CHAPTER VII.

Oriental tradition asserts that Zohara,
the queen Of love, was also the mother of
mischief Beautiful, enticing, she wrought
ruin whithersoever sho went To very this
day her victims are suspended by their
feet, head downwards, between heaven
and earth and the mountain-tops re-echo
with their cries OF pain.
Whether there DO truth OF not In this an
Client legend, certain 1t Is that beauty Is a
dangerous weapon when welded by q
woman who feels that all the world Is
against her. Rhoda Hamerton, widow Of
the late Augustus Barr, attorney and coun-
sellor at law. had long had grudgs
against society. The cause OF this bitter
ness had had Its birth In the very first
months OF her sojourn In the conservative
cid New England city In which her mother
and herself had taken up their abode some
ten years before the opening Of this narra-
tive.
Whence they came, why they came no
one knew. Mrs. Hamerton was stately.
handsome old lady who made no acquain-
tances, and who seemed to be fairly we'll
provided with the treasures OF this wicked
wvg3d. Her daughter was at that time Q
delicate, slender girl. whose face gave
promise of acquiring that striking beauty
we know that 1t finally attained.
Purchasing an historic house near the
centre OF the town, Mrs. Hamerton settled
down to quiet life and placed her daugh-
ter at school. Then 1t was that Rhoda
Hamerton, by nature affeetionate. contid-
ing, cheerful, first tasted the poison that
changed her whole being and warped her
virgin soul.

Cemmcncement day had come and gons.
Once again the college had sent forth int
the world its annual quota Of half-educated
youths to repair, as best they could, the
mental ravnges incurred during the lase
feur years. Go forth" the Spirit Of kA3
Times had said, " We Bachelors Of Arts. and
learn the lessons OF the busy throng,. Go
forth from the shady groves Of Academic
and read In the heart OF man that which
your books have never taught. Go forth
and measure your strength In the battle OF
life, and fight the fight as best you may.
The world and all Its treasures lie before
you. Did you stand high among tho
scholars Of your classs Beware OF him up
on whose dullness you have cast theglance
Of scorn. New conditions surround you
all, new foes there are to fight new roads
to tread. And perhaps as the years glide
by the last shah be first and the first last
for the standards OF the world are just"

Ian Otis, as he reclined on window seat
and watched the smoke from his pipe as

They said his left lung was all gone and
that he could not possibly live. Hearing
OF DR.. Jordan We sent for him. He came
up and pronounced it a bad case, but said
he thought he could pull him through all

EASTERN MARKETS.

INV YORK, April 2s.-The stock muket
today displayed marked improvement, and
while no material advances were scored in the

uniform improvement in values went great

The market on farm produce has been fairly
active during the week wheatis away up, but
receipts are very light, and jobbers find II diff
hcuit to secure enough for chicken feed. Beef
cattle continue very scarce and tending upward,
having advanced 4 ceat during the week. Other
1--we stock are no more plentiful than cattle.
The situation in the hop market Is stili I'M
changed. Eastern brewers report q marked i'm
provement in the sale of beer, which Lends some
encouragement to the hop men Potatoes keep
gradually declining now, rs the supply of CAif-
fornia new stock increases and the quality i'm.
proves. Dairy butter has dropped tribe. and
i've chickens are becoming hrf,e more plenti-
fui and the price has gone down 30 cents.
THE JoBBIS6 TRADE.
Jcbbing prices have ductuated but little dur
ing the week. Sugars have declined 4 cent;
potatoes have dropped about 81 per ton: and
nour has taken another advance No change
has 80 lar been made IN the jobbing price of other
mill stud. but As the mills have advanced the
whols sale prices all around, . corresponding adj
vance in the sobbing prices may soon be ex.
ported.
Quotations on lumber have been reduced to
the old figure, the lumDermen's combine having
faslen through. The local coal trade is reported
good, but the San Francisco market has been
denoralized some time and shows no sign OF i'm.
proving
