however, to link my with the baron's, there

The devotion of the distinguished visitor continued
without developing any exciting details until toward
the end of the season. when there appeared in
for a very short visit American then resi-
dent in Italy, papal countess, whose hobby

upon New York each year, victimizing the popuace

the performance. During the intermission we ven

unique, is worthy of chronicle in view of the events
that followed.

CHAPTER XVIII

Nurse Meyrick was sleeping on a couch
in the dressing room. 1t had been placed
SO near the dor of communication that
she had a full view of her patient. He
had just sunk into a tranquil doze, and
she had followed his example, when a
faint sound, like an opening door, reused
her, and moment after she caught a
glimpse of a white-robed figure with long,
fair hair. A young girl in a loose dress
ing gown was standing by Mr.. Merle's
bed. Nurse Meyrick's quick eyes discern
ed that one arm was bandaged and in
splints. 1t must be the young lady, she
thought, who had been injured in the ac-
cident; perhaps she was light headed.
The next minute she touched her softly.
"Come. my dear, come" she said coax
ingly; you ought not to be out of your
bed at this time of night let me help YOU
back. there's dear young lady," for Mis-
sizes wide, feverish eyes alarmed her.

You must not stay" she whispered,
not daring to raise her voice; your feet
are bare, and you look as bad as possible.
Come, my dear, let me carry you back to
your room; it will scare your father to
see you standing there"
NO, no." returned Missile, shrinking
still more; II must stay with papa. Why
does he look so pale, and lie so still? Is he
dead? No one told me he was dead.
Papa " she cried out, for she was be-
wlldered by the dim light and her own
feverish fancies. Speak to me only one
word, just to tell me you are alive
oh, hush.' exclaimed the nurse; but
she was too late. Mr.. Merle woke up
but in his weak condition his daughters
presence did not seem to startle him.

LOST HOPE.

Alas for the man who never sees
The stars shine through his cypress trees
Who, hopeless, lays his dead away,
Nor looks to see the breaking day
Across the mournful marbles play!
Who hath not learned, in hours of faith,
The truth to flesh and sense unknown,
That life is ever lord of death,
And love can never lose it's own.
