More Elegant.

At the flower market in Washington
are many interesting occurrences which
have nothing to do with buying flowers,
for there, as at any place where all sorts
Of people gather together, human ma
ture expresses itself in odd and varying
ways.
A lady from the north, who was in
the habit of frequenting the market to
see what new floral treasures would ap-
pear from day to day, one morning
spied a flower she had never before seen.
"What is that?" she asked of the old
colored woman who had brought it in.
'"That, miss?" was the reply. "That's

Now, the lady had heard the name be.

was nothing funny in it. Nevertheless
there was something about the present

laughed. just then q gentleman came

attention.

She hesitated and looked distressed.
Evidently there had been something
wrong about the name before, and now
she was asked to say it again.

chief for the way this request was put,
but still it CALLED him to think that he
was under suspicion of having done any
bodily injury to his wife, SO he quietly
persisted, "Do you think have done
Lali any harm?"
''The thing is strange" replied the
other. "You are of those who are great
among your people. You married a
daughter of red man. Then she was
yours for less than one moon, and you
sent her far away, and you staid. Her
father was as dog in your sight. Do
men whose hearts are clear act so? They
have said strange things of you. I have
not believed, but it is good I know all,
that I may say to the tale bearers, You
have crooked tongues.

face turned to the open window. He

out her hand to him, but did not look
up. "Leave me alone with my baby,
Richard" she pleaded.
He took her hand and pressed it again
and again in his old, unconscious way.
Then he let it go and went slowly to
the door. There he turned and looked
back at her. He mastered the hot
thought in him.
"God help mep' she murmured from
the cot.
The next morning Richard went back

an Indian, showing her common prairie
origin. His knowledge Of her before
their marriage had been particularly
brief. She was little more in his eyes
than thousand other Indian women,
save that she was better looking, was
whittier than most and had finer features.
He could not very clearly remember the
tones of her voice, because after mar
riage and before he had sent her to Eng
land he had seen little or nothing Of
her.
When General Armour received the
news of Franks return, he told his wife
and Marion, and they consulted together
whether it were good to let Lali know
at once. He might arrive that evening.
If SO, the position would be awkward,
because it was impossible to tell how it
might affect her If they did tell her,
and Frank happened not to arrive, it
might unnerve her SO as to make her
appearance in the evening doubtful.
Richard, the wiseacre, the inexhausti-
BILE Richard, was caring for his cottagers
and cutting the leaves of new books
his chief pleasure-at Greyhope. They
felt it was a matter they ought to
be able to decide for themselves, but
still it was the last evening Of Lali's
stay in town, and they did not care to
take any risk. Strange to say, they had
come to take pride in their son s wife, for
even General and Mrs. Armour, high
minded and of serene social status as
they were, seemed not quite insensible
to the pleasure Of being an axle on
which a system Of social notoriety re-
volved.
At the opportune moment Captain
Vidal was announced, and because he
and Marion were soon to carry but one
name between them he was called into
family consultation. 1t is somewhat
singular that in this case the women
were quite wrong and the men were
quite right, for General Armour and
Captain Vidal were for silence until
Frank came, if he came that day, or for
telling her the following morning, when
the function was over And the men

Possibly Both Were Wrong.

A handsomely dressed woman was
walking across the Campus Martius
when small boy stole after her, and
reaching up touched the fur cape she
wore.

corner, what are you up to? Look

The boy darted on ahead and waited
until the policeman was looking in an.
other direction, when he again followed
the lady, and this time she felt the
small fingers touch her arm. She turned
and looked down pleasantly into his
face.

CHAPTER VIII.

1t was the close of the season, Many
people had left town, but festivities
were still on. To a stranger the season
might have seemed at its height. The
Armours were giving a large party in
Cavendish square before going back
again to Greyhope, where, for the sake Of
Lali and her child, they intended to re-
main during the rest Of the summer in
preference to going on the continent or
to Scotland. The only unsatisfactory
feature of Lali's season was the absence
of her husband. Naturally there were
those who said strange things regarding
Frank Armour's stay in America, but it
was pretty generally known that he was
engaged in land speculations, and his
club friends, who perhaps took the
pleasantest view Of the matter, said that
he was very wise indeed, if little cow
ardly, in staying abroad until his wife
was educated and ready to take her po-
sition in society. There was one thing
on which they all agreed-Mrs. Frank
Armour either had mind superior to
the charms of their sex or was incapa-
BILE of that vanity which hath many
suitors and says, $50 far shalt thou go.
and"--
The fact is, Mrs. Frank Armour's
mind was superior. She had only one
object-to triumph over her husband
grandly, as awoman righteously might.
She had vanity, Of course, but it was
not igneble. She kept one thing in
yiewi she lived for it. Her translation
had been successful There were times
when she remembered her father, the
wild days on the prairies, the buffalo
hunt, tracking the deer, tribal battles,
the long silent hours of the winter and
the warm summer nights when she slept
in the prairie grass or camped with her
people in the trough of a great land
wave. Sometimes the hunger fog its
freedom, and its idleness, and its sport
came to her greatly, but she thought Of
her child, and she put it from her. She
was ambitious for him; she was keen to
prove heF worth as wife against her
husbands pnworthiness. This perhaps
saved her. She might have lost had hep
life been without this motive,
The very morning Of this notable re-
ception General Armour had received a
note from Frank Armour's solicitor say
lgg that his son was likely to arrive In
London from America that day or the
next. Frank had written to his people no
word of his coming. To his wife, as we
have said, he had not written for months,
aaa before he started back he would
not write. because be wished to make
what amends he could in person. he
expected to find her improved, of course,
but still he could only think Of her as

grave He was about to reply to the
chief when the trader entered the room
hurriedly with newspaper in his hand.
He paused abruptly when he saw Eye
of-the- Moon. Armour felt that the
trader had something important to COM
municate. He guessed it was in the pa
per. He mutely held out his hand for it.
The trader handed it to him hesitating-
ly, at the same time pointing to para
graph and saying: "It is nearly two
years old, as you see. CHANGED upon it
by accident today"
It was copy Of a London evening
paper containing somewhat sensa-
tional account of Lali s accident. It said
that she was in q critical condition.
This time Armour did not ask for
brandy. but the trader put it out beside
him. He shook his head. Gordon"
he said presently, 81 shall leave here
in the morning. Please send my men to
me-"
The trader whispered to him: "She
was all right, Of course, long ago, Mr..
Armour, or you would have heard"
Armour looked at the date Of the pa
per. He had several letters from Eng
land of q later date, and these said moth
ing Of her illness. It bewildered him;
made him uneasy. Perhaps the first real
sense Of his duty as husband came
home to him there. For the first time
he was anxious about the woman for
her own sake. The trader had left the
room.
"What scoundrel I've beenp' said
Armour between his teeth, oblivious for
the moment Of Eye-of- the Moons pres
ence. Presently, bethinling himself, he
turned to the Indian. GIVE been debat-
Ing" he said. "Eye-of- the Moon. my
wife is in England, at my fathers home.
I am going to her. Men have lied in
thinking I would do her any injury,
but, but-never mind, the harm was Of
another kind. 1t isn't wise for white
man and an Indian to marry, but when
they are married-well, they must live
AZ man and wife should live, and, as I
said, I am going to my -wife-your
daughter. "
To say all this to common Indian
whose only property was q half dozen
ponies and couple Of tepees required
something very like moral courage, but,
then, Armour had not been exercising
moral courage during the last year Or so.
and its exercise was profitable to him.
The next morning he was on his way to
Montreal, and Eye-of the Moon was the
richest chief in British North America
at that moment by So, 900 or SO.
