Rose then saw before her a fine -look -
lug man, with a tall and graceful figure,
a stately head, well covered with glossy,
light yellow hair, that waved around a
forehead broad, white and open as that
of boyhlod; delicately -arched eyebrows,
clear, gentle, blue eyes, straight nose,
full, finely -curved lips, all blended into
a charming expression of kindliness end
gay good -humor.
As the young duchess looked up at this
face smiling swaetly down upon hers, her
own countenance went through many
rapid. changes; first a vague surprise,
then a fearful suspicion, lastly a horri-
fied recognition, as, with that cry of or-
guish we all utter in our extremity:
"Oh, my God!"
She threw her hands up t oher face,
reeled back and sank upon the sofa. The
visitor deliberately crossed the room,
folded his arms across his broad chest,
and standing before her, said:
"My sudden appearance has startled

scarcely expected to see me here"
There are shocks so great that they
kill the weak, and stun the strong into
a state resembling calmness. This was
steel' a one to the young duchess. It
did not crush—it calmed her. Though
pale as death, she quietly motioned her
straage visitor to a sent, and when he
.hichtedken it, said:
"In the name of heaven, have you re-
turned"from the grave to ruin me?"
"Ixb,.snine"awn; I have returned only

and holding out his arms, as if to em-
brace, her.

stern voice, that sounded strangely and
fearfully from those bloodless lips, and

Sad Waste of Eyesight.
(Boston Herald.)
The secretary of•the New York Asso-
ciation for the Blind reports that there
are 05,000 blind people in the United
States, and then makes the astonishing
statement that "two-fifths of the blind
in our country need not have been
blind." This is worth verifying. If that
can be done an educational campaign
should be begun the country over to put
an end to such needless waste and suf-
fering. Of course, some oases of blindness
are due to accident and to other causes
that could not be avoided. But every
conceivable preventive which the educa-
tion of parents as well as of children
can provide should be the subject of
legislative action.

called you -a liar." '
"Shouldn't, hey?"
"No, you should have demanded the proof,

had the proof."

"You have alienated my wife's affec-
tions," said the visitor, and there was
a glint in his eye.
"And," said the man addressed, with
a covert sneer, "you propose to seek fin-
ancial salve?"
"Salve nothing," replied the visitor. "I
came merely to offer sympathy and to
remade that if my Roane is broken up
the bull pap is my personal property,
and don't you forget it."

sexually, I think the plated or silver

What Bread is Made Of,
Tho Schoolmistress had, been attempt-
ing in vain by means of a lengthy lecture
to make her scholars grasp the names of
the various ingredients ,that go toward
the making of a loaf of bread.
At length she sent one of the children
to the village baker to fetch oloaf, and
on its arrival she held it up and began
once more to describe its manufacture.
Then, after half an hour's earnest talk,
rho ventured to question them on the
subject.
"t barley," she said to the boy nearest
her, "tell me what bread is made of."
The boy instantly -obliged.
"Please, amiss," he answered eagerly,
"holes and crumbs•!"

The "Unwritten Law."
(Chicago Clefoniele.) -
R They are a little more careful about
enforcing the "unwritten law" in (veer•
gin than in Virginia. Judge Loving in
Virginia killed at mare for an alleged
wrong to his daughter and then discover'
ed that no wrong laud been done his
daughter. revamp that was the moot
that L. D. Strong, -of Macon, Gat,, who
accused a man rammed Smith of wronging
his sister, considerately waited until the
Grand. Jury had found a true bill against
Snaith, and then emptied five bonnie of
a revolver into him. As a reward for
his relf-eonrt:ral the coroner's jury took
just five minutes to dieehtarge him. Even
if these is to bit an "unwriten hew" there
Is no use in enforcing it too rashly.
