black hatred welled up in the Professor's heart, and for a
moment he felt menlerous. "Why should he flaunt
himself before ma no gaily, who is the only tor to hopes
I dare not dream of?" So the Professor thought darkly
as he sat and only half heard the gay talk of his com-
panion.
"Butt you are out of sorts," Reid Harmer. "Yon look

John laughed, and poured out a glass of wine.
"Ti) the fountain of month," he said lightly. But he
looked at the Professor with kindly eyes that smote his
evil thoughts anew. There was a whisper in Villani',
mind that seemed almost like a whisper at his coy;
" Wt. 111.1 it profit me if the man were deal?" But through
all the evil of his thoughts, there was in his tninti an

"Come, come ..' said Harmer again, with • friendly

They went through tha wet and gleaming streeta to-
gether arm-in-arm. The Professor's mind was quite dim
until he found himself in the lecture theatre. Harmer
sat just in front of him. The place was crowded, and it
WM already a minute or two beyond the time. He
plunged into the midst of his subject, and lost himself
and his own cares in it, as he was able to do. He waa
describing an operation performed upon a frog; and
opened with a defence of vivisection from the charge of
inhumanity. He dealt with the question animatedly and
otirically, and drew forth frequent laughter and applause.
These signs were almost unknown at the deliverance of
other professors in the college, but were frequent at
Villam s.
Having eet aside the opening question, he took up the
actual matter of his lecture. The main threads of it were
these. It was a vulear belief, as his hearers knew, that a
separation of the tissues of the brain was fatal. These
severances &Benxi the manifestations of life and destroyed

eliminated. Thus—sever the brain from the vertebral

The Professor remarked that John Harmer listened
with an air of intense interest to this discourse. Harmer
commented on it, when they had left the theatre, and
asked many questions concerning it. Villani answered
them all indifferently.
"Could that experiment be performed on a man r
asked Harmer suddenly.
They were that a moment underneath the gas-lamp at
the gate of the Inn. The Professor turned upon his com-
panion with& gesture which brought them both too stand-
still.
"Yes," he answered; and they walked up the Inn side
by. side.
' I suppose the operation would be much more difficult ? '
John asked • moment later.
" A man's brain is more difficult of approach than a
frog's," the Protestor answered. A Feat horror of him-
self wee settling down upon him. Awful voices
whispered to him and tempted him. He knew nothing
but this horror until he found himself in Harmer's room,
seated at the fireside.
" It seema to open up," John was saying, "quite a new
sphere of possible crime. (lastly notion, isn't it? Would
it be possible to do it in such • way as to leave a man such
a noindlese machine as you described, and yet escape
detection!"
"Yes,' said the Professor in answer. "By the use of
• peculiar instrument"
It sounded to him as though some other spoke the words,
and he stood and listened.
"Is there such an instrument I" Harmer asked again.
" I have an instrument," so the Professor seemed to
hear his own voice say, whilst he stood by and listened.

with noises of the pea, and throbbed with alternate beats
of darkness and red light.

The surging tide of horror took to itself a hundred

?HZ BEI SHOW.
A separate tent was set apart for the be. and honey
show, which was • very Interesting affair.
There was an excellent show of honey. the Oases which
lined the large tent being laden with an extensive and
varied assortment of super,; some of these came from
• considerable distsnce, one of the principal exhibitor,-
Mr. William Martin-living at High Wycombe, Bucking-
hamshire. Mr Martin is • working man, who devoted his
leisure hours to the study and management of bees with
such success that he could stock • tolerably large show-
case with silver and hymn medals, while the money
prizes he wins annually form no unimportant part of his
limited income. Cottager though he is, he can hold his
own with moat of the wealthy amateurs, and generally
stands well on the prize list at the national shown. Rio
exhibits made a total of shout two hundred-weisht, and
the quality could not easily be surpassed. Next in
position, an an exhibitor of honey. stood Mr T Stick.

Donman, of Troytown. The cottager' of the country did
not come out strongly, but every exhibition of the kind
will probebly add largely to the number of local bee-

CHAPTER TV.

After this, strange blanks began to appear in the Pro- .
fessor's life, go that he seemed rather to leap from stage to
stage of existence than to live through consecutive days.
He knew how dreadfully his memory failed him, and was
fully persauded within himself that he was med.
The first of these gaps in memery occerred between the
commission of his crime and the awaking of his victim.
Between those two events he was conscious of absolutely
nothing but one tremendous outburst of remorse and
horror. After those raging moments came a cloud which
hid everything.
lie was standing at the side of his victim's chair, with
his hand upon the shoulder of the only man with whom
he had ever exchanged even the faintest promises of
friendship. He thought, with a curious kind of helpless
self-pity, that he might have grown to love this man, and
to be more than reconciled to his own sorrows. Perhaps
remorse had for the moment worn itself out. It is cer-
tain that for the time his only feeling was one of altogether
hopeless longing. His hand was on the shoulder of that
cunninely-arranged machine which had been John Har-
mer, and he was kneeling beside the chair in which the
helpless figure sat So long as the Automaton's eves were
closed, the face revealed no change. But when, in
obedience to the touch of the Professor's band, the eye-
lids raised themselves and the eyes looked out upon him,
their absolote vacuity struck him with an almost unbear-
able dread. No eyes of fate ever looked such awful
accusation as those vomit soil unrecognising orbs.
The Professor mastered his terror, and proceeded to ex-
amine into the effects of the operation. The Automaton
sat in the exact attitude in which it ittel been smutted from
sleep. Villani teolt one of the fingers of the left hand,
and pinched it slightly. The right hand came across to
brush away the cause ef pain. This action aroused the
figure, which, cramped by remaining the whole night in
one posture in its opiate sleep, sat up, and yawned, and
stretched itself, and then slid back and settled itself into
a comfortable position. The Professor passed bin hand
rapidly before the vacant eyes. The eyelids flickered.
Sight remained unimpaired.
Villani crossed the room and stood at some distance from
the arm-chair. He tried once are twice to speak, but his
tongue refused to shape the word he refused to utter. At
last the rower of speech returned, and he called the
Automaton by what had been its name. The head turned,
and the eyes looked in the direction of the sound—with
absolute vacanev. and with no comprehension of its mean-
ing. A curiosity which he felt to be more dreadful than
the feeling which had led him to the commission of the
crime began to animate the Professor. He felt as though,
in a dream, he were compelled to carry out a scientific
inquiry into the results of his own unspeakable wicked-
nese. The whole fearful business was resolving itself
against his will into an experiment
And at last he won it—in its outward form. The
happiness of it, and the good of it, and the sweet peace
of it, were just as far away as heaven front hell. Bet
Mary Malden, after a year and a half of waiting, had
promised to he his wife. The tender care with which he
watched and tended the soulless bsnly of her lover touched
her nearly. Vlllani's profound unhappiness, which be
persuaded her had sprung from his own hopeless love,
touched her also. Si, though he knew her heart was un-
weaned from its old allegiance, and though he knew that
she had promised mainly that she 'nicht help him to nurse
the victim of his infamy, he accepted the promise, and
they were to be married.
There was • beery and bloated captain resident in the
Inn, who had left the army, as the rumour ran, under
disreputable auspices. John Harmer hat known him
slightly, and had been courteous to hint, in the native
kindness of his heart, as few men were. It had never
Seen a matter of surprise that the bloated and beery
captain should inquire frequently—as he did—about liar'
titer's state of health, and ask what hope there was of his
recovery. It was not a matter of surprise, when, in
answer to Mr. Malden's entreaties, the Professor had
brought John Harmer to the old gentleman's house at
Putney, that the captain should have introduced himself
there, and should call twice or thrice a week to pursue his
friendly inquiries. The projected marriage was near at
hand, when, after one of those strange lenses in memory
which had now grown so frequent, the Professor found
himself alone with John Ilanner's automatic body and the
captain, lie found himself thinking that he had noticed
, in the cashiered warrior's demeanours certain unwarranted
insolence which called for a cheek of come kind, when the
man came across the room and laid an insolent hand upon
, his shoulder.

But the gist of what the captain had to say was this.
That on a certain night—a year and a half ago—he was
sitting in his chambers with the windows open. It was a
queer time of the year for that sort of thing, but the
captain had not been quite sober When he came home, and
hail only Fist awakened from a drunken sleep. The
%iambi., opposite were those of Professor Villani, and one
iif them was open also. They were dark until the Pro-
fessor entered the room and struck a light. Then the
captain, newly awakened from his drunken sleep, saw the
Professor pour the contents of a little phial in a decanter
and saw him examine the decanter rorionsly afterwards.
He had his suspicions at the time, and thought of cards,
when he saw the Professor put out the gas, and heard
shortly afterwards excited voices from Harmer's rooms.
When he heard of Harmer's imbecility, he put two and
two together, so he said, and summed them up against
the Professor. He had puzzled his herd about the matter
ever since, but to no avail, until yesterday, when he found
a copy of an old newspaper which related the substance
of Villani's lecture before a scientific institute two years
ago, in which the phenomena of the vivisected frog were
dealt with. He hail brought into his calculations then the
Professor's approaching marriage, and was of opinion that
he held a clue that, if he followed it, would lead to the
exp imie of a tremendous crime. And now, he wished
particularly to know what Villani would give him to
bury his surmise quietly and go about his business.
• Nothing," sail Villani
But as he turned to say it, he saw, standing at the door
a bowed figure, and knew that the game on which he had
staked his soul was played out and was lost. In another
moment the bowed figure WWI erect and before him, and
in another was weeping on John Ilarmer's neck with
passionate sobs that shook it from head to foot.
He felt dead and careless. "This," he thought, "most
be the prelude to annihilation." The weight of his despair
pressed down upon him—crushing him, even with 'physi-
cal sense of its burden, until the pain of its weight
became too much for him, and he struggled to ri lease him-
self. A cloud fell upon him, and he could see nothing ex-
cept one awful step which came nearer and nearer at dread-
ful intervals, each of which seemed like a hundred years.
A hand was laid upon his shoulder, and as it touched him
the burden fell away, the cloud dispersed, and he saw
beside him the old friendly face, uncouched, unchanged.
The l'rofessor gave one wild cry :
" A dream ! A dream ! Thank God, a dream I "
Mary Malden and John !termer ran about the Professor's
room to find remedies for him, and brought him back to
consciousness. The little Italian cried with joy when he
returned to himself, and actually knelt to kiss John Har-
mer's hands, and fawned upon him like an affectionate
dog. They were astounded at all this until he said with
tears:
"I had dreamt that! had hated you, and had murdered
you. I lived for years in that dream. It was so horribly
real that I never doubted it. I have suffered eternities
of remorse and horror. But it was taise, my friend; it
was false—all—all ! I have never bated you, but have
loved you always—always, since the day on the boat."
And what with his weakness, and his joy, and the
enormous revulsion of emotion, he grew hysterical, and
had to be nursed for an hour or two.
He never said anything more about his dream and
they, seeing how it pained him, forebore to make allusion
to it But it wrought a vast change in him, and I do not
think that any best man ever officiated at a wedding with a
cleaner heart than Ottavio Villani at the ceremony which
crowned John Harmet's hopes.

Mr. William Pound was walking on the sands on
Wednesday morning, accompanied be his wife, in the
parish nf Thurlstone, Devonshire. Suddenly, without
any warning, or previons disagreement, he left his wife's
:side, walked steadily into the sea until he was out of his
depth, and then threw up his arms and sang. No house
or help was near, and the terrified woman, struck
motionless with amazement, could do nothing but watch
her husband drown, and then go and give an alarm. He
was about fifty years of age, and his widow is left with a
family of ten children. The body of the deceased was
recovered an hour after the sad event. _
