'A little impatient excxama- tion broke from her lips. PUB GBEEEE AND MARGUEBITE Her companion. a tall. good-looking young fellow of about twenty-five or thereabouts was speaking. “ I dare say youl are right, Miss Sylvester, but-'-â€"-" “ Of course I'm right,” the girl cried impatiently. “I tell you if you were your mother as a poor little baby of two Iyears; old being torn away from her mother. and set up for people to buy. Ask my mother to show you the great scars on her wrist where they burnt them. to get her away from her moth- etr. Perhaps then you will realize what makes me feel as I do. Perlnps you have never heard the story.

The whole of Europe will be plunged in a general war. \Vould it 'not be better to let Greeks and Turks fight it out alone, than to cause such a dreadful thing as a European war? u- V“ " When you put it in that light," re- luctantly, "I sup-pose I must say. yes. and yet it seems very terrible to me that people can stand around and see the Greeks killed by the hundreds and â€"â€" no}. offer to help them. Of course, I suppose I know naming about it. but it any man wants my highest estegem \Vith these parting wows .VV‘HI Marguerite Sylvester was English by birth. but rich Grecian blood flowed through her veins. Her father was an Arnerican, who had come to England. fallen deeply in love with her mother, and married her. Marguerite was their only child. A few weeks before the above conversation took place. Dick Chester had appeared at the “Grange." He was a youn American whose fath- er 'had been 1\ r. Sylvester‘s greatest. friend, so he received a hearty welcome for old association’s sake. He had put up at the hotel. intending. as he said. just to spend a few days there. and then to $0 abroad. The “few days"; however. ad lengthened into amonth. and still the young gentleman had shown no signs of takin his departure. The truth was he had allen deeply in love with pretty Marguerite, but. as she treated him exactly as she did doz- 0418 of other young fellows, he had felt until to-day, that there was no chance for him. Her words. however. set him to think- ing. \Vhy should he not do as she wished. He was an orphan, without a single relative that he knew of. in the testable cowards." That decided’him. The next morning. as Marguerite was on 'her way to the breakfast room. her maid handed her a note addressed in ninlr'a well known hand. She tore it {xiiiâ€"d hancied her a note Dick's well known hand. opgn athread: “74‘---_L-_ Open an Dear Miss Sylw'ester.â€"I have been thinking over what you said yester- day. and have decided that you are right. I am off to Greece this morning. I shall claim the reward which you of- fered me. when I come back. after the war is over. If I should meet the fate which hundreds of others. far braver men than I. have met. be assured of one thing, I will not die a coward. Ever Yatgjs. . 611me it “as not true.

Marguer- ite realized that, as she sat by the open window, dreaming that the war would soon be over and Dick would be home again. , A little .newsboy was coming down the street. Marguerite could hear his 017 of "Latest news from. the W'ar. Great bravery of a young Lieutenant." before he was within a block from their house. She rushed down stairs. called the boy, got a paper. and hurried up to ‘her own room. where she might pur~ sue its contents undisturbed. Great. staring black letters greeted her. eyes. She mend it carefully over until she came to a paragraph, which after 1118 Persual, left her in a swoon. on the .floor. It read: “ Friday eveningâ€"The Greeks. were surprised by the Turks. while an ymg‘ their evenin meal.

'he might have proved the sal- vation of Greece." VGLIUU UL UICCW That was all. it did not mention that he had died with her name on his lips. Those. of course, to the world, would be but minor details. The lady famed in story who was pre- sent at the ball on the eve of \Vaterâ€" 100, and is still living, hale and hearty. at the truly noble age of 93. is Lady Louisa Tighe. She has a perfect memory, and remembers the incidents of the ball; the figure of \Vellington; the bugle sound which called the men to arms. It was at her father's house, the Duke of Richmond's. in Brussels, that the historic ball took place. In 1825 she was married to the Col- onel. the Hon. William Tighe. He died in 1878, but the dear old lady, one of England's noblest links with the past ‘ still lives on. and writes a most beau- ‘ tiful. delicate hand. as if she were still a girl of 19,’i_:1stead of 90. The woman who has probably had more political influence during the past fifty years next to the Queen is un- doubtedly Mrs. Gladstone. Catherine . Glynne was the daughter of Sir Steph- ' en Glynne, the owner of the Hawarden and other large estates. and of his wife. the Hon. Mary Braybrooke. The late Sir Stephen Glynne was her brother. and Lady Littleton was her sister. Thus it is through his wife that Mr. Gladâ€" stone came into possession of the fam- ous Hawarden Castle, in Flintshire. now well known over all the world as his residence. The marriage took place on July 25. 1839, about six months be- fore that of her Majesty. She is now considerably over_80‘ years of age. â€"--Aâ€".L__ -3 LL.“ Niagara-o n-the-Lake. \I'Uuatuvl “VI: V V v- UV The most remarkable member of the aristocracy is probably the aged Duch- ess of Cleveland, famous by her own individuality. and still more famous 1n the person of her celebrated son.
