CHAPTER XIV.
A Day Of Pleasure.

It might or it might not have been the
result Of the conversation between the
two ladies-possibly it was accidental
but the next day Hester was escorted by
Capt. Tudor to visit LA Mezquita," the
renowned Mosque of Cordova. Discreet
ly chaperoned by Marietta and the cour-
Ter, they walked through labyrinthine
streets or ill-paved passages, along, the
Gale Jesus Maria, with high white
washed walls and windows many yards
above the ground, quite in the harem
style. The little sporting officer, who
cared not a straw for history or romance,
was amazed by his companions fund of
information. She knew far more about
Cordova than he, who had visited it re-
peatedly.

explained, as an apology for mentioning
such an out-of-date topic as the Visi-
goths who had preceded the Moors. Il
have. as you know, lived in very. very
quiet country place, and most of my
pleasure came from books. My father
disapproved Of novels, and SO l fell back
on history and poetry as my light litera-
ture."

confessed with a laugh. william the

'And she got left; yes, he married the
little French fiirt. Oh. remember that"
said Capt. Tudor, eagerly: The saw her

"Why, you are, becoming brilliant -
cried Hester. Il think he would have
escaped many troubles if he had married
the infanta. Henrietta was not a good
influence"
Perhaps the infanta might have been
worse. After the troubles you mention

From Harper's weekly
tourist in an out-of-the-way region OF
England put up one night at an amiable
old lady's cottage, the village inn being
full.
Now. the tourist was very deaf. which
fact he took pains to impress upon the
old lady, together with instructions to
wake him at a particular hour In the
morning.
On waking a good deal later than the
time appointed, he found that the amtable
old lady. with commendable regard for
propriety, had slipped under his door Q

Mrs Tudor. Miss Forde, maid and

Easter In Spain. Their trip occasioned

elder lady had relations over the border
and her movements were VIGOROUSLY err

When the ladies returned at O'Clock
1t was dusk and the bull fight was over
for the day. Hester found Marietta in
her room laying out her gown, dragging
at drawers and hunting in boxes, in a
condition Of repressed and feverish ex-
element.

her mistress: what fuss you are in

''Mademoiselle. 1 have been to the bull

had been vainly attempting to stem this

THE SIMPLE LIFE in FINLAND.

In the Summer All Glasses Spend
Most of the Time Out Of Doors.
In Finland everybody lives the
simple life in summer. They camp
out on islands, in the forests, and al
ways somewhere near the water, for
everybody swims and bathes. Almost
all classes sleep and eat al fresco, at
this time of year, and the town coun
ellis of the towns in this progressive
and altogether delightful little coun-
try provides public fireplaces and pub
lie bathing sheds in all places where
the working classes go in search Of
fresh air. @2.."
But the simple life is by no means
DULL with the frisky Firms. They
combine it with a surprising amount
of gayety. They eat, drink and are
very merry in their picturesque little
log cabins outside the cities.
When they are tired of bathing and
splashing, itkey dance, they sing, they
watch fireworks and practice gymnas-
tics; they all become like children
and are the very happiest, merriest,
most good natured, most easily pleas
ed and most healthy holiday makers
IN the world. ~ ...

heads Of Johnson's old friends, and
he held his vote and the vote the

Indefinitely the better man for the
