Julian Ralph is a self-made stem ographer.
That is. he has worked Ralph's great meth

out several joints of this even, if necessary,

writes up great job like a page or two of
New York paper, which he frequently does
when feeling we'll. Mr.. Ralph does not
make memoranda on his cuff. Young re-

CHAPTER XXXII.


Ten o'clock had struck before TOinette
was missed from Highlands. On return
ing from his canter over the hills, Philip
RaynOr had spent the evening pacing up
and down the terrace, putting mOOdlly at
his cigar.
The promise to accept the impOstor as
his wife was costing him dear.
Every instinct Of his nature prompted
him to shrink from the beautiful siren.
He could not have told what he missed,
what was lacking, but the warning voice
Of his heart kept assuring him she was

such evidence" he muttered, at last.

his forehead. -TOinette Is not so inIatu-

eventually recoil upon herself; and

my doubts, and j must keep that pledge. ?

Fighting Women.

In warlike times, when battle was
the business of life, and victory over q
foe the highest honor that could be
had, when home in the true sense there
was none, and when castles were less
houses for pleasant living. than strong
holds to- shelter raiders and resist as
sault, women were as heroic as their
age. If they were not as accurate IN
their aim as the archers, of whom it
was said every English bowman "bore
under his gird1e. twenty-four Scots,
they knew how to. man the Tamparts
and defend the bridges as well as their
lords themselves. Womanliness in the
bower, dignity In the hall, courage in
the castle that was the whole duty Of
those noble women of rude but manly
age, and to their example, their infU-
ence, and their shaping power as
mothers England owes much of her
greatness and half of her strength.
Letting BOadicea pass as an example
Of the feminine fighting blood, we find
In Dame NichOla de CamviIle an early
specimen of the WarIike political
woman. She took the royal side In the
famous war with the barOns, and held
Lincoln Castle against Gilbert de
Gaunt, first for King John and after
ward for Henry III, till the battle
called Lincoln Fair broke her power.
The beautiful Countess of Salisbury,
she who was so ardently beloved by the
third Edward, was another instance Of
feminine daring, IN her case coupled
with the loveliest and most gracious
sweetness. Black Agnes was again
heroine, of the virago type, and Queen
Philippe, Queen Margaret and others
Of the same kind honOred their adopted
nationality by their courage and devo-
ton. Meaner women were as brave.
In slirmish at Naworth 1570)
Leonard Dacres had In his army many
desperate women, who there gave the
adventure of their Hives and fought
right stoutly7 And at the end of the
last century and the beginning of this
about half a dozen women on the whole
enlisted as privates in the army and
pulled their pound" as gallantly as
the men. Miss Jennie Cameron, Scotch
and JacObite, was another example OF
the fighting women with whom nature
had stumbled and spoiled the original
design.

The State Board of Trade.

The Portland Board of Trade Journal says
+ the plan OF forming State Board of Trade
for Maine has been received with such gem
eral favor that it now seems probable that a
meeting for such an organization will he
held at Portland on or about the 10th of
September next.
BY that date, it is altogether likely that
there Will be no less that twenty-five Boards
OF Trade to be represented in the convention
and we would suggest that each Board in
the State, appoint say five delegates from its
best representative men as soon as possible,
and forward their names to the Secretary of
the Board of Trade of Portland. This will
enable us to communicate directly with men,
bers who are to compose the convention and
advise as to the final arrangements and
plans of organization.
The number of delegates to this conven-
ton win have nothing to do with future rep
resentaton to the State Board, as after or
ganlzation the delegations will be fixed ac-
cordlng to membership.
