him, for never a word of plant had

They were all there, breathlessly ex-
pectant. Even DIR. Jacobson's hand
trembled as he united the linen wrap
pings. AS for the women, their hearts
stood still with deep emotion.
Then the shapely head was lifted, a
slight, amazed expression fitted across
the noble features and George Arundel
murmured, in tone of ecstacy that
thrilled the listeners:
''Oh, God! 1 see!''
And he alone could speak Then the

Mr.. Hardcastle, in the abandon of his
joy, and, let us hope, in the pardonable
forgetfulness of the moment, put his

absolutely kissed her, a proceeding
which none-not even the widow
seemed to think out of place.
"You must not excite him." DIR. Jacob

Length of the Great Toe.

A new and great German ANATOMY.
Art book tells about toes: "Some au-
thorities insist that the great toe ought
to project furthest, others that it should
not project quite SO far as the second toe;
While others, again, maintain that the
Two should be of equal length. 1t is we'll
known that in antique statues the second
toe is usually the longer of the two,
while the first is longer in living men.
Some persons are of the opinion that the
latter condition is consequence of wear.
ing boots and shoes. while others hold
that the longer second toe in the antique
is an artistic figment. Both are in the
wrong" To prove this, the author then
gives the exact measurements of the
foot of an old man in whom the second
toe was obviously longer than the first
and yet the man had worn ordinary foot,
gear from his earliest youth. To show
that in addition to external influences
personal characteristics must be con-
sldered, he next instances an Egyptian
tellah girl, in whom the great toe was
conspicuously longer than the second,
although she had certainly never worn
shoes Of the European pattern, and prob.
ably not any at all. That it is not an
artistic fiction is clear from the state
ment of an Italian sculptor, that though
in Italy it is the exception for the second
toe to exceed the first in length, yet this
is not infrequently to be met with.
Hence Professor Brucke concludes that
nm artist is justified in representing the
feet on the type which he regards as the
most beautiful among the forms actually
observed by him, and not necessarily as
in his model.

they turned upon him with the revela-
tion that his first marriage was known

ter of the earl of Newton Solney; that
consequently that marriage was null

''Twenty-one years, is it not?' Harry

own way in everything. Ambrose left
his home heart-broken, the old earl

inordinate affection. Thus two years
passed very miserably for all parties.

1t Is not generally known that Lent.
the springtide fast of forty days, ending
with Easter, owes its English name to
the Anglo-Saxon lencten, meaning
Spring" In medieval times lencten
became softened into lenten, and then
lent
According to some authorities, the fast
was originated by the apostles of Christ,
while others consider that it was origin
ated by the early Christian church,
Whatever the story of its origin, its OBJ
ject was to prepare church h-goers for the
great anniversaries of Chrlst's crucifixion
and resurrection, aud its period is sup
posed to have been determined by the
duration-forty days-of Christ's fast in
the wilderness.
In the fourth century sentiment
arose in the Christian church favorine
the extension of the period. The West
ern branch of the church made the fast
extend through fifty days, and the East
ern branch through seventy days. In
715 the Western church fixed the begin
ming of the fast on Ash Wednesday,
thus making the period once more forty
days.
There is considerable uncertainty re-
Garding the nature of the obligation of
the fast in the early church. But it is
supposed that until the last week of the
period fasting was voluntary. On that
week, early named Holy Week. " it was
obligatory, and the Council of Toledo,
held in GAG, forbade the use of flesh meat.
Wine and oil were also prohibited, and
in the Greek or Eastern church are still
prohibited on fast DAYS.

One difficulty, however, worried the
young man, which was how to dispose
of DIR. Forester, whose presence would
materially mar his plans. He decided
at last to play bold game, and wrote
the learned gentleman as follows:
"My dear doctor, l have resolved to
act alone in the Arlington affair. If
you keep perfectly quiet and do not in

munifcently rewarded for the clew you

And when the doctor received this
curt announcement he piously thanked
heaven that his lot was not cast among
those abominable Americans, who had
no aristocracy and consequently no
sense of honor and chivalry, but wisely
resolved to bide his time for the present
at least.
Meanwhile it was whispered among
the servants at the hall that the stall
