n SOCIAL BORE.
a Few Remarks on the Subject That Cam
not Be Misunderstood.

Ours is an age of universal tolera-
ton; the vicious and the saint, the ag.
nostic and the fanatic, have all a social
welcome extended to them, and ar Itch
ing ear is always at their service, says
the Saturday ReUiep, so long as they
are amusing, but no longer. Society

into the night; it is a fear before which
the stoutest heart fails. and the man
who has fed from any company. il
questioned as to the reasons for his
flight. has only 10 offer one excuse and
his offeuse is at ones condoned.
He has but to say that he was bored
or feared that he might be bored or
that he knew an army of bores awaited
him in those regions 10 which his steps
were for the moment ordered, and only
the eccentric or the imbecile question
the propriety or the necessity for his
precipitate retreat. II we are asked as
to whether this state of things is a
wholesome one, showing that society is
in a healthy and regenerate state, we
can confidently affirm THAT the attitude
is one of grace and is not necessarily
contrary to Christian doctrine and
practice.
II there is an injunction to turn the
other cheek 10 the smiter there is no
command to present either ear for the
use of that enemy of mankind, the So
cial bore. But there is a command
that a check should be kept on the UNI
ruly member and it is certainly a Chris
tian act to assist the unhappy owner to
control this member by giving him
nothing to exercise it upon. Further,
we are told to live at peace with all men
and to cultivate bores is to feel out OF
charity with the whole world.
Sometimes one bore will frequent the
society of another, whose tiresomeness.
differing from his own, he is quite able
to perceive, but whose intimacy he cul-
tivates because he finds that by listen
ing to his diffuse discourses he receives
a similar kindness for himself. These
natural selections should not be inter-
fered with; bores should by a gentle
process of weeding-out be placed to-
gether and should be encouraged TO
bore each other, for that is usually not
their ideal of amusement. That bores
have a fatal tendency to attach them
selves to those who are not bores is a
~well-known intirmity Of the race, but
it is not kindness 20 encourage them in
a path which means the extinction Of
all virtue in those ~long-suffering mcm-
beers of society whom they have got hold
Of in an unwary hour.

CHAPTER XVI.
BY THE SEA.


The next day was Sunday. Irose early
and put on my idling clothes, a dark suit of
tweed. That l took more than usual pains
with myself may be assumed from the fact
that my aunt, as l strolled into breakfast.
started, and looked at me from head to foo,
In no little surprise. Then she sighed deep
ly, and glanced at my uncle, who, also dress
ed for the day, In q suit Of solemn black, was
sitting moodily by the fire.
For many days past, there he'd been no
ticeable a curious change in my uncle's man
ner. Iscarcely observed 1t ut the time, for
my heart was too full of other and pleasanter
impressions; but afterward. when l came to
think it over, l remembered wildly what had
previously passed without remark. To begin
with, he looked at least ten years older. His
old CHEEKY laugh was gone; and his eyes had
a hard, far-away look, very different to their
former happy brightness Sometimes, as we
sat together, he would rise abruptly and pass
out OF the house, leaving the meal on the
table untouched. My aunt seemed to forget
her own trouble In watching his; and roth
ing could surpass the silent tenderness with
which she waited upon him, never breath
ing a word of her solicitude, but showing in
q hundred gentle ways her wifely sympathy
and devotion.
On the present occasion we breakfasted
very late; and as we sat, there came to us,
family waited over the distant moorland,
me suunu of the ~cliurch-bells. My uncle
started, listened, and drew back his chair.
Then, before we could say q word, he seized
his hat and left the house.
'Gaw after him, Hughr' cried my aunt
adding quickly, Ma, stayl Maybe tits bet
ter To let Jun be. Oh. Hugh. Hugh, no never
been the sama man since our Annie went
fra hameg'
And the tears streamed down her worn
cheeks as she spoke. and her voice was
broken.
sDos't fret auntr' I said, gently. srm

from her own letter that no harm has come
to her,"

prominent society women met at the
