"Yes, my dear Mrs. Elwes, but the price has gone up to seven thousand five hundred," smiled Col. Lawrence. Mrs. Elwes stood before him dumb-founded. "You--you told me five thousand," she stammered. "Three years ago," smiled the colonel. "~--1I've paid you that hundred a month all the time," she faltered des- Perately. "Mere tribute," smiled the colonel, leaning back in his chair. "I'll take the five thousand on aecount and debit you with the balance." Mrs. Elwes stood there, a pitiful figure that might have melted a heart of stone, but the colonel's heart was made of alabaster, for/he was the editor of a notorious society paper which made a specialty of scandal. And there had been something in Mrs. Elwes' past life which the colonel had found out three years before, His threat of divulging it to her husband had kept her in constant ter- ror. Jim and she adored each other. If ever he found out he would leave her, cast her off; his anger would be terrible. She could J10t bear the thought of it. She had saved every benny she could scrape together to got that fatal letter that was Proof. And now the colonel had calmly raised his price 50 per cent. She looked at him in despair, The colonel looked back at her. He didn't want to drive her too far; he had his OWN reasons, also an acute paycholog- ical sense 'which told him just how far he could ge. "I'll make it sixty-five hundred," he said, st™ smiling. "And that hundred a month until the debt is paid. Otherwise--that is to say, It I don't receive the whole amount within a month--* "A month!" she gasped. "A month," he smiled. "Come, my dear Madam, it is an easy thing to wheedle, another fifteen hundred out of that complacent husband of yolirs." She bit her lip. That was the hardest thing of all to bear, the thought of having to deceive Jim, who trusted her so implicitly. "I'l do my best," she answered desperately. "Your wery best," smiled the colonel. "A nice little, Juicy article that story would make, wouldn't it! And that letter would look so well in print in our columns." 'Oh, you are a brute!" sobbed Mrs. Elwes. "80 many have called me," answer- ed the colonel, bowing her out. . She went out in a nightmare. She must go to Jim, lie to him again, let him think her extravagant, so long as she could wheedle another fifteen hundred out of him. She was.désper- ately in debt, all her bills were un- Paid, and the colonel had her five thousand, in bills, upon his desk. She started violently. She had nearly collided with a tall man who was coming along the passage. And she looked at him in terror. It was her husband |" "Pussy! You here?" he exclaimed.

Declined An Office. Some of the early customs in mune feipal administration in Ontario were odd enough. A Welland correspon- dent has discovered record of puntish- ment of a man for not accepting an office, and in another instance, an election being overlooked, the old Council continued in office. The first is recorded in the following minutes from the records of the township of Willoughpy in 1801: "Gideon Dudley, being duly elected to the office of assessor for the town- ships of Willoughby and 'Crowland, declined the said office, came before . me this 14th day of March, being summoned to appear to know the reason of his not accepting sald of- fice, and he, not having just reason for declining, was 'fined two pounds lawful money of province, and Elijah Vincent was appointed by. the magis- trate In sald officé..--Thomas Cum- mings, J.P."
