Bhe found no difficulty in answering when the other man, Captain Sherâ€" win, told her of his love , words came quickly enough then, but they will not come now. Her heart beats too {ast to allow of speech ; her brain whirls, making wild confusion of his words and the meaning of them. And yet, what is the meaning of the warm thrill of joy which possesses her whole being if it is not "Yes." He looks down at her expectantly, with an intense anxiety and susâ€" pense deepening the lines in _ his face , then he says : "I understand. I have been too hasty, too wiolent. I am almost a stranger to you. How should you be able to answer me, unless with a ‘No‘"! But don‘t do that if you can help it.

I will wait until you have quite decided. Whatever your verdict may be, I will accept it without complaint, as indeed I should. Yes, I will wait." As he speaks the tears rise to Elaine‘s eyes. This man, so every one says, is utterly and irretrievâ€" ably bad, and yet could the best of goo«dl men be gentler and more considerate with her ? She does not speak, but she holds out her trembling hand to him. He knows that it does not mean "Yes!" that she has not signilied ber acceptance of him; and he takes 1t reverently and raises it toward his lips. But he restrains himsel{; he will not snatch a lovâ€" er‘s privilege until she has granted it to himâ€"if she ever should do so. He holds it in his strong grasp, and lays his other hand upon it, with chivalrous love and protecâ€" tion. "You are quite free, remember," Ke says in a low voice, his eye fixel on her face. "Free to give me life and hope and happiness, free to send me into the outer dark“sa again. Tell no one, dearâ€" est, fillâ€"â€"‘" He stops, and reverâ€" ently draws the shawl round her. "If God is good and meorciful to me, I may do that for you some day," he whispers. But, low as his voice is, it is heard by someone else beside Elaine. It is heard, as has been every word, by Lady Blanche, standing behind the curtain, her eyes fixed, with an exâ€" pression not good to see on so fair a face, on the two forms silhouetted against the sky. _ _ _ F There are tears in her eyes, on ber cheeks, and lhe sees that she puts up ber hbhand to wipe them away.

He was the highest in rank, the wealthiest, in every way the best parti present ; and she was, In her own opinion, the most beautiful woman there. Why should she not be the Marchioness of Nairne ? All the evening she had been laying her plans. She would get the Bannisters to call on him, to ask him to the Grange.

"You hbave torn it, my lady," said Fanny. Lady Blanche caught at the preâ€" text for speaking. "Yes," she said. "Let me pin it up for your ladyâ€" ship," said Fanny,; then she sudâ€" denly touched Lady Blanche‘s arm, andâ€"indeed, almost drew her beâ€" hind the curtain, as the major busâ€" tled past them. fik sg "Elaine! â€" Elaine here you are."

The three, Elaine still on the marâ€" quis‘ arm, passed the two watchers,, then, as tney disappeared in the crowd, Fuuny glanced up out of the corners of her eyes at Lady Blanche. "What a pity, my lady !" she said, insinuatingly. "It‘s very badly torn, and it‘s such a beautiful dress. If I had it for an hour or two I could mend it so that no one could see it had been rent." * Lady Blanche looked down at her half suspiciously. "You areâ€"are you a dressmaker ?" "Xo, my lady," said Fanny, casting down her eyes with meek humility for a moment ; a moment only, however, the next raising them to Lady Blanche‘s face with watchful scruâ€" itiny. "I am not a dressmaker. I live at the Castle, with my aunt." Lady Blanche colored. "At the Castleâ€"at the Marquis of Nairne‘s?" she said. "Yes, my lady," angswered Fanny, demuroly. "‘The marquis who has just gone withâ€"with Miss Delaine." es "Sho is a friend of yours?" said Lady Bianche, fecling hber way, for she saw that this little red haired woman had some purpose in view.

"Dear me," said the major; "I‘m afraid we‘ve waited till the crush. Goodness knows when we shall get our flyâ€"carriage." "Let us walk, papa," said Elaine. "Very well, my dear," assented the major readily. "Here is your carriage, marquis," he added, as the castle carriage drew up. The marquis hesitated a moment. "If you are going to walk, perhaps yoll&will let me come with you," he sa F _‘The marquis, with Elaine on his arm and the major trotting behind them, made his way downstairs. _ "Ono moment," said the marquis. Ho went to the carriage and took out a light fur cloak.

"Elaine, you won‘t mindâ€"the open air, ch ?" The marquis put in a word now and again, but Elaineo remained silâ€" ent, wrapped in his cloak, her hand upor his arm. Ho walked with them to the garden gate, but declined the major‘s genial invitation to enter, and he held Elaine‘s hand in his, his eyes fixed on her face with a tender reverence, that was at the same time passionate and gentle. Then he went down the hill to the castle. Letting himself in by the private door in the tower, he passed through the hall into a small room which was half labrary half "den." Luigi Zanti was sitting in a chair apparently asleep, but geemed to hear the marquis‘ and looked up. _ _ yaa? "Well, Nairne," he said ; "have you enjJoyed yourself ?" _ .

The injunction was not necesâ€" sary. There are certain crisis in one‘s life when the heart will adâ€" mit of no confidant. Elaine could not have told her father if she had tried to do so. There seemed to her something almost sacred in the conâ€" fession, the avowal the marquis had made. He had not only told her that he loved her, but he had, in a manâ€" ner, confessed that his future moral and spiritual welfare depended upâ€" on her. He had spoken of his past with the sorrow und bitterness of remorse, but Elaine was as far as ever from realizing what that past had been. She was almost as innocent and unspotted of the world as a cloistered nun, and though his words and moved her and still thrilled her as she recalled them, they conveyed no tangible idea to her.

And, could she have known it, there was another heart too full to sleep that morning. The marquis, too, lay awake, thinking of her and all that her love would make possible for him, and the first rays of the sun that stole into his room found him, as they found Elaine, still awake and pondering over the crisis which love had wrought. x C an admirable plece of mechanism which had been newly wound up. _ _ Fanny Inchley‘s brain was busy, too, hut she slept as peacefully and soundly as a child, and woke late in the morning as alert and acute as Mrs. Inchley occupied a small set of apartments in the west wing of the castle, and so remote from the main building and the state apartâ€" ments, as they were rather grandâ€" tioquently called, that the marquis had, so to speak, forgotten their exâ€" istence. He seldom saw Mrs. Inchley in his rare and short visits, and Fanâ€" ny he had not yet seen. for Mrs. Inchiey had strictly desired her niece to keep to their own part of the castle whenever the marquis was "in residence," and Fanny had so far obeyed the injunction as to confine her rambles about the place to such times as the marquis was out or at meals.

(To be Continued.) CHAPTER XIL ONTARIO ARCHIVES TORoNTO marquis bad (Boston Daily Globe.) In the United States the oldest timepiece is the famous Endicott sundial, made in London in 1680, anud it was brought to this country the same year by Governor Endiâ€" cott at the time he brought the {leet of ships laden with immigrants to settle in and around Saiem. The dial stood for a great numâ€" ber of years in front of the Endiâ€" cott mansion in Salem and was in the hands of the family until sixty or seventy years ago, when it was placed in the care of the East Inâ€" dia Marise Society of Ssalem. The Bociety held it in trust until 1869, when it came into the possd@ssion of the Essex lastitute, where it now. rests in a glass case in the museum. Being unable to reclaim the origâ€" ginal, members of the family have on â€" dutqrfnt_ occasions had _ repliâ€" of some kind which daily course of the ‘Destament _ tells us known in Jerusalem cas made in bronzes and p-l;;:;d near their residences, _ * ‘The sundial of King Ahaz, who lived 742 years before Christ, is the first dial on record in the world. The dial was a graduated lnstrument fhiaving degree marks of some kind which showed the daily course of the sun. The Old ‘Destament tells us that it was known in Jerusalem as early as seven centuries before Christ and the maaner o{ its mention indicates that it was a novelty in that city a1r that time, ‘The sundial took many forms. The art of dialing inâ€" volved mathematical problems of considerable complexity, and it is very likely that this contributed to the knowledge oi mathematics which the world possessed at that early period, Imperfect sundials were common in Rome about a century and a half before the Christian era, so common indeed, that, as new inâ€" veations nowadays afforda materâ€" lal for the paragrapher, they were targets for the funny men of the period. The Romans later perfected a gundial suitable to their â€" latitude, which was much more accurate. The dial was later adopted and imâ€" proved by European nationa, and some very acurate ones were made by clock makers throughout Eurâ€" A dial, or rathor a series of dials of every conceivable description forming a structure, was erected in Whitehall, London, in 1669, by order of King Charles IL It was the invention of _Francis Hall, a Jesuit and professor of mathemaâ€" tios at Liege, Vertical dials, inciinâ€" ing dials and dials for showing tune, as computed by various nations at different periods, were all included and ranged on platforms. O these howls or brackets appear to have been the most attracâ€" tive. One, on the first platform to ghow the hour hy fire, consgisted of & little glass howl filled with clear water. This howl was about three inchkes in diameter, and was placed in the middle of another sphere, about six inches in diameter, conâ€" sisting of several rings or circles, representing the hour circles in the heavens The hour mwas known by applying the hand to these circles when the sun ghone, and that circle where the hand felt purned by the sunâ€" heams passing through the bowl filled with water showed the true hour. King Alfred measured time by urning candles, marked with cirâ€" cular lines to indicate the hours. Inâ€" genious devices were adopted to prevent draughts from striking the flame, and thus, as it were . make "time speed on its flight" hy meltâ€" ing the tallow of the candle hefore it was jurned, but this was a very imperfect method of timekeeping. | The gnomon, the predecessor of the sun dial, was projm@bly one of the earliest devices for the reckoning of time, and it may reasonahly be conâ€" cluded that the Egyptian pyramids with their great altitude formed part of a design for timekeeping hy the shadow thrown on the desert sandg.
