cording to the fashion of Spain in
blowing up the battleship Maine.
The consultations Of the president Of
the United States with Secretary Gage
in the present crisis as to the best
mode Of raising money for the war
ought to create much more anxiety
than any negotiations with the treach
erous Spaniards. because the Spaniards
do not pretend to be working in the
interest Of the United States, but Mr.
Gage does. The people of the United
States have recovered from the terri
Bile losses of the civil war, but they
may never recover from the infinitely
greater losses inflicted through the cum

her! They would never dare to
speak to her as they did but
for that knowledge. How we'll
they must know it. when they dared
to try to insult her through her father!
Lady Caravan felt something like
despair. Was such life after all
worth living? Her heart ached. her
head throbbed. She longed with des-
perate longing for a few minutes re-
pose-it seemed to her that her life was
hurrying on like swift river into an
unknown sea. She wanted to stop and
see whittier it was going. Every where
there was the same notes.-the deep
voices and deep laughter of men, the
light tones and gay laughter Of women
There was not a spot in the whole
place for rest. She pressed her hand
against the temples that throbbed so
violently. She looked around her half
irresolutely. Whittier should she go?
Then she bethought herself of the plea
saunce-the only spot where she could
even imagine herself alone.
The pleasaunce must have been con-
structed by some one who knew how
of the Ravensmere people knew of it's
existence-the visitors did not. Some
Of the servants were in perfect ignor-
ance as to it's whereabouts. It was con-
structed for the sole and exclusive use
of the Ladies' Caraven
The young countess bethought her
self Of this retreat She had one key
of the dark green door that led to it;
Sir Raotl had another She would 20
thither, she said to herself, and look
her life in the face, and then decide
what to do with it. It was slowly
| dawning across her that she would not
be able to bear her trials much longer
that she could not and would not en-
dure them; that there was a brighter
| life somewhere. which she was de-
| termined to find out; that she could
| not sacrifice her whole life to a shadow
of duty; that, in fact, she would 20
| forth free.
Free! The very word made her
heart beat quickly.
She went to the pleasaunce. If she
were interrupted there, it could be only
by her husband or Sir Raoul; there
was no fear of intruders. A sense of
relief came to her when she found
herself between the four high walls.
The blue sky smiled down upon her,
the languid air stirred family the scent
was like a reprieve to enter that quiet
| retreat and feel alone.

IN case OF war with Spain, Gage
Will always be the African in the wood
pile. He was put into the cabinet by
gold gamblers, re-organizers, stock
jobbers. bank syndicates, money sharp
ers. and usurers Of every name. nature
and description, on both sides Of the
Atlantic. He is located where he can
put his tentacles on the throat of the
nation and where he and his co-workers
can best suck the blood of taxpayers.
Every year, every month, every da,.
and every hour in every day, Mr.. Gage
will be working little jobs to make
bondholders rich and the people poor.
While our brave soldiers and marines
fight the foreign foe, the Hessians OF
Wall and Lombard streets will march
to the music of Shylocks band, and,
with daggers sharpened by avarice,
will cut away the financial mornings

that you tell no one. Lord Caraven
might be displeased if he heard of it,
1t was huniliating at first to her to
give charities unknown to her hus-
band, and then to beg that they might
be kept secret. The gratitude of the
poor woman in some measure cOmpen~
stated her, and made her feel less mis-
cradle. But, though Lord Caraven had
laughed and sneered and spoken an
grily, he had not forgotten his wife's
words. Not for the world would he
have owned it, or that they had made
the least impression on him-on the
contrary, he was, if possible, more
brusque and abrupt, quoted Blantyre
more frequently, and talked more than
ever of what he would do with the
poor tenants-yet her words haunted
him. They seemed to be written in
letters of fire, let him turn his eyes
whittier he would.
AS to Hildred, her humiliation had
been great. She was fast losing heart
and patience; her hope had died lin

he English People,"

The Chicago pulpit editorializer dis
courses largely of "the rapidly grow
ing predominancy of the English peo-
ple.' He quotes John Fiske and ]o-
siah Strong in support Of his asser-
tons that this race is in control OF
practically all the new land OF the
globe; it is the multiplying, populat-
ing stock; 1t is the fighting stock, too"
He declares that, united, it could. by
influence and arms, command peace the
world over.
The preacher of editorials would not
have been so very remote from the
truth if, instead of the English peo-
pie" and this race" he had said the
English speaking people. There is a
difference between the two. Even in
the British isles by no means all of
the English-speaking people are Eng
lish The Irish and the Scotch are not.
nor are the Welsh, most of whom
speak more or less English. Nor is
it quite correct to speak of the English
themselves as a race" They are a
product Of the mingling of different
races. There is no distinctly English
race. 1t is a mixture Of Saxons. Nor
mans. Celts and Latins that makes the
Englishman.
In other parts Of the world the Eng
disappearing people are English in a,
much less ratio than in Great Britain
In this hemisphere they are much more
largely of Irish, Scotch, German
Dutch, Scandinavian and French orig
in than they are of English origin. A

lish have given it the language and to
large extent the political institutions
and civil polity, other nationalities
have supplied most of the people. And
indeed our political organism is almost
as much Huguenot as English. Then

Fruit for the COmplexiOn,

We have always advocated the great
benefits to be derived from fruit-eat-
ing, and we cannot dwell too strongly
upon the Importance of making fruit
one of the principal articles of our dali
ly food. There is no doubt that each
year people grow to appreciate more
fully the value of it, and eat it, not
as luxury, but as staple article Of
diet. Fruits are n0urishjng, refresh
ing, appetizing, and purifying, and
consequently, have effect upon the
health, and, what to some is Of almost
equal Importance, the complexion. Yet
there are differences. Grapes and ap-
pies are highly nutritious. The form
er usually agree with the most delicate
persons, for they are easily digested.
Oranges, lines and lemons are Of
great value as means Of improving
the complexion. and they are especially
good if taken before breakfast. Ripe
peaches are easy of digestion, and are
fattening. Nothing is better to enrich
the blood than Strawberries, which
contain larger percentage of iron
than any other fruit Fruit with firm
flesh. like apples, cherries, or plums
should be thoroughly masticated, 9TH
erwise they are difficult to digest The
skin of raw fruit should never be eaten,
and before eating grapes, or any small
fruit, care should be taken to remove
all impurities by washing Never by
any means swallow grape-stones.

positive cruelties in your name. and

sanction of your name-a name that
ought to be honored and revered-I say
that great cruelties. acts of great in

How am | to know that It is true?"
he asked
Go yourself among the people and
ask. You will see men with large fam
lilies and eighteen shillings a week to
support them with, whose rents have
been raised one pound a year-their
rents. not their wages; those are the
laborers employed on your estate-the
hewers of wood and the drawers Of
water-the poorest, the most wretched
class of men in England.
THAT is not Blantyre's fault. You
would revolutionize society,"" he said,
interested in spite of himself by the
passion of her words.
II know it is not all Blantyre's fault.
If one of the children of a household
goes wrong, it is not the hired servant
who is to blame but the father and
mother. l know it is not Blantyres
fault; but at the great day. when the

He stood perfectly still, listening in
tently.
Have you finished, Hildred?" he
asked
YES" she replied. "All that I say
is in vain; therefore l will say no
more"
She did not wait to hear what reply
he would make-it would have been
better had she done so-she swept from
the room.
1t was a humiliation for her when
Mary Woodruff came again, to tell her
that she had failed in her mission.
that, even at her solicitation, the earl
had refused the little boon she asked.
She would have given much if she could
have shown even to the poor widow
some proof of his desire to please her
but she could not.
She was one of those people who
never defer disagreeable duty. She
sent that same day for the poor crea-
ture, who came trembling for the fate
of herself and her children. Lady
Caraven received her very kindly, but
entered at once into the matter.
II am sorry to tell you,' she said,
that l have failed. Lord Caraven
does not feel inclined to forego the
rent"
1T is not my lord cried the wo-
man. II know it is not. 1t is Mr..
Blantyre's fault; he said I should and
must pay. But I cannot, my lady;

Costa Rica,s Charming President

Washington is filled with notables, and
they continue to arrive from all parts OF the
world and on all possible missions. The
Young executive of Costa Rica is the chief
guest at this moment, and has been enter
tanned by the president, the cabinet, the
diplomatic corps and by many private peo.
ple who have some claim on his attention.
President Iglesias is young man of grace
full bearing and pleasing manners, and has
made an agreeable impression by his tact
and the lively appreciation of the hospital
ity shown him. President Iglesias expressed
a great admiration for the president, who
invariably gains the admiration of strangers
by the dignity of his bearing and the win
ming simplicity of his manners. Although
in constant demand socially, he has not
neglected the duties incumbent on tourists,
and has industriously visited all the places
of popular interest, accompanied usually
by some member of his staff. Fortunately,
he speaks English well, having learned it
when he visited this country fifteen years
ago, and his knowledge of American institu-
tons shows that he has kept informed Oh the
state of affairs in the UnitedStates.-Wash'
