A STARTLING- EPISODE.
J.ate one evening a group of young
men had the sniuUlng-rnomof the llleii-
helm eJuu lo themselves. They sat In a
circlo ruimd the blazing fire, chatting,
laughing, dialling one another, and
bandying jests. At length, during
momentary pause, one of the party who
was lounging In an cusy-chalr with his
legs dangling over one of the arms, and
ills hat tilted over his eyes, idly took up
a newspaper which was at hand, and
read out from the agony column the
following adveitlscincnt:
"Jack. Meet mo at the Marble Arch
to-morrow, Tuesday, nt u n clock p. in.
It Is tho last favor I shall ever ask.
Coino If you love me. Maooie."
Tliere was a sneer on the face of the
reader, and the announcement caused
laughter among his audience. Onuof
the young men turned to another, nnd
said, Jokingly:
"Jack, you base deceiver! It's your
utile tniuiner friend. You've behaved
shockingly, and It's your duty to go."
"Bosh!" returned Jack Canister, sip
ping tranquilly at his tumbler. "She
has consoled herself long ago. Besides,
Maggie Isn't .her name."
"I should like to know whether this
advertisement Is genuine or not," said
one of the youngest of the party, pos
sessing himself of tho newspaper. "It
would be rather fun to Investigate It.
I'll go If any one else will."
"What's the good?" growled Jack
Canister, contemptuously.
The youngster who had suggested the
expedition was a newly-elected member
of the club, who, even In his novitiate,
had contrived to establish a reputation
for flirtation, of which he was immense
ly proud. He vns universally liked on
account of his amiable disposition and
his boyish frankness, and though he
fondly imagined that ho had attained
the dignity of a wan of the world, he
was really regarded as Tin honest, foolish
young fellow who w ould soon sober j

It had been a thoroughly wet day,and
the rain had ceased so recently that the

there we're, very few poopte about.
Thurston lit a cigarette, mentally decided
not to waste "more than five ; minutes.
and then began to look leisurely about
hlui. - ' . . 4
As ho did so, he became conscious of
the flguro of a woman standing close
against the railings, watching hhn In
tently. She advanced straight up to
him as his glance met hcrs.and accosted
him.
"Are you Jack?" she inquired, ab
ruptly.
"Yes," replied Thurston, recklessly.
They were standing beneath a street
lamp. the light from which fell full upon
his face, while hers was In shadow. He
could see, however, that she was a
young lady.qulctly and decently dressed.
She scrutinized hhn for a few minutes
In silence, during which Thurston, un
able to control his habit of of blushing,
turned uncomfortably red.
"Maggie?" he murmured Interrogat
ively, Instinctively guessing that he was
some oilier person.
"Maggie can not-come," said the
young woman shortly. "I am her sister
Helen. Follow me."
Thurston, completely taken aback by
this peremptory request, and hardly
realizing what had happened, followed
his companion without a word. He was
naturally disconcerted by this unexpect
ed turn of events. He had never de
signed to personate "Jack;"hls response
to tbe girl's question had come almost
Involuntarily to his lips. But having
once done, so, he resolved to wait and
see what would happen, Impelled by an
adventurous sphlt and the desire of
having a good story to relate at the club.
The girl silently led the way along the
Edgvvare road. She walked quickly,
with her head bent; but the brilliantly
lighted shops revealed that she was
deadly pale. After walking several
minutes without a word.Thurston began
to feel embarrassed, and ho attempted
to utter some phrase of boyish gallantry.
At the first word, however, the gitl
stopped him.
"Dou't speak to me," she said, In
a voice trembling with suppressed emo
tion. Young Thurston was so disconcerted
that ho had serious thoughts of disap
pearing down a side street. Qne thing
only was quite clcamo' hlmr-and that
was that the adventure he had embarked
upon was very different from anything
he had vaguely anticipated. Th gill's
appeaiance and mannner precluded all
suspicion of lightness of character. Her
demeanor, indeed, Impressed hlui with
a feeling of solemnity. Ho cudd not
for the life of him bring himself to ex
plain that he was not the person he
had pretended. Youthful arkviardness
and a sense of shame kept him jdlcnt.
At length his guide turned ajlde Into
a mean narrow street, and stopped be

creature's remains had evidently been
arranged with a view to plcturcsntte
effect. The thin, waxen hands wi-re
folded upon her breast, which bore a
cross of flowers. Tho tableau a trifle
morbid and theatrical, perhaps, was
nevcrtliclcss strikingly beautiful and
touching.
Poor young Thurston was appalled
and horrified? lie, was but a Ltd. and
had never yet seen a dead person. The
sublime serenity of death-sleep was
never more impressively manifest than
in the motionless faeo of this dead girl.
He gazed with a sort of terrified fiscln-
atlon, and the spectacle, combined with
tho painful shock of surprise, made him
turn white and faint. .,
His companion the girl Helen'-iy
meanwhile stood gazing at him with an
expression of relentless severity. The

the curtain, stood out, blue and livid,

"She Is dead, as you see. Jt was by

would not tell me your name and ad

could pot find words to confess his
thoughtless frivolity at such a nioment.
"She told me to tell jou," continued
the girl, "that she loved you and for-

"That Is all, said the girl, evidently
conl rolling herself by a great effort.
"Unless yott would like to to kiss"
' "No, no," Interrupted Thurston, In a
ivlilspcr.
I don t think the worse of you for
that," said the girl, dropping the cur
tain, with an air of relief; "of all lips,
yours arc. most unworthy to touch her
angel face. But she bade me ask you."
She turned aside as she siio'ke, and
Thurston began to edge towards the
door.
"I promised that I would not re
proach you," said the girl, not attempt
ing to hinder hlui, "but It was a cruel,
heartless crime. We were ajonc, sho
and I my baby sister. Times vvete
bad, and I had to leavo hcr'for a little
while. I thought she was safe, but you
came by you, a fine, rich gentleman.
Y'ott plucked my poor flower, and then
flung It aside. God forgive you."
Thurston, who was at heart an hon
est young fellow, was easily moved to
genuine emotion. Innocent as ho was
of this deplorable affair, ho was never
theless simple and pure-minded enough
to. feel generous shame at tho wrong
that had been done. This, and unaf
fected sympathy for the gtlef and deso
lation of the elder sister, caused his blue
eyes to grow dim with tears, which the
girl noted.
"Sho hoped you would go to her fun
eral," she ndded in a softer tone, men
tioning the time and place, "and put
some flowers on her grave."
Thurston bovved his head and left the
room. He reached the street in a pain
fully agitated and bewildered state of
mind, and walked blindly back towards
clubland. But he did not return to his
club to tell the story. lie turned aside
into Hyde Park, and wnlkcd aimlessly
and absently westward aetoss the open
space, baring his head to the fresh night
breezes. It is needless tb speculate
What depths of tho young man's soul
had been stirred by tills ttagle episode.
It takes very little sometimes a falling
leaf, a chance word to suggest serious
and wholesome reflections.
Thurston's cogltatlons.whatever their
nature, kept him abroad till far Into the
night, and when he icturued to his
chambers ho suddenly remembered the
letter which Jljepoorjjtrl lituj handed
him. He drew the letter from the en
velope, and a single glance at the hand-
writing sulllced to reveal to him what
lie wished to know. The handwriting
was unmistakably that of Maugrave
Vernon, the man of all others whose
farcer and reputation he had most en
vied. This discovery jarred unpleasantly
upon young Thurston's fcellnss. Most
people w ould have been less surprised
than he at such a revelation. Mr. Man
grave Vernon was a man of fashion, a
man of pleasure a social butterfly, In
fact, agreeable, witty, polished and
eagerly sought alter by women and
youngsters. Hut there was a seamy
sido to his character, which shrewd
persons suspected, and .knowing ones
had long ago found otit. He had treated
Thurston with consideration, for the
fellow was rich and well connected, and
therefore the lad, admiring his t'azzllng
qualities, had secretly worshiped him
and made him his idol,
Even in his present rather severe
mood Thurston was disposed to make
every excuse for his friend's conduct,
There had been a misunderstanding, no
doubt, he could, probably, give a differ
ent complexion to tlm affair. At all
events, Thurston resolved to give Iiiui
the opportunity, if only In the hope of
being able to retain his regard for him.
Accordingly, the young man sealed up
the envelope, and pext day he-took
Mangravo Vernon aside at the club and
handed It tn him.
"What's this?" exclaimed, Mr. Ver
non, putting up his oye-glass. "A let
ter?" "You had better look at it," said
Thurston, gravely,
"Hy Jove! My last letter to little
Maggie, written months ago," exclaimed
the other, reddening slightly.
"How did you get hold of It?"
"Tell me, Vernon, Is the poor girl's
story true?" said Thurston.
"I never contradict a lady especially
If she be pretty; and little 'Maggie was
devilish pretty," said Vernon, lightly,
but looking rather uncomfortable never
theless. "I don't know what her story
Is. She Is not going to be troublesome,
I hope especially just now.. It, as 1
gather, you are interested In the young
lady"
"She Is dead." Interrupted young
Thurston sharply.
"Dead. Is sho? Il'cll, that's lu I

look concerned, but roanlfeslly relieved.
"That being so, I don't mind confes

a lady, just as I nm seriously courting a
liundred-thousand-pottnd heiress.
"Is that all you have to say?" ejacu
lated young- Thurston, beginning to
breathe quickly. 4
"Yes, except to advise you, my dear
boy, as a friend, not to allow yourself to
be mixed up in affairs of this sort,"
said Mr. Vernon in his most cenlal
tones.

Young Thurston, quite unnecessarily,
as It tinned out, sent a note to Mr. Ver
non, stating where he was to be found
llext day, and adding that on the day
after he proposed to leave England,
possibly for a long period. Meanwhile,
on the morrow, he was a spectator of a
sail little funeral In a dreary London
cemetery. Tliere was only one mourner
a poor young girl, who appeared to
much overwhelmed with grief to notice
him. Young Thurston lingered, in
rather a shamefaced, embarrassed way,
among the tombstones at a little dis
tance, until the mourner, at the con
clusion of the short service, looked up
at htni. Then ho came forwatd, an I
cast a a wreath of white flowers Into the

Children diet lareelv unon cake and
bread, and these articles. If Unlit, sweet
and composed of materials that are free
from injurious substances, aro easily di
gested, nutritious ami wholesome,
I here is a danger to our children, how.
ever, lurking in their bread aud cake
which Is too often lost sight of. These
articles are now leavened largely by bak
Ing powders, and when pure and whole
some baking powders are used they
make not only tne most palatable food,
but one much more wholesome and nu
tritive than if leavened with yeast or
cream of tartar and soda. The trouble
arises from the fact as shown by recent
scienuuc tesis oy me uovcrnnicnt chem
ists and official boards of health, that
all these baklnz powders, with the simile
exception of the .lloyal, contain either
unie, aium, puospnales, or acids or an
Injurious character. Therefoio when

these cheap baking powders these in

of the stomach. Trof. Willard Paiker,
U. S. Surgeon-General Hammond. Prof.
Alouzo Clark, most eminent nhvslclans
of New York, with scores of others.
have written and spoken most earnestly
of the evils arising from partaking of
such food. There should be as much
care in the choice of baking powders as
in obtaining pure milk or In having a
prescription compounded from pure
drugs nnd not from poisons.
The matter is one of the greatest im
portance, particularly to the rising gen
eration, and while our conservative law
makers are making up their minds as
to the proper legislation to stop tho sale
of the poisonous compounds, mothers
will do woll to study It carefully. The
housekeeper will experience no incon
venience in discarding the use of the
adulterated baking powder. If she has
been using it. as the Itoyal Baking Pow
