"This is what I wish you to see,” said the earl. “The moment in which the sun seems to touch the waâ€" ter, a red gleam passes through it, then the next moment it is quite ldark." They watched in silence, while the dark figure stood motionless and still behind them. The sun, as it set, seemed to touch the outer edge of the lake; a red gleam came over it, beautiful and curious, and then almost at once, it was dark. “We will go home by the coppice,” said Lord Caravcn; and his wife reâ€" membered that the long avenue of trees extended to the very gate. She could walk almost side by side with them, yet quite unseen. ' They had not mentioned her name. Could she have been wrong in her suspicion? Had she mistaken her husband’s- words? They Were standing at the edge of the lakeâ€"a cold, dark sheet of water now,â€"and she established herself bah hind a group of alder-trees. - It seeinâ€" ed to her that the silver veil on the fair woman's head and shoulders.abâ€" sorbed all the light there was. Preâ€" sently she drew near. Another group of trees separated her from ' tw0 who were so unconscious of presence â€"â€" large trees with aying branches; through them the jht wind brought every word to her. They talked only of the light on the water, and the sudden dark- ness there â€"- of some one who had known and loved Lady Hamilton be- fore her marriage. She laughed comiettishly over it. How long was that nonsense to last, the unhappy young wife asked herself. How long was she to stand under the darkening evening skies, with the great alderâ€"branches swayâ€" ing to Fild fro, the soughing of the wind in her ears, the ‘fire of love, the madness of jealousy raging in her heart â€"â€" how long? It'was 'almost unbearable. She felt inclined to cry out that it must end. She clinched her fingers, she bit her lip; then sud- denly she heard the sound of her name -â€" her maiden name â€" f‘Iâ€"Iil- dred llansonie!” What were they saying? Was the earl telling her how he had been compelled to en- cumber himself with a. wife he did not love? Was he saying that, al- though. he did not love her and they were strangers to each other, she cared for him? Was he laughing be- cause she had owned that she was jealous of him? “I cannot bear it!” she thought. The next moment there was the sound of a shotâ€"something seemed to rattle through the alderâ€"branches â€"â€"-there was a low cry, a startled exâ€" clamation. “There are poachers in the wood," she thought; “he will go in search of them, and then he will find me!" ' She turned to fly; now that there was the danger of being caught she seemed to wake to a full-consciousâ€" ness of what she was doing, the bare fact that she was listening seemed to come to her as it had nev- er done before. She turned to fly; not for anything that could be given would she be caught there. She wanted to hasten. but she could not; it was as though great weights of load were fastened .to her feet. Her brain was dizzy; the unusual excite- ment, the frenzy of love and jealâ€" ousy, had been too muclr for her; her tall, graceful figure swayed for a minute. like a. leaf in the wind. a low moan came from her lips, and then, as in a dream. the white, angry face of her husband was looking into hers and licigrasped her arm in a. hard, cruel grasp. ‘ (To Be Continued). _.‘...._........- HOW IT SOUNDS. Many persons who ought to know butler _ persist in inispronouncing some or the commonest words in the language. A schoolboy explained his tardiness one morning by saying that his father was away from home, and had sent him a telegraphic desâ€" patch to let him know that he would be a day or two late in returning, as he had accepted an invitation to take part in a Patriotic celebration. The boy had stopped to read the teleâ€" grain. The explanation sounded a. trifle “fishy” to the teacher. “What is the progr’m of the celebration, Tomâ€" my?” she asked. "I don’t know, ina’ani,” he replied. “Papa didn’t say in his telegr’in.” There was a twinkle in the boy’s eye; but his face was preternaturally grave, and after eyeing him a' mo- ment suspiciously, the teacher sent him to his seat. Later on she look- ed in her dictionary. A TOO COMMON ATTl’l‘UIDl'}. A small girl who has just begun to attend school recently brought home a pumpkin-seed, and told her mother that the teacher said that al- though the seed was white the pumpâ€" kin would be yellow. , “And what will the color of the vines be?" asked the mother. The little girl replied that the teacher had not taught her that. “But,” said her mother, “you know, dear, for we have pumpkin" vines in our garden."

The case of Mrs. Robert Young, 0 Stanley street, Trenton, is one that has caused a great deal of tall among those who are acquaintco with her. Mrs. Young is now in hei seventy-eighth year, and is quiti vigorous 'for a woman of that age Three years ago she took a chill. which appeared to affect her whoh system. Her lower limbs and body swelled to such an extent that Still could scarcely move them.

The chills which '00 apparently the original cause MRS. YOUNG‘S BASE. of the trouble, became chronic, and affected her two or three times a week, and after a. chill her skin would turn a dark brown color. HE] friends did not believe she could re cover, but nevertheless did all they could-for her. Three doctors tried their skill, but to no purpose, and the strongest consolation they could offer was “Well, you know we are all growing old.” Several advertis- cd medicines were then given her, but with no Better results. In August. 1901, Mrs. Young had become so bad that her daughterâ€"inâ€"law had to come from a distance to nurse her. She brought with her some Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and persuaded the old lady to begin their use. In the course of a few weeks thert could be no doubt that they WON helping her, and the doctor ad‘ vised continuing their use, and noW, after using them for some months. the swelling that had affected hei limbs is gone; ,the chills no longei bother her; her stomach is restored to its normal’ condition, and till heart'm‘uttering that had made if necessary to bolster her up in bet has also disappeared. It is no won! der that the case has excited mucl comment, and the editor of tin ICourier, who has personally in- vestigated it, can vouch for thi facts‘related above.
