Georgc had suggested that a. couple of other ladies should be_present, to make the trial fairer; and it was decided to invite Isalml Bourne. and Miss Laura. l’ocklington, daughter of the great Mrs. Pocklington. Mrs. Pockltngton would come. With her daughter, and it was felt that. her presence would add auth- ority to the proceedings.

Of course he would. among a thousand! It was his business to know people and he did not mean to fail, especially in the service of so con- siderate an employer. So he walked in confidently, sat; himself down. and received his instructions with profes- stonal imperturbability. The ladies stood and smiled at Stubbs. Stubbs sat and peered at the ladies, and, being a. man at; heart, thought they were a set: of as likely gtrLs as he’d ever seen; so he told Mrs. Stubbs afterwards. But. which was Nelly Game? “it isn't her in the middle," Stubbs, at last. "Then," said George, "we needn't; trouble Miss Bourne any longer." Isabel went and sat down, with a scornful toss of her head, and Laura Egcklmgton and Neaera stood side by st e. "I feel as if it were the judgment of Paris," whispered the latter ,audi- b_ly. and hfrs. Pocklington and Gerald Itlttered. Stubbs had once been to Paris on business. but. he did not see what it. had to do with the present oc- casion, unless indeed it were something about a previous conviction. “It isn't her," he said, after another pause. pointing a stumpy forefinger at Laura Pocklington. There was a little shiver of dismay. George rigidly repressed every indi- cation of satisfaction. Neaera stood calm and smiling. bending a. look of amused kindliness on Stubbs; but; the palm of the white hand on the mantle- piece grew pink as the white fingers pressed against it. “Would you like to "see me a little nearer f" she asked,.and, stepping for- ward to where Slubbs sat. she stood right in front of him. George fell: inclined to cry “Bravo!” as if he were at; the play. Stubbs was puzzled. There was a likeness. but there was so much unlike- ness too. It really wasn't fair to dress people up differently. How was a. man to know them? “Might I see the photograph again. sir ’l" he asked George. "Certainly not," exclaimed Gerald angrily. George ignored him. » “1 had rather," he said. “you told us what you think without it. said somebody ever so long ago, and never got it back." ”\\_hen did you make this copy 9" “M hen I sent away the original." “To whom i" began George again. “I won't have it," cried Gerald. “You shan't mom-examine her with your in lernal insinuations.

And they all comforted and cosset- ed Neaera, and abused George, and made up their minds to let the world know how badly he was behaving. “It's our duty to society," said Lord 'l‘ottlebury.

The eruption often leaves one portion of the body as suddenly as it comes, and with- out any apparent cause. reappears some- where else. \\'hen it. disappears it. us- upon those parts which are subject. to the premure or contact of the clothes. Children are particularly subject. to the affection. The eruption lasts from a few hours to a. few days. during which time frequent outbreaks may occur. The cause. of the disease may be ex- ternal or internal. Certain external tr- ritants and poisons produce it. Not infrequently it is brought; on by the stinging of nettlcts or certam_msects. for example, fleas and mosquitoes. By far the most common cause. how- ever. is some disordered condition of the stomach and intestines. Certain articles of food. as fish, oysters. clams. crabs, lobsters, porkâ€"especially sausageâ€"oat- meal, mushrooms, raspberries. and. strawberries, favor the development of this disease. It is to be remembered. however. that when an eruption is caus- ed by any of these articles, a more_or less pronounced individual peculiarity exists. The successful treatment of "hives" depends upon the detection and removal of the cause. The diet: should be of the simplest kind; all stimulating foods and drinks being avoided. if the stomach is dis- ordered, treatment should be directed toward restoring it. to a. healthy condi- tion. : The eruption itself may be treated with lotions and baths. Ease is often afforded by sopping the affected parts with vinegar and water. Alcohol, either diluted or of full strength. applied as a. lotion, will frequently give decided relief. . Underclothing which is found to be irritating should not; be worn. and the bedâ€"covering should be light and the sleeping-room cool. â€"_â€"â€"-â€" l AMOUNT OF Sl'iElL‘P REQUIRED. "A healthy infant sleeps mast. of the time during the first few weeks.” says the Medical Journal. "and in the early years people are disposed to let children sleep as they will. But when six or seven years old, when school be- gins. this sensible policy comes to an end, and sleep is put off persistently through all the years up to manhood and womanhood. At the age of ten or eleven the child is allowed to sleep only eight or nine hours. when its parents should insist on its having what; it; ab- solutely needs, which is ten or eleven at least. Up to twenty a. youth needs nine hours' sleep, and an adult should have eight. Insufficient; sleep is one of the crying evils of the day.

'The Third Section is one of the three divisions of the Russian police system. here of which are uniformed, and par- trol the streets of the big cities just. as they do in this and other countries. They arrest the petty offenders. the thieves, thugs. murderers and black- lcgs in general. who always infest. cities of importance. There is nothing unus- ual about-them except their willingness to be.bribed on ever' occasion. They are miserably paid; in not, the members of the. three divisions are. underpaid, and, as a. result. blackmail, bribery and extortion thrive in Russia to tent unknown in the world over. SECOND AND THIRD SECTIONS. The Second Section is matte up of the rural police. the chiefs of which are up- pomted by the State, and the ordinary! officers of the different. villages. These are the most repacious wretcth on the face of the earth. and the way they grind down the helpless people in their control would bring tears to the eyes of a man of stone. The Third Section, whose chief is 'spokcn 9f in a whisper as the \Vhilo lorror, is made up of the dreaded secret police.
