that Uncle Willlam doesn't approve of our engagement, 60 he ia not likely to be kind!'’ pleaded poor Alice. Indeed, knowing what I knew, I did not think he was, and I was very much afr that we should have

great difficulty in persuading her to give Egbert up, whatever we might succeed in proving against him. For, like many

other sweet and apparently yielding women, Alice could be even more ob- stinate than people of stronger judgment.

We found Mr. Jones in his dressing gown, writing in an arm chair by the window. He looked very ill, and In re- ply to our reproashes for getting np at all, he said, with a weary sort of smile, that he was not coins to turn invalid until he was forced to do so. But he consented to our sending for a doctor, although he had peremptorily refused to let us communicate with his wife.

It was with manifest reluctance that

lice introduced the subject of Egbert and his appealing letter. Mr. Jones and I exchanged glances. In mine I tried to convey a warning to him to deal gently with her; but it was not needed. He ad- dressed her in the very gentlest tones. ‘‘My dear girl,’’ he said, while the harassed look came again strongly into his face, ‘‘you put me into a very difficult position. I don’t deny that I have heard certain reports of Egbert which I should like to have explained before matters go any further between you. I therefore recommend—indeed I beg you—to let things rest as they are until Iam able to got about again.’’

‘*But he says he shall go away! Alice, tearfully.

‘‘Don't be afraid. He'll not go far, with such a tender pair of blue eyes look- ing cut for him,’’ answered her uncle, reassuringly. But Alice was not easy to convinee. She very soon made an excuse to leave the room, saying she must send for the doctor, adding a little fretful protest below her breath, that she was not allowed to do as ehe liked in her own house. I supposed that she had gone off to write to Egbert. Mr. Jones looked grave and worried. ‘‘Do you think she sends him money,’ be asked, abruptly, after a short pause, when she had left the room.

Oh, Mr. Jones, surely not! He could ever have sunk so low as that!’’ But wyer, whose experience of human nature was both more extensive and less favorable than mine, shook his head.

‘‘There are no depths that I know of, to which a man badly in want of meney may not sink,’’ he said, with conviction. ‘* Alice has a large balance at her bank- er’s that she can draw upon atany time. It was, I vonsider, the most foolish of my brother Fred's provisions for her. The temptation may have been too strong for young Lloyd. Alice is as open-hearted as the snn.”’

‘Yes, that is true,’’ said I, uneasily. ‘‘Now that I have a chance of speaking to you alone, Mr. Jones, I want to ask you a question about last night.

“I met Higgins, the watchman, when I left your room. He was passing in through the door that leads to the works, and I am sure I heard his laugh up above our heads —and I glanced at the ventilator—when we came and found you here. Do you think it was he who played all those tricks on Alice? Of course at somebody else's instigation.’’ At my first mention of this subject Mr. Jones had grown livid; and I would have stopped, perceiving my indiscretion, but that he made me a sign to go on. “I can’t tell,’’ he said. ‘‘I have not seen the man yet, you know. When I do, I dare say, I shall be able to make a fairly good guess as to whether the fellow is honest or not.’”’

‘‘And you will be able to get the truth out of him about the man I saw, whom he declares to be a detective. I believe if we got hold of him the whole mystery would be cleared up—about the woman and ali. I don’t like the look of that woman a bit, and I don’t believe half she says. The way to get to the truth, as far as she is concerned, would be to bring her face to face with Egbert Lioyd.”’

Mr. Jones had no time to reply to this suggestion, as at that moment Mrs. Ellis herself knocked at the door and brought in the doctor, whose brougham we had seen come up theavenue. He did not stay very long. He declared that his patient was suffering from the effects of mental overstrain and nervous shock, and advised him to give up all thoughts of business fora time, and if possible to go away for a thorough change of cli- mate. ‘‘ You are thoroughly run down,’’ he pronounced, as he rose to go. ‘‘Just now I noticed that the mere sight of a person crossing the garden path startled you and made you change color.”’

Mr. Jones, whose eye had been wan- dering out of the window with a strange and eager glance, turned quickly to the doctor. ‘‘Oh no; surely you are exagger- ating my weakness,’’ he said, witha laugh. But even while the doctor was shaking his hand in farewell, Mr. Jones’ restless eyes were again glancing search- ingly cut of the window. I had per- ceived the cause, and it troubled me as rauch as it did him. Treading cautiously in and out among the trees and shrubs, haunting the place as she had haunted it the day before, was the mysterious woman with the gray-green eyes, who had given her name as Fertha Stanton,

I left the room with the doctor, deter- mined to approach the woman myself. But either she did not wish to be ap- proached, or she had retreated into some corner whence she could not see me, for I wandered about the garden for nearly half an hour without catching another glimpse of her. Giving up the search at last I left the grounds and entered the brewery yard and passed into the works, Higgins would be away at his lodgings at this time, I knew; which was all the better for my investigations. I ran up the iron staircase, and passed through the long store rooms to the attics above the house. I had climbed to the top of the ladder when I caught sight of a row of objects hanging in the air before me which solved one part of the mystery of the tricks played upon Alice, These were the doad bodies of eight large owls, which were suspended from side to side of the attlo by a cord which passed round their necks. I shuddered as I remembered the horrible effect their weird cries and flutterings had had upop me, upon poor Alice, and even upon a cool-headed law- yer like Mr. Jones. Then I heaved a sigh of rolief, for this was ocular demonstra- tion that the trick had been played for the last time. I crept down the ladder again with my teeth chattering although it was a hot summer day. The thought that there was only one person that I could confide in and that he was so ill that it was selfish to trouble him, gave me a sickening feeling of responsibility. When I got back to the house I was more sorry than surprised to find Alice's man-

ner changed toward me. She haa oon- ceived the idea that I shared Mr, Jones’ distrust of Egbert, and was not likely to ayimpathize with her reviving feelings of affection toward him. So the day passed very uncomfortably, Alice not confiding to me whether she had ap- swored Egbert’s letter. She was too much annoyed with her uncle to do more than pay him another fleeting visit, while Mra. Eliis and I spent the whole after- noon with him, reading the papers and trying to distract his thoughts by lively conversation,

I was sorry to find, when tea was brought in, that Alice’s indignation was still too warm to let her join us, I saw nothing of her for the next two hours, and then, as the first bell had rung for dinner I asked Anna, whom I met no the stairs, what had become of her mis- tress.

“She went out into the grounds, ma'am, about half an hour ago,’’ said the maid, in the distant tone with which she still emphasized her disapproval of the subterfuge by which I had at first gained a footing in the house.

**I don’t think she will be in todinner.”’

‘*Not in to dinner?’’ I echoed in vague alarm. ‘Did she say she was going out, then?’’

I think Anna was glad to impart to me a piece of intelligence which evident- ly caused me aneasiness.

“She didn't say she was going out, but she was talking for sometime toa lady on the river path, and then they went off togetner in one of our private boats !’’

“A lady! A tall lady in a black and white check silk dress?’’ I asked, unable to hide my agitation.

‘* Yes, ma’am,’’ answered Anna, ‘‘and I think Miss Clarke must have meant to go out, for she sent me a little while ago to get change for a cheque for her.’’

‘A cheque?’ I echoed, faintly, ‘‘for how much?”’

‘“‘Twenty pounds, ma’am.’’

I turned away without another word, too sick at heart to say more, It seemed to me that my silly, obstinate, generous- hearted girl was giving herself into the hands of the spoiler, and was I too fan- ciful in fearing absolute physical danger from the companionship she had so rash- ly chosen?

“I was sick for three years,” says James Simpson, of Newcomb Mills. “I tried various alleged patent cures and several boxes of a certain pill which has been greatly cracked up. 1 got no re- lief.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7 i896,

make Your Workmen Comfortable,

A manufacturer in gossiping about the best ways about handling work- men, says that the nature of the floor of the shop has a great deal to do with the amount of work that is got out of the operative staff. He was onc struck by the difference in the apparent activity of two sets of men working on similar jobs at the vise in two rooms of alarge shop. One was in an old building and the other was in one of recent construction. In the former, the men stood easily and naturally at their work, and showed no symptoms of a hankering for a seat on the bench, while in the latter the men were shift- ivg their weight from one foot to the other, throwing one leg upon the bench at every opportunity, and showing every evidence of foot fatigue. The superintendent guessed that the differ- ence was due to the floors upon which the two gangs of men were standing. In the old shop the floor was of wood, springy to a certain extent, and a poor conductor of heat. Inthe new shop it was of the most beautiful concrete, au excellent conductor of heat from the feet of the workmen, and as unyielding as granite rock. So the benches in the new shop were raised a couple of inch- es, aid each man was given a platform of wood that rested on two cross-pieces at the end, and hada slight spring to it. The foot weariness disappeared al- most at once, and no further troubl was experienced. Which shows that the prettiest floor is not always the best for the workmen.

Farmer Versus Wage-getter.

If cheap money benefits the farmer, it might also benefit the firms or cor- porations largely employing labor, ex- cept where there isa heavy gold in- debtedness to care for. But the wage- earner would seem to have everything to lose and nothing to gain from cheap money. All history goes to show that wages do not rise accordingly as the purchasing power of money falls. Thus, if general prices and the cost of the workingman’s living should advance a hundred per cent., a man who had been earning two dollars a day ought in theory to receive four dollars; but in fact it would bea considerable time before his wages would rise even as high as three dollars. Itis, therefore, to the interest of the regular wage- earner that the full purchasing power ef money shall be maintained. This is further true for the added reason that a working-man’s savings ure in- vested in forms expressed by precise money terms; anda thousand dollars saved in good money would still be ouly a thousand dollars, even if money became cheap and bad. The farmer, on the contrary, has his accumulations invested in land and its improvements; and high prices for what the farmer has to sell, due toa cheapening of the value of the dollar, will at once givea higher nominal value to his estate. The position of the farmer would there- fore seem to be just the reverse of the working-man’s. The free-silver move- ment is essentially an agrarian move- ment. Agriculture has been in a de- pressed condition, due to extremely low prices, throughout America and Europe, for a number of years. A re- turn of high prices is the one thing that the farmers deem essential; and they now see no way to secure higher prices except through legislation to re- duce the purchasing power of the dol- lar. Itis not silver for its own sake thatthe farmers desire. but silver for the sake of higher prices,—in short, cheaper money. They are for free sil- ver this year because free silver is the only thingin sight that promises to make a given amount of farm produce bring them a considerably larger num- number of dollars then it will at pre- sent bring-—From ‘The Progress of the world,” in September Review of Reviews,

Character Will Come Out.

No one éan hide his true self. He will show, at some time, and in some way, whom he serves. His Master's image will be visible in his words, spirit, and activities. His life is an open letter. Men will read and form their opinion of its origin and charac- teristics. ‘‘No man can serve two masters; for either he will love one, or hate the other.” Moments will arise when we will cleave to the one, and forsake the other. Forces are at work which will make manifest his resemb- lance to the one and lead to his repudi- ation of the other. Sooner or later he will attest himself either a Christian or a. worldling—either a servant of Christ or a child of the devil. There is no use trying to be neutral. Sucha thing is an impossibility. The only right and manly thing for us to do is to be open, decided, and consistent Christians.

“This Indenture.”

The phrase ‘‘thisindgnture, which is stillfrequently used in written con- tracts, is probably unintelligible to most persons, since noone now “‘in- dents.” Indenting a deed or contract consisted in cutting a zigzag line across the top of the document from one side to the other. All English deeds were formerly written in duplicate upon the same kind of parchment and separated by cutting them apart with a knife in the zigzag manner referred to. One of these instruments was given to each party named, and the fact that the two documents would exactly join each other was evidence of their genuine- ness. Butler, inhis verses on Human Learning, speaks of two persons:-— Whose tempers, inclinations, sense and

wit Like two indentures did agree to fit.

ASBESTOS DECORATIONS.

Many Handsome Ceiling Designs in the Inflammable Material.

Hitherto that invaluable substance asbestos was familiar to us only inthe grate of the gas stove. Its advantages in that direction are undoubted, but there are a thousand and one other uses to which it may be put.

Asbestos can be reduced to a pulp, and from it can be made a very good quality of writing paper, invaluable for deeds, records, charters and such things as must be kept for many years. Heavy cardboard is also made. Boxes made from cardboard can be used for the preservation from iire of valuable papers.

One of the last applications of asbes- tos is to the manufacture of wall- paper. This does away with the tedious lathing and plastering. One coat of the asbestos plaster laid on the bricks

themselves and smoothed over will give a smooth, hard wall, throagh

which neither cold nor heat can pene- trate.

Decorations for ceilings are also made of asbestos. Many designs aro now obtainable. They are found in

many large ocean steamships, where it is desirable to secure beauty with im- munity from fire.
