There was waking up OF the wheat

Power of the Camera.

The wonderful power OF a photo
graphic camera to bring out details
that are invisible to, the naked eye
was referred to by w. Lewis Fraser
in his lecture at the Academy Of Fine
Arts yesterday, and he vouched for a
remarkable instance of that kind
which recently occurred in New York.
a photograph was taken Of one Of the
new American liners. and on receipt
Of the proof the owners were surprised
to see handful pasted on the side
of the hull. An examination of the
ship showed no handful there, but
another photograph revealed the
same result. A more thorough in
spectioc revealed the presence OF the
mysterious paper buried beneath four
coats OF paint so completely as to
defy the scrutiny of a human eye.

when the butler came in and handed
| her card inscribed in bold capitals
| with the name of Samuel T. Willatts.
Mercy" exclaimed the little lady,
| tossing the card over to her compan-
| ion: "what is to be done now"
Send him away" answered Mrs.
! Underwood.
But Mrs. Willatts demurred to the
adoption of such drastic measures. If
Samuel means seeing me, / guess he'll
see me-. said she. Besides, l don't
| want he should think I'm afraid of
him. Only he shall not come to my
ball unless he gives me his solemn
promise that he won't wear white
waistcOat or a diamond shirt-stud."
Mrs. Underwood intimated her opin-
could do would be to assent to that
modest stipulation. and after her frier d
had left her she awaited results with
some anxiety. Mrs. Underwood was
clever, but she was not rich. She ap-
preciated aristocratic society and was
appreciated in it: but, unhappily, her
private means were inadequate to the
entertainment Of dukes and duchesses.
Since, therefore, she had the present
prospect of free and comfortable quar-
terS for several months to come, she
could not feel any very ardent desire
for healing over of the breach which
existed in the Willatts household.
Her apprenensions, however, were ap-
parently groundless. for at the expira-
ton of twenty minutes Mrs. Willatts
re-entered the room, flushed and ex-
cited, and. throwing herself upon a
sofa. exclaimed:
Il do hate that man. absolutely
hate him."
Poor fellow said the relieved Mrs.
Underwood, with laugh. What has
he been doing now"

And" continued Mr.. Whats i'm

edge that your services have received

The smile faded from Lord Georges
face. Il am surpri-ed," said he, that
a third person should have been told
of what was assured would remain q
purely confidential transactions: but.
since that promise seems to have been
broken. had better, perhaps, mention
to you that the sums to which you al
lude represented q loan. not q remu-

very kindly offered me temporary as
sistance. OF course, couldn't posi-
bly, have accepted"

latts: this is irrelevant. In the course
of business Mrs. Willatts' drafts had to
pass through my hands: otherwise |

remarks to make upon the question of
loan or payment. But presume may

You may say nothing of the sort,
sir" interrupted Lord George in his
turn: Il owe no account Of my actions
to you: nor, to the best of my belief,
does Mrs. Whats, whom have always
understood to be a lady of in dependent
means. If your object in re luesting
this interview was to crOss-examine
me you will gain nothing by protract-
ing it."
