AN ILL MATED PAIR.
Wide Apart In Temperament Wers
Thomas and Jane Carlyle.

Wide Apart In Temperament Were
Thomas and Jane Carlyle.
That the Carlyles were an i'll assort-
ed couple no one could deny. She was
highly strung. nervous woman, very
quick, able and impatient, disappoint-
ed with her married life and her posi-
ton, jealous of the admiration which
Carlyle received at the hands of all
his admirers, especially of one or two
women. whom she found very unsym-
pathetic.
That Carlyle adored her there is lit
tie doubt. He loved her with all the
rough, passionate power of his nature.
but he was peasant in manner and
character and lacking in all the little
outward signs of devotion and affec.
ton which so many women exact and
the absence of which they resent most
bitterly.
Mrs. Carlyle found herself tied to an
irritable genius who. sensitive at every
point, deeply devoted to her. but abso.
lutely incapable of transiating that
love into the language which she
craved and lhnged for. ] remember
her once saying to me in a bitter way.
my dear, whatever you do, never
marry a philosopher" and that was
the key to the enigma-the woman al
ways hungering for proofs of the de
votion in which the whole of her daily
life was wanting.-From Lady st. He.

OLD LONDON LEGEND.
The Church That Stands In the Field
Of Forty Footsteps.

OF Forty Footsteps.
The church in woburn square Lon
don. Is said to occupy the site of the
Field of Forty Footsteps" to which
a tragic legend attaches. The story
dates from the days of Monmouth's
rebellion. According to the version
given in Mr.. j. S. Ogilvy's Relics and
Memorials of London Town" two
brothers fell in love with a woman who.
either from callous vanity or fearing
reprisals from the unsuccessful suitor,
would not say which was to be the
favored swain, suggesting that they
should fight a duel and TO the victor
she would give her charms. They
came from the town TO this suburban
field. The woman calmly sat down to
wait. judging from the number of foot
prints, when one of the brothers fell
dead. and as the victor approached
she held out her arms TO greet him.
when. with sudden revulsion of feel
ing for his brothers death. he slew her
as she stood. and, turning the weapon.
he drove II through his own heart. So
they were found stiff in death with
the footprints stamped in the wet
clay, where they remained indelible
through summer heat and winter
frost; no green thing would grow,
nor any man build himself a dwelling
there. Streets were erected all round,
but it was not until the nineteenth
century that men took heart of grace
and built a church there when the
conservation of the ground rolled back
the curse and the memory of the leg
end grew faint and faded away.
