In view of the fact that the discussion of the

government would refrain from insisting upon
further consideration of the bill. But the gov

Fashion EIutterings.

GRACEFUL Drlncesse coats of ribbed velvet
are worn with skirts of cloth or silk
SOME of the new French dress skirts show
row of tiny frills alternating with very
narrow bands of velvet or galoon.
FIcHUs are much worn, being made of
almost any material one may have on hand,
or may feel inclined to purchase. Lace and
rose-buds, plain chiffon, embroidered chiffon
any thing and everything go to make up
these ornaments.
BEURRENoIx or butternu brown of a de-
cidedly reddish shade, appears among some
of the rich fabrics of the season. It is often
used by ladies' tailors Tor elegant visiting
dinner dresses of corded silk and plain vel
vet, camels hair, velours, bengaline and
ladies' cloth.
MORE elaborate than ever before are the
silk petticoats designed for evening wear.
One model that is of green and crimson shot
silk has the lower edge alternately filed
with red and green silk. Narrow ruffles of
black lace with the upper edges threaded in
and out with bebe ribbon tall over those OF
the silk.
THERE is such variety of modes from
which to choose this season that all figures
can select the style OF dressing which best
accords with their requirements. There are
the Empire and Directoire waists for slim
fashion, ior stouter forms; Drincesse models,
which greatly aid in imparting a slender
effect, besides the comet skirt and long
waisted French bodice, which imDart an
attractive symmetry to the generality of

FOUND OUT.

How the idea took root in his mind he
never knew; but there it was, and it grew
and grew till faint hope came with 1t.
What if this woman was an impostor?
1t was wild hope, considering that
Laviuia's voice still rang in his ears.
Lavinia's face was ever before him.
Still there was the hope, and vague
though it was, would not be driven out
Mrs. Minor was dead. but there was still
one person living who had known his first
wife as child.
So he travelled down to Pyedale and in
terviewed this person, who years ago had
been Lavinia's nurse.
The short winter afternoon was closing in
as he walked up the struggling village
street. At the door of the wheelwright's
cottage stood the wheelwright's wife-Han-
nah Stone, the woman Captain Blount had
come in search OF.
She knew him at once, and begged him to
step into a stuffy little parlor, whose win
dow was crowded with flowers that still
bIoomed, despite the season.
For more than an hour he sat talking
with Mrs. Stone, and when he arose to go
the cloud from his face had nearly lifted.
What if his wild hope had some founda-
tion after all?
On New Years Day he met Lavinia.
sWhat have you decided to do?" she
asked. Though indeed but one course is
open to YOU
'And that"
SIS to reinstate me in my proper position
as your wife,"
81 will when am certain that we stand
in that relation to each other, he said
Sternly.

RIOuNT'S DILEMMA

CAPTAIN BLOUNT'S DILEMMA.
''It happened in this way" she said as
they paced the frozen pavements of the
quiet Bloomsbury squares. 81 meant to go
to Aunt Claire, but missed the train. 1

journey till next day; but in the booking
office 1 met Madame Lacroix. Do you
remember her? No, of course 1 forgot that
you are far above remembering people who
were nv friends She boarded long time
with aunt, and finally started a pension of
her own at Boulogne.
At the time we met she was on the look
out for a suitable partner. We did some
shopping and had tea talking OF her affairs
all the time. She did not know of my mar
riage, and had not found Of an opportun-
ity to tell her. 1t was getting dark when
we lett the confectioner's, and the newsboys
were shouting particulars of the horrible
railway accident on the Midland Railway.
Then all in flash the idea occurred to me of
hiding tor a time; you would believe me
dead; it would give you a horrible fright
and bring back that love for your wife which
she knew she was losing; and was so sick
of our humdrum existence.
At the very moment this scene occurred
Fate, in the shape OF Madame Lacroix, aided
it.
"Why should not you come. Lavinia?"
she said abruptly her mind still running on
the wants of her pension.
"Why, indeed" returned. SIT is the
very thing to suit me-"

Bloomsbury house, at all events, all was
warmth and comfort.
"Now, DEAR" said Kathleen, "you must
start to meet papa.
She had developed into charming young
matron, and the look she cast on her hus-
band was full of love.
"Plenty of time, Puss,' he said content
edly, yet rising from his chair and submit
ting himself to be helped on with his over
coat. ''The Colonel's train is not due till
$780,"
'But you had better go, you might miss
him."
So he turned out of the warm dining
room into the clear, cold night.
Kathleen came to the hall door and drew
back with a pretty shiver as a rude blast
swept round the corner.
Captain Blount went down the steps into
the street. As he turned woman advanced
from the rallings, where she had been
crouching.
He gazed at her with idle curiosity. She
did not look the kind of a woman to be out
unprotected on such night.
She wore long loose cloak which COM
pletely covered her. and the hood of which
served as 3 bonnet
She raised her head and looked him full
in the face, then touched his arm and said
in a voice which made him shudder,
"Edred"
He recoiled and stared blankly In those
faded blue eyes.
For a moment, though he was not super
stitiOus, he wondered if she had not come
back from the grave. She who for three
years had been to all seeming dead.
He looked again. The forid face, the
masses of loose brown hair, which the rude
wind was tossing wildly, he knew well
enough. This was no spirit:
'Don't be afraid" she said with mock
ing laugh. I'm no ghost Do you not wish
1 was?
''My GodI'' be cried. 'Lavinia Where
have you been all these yesrs?" Then he
glanced at the lighted dining room where
Kathleen sat waiting
Come away" he said, taking her by the
arm. "For PHYS sake come away"

Needlework on White Linen.

orchids and narcissus are flowers most seen

the thistles are worked in their natural

small morning glories, with their vines and
tendrils and the flowers all in their natural
coIors, has the flowers wrought in net

CHAPTER II.
A SECOND MARR1AGE-AND AFrE,

A SECOND MARRIAGE-AND AFTER.
1t was late in the afternoon-afternoon at
Palermo-and an Englishman was strolling
along the Corso. With his fair sunburnt
face, blonde mustache and loose-ftting
tweed suit he formed striking contrast to
the pedestrians who thronged the footpath.
They were principally men, and wore long,
loose cloaks, which they drew in mufled
folds around them. The women were driv-
ing-it was the hour for fashionable out
door exercise, and everybody with any pre-
tensions to geEtility had carriage.
Captain Blount walked modify along
the narrow street. The tall houses, with
their heavy overhanging balconies, threw
dark shadows across the road and made even
brilliant June day appear dreary. Now
and then, as the ERglIshman glanced up at
the windows, he would catch glimses of
women seated watching the throng. They
glowed like jewels in a gloomy setting
those dark-eyed Southern beauties with
their bright-hued bodices and elaborate
ornaments.
Suddenly there was a block in the long
line of vehicles, and Blount heard his name
called out by hearty English voice. He
turned in surprise to the carriage from
which the voice came, and confronted his
old friend, Colonel Seton. The two men
shook hands cordially and through the
minds of each there flashed the memory of
other days-days spent under a'hot Indian
sun. They had not met since Blount was
sent invalided home.
Delighted to see you," cried the genial
Colonel. But, my dear chap, how i'll you
are looking. Surely that old wound"
'Never gives me a twinge," returned the
other. "The fact is, I've had a trouble. I'd
rather not talk about it,
'Ot course not, of course not" assented
the veteran. ''Pussy and 1 must try to
cheer you up. You remember Pussy-my
daughter Kathleen"
"I should think so; the prettiest little
fairy in the world and the pet of the sta
tion. Why. Colonel, she must be grown up
now. How old it MAKES one feel.''
"Grown up. OF course she is She's
quite an elegant young lady, is Pussy.
Come, jump in, Blount, and let me drive
you to the Villa Mscqueda. We are stay
ing there, and you and Kathleen can renew
your old acquaintance
Kathleen Seton was, indeed, an elegant
young lady. Captain Blount could hardly
believe his eyes. Was this Pussy-roguish

and the funniest little prattling tongue pos
sible? Had she really turned out such
beauty? For Kathleen's wondrous hazel
eyes, e1quisitely pure complexion, and
clear cut features certainly entitled her to
the distinction OF such a term.
She and the Captain were soon capital
friends
81 always liked you. better than the
others when was a wee thing in India"
she said one day. And the soldiers heart
beat with q strange new pleasure as he
looked down at the fresh girIish face.
''Was it possible" he asked himself i'm
patiently, "that he had been fool enough to
fall in love with the child?" Fool or no
fool, he soon knew that he had in very
trrth fallen captive to fair Kathleen. He.

"You will presently. Be good enough to
take off your gloves"
Her face paled, and her mouth twitched
conVulsiVely. But she looked up defantly.
"Don't be a fool" she said eVasiVely.
"Tell me what you are driving at"
BY a sudden movement he tore down heE

On the left wrist was large mole.

to it.; "you are Louise, my late wife's sister

You have no such scar. Believe me, the

He saw her trenble; he saw the color die
completely from her forid face, leaving
her white to the lips.

the nail home, ''the story of your misera-
