Upon my word" said vandeleur, cit is
very ingenious and plausible and may turn
out of immense benefit to the world: but at
the present juncture cannot see money in
1t. and money is what madame wants and
means to have. To be frank with you, pro-
lessor, see no earthly reason in her want
ing to patent what you have just told me.
But Is there nothing else? Are you GER

Absolutely nothing" was his response.

He was interrupted by loud exclamation
from the young man.
You are wrong, after all. Mr.. Vande-

something else. Why should she not have
great idea In her head quite apart from
me and mine? All. this relieves nett
makes me happy. True. some one has tried
to murder me- but it is not madame-it is
not the lady whom Donna Marta loves
His eyes blazed with delight. He laughed
in feverfsh excitement.
After soothing him as best we could and
trying to get half promise that he would
not see either madame or the young lady
until we met again, we left him.

Portland place. Wit and beauty were to be
found in the gay throng, also wisdom, and
a fair sprinkling of some of the most bril-
liant brains in London. Men of note came
face to face with one in every direction
but both Vandeleur and l were seeking
one face and one alone
We found her at last, surrounded by
throng of admirers Madame was looking
her most brilliant and l might add her
youngest self. She was dressed in dazzling
white and silver, and whenever she moved
light seemed to be reflected at every point.
The brlliance of her golden hair was the
only distinct color about her. By her side
stood Donna Marta, a tall, pale girl, almost
too slender for absolute beauty. Her grace,
however was undeniable, and, although
have seen more lovely faces. this one had
a singular power of attraction. When

and when she slowly raised her luminous

acted as a perfect foil to the other each
seemed to bring out the rare fascination of
her companion.
Donna Marta glanced at me again; then
saw her bend toward Nine. Sara and
whisper something in her ear. A moment
later, to my amazement. the great lady and
the slender girl were at my side.

The professor started to his feet Not

he would not give way to his emotions,
he was trembling all over
You cannot mean Nine. Sara-you Will
change your mind-I have something to

Yes, we are to marry, and soon. Madame
is beside herself with bliss and Donna
Marta herself-Ah, I have no words to
speak what my feelings. are with regard
to her. Madame of ali people would be
the last to murder me- he added, wildly,
for she loves Donna Marta.

MAGNOLIA FLOWERS.
Largest That Grow on Trees - Some
Bloom Before Leaves Come Out.

FROM country Life In America
Magnolias are of peculiar interest be-
cause they have the largest flowers of any
trees in cultivation. This is not saving
that they are the showiest trees when in
blossom, for an apple tree, or a towering
dogwoed may completely cover itself with
blossoms. But the individual flower of such
trees are relatively small while a magnolia
blossom is often six inches and sometimes
foot in diameter.
Magnoilas have several points besides
the size of the flower which make them
most attractive. Certain kinds bloom he
fore the leaves in early spring; the flowers
of most sorts are deliciously fragrant: the
texture of the petals is notable. being
thick, waxy ana lustrous and the coloring
is exquisite. In many srecies the leaves are
or extraord nary size. some exceed ng yard
in length. In all. the foliage mass is lux
uriant and tropical-looking Some have shin
Ing leathery evergreen leaves-just the
thing for Christmas decorations Last
but not least. there are the curious cone
like fruits which make the trees so attrac-
tive in midsummer and fall. As they ripen
they take on rosy tints, and later they
open in a peculiar fashion and hang out
their bright re- seeds on slender elastic
threads.
