the pleasant evenings they used to have
at "The Nest" s'Do You know. i
I fancy Tor Lucy"
George grew hr..Sress @.s.--s--,s and
bent his eyes resolutely on the table.
"It would have been capital thing
for you; and l believe she liked you,
for she seemed altogether out Of sorts
when she got your letter. In fact,
George, you might have done much
worse than have married Lucy Arm
strong"
Still silence and steady contemplation
Of bis glass, on the part Of George.
"And for that matter, you might do
worse than marry her still"
George looked up with sudden angry
flash, then he grew quite white. Mark
was not chatting in the least, he felt
that still he could not take it all in at
once.
q believe it's entirely on your
account she has remained single" Mark
continued, with good-natured garrulity,
. in spite of all her aunt's efforts to get
her well married"
"Did you say Mrs. Beauclere was
staying at Brighton2" George presently
asked in very meek voice because
thought of running down there for a
few days Will you come, Mark p
6 No, thank you," with dron shrug.
" Nv wife and Lucy are staying at the
Royal; give them my love, and tell
them they need not hurry back, as I'm
all right"

to last / thought it was you Mark
wanted to marry and when he told me
tLat evening, that ha-h Lad nranosed---a=.dl

Hester never once entered my head"
Lucy's reply was little unintelli-
Pible, but after time they managed to
each other. Miss Arm
strong could not long resist lover who
had been faithful to her for five years,
even when he believed her lost to him
forever and George resolved to marry
her out Of hand, so that there should be
no more misunderstanding Some
times Mark Beauclerc chaffs them both
a little about Georges mistake but he
always boldly asserts that the great
mistake was Marks after all.

| impressive silence, she found herself
wondering why George did not come.
Later on, rs she sat at the piano in the
| twilight, and played over her favorite
songs, singing snatches of them, wan
dering aimlessly from "Auld Lang
| Syne" to the Lass of Richmond Hill."
and then to " Home, Sweet Home" she
little thought who was listening to her
on the other side of the lilac tree that
| shaded the drawing room window.
There, in safe obscurity, George Leslie
listened, till he heard the piano closed
with the just the suspicion of a bang,
and saw Lucy's slight white-robed figure
cross the room and approach tho open
window, then he stole away noiselessly
with something between a sob and a
sigh. There was even a suspicious and
humiliating moisture in the poor fel-
lows eyes as he hurried across the
fields in the direction Of the railway
station.
She's treated me very badly-but
for all that hope she may be happy
Heaven bless her" he said, rs he
caught a glimpse of "The Nest" as the
train shrieked past.
Then he shrank back into his corner,
and gave himself ~p to the bitterest
reflection. He found it difficult to real
ize that he was rejected /; yet Beauclere
had told him distinctly that he had
proposed to Miss Armstrong that after
noon, and had been accepted. There

Westwater; and he was going to ask his
uncle, of the firm of Leslie and Long
hampton, to send him on confidential
mission to the extreme end of the earth,
where they were supposed to do
business. George could not be philoso
phlcal enough to look at happiness
through another mans eye" so he
determined to get completely out OF the
way of Mark Beauclere and he could
not even summon up courage to con
graulate Lucy, or say good-by ; but he
wrote her a nice little letter. in which a
good deal of real feeling was hidden |
under some stiff formal phrases, and |
through it all peeped very sore,
bruised, afronted, but still faithful love.
Lucy laughed at it first, and then
cried over it, then wiped her eyes, and .
wrote an explanatory and afieotionate
reply; but, alas George was gone on
the confidential mission. His letter .
said that he was on the eve of starting
for China, and bore the SOUTHAMPTON T
post-mark. He said he might be absent
for years, or for ever To poor Lucy,
in the first dismay of her discovery that .
George was really gone, it seemd the /
same thing.

FOR THE FAIR Sen.
4 strange Custom.

SiFHHEe tu5tOn.
The respectable women OF Thibet
always appear IN public with their faces
painted black, SO as to disguise their
charms and thus prevent frail men from
the perils of too great admiration. Be
fore going out OF doors they invariably
rub their faces over with black gluten
GUS varnish, something like currant
Jelly IN appearances The object being
to render themselves rs unattractive as
possible, they daub this composition
over every feature, so as to render their
faces as unlike those of human beings
as possible. NJ Hue in his travels in
the country ascertained that the
singular custom had it's origin in the
decree of Lama king, some ONE two hun; n,
man of austere habits, was desirous n
checking the license which prevailed
among the people, and which had even
spread to the priests of the Buddhist
monasteries to such an extent as to
relax their discipline, issued an edict
that no woman should appear in public
otherwise than with her face daubed in
the manner described. Severe temporal
and spiritual penalties enforced the de-
cree among them, the terrible wrath of
Buddha. Tradition says that women
were perfectly resigned and obedient,
and that far from the edict giving rise
to petticoat rebellion. the practice was
cheerfully adopted and has been faith
fully observed down to our own time.
Now, it is considered point of relig-
ious creed and evidence of spirit of
devotion, the women who daub their
faces the most being the most religious.
1t is only in the large towns that
women are seen in the streets with un-
4 painted faces.
