I I ¡CYCLING NOTES. -.0.-
I CYCLING NOTES. -.0.- Coventry is turning out more bicycles at the present time tlaan it has done since IS9(i. The hour record has again been improved upon, Robl having ridden 45 miles 166 yards in the sixty minutes. A cycle carnival is being organised by the cyclists of Govan on behalf of the sufferers in the Ibrox football disaster. » A trouble associated with cycling is the oily state that one's clothes and hands get into when giving attention to bearings or chains. In both cases petrol is a marvellous cleanser, and if put on a flannel and held over the greasy spot for a short while before rubbing, the stain will be effectually removed. It is announced that J. A. Metcalf intends retiring from the race path. His career on the path has been long and successful, havÙJM won for four years in succession the Welsh Gu6 mile championship, besides numerous scratch races. He was the nrstW elsh rider to win an English N.C.U. championship. Trailing cars will figure largely in the various cycle paraheld throughout the country this season. A wide scope will tlras be offered for effective decoration; tableaux can be artisti- cally arranged beneath an overhanging canopy, and besides, the trailer steadya the bicycle to a certain extent during the many forced stop- pages. In spite of frequent attempts by Australian riders to improve upon the half mile flying start record, the time made by J. Platt-Betts on his Dunlop-fcyreti safety, at Sydney, in December, 1897, still stands. Forty-seven seconds dead does not seem a very formidable task, when the world's record for the distance is 41 sees. The date for the great road race from Bor- deaux to Paris has been altered to May the 31st, owing to the date first decided upon being too near that selected for the Marseilles-Pairis event. We have -not beard of a single English rider preparing for this event. It is twelve years since G. P. Mills, a British representa- tive, won the event. I There is one article which every cyclist should have in his wallet, and that is a repair outfit. Though, owing to the vast improve- ment in the manufacture of pneumatic tyres, punctures are not so common as in former years, still they do occur, and often happen at the most inopportune moments. liiilers should therefore be provided with the necessary articles to effect a wayside repair, by carrying with them a repair outfit of firs»-class quality, such as the Dunlop Midget," then, when the puncture doesTarcive, -an ordinary man will have repaired his tyre and be on his way again in five or ten minutes. The cycle thief who is brought before the Birmingham bench, expects and gets but littie mercy from the judges, who are vainly en- deavoaring to stop the practice of cycle stealing so prevalent in that city. Some very heavy sentences have been-given from time to time, and only recently a man charged with the offence was coramiited ta the -sessions. Per- sonally, w» are -afraid the practice will never ba stamped out, the facilities for stealing and disposing of the cycles are so great, that many cycle thieves run little risk of capture. It bebovea everyone when purchasing a. second- hand machine, to make searching enquiries as to the character of the seller. The movement to erect a national memorial to the late Mr. J. K. Starley, does not seem to be meeting with sufficient support to bring it to a successful issue. Many meetings have been held on the subject, and suggestions voiced by those interested .as to the most suitable form the memorial should t,¡,ke, but so far the movement has got no forrarder. Another meeting-was recently held at the offices of the Cyclists' Touring Club, which was attended by many prominent men in the cycle world, Mr. Robert Todd, vice-president of the National Cyclists' Union, being in' the chair. It was decided to form the meeting into a provisional committee, and to endeavour to gather the 'nhh. Ian nn 1H" <>

His little daughter Olive is adopt/d by his brother- in-law, Edward Desmond. At six years old she iiieii suddenly &r.. *nd '.Nlrs. I)eFitioiid are ¡ abroad.

CHAPTER XIII. NOT A MOMENT TO LOSS. "What have you got?" asked returning reason, and Evelyn Brotherton could not reply. He remained dazed, as if suddenly aroused from a wild fit of delirium to the ordinary grooves of common sense. For one moment only a light from the past flickered over his brain in that mysterious interval between consciousness and slumber, merely to be lost like a flash of lightning across a lurid sky. To dream and forget the fate of the visionary Evelyn sighed; his, nerves were on wires; he felt strangely moved. "I suppose I was dreaming of her," he said, with asui-ile at his own ardour. Then and there, alone with the stillness of the night, he vowed he would win Olive for his own. Their short acquaintance, his scant knowledge of her, the sorry tale of her father's past, all these things weighed as nothing to the great love which took possession of him. As socn forbid a tender bud from bursting into full-blown, glory under the warin influence of the sun, as seek to check love in its first, glow. Such love as Evelyn's bade fair to weather the storms of life, to beat down obstacles, override difficulties, defy Fate. If in that quiet midnight honr he conld have foreseen the future with its tempest billows, and death's bliick shadow threatening his dear one, would his courage have bubbled up with such sure belief in its powers ? What if he had known that, all unsuspicious, she was dwelling under the roof of one whose heart held murder Treachery lurked in Edward Desmond's smiles, his pleasant speeches, the anxiety with which lie strove to please her—treachery of so foul a nature it, must have transformed the man's sinful mind into a veritable hell. Could 01 ive Yale have known two wakeful J bra-iw were thinking of her that night—Evelyn with yearning love, Edward plotting against her life XIow near the days drew to the great rasis. Soon Arabella's scruples must be broken down. Unfortunately Arabella could not be left in the dark. Edward feared her, knowing her emotional temperament, but his fear took the, form of lavish oelf-pity. "All would go smoothly if I hadn't, Arabella to deal with," he said, inwardly. "If she turns coward we are lost. But surely, though weak and hysterical, she will sec we must save our- seivwfc: and, after all, personal preservation is a natural instinct. Arabella can't, be really fond of the girl. She would not be quite such an. ass as all ti):Lt The following day Arabella noticed her hus- band appeared ill-at-ease. She questioned hiin somewhat nervously as to his health, seeing he ate no breakfast, but looked palo and morose. Tailor in Edward was- an unusual sign, his customary redness having increased of late. "You don't look well, Edward," she said, pressing a second cup of coffee upon him, "and you've eaten nothing. Is anything the matter ? I' I did not sleep last night. I suppose I am not quite up to the mark, a bit overworked and I worried. Later on we must take a holiday. A week or two at Crow's Nest would do me no end of good. Olive, have you been told of our country retrente [ expect Arabella. has described the joys of the place." > I "No," said Olive. "This is the ifrst I have • heard of Crow's Nest." "A delightful spot, cooed Arabella, helping herself to jam. "We bought the little place, about live years ago, and have visited it con- stantly. Edward loves quiet, and Crow's Nest is a tiny wooden chalet on the top of a high, Sussex hill, most- dreadfully out of the way. There is a road up, or rather an apology for a road, a track wide enough for a station fly to crawl along. Steep as it is I generally brace myself to walk. Once up there, one feels right e away from the world. The air is excellent, the views delightful. On one side hills, hills, hills, on another the vast track of sea. It seems to put fresh life into one." "We must take Olive to Crow' Nest, if she can put up with the very primitive arrangementa." "1 ain snre 1 should love, it," Olive declared. "And I think it sounds delicious, a chalet on a hill." "Well, it certainly makes a ehftnge." declared Arabella. ".But. we won't go till the summer it. would be terrible now, cold and miserable. It makea me shudder to think of the wind blowing through the walls in the winter. I dm'l know.hmy. 0»nji«h .lives-there." "Who is Hannah ? asked Olive. "An old woman who care-takes and does everything for us when we go to Crow's Nest—a perfect (misuse. She keeps .the place spotlessly clean and cooks beautifully. I always say I believe she i8 a witch at any rate, tlicrf4 iiiiist, be something uncanny about her. No ordinary woman could lire absolutely alone on the top of a hill the whole winter through without its affecting Hannah delights in solitude. She is a. widow, and-sometimes when I draw, her out to speak of the long winter months, she betrays the oddest fancies. She thinks on darli- nighh* ""Iwn, the wind moans round the house, that, her husband speaks to her. She can hear his voice through the stormy elements, and finds in these flights of imagina- tion immense comfort." "•It sound rather creepy," owned Olive, wi^li a shudder. "Oh, you will like old put. in Edward, quickly. "Arabella leads her on to tnlk a lot of nonsense, but Hannah is a real good woman. Now, if you got ill, for instance, and nefded bracing air, we should march you off to Crow's Nest at once, and I warrant you would pick up in a day or two. It's regulaj mountain air, most reviving." "1 am not likely to be ill," laughed Olive. "You know I am extraordinarily strong, though people won't bolieve it because I don't look robust. Nothing ever seems to hurt me. Vulgarly Speaking J. am 'hard as nails. Olive looked so singularly ethereal as she delivered herself of this sentiment that Arabella smiled involuntarily, declaring it was a very un- lucky thinl to my. "Not thnt. I. am superstitious," declared Mrs. Desmond, with it shrug of her shoulders. "Don't you bel;levein ,the evil eye? "asked Olive. "I am not sure that I know what it is." u 011, a sort of drc-;tdful influence. I suppose comething you feel in the atmosphere. If Hannah had the evil eye. you could not be happv one moment at Crow's Nesfe. You would feel stifled everv time ehe came into the room." "Really Well, I am glad I'm not susceptible to influences, for it sounds very uncomfortable. Virgil speaks of an evil eye making cattle lean. wonder if it would have » wasting effect on pt-FTle ? If so, I should say you were per- petually under its rays. Though not by any means lean, you have such a fragile appearance I coipld imagine that the eyes of voire person had darted noxious rays in your direction. It was anciently believed that the first morning gia-ice of the evil eye was certain destruction to man cr beast." "And we are still at breakfitst. What a dreadful thought said Olive, speaking in a spirit of fun. and quite unaware of the gathering frown which darkened Edward's forehead. "WItiLt absolute rubbish you are talkmg, H he muttered, glowering at Arabella, and purposely not including Olive in his scowl. "I should have expected you to shew more sense. First of all you try to take away poor Hannah's character, arrd then go on by alarming Olive wiih the foolish recitation of absurd supersti- tions. You see I'm not well, so "take the occasion to try and worry me with a lot of idle chapter. I have a splitting headache." "I'm very sorry," said Arabella, humbly. "I really did not, know I was annoying you. Dbn't go to the City to-day." "I must. I promised to attend a meeting, but I will return early this afternoon unless I feel better. "It is your birthday to-morrow, Sundayr Edward. We generally go to the theatre, don't we ? Shall I take tickets for to-night, or would you rather I waited till Monday ? -Then if you are still indisposed we can put it off." "Oh, my birthday," with a deep sigh. "I had quite forgotten. At: my age it is better to- forget. You have such ft memory .for dates. I am not very keen about the theatre myself, but you and Olive go." j "And leave you all alone on your birthday night?" exclaimed Olive. "No, no, we won't do that, will we, Aunt Bella ? n "Look here, Olive," he said, "mind if you are out shopping to-day that Bella does not get me a present. If you see her choosing an appalling tie, some embroidered slippers, or a fancy cigar-case, put down your foot with a strong hand like a good girl, and forcibly pre- vent her. I am too old for presents." "I wish I could get something you would really like," said Olive, pensively, a thoughtful expression stealing over her sweet face. "You have been so wonderfully good to m# and I can do nothing in return for all your kindness." "Nonsense-! You bring sunshine, you cheer us up. In fact, we are both grateful to you, eh, Bella ? He looked to Irts-wife t^endorse tliis sentiment. She nodded. "Indeed, yes. r What, should I do without my little Olive ? The days used-to seem long and empty, now they simply-fly; It is everything having a young person in a house." Olive grew red with pleasure at the affec- tionate words. "If you really want to give me something I should both value and admire," said. Edward, let me have for a birthday-card one of those" pretty oid photographs of yourself in short frocks. I was very struck when you brought them down to shew Bella. They are such charming pictures." "How nice of yon to think so. I feel highly Battered," cried Olive. "It shall be .put in a lovely frame, the nicest I can find, and under- neath an original inscription 'Please when you see this do not fail To give a thought to Olive Vale.' There you did not know I was a poet." Edward smiled grimly, picturing himself handing over the port ritit to Dudley after he had looked for the last, time at the still image of his daughter, snatched away in the very hour of her father's freedom. No last kiss, no farewell word, only a beauteous form robed in the majesty of death. "I am afraid Edward really is ill," said Arabella, as he left the house-. "This is the first morning he hs3- been bad tempered, or spoken sharply to me aioco JOB came." Olive soon cheered- Mrs. Desmond with re- assuring words. The girl had a strange power over the older woman, and could always wield it for good. They had grown to be such thorough companions. Even the fear of the future grew less terrible to Arabella, when in the cheerful presence of Olive. Edward would see to everything. Edward was so clever. He had. a greot, a wonderful idea. She could not try to guess. All in good time it must be revealed. She awaited joyfully a pleasurable surprise, when the curtain should be drawn back, the veil raised, and her eyes view the more intricate working of the drama. That afternoon as Arabella and Olive returned from a drive, they found Hetty on their door- step. "Oh, I am so glad I did not miss you," she said, grasping Olive's hand lovingly between both her own. "1 came with a message from mother, to ask if Mrs. Desmond would spare you to us this evening. I am sure you will be good-natured and let her come," turning to Arabella with an imploring gesture. "You see, mother is getting up a theatre party all in a hurry, so I am rushing round to invite people at the last minute. The party is being arranged chiefly in honour of a most delightful person named Merritt, a certain Captain Mcrritt who has often entertained us, so we want to do something really jolly in return. We have taken a whole row of stalls. Won't it be fun?, If Miss Vale accept#, I am to, go on.-and, leave; a note for Evelyn, asking him to join us, because anyone oould see at a glance he admires her awfully. You would not mind if she. lost: her heart to Dr. Brotherton, he is such a thorough good sort." leI am sure-Olive wilt- be delighted to accept such a tempting invitation," replied Arabella. "I shall be very'glad for her to go. as she has been disappointed of a theatre., My husband is not very well, and seems disinclined to take us anywhere." Hetty danced round with delight, her exuberant spirits were bubbling over. Evidently she had quite forgiven Captain Merritt. • "Splendid!" she cried, not referring to Mr. Desmond's indisposition, the detailing of which j went in at one ear and out at the other. "Miss 1 Vale and Evelyn Brotherton will just make us complete. We shall be a good-looking party, all pretty girls bar one." Here she patted her neck and pulled down her lips to destroy the shape of her piquant. face. "I must call you Olive. Miss Vale sounds so horribly stiff. You will excuse the liberty, won't you ? "Yith a mock curtsey, she slipped to the door and kissed her hand. "I've got a hansom [ waiting, and shan't get home within the hour if I stay chatting. Au reco/r to-night, then, dinner first, you know, at seven sharp. Come as enrly as you can. Wo dine at home." "What a madcap creature she is," said Arabella. Olive felt strangely excited. It. was not the thought of the theatre which brought the tender rose-pink flush to her cheeks, or the animated sparkle to the blue eyes. Evelyn Brotherton mi^ht be there; the possibility thrilled her with anticipation. Arabella cuiei'ed gleefully info Olive's raptures, as she spoke of Hetty's kindness in thinking of her, and di.-cussed what dress should be worn, what ornaments, what, flowers. Arabella seemed to return to her own girl- hood. She felt the old forgotten sparkle and ioy well up like beautiful clear springs in her rusty soul. Once she, too, had conjured dreams of possible romance, of Love in a fairy garb creeping across rose-strewn paths, bearing his sharp darts tinged with glittering light. But Love turned will-o'-the-wisp and passed her by, flitting 011 like a butterfly to fairer flowers. Arabella saw him go with weary heart, realising the winter o' Iter days had begun. Then, witile still young though seemingly old, she married Edward Desmond, a hard-worked City man, unlovely in soul and body. Half-enviously she compared Olive's mys- terious charm, her boauleo'.s form, her dancing I smiles to the girl Arabella, who had given her I life into Edward's keeping. Wiiat. a rich gift this beauty, a priceless treasure, at whose shrine the most stubborn hearts unbend in worship. Olive might command the world, but she little guessed her power, and the sweet aim- plicity of her iliaiiner enhanced the charm. "You must wear white, all white this even- ing," said Arabella, "without a touch of colour. You will look like a graceful lily stolen from a quiet moonlit garden to sweeten the London atmosphere. I will lend you a single row of pearls to wear round your throat, pearls which have been in our family for centuries." "But I should be afraid of losing them, Aunt Bella." "No, the clasp is very safe, and pearls will shew off the whiteness of your neck." "How good you are. I shall be so proud of mj lovely clothes." "I want you to be a success. You heard what Hetty saifi 'Anyone could see how much Dr. Brotherto.1 admired you. I must admit I thought him very attentive. Hetty won't get a look in. I wonder she was so anxious for your company. I expect she is running after that Captain Merritt. Het ty would like to be married, l'ln sure." Edward Desmond did not, return early, so Arabella concluded he must be better. She occupied a big armchair in front of Olive's bed- room fire, watching the girl dress-and personally directing the maid, who arranged the silky coils of fair hair on the exquisitely-shaped little head with its unconsciously proud poise. The evidences of breeding in Olive chiefly excited Arabella's admiration. The girl might have been a Royal Princess, so subtly suggestive of the purple was her whole bearing and manner. Never had Mrs. Desmond enjoyed a.n hour more. The unselfish pleasure she took in adorn- ing Olive for her part in society lifted the mind of the older woman from its slough of despond. When Olive at last emerged, she looked radiant and dazzling. Her cheeks, flushed pink, gave just the-necessary touch of colour to a truly beautiful figure, frail, supple, elegant in its gown of white satin. Her arms were bare, save for half-a-dozen bracelet-bands of velvet from shoulder to elbow. From her waist trailed two long sash ends of white tulle embroi- dered with silver lilies and flying swallows, while a glittering silver lily crowned her hair, On her fair neck Arabella's costly loan found a fitting resting-place the jewels seemed sym- bolical of Olive's pure calm nature—"all the shade and the shine of the sea in the heart of a pearL" A pearl of great price," thought Arabella, as she looked at the girl. W ill Evelyn Brotherton have sense enough to gather the treasure while there is yet time, before sh& drifts away Heaven knows where—before Dudley is released from his living death ? Or would Evelyn be like the majority of his kind, a laggard and a dreamer in love's garden, not making his own opportunity, but waiting for the fates to consider and pamper him like a nurse with a suckling child." "I am Cinderella transformed by a fairy god-mother," declared Olive, as Arabella helped her into a long white cloak. "I wish you were coming witli me." So do I; but, you see old people are not always wanted. Besides, I conld not have gone with Edward unwell. He may return home feeling worse, and my place is by his side." "Oh, I hope he will be better. Are you sure you like ine. to go ? "Yes, yes, indeed. I shall love hearing all about it afterwards. I expect Edward in every minute, so I shall not be dull." Arabella kissed her warmly. "Good-bye, my lovely lily. You wi-U, I know, do me credit. I am very proud, of you." As Olive drove to the Heathcotes the old sense of mystery and bewilderment filled her. Was it a fairy tale, after all ? Had anything more wonderful ever happened to a poor, penniless girl scouring London for employment ? Surely it was- just as strange as the sudden advent of a little old lady from the chimney corner ? The golden chariot, the silver slipper, the transforma- tion of tit. rats, and then the Prince in all his glory, these things were but symbols of actual .1 facts occurring daily now in her eventful life. She felt her pulses stir and her heart flutter. After all, Dr. Brotherton might not be there. It was unlikely such a busy man would be disengaged at. the last moment. Oh 1 why had they not thought to ask him before ? The very C, idea of disappointment sent a cold shiver over Olive. "I'm in love," she told herself, confessing the truth at last, with a hot. wave of shame. "In lore with a man 1 have only seen twice, so much in love that I would die for him. How unmaidenly! How terrible! What would people think if they knew ? How readily they would sneer, or, worse still, pity. Poor little girl, she has lost her heart, lost everything, heart, brain, self-respect, and is wattdering abo-at in a land of dreams. Like little Bo-Peep, she doesn't know where to find them.' A smile replaced her momentary humiliation youth dispelled, forbade, sadness. Besides, the carriage had stopped, lights gleamed from the windows of a large house; now she would learn her fate quickly. Hetty grooted her on the staircase. "It's all right; he is coming," she said. For the first time in her life Olive stooped to dissimulation. "Who is coming?" she asked, her heart giving a great leap of joy. Neither^her voice nor her face deceived Hetty, who saw through the thin cloak of pre- tence, and chuckled inwardly. Why, Evelyn, of course you remember, I was going on to ask him, and I feel quite certain, from his manner, he had another engagement, for he looked as if he wanted to come most, awfully, and yet seemed worried how to manage it. Luckily mother said in her letter she was asking you. I sent in the note, and he- came out to talk to me. Having uncloaked, Hetty escorted Olive to the drawing-room, loud in her exclamation of delight at what she called Olive's "frightfully fl-tei-ting dram" The word "fetching" impressed her guest a somewhat slangy and ugly but Hetty had a vocabulary of her own, from which she I selected such terms as pleased her rapid brain. She led the way to a charming apartment, which gave at once the idea of brightness and luxury—with its wonderfully-painted ceiling and hangings of rosily-pink brocade. The lounges and cliaii-s iLli took their note of colour from tho pink of the rose, or the soft green of the leaves. A great bouquet of roses nodded their heads from a uil jar of delicate blue porcelain, towards wnicn Hetty pointed, ana wmsperea In Olive's ear: "From Captain Merritt, to mother—such a joke i She doesn't know yet, poor soul She is doing all she can to catch him; he is an Honourable, and has splendid prospects. I should have been n. fool to throw him over." Olive hardly heard these confidential remarks, for at that moment Evelyn advanced, look'ng handsomer than ever. In everyday costume he I had thought Diive sweetly pretty, but now, in her spotless white, with the soft roundness of neck and arms revealed, he saw that she was absolutely lovely. Hetty glided away, leaving them together. Captain Merritt WJIS late the whole party waited for him. Hetty muttered: "Like his cheek 1" stamping in rage with her satin slippers nMler cover of a thickly rnched skirt. "I had a previous engagement to-night, and yet 1 am lCrc," said Evelyn. "Does that shock you ? "it rather-depends on tho previous engage- ment," replied Olive. "Have you disappointed somebody very deeply ? "I dou't know. I promised to take my mother out, and she had been looking forward to it all this week. We were going with a family party to dine and sup at the Carlton, as an uncle of mine is in town for a few days. lie's a very good fellow, an uncle by marriage —an American. We are very fond of him. My mother happened to be in when Mrs. Heath- cote's letter came, and like a brick she offered to let me off. I felt horribly mean, but the temptation was too great. I knew you would 1'- here I wanted to meet you again; I succumbed "1 ought to feel very flattered," said Olive, lightly, trying to control a blush. But I am sorry about your mother; it was, indeed, nice of her to give you up." "Yes, I feel sure you would like my mother. You mint meet her some day. I have told her all about you, and how we ran across each other at Mrs. Heming's." "Is Billy better ? Have you seen him again?" "Yes, Billy is getting well. I feel I owe him a debt of gratitude; it was all through his accident, poor little chap, that 1 made your acquaintance." The late arrival of Captain Merritt made a general move downstairs, where Olive again found herself next to Evelyn Brotherton. Evidently she was to be pairod off with him for the evening. The hours ahead should prove bright ones certainly Meanwhile, Arabella waited alonejjfor Edward. After Olive left, the house seemed strangely silent, and a sensation of depression crept over Mrs. Desmond. She saw clearly now the contrast between this present life, with Olive at her side, and the past solitary, childless years. Everything was clianged, she had found an in'erest, she had found love. Her heart warmed with gratitude towards Edward, for having brought Olive to her. She decided to try and cheer Edward on bis return, to take a pattern from Olive, to be brijjht, lively, entertaining. (involuntarily she forced her lips to smile as alti. heard him mounting the stairs, though hit ootiv.ng brought her no pleasure. He entered the room with a nervous exproo- NiOn no word of greeting fell from his lips. He just. flung himself down before the fire, as if Arabella were a statue. "I thought you were coming home early," she said. "Are you better ? "I've no time to think of my health," he grunted, in reply. "Where's Olive?" "Oh, my dear, she had such a charming in- vitation I was obliged to let her go. The Heath- cotes are taking a party of twenty to the theatre, and she is dining at their house first. I feel she is so much alone with me, that it will do her good to mix with young people. "You really need not consider the girl she is well paid for being here, and finds herself in a most comfortable berth. But I am very glad she went-it just suits my book to-night, for I want a long, serious talk with you. Had she been here, I should have' asked her to retire early but it's better she should be out of the house while we discuss future plans." "What a fortunate thing the Heathcotes asked her! Now we can have a cosy evening to ourselves," said Arabella, with forced gaiety. "I am longing to hear all you have, to teH me. Only this afternoon I have been quite fretting about what is to become of Olive after Dudley's release it will give me the greatest pleasure to know. I can't tell you, Edward, how fond I have grown ot' that girl; she is quite like a daughter to me. I don't know how I could bear to part with her. Strange, isn't it, after so short an acquaintrance ? You should see her in the new white dress she wore to-night—she looked lovely t I shall not be surprised if she marries exceedingly well." "Good gracious, Arabella he cried, spring- ing to his feet. "What, in Heaven's name, are you thinking of? Fond of the girl Couldn't bear to part with her! Shouldn't be surprised, if she married well! Are you mad, or did my ears deceive me ? Don't you know she came here to serve my purpose ? He walked to and fio, glaring at Arabella. "To serve your purpose, yes, but in what way? For Heaven's sake, speak, Edward! Why do you look at mo in that terrible—terrible manner ? Wliat are your thoughts ? Oh, I'm frightened!" Silence, woman! he hissed, catching her by the wrist, and letting his angry fingers mark her skin. "No hysterics now, if you please I This is the moment for strength and resolution. Dudley is worse, they are letting him out sooner we have not a moment to loss t (To be continued.)

NEURALGIC PAINS. 25, Hendre-Cafan ROAD, Peny-Graig, Dee. 26th, 1890.. DEAR Sir,—I feel very thankful that such < « precious remedy as your Quinine Bitters has been discovered. Three years ago my little boy, who is now almost nine years of age, suffered greatly with his teeth, and often cried and screamed suddenly by night and day from the acute pain he suffered in the nerves. We tried various prescriptions, but all in vain, and even the doctor could give him no lasting relief. At last, one of our neighbours told us that the cause of his suffer- ing so acutely was Weakness, and advised us to try Gwtlym Evanul Bitters to strengthen him. We did so, and before be had com- pleted the second bottle a great change for -he better was evident, and by continuing its we he rapidly improved, and soon got rid of the excruciating pain which caused him such great suffering. I heartily recommend parents to try it in cases of ailments of their children, especially in cases of Weakness. Yours sincerely, WM. D. LEWISL
