There was only one living creature who
Mad dared to tell him to his face that the
young man who had gone from his home
an outcast had been sacrificed through
him and by him. That person was An
fsnil Marchmont, the girl whom Gerald
Tenby had loved ever since he had grown
Do manhood. And now Antonio was com
ing to London-coming into the house Of
zine one woman whom he might call an
intimate friend.
What would be the outcome of this?
Had he been a stranger he might have
faughed at the possibility of a girl doing
bin any harm but Gerald renby never
laughed when he thought of Antonio. In
deed, there were moments when he had d
Fseling of cold fear upon him, when his
quick brain carried him into the future,
and showed him a probable working out
at vengeance time of unutterable con-
fusion for himself, and triumph for the
man who had been driven from his faith

en- its walls.
When such n vision came to Gerald
Tenby he shivered, and it was some time

When she found herself alone in her
room the night of her arrival in London,
Antonio Marchmont knelt by the open
window and looked across the tops of the
houses to She clear sky studded with stars.
She had a strange sensation upon her
ms she knelt there. 1t seemed to her as
II she had drawn a little nearer to the
one she sought; as If, having made the
effort and turned herself away from the
tranquility and sorrow of her home, she
had advanced a distinct step on the road
toward the fulfllment of that task which
was the one motive of her life.
Where are you, Hubert?" the girl
whispered to herself. "Oh! If my eyes
could only pierce through the world and
zoe you now il only 1 could let you
knew that there is one creature who be-
jIieve< in you, and loves you, and will

envy has triumphed over you! Shall I
ever see you again, Hubert? Shall /

She dropped her face into ner hands,

t&en slowly she drew herself way from

pared TO 30 to rest.

GAVE THE RIGHT ANSWER.
How the Late John Hay Displayed
His Aptitude for the
Law,

When the ate Secretary Hay applied
for admission to the bar at Illinois he was
summoned to appear before a committee
of prominent Chicago lawyers to be ex-
amined as to his qualifications, relates the
American Spectator.
He went to the place appointed and
found the committee assembled; but for
a long time they took no notice of the
young candidate, but continued to talk Wig.
orously together on various subjects. At
last one of the lawyers, turning to him,
said:
"Mr. Hay, what would you do if a client
should come to you with such a case as
this?" and he proceeded to describe very
deliberately a complicated legal case.
II should ask for a retaining fee of $780,
promptly replied Mr.. Hay, "and tell hin
to call tomorrow"
Mr.. Hay, you are admitted" said the
gentleman, and with a hearty laugh from
all present the proceedings closed.

Miss Lucretia Potter sprang from
her chair and hurried nearer the win

glasses, and bringing the "far-otfs"
down from the top of nor head.
North of the low brick house
stretched the village cemetery, and
over the picket fence, from the GENE
terry side, leaned a tall man with irony
grey beard, in close conversation with
a slender oma OF the garden side,
whose head and face were concealed
by a huge s%unbonnet. Presently they
separated and she came slowly toward
the house, pausing to s~traighten a
stalk of sweet-william which leaned
wei the narrow path. When she en-
tered the sitting-room Miss Lucretia
was industriously piecing patchwork
by her own special window.
"That you, Maria?" she said, with
out looking up. Maria assented. As
she removed her sunbonnet you saw
that her hair was glossy black and hel
complexion clear. 1t was the common
opinion in Pineville that Maria Pot

FACTS ABOUT STAMPS.

where are Ancash, Antofagasta, Apuri-

1t requires more than 40 large al

"Last year, after having my little girl

an obstinate case of eczema, | resorted to
the Cuticura Remedies, and was SO well
pleased with the almost instantaneous
relief afforded that we discarded the physi-
clans prescription and relied entirely on
the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and
Cuticura Pills. When we commenced with
the Cuticura Remedies her feet and limbs
were covered with running sores. In
about six weeks we had her completely
well, and there has been no recurrence Of
the trouble. We find that the Cuticura
