CHAPTER III.

Very soon another responsibility was
added to little Priscilla's burdens. Her
cousin Dick-the worldly one with the
yellow boots came home after his
annual holiday, which, as he was the
Junior clerk in large bank, he was
obliged to take rather late in the year
She had looked forward to his return
with some excitement. Dick. she knew
was frivolous and reckless in his habits,
he went to the theatre occasionally. and
frequently spent an evening playing
billiards and smoking cigars at friends
house. There would be real credit in
reforming poor Cousin Dick.
He was not long, of course, in hearing
of Priscilla's marvellous endowment,
and upon the first occasion they were
alone together treated her with a respect
and admiration which he had very GER
tainly never shown her before.

But don't know, Dick. only talk
and the jewels come-that is all
"You artful little girl! You can keeT

Priscilla thoroughly enjoyed the first

was only too grateful for instruction.
and begged that Priscilla would tell her,
quite candidly, of any shortcomings she
might notice. And Priscilla, very kind
ly and considerably, always did tell her.
Belle and Catherine We're less docile, and
she saw that it would take her some
time to win their esteem and affection,
but this was just what Priscilla liked
it was the usual experience of the hero
esting, too, than conquering her cousins
hearts at once.
Still, both Catherine and Belle per
sistently hardened their hearts against
their gentle little cousin in the most I'M
kind way; they would scarcely speak to
her, and chose to make a grievance out
of the fact that one or other of them was
obliged, by their mothers strict orders,
to be constantly in attendance upon her,
in order to pick up and bring Mrs. Hoyle
all the jewels that Priscilla scattered in
profusion wherever she went.
"If you would only carry plate about
with you, Priscilla" complained Belle
one day, "you could catch the jewels in
that"
But don't want to catch the jewels.
dear Belle" said Priscilla, with playful
but very sweet smile. eff other people
prize such things, that is not my fault, is
it? Jewels do not make people any hap

IL should think not" exclaimed Belle
I'm sure my back perfectly aches with

under the sideboard, and mother will be
so angry if don't get it out. 1t is too
bad of you. Priscilla. | believe you do
1t on purpose"
"Ah, yJu will know me better some
day, dear" was the gentle response.
well, at all events, think you might
be naughty just now and then, Prissie,
and give Cathie and me half holiday"
Il would do anything else to please
you, dear, but not that. You must not
ask me to do what is impossible"
Alas! not even this angelic behavior,
not even the loving admonitions, the
tender rebukes, the shocked reproaches,
that fell, accompanied by perfect cas-
cades of jewels, from the lips of our
pattern little Priscilla, succeeded in re-
moving the utterly unfoundad prejudices
of her cousins, though it was some con-
ISOLATION to feel that she was gradually
acquiring most beneficial influence
over her aunt, who called Priscilla "her
little conscience" For. you see, Priscil-
las conscience had SO little to do on her
own account that it was always at the
service of other people, and indeed quite
enjoyed being useful, as was only natur-
al to conscientious conscience, which
felt that it could never have been Great

Determination to Quit
MADRID, Nov. 2l.-At a meeting Of the
cabinet this morning Senior Siliya, minister
OF the interior, expressed his desire to re.
sign, giving as bis reason the fact that ell
the politicians of Spain seemed to approve
OF the programme announced by the con,
servative party. Even the reformists, said
Senior Silva, had accepted the con-
servative principles. Canovas Del Castillo,
president Of the council of the ministers,
tried to dissuade Senior Silva from his pur-
pose, but all arguments were OF NO avail.
Thereupon, at the suggestion Of Senior VIII
laverde, minister OF justice, the entire cabi-
met resigned. The queen accepted the
designations and charged Senor Canovas
with the duty Of forming a new ministry.
