A WOMAN'S WAR. CHAPTER KHZâ€"Cowman. Her voice was calm and psssionlecz. but there was something in the tone which t'nriil- ed the about: of thosepresent. Mr. e words. I have acted for the bestâ€"l have done what I thought right." She did not repmt Hicm. towel to her. “I will attend to all your things," she said. “If you do not like to return to the Court. I will have them all prepared, and send them to you." - Margarita made no reply, but her dark eyes lingered for halts minute on the housi- keeper’s face, leaving in that estimable lady’s mind a conviction that she was not wnsidcred of the least importance, and then Miss Cameron's companion turned away. Mr. IAystou s ke to hcr-shc did not hear or heed. T e door was opened,and shfi went slowly out. They watched her with an uncomfortable feeling. “It is hard for her if we have been mis- tnken," said Mr. Beale. "How could anyone be mistaken who saw her at the safe 2" asked Mrs. (irame, indig- nantly. “She is guilty enough, but she has more efl'rontery than most people.” In silence Margarita walked out of the house, and, as she over the threshold, she said toherself : ‘ "This is my tomb. ilere I have left my youth, my love, my hope, my fair name ~- ere the best part of me has been killed." She went on through the park without any definite idea as to where she was going. She was beginning to lose the power of connect- ing her thoughts. The one idea that haunt- ed her was that after this disgrace Lord Kylestono‘ .cmild never own her as his wife: ‘ " "I have brought it all upon myself," she said ; “but I was acting for him.” The sun was shining now in its full noon- tide splendor; great c ustcrs of blackberries were on the hedges ; the autumn morning was fair and pleasant, but she. walked through it wit out glancing around her. Once she did wonder whither she was going -â€"â€"whither her uncertain,troinbling footsteps would lead her; she could not tell. Never would she return to \Valton Court where the beautiful heiress livcd who had her hus- band's money, and who loved himâ€"never would she return there again. She would walk on, she said to herself, until from sheer fatigue she fell and could walk no farther. So she proceeded along through the highrond and over the fields, past quiet little homesteads where the rooks were cawing in the trees and tho’ glcaners were busy in the corn fields ; and us she walked the burning pain that sccincd to hold her haul like an iron crown grew worse. Presently a red mist came before her eyes ; then there was a. murmur 115 of rushing water in her ears; and then she turned aside from tho higli~road into a green lane that was in summer filled with wild roscsiind woodbine. She never remembered very clearly what followed. The earth and sky seemed to meet. She caught at the trunk of a tree, and tried to steady herself, and then she gave a great infilitencd cry-â€"tlie shadows of evening were f ling, andsbo was all alone, and death seemed so nenrnn cry that pierced the silencc,eiid then she fell with her face hidden in a heap of fallen autumn leaves. “'hcu the luwycr and Mrs. (ironic return- ed to the Court, dire tribulations mvaitcd them.

"What else could I have done when [saw her at the safe?" he asked, humbly. . “You should have sent for me," said the young heiress, with a burst of pride. “1 nm mistress hero.

Hisdark-eyed darling, who was so unwilling to part with him, who was so troubled at losing him, would be all his own soon. He remembered the flower-“Testbed window and the darkly beautiful, tender face, that smiled at him from it. There would be no flowers on his return ; they would be dead, and the long, bare stocks would be drooping. But the lon ved for face would be thereâ€"the red lips wit their radiant smile. the dark eyes with their passion of welcome. llow slowly the vessel seemed to make her way! If he could but fly to Margaritaâ€"if he could but cleave through the air and find himself by her side! He gave a great longing sigh, and then con- trolled himself nnd thought of the window where Margarita’s face, bright as a. star, would be awaiting him. He telegraphed to Marpcth as soon its he landedâ€"“I am in London,nud shall be with you in twelve hours. He knew that was best ; it would give her time to prepare for himâ€"to get all ready; above all, she would remember his parting words, and she woull be there by the win- dow to greet him. How did he control his impatience? The Earl of Barton laughed at him; the porters, servants, railway officialsâ€" every one with whom he came lll contactwthought he was his hands burned, his whole soul \seemcd swept byn fiery thb of longing impatience. Ilc tried to calm the fever of his longing, but he was so near home how could he help it? He was in the train at last, and the train had started for Marpeth. Steam was pow- erful and quick, but not so powerful as the passionate love of his [mssionatc heartâ€"mot so quick as his fast flying thoughts. The express seemed to him to crawl. Ilis darling would be standing at the window waiting for him. He pictured the tender curves of the lovely lips. the fire in the dark cycs,tlie dusky coils of shining hair; he saw her grand in her perfect womanhood ; and then he started to find himself wee ing like in. child, ed to see her again. He heard the porter crying “Marpcth l” and before the train had stopped be was out on the platform. Noâ€" slie was not there. He had wondered if she would come, half hoping that she would not, for he had fixed his whole heart on seeing her at the window. The afternoon was drawing to a close; them was a soft, tremulous mist that grew colder as the night advanced. The air was blue a few stars were seen. Lord Rylcstonc walked home, leaving directions for his lug- gage to be sent afterhiniâ€"walkcd through the chilly, silvery mist,looking at the bare trees as he passedâ€"walked with thinking only of his wife. There was the well-known spire, there were the green lanes that he had secna thou- sand times in his dreams, and there was the house where his darling was waiting for him. He stood for a few moments by the big, brave man, who was beginning to make for himself ii. better name even than the one he had inherited, grew faint and sick with the intensity of his own joy. He raised his head rovcrcntly, “I thank Heaven for its goodness 2" he said; llllll thenopcning the gate, he entered the grounds. Margarita. did not come hastening to meet him and to greet him light and swift as a bird, because he had asked her to be at the window, and he knew she would be there. “Patience !" he said to his beating heart. In one more minute he would see the window â€"sce her. He knew the path; and then, as ii pilgrim who had journeyed hundreds of wenrymilcs,hc raised his eyes to the window -â€"those loving, eager eyes that pierced the chill November mist, that would almost pierce the clouds if she were beyond them. A sharp cry of pain and four came from his lips. She was not there ! The shock of the disappointmentmndohini grow faint. He seemed to lose sight and hearing. . “My darling !" he cried, stretching out his hands to the empty windowâ€"-“whcrc is she?" . The Clllll mist grew denser.

She would open it, beautiful dark-eyed Margarita ! l\oâ€"it was opened slowly eby same woman who looked besitntingly outintu the night. Lord llylcstone i'cconiiized her as one of the servants who had been there when he left his homo, and at the same nio- mciit the girl recognized him. “Mr. listcourt Y‘sho exclaimed. very sorry sir. I did not know first.” “But you cxpcctcd inc ?" hc iiitcrrogatâ€" C‘l. “No, sir." she replied, holding the door open for him to pass; "I did not expect you; but I am glad you are come." He was standing in the ball then, looking round with :i blanched face find trembling lips. There was no Margarim-no wife. He spoke slowly. “Where. is your mistress?" he asked ; and the girl raised a frightened face to his. “130 you not know, sir?" she said. “My mistress is not here. She went away very soon after you lvft homo. and she has never returned." He did not cry out. A great dumb pas- sionato sorrow seemed to have overtaken him. There was a chair near, and he sat down upon it, echoing the words slowlyâ€" “Shc wrnt away soon after I did,and she has never rctunicd. How can that be? I “I run you at angry I am sorry for it.

As his eyes fell on the familiar objects, he trembled like one seized with a deadly chill. Silently and thonvhtfully the girl brought refreshments, and set them be- foie him. He could not touch them. He ured out some brandy and drank it. “lVill you bring me all the letters that you have received since your mistress went away?" he sskei]. In a few minutes the girl returned bring- ing'n small bundle of Margaritn’s letters in her hand. She laid them down by his side. “I hope, sir," she said, wistfully, “that there is nothing the matter?" Even in that hour of bewildcniient and v pain he was careful of her reputation.- “No,” he said, trying to speak cheerfully. “There must have been some niistakc~nnd by reading these letters I may find it out." Ellen went away, leaving him with the letters in his hands. He read them carefully, but they did not contain the least clue to the mystery. The only source of comfort was, that in them he recognized a great love of home. The direc- tions given to the servants weroininute,an(l he noted that they often had reference to himselfâ€"everything that he prized must be attended to; and the letters of the latest dates all referred to her coming home and to what was to be prepared. Evidently. in her mind, there was not the least intention ' of staying away. Nevertheless there was no mention of where she was staying or only allusion to herself wasâ€" “Send any letters that may ni'rivc,ns usu- al, to the general Post-office, London and be careful to post the incloscd." Lord Rylestone sat puzzled, bewildered.nl- most inclined to think that he must be in seine dreadful dream. He called Ellen in and made her repent every word that hut1 been said over and over again. He was as hopelessly iii the dark as ever. \Vhitlier or why his wife had gone away was incomprehensible to him; he could not even over so faintly account for it. He did not know what to do. He opened his pocket- book nnd took out the letters that she had written to him. Not one of them contained the name of a third person; they were filled with loving words to himself, and with earnest prayers for his return, but not one word hinted at her leaving homeâ€"yet few of them had been written at home. She had deceived him ! He could not deny that; lie avowed it to himself with deepest pain. She had purposely and will- fully misled him; and she had written those letters purporting to be sent from homc,niid she had not told him that she intended being absent. ' “'hnt was he to think? “'hy had she gone ‘3 He thanked Heaven afterward that no doubt as to her fidelity had ever occurred to him. Iler absence was a. terrible mystery, but it would some time or other be solved. Perhaps she had not felt quite sure about the date of his return ; it might be that she would be there on the iiiorrow. He tried to persuade himself that it would be soâ€"tbat she would come on the morrow. and would tell him all about herself, and with whom and where she had been. Per- haps at that time on the mprrow they would be sitting together laughing over the mysti- fictitious. It was a. cruel disappointmentâ€"n strange welcome home. “Margarita,” he said to himself, softlyâ€"- he wanted to hear the sound of her name:- “Mnrgnritn, where are you 2’" - The wind sighed and the bare branches hustled. T here come no other answer. The chill of the November mist seemed to enter his soul. He sat all night in the drawing- room, saving to himself that she would come on the inorrow~â€"tlint she would surely come. But that iiiorrow, and many others, came and went without brin ing any news of her -without bringing oit ier word or letter. I Nor, try as he would for information, could lie obtain more than this, that shortly after he left home his wife was absent two days. She then returned, it appeared, and made preparations for a longer absence, carefully concealing from every one whither she was going, and not even trusting her servants with her address. He could discover no more than that. He knew that she had no relatives, no friends, and he could notimngiiic where she was. She seemed to bo wellâ€"her letters were firinlyand plainly written. l her. I “I slinllvonmd," be thought, “if this lasts muchlongcr." He had grown thin and pale, and had dark shadows round his eyes from long nnd weary watching. He looked like the ghost ofithe hnpp ' man who had hastened through the chi lautumii mist to meet the wife he began to think he should never see again. ‘ He went to London, and be found, from inquiries that he made, that his last. letter was lying unclaimed. He grew seriously alarmed; if Mar nrits were living and well, nothing would inve prevented her from scndin ' for that letter. A thrill of kcenest unguis 1 shot through his heart. “'hnt could have happened to her? It must be some seri- ous accident or death. People who met Lord Rylostonc during those two days in London hardly recognized him ; the handsome face had changed as a I light changes a flower.

The law has, inthe matter of bells, less disregard for the nerves than regard for the privileges of religion. Secular balls of all kinds have one by one been disestsblished in the metropolis. The mufliu bell, together with all other noisy modes of advertising wares, has been in theory at least silenced. The call hell for ringing workmen up to time is prohibited like steam whistles and horns, used for the same purpose without the sum- tion of the sanitary authority. Musical hand bells are liable to the same suppressions‘iw the street organ, the common enemy of all mankind who live above the basement floor. Church bells alone, except at one time the unorthodox bells of Roman Cntholichliiive been subject to no statutory repression. Bells in their purely musical function may, if they pass the bounds of the definition of nuisance be restrained by injunction, as happened in the well~known case of the Roman Catholic chapel at Claplinm; but; the prisisiiigbell, the funeral bell, and the bell for service are not only allowed but enjoined by the can- ons. Some repression on these most dis- turbing forms of ringing may fairly be ask- ed. Passing bells may well be listened to altogether in towns ; and funeral bells iii the neighborhood of houses might, without inipi'o ricty, be required to be closely innf- fled. 1 otter reminders of morality are found nowadays iii the columns of the daily news- papers than in the church steeple. oâ€"«o.»o- Decline of Professional Beautydom. Professional ' beauties, says the London World, were rapidly beconiingdisturbing iii- fluences in the best conducted London cir- cles.- To be the lose, or to boast the pres- ence of the rose, in a. brilliant company was one thing; the display of ii multitude of buds vying in their ambitions with the mature and perfect blossom, was another. The spirit of a. burning, and, in nearly every iii- stancc, most unbecoming couquetry was in- stilled into ii number of breasts. Society was agitated by the discussion of rival claims till it grow sick of hearing about them. There was not a youthful or a middle-aged or elderly beau who did not think it incum- bent upon himself to start some lady who had been sufficiently unfortunate to attract his favourable attention in the professional beauty line. 'llhis, it was felt, was going a little too far. There was no reason why in- dividual cavaliers might not have their pre- ferences, but there was every reason why they should not ask society to indorce their choice. If l’aris had only one of a. multitude of connoiseurs in feminine beauty, the ap- ple which he gave (:0 Venus would not have neglected goddesses. The system of ro- fcssional benutydom was, in fact, fouiu to be incompatible with the harmonious work- ing of the social machine. Drawing-rooms were split up into different camps. The gentlemen who pleaded the claims to pre- eminence of the particular lady they had honored with their championship weregrow- ing as much nuisances as, according to the refrain of Bon Gaultier's ballad, the man who lost his heart a short time ago. More- over, thc absurdity of the whole thing was patent. The professionnlbcauty was only brightest! Her own vanity might be grati- rcsultcd in rovokcd a wholesome reaction.
