"You great stupid l" throwing the heart into the salad bowl. "That's the nicest thing you’ve said to me yet," ete., etc., and the next few remarks are made so low, and the two 1 faces are bent so intently over the new- ly-concocted salad, that it requires a well-directed soda-water cork upon the nape of Faulkner's stooped colossal neck to rouse them both to a sense of the surrounding scenery. "Haven't you done that salad yet t" "Ages ago i" retorts Dulcie, mistress of the situation in a moment, flinging back a merry face of unconcern. "And it you hadn’t been so absorbed at tho other end of the boat-I can use no othnr word-you would have discovered long ago that we are starving for, want of our food." But Miles Faulkner came back from that water party hopelessly in love with Dulcle Halliday. He owned it to himself, somewhat ruefully, as he and Geoffrey in a hansom together followed the broug- ham that had been sent to meet the young ladies at the Great Western ter- minus. Miles had been unaccustomed to ladies' society, he was a rough, man- ly man, and women had played no part in his life. In London he knew no- body, and, save an occasional dinner- party, either at Mr. Dane's or at some old-fashioned friends' who invited him because they knew his parents, he had had no insight whatever into the So- ciety life that most young men lead in town during the London season. This had never been a source of regret to him; his virtues were all sterling and solid. He was staunch to his friends, kind to those beneath him, clftvalrous and honourable towards all, but he had no qualities such as enable a man to shine in society; the small talk of London life was a closed science to him, the half-familiar, half-con- temptuous tone of conversation which young men affect now-a-days in talk- ing to ladies was utterly unknown to him. Women were to him strange, wonderful, beautiful things, too good to be spoken of save with bated breath, I too pure to be touched by the rough, hands of life's sterner realities; every lady made him think of his dead moth- er, for whose sake, till his dying day, he would respect and worship her whole sex. ner was by nature'so faithful and Pf patient that to love for a day,'w1th him, meant to love for life. Saeh a man falls an easy victim to the first pleasant girl who takes the trouble to interest herself in him, and as a rule his conquest is not only rapid, but it is complete. Miles Faulk- g "13 that the way t" he asked, and his great fist closed on the rosy finger-tips f that held the tender green lettuce leaf l between them.

"Oh! well, don't make such a fuss, the others will hear, we'll say no more about it; just go on working, please, you haven't got half your leaves in yet1 and I am at my heart.", h The particular form of treatment to which this alarming wound was sub- jected, belongs to the lore of lovers and nurses, and need not be entered into at further detail. No doubt, like many other surgical operations, it proved beneficial in the long run, but the immediate symptoms were --no chloroform having been employed - there of violent agitation. , "rm a bratist I can never forgige myself.

' , As Geoffrey entered the house he noticed with sui'prise, a somewhat un- usual incident. Albert 1riehet, tol- lowed by Mr. Dane, came out of the library door. Triehet looked flushed and excited, in good spirits too-tor he bowed with effusion to the Miss Hallidays and nod- ded gaily to his fellow clerks-and seemed disposed to linger in the hall and join the little party of young peo- ple as they entered. Angel and Dulcie had met young Trichet before, their father had once brought him down to dinner, and they hated him with a deadly hatred. Dulcie bent over the hall table, where lay a letter directed to herself, which she slipped into her pocket with a slight flush. Angel turned her back upon him, and began talking hard to Miles Faunrner-Geot- frey nodded to him carelessly. If Mat- thew Dans had had the remotest in- tention of inviting his third clerk to join the supper irarty--whieh is per- haps doubtful-the reception he en- countered from the tour young people evidently decided him against any such hospitable inten‘t._ -- .. . . , "i/iiiil "THEE ieii-itiiGeit dismissed and his smile of triumph chains?! Into a acowl. When he trot on o the "Perhaps it is fate," he said to him- self, as the humwm drew up at the house in the Cromwell Road, and the lights of the hall and the welcome of a cosy supper-table recalled the two men from their somewhat serious re- tlections. - Thus it was with Geoffrey Dane. Absence made him unjust and unloyal to his love-whilst the constant pres- ence of one who was fair to look upon, and pleasant to talk to, began to make him faithless too. Angel was very sweet. There were no mysteries about her. She did not withdraw herself from him-on the contrary she welcomed him with smiles. Perhaps, indeed, he had, un- wittingly taught her to love him al- ready. Geoffrey, without any undue amount of vanity, had perhaps been sufficiently successful in life tor this thought to be not altogether unna- tural. People may talk of hard-hearted par- ents, of mischief-making friends-of jealousiea, of lovers' quarrela--not any one of these thirups--nar, not all of them, put together, can be so dire a foe as that silent, secret enemy, who comes stealing, like an evil spirit, be- tween those who have loved-pushing them away and away further and fur- ther apart, back with drawn sword from their Paradise-till at length they become hopeless, because they are helpless-they struggle no longer with their fate, and are content to drift away into the cold greyness of a per- petual division. Mistrust, uncertainties, doubts of our own heart, doubts of the heart that we have won-misunderstandings, silent fallings away from one another of souls that have bound themselves into one. All these things arise Miasma- like, out of that one great evil of Ab- sence. Across that insuperable chasm of bodily separation, the heart strives in vain to retush--the pen only makes matters worse. The self-inflicted tor- tures do but thrive and grow like weeds, choking up the fair flowers of affection, until they wither and perish. And yet, if for one golden minute hands might clasp, and eyes might meet, and faltering tonguea-however lamely-murmur broken words of re- pentance and of regret, then whole years of miserable misunderstandings might be washed away, and all the mischief melt into nothingness, like snow before the noon-day sun. In that one sentence, is summed up the major portion of the infidelity of lovers all the world over. The one is away-the other is there! “L'absence est le pire den manx," sings the forsaken ring-dove in the old French fable of Lafontaine. And for lovers' vows, and lovers’ truth, it is the worst misfortunes under the sun. a boon in return, that it seemed to him a erueltr-born of a hard and wicked nature-that she should have withdrawn even that little from him. He could not forgive her. It was as if she had betrayed him. Every day of absence hardened his heart towards her. And every day he saw Angell "You will marry one of those girls, one day." The words came back to him, again and again, with one of those horrible twinges of pain which a past love, even if it is partially stifled, has always the power to inflict upon us at intervals. And they returned to his memory, too, with a sense of impend- ing fate that was almost a superstition. Perhaps she had been right. She, who had taken his life’s devotion as a sport, who had not loved him, who had not even been true to the compact, so one- sided, which he had striven so hard to keep with herl For it was thus he thought of her. He had poured forth his all at her feet, craving for so small It. was plain to him that his uncle desired him to marry Angel-that Mr. Halliday desired it-and he told him- self that no doubt Angel herself de- sired it also; and day by day, as he found himself constituted her compan- ion and her guide, it became borne in upon him that a man might go further and fare worse than take Angel Halli- day to himself for 3 wife. Geoffrey for his part was thinking about Angel. He was not-and he was perfectly well aware that he wss not -in the very least in love with her. Geoffrey was E,' able to blind himself about this. I e knew perfectly'well that love does not leave the pulses calm and even, and the reason wide awake and active, as this did. When he started forth to meet Angel. there was no longing fever at his heart such " had possessed him on those winter days when ho had hurried down to Hid- den House, filled with a passionate eagerness to. behold the woman who had been a Divinity to him. Angel's sweet placid beauty never made his pulses beat any faster, nor did her quiet, yet lovely eyes. as they met his. produce upon him that strange be- wildering fascination, that “thrill of pleasure that is almost pain," whigh the presence of one woman alone up- on earth, had ever produced in him. He was perfectly well aware of the dif- ference-and yet he told himself that h", doubt this was the better thing for 1m.

This set forth that the gastric juice of towls had a wonderful effect on dull yellow pearls, and would, if applied according to directions, quickly restore their original beauty. So, in fear and trembling. Miss Blank ted the big pearl to a rooster, which she securely . confined. and, an the recipe preseribed, after two house time killed it and relieved lt of its valuable luncheon. " to the result, her own words were: "Of oeune, I felt like nothing mere not lea than a murders-e, but the pearl no ever so much improved." ' i In the early days of her career Miss Blank found that some of the Pearle ntrusted to her, after being well rub- bed with the bare band, her usual mode of polishing. still persistently remain- ed dim. So she read up about pearls, unearthed and (opied a great number of quaint old-fashioned recipes for re- storing lustre and color. Most ot these remedies for "sick" pearls proved, when tried, to be useless. but a few, of real value. Among the latter, the old East Indian trick of rubbing the stones with'boiled rice wins found to be a good way of polishing them, and the more modern European device of bak- ing the gems in dough an excellent one, for removing a tinge. of yellow. Next it occurred to Miss Blanid that she, might aro undertake the cleaning of jewels, a matter which duringthe tieuttrn the found greatly ncglecu-d by overworked maids. She has now earned quite a reputation as a"pcarl donor," for these gems which are found lying loose in the oyster shell, and need no cutting, or polishing co en- chtnce their beauty, as if to make things even, require more curt‘ful usage than any other precious stone. 'iht-y become dull and discolored or, as jewellers express it, get. "sirk" and "die." In England, where it 1-0 often happens that family jam-ls are stowed away for many years, it has been dis- covered that such treatment is very injurioue to pe:.rls, "hivhindeed ought from time to time to be exposed to the direct rays of the sun. 'lhen Miss Blank began to study precious stones and became a good judge of their value. This knowledge emu opened another. branch of her chosen calling, namely, the selling and exchanging of stones, old ornaments, etc. For instance, Mrs. A., who hold opus, thought them unlucky, and was only too delighted to exchange them for the turquoise which Mrs. B. felt sure made her look sallow. Th3: Mrs. C., found one really fine pearl set in an old-taiuced lazket, was simply dying to match it and have a pair of earrings made, but could not afford the neces- Bury outlay. However, she had dia- mond screws she was willing to part with, and now she sports in her ears most becoming big pearls. 1hen Mrs. D., had an unpaid dressmaker's bill on her tonscience which she simply did not dare show to her husband. But Miss Blank, by selling for her a quan- tity ot old gold ornaments, enabled her to settle the account herself. As a matter of course Miss Blank always keeps the names of exchanging parties secret, even from each other, and in their new settings the stones are not recognized. 'lhis suggestion was not lost on Miss Blank, whose fancy was at once taken by the idea of such an artistic and pleasant pursuit. She got the neces- sary letters of recommendation and, without delay, set to work. Her first step was to introduce herself to some good jewellers, and two leading firms readily consented to set jewels brought in by her at a considerable discount on their ordinary prices. "Why, you are a genius! Here is your vocation. You must go about ask people to get out all their old odds and ends of jewelry, and than show them what beautiful things those same odds and ends would make." Shortly after she found herself oblig- ed to do something to make money she chanced to see a quantity of old-fash- ioned Jewelry which a friend had in- herited. In spite of their clumsy, out- ot-date settings the beauty of the stones inspired Miss Bank. She be- gan to make sketches of different or- naments in which they might be set, and so pretty original were her designs and so much igenuitr did she Show in planning the rearrangement of the stones that her friend exclaimed:. A Young English woman whose card is inscribed “Miss Blank, Visiting Jeweller," is pioneer on a path which promises to lead to fortune; for in this the second year of her venture she can boast a long list of patronesses containing many well-known names.
