Then she led her out on the stage, and behind a huge pillar of roses which was to open slowly, and the beautiful princess of the play was to trip gayly forth from the deep crim- eon heart of a rose, as the curtain went slowly up, and the leader of the orchestra reached the last bar of the overture. \"Courage; you are fairly radiant!\" whispered Miss Rosinel's maid, as she darted back behind the scenes, just in, time to prevent herself from being discovered. The silver bell tinkled softly; the, orchestra bent to their task^ the curtain went up with a silken rustling rush; the pillar of roses parted, and out of the crimson heart of the dew-spangled flower the princess stepped timidly forth into the broad glittering glare of the white calcium lights and the full gaze of the vast audience that was packed to the very doors of the theatre. v The orchestra leader flourished his \"baton\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd-in\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdhis-\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdwhite=kiddacLJb,ai*4i_ There was a burst of bewildering, crashing music, but it did not drown out the thundering burst of applause that shook the house from pit to dome. CHAPTER XXVII. We must now return to the night upon which we left Mark Forrester struggling alone, and at the mercy of tho wild waves of the bay, into which he had so recklessly plunged, holding Helena clasped closely in his arms. For an Instant his clinging hold relaxed\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand In that instant a huge wave bore her from him. With an energy born of desperation he struck out after the dark floating form, which eluded him, and then sunk. And In tho terror of the moment reason came back to him with a terrible shock, and ho realized all too plainly whnt he had done. A man's .hoarse, wild, despairing cry broke over tho dashing waves. Useless, useless; ho could not Bavo her!\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand ho struck out blindly (or tho shore\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdlittle caring whether he reached it or not. Ho. heard tho crjes of the men Jn the life-boat, but lio heeded them not. Ho did not caro to bo rescued, yet go reached tbe shore almost in sptlo of himself. It was past midnight when he opened tho door of 1'rudonco's apnrt- monts, and staggered blindly into her presence\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdflinging himself hoavily down upon a-'i'halr, As liiH sister's eyes fell upon libn flho gave a piercing shriek and flow to IiIh aide. \"Oh, Mark, my brother, my darling brother I\" sho walled, falling upon her knees boforo lilm, nnd clasping her hands about his arm. \"Oh, what Ih tlio nial tor, my brother?\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdIn the ono short hour slnco you left mo your hair hns turned kiumv whiitt, Whero Ih Helena Heutln'iiir\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdthe girl wlios.i fatal bounty nnil heurt i>f hi ono hns tloim lliis wrong In vim'' Vmi followed \\\\or, Murk\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffddid sho em-upo ynu?

I should expect to see the green, glassy waves part, and my darling's white face rise up between them, gazing at me with dark, horrified', beseeching eyes, sea-weed tangled in her brown, glossy curls and around her lovely face,\" he muttered, incoherently. Yet low as the words had been breathed, Prudence's quick ear caught them. A death-like chill clutched her at} the heart, and something like the truth came to her. Yet she dared not question him\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdsomi*- thing in his white, set, haggard face forbade that. \"Ah, Mark, if we had but the money to go, dear,\" she sighed. Then she placed her hands on his shoulders looking into his sorrow-dazed eyes, so pitifully changed in one short hour. \"Eleanor Kirkwood would gladly advance \\ us the required amount,\" she said, steadily, \"because she loves you so w-j-11, my poor Mark.\" And she continued, wistfully: \"A lady friend of Eleanor's has written her from this city urging her to take a trip to Europe with her, and Eleanor writes me that she has accepted, and she sails next week with her friend, Mrs. Vivian Cameran, of Cameron Hall.\" for London, England, and begs me to accompany them. Come with us, Mark,\" she urged, \"and begin life anew over the water, where your brilliant talent will be appreciated, and fame awaits you.\" To her great surprise he-,, acquiesced readily. He would go to England with her, but not one penny of Elear\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffder Kirkwood's money would he accept. -~A-nd--thusi~by--the~strange_machina=,! tions of fate most unkind, one week later, Misss Kirkwood, Vivian Cameron, Mark and his sister, were journeying toward London. Vivian Cameron's reason for this trip was quite apparent-. In the society jottings of one of the local journals she had read the announcement that Mr. Frederick Castleton, son of the late well-known manufacturer of that name\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdBaltimore-\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdhad taken up his quarters for the season at tho Hotel Brunswick, London, England. Vivian had clipped out the paragraph' with a strange flush on her cheeks. \"Why shouldn't I go to London, too?\" she soliloquized, tapping her daintily slippered foot on the velvet henrth-rug. \"A familiar face is doubly welcome when one is away from homo nnd in a land ot strangers. I shall mako him think that the meeting is wholly accidental. He must novor know that it is premeditated, and that I havo followed him to England because life without him is lntoloro.blo, Oh, my heart!\" sho cried, pressing her hands tightly together. \"Your ovory, passionate throb has been for Frederick. Ah, Hoavon! give mo this lovo, or give me death!\" Sho had mado every effort that wealth could command to discover Helena's whereabouts, thnt slm might bo ablo to koop a strict watch upon her movements, proventlng, nt any cost, a reconciliation between tin* ostrangod lovers, who had purled so strangely et tho altar. Yot evory effort had proved unavailing. The girl seemed ns utterlv lost to tho world as though tho ninth had dividod and swnllowid hor. \"A reconciliation betw >vn tint Iny- crn was not probable now,\" hIio told horsi'lfi oxulia-nily, 'Ti'hlo, that rruol- ost and most formidable, of nil weapons, will keep the ono from searching for tho other.

' 1 can soo that yeu nave not ceased thinKing yet or j that miserable girl who eloped with your rival. You should tear her image from your heart, and trample her memory under feet by finding another love.\" Frederick held up his white hand with a proud gesture, a proud flush dyeing for an instant his handsome Saxon face. \"Hush, Vivian!\" he cried, In a pained voice; \"do not speak of Helena in that way. She has broken my heart, dragged my pride into the dust; but, Heaven help me, I love her yet, with all her faults and fickleness, a thousand times better than I ever could love another.\" And v he quoted sadly: \" 'Oh, what was love made for, if 'tis not the same Through gladness and sunshine, through sorrow and shame? I know not, I care not, if guilt's in my heart, 1 know that I love thee wherever thou art.' \" yivlan bit her crimson Up hard to keep back the cry of rage that sprung to them. Would he never forget the beautiful face that had won him from her? \"Such a yearning, passionate love? as hers must win love in, aftturn.\" She told herself she would never give up the hope of winning him as long as he was free and single. She would devote her life to that one aim. \"Won't you join us at the opera this evening, Frederick?\" said Vivian at parting. \"The wonderful little Rosinel is advertised to sing, I see by the papers, and Miss Kirkwood, one of the ladies of our party, has expressed a desire to go. Do accompany us, Frederick.\" Thus directly appealed to, he could not, out ot common courtesy, refuse her, and it was settled that he should secure tickets for the grand opening opera that evening. It was a genuine surprise to both Frederick and Mark Forrester when they met in the office of the hotel an hour later. Mark shook the hand of his preserver warmly and eagerly, wondering not a little at his evident embarrassment. \"I left Baltimore on the evening of your marriage, Mr. Castleton,\" he said, \"and was thus prevented from offering then what I am pleased to offer now\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdmy congratulations to yourself and bride. May you have a long and happy life to enjoy the blessings of a love fully returned.\" < Frederick Castleton reeled back- j\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdwaEd_as-though\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdtha_.y,oung_man__hati dealt him a heavy blow. . \"You are in error, Mr. Forrester; I am still a bachelor,\" he answered, endeavoring to speak carelessly. \"My marriage did not take place; my bride elect 'has gone with a handsome man.' \" CHAPTER XXVIII. A young and handsome stranger found lying unconscious in the street is no novel sight to the police of London. They bore the wounded man to headquarters, requesting that the clerk of tho Hotel Emmery to follow and explain explicitly all ho knew concerning the victim oi tho mysterious affair. Tho name of the fair-haired, handsome stranger, who had vowed a terrible vengeance upon the unfortunate man, had entirely escaped tho clerk's memory, and the skillful detectives who were detailed to work up tho case started out with but a \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdlight description of Frederick Oas- tloton to work upon. All efforts to arouse the uncon- icious victim, that his statement might be taken, proved unavailing* and the case was assuming alarming symptoms.

C. Ancient 1'lnliiinn. The discovery of platinum was long thought to be quite modern. In the first half of the sixteenth century, it was noticed that gold ore from the Spanish mines iu Darien sometimes included grains of a white metal which possessed the qualities of what are called the noble metals, but there were no existing records to throw light upon the matter. As the Spaniards prohib ited its export, it was another hundred years before the metal began to find its way into Europe, aud it was not till about 1750 that its properties, were really Investigated. In 11)01 M. Bertholot, the famous French savant, made an astonishing discovery in Egypt. He was cxumluiug a metal box, once the property of an Egyptian queen of the seventh century B. C, and in it he found a plate which at llrst sight he took to bo silver, but afterward turned out to be made of an alloy of gold nnd' platinum. Doubt less the platinum camo from the alluvial deposits of'the'upper Nile. NOW HE HAS A GOOD STRONG BACK What Dodd's Kidney Pills did for H. M. Spears.

Shiloh A WOMANS HEALTH Depends .Upon .the .Richness .and Regularity of Her Blood A woman needs a blood medicine regularly just because she is a woman. From maturity to middle life the health and happiness of every woman depends upon her blood, its richness and its regularity. If her blood is poor and watery, she is weak and languid, pale and nervous. If her blood is irregular she suffers untold torture from headaches, bachaches and sideaches, aud other unspeakable distress which only women know. Some women have grown to expect this suffering at regular intervals, and bear It, in hopeless silence. But they would escape the greater part of it if tbey took a box or two of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills each time to help them over the critical period. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills actually make new blood. They help a wo- man just when nature makesthe greatest demand upon her blood supply. They have done this for thousands of women throughout Canada\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdwhy shouldn't they do that much for you? Mrs. James Candy, 25 Edith avenue, Toronto, says: \"I think Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a medicine that should be taken regularly by every woman in the land. I suffered greatly from those ailments that only a woman knows. I had backaches and bead- aches, and a weary bearing down pain. I was very irregular, and was often forced to go to bed for two or three days at a time. I tried many medicines, but got. nothing to help me until I began Dr, Williams' Pink Pills, and they have given me new health and relief from pain, and made me regular. I cannot say how thankful I am for what the medicine' has done for me, and I-would urge all women who suffer as I did to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.\" Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are the greatest cure in ah the wide world for all the weakness and backaches of anaemia, all the heaviness and distress of indigestion, all the sharp stabbing pains of neuralgia, rheumatism, lumbago and sciatica, and all the other ills that come from poor, weak, watery, blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills make new blood with every dose, and thus strikes right at the root of nearly every disease that afflicts humanity. But remember that the \"just as good medicines\" that some druggists offer never cured anyone or anything.

The snake flees from its foe, who follows, watching every opportunity for a blow. When the reptile turns tbe bird uses one of his wings as a shield and strikes with his foot. The snake buries its fangs in the wing, but leaves the poison in the plumage, and tlie bird escapes unhurt. Repeated blows from the powerful claw confuse and disable yie snake, and at last it falls, to be at once dispatched by thrusts of the sharp beak into its head. The bird then tosses his victim into the air and, catching it as it fails, swallows it. \"Walters and Tip*.

Men never go fishing twice to tbe same place when they have bad luck. Now, please hurry, mother.\" The next afternoon they were standing on the frout porch of a pretty vino covered cottage, superintending tbe removal of their goods from the local delivery wagon. The indignation still burued in Elizabeth's eyes. Mrs. Brown looked tired and plaintive. \"I do hopo wo cun stay here, Elizabeth,\" she sighed, \"but the postmaster seemed slow in giving up tbe key and wouldu't promise us tho house sure.\" \"We'll stay all right, mother; don't you worry.

The gate latch clicked, and Mrs. Brown was aroused by a stifled exclamation from Elisabeth. Coming up the walk was James Graham, and beside him was sn sngulnr, middle sped woman who was apparently refuting to bo convinced. -' 'Taln't tbe kind of bouse I want, Mr. Graham,\" sbe was saying shrilly, \"not in sny way.

I don't want it.\" Graham watched her through the gate and up the sidewalk toward the station and then turned again to the house. \"Might as well run through it while I'm here,\" they beard him say, then: \"Why, hello!

A friend recommended her to me as a joke and I determined to retaliate by actually renting her the house. You have noticed how I failed. But is it really possible that you have rented my bouse from the postmaster?\" \"We really have,\" Elizabeth answered smilingly, \"though we did not dream it was yours.\" \"An uncle\" gave It to me several months ago, and you are my first tenants, It's jolly that you are to be here all summer.

Autograph Fans. It was in China that the first autograph fans were seen, and they became very fashionable tbere long years ago, Some carefully preserved specimens have belonged to tbe emperors and their wives, while others have been given as diplomatic presents. A fan of this description, for instance, was presented by the Chinese ambassador to Mme. de Clauzel at the coronation of Napoleon I. Iu India tbe very first fans were supplied by nature in tbe spreading leaves of the lotus and palm, but screen fans soon became emblems of power there also, for they are not only mentioned in the great Hindoo poems \"Mahabharata\" and \"Ramaya- na,\" but Brahma and India are represented in the ancient sculptures at Ele- pbanta followed by slaves bearing the fly fan and parasol, which latter was also considered as an emblem of supreme power.

In every passing moment of stillness the fluttering hum becomes audible. Sometimes the buzz of a flying crab, the giant bug that seems impatient of its time in the air and eager to return to its home in the water, rises momentarily above the dull sound of diminutive insect life; The broad, undulating wings of the silk worm moth flap into and out of the little horizon of the enclosing night. Every light is surrounded by a varied swarm of dazzled Insects, their diminutive forms casting sudden shadows along the ground and out into the darkness. A bat dances by in erratic haste, and from the upper air the muffled whistle of the invisible night hawk tolls of the perpetual destruction of this swarming life. Close to the water against the invisible black- -ness-of\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdthe-banks-of-Tushes-a-firefly- trails a momentary thread of light, says an appreciative nature writer in The Toronto Globe. 'The moving spark shows so distinctly and impressively in the darkness that the eye follows along its imagined course eager for its reappearance. There is a fascination In this combined mystery of light and life. It appears again, upsetting all calculations as to speed and direction. During the eclipse it must have loitered and wandered. The phosphorescent glow trails along another irregular courso and goes out. The great, placid, indolent moon looks over the marsh, lighting up the open spaces, a few waving rushes sharply silhouetted against the clear circle of light. Down where the level rays cannot penetrate the shadows seem to grow darker, and there the firefly trails again his momentary torch. Tho spirit of the marsh is abroad, and these diminutive moving lights seem but struggling emanations from a great presence. Tho little span of light coming from the nowhere and vanishing into it again inspires the play of wandering fancies. It seems always emblematic of our own brief glance into the conscious universe. A muskrat swims across the open water, breaking its surface into a widening trail of quivering ripples, and the swift entangled threads of reflected moonlight chase one another away into the shadows of ths dense banks of rushes. But ths phosphorescent trail of ths firefly drawn across the invisible background of shadow claims a keener interest than the more material life of the water and air.
