Florabel was ‘a dependent of her step- father, Squire Pemberion. His daughters haie Florabel, and when the Squire dies, order her out of the old home. Max Forrester a rich young man marries her and introduces her into his family the members of which disapprove of his mar~ tinge, as they wanted him to marry Miss Clavering, an heiress,
CHAPTER III--(Contiaued.)
“hd could have hélped admiring the fair, young, dimpled face, framed in its sheen of golden hair, the bright hazel eyes, and the slim, girlish form, draped in white silk and billowy lace, through which the beautiful should- ers and round, white arms gleamed like ivory. She was the fairest pic- ture of youth and beauty under the sun.
‘“*“You are simply perfection, my darling,’’ cried the young husband, enthusiastically. ‘‘I am proud of you,’’ he declared, as he took her hand and led her down the broad stairway toward the lighted drawing- rooii.
Inez Clavering watched eagerly and intently for her appearance, a strange smile curving her lips, and a strange light in her restless black eyes. The interior of the mansion was one blaze of light and warmth. The large chandeliers of the drawing- room poured down a flood of light on
the elegant room and its occupants. The magnificent parlors beyond were one mass of blooms. The rooms, | with their throngs of guests, were grand enough to strike awe to one not used to elegant surroundings. Inez Clavering calculated that all
this would produce that effect upon Max’s young wife.
‘*She will be surprised, dazzled and confused,’’ thought that clever young lady. ‘‘Then she is quite sure to be awkward, and the first impression she makes upon her husband’s friends will be a bad one.”’
Inez Clavering had made this re- solve. She had whispered no vow of vengeance to herelf. She had not, even to her own self, whispered the word ‘‘revenge.’’ None the less skill- fully had she laid her plans.
Nothing kills love like ridicule. And Inez said to herself that, under the guise of friendship, she would be merciless to the fair young bride who had stepped between her and the for- tune which should have been hers, as well as the love of handsome Max Forrester.
When her eyes had first vested on :
throb shot She realized that man with all
his portrait, a strange through her heart. she could love such a her soul.
Yes, she would be merciless te the girl, who had won him from her. She would never.spare her. She would lay traps to draw out her want of cul- ture, her want of worldly knowledge.
‘*Max Forrester will soon tire of his village love—a girl who as noth- ing but a pretty fece—and we shall see what will happen next.’’
There was a slight murmur among the guests, and, raising her eyes, she saw Max Forrester entering the room, leading his bride by the hand.

It was a moment of intense nery- ousness to Florabel. as she faced the

Accompanied by Indigestion and Constipation cured by Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills
m Bath, Ont., comes the particulars of ’ pee ore cure effected by Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills. Mr, fos. Gardiner was for ffily years the victim of indigestion, con- stipation, and violent headaches. Nothing seemed to have the desired effect until he be- an the use of Dr. Chases’s Kidney-Liveer
‘lis, and they effected a complete cure. Mr. Gardiner writes :
‘* have been troubled fer over ferty years @ith indigestion and constipation, would go for two weeks at a time. At intervals I would be taken with violent: headaches. I spent dollars and dollars in vain, and was aay ot vised to use Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills, and must say that they are the only remedy that gave me permanent relief.

hear her beart beat, and the slight weight leaning upon his arm trem- bled.
‘‘Ah! there is Miss Clavering, Max,’’ she said. ‘‘Take me up to her first; I have something to say to her.’’
While the guests were passing for- ward, she whispered to Inez:
**Please stand beside me; I—I—al- ways feel so timid among strang- ers.’’
‘*Florabel is quite a child, Miss Clavering,’’ said Max, laughing. ‘*This is a trying ordeal for her.’’
Do as she would, Inez Clavering could not repress the sarcastic smile that curled her beautiful lips.
‘‘Mrs. Forrester does me honor,’’ she said.
Max laughed again.
‘*What a society speech, Miss Clav- ering,’’ he said. ‘*You will frighten my little wife.’’
Florabel looked from one to the other with some trepidation.
‘*]—I—hope [ have not said an;- thing wrong,’’ she stammered, her face blushing crimson.
For the first time since his mar- riage a frown of apnoyance marred the beauty of Max’s face as he looked at his young wife and wondered whither the simple. natural mapper that he had always thought so charm- ing, was not, after all, a sad defect.
‘*Wrong? Oh, no, certainly not,’’ laughed Miss Clavering. ‘‘I shall stand beside you, Mrs. Forrester, if you like.’’
The girl looked up at her sudden, half-‘4yistful glance.
‘Do not call mo Mrs. name is Florabei.”’
‘‘T must try to remember it,’’ re- turned Inez

The style of conversation annoyed Max, and ke saw a nervous, distressed expression on kis wife’s face. From the bottom of his heart he wished
that there hal been no wedding recep- tion or that it was all over.
Beautiful little Florabel was accustomed to society, and, to her own words, she knew nothing of the ways of fine ladies. Poor child! She was utierly ignorant of the man- ners and habits and custom of class with whom for the future she had to live.
These deficiences had not been noticed during those few brief weeks of wooing. The time was coming when they could no longer be hid- den.
For years afterward Florabel had but a confused idea of how that recep- tion progressed.
She did not hear the murmrr of admiration that greeted her. stood in the midst of that elegant as- semblage confused and embarrassed. Her sweet face flushed and paled; the hand that the white trembled.
Inez Clavering sneered, and one or two were malicious enough to whisp- er witiicisms about ‘‘country man- ers and bad taste.’’ But many hearts warmed there to the fair, sweet face, and gentle, timid manners.
As the evening wore on Florabel be- came physically fatigued and hausted; it over-taxed her The chances are that she would have gone through the evening successfully had it not been for a pitiful incident that occurred.
The reception had ended in a grand ball, and during the progress of one of the quadrilles Max had sought her, saying hurridly:
‘‘Come into the conservatory a mo- ment, darling I have something to say to you.’’
As they reached the green arched entrance Max was called away.
“Sit down by the fountain and wait for me, darling,’’ he said. ‘‘I will be with you almost directly.’’
Florabel sat’ down on the rustic bench beside the fountain, giving her- self up to her own thoughts until Max should return to her.
‘‘T am not sure that I shall like this kind of life,’ she murmured, with a sigh, as she bent over the perfumed water. ‘‘And, oh!’’ with a little childish sob ‘‘I almost wish Max had been poor, then we would never have had all this to go through. How will it all end?’’
Had she but known! It was well that the dark, pitiful future which a- waited her was as yet unknown!
‘‘Oh, how I wish—”’
The thought was never finished in her mind, for at that instant two young and beautiful ladies entered

‘‘T thought,’’ replied the other lady, ‘‘when I heard that Inez Clav- ering was visiting here it would surely end in a wedding; she is so suited to him.’’
They passed on. Every word they had uttered fell like chill drops of hail on the heart of the girl, who sat white-faced and motionless under the green, drcoping palms. A passionate cry Tose to her lips, and she clasped her little hands so tightly together that her shining rings cut into the tender flesh, but she did not feel the pain of them.
‘‘Why did they think Miss Claver- ing more suited to be Max’s wife than she?’’ she wondered, bitterly.
How long she sat there, lost in deep reverie, she never knew. The sound of the music brought her to a reali- cation that time was passing. She must have been sitting there, away from her guests, quite half an hour.
What had detained Max? Why had he not returned?
