Then WM a momtntary pause, bat Ibe visible ttruggle ia Arthur B face gradually g*vt way to an eipreuioa of grave deter nlaation. " I will write to M. t Tbe letter sbtll be Mot to-day; it moat be I" At lait I" said the chief engineer half aloud, aud almoii ball reproachfully. " It i* high time." Arthur turned to hit writing table. " Go ow, and take care that Ue director and MM other gentlemen remain at the pout* wkioh 1 aatigued them when 1 waa upon the work*. Tbey must not move until I eome myself. ThiB morning it would bave been useless to interfere in all that tumuli ; perhaps it ii now impassible. In bait . Lou I will be with yon ; it, meantime, anything special happens, send me word immediately." Tbe officer, jol about to withdraw, step ped onoe again to hiiobiet'i tide. " I know what Ibis decision easts you, Herr Ber- kow," he said gravel;, " and we none of as take the metier ligbtly ; bat one need not always fear the wont. Ferbape il will pass over without bloodshed." A* with a hasty parting salutation the chief engineer led the room, he waa much too burned, and had hie head too (all of other things, to remark the woman, who at hie approach, withdrew still further to tbe protection of tbe portiere. Without even a aide glance, he strode through tbe adjoin- ing room, and oloaed Ibe door behind him. The husband and wife were alone. Arthur bad only s bitter smile for she last words ot the offioer. " II is too late," aaid he now to bimaelt in a hollow voice. " Tbey will nol yield witbonl bluodehed. i most reap what my (slber towed." He threw himself down npon toe lounge, and rested bis head in bis uaad. Now, when he no longer bad to endure Ibe glances of inquisitive eyes, whoa he no longer bad to play tbe chief, upon whote decisions all tbe other* hung now the energy vanished trom bis features, to give place to that expression of deathly weariness which overpowers even the strongest man, if for weeks long all bis strength of mind and body ha* been strained and exercised to tbe utmost limit of poeeibililj . Il was a moment of deep, utter despond- ency , inch as might well approach t man who must ever, and ever in vain, o intend against the curie ot a past in which he is polity of nothing save an indifferent aliena- tion from its interests, and whose momen- tous hsirsbip, with all its oppressive bar- dens, ha* fallen upon him alone. The bitter aooutatious agtmtt his father, which often came involuntarily from bil lips, were stricken dumb at the moment be btard dreadful hints as to bit filbert And still it WM tbe father's (sail alone that, after this desperate struggle, Iht sou wss now confronted by Ibis dire necessity, tbtl with rain befcre bit eye, forsaken by his wife, deserted by all tbe world, he grasped at tbt last msaat of isving him- self, and what he still called bis, from a hatred, which, for long yeare town and tottered by another band, bad left him to nap ite whole terrible harvest. Arthur, as if ia detlbly weariness, closed bit eyes, and leaned bis bead upon tbt arm of the lounge ; he eoald endure DO more. Eugenie quietly led her corner, and stood npon the threshold. The daogtrs the had josl passed were forgotten forgotten the accusation of Ibe cffijer which had jut thrilled her with inch shuddering hor- ror ; forgotten, aUo, him whose daughter she was, and that dignity das to her ancient and noble race. Row, at she approached her husband, he thought of him alone. The thiek veil whieb bad to long lain between them thould be rent at last. All mast and should be explained. At tbe very idea of divorce he 1 1 enabled, u if with that decree her death sentence would be spoken. If she deceived bereelf, if ehe was not received at ehe wiehed and ougbl to be received after this siorinae which she bad ztorted from her pride with itormy vio- lence tbe blood rushed to the heart of this young wift, and tbii heart besl in name- lett angoiih. Upon the next minute bang all for her, "Arthur!" Midi she softly. Arthur ttarled np as it s spirit voice hat touched hit ear, and glanced around him There, upon the tbretbold where ehe bai bidden him adieu forever, stood bit wife aud, at the moment be recognized her sense and reflection vanished. He made a gesture to rnsb ta ward her ; and tbe outer) of bappineet which burnt from hit lips, the apligbting of hie eyes, betrayed all which by a self mastery of long months he bad until this hoar concealed. " Eugenie 1" Tbe yoang wouman breathed lightly, as If s mountain's weight had fallen from her breast. The glance, Ibe tons with whieb he called her name, gave her at lait the certainly so long despaired of ; and if, in tbe midtt ot hit violent excitement, he too, rettrained himself M if for protection against bis own self , bt strove again to pat on Ibe old mask, and to veil the treacher- ous glanoee it WM too late ; she bad seen too much. "Whence come you here?" he aeked at lael, with difficulty controlling bit emotion, " so sadden, so unexpected. And bow did you reach the house ? The works are all in an uproar , you could not possibly bave pasted them." Eugenie slowly approached him. " I earns only a tew minutes ago," ebe said. " I oertainly bad to win my way by force ; do not aik me bow, il It enough that 1 won it. I wauled to eome to you before danger sashed yon." Arthur made an tffort to tarn tway. " What does tbii mean, Eoganit? What would yon bave with this tone 7 Oorl most bave alarmed you with his rsports, in spite of my request, in spite ot my ezprera forbid- dsnee. 1 wish for no sacrifice from duly and magnanimity. Yon know il." " Yen, I know it," retoraed the young wits decidedly. With these wordt you bave ODBC already thrust me from yon. Too could not forgive me for having onoe done yon wrong; and, in revenge for that, yon bad almost sacrificed yoorntlf and me. Arthur, who wti tbt more revengeful tbe harder of as two 7 " M was not riveuje, said be gently. " I gave you freedom ; you had yoonelf wished Eugenie new stood otose before 'him. Tbe word which ones for co price would bave found its way through her lips uow boctrne easy, tinoe she knew beruclf beloved. She lifted ber dark, tear moist eyes imploringly np to him. " And it I now tell my husband that I will oot have this freedom without him, that I have earns back to share all with him, whatever may happen, that I have learned to love him will he then, for tbe d time, bid me go ? Bne receiver! BO answer, at least none in words ; but she was already olatped in his arms ; and in these arms, which so passion- atsly and firmly enclosed her, as if they would never let the treasure won at last go from them, under thete passionate caresses, 1 qgen in felt bow deeply bei loss mail bave wounded him, and what ber return in tuoh a moment must be to him. She saw tbe nplighting ot those great brown eyet in a lustre, inch as in tpits of all those other lightning like gleamt, the had never yet teen in them. The banished, sunken world bad mounted up from itt abyss to the clearest, sunlight , aud the young wife must indeed bave bad a sus- picion of all tbe treasuret wbiob il bad in store for her ; for, with sn expression of the moat entire confidence, she Md ber head upon btr husband's breast, as bend- ing down to her, he said soltly < My wife ! My all 1" Through the open window at a bleating and a greeting swayed tbe voices of the green wooded hills. The voices muit bave blent their whiipert with thin newly found happinesi, for tbey bad helped bring it about. Tbey bad long known tbey had helped to bring it about. For those solitary fir crowned bill tcpa bad long known these two at tbey dil not know themselves; when both stood arrayed in bitter scorn and hostility, and spoke that word of separation spoke il just there when each heart bad found tbe other its deetiny. Bat tbey are of no avail, this toorn and c intention of the children of men, if with their lovet and longingi thty are betrayed within the spell Ibe spirit of tbe moun- tain throws around his kingdom in tbe swaying mitts of the firal spring hours. And what there unites it united for all eternity I CHAPIEB XVIIL The day whieb for tbe Berkow colony bad begun to tempestuously ended far more calmly Iban oonld have been expected from the noenei of tbe morning. One unac- quainted with the eircatuttanees would perhaps have taken tbe tranqoility wbioh toward evtniug lay over tbe works for tbe deepest repose ; sud still it was only the lull of tbt ttorm wbioh retains itself for s moment, only to break loose again with renewed fury. In toe overseer's dwelling alto reixned that dull, oppressive stillness wbiob con- cealed so much calamity in its botom. The overseer sal silent in hit arm chair by tbe stove ; Martha, busied in ber household affairs, went to and fro, and svtry now and Ibtn threw a glasoe upon Ulrieb, who with folded armt paced silently up and down tbe little room. No one tpoke to him ; he spake to none. Tbs former oocliJeuoet, which from tbt ungovernable character of tbe yoang master miner bad oftsn enough led to violent scenes and explotiooi. but jail ae often had ended in reconciliation, bad long >iooe ceased. Ulrieb now ruled within tbt boose absolutely at onltide of it among bis comrades ; even bit father no longer ventured to oppose hie plant and undertakings ; bnt here, at there, fear was the impelling force ; love and eoafMenoe were at an end. Tbe silence had already lasted for some time, and might bave endured tull longer, if Lorecz bad not entered. Martha, who saw him from Ibs window, met him at the door. Tbe relation! between tbit betrothed oonpls wtre singularly cold. This had been a serious, eventful day ; and tbe young girl't gneting might have been warmer, (baps to bave bee ought tWhai't to bavt been warmer, on that fery account. Tbe young miner seemed to feel tfait , for bis face assumed an almost offended expression, and be panted in Ibe midtt of bit salutation ; bnt Martha did not remark either , and, with a batty movement, be lursed to Ulrieb. Well I ' asksd Ulrieb, panning in bit was. Loreci tbrujged bis shoulders. " It is at I havt before told you. To-morrow tour hundred will declare themselves ready to go to work, and there are just as many waveriag and hesitating onse. Ton can scarce count upon half." Ulrioh did not fly into a rtge, ai usual UCOQ mob, occasions ; tbe wild passion which bt bad tbii morning tbown wbsn he learned of a much smaller defection among bil comrades strangely contrasted with tbs almost unnatural repose of his manner, at be replied " Upon soaroa half 1 and bow long will tbey hold oat ?'' Lorens evaded a direct answer. It is entirely the yoouger miners. Tbey bave stood by yon from the first, and will still remain with you, even if there should be another conflict at the mlnet to-morrow. Ulriob, will you really push matters to tar " He will push them to such a length," said the overseer, rising, " that the men will all fall away from him, ons after the other, until at last be remains quite alone. I btve told you, Ulriob, you could not succeed with your senseless demands and your sentelees hatred, wbiob might havt been in place with the father, bnt wbiob the son oertainly has not deserved. What be offered yon was enough, thai I tell yon I, who have worked to long in the mines, and know bow to sym- pathise) with my comrades. Most miners would gladly have taken what bat been offered to ours ; but tbey bave been so much threatened, and have become to intimidated, that no one 'longer ventnree to lift a hand, because Ulrioh bat put il into their heads to demand impossibilities. Now for weeks long, tbii has been going on ; and yet all this mitery, anxiety, and need hat been in vain. There must at last come a day when wife and children, with their hanger, will rise above all else. And that day has now eome. Ton bave brought all Ibis upon us, Ulrioh yon alone ; now make an end of it." Tbe old man bad risen, and now gazed almott threateningly at bil son ; but Ulriob, with sullen composure, endured this silent reproach, wbioh at another lime might tiave called forth all this rage. " I moil not qaarrel with you, father," he returned coldly ; " that I bave long known. Yon are content if you can eat your bread in peace ; and all which lies btyond that yon call folly and wickedness. I bavt ventured all. I thought 1 oonld carry thit through ; and I should havi done it, if you u Bsrkow bad not all at on oe risen np, and showed us a brow of iron. If il now fails wel', I am ilill sure of half my comrades, SB Carl sayt , and with these I will show him what conquering as mean*, lie shall pay dearly enough for tbe vic- tory." Tbe overseer looked up to Lorms, who stood there with bowed bead, wilboul taking part in the oovertation ; then he turned to hit son. " Fin* see it the halt will ret lain true to you, Wbsn the chief again steps between yon as bt did to-day loon. This hat cost yon the other halt, Ulrioh. Do you think It hat not bad its effect the manner in which hi has horns himself from the very day yon began to threaten him ? Do you think tbt; do not all feel that be is a match tor yon and them, and that be alone matt of ntssstity control them wbtn yon onot cease to be their master ? This morning some of them for Ihe first lime went back to their work ; thty would bave done to threo wttkt ago it thsy had dared. Now thai the beginning is made, there will be no more pause." " Ton may be right father, laid Ulrica sullesly , " there will b* no more pause. 1 have built npon the took and they have proved wrttehtd sasd, wfciab mtlts away baneita my hand. Bsrkow bat Isarutd how to otjole these eowtrda with bit eloquence, with bit aoenrsed manner, to step among them, at if there wat never a tone which might be burled against bis forehead, ctvera mallet which in extrem- ities might hit Ibe high born chief ; and therefore no one' venluret to attack him. 1 know why to day he all at once carried bit bead ua high, why be rnthed into the midst of Ibe tumult with an air as if victory aud bappintss could no longer fail him ; and I alto know that both bave now come buck to him I myself tbit morciog conducted them to bit arms." The last words were lost by tbt violent cloning of Ibe door wbioh be had metn- time opened ; no one understood them. Ulrioh stepped out into tbe open air, and threw himself dowu npon tbe bench; il wat a weird, unnatural repose which had fallen over him to-day. Il teemed almcut painful in a mun so aecuttomtd to giv* loose rein to bU wild patticn. Whether the desertion of bis comrades bid to affected him, or whether il wit nometbiag lar differ- ent wbiob since tbit morning had overcome him, we cannot say ; the proud oerlaiuly of victory wbiob be bad at y el thowu at svery hour appeared uow weakened, almost destroyed. Over past tbe Ultle garden flowed tbe wide ttretm, wbioh farther on drpvt Ibe wheels ot Ibs works now Branding still. It wat a wild, treacherous etream, this brook ; il bad nolbiag of the gentle murmnrt, the tilvtr clear glanoet, of its comrades np in tbe mountains ; and still il same forth from tbe depths of tbcte mountains, just there wbire tbe mines lay. How oltsn had il ought to draw innocent plajiog children into its torrent, and at least to frighten and torment, where it could not wound and kill ; to revenge itself because man bad made il a servant to execute hie will. With a threatening murmor, the mad, restless watert bad dashed on in the last svening twilight, and still more omin oat now rang cut their voice. They hinted mockingly and maueioutly, as if down in their depths they kad learned ot Ike tarth demons those perfidious wiles with which they lure to dsatb Ibe men wbo would fain wrest from them their secrets , as if they, tac, would demand as their taorinee, young, glowing, hopeful Uvei, and bury tbem in tbe eternal night ot their rayleet caves. Il was nothing good which rang out of it this rushing and roaricg of tbe waters, and il was in no gocd hour that this weird murmur fell upon Ibs young miner's ear. Immoveable be Hand down into ibost dsptbs at if a mysterious voioe wat calling to him. He mnit bave tat there for a long time, when be beard a step a| proaobicg ; and immediately after Martha ttood before him. "What do yon with?' asked Ulrieb, without turning bis glance from the stream. " I wished to see where you were, Ulrieb." There seemed to be a restrained angnith in tbe girl's voicj. "Where I was I Your betrothed hus- band is in tbe house ; for him yon should care. Leave me where I am." "Carl has gone already," said Martha qnioHly ; " and be best knows that what I say to yon nsed not oocoern him." Uirieb turned aad looked at her. It seemed at it be would bresk loose from tbe thoughts the rushing of Ibe waters awoke in him. " Listen, Martha," be said ; " no one else would bear from yon what Carl bears. I cannot allow yon to meet me ia this man- ner. You should not bavs laid yet, i( yon did not love him." With a gesture almost of teorc, the young girl turned away. He knows lost I do nol love him ; I told him so when I gave him my promise. He underitandt all tbit. I cannot change, at least not now. Perhaps after marriage I shall learn to love him." " Pirhtpi I" said I Irish, in a tone too deep and cutting to refer merely tot these wordt. " Bo many olbtrt learn this after marriage, and wby nol yon ?" Again be gazed down into tbe dark, rtgingi watert as if be oonld nol break loose from ite tpsll. That on rushing tide, in its wild, unearthly murmurs, seemed to whis- per very evil thoughts to him. Mactfaa stood some few slept from him ; for she wat not quits frte from tbe fear wbiob tinoe thai aooidenl in tbe mines Ulrioh bad intpired in all. For weeki she had avoided every association, svsry toll- tary interview, with Ulriob ; bnt to-day tbe old love had awakened mightily within ber soul, and bad driven her almost forcibly to him. This itraugs calm did not deceive her ; she suspected what lay behind il. " You oannol gtl over Ibe desertion of your comrades 7" asked the gently. " Half of them yet remain true to you, and Carl will ttand by yon to tbe last minute." Ulriob smiled dudainfnlly. " To day it it half ; to-morrow il will be a quarter, and day after to-morrow let II rest, Martha. As for Lorens, be has from tbe first been with me with only half a heart. He has ttood by me, and not by Ibe revolt, because I was hit friend ; but there will toon be an end of friendship. Besidet, bis heart w to much engrossed iu yo a that be oannol now honorably love me." " Ulriob I" said Ibe young girl with a passionate gesture. 11 Well, thai can no longer wound yon. Yon would not content wbtn I begged yon to be my wife. If yon had, It would bave been far better." " It would nol have been better," said. Martha decidedly. " I am nol mads to endure what Carl to patiently endurei day after day ; and as it it between him and me, il would have been between ui two, only it would bave been I wbo must endure. I bad no share iu your heart ; your love wit wholly another's." There lay a bitter reproach in Ihe worde ; bn) even Ibis did nol enrage TJIrioh to-day, lie bad risen, and was looking over Ihe darkening park, at It be sought eome object between tbe trees. " You think I oonld bave fonnd this love nearer and better if I had only sought il ; and there yon are right. Bnt one doet nol seek this, Martha ; it suddenly seizet one, and does not release him while a breath remains in hit brtsst. I bave learned Ibis. I bave done you wrong, girl how great wrong, I now know for tbe first time ; bnt believe me, there it no blessing in tuob a love as mine ; it often oppresses one more heavily than tbe bitterest hatred." Il sounded strangely, Ibit half entreaty for forgiveneie in the mouth of Ulrich Uarlmann, who usually asked little whether be bad done wrong or no; and there wat something else in the words, wbioh Isy infinitely far from bil character a dumb resignation, a sorrow which no longer bad anything wild or passionate, but which, on that account, was so much tbe more touching. Martha forgot timidity and fear ; the itepped olote to hit side. " What is ths mailer with yon, Ulrioh ? You are so strange to-day, as I bave never before seen yon. What it wanting to yon ?" lie stroked tbt blonde hair from bis ttmples, sod leaned for support sgaintl tbs wooden fence. " I do not know. An undefined some- tiling has oppressed me the whole day long a something from which I eannot free myself, and whieh robs me of all my strengtb. I oerlaiuly shall Meed all tbie Btrengtb to-morrow . but, whenever I would think of it, everything grows blaek and obscure, ae if nothing lay beyond Ibis to morrow, as it with il all was at an end all 1" With a touch ot bil old obstinacy, Ulriob started up. " Idlotls thoughts I I believe tbe wa r down there bas done all Ibis to me 'a its accursed roaring. And I have just now lime to listen. Farewell." He was about to go, bnt ths girl anxloutly held him back. " Where wiU you go ? To your comrades?' " Ho { I BOtt tskt out) more walk alone." " Ulrisb, ttay, I implore you ! ' The yoang miner's short-lived weakness wai already over ; be broke impatiently away. ' Let me go I I have no time to talk with you tome other day I" He burnt op< u Ibe gsrdsn gate, and shortly after v'.mued in tat twilight ot the way leading ihe park. Mariba stood there with folded bandt, and gutd alter him. Mortification and bitter torrow ttrnggltd in ber features, bnt grief Hill htld the mattery. " There is no blessing in tuch love I" the wordi yet again eoboed in heTbeart ; the alto fill that there was DO bleating in ben. Meantime Eugenie Btrkow fonnd her- self alone in ber husband's et bluet. Tbere remained to tbii husband and wife but little lime to give themselves up to love and to love's btppiuess. Twioe already bad Arthur ben forosd to leave- bwr side; to-day noon, when be bad thrown bimtelf into the midst of the revull, and for tbe moment bad overpowered il ; and now again, when a conference with his cffioers ssunmoued him away. Bat in jpitc ot ber uneasiness about bim, in tpite of her anxiety in regard to the present ttill so dark sod threatening, the >oung wife's face glowed with tbe reflection of a deep, inward happiness, wbiob, won after so long a con- flict, no longer trembled before any out- ward ttorm. Hue wat with ber butband, at bis sids, in hit protection ; and Arthur teemed only too well to maderstand how to make bis wife forget all else bnt him. A door was opened, and tttpt were beard in the adjoining room. Eugenie rose bastily to greet the new ocmer, whom tbe naturally euppoted to be her husband ; but her flril attonistinliot at tight ot the ttrange form yielded *JPfcrTor. as in the man wbo enterd abe recognized Ulrieb Harlmann. He also paused in aetonisbmenl as be became aware of ber pretence. " Is il yon, my lady ? I teek Herr Ber- kow." " He is nol Lire ; I was just now expect- ing him," replied Kugenie quickly, bnt with trembllcg voiss. She knew what a dangerous nan this wss for Arthur what role be played here npon tbe worst ; still Hhe bad not hesitated to oocfide bertelf to bis protection, when this morning co other choice bad remained to her ; bnt between this morning and evening lay tboee hours in which she bad beard the accusations the ebief engineer mads against him. It waa only a sutpieion ; bat even the suspicion ot a treacherous, underhanded murder of a defenceless man 1s something terrible. Tbeviry thought of I bad filled tbii yoccg woman with horror. 8ae bad confided herself to Ibe open, reckless enemy ot ber husband ; but she drew back shuddering from Ibe band wbieb pirhspa was red with the blood of Arthur's father. Ulriob remarked this movement only too well. He remained Handing npon Ihe tbretbold ; bat tbtre was an annrstakblo irony in fcil voice at be siil " I have perhaps frightened you with my entrance ? It was not my faull that I did not bave mytelf announced. Your ladyebip it badly served. I f onod none of your liokeyx either on tbe stairs or on tbe inrridort. might perhtps bave tbruel tbem atide, bad tbey refuted me entrance ; but their out- cry at thin woeU bave Oeeu a tori of announcement." Eugenie knew that be could btva entered unhindered. Fraisand Anton, at Arthur's express command, were ia tbe ante-room of ber own apartments. Now, when all minds were excited, when all tbe bends of order were loosened, he did nol know but the lawlestnest of tc me might letd to an allack, or at least an inlnuion into tbe buntc Daretl and aLxiety bad driven tbe yonug wife over M ber busband't ouambsr, wLiou lay in the other wiog, aud from whose windows the could see bim coming. II n. In trntb, tbe entrance wan unguarded ; and the was entirely alone in these rooms "What do yon with here, liaitmauu 7 ' she asked, inmmobing all btr oonrtge. " I did not suppose, that after all thai hat hap- pened, yu would eeek to enter our bou'e, and even j|rade younelf into tbe apart men! of yonr chief. Yon mutt know that he no longer can receive you." " It U for that very reason I leek bim to speak a few words with him, I expected to find bim alone. II was nol yon I sought, yonr lady ttaip." At tbe but wordi be had itepped nearer. Eugenia involuntarily drew back to tbe farthest par I of the room. He laughed bit- terly. "Can a few bonrt have made tueb a Orange ? Xbit morning you demanded my protection, and leaned upon my arm at I conducted yoa through tbe tumult ; now yon flee from me as if near me you were not sure ot >cur life. Herr Berkow bas will employed the time to repreteot me to yon as a robber and a murderer has be nol ? " Tbe young woman's dslioate brows con- tracted, at, subduing ber fear, she tteriily replied, " Lesve me I My hatband is nol here I Yon see Ibis ; and, svsn It he were to come now, I should hardly like to leave yon alone with bim."

The history of those everyday titles of Mr. and Mrs, wbiob art now tbe common property of every one, it not without inter- est, though in some ot its steps it is a little obscure. In tbe esrlier times of our history the ordinary man was limply William pr John ; that it to lay, he bad merely a Christian namt, without any kind of " handle" before it or surname after it. Boms means of distinguishing one John or one William from another J.'bn or another William became neoeesary. Nicknames, deiived from a man't trade or from his dwelling-plaoe, or from tome personal peculiarity, were tacked on to tbe Christian namtt, and plain John became plain John Booitb. At yet there were no " Milters" in the land. Some John Bmilb accumu- lated more wealth than Ihe balk of hit fellowi beosaio perhtpt a landtd proprie- tor, or an employer of hired labor. Then be began to be called in the Norman Frenob of the day, the " Maittre" of Ibit place, or of that, of these workmen or of tboee. In time tbe " Maislre" or " Maitter," ss it toon became, gol tacked on before bii name and be became Maister Smith and his wife became Maistrest Smith. Bnl gradually tbe tente of possession wai lost sight of, and tht title wat oonftrred npon any man wbo bsd attained social distinction of any kind, whether bymer3pasisssion ot wealth, or by holding some position of more or leu oonsideration and importance. Il ii only within comparatively modern limes that tbe terms came to be considered an almost indispensable adjunct to every one's name when meylioned in ordinary conversation or writing. Maitlrsis Smith soon became Mislrtst Smith. Exaetly how and when Ibe terms got corrupted cannot be said. alaster Smith, however, remained Maatsr Bmith long after his wife beoame Mialreta Bmitb.-A'j. t OI.IIMI i uo.> tMHiBrtv < inf.
