She took great interest in her dress and jewels. hoping that he would no- tice her presence more than he gen- erally did.

Sir Owen was proud of her, and said so in his blunt fashion. "There will not be a. woman In the room like you. Violet," he said; and shc- wandered wliether there would be any one with such a load ot anxiety on her mind. The hall was always held at the Assembly Rooms in Lllford. It was very exelusive, very select, and at tlmes very dull. But this year the party from Dumber Towers was a nrge one; several ortiettrs were Tity. tlng there. They at first voted the Hunt hall a decided "bore"; hut when they saw Lady Chevenlx they thought differently. She was worth coming many miles to see, they de- clared; and she was soon surrounded by a crowd ot admirers. The rooms were beautifully decor- ated and filled with a brilliant :rowd. Lady Chevenix looked for Felix tirtrt; she saw: him, but he did not approach her.

It was something to see all the men admiring her; to see how they surrounded her; how they strug- gled to be of service to her; how her smiles and bright words swayed them " the sweet western wind sways the leaves. That was her triumph. Ind. to one so vain. it was no small one.

"Go back to your dancing,"' she did as he had directed. She had not dared to dis- obey, or to plead with him, or to urge one ontrenty on him. She read contempt tor her husband and pity for herself in the eyes ot Major Mor- rison. He made no allusion to the scene. nor did she; but when the dance was ended, she asked him to take her back to the lame spot. When she reached it Sir Owen was gone. -- __ Felix had been to escort (Lady Maude to her carriage-the party from Bramber retired early-and as he was returning he saw Sir Owen assisted Into his carriage.

They said but little during the burney. and Felix was glad when the carriage reached Garswood. “You will come In with 1110'!" said Lady Chevenlx: and seeing- the white frightened face, he {can have done anything to help or.

If she had been alone, he would have followed her, and then she would have had to save herself as the best could; but Felix was there, and the very thought of his presence comforted her. Ho stayed with the furious man, whose violence changed Into extreme friendliness, until he had stupefiul himself with drink and was carried off helpiess to bed, when Felix started for Lllford. As he left Gurswood, Felix raised his face to tho calm skies. No reference to this little scene passed his lips, but in his mind he felt Intinite pity for her. . '. A few days later Slr Owen,, feel- lng ashamed of his recent eseapade, lnslsled upon haxing u dinner-party. Lady Rolfen that \etemn diner-out. with her daughter Lavinia (who had murrled " curate and subsided Into 'paa"itilt work'),, the curate Iilrnn self (a mild, inoffensive gentleman who had perhaps deserved " better tate),, the Rev.

The buonzgy “billed to give this little party to remove any bad impression there might be on the minds of the people after the bail; He also reached upon being most um- table, polite and attentive to his wlre especially. , But circumstances were ngmnst him. Eh famine horse tirtt morn- lng had been found lame,, and the grooxn had the insolence or the cour- age to tell him that he had caused it himself by his reckless riding. He turned to dlnmiss the man on the Spot" and then suddznly rernrmNtd that he could not amputee him, tor he was one of the most valuable ser- vants that he had. He was obliged to rein in his temper, which in itsel! was enough to drive him almost mad. so little was he ncrustomod to self- control. We favorite mastitt, too, was ill, and he was annoyed about that. The veterinary surgeon said that the dog had better be shot, and Sir Owen swore roundly at him; to which the surgeon answered by saying that he wourl phase himself, and that toe the future he should not attend at Garswood If hrs were sent tor. Bir Owen was very angry. " Heaven help iter y' he said. "Poor Violet l." It was ineredlbto that n. buronet worth forty thousand a year could not swear as Ito Lked; sucn a thing was not to be borne. Yo, when tho guests sat down to dinner, sir Owen was not in the best of humors. Ho was a. discon- tented man by nature. Tho tlrtrt thing that always occurred to him was to complain, to find fault-.. never to praise. It he saw clear soup, he was cross because it was not thlck. It it were thick, he wanted it thin. Cm that particular day he was wry much annoyed because some of his favorite fish was not cooked as he liked it. In vain Lady Chave- nix, seeing a storm brewing, tried to avert it; tho more amiable and complacent, the looked the blacker and angrler he grew. An uncomfortable silence fell over the guests. Felix did his best; he tried to make conversation. but it was dit.. ricult with those muttered growls running on like an under-current. At last some other dish raised Sir 0w- en‘s ire,, and he exclaimed: It one (iii-4h wvris placed before him, he was qulto sure to complain be- cause it was not another. 2mm guests saw Lady Chevenix‘a face grow as pale as the pearls she wore. Her dlence irritated her hus- band, for he cried out angrily against her with a word so "our“ and insulting that there was not a man present who did not long to horsewhip him. She rose with quiet grace and dignity to quit the room'. she felt that she owed it to her own self-respect not to remain. No sooner did he see Iter Jo so than he sprung trom his seat and cried: "If I had married some one who understood these things I should have been better orc' , They admired her more than they c0uid say--" was impossible to help it. Her grace, her beauty. her self- possession, her eelr-trmtrui, her tact, all struck them. There was no one present who did not think highly of her for her behavior through so try- ing a scene. Sir Owen tried to laugh it off. Be made some uwawnrd apolo- gies about having been annoyed by horses, dogs. and servants; never- theless, the incident left two dis- agreeable reminders tor him. Darcy Lonsdale told him that same evening that the next time he insulted Lady Chevenix in his presence he must seek another adviser. Captain Bill did better. A . "Sir Owen does not always choose his jestu wisely," she said; and order was at once restored. "I want to speak a few words to YOU. Bir Owen." he began. when on the point of departure. "You invite gentlemen to your house," he told him, "and then presume to insult them by behaving in a most brutal fashion to your wife. Do not repeat the experiment. Sir Owen.

At the last circus there were 85 separate acts, and they were executed twice a day, without any delay or friction whatever. The acts included pretty much every- thing known to the sawdust ring, in addition to a Kiralfy spectacle employ- ing about four hundred men and women. Of course, the most important part is the original assignment of al the" turns, and the extraordinary part of it all is, that this is not done by general rehearsals, but on paper. Six months be- fore the circus opens, Mr. Bailey makes out a list of the number and the kind of turns he wants. Then he sends his agents broadcast over the globe and col- lects them. Every act is allowed seven minutes, but the greatest inienuity has to be shown in the way t II must occur, so that tne interest of t e audience may always be kept up. Then many of the artists appca; in several turns, and time must be given them to make the proper changes of costume. The clowns must be so placed as to appear at their best, but not so as to interfere with the ring or trapeze turns. Properties must be brought out and put in place for one act while the pre/ceding one is taking place, and the aerial acts must be such as to attract the attention of the audi- enee from the preparations which are going on below, and vice versa. This is all arranged betore the first performance and so skilled has Mr. Bailey beeome in arranging these details that he can tell within ten minutes just how long a performance will run. Like a "produe- er" of a modern play, so Mr. Bailey's work ends with the rise of the curtain on the first performance. Then it is up to Mr. Frank Melville, the ring master, who practicaly stage-manages the show. Mn. Newirred--George, dear, since we have been married you don't seem to want to spoon like you used to.
