CHAPTER XVII.

Reltran saw BeatriX at the opera the
next evening where she sat with the
Duchess of Elmslie in that lady's box.
Rut the presence of the Duke Of Heath
land. who was also there, prevented any
tender intimacies.
On the following evening one of Bel
trans professional acquaintances- per-
seyering, stolid young barrister of the
Temple said to him:
81 saw you at the opera last night;
that was the beautiful Miss Lennox you
were with. I saw the Duke of Heath
land, too. Are you taken captive, Bel
tram?
81 have the greatest admiration for
Miss Iennox," he replied, haughtily.
"Take my advice and let it be nothing
more than admiration" said the other.
81 was afraid it had gone further than
that: and with the golden prospect Of
success that lies before you there could
be no greater evil for you, my dear boy,
than an unhappy love-
ssThere is no thought about love-" de-
clared Beltran, haughtily. Even if there
were, l do not see why it must be un-
happy"
"But I do opposed his friend. "Miss
Tennox is heiress of Erceldean; she-is the
niece and heiress of. a millionaire. You
have nothing but what you earn by your
own industry. There is no similarity be-
tween such lots. The world will say
strange things of you if you appear as the
admirer CT great heiress."
Reltran Carew sat in his room alone
that night. He had never thought so long
or so seriously in his life before. The
few careless words that his fellow bar
rister had spoken had pierced his Utmost
heart. Tor the first time he realized the
difference in the social position of Miss
Lennox and himself, and saw plainly
what the world would think Of him-how
the world would judge and calumniate
him. She was the heiress of a million
aire. he was barrister struggling at the
commencement of his career.
II wish l could make her princess or
a Duchess" he said. ''For the first time
in my life envy the rich man his title
and his wealth. I would fain be prince
i would fain have dukedom."
Then he thought to himself that, after
all, the grandest honors, noblest titles,
were those man won for himself All,
if he could but win them!
$50 cam" he unused, and he stretched
out his strong hands as he threw the
hair back from his brow-"I have the
strength and the energy; but then could
not ask her to spend the best years Of her
sweet life waiting for me. 1t would not
be fair, it would not be just cannot
do it,
There was only one thing for him to
do, but he decided upon going to see his
mother before he did it.

She took the flower from his hands and

what a sweet summer night" salo'
Beltran. ''Tell me about the summer
nights on Loeb Narn."
They talked so happily, so easily, as
though they had known each other Ior
years. Beatrix forgot her shyness. one
only remembered how clever he was, how
like everything she had dreamed that was
noble and gifted in man. After time
she asked him about his profession, ana
he spoke of it to her in simple frank
hearted fashion that delighted her. once
she gathered spray of jasmine that lay
near her hand.
"How beautiful the color of that lear
isr, she said: and he bent over her to look
at it.
The fragrance from the scarlet rose IN
her dress reached him. He could not ac-
count for the madness that seized him;
he bent his head and kissed the white
hand that held the spray of jasmine. one
did not rcbuke him; that appeared some
what strange to him. The little manu-
trembled for minute in his clasp, ana
then lay STILL He dared not trust NM
self to speak; all the hot, passionate WORDS
that seemed to surge from his heart to MS
lips were driven back relentlessly; SO
tempted, so sorely tempted was he to clasp
her in his arms for one moment. lhe
impulse was strong; he trembled as ne re-
sisted it.
Just then there was sound in the
room.
Mamma is awake" said Beatr1x.
He bent over her and whispered hur-
riedly:
"Tell me, when and where shall meet
YOU again? Be kind to me. The time IS
approaching when it will not be so easy
to see you"

evening"" she said. "You can come TO
our box"
In another moment Lady Lennox drew
aside the white lace hangings and looked
out with smile.
sWhat considerate children she said.
81 ought to offer many apologies to you,
Mr.. Carew; but you are so kind that
think need not utter them"
They babe each other a cordial good
night; but, when Beltran said goodnight
to Beatrix, he did it with heightened
color. Miss Lennox stood quite silent;
the dark eyes did not meet his, but her
little hand rested for minute IN MS
warm grasp. If Lady Lennox had been
one degree keener, that goodnight must
have told its own story.

The Smoking Chimney Top.

Morn after morn the artisan
Has watched with longing eye
To see the grimy smoke in Wreaths
Swirl up into the sky;
He listened for the whistle shrill-
It's echoes came not back
And cold and black and desolate
Still stood the chimney stack.

Behold the smoke crowned chimney stack
Industry's monument.
The shouts of men give him good cheer
When he has reached his goal;
The kissing steam, the factry roar
Are music to his soul.
The grimy Titans Of the shop
Waits of the wizards brain
With deft and skillful hand he leads
Submissive in his train;
Or with uplifted arm he rains
Such sturdy, ringing blows
AS fashion forms of usefulness,
And thrift and wealth bestoWs;
He laughs and sings from morn till nlgos
Like the miller of the Dee;
His fireside is his sweet delight;
Rich in content is he.
He hears again the tuneful ring
That molds the hammered steel,
He hears again the whirring din
Of swiftly turning wheel:
There are the bustling ranks of men
Our nations stalwart prop;
The fires are lit and there, above,
Is the smoking chimney top.

 Different Effects of a Beard Upon the
 Voice Described by a Specialist.
 The Church Economist has been dis cussing the effect of a beard on the voice, and in a recent issue it quotes a well-known throat and voice specialist as follows:
 "The effect will depend largely upon the individual. If the speaker has nat urally a, thick voice which he uses bad ly, a small amount of obstruction will make itself apparent. If he has a clear, penetrating voice. the effect Of a moderate amount of obstruction may not be noticeable, although 1t would certainly exert some influence, greater or less, upon the carrying power and resonance of the tone.
 "A mustache will interfere in propor- ton to the amount of space upon which it encroaches in the neighbor- hood of the middle of the mouth. Thus a mustache trimmed to the margin of the upper lip, or one rolled from the middle of the lip so as to be free of the margin of the lip, however long it might be at the ends, would not inter- fere. A dropping mustache, on the oth- CT hand, especially where it covers the middle of the mouth, is great hin drance to the proper emission of sound. The presence of but a few hairs in this situation may materially modify the tone waves and impair their effect.
 Anything better calculated to defeat the object of the speaker than a speech mumbled through dropping mustache with the head bent downward could hardly be imagined. The robin is an admirable example for the minister to follow. When he sings he perches him. self on twig, breast well out head up, bill opened wide, and pours forth throws out, as the voice culturist would say-his lovely little melody.
 Surely common sense should be the leading rule for public speaker in this and other matters. One has little tole- ration for the man, your neighbor at dinner, who addresses you with head bent over his plate, as if in converse tion was subsidiary to the consumption of food A minister who bends over his desk and addresses the floor should stand no better in the estimation of his hearers.

She Guessed His Riddle Before He
 Stated It.
 There was nothing special to take Bixby down town the other night, so he decided to stay at home and give Mrs. Bixby the rare treat of his com- pany for the evening.
 While glancing over the paper as she sat sewing. Bixby thought how hap py she must be at being allowed to bask in his presence, and later on, in burst of amiable generosity, he decided to even bestow upon her an intellectual treat. He had after reading the adver- tisements, cast his eye upon the puzzle column of the paper, and the thought was born in him to spring upon her a puzzle originated in his own head.
 After long study he concluded to in- vent an enigma. He decided upon the word "Poe," an easy one, suited to Mrs Bixby's feminine and therefore feeble perceptions. The enigma was to recite three words in which the letter of the name are found, and to wind up with My whole is well-known poet"
 "Clara," said MT. Bixby, suddenly and explosively.
 Mrs. Bixby started out of her dreamy state of mind and almost dropped her sewing.
