Toothsome Fruit Salads.

1t is quite fashionable Of late TO
make fruit salads for breakfast and
luncheon parties No fruit is more
commonly used for this purpose than
the shaddock, which is stripped of its
skin and of the thin epidermis cover
ing the lobes and is served with sugar,
or more frequently au naturel, before
breakfast and at the game course at
dinners. Cantaloupe melons or North
ern muskmelons are used in this way
frequently with salt and pepper only
for breakfast. and possibly more fire.
quently than any other fruit. To-
matoes are served either ia n simple
French dressing or with Mayounaise.
A melange Of fruit is very acceptable
on the luncheon table. Cut up oranges
in circles, removing the skin and
seeds; slice red bananas, and tear of
pineapples in bits after peeling and
adding sugar place the fruit in layers,
and let it stand on the ice till very
cold. An orange glace is very de-
licious and a very ornamental luncheon
dish. Pile the orange lobes ia hand
some preserve dish when the glace is
firm. and decorate with orange leaves
or any thies. nstrods !s.lve5. N. \.

CHAPTER ".
REJECTED AGAIN.

"Whata Are you blue!' Boughton
asked, convinced now that the glisten was
not due to the freight. ''On Christmas
Eve, too? That will not do the least in the
world. What's wrong!"
She tossed herself back into the open
arms of the big chair with q petulant gest-
ure.
Every thing'1 she "EgcrB thingn'
BOughton sat a moment gazing steadily
into the fire.
Judith he said, at last, cant you tell
me, dears Knight help you, YOU lSnow'
'sYou couldn'ti you couldn'tu she said,
still vehemently knitting her chestnut
brows, which in that position were absurdly
like her fathers. Nobody can. | can't

II is impossible to express the rebellion
condensed into that one "Oh dearr The
room seemed to reverberate with 1t,
Boughton could think of absolutely moth
ing to say just then, so he edged alon4to-
ward her over the deerskin rug. until he
could rest his arm on the arm of her chair,
"Tell me, y he urged. 'Do, Judith. One
can never tell. Perhaps | may be the very
one to help you
But she SAID mo" very CURLY, and
stared over his head into the fire.
Presently, however, she hurst forth
again:
sWas there ever such a wild place as the
University of Virginia. do you Think" she
cried.
AT that, "Ohr' said Philt himself Dick
had of course been getting into trouble, aud
had cast his burden upon his sisters pIucky
little shoulders, after his usual brave
fashion.
81 don't know much about it, You know"
he made answer "What has Dick been
telling youi'
She looked at him sharply.
"Why do you think Dick has been telling
me any thingln she asked. IN rather care

How else should you known Boughton
said. easily. "But of course don't tell me

Suddenly she leaned forward, setting one
hand back down in the other rs they rested
on her knees. HerneczIace swung forward
from her bending throat, and the freight
cast dainty, circular shadows fromits beads
upon the snowy white Of her neck.
''Yes. l viii tell you, she said, suddenly
ssDick is in debt--the old, old story to sis
ters-for how much do you supposel"
II don't know said BOughton, stupldly.
He was not thinking in the least OF Dick
just then. He was wondering how many OF

on her white breast, ana whether he could
| count them If he tried.

The Colonel sxore extensively when he
heard about it all, and called Priddie some
very ugly names, which gave the.soul OF
Boughton infinite comfort. He vowed, more
over, that he would not rest in his four-pOst
bed until that bull was made into beef.
"And CAD if wouldn't like to make that
d fool eat every square inch of himr' he
ended, thunderously, listing the table until
the spoons and glasses gave tongue shrilly.
Boughton did not see Judith alone after
that for more than week. 1t was within
ten days of Christmas, and she was end
lessly occupied about something or other.
But she found time however, to give him
plenty of smiles and gay words in passing.
And he had sent to New York for some
thing which he knew that she very much
wanted, so that altogether, though tanta-
lizing, it was not very unpleasant. Philip,
moreover, was rather anxious to find out
whether he was only pretty deeply smitten,
or very much in love, and he thus found
time to discuss that momentous question
with his inner man-that individual who IS
always such a loose or tight fit for his outer
representative
OF course the Colonel had insisted upon
his remaining until Christmas; and he was
TO hang up his stocking, of course-hal hal
And there should be some young folks,
and bonfres, and what not. Also, there
were some sleighs sent up from Richmond,
and the place was literally resonant with
the voices of cxpectant nigs, big and little.
On Christmas Eve, however, Boughton
managed to find her alone, although Dick
had arrived, and she seemed buster than
ever
He was going along the corridor to his

through the half open doorof a little paneled
room, which she called her Tea Caddy."
She was standing on the gray deer skin rug
before the fire, in the cream-white frock he
liked and wearing the identical blue beads
and bow which he remembered so well. Her
feet were sunk out of sight in the thick fur,
but he fancied that she sported the bronze
shoes
There was a glisten in her eyes which
Boughton did not think was all freight,
and she clnked the beads of her necklace
hurriedly together.
"Do let me come i'm he sad, pushing the
door further open.
She looked up vaguely, as though from
dream, and said: Certainly" SO in he
went, shutting the door behind him. 1t was
pretty room, with much blue chntz on
windows and furniture, and many hunting
traps about. There were two old chairs on
either side Of the fireplace, which could
have held six Judiths apiece, and in one of
these she now placed herself, still keeping
her hand on the beads at her throat.
Boughton sat down on the rug at her feet,
Turk fashion, and took his crossed ankles
into capable grasp.
II never saw half such pretty room,
he remarked, looking about him. "lt's you,
Judith all over again.

Judith did not see Phil again until three
years afterward, when she was twenty one,
and the civil war had broken out in all its
horror. He was Colonel on General IS
staff, and happened to be encamped near
Charlottesville, and Colonel Page asked
himself and the General to dinner The
latter declined for some reason or other,
but, much to Judiths amazement. Boughton
came.
She watched him dismount from his
horse, looking through her closed window
blinds, and her heart emulated the action OF
poor Trumpeter's diaphragm on the memoir
able occasion three years ago. She saw
that he had broadeped great deal and was
browner-very much browner-in fact,
quite dingy as to complexion, and that his
undress uniform was abominably shabby.
Then she turned slowly away and went
down stairs. She had thought a good deal
over her toilet. laying out the four gowns
in her possession on her narrow bed.
Among them was the creamy one with the
little blue bow at the bodice. She was as
slender as ever, and could have worn it
very well, but she tossed it aside decidedly.
She finally clad herself in gray serge.

tucker of old lace, which, alacs, had been
''done up' with bluiDg, but there were no
bows, nor beads, nor bronze shoes this
time AS for herself, she looked precisely
the same as she had done three years ago,
save that there was rarely any red now
adays in the brown of her eyes.
She went down slowly, coming to halt
on each shallow stair of the oak staircase.
She was not at all sure of her reception.
Would he stare grimly, and be very icy to
her3 Or would he merely ignore hers Or
would he indulge in covert sarcasms, that

She made up her mind at last, however,
and turning the knob of the drawing room
door, entered abruptly and noiselessly.

leathern halfway house, with his equity foot

There is a rage both here and abroad for

for occasions for ceremony, for bridal
wear, for church, visiting, five o'clock teas
and evening fetes. There are many new
very lovely sheer woolens for summer wear.
and among them are Venetian cashmeres
as soft as velvet and as fine and delicate
as India vailing. These are bordered with
devices in silk embroidery in old rose.
