Caroline remarked, resting her chin on her
hand, and speaking in a mood Of doleful con-
hdence. It had been a wet evening, and the
meeting had been small, moist, and not san

you" Egerton replied. "Try a little of this
pheasant, dear. Nol Well, / will. 1 was
going to say l should not be disheartened
about the cause. As you said tonight, dear,
new truths always have to work their way.
Look at my theory about red mullet. l have
been at it for twenty years, and yet even to
this day that delicious fish is laid on your
plate in most houses in Kettlewell Just as if it
was a package. But that truth will work is
way, too; and when l am no more"-EgertoA
said this with a tremor in his voice, and he
laid down his knife and fork to deal with GER
tain symptoms Of moisture in his left eve
when l am no more, red mullet will be
cooked in my way all over educated Europe"
For poor Egerton remained constant to his
great theory about red mullet and firmly
persuaded that a reform in that direction
would help on the regeneration of mankind,
and in this gentle conviction our amiable
milksop will live and die.
We bid farewell to Sibyl, to Caroline, to
Egerton. Let the men learn what lesson
from Egerton they can or will. l write for
the women. And l wish them to observ,
that Caroline, as well as Sibyl, sank into a
social infection, lost all power of attraction
as years went on; and in both cases l be-
lieve the loss arose from simple mismanage-
ment. This story las every rejecting reader
saw long ago has as many morals as a
hedgehog has prickles. But here is one par
ticular moral spear which l would infix in
the minds of my feminine students:
Either Sibyl or Caroline, according to the
gifts of person and of mind, would have out
shone Sophia from first to last had they
known the secreto of charming as she knew it.

reader, that Sophia, with all her charms, was
only mortal woman. after all, and would let
fly an arrow at a rival as swiftly as any Of
her sex. But it mattered nothing to Mrs.
Lanigan, who was three times recalled. And
it nattered nothing to Sophia, who only
wanted to punish her husband, and never
loved him more tenderly than that night,

Then, with II look behind her at him, and a

Alone and merry are we;
For Love is the game, and l am the toy;

"His face is ~crosspatch. His step is

No, do what she will, she cannot make him

lights in her face pass off. She begins to give

CHAPTER w.
THE LAsT AND LEAST CHAPTER OF THE
NOVEL.

NOVEL.
l praise my heroine no more-not a line,
not a word Two little anecdotes l tell Of
her, and with these | leave her to your iudg.
ment, my fair readers. The first anecdote,
you will perceive, is in the old style, and you
will yawn over it. The second is more in our
modern habit.
Percival Brent was a quiet undemonstra,
tive man of science, who never shocked my.
body by declaring himself against religion.
or the "old notions" But among his particu.
lar friends, it was well known that he freely
accepted the most advanced and las they are
at present considered) the most disintegrat.
ing scientific views. C"Now what is this lead.
ing up to 7" you, my May-blossom student,
will ask: p~atinece, little one; look below and
see how near the end we are.l One of hi;
friends who knew his views, and could speak
to him freely, said one day interrogatively:
ut is a matter of establishment to me.
Brent, that you, with your opinions, still keen
up your religious practices so regularly ~
Let me tell you thO reason" Brent
answered.
II am married to a wife whom l love, and
admire even more than | lave her. For true
sweetness of character. liveliness, sense, and
virtue all round, ! never met her equal. l
have often asked myself, What is the secret
of her characterF and / always come to the
same conclusion-that if her religious faith
were deducted from her she could not be
what she is, but must become a less agreeable
and not so good a woman. She has kept me
from taking the leap which reason has often
bid me take. l cannot renounce a religion
which | feel makes her what she is"
A tedious anecdote, reader, however short
Now for number two, which is quite another
pattern.
To K%ettlewell, not so many years ago,
came a man aged forty-three. He was
famed as a ladies' man, and Something in
him must have pleased women, for his success
with a certain set was quite undoubted, Per.
haps his consummate impudence won their
hearts. Be that as it may, he was among
them an object of no little curiosity. the
more because he was wealthy and presump.
tive heir to a title. This man, satisfied with
himself and confident of his power over
women, met Mrs. Sophia Brent two or three
times. Whether he fancied her TO be maid
or widow-or whether, knowing her 70 be
married, he meant to enshrtle hor in a PA
tonic affection / cannot tell Thi, | can tell.
This, reader, did actually happen.
That this man of the World, aged forty.
three, fell IN loUe with Mrs. Sophia Brent,
aged tfty-three, and positively made a
downright fool of himself.
Ladies, | am your most obedient humhla
servant.
