uration of the former one Miss Cynthia does
not really Gle, but she is told that she has only
year to live and the story grows out Of the
change that this information produces in her
character. The object of paternal and even an
cestral repression from babyhood she retains
in singular young oldmaidhood the form into
which she had been moulded by her departed
relatives. But with the knowledge brusquely
impaired by busy specialist, that her days are
numbered, the long pent-in desires and aspra-
tons of her girlhood break their bonds. She
neglects her missionary meeting to go picnick-
ing with some children and as the feeling that
nothing earthly really matters any longer takes
possession of her, she rises above neighborhood
criticism and gossip as much as If she had &C
tuaIly passed through the gates. With this
feeling comes a dawning comprehension to
which she is helped by the counsel of the now
married Miss Philura that God is not the
ayenging spirit she had ben accustomed to think
OF, but One who would take pleasure in the
innocent happiness of His children. Quite de-
nghtful the ways and the manner in which

Miss Kingsley shows how the greater freedom
that this belief gives to the life and generous
impulses of Miss Cynthia brings her not only
the happiness which she desires, but the life
which she had laid aside, as well as the love
which she longed for and needed. Quaint and
almost grotesque some of the incidents
of the story, 1t is convincing enough in its
spirit IL not In it's theology, which at least has
a better New Testament basis than the seven
tenth century CaIvinism against which it is a
protest. There is delicious touch of humor in
the CONSERVATION OF the townsfolk when Miss
Cynthia decides to give away all the ponderous
household effects that had aided in depressing
her spirits, and in her pleasure in discover
ing that the antique mahogany furniture in the
attic with which she had resolved to make shift
to replace them was far more tasteful and valu
able.

SEA WALLS.

Mr. w h Wheeler in his History Of the Fens

that such as having walls or banks near unto
the sea do suffer the same to decay, after con-
venient admonition, whereby the water enteretn

If Nelson was not author he at least en-
riched the language with one great, though d.
versely reported phrase; and in this year of his
centenary any new story about him claims our
attention Here is which the writer of these
lines believes to be hitherto imprinted Nelson
was one day talking to Mrs. Swinburne, of
Hamsterly, and the conversation turned on
Frenchmen. 81 never see a Frenchman. Mrs.
Swinburne" said Nelson, without shivering
from head to foot" ANY one who has seen

from falling on familiar enemy will appreci-
ate the feeling which made Nelson shiver.
