John Merrivale's Wife. CHAPTER 1 It was 2 o'clock in the morning, and John Merrivale still sat before the l-| brary fire, alert and anxious. When- ever thesound of approaching wheels was heard he held his breath till they passed, and then almost breathlessly waited for others to draw near. Most men would have eased their anxiety by pacing the floor or looking out of the window; but John Merrivale was too much ashamed of his nervousness to even admit it to himself, He had | entered his house at 12 o'clock to find | his wife away. She had not spoken to | him of any engagement or intention of spending the dvening from home. Mr, Merrivale did not ignore the fact of hard words the morning previous. He had told his wife that he should not be home till late that night. She had wept and he had called her a baby and a simpleton, It seemed to him, as he looked over the two years of his life as a husband, that his wife had wept every day since they were married. Of course she had | Ro cause for tears. A ghost of a smile | played around his stern but handsome | mouth as he thought of her over-| weening fondness for himself and of | her eum of every person and oe! suit that kept him away from her, | Now she had undoubtedly planned to | make him jealous by going to some ball | or party without his Knowledge, The sound of wheels grew less and | less frequent, and now the little clock on the mantel struck three. This was | horrible! Ten minutes past three, and the soft click of a lateh-key was heard. Very slowly and deliberately Mr, Mer- rivale rose from his chair and opened the door leading into the hall. He was deadly pale, but his face was iron in its rigidity. : A gentleman in full evening dress had entered the house and was re moving his overcoat when the library- | ° door opened. “ Hallo! Jack is that you?" thenew- comer inquired, in an off-hand manner. “Yes it is I" Mr. Merrivale re plied; “but where have you bgen so late “To one of the Barrington crushes,” the young man responded, following his companion into the library, “and I | didn't know as I should ever get] back.” “It wasn't so far,” Mr. Merrivale | remarked. “Youseel had two ladies to take | home, living in totally opposite direc- | tions, and out of regard for horse-flesh | I walked the last mile.” Clarke Denning was an old friend and chum of John Merrivale's, and had been his guest for several weeks. A very natural pride, natural at least | to John Merriv ale, restrained him from | immediately speaking of his wife's ab- | sence. Then, too, there was something | else. How strange that Clarke had | not remarked upon his being up so late. He did not usually find him in | the library at 3 o'clock in the morning. Mildred had doubtless made | a confidant of Clarke and he had falt | it his duty to respect her communica- | tion. This was of course disloyalty to him. For a moment there was silence be- tween the men, when Clarke said, sud- | denly: “I'm going to bed, Jack.” “Yes, presently,” Mr. Merrivale re- | plied, in a curious tone, “but first I should like to ask you if you know any- | thing of Mildred 7 i “Mildred!” There was surprise enough in Mr. | Denning’s tone, but his face was crim- | son and his eyes did not readily meet | his friend's. “Yes, Mildred,” sponded. night.” “When did she go out?” This was a practical question that | had not occurred to Mr. Merrivale, Ha had been so sure of his wife's motive in going away that he had not thought of inquiring into details. “1 don’t know when she left the house; I only know that she is not here now, and that is quite enough,” he re- plied. : “Haven't you spoken to the ser- vants ?" “ That is the last thing I should do. | Did she tell you that we had quarreled this morning, Clarke?” “She didn't need to tell me that. One look at her face was sufficient.” “Did she say anything about leav- ing or punishing me, Clarke, or any- thing of that sort?" “Why don't you ask me if I have run away with your wife?” Clarke Denning’s eyes flashed fire, as he instinctively drew a step nearer his companion. “1 beg your pardon, Clarke. Ionly thoughts she might leave poured out bor wes; and, perhaps, given you a Mr. Merrivale re! “She has not been home to- “ Jack, your wife could no more plot against you than she could poison you. She idolizes every hair of your head, and you know it. How do you Know but something horrible hasn't happened to her? Neither you nor I have been home sinfe morning. I eannot con- ceive why you did not rouse the ser- vants at once and find out what time Mrs. Merrivale went out. You would make a bad judge, Jack. You would never want to hear but one side of a case.” “ Mildred dismissed her maid day be- fore yesterday. That locks suspicious. Yesterday morning she told me she was no longer a baby and was defiunt for the first time. To-night I came home and she is not iy I wait till dawn and she does not return. Two and two make four, Clarke, and all the information I can get will not alter the mathematical fact.” “You are eruel and unjust, Jack. If you will not inquire about her I will, and-—" “No, you will go to bed,” Mr. Merri- vale interrupted. * The fact is, Clarke, the whole thing is so exclusively my business that you must pardon me for saying that I shall be compelled to manage it in my own way.” There was nothing for Clarke to do but submit, and the two men departed with a cloud between them. “Unjust and cruel!” These words had struck deep, It was plain that Clarke's sympathies were entirely with his wife. Mildred had doubtless com- plained fo him and acquainted him with her plans. At breakfast Mr. Merrivale conde- seended to ask a question or two of the servart who waited on him. Mrs. Mer- rivale had left the morning previous. Did the servant see her go? Yes, and did not order her carriage as usual. She wore a black dress and took noth- ecessary . Merrivale had carefully examined every nook and corner of his wife's apartments, even to the little safe in which she { Kept her jewels, Every jewel she possessed was there, | with the exception of two diamond | rings which she had before her mar Her engagement and wedding Clarke came down before breakfast and anxions, and Mr. Merrivale in- formed him of the result of his inter- view, “Perhaps Clarke suggested, “ Did she mention such a possibility to you? Mr. Merrivale inquired, “ Hang it all, Jack! Haven't I said that she didn't tell me anything?” “And is it possible she has gone home,” Upon my word, you must think 1 have suddenly developed into “If Mildred had seen fit to throw a Mr. Mer companion’s earnest disclaimer, * would have simplified things consi but women are as destitute of business capabilities as they are of logic. 1 should not have put a straw in her way if she had told wanted to leave me" What use to talk to a man who had i i i § vas 1h fe she Clarke once more asked to be allowed to assist in the search, and was again an before, There was one chance i dred, Mr. Merrivale te in one hun dd himself, that have met with an ae and on this chance he must work. The fact was John Merrivale cared not to do his part toward discovering the whereabouts of his wife, but there in the man's face which Clarke Denning saw it, and won- dered could it bs possible that he had loved his wife and was really sorrow- ing for his loss? Sometimes there seemed little doubt satirical words pointed as plainly to another conclusion. Clarke made several attempts to get had been overruled. One day, about two months after | | Mors.

Leaving out of considera tion the higher branches of knowledge, only derivable from special schools, the effort seems to tend toward the education of the masses. Looking at the expenses, some five years ago, with ap propris ation of $5,564,870, the cost of education was ten shillings, say £2.20 per pupil. The liberality of the belief in the great advantages to derived from this general education becomes mani- fest when it learned that in five years about $8,500,000 of our money has been bestowed by private indi- viduals for the school fund, together with a great deal of valuable real estate, Three years ago there were 2,519,000 pupils, and, from such ac- counts as may be gathered last year, the total number was near 3,000,000, There is one point which, in an educa- tional sense, requires correction, and that is in regard to the Japanese girls, as the number of these is very small in proportion to the boys. Boys Attacked by a Hawk, Three boys, children of a planter in Banks county, Ga, were playing in the houseyard when a large hawk swooped down, and, seizing a chicken in its tal ons, flew away. The boys were very much excited by the occurrence, and followed the hawk some distance, To their delight the bird dropped his prey, and the goon were standing around the chicken. The little fellows did not suppose that the hawk would be bold enough to at. tack them, But the bird was s angry at the of his meal that he circled around the heads of the children, and finally pounced down upon the eldest of the boys, whose was ten years, The hawk fastened his talons in the lad’s chin, and beat the poor little fellow’s head with his wings, The other boys went to the rescue, The hawk thrust out his disengaged talon and caught one of them by the arm, flapping his wings meanwhile and pecking at his prisoners with his beak. The third boy got out his knife and gave a thrust, which seemed to take the hawk by surprise, for he then tried to get away. But the courage of the boys was up, and they held fast until they had killed the ferocious bird. The hawk measured twenty-four inches from tip to Lip.
