser." It con- tains more clear and comprehensive advice on medical subjects than any other book ever published.

He answered his sister's and Sarah's remarks pettishly, because he wanted te be left alone with the new hope that had come to him. :Why not take As - had been compelled, by his° sense of justice ,and honor, to make het LadY Fenwick ; why should he deny himself her company, merely to keep a passionate, impulsive To the heart the past is eternal, and love survives the peng of separation. He thought of Aspatria for the next twenty- four hours. To see her to speak to her 1 to hear her voice to clasp her to his heart Why should he deny himaelf these delights? What pleasure could pride and temper give him in exehange ? Fenwich had always loved to overcome an . obstacle, and such poople cannot do without obstacles ; they are a necessary ailment. To see and to speak with Aspatria was the one thing in life worthy of his attention. ' It was not an easy thing to accomplish., Every day for nearly a week he rode furi: ously to Calder Wood, tied his horse there, and then hung about the brow of Calder Cliff, -for it oommanded Seat-Ambar, which lay below it ae the street lies below a high tower. With his glass he could see Will and Brune passing from the house to the barns or the flelds,and once he saw Aspatria go to meet her brother Will ; he saw her lift her face tosWill's face, he saw Will put her arm through his arm and so go with her to the house. How he hated Will Anneys ! What a triumph it would be to carry off his sister unknown to him and without his . One morning he determined if he found no opportunity to see Aspatria that day alone he would risk all and gaholdly to the house. Why should he not do so ? He had scarcely made the decision when he saw Will and Brune drive away together. He remembered it, was Dalton rnarket day and he knew that they hda gone there. 41 - most immediately Aspatrm left the house also. Then he was jealous. Where was she going as soon as her; brothers left her ? book and carry him a c eam cheese of her She was going to the Icat's to return a own making. He knew then- how to meet her. Shp would pass through a,medow on her- way home, and this •medow was skirted by a young plantation. Ha(lf-way down there was a broad stile between the two. He hur- ried his steps and arrived' there just as As- patria entered the medow. There was it high frolicking wind blowing right in her face. It had blown her braids loose, and her tippet and dress b ckward ; her slim form was sharply derma by it, and it com- pelled her to hold up th her hands in or- der to keep harlot on er head. - She came on so, tree ing lightly, almost dancing with the merry gusts to and fro. Once Ulfar heard a little cry that was half laughtsr, as the wind made her pirouette and then stand still to catch her breath. Ulfar though the picture bewitching. He -waited until she was within a yard or two of the stile, ere he crossed. She was hold- ing her hat down ; she did not .see him until he could have pat his hand upcm her. Then she let her hands fall and her hat blew backward, and ahe stood quite still end quite speechless,her color coming andgoing, all a woman's softest witchery beaming in her eyes. to take you with me. I am going to Amer- ica." He spoke a little sadly, as if he had some reason for feeling grieved. She shook her head positively, but she did not or could not speak. " Aapatria, have you no kiss, no word of welcome, no love to give me ?" And he put out his hand, as if to draw her to his She stepped quickly backward : "No, no, no ! Do not touch me, Ulfar. Go away. " But you must go with me. You are my wife, Aspatria." And he said the last words. very like a eomniand. " I say you are. I married you in As- patria church." " You also left me there, left me to such shatne and sorrow.as no man gives to the woman he loves." " Perhaps I did aot cruelly in two or three ways, Aspatria ; but people who love forgive two or three offenees. Let us be lovers as we used to be." ' " No, I will not be levers as we used to be. People who love do not commit two or three such offences as yeu committed against " I will atone for thein. I mill indeed ! gio to Anierica without you. Row soon can' you be ready In a week ?"

" Will did right. He knew hie sister would not have your home and money with- out your love." lithe spoke calmly, with a dignity, that became well her youth and beauty, Ulla thought her exceedingly lovely. He at- tempted to woo her again with the tender glances' and soft tones and curetting' touch of their early acquaintance. Aspatria sor- rowfully withdrew herself ; she held only repelling palms toward her bending face. She was not coy, he could have overcome coyness ; she was cold,and. calm, and watch- ful of him tted of herself.. Her face and throat paled and blushed, and blushed and paled ; her eyes were dilated with feeling ; her pretty bowshaped mouth trembled ; she radiated w personality sweet, strong, womanly—a piquant, woodland, pastoral delicacy, ,all her own. But after many useless efforts to influente her, he began to despair. He perceived that she still loved him, perhaps better than she had ever done, but that her determin- ation to consider [their marriage void had its source in a oneness of mind having no second thoughts and no mind behind it. The only hope die gave was in another marriage ceremony which in its -splendour and, peb- licity should atone in some measure for elle first. He •could not contemplate such a confession of his own fault. He could not give Will and Brune .Anneys such a triiimph. If Aspatria loved him how could she esk such a humiliating atonement? Aspatria saw'the Shadow of these reflections on his face. Though he said nothing, "she under- stood it was this struggle that gave the momentry indecision to his pleading. For herself she did not desire a preeent reconciliation. She had nursed too long the idea ed the Aspatria that was to be, the wise,. clever, brilliant woman who was to win over again her husband. She did not like to relinguish this hope for a present gratification a gratification so . much lower in it's aim that she now -under- stood that it could never • long satisfy a nature se complex and SO changeable as Uffar's. She therefore refus- ed him his preseht hope, believing that. fate had a far better meeting in store for them. While these thoughts flashed through her mind, she kept her eyes epon_the horizon. In that wide open fixed gaze her loving, troubled soul revealed itself. Ulfare was wondering whether it was worth while to begin his argument all over again, when' she said softly : " We must now say farewell. I see the vioar's maid coming. In a few hours the fell -aide will know of our meeting. I must tell Will, myself. I entreat you to leave the dales as soon as possible." " I will not leave them without you," " Go to -night. I shall not change what I have said. There is nothing to be done but to part. We are no longee alone. " I care not who is present. Yoe are my wife." And he clasped her in his arms and kiased her. Perhaps she was not sorry. Perhaps her own glance of love and longing had com- manded the enibrace ; for when she releaeed herself she was weeping and Ulfar's tears were on her cheeks. But she called the vicar's maid imperatively and so put an end to the interview. " That was my husband, Lottie," she said. It was the only explanation offered. _ Aspatria knew it was useless to exp.ect any reticence on the subject. In that isolated valley such a piece of news could not be kept ; the very birds would talk about it in their nests. She Must herself tell Will, and although she had done nothing wrong, she was afraid totell him. When she reached home she was glad. to hear that' Will had been sent for to Squire Frostham's. " It was something about a fox," said Brune. " They wanted me too, but Alice Frostham is a girl I cannon abide. I would not go near her." " Brune, will you take a long ride for my sake ?" Then you did a badthing. I would not have believed it of you. Good Lord !there is as Much two-facedness in A woman as• there is 'meat in an egg." " Brune, you are thinking wrong. I did not know he was in the country till he stood before me ; and he did not move me a haire-breadth any way. But Lath) from the vioerage saw us together ; and she was goingto Dalton. You know what she will say ; and by and by the Frosthams will hear ; and then they will think it to be only kind ' to talk to Will about Me :and my affairs and the end of it all will be some foolish deed or other. If you love me, Brune, go to, Redware to -night and see Ledy *Redware and tell her there is danger for her brother it he stays around here.' " I can say that truly. There is danger for the scoundrel, a good deal of it." " Brune, it would be such e sorrow to me if every one were talking of me again. Do what r ask you, Brune. You promiked to stand by me through thick and thin." . WOO as i have eaten my dinner.

My word ! who would- have thought of him coming back ? Life is full of surprises." " But only think, if there was never any- thing acoidenial happened ! Surprises are just what makes' life worth having,—eh, Brune ?" " Maybe so and maybe not. What Will comes home tell him everything at once. I can inanage'Lady. Redware, I'll be bound." " With the promise he went &way to per- form it and Aspatria carried her trembling heart into solitude. But the lonely place was full of Ulfar. A thousand hopes were budding in her heart,growing slowly,strong- ly, sweely, in that earth which she had made for them out of her love, her desires, her hopes and her faithrul aspirations.

POISONED BLOOD. Dreadfill Death -Draught Comes from Diseased Kidneys. When Uric,Aoid Flows in the Veins, Life looks out of Darkened Windows, ex- peoting soon the Close of Day.

A curious incident happened one Sun* to 'a lady in a neighboring village. The husband of a Mrs. Lewis is the super- intendent of the Sunday school in the little town, and it has been her habit to call at the !school at about the hour of closing to walk home with him. On the day mention- ed, as she was approaching the church, one of the pupits said to her, "Hurry uP, or you will be too late," but did _not mention what she might be too late for. At the door she met another little ,girl, who said : "Oh, hurry, Mrs. Lewis ! You are Net hatime." - As she entered the room a minister, in his clerical robes, stepped in front of the prayer desk and said : "Let the candidates for matrimony come To the astonishment ,,of Mrs: Lewis, her husband and one of the young lady teaehers retponded to the -invitation, and hete is a point where the novelist could put in some dramatic werke Mrs. Lewis might have screametli fainted or have done anything startling,• but, horrified as she was for the moment, her judgment told her that there mnet be some reasonable excuse for the apparently inexcusable situation, and there was. . More deliberately, and with consideabie embarrassment, a couple no longer young came forward to be married. They had come from a distance without any friends attending them. and' had been directed to the Sunday school to find a minister. The other couple had been requested to act as witnesses.
