1 was about to give up my wateh,
thinking that no one would come out
on such a night if they could help it,
when a side door was opened and a lady
slipped cautiously out.
She gazed suspiciously round to see
that she was not watched, closed the
door and hurried away.
In an instant I bad slipped from my
hiding place and followed hex.
She passed on to Westminister and
paused in the shadow of the grand old
abbey, evidently awaiting some one,
Presently a bansom cab drove up
close to the spot, and a man leaped out,
paid and dismissed the cabman, and
then advanced to Lady Littledale,

I must say I did not like the looks of
this letter at all. There was a fast,
slangy tone about it which I did notd
think nice, especially when addressed
to a lady.
“Well, what do you think of it?" de-
manded Lord Littiedale, sternly.
**You must give me time to think,
Y ou will leave the letter with me and
1 will let you know in a day or two
what I intend doing.”
“Let it ba so,” said Lord Littledale,
as he took up his hat. *‘I trust all to
you. Mr. Gerval, and know I shall be
faithfully served.”
I raust confess I had not much liking
for the task set before me, for I saw
very little chance of success,
My first endeavor was to find out as
much as possible of Lady Littledale’s
previous history.
She had married a Captain Marsham
when she was very young. He had used
her badly-—so badly, indeed, that be-
fore a year after the marriage she had
flown from him. Marsham was said
to have died in India, but I lost all
trace of him and could gain no prvofs
of his death, and 1 learned that his
Christian name had been Ernest.
I now, with the ald of my agents,
put a strict watch upon Lord Little-
dale’s house and bere I met with more
hd

i “Do not jump at coaclasions, my
{ lord,” I said. “Her ladyship may be
That there is a mystery
i about this no one can deny, but a mys-
| tery does not prove guilt.”
*What age is this fellow?”
“About 22 or 233. Don’t for one
moment think that it is her ladyship’s
first husband come to life again.”
“I know not what to think, Advise
me, Mr. Gerval, what to do.”
I thought for n moment and then
asked:
**Has your lordship some distant re-
lation—a lady-—who would oblige you
by giving a party-—one who would ask
any one you might propose?’
“Yes, my cousin, Lady Ferncliff,
gives one to-night. I intended to go
with my wife; but now--"’
“Nothing could be more fortunate,”
I interrupted quickly. *‘You must go,
as If nothing had happened, You must
also get me an invitation for myself
and friend. You can do this?”
“1 can write you the invitation now,
but I do not know the purpose,”
“Never mind that, Do as I tell you,
and await the consequences calmly,”
That afternoon I spent with Graham
and after some pressure, made him
consent to accompany me to Lady
Fernclifl’s,
Mr, Graham and I reached the re-
ception room, and, as I had arranged
with Lord Littledale, at once introduc
ed Mr, Graham to Lady Ferncliff, who
received him with marked favor, and,
really and truly, a mere handsome fel-
low, or a more gentlemanly one, was
nut to be found in the place.
We were about to move off, when I
caught site of Lord and Lady Little
dale moving forward, and I was thun-
derstruck at Lady Littledale’s won-
drous likeness to Mr. Graham.
I had never seen her ladyship before,
and was so startled that I could not
speak.
Her ladyship was undoubtedly a very
handsome woman, about 38, well
served, and her toilet was splendid,
success.
Jt was one of those gloomy nights
Lady Fernoliff at once sald:
“Oh, Mr, Graham, I must introduce
you to a dear cousin of mine, Lady
Littledale, Mr. Ernest Graham.”
For a moment they stood thunder-
struck. Then Lady Littledale mutter-
ed something about being delighted,
bowed and passed on, but her face,
neck and shoulders were covered with
blushes, and her bosom heaved with
emotions she could not suppress,
Mr. Graham was about to follow her,
when Lord Littledale placed an iron
grasp upon his arm, as he sald:
“A word with you, sir 1m private.
There is a withdrawing room close by,
where we can speak, Mr. Gerval please
follow.”
“The young man seemed startled at
first, but bowed and accompanied Lord
Littledale, while I followed.
“Now, sir,"’ cried his lordship, “1
demand to know how first you made
the acquaintance of Lady Littledale,
[ presume you know who I am, and
will not doubt my right to inquire.”
“I suppose you are Lord Littledale,
and therefore do not doubt your right,
but at the same time I must decline to
answer that question, I have scruples
of honor.”
“Honor! A man who takes
from a woman had better not
honor,”
The young fellow turned very
and bit his lips but made no reply.
**Dare you deny that you have accep- |
ted large sums of money from her?"
“No! I do not deny it—I confess it.”
“Do you deny that you love her?"
I confess that 1 love her dear-
ly; as the young fellow spoke I fancied
I saw a smile on his face,
“Enough, sir! I know that it is not
the custom of Englishmen to dnel, but
I have been a soldier and demand satis

And with this Lord Littledale turned
upon his heel and was about to leave

~ There are a few matters concern-
ing health that are more completely
misunderstood by the average man or
woman than the subject of under-
clothing. In the first place I may say
that in our climate some kind of un-
thing should be worn by man,
woman and child all the year round-—
summer as well as winter—though, of
course, should vary in character
with the seasons. There are doubtless
many Wear of the sort
winter or summer, and who have thus
far escaped all ill consequences, or at
least think they have. In all proba-
bility, however, they are deceiving
themselves, They may not yet have
suffered any serous inconvenience
from that neglect to clothe themselves
properly, but they are quite certainly,
even though the process goes on slowly,
weakening their resisting powers, and
are hence rendering themselves less capa-
ble of bearing up against the attacks
which morbid influences are conse-
quently making. Every year finds
them more apt to suffer from slight
ailments, each one of waich debili-
tates the system; advancing age makes
then more susceptible, snd at last
pneumonia, pleurisy, dysentery or some
{other serious disease strikes them
down, The changes in our climate are
| 80 sudden and severe as to require all
the vital strength of the organism to
combat them, and if the body be not
properly protected the danger 18 great-
ly increased. Even with all the care
that can be exercised the barriers are
{ often broken down.
-Jet and beaded bonnets generally
| will be worn for dress during the next
| three months, The beaded bonnet is a
| small capote of beads strung in trellis
or other open patterns, and the tulle ic
| massed along the edge of the whole
