The Earl knew that it Laahton-its low situation, its woods I Vie-that had killed his delicate young ^thirty years before, and while he dwelt â-  j! nniv a month or so every year himself, r lid hi-'h wages to retain his servants, JL'dimi'edVimly to see how eager they were rrisk health and life for £;old. An un- iTJesome placeit was most certainly the Uerous blazing fires, the hot- water pipes i th every floor, -could not overcome the ISpnessof the air the rooms were hot lid moist by day, chill and dank by night. lit was a place that any one who valued hu- man life before soft sylvan scenery, and com- i^ind health before a curious specimen of l^teenth century architecture, would have razad to the ground and rebuilt on some of tte wooded slopes about it. So perhaps thought a lady, slight and tall, jnd of noble and stately carriage, who had ust stepped through a window that opened (D to ahiarrow terrace of red and stone which kept the water from the actual wall of the Vubey, and who was slowly sauntering to mi fro, an expression of weariness and silent liiscont'ent so stamped upon her pale features that one could see at once that it was their habitual cast when the smooth mask worn ior others was removed. She walked leisurely up and down the terrace in the moonlight, the violet lire of amethysts glimmering amonp the abundant plaits of her flaxen hair, her pliant graceful igare shown to advantage in a perfectly- nude silk dress of so pale a blue as to be almust white, a scarf of costly and delicate lace wrapped about her shoulders, hor lons[ rounded arms clasped with bracelets of ame- thysta and gold. Presently she paused in her walk, and leaning her white arm on the balustrade of the terrace, turned her proud unhappy eyes on the dark water. Hyacinth Verschoyle was not a woman to be envied, even by the plainest and most impecunious of the well- bred, well-conducted, marriageable maidens lomging about the large, low, lamplit draw- ing-room within, waiting for the welcome appearance of the gentlemen after dinner. The light pouring from the open window, and shining on the black water, the low mur- mur of voices, the sound of a swaying waltz mne which some one was playing softly and- dreamily upon the piano, seemed to irritate Hyacinth. She looked impatiently behind' her, and then walked rapidly down' the ter- race to where a broad flight of steps led to a narrow path lapped, by the water. She descended these and sat upon the' lowest one, letting the edge of her costly iiik robe trail over the wet path, jnst aa Bhe- would have done with a chea.p and common dress in the old make-shift, out at-elbow time, when she soiled and tore her few gowns and was far shabbier than she need tave been. Some memory of the kind seem- ed to louch her heart now for she smiled kali regretfully as she saw how the delicate !ilk was rained. Then, but wearily and half scornfully, she fell to admiring the faint re- flection of her lace-draped shoulders and p»le face below her. "Yes," her thoughts ran, ELddressing the nickering ghost of herself looking up at her through the dark water, "you are a rich, Wsome, healthy woman, Hyacinthâ€" you can tear or soil a sixty-guinea gown with ira- pimtj-â€" youcan give lavishly where money ia ^^J neededâ€" you can see your father and mother enjcying comfort in a good hcuse, jnthproper surroundingsâ€" you can sencfyftnr' when to college and start them well in the prwessions they has-e chosen â€" you can bring your beautiful sister out with all the pres- ige that wealth and posi^on can give â€" "We than you dreamed of in the old days of ^Md poverty has fallen to your lot • yet J»« yon found happiness?

Do come even to escape from thouffhts ^that I cannot bet see are aad." "I will go across the bridge if you wish," she answered, taking a fold of her dress in her hand, and walking along the narrow path " but I think my face belies meâ€" 1 have really no cause to be sad." •' L«88 cause than most women I shonld say, " he remarked followmg hor, "for you are rich and â€" pardon me â€" so fair that you must know that you are sought for yourself and not for your riches.

She neither shrank from nor responded in the least to these advances. She quietly ignored them, an i slowly walking on answer- ed him in her usual half -weary, half -scorn- ful way. "Well, if you will keep to the subject, yon must not blame me for saying something that I did not think I should have to say to you, Captain Houghton." He gzaed at her so lose in conjectures as to what she was "up to now" that he could not speak. "Do you know the name I am called by among yonr friends?" she asked. " Yes, you do â€" I see it in your face 1" â€" turning her bright cold eyes full upon him. "Oh â€" er â€" ^Miss Verschoyle " murmured the Captain feeling confused, and again wondering what she was " up to." " You need not be in the least alarmed Ij^ow it and prize itâ€" it is a very nice name, I think, and shows that I am not only a rich woman, but a very sensible one." He knew by something in her manner and the tone of her yoice that she wbs about to say something peculiarly insolvent biU: relying on his studies of feminine character and his utter contempt for all women^ he thought that for onoe bhe wonld find herself matched, and said quietlyâ€" " The Refuser." "Exactly. Is it not a charming nickname But, laelieve me, having received tt, I do not want any more justifications for the be- stowal! of it,â€" at least while laai at the Abbey.

They had no^ come to the rustic bridge that crosses the stream flowing out of the lake on the lower side. She rested her arm upon the wooden rail and looked silently down into the hurrying waters. She wonld not recognize his claim upon her thoughts, no matter how humbly it might be urged. He paused a moment, lookug at her, ex- pecting her to speak then, with a 8igh,con- tinued â€" "I dare say yon think me very pertina- cious, Miss Verschoyle but such strange things happen â€" ^not now and then, but every day â€" that I don't, I cannot quite despair. For example, look what has happened to- night?" "What has happened " she askfed, with one of her rare smiles, as if to show him that, if he accepted the warning and put love- making out of his head, she was quite ready for any reasonable amount of conversation. Hanghton noticed the change in her man- ner, but answered smoothly â€" "Well, you know dinner was delayed half, an hour for that Irish fellow. Lord Arenbeg, and a friend whom he was to bring wiUi him â€" friend unknown. " "Yes and they did not arrive. I thought the Earl seemed a little upset about it" "Naturally. But, tfter the ladies had left the dinintr-room, they did turn up and I was nevermore astonished in all my life." He paused to give due effects to his words. "At their being late, or coming at all?" she murmured, so f aintly interested tha ^^ her voice died away, and she turned her head towards the wood where a nightingale was singing. "It is so seldom one hears the nightingale in August. What were you go- ing to tell me " she said. "About Lord Arenbeg's friend. He was received as a lion by every one, his offence in keeping dinner waiting quite overlooked, for he had, it seemed, fought through two campaigns as a h«rse-soldier^-a common trooper. Miss Verschoyle!" The languid attitude in which she leaned against the rail of the bridge had not changed, the. very carriage of her head and turn of her neck were the same but a sharp cry bro^e from her lipsâ€" ^her face became als pale as death.

A Lanndiy Lesaon- This rule is for washing with the home- made soft soap. Put the clothes to soak over auiht in suds into which has been put a table^oonfulof kerosene. This is sufficient for a large wash. In the morning wring the clotnes out of this water. Rub soap on che dirtiest spots and put in the boiler with cold water enough to cover the clothes. Do not boil over fifteen minutes. While boil- ing tak^ thjpm out into warm water. Very little r ubb in g is neOessary and that only on the dirtiest places. Suds, rinse and dry. If blueing is nsed put into the rinsing water. At this time of year clothes whiten nioely by spreading on the grass. If it is neces- sary to fill the boiler again with clothes take out part of the water and fill up with cold wa^r. Do not put the clothes into too warm water to soak or to boil. Clothes can be ironed to look nicely with much less labor if not s{ainkled too wet. Stabch. â€" Dissolve one dessertspoonful of starch in cqld water, and pour into one pint of boiling water. When the starch is turned clear add a small teaspoonful of kerosene and a little blueing. This will starch one shirt, one pair of cuffs and two collars. After dipping the clothes, dry and dip again in starch dissolved in cold water. Let them lie ten or fifteen minutes before ironing. CloiSies are stiffer when starched in both kinds than when starch of either kind is used alone. The kerosene keeps the starch f roto sticking to the iron and also gives a gloss to the clones.
