Lady Elizabeth and her father were standing on the terrace that dominated the fisrdcn and looked over to the park. Lad ingshousc was within. Not even an sac a summer‘s day as this did she venture much into the open air. and her embroidery had become to her b now what all hobbies become~hsr very li s. " I an Anthony Ilarford will come over ? " said Lord Kingshonss suddenly. He and his daughter had been standing quits silent for some little time. both ap- parently watching the scene. and each thinking of something else. "I suppose s-o.‘ answered Lady Eliza- bath. Her cheeks flushed just as much as if a handful of monthly roses had been held near them and the sun had thrown the re- flection of their color on her face. “ Ah, shot marriage of his Wss s blunder," said my lord. with a sigh for the one part. a shrug for the other. “ it was a pity." sue answured.

Just then they saw a horseman come along the park road, which ran along the garden wall. H. was a cross kind of road. made for the convenience of the family when their business lay to the cast and not to the south or West. It was the road which gave into the highway leading on to Thrift. “ That looks uncommonly like lfarlord 1“ said the earl. “I think so. too.” ssid Lsdy lilizsbcvb, who knew that it was be. And then the horseman. erasing, them. took of} his hat and settled the . :‘eulion of his identity. In a few minutes snore shay heard his voice in the room behind them. talking to Lady Kingshcuse and expressing his lessure at seeing her again. '1‘ ie earl stepped back out of the sun shine into the cool shadow of the horn. Lady Elizabeth turned half around in the attitude of a persou expectant but not to avoid with a welcome ready when claimed. but not thrust forward with too much in sictance. Her lips were parteil into a smile which had in it the crisp lines of pain as well as the frankness of pleasure. and her eyes were dilated till their tender gray was transformed to black. Anthony shook hands with Lord Kingshousa. and repeated the cordial phrases he had used to the countess. but he saw only Lsdy Elizabeth as she stood on the terrace. hell in profile and all in sunlight, her eyes turned to the park. while her heart and her senses were in the room. Then. the rightful amount of attention bestowed upon. the authorities, Anthony came uni on to the torreca, the hands of the two friends met. and his eyes looked on her with that long searching look which sot-med as if it would scan her very soul and armor be weary of what it saw. It was not Anthony‘s way to be hilarious or boyish. Let his mirth be ever so strong. it was deep rather than broad. and always more quiet than demonstrative. Those who knew him best would have seen most clearly how he enjoyed all the circumstances of the day. while ever maintaining his, ordinary demesnor of self-restraint and the repose which goes with dignity. [ls went out of his, wcy more than once to show the filmythc filmiths the sympathy of a neighbor and a fellow-landowner with all they had planned and done; and be congratulated them on the success of their fate. and even carried the beauty of the day to the good of their aocouutl-as if the skies had been swopt clear by their become and the south wind had been blown through their News.

As electric motor adapted to propelling vehicles upon streets is said to have been successfully invented at Indianapolis. It has long been the belief of many who have given the subject consideration that some method would soon be in use for propelling pleasure carriages alon the streets and boulevards by mechanics means in lieu of horses. and numerous efforts have been made in that direction. We published some time ago an illustration of acarriage moved by steam generated by a small supply of naphtha or similar liquid carried under the seat, but this device. which appears to be used with some success in Germany is evidently open. in some degree at least. to the objections of danger and noise.

(in grim: into the bed chamber where hi. 10 year “lll son was in bed. he saw a horrified expression on the face of the led. (in following: the direction of the son's eyes. he saw the tar. antula on his bosom crawling slowly towards his head. The boy was game. and although the pots irstion stood in large drew upon his b sncheil face. he never strained a muscle. The father stood trans- fixed and dared not stir forfear of distwh mg the deadly animal. At last the spider slowly moved. and jumped on the poor boy's face. The brave little fellow still remained calm in this awful danger. For fully five minutes the tarantula remained on his check. and then skipped on to the counterpane. As it did so the father rushed forwurd and rolled the fabric round it, and then dashed it on the floor. crush- ing the life out of the fearful creature. and afterwards threw it in a fire to make sure this time that such a deadly " viper " had ceased to live. The little hero in the bed had fainted from the great strc-u upon his curves. but upon coming to his senses was as lively as a cricket. and lauched at his late peril. When asked what his series. tions were while the animal was crawling over him. he said : “ I kept wiéhing pa a wouldn't try to touch it. for fear it mix 1!: kill him."
