Looking forward to the morrow
Ever keeping this in mind
Pearls OF great price, are hard to

pressions in the minds of the jurors that
she was attempting to obstruct the
course of justice. But, after all, the in
formation size gave literally amounted
to nothing.
Mrs. Wilkins was not so fortunate in
her ordeal, but she said what she had
to say with a blunt Indifference to re-
suits, which disarmed suspicion.
The chemist, who had analyzed the
remains of the deceased, testified that
he had found abundant traces of miner

show how or when the unfortunate
man had taken 1t.
OF course the child's valise and the
box addressed to Ambrose Arlington
had been thoroughly examined, but
their contents revealed mo- clew to the

With these few facts before them,
the verdict of the jury was conclusive
that Ambrose Arlington had died Of
poisoning, but by whose hand the drug
had been administered there was no
evidence to show.
The newspapers the next morning

CHAPTER III.
A GOOD SAMARITAN.

Isaac Evesham, of Buffalo, lumber
man and mill owner, was in a certain
sense great man-not personally, for
he was short and chunky in figure; not
mentally, for he had no more imagina-
ton than a COW; not morally, for
though he was the prop and stay of Lit
tie Bethel church, which was mainly sup
ported by his contributions, he ignored
the Masters precept to love his neigh
Dor as himself and chose rather to look
at him as one to be spoiled as a. Philis-
tine. Still he was very great man
at Buffalo.
His sense of duty was overpowering.
1t was duty which led him to prosecute
poor widow for stealing bundle of
splints; duty had induced him to grind
his laborers down to the lowest days
pay for the biggest days work: and it
was duty which had countenanced his
just indignation and strongly expressed
disapproval when his brother, twenty
years younger than himself, had per-
petrated marriage with a penniless
girl--an act little less than a crime in
the eyes of the astute lumberinan.
He had married, of course, but he had
been wise enough to 'love a lass and
her money, too" and had nothing to re-
proach himself for in the prim, pinched-
faced matron, who presided over the
great, square, red-briclx, public school
like building he called his home. He
had been blessed with children, too
bne, boy whom he had mentally
starved to DEATH denying him story
books and the casual enjoyment of
childish liberty, and who had grown al
most to a manhood of harmless imbe-
cility, when he had suddenly siclened
and died; and girl, more robust, who
had survived her fathers immaculate
system to reach womanhood, a hard,
cold, selfish person, with fear of her
father and contempt for her mother in
the place of filial affection.
The breakfast table in the Evesham
mansion was not the CHEEKY. social gath
ering place it is in some families, and on
one especial morning in leafy June the
early meal was a more solemn cere-
mony than usual. Mrs. Evesham was
never very lively, but to-day she was
exceptionally detected; Jane had been
sighted at young peoples gathering
in the church parlors the previous even
ing, and was properly resentful, and
the master of the house was not quite
satisfied with the rulings of the market
and vented his disappointment on his
women folk after the manner of men Of
his peculiar temperament. He sat toy
ing with his beefsteal and reading the
morning newspaper. Suddenly he cleo

well" Mrs. EveSham said decisive
ly, 1--WE must base all our hopes on
cleaning some information from it's
contents. At any rate we can do no
good by remaining here. Win you get
ready to accompany us home?"
Indeed ! will, men," the woman as
sented gratefully, IAN glad I'll be to go
with you; for there's nothing dread SO
much as to be alone in this big city,"
So, as soon as the little ceremonies
of the debarkation of an emigrant
were fulfilled hack was called, and
they drove in a party to Mrs. Evesham's
residence to be received by Alice in
furry of pleased excitement. Little
Wanda ruled the establishment like
royal princess from the moment that
she set her tiny foot across the thresh-
old, holding in slavish subsection every
human being about the place. With
the usual inconsistency of great little
personages, she lavished her affections
most prodigally on Harry, the one least
likely to appreciate them, but who yield
ed with good grace to the inevitable.
Who could Withstand the whims of such
winsome little fairy? AS for Alice
and Kate, they constituted themselves
her ladies-in-waiting, and never was
regal parsonage more faithfully and pa
tiently served.
That night the stars looked down upon
a sweet group of childish innocence.
In a cot which Mrs. Evesham had inn
provised for the occasion, lay baby
Wanda sound asleep, while side by side
knelt the figures of Alice and Kate,
praying the Father in Heaven to take
under the wings of His protection the
slumbering form of Number SKIS sister
1t was pretty sight, and SO thought
Mrs. Evesham, as she stood at the door
way, gazing on the innocent scene.
The chamber was a side room ON the
ground floor, with a window opening
into small alley. The servant had
neglected to close the shutters, and,
though there was little chance of an
hoyance from obtrusive eyes in that
secluded quarter, the young landlady
turned aside to draw down the blind.
But in the very act she stood trans
fixed withs terror; for glaring at her
through the window-pane was the white
face of the man who had pretended to
photograph the body of Ambrose Arl-
ington.
