Sft' you long. Ue la advertised te support the
' aeend resolution; 1 want te see him nnd that
$ te all"
r An elderly gentleman, seated at the end of
' bench, rose and offered his place te the
'. tedy who remained. She hesitated te take
') advantage of his kindness, until he remind
' ed her that he had heard what she said te
nerlrlend. Belerethe third resolution was
proposed his sett would be at his own dispo
sal again. She thanked him. and without
further ceremony took his place. He was
provided with an epera-Rlass, which he mere
than once offered te her, when famous orators
appeared en the platform ; she made no ue
of ft until a speaker known In the city as a
ehlp-ewner stepped forward te support the
second resolution.
His name (announced in the advertise
ment) was Ernest Llsmere.
The moment be arose the I ady asked for the
opera-glass. She kept it te her eyes for such
a length et time, and with such evident In
terest in Mr. Llsmere, that the curiosity of
her neighbors was arensed. Bad he any
thing te say in which a lady (evidently a
stranger te him) was personally Interested ?
Tnere was nothing in the address that he de
ll vered which appealed te the enthusiasm of
women. lie was undoubtedly u handsome
man whose appearance proclaimed him te be
In the prime el life, midway perhaps betw eon
thirty and forty years of age. Hut why a
lady should persist In keeping an opera
glass fixed en him all through his speech
was a question which found the general In
genuity at a less for a reply.
Having returned the glass with an apology
the lady ventured en putting a question
next. "Did it strike you, sir, lliat Air. 1.18 1.18
mere Beemed te be out of spirits T" sbe
asked.
"Can't say it did, ma'am."
"Perhaps you noticed that he left the plat
form the moment he liad done?".
Thla betrayal of interest in the npoaker did
net escape the notice of a lady, seated en the
bench in front Belore the old gentleuian
could answer, sbe volunteered an explana
tion. "I am at raid Mr. Llsmere Is troubled by
anxieties connected -with his business," sbe
said. "My husband heard It leperted in the
city yesterday that be was seriously embar
rassed by the failure."
A loud burst of applause made the cud of
the sentence Inaudible. A lameus member
of Parliament had risen te propose the third
resolution. The pollte old man took hi
seat, and the lady left the hall te Jein her
friend.
-.V "wen, airs, c.aiienner, lias Mr. llsmere
disappointed you T"
"Far from it ; but I have heard a report
about him which has alarmed me : he is
said te be seriously troubled about money
matters. Hew can 1 find out his address in
the city?"
"We can step at the first stationer's shop
we pass, and ask te leek at the directory.
Are you going te pay Mr. Llsmere a visit 7"
"I am going te think about It."
CHAl'TKll II.
The next day a clerk entered Mr. Lis Lis
meie's private room at the eilice, and pre
sented a visiting card. Mrs. Callender had
reflected, and had arrived at a decision. Un
derneath hei name Bhe had written these
explanatory words : "On important bust
nesa." "Dees she leek as if she wanted money ?"
Mr. Lismore Inquired.
"Oh dear, no ; she comes In her catrlage."
"Is she young or ild "
"Old, sir."
Te Mr. Llsmere, conscious of the disastrous
lnlluence occasionally exercised ever busy
men by youth and beauty, this was a recom
mendation lu Itself. He said, "Shew her
in."
Observing the lady, as she approached hliu,
with tbe momentary curiosity of a stranger,
no neucea mat sue still preserved ttie re
mains of beauty, hue bad also escaped the
misfortune, common te persons at her time
ei we, ei becoming tee rat. Ijven te a man's
eye, her dressmaker appeared te have made
the most of that favorable circumstance.
Her figure had its defects concealed, and Its
remaining merits set oil te advantage. At
the same time she evidently held herself
above the common deceptions by which
some women seek te conceal their age, she
were her own gray hair ; and her complex
ion bore the test or daylight. On entering the
room she made her apologies with some em
barrassment Being the embarrassment of a
stranger (and net et a youthful stranger) It
failed te Impress Mr. Llsmere favorably.
"I am atrald I have chosen an lucouvonl luceuvonl lucouvenl
ent tlme for iny visit," she begau.
"lam at your service," he answered a
little stiffly ; especially ir you will be se
kind as te mention your business with me
In a few words."
She wasa woman or seme spirit, and that
reply reused her. "I will mention it in ene
word," she said smartly. "My business is
gratituda"
He was completely at a less te understand
what she meant, and he said se plainly.
Instead of explaining herself, she pitta ques
tion. "Doyeuremombortho night of the ole ele
veuth of March, betwoen live and bix years
alnce ?"
He considered for a moment "Se," he
said, "I don't remember it. Kxcuse me,
Mrs. Callender, I have affair, of my own te
attend te which cause me much anxiety "
"Let me assist your memory. Mr. Llsmere;
and I will leave you te your affairs. On the
date that I have referred te you were en your
way te the railway station at Hexmere, te
catch thenlght express Irem the north te
Londen."
Asa hint that his time was aluable the
whip-owner had hitherto remained standing
He new took his customary seat and began
te listen with some interest Mrs. Callender
had produced her effect en him already.
"It was absolutely necessary," she pro pre
ceeded, "thatyeu should be en beard your
ship In the Londen decks at nine o'clock the
next memimr. It veu had Inst thn nrnreai.
the raasel would have balled without you."
The expression of his face began te change
te surprise. "Who told you that?" he
asked.
"Yeu shall hear directly. On your way
Inte the town, your carrlage was stepped
by an obstruction in the high read. The
people et Bexmere were looking at a house
en lire,"
He started te his feet "Geed heavens ! are
you the lady ?"
She held up her hand in satirical pretest.
"Gently, sir I you suspected me Just new of
wasting your valuable time. JJen't rashly
conelude that I am the lady, until you tinil
that I am acquainted with the circum
stances." "Is there no excuse for my falllntr te recog
nize you ?" Mr. Lismore asked. "We were
en the dark side of the burning house ; veu
weie fainting, andl " J
"And you," she interposed, "after saving

"Something mere than the gratitude which
only says 'thank you,' " alie added. "Before
1 explain myself, however, I want te knew
what you have been doing, and hew It was
that my inquiries tailed te trace you after
that terrible night T"
The appearance of depression which Mrs.
Callender bad noticed at the publle meeting
showed Itself again In Mr. Llsmore's face.
He sighed as he answered her.
"My story has one merlt," he said , "It is
seen told. I cannot wonder thatyeu failed
te discover me, In the first place I was net
captain of my ship at that tlme; I was only
mate. In the second place, 1 Inherlled some
money, and ceased te lead a sailor's life, In
less than a year from the night et the tire.

were in the way of your tracing me. With

turally congratulated myself en my own

der, what the future has in store for us."
Heslopped. Ills handsome features har
denedas if he was suffering (and conceal
ing) pain. Before It was possible te Bpeak te
him, there was a knock at the deer. Anether
Islter, without an appointment, had called j
the clerk appeared again, w llli a circl and a
message.
"The gentleman begs you w 111 see htm, sir.
He baa something te tell you which is tee
important te be delayed."
Hearing the message, Mrs. Callender rev
Immediately.
"It Is enough for te day that we under
stand each ethor," she said, "Have you any
engagement te morrow, alter the hours of
business T"
"Nene."
She pointed te her card ou the writing writing
tnble. "Will you come te inn te-morrow
evening at that address? 1 ntu llke the gen
tleman who just called; I tee hav tuny reason
for w Milne te see you."
He gladly accepted the imitation. Mrs.
Caltemler stepped him as he opened the
deer for her.
"Shall 1 elleiid you," she said, "if I ask a
strange question fJefore 1 go 1 have a better
motive, mind, than mere curiosity. Are you
married 7"
"Se."
'Torglve me again." she resumed, ".it my
age, you cannot possibly understand me ;
aud yet"
She hesitated. Mr. Lismere tried te give
her confidence "Pray don't stand en cere
meny, Mrs. Callender. Nothing that v can
ask me need be prefaced with an apolegv."
Thus encouraged, she -ventured te pro
ceed. "Yeu may be engaged te be married 7"
she suggested. "Or jeu may be In love ''
He ten ml It impossible te conceal his sur
prise, but he answered without hesitation.
"There is no such bright prospect iu my
life," he said. "I am net even in love."
Sbe left him with a little slith. It sounded
llke a sigh of relief.
r.rnest Lismere was thoroughly puzzled.
What could be the old lady's object lu ascer
taining that he was still free from a matrimo
nial engagement ? If the idea had occurred
te him In time, he might bae alluded te her
domestic liri, aud might hae asked If she
had children. With a llttle tact he might
have discovered mero than this. .She had de
scribed her feeling towards him as passing
the ordinary limits of gratitude ; but she was
evidently rich enough te be above the impu
tation of a mercenary motive. Did she pre
pese xe erigiuen tuose ureary prespecia ie
which he bad alluded In speaking el hisewu
lite ? When he presented himself at her
house the uevtevenlnp, would she introduce
him te a chnruilng daughter '
He smiled as the Idea recurred te him.
"An appropriate time te tie thinking of my
chances of marriage 1" he said te himself.
"Iu another month I may be a rulued man."
CHArTEK III.
The gentleman who had se urgently re
quested an Interview was a devoted friend
who had obtained a means of helping truest
at a serious crisis of his allalrs.
It had been truly reported that he was in a
position ei pecuniary embarrassment, owing
te me lauure ei a meicanttie ueuse with
which he had been intimately connected.
Whispers allectlng his own solvency had
followed en the bankruptcy of the firm. He
h.id already endeavored te obtain advances
et meney en the usual conditions, and had
been met by excuses ter delay. His friend
had new arrived with a letter of introduction
te a capitalist, well known In commercial
circles ier his daring speculations, and for
his great wealth.
Leeking at the letter, Krnest ebiered that
the envelope was sealed. Iu spite of that
ominous Innovation of t-stablished usage, In
cases of personal introduction, he presented
the letter. On this occasion he was net put
ett with excuses. The capitalist flatly de
clined te discount Mr. LWmere'it hills, un
less they were backed by responsible names.
Krne&t made a last ellert
He applied for help te two mercantile men
whom he had assisted lu their ditllculties,
and whose names would have satUtled the
money-lendor. They were most sincerely
sorry but they tee refused.
The ene security that he could eiler was
open, it must be owned, te serious objections
ou the score ei risks. He wanted the ad
vance et twenty thousand tieutids, ttecured
en a homeward-bound ship and cirge. But
tbe vessel was net insured ; aud, at that
stormy season, she was alreadv mero than a
month overduo. Could gratelul colleagues
be blamed if they forget their obligations
when they were asked te eiler pecuniary
help te a merchant In this situation? Krneat
returned te his office, without money nnd
without credit
A man threatened by ruin is In no state of
mind te keep an ontragement at a lady's tea
table. Cm est sent aletter et apology ie Mrs.
Callender, alleging extreme pressure of
business as the oxcuse ler breaking the en
gagement "Ami te wait ier an answer, sir? "the
messenger nsked.
"Ne ; you nre merely te loave the letter."
cnrTUii iv.
In an heur'a time te Kruest's astonish astenish astonish
inent the messenger returned with a reply.
"The lady was Just going out, sir, when I
rang at the deer," he explained, "and took
the loiter from me herself. .She didn't ap
pear te knew your band writing, and she
asked me who 1 came from. As seen as I
told her 1 was ordered te wait."
Lrnest opened the lelter.
"Bear Mr. Llsmore-One of us must
speak out, and your letter el apolegv fortes
me te be that one. If you are really se
proud and se distrustful as you seem te be, I
shall etlend you. If net, 1 shall prove my
self te be jour friend.
"Your excuse Is 'pressure ei business.'
The truth (as I have geed reason te believe)
is 'want of meney.' J heard a stranger, at
that public meeting, say that you were
seriously embarrassed by seme failure In the
city.
" Let me tell you w hat my ew n pecuniary
posltleu Is In two words. 1 am the childless
widow or a rich man."
Krnest paused. His anticlpiled discovery
et Mrs. Cullender's "charming daughter"
was lu his u.lnd for the moment "That
llttle romance must return uuhe world of
dreams," he thought aud went en wiih the
lftter.
"Alter what 1 ewo te you, 1 don't regard
it as repaying an obligation I consider my
self as merely performing a duty when 1

Krnest looked up from the letter. " What
can this possibly mean ? " he wondered.
But he was tee sensible a man te be con
tout with wondering. He decided en keep.
Ing his engagement
IIIAI'TKII V.
What Docter Jehnsen called "the Inse.
lencoef woalth,"appears far mero frequently
In the boiibes of the rich than In the manners
of the rich. The reason Is plain enough.
Perseual ostentation Is, in the very nature of
It, ridiculous. But the osteuutlou which
exhibits magnificent pictures, priceless china,
and splendid furniture, can purchase geed
tastote guldelt,and can assert itself with
out allerdlng the smallest opening ler a w erd
or depreciation, or a leek ei contempt, in
am wertha million of money, and If i am
dying te show It, I don't ask you te leek at

ducted by a man-servant te the landing en
the first fleer, he found a maid at the deer of
the boudoir, waiting te announce him. Mrs.
Callender advanced te welcome her guest,
In a simple evening dress inirfectly suited te
her age. All that had looked worn and
faded in her line face, by daylight, was new
neftly obscured by shaded tamps. Objects
el beauty surrounded her, which glowed
wiiu Kiiuuueu rauiauce irem ineir uaCR uaCR
greund of selier color. The lnlluence of
appearances Is the strongest of all outward
influence, while li lasts. Ter the moment
the scene produced Itslinprnssleii ou Krnest,
in splte et the terrible anxieties which con
sumed him. Mr. Callender, In his ellke,
wasa woman who had stepped out of her np np np
proprlate sphere. Mrs. Callender, In her
ewu house, was a woman who had risen te n
new place lu his ostlmatien.
"I am atrald veu don't thank me for
forcing you te keep your engagement," she
said, w lib her friendly tones aud her pleasant
smlle.
"Indeed, I thank you," he replied. " Your
beaulltul heuse auifyetir gracious welcome
have persuaded me Inte forgetting my
troubles for a while."
The smlle pissed away from her face.
"Then It Is true" she said, gravely.
"Only tee true,"
She led him te a seat beside her, and
waited te speak again until her maid had
brought In the tea.
"Have you read my letter In the same
Irleudly spirit iu which 1 wrote itT"nhe
asked, when they were alene again.
" 1 have read veur letter gratefully,
but "
" But you don't knew yet what I have te
say. Let us understand each ether befere
we make any objections en either side.
Will you tell me w hat your present position

when my turn come, if veu will honor me

He was ashamed of his hesitation, and he
made amends for It " De you thoroughly
understand me ? " he asked, w hen the w hole
trutu had been laid before her without
reserve.
She summed up tlie result lu her own
words.
"If your overdue ship returns safely,
within a mouth from this time, you can
borrow the money you want without dlftl
culty. if the ship Is lest, you have no alter

"It Is."
"And the si.m jeu require is twenty

"Yes."

" It depends entirely en you "
xnat answer cieseu ins up.
With a comiKwed manner and a stead
hand she poured herself out a cup of tea.
"1 conceal it from jeu," she said , "but I
want confidence. Here" (she pointed te the
cup) "Is the friend of women, rich or peer,
when they are iu traible. What I hive new
te say obliges me te speak in praise of myself.
1 deu't like it let me get It ever as seen as
lean. My husband was very fend of me:
he had the most absolute confidence In my
discretion, ami in my t-ense of duty te him
and et himself. His last words before he
died, were words that thanked me for mak
ing the bappinesH of his lile. As seen as I
had In some degree recovered, after the
affliction that had fallen en me, his lawyer
and executer produced a dpy of his will,
and said there were two clauses lu it which
my husband had expressed a wish that I
should read. It Is needless te &aj that I
obeyed."
She still controlled her agitation but she
was new unable te conceal it Krnest made
an attempt te spare her.
"Am 1 concerned Iu this?" he asked.
"Ye. Before 1 tell you why, I want te
knew what you would de In a" certain case
which I am unwilling even te suppose. I
have beard of men, unable te pay the de
mands made upon them, who began business
again, and succeeded, and iu course et time
paid their creditors."
"And you want te knew il there Is any
likelihood of my following their example?'
he said. " Have you also heird et men who
have made that second ellert who have
tailed again and who have doubled the
debts they owed te their brethren in business
who trusted them I knew one of these
men myself. He committed suicide."
She laid her hand for a moment en his.
11 1 understand jeu," she said. "If ruin
comes "
" If ruin come," he interpesed, "a man
without money and without credit can make
but ene last atonement Don't speak of it
new."
She looked at him vv ith horror. " I didn't
mean that "' sbe said.
"Shall we go back te what you read in tbe
will ? " he suggested
"Yes if you will glve me a minute te
compose myself."
1 IIArlKIt VI.
In less than the minute she bad asked for,
Mrs. Callender was calm enough te go en.
" I new possess what Is called a life-Interest
in my husband's fortune," she siid. "The
monej- is te be divided, at my death, among
charitable Institutions, evxept a certain
event "
"Which Is provided for In the will?"
Krnest added, helping her te go en.
" Yes. I am absolute mistress of the
w hele of the four hundred thousand pounds"
her volce dropped, and her eyes looked
away from him as she spoke the next words
"en this ene condition, that I marry
again."
He looked at her In amazement
"Surely 1 have mistaken you," he said.
"Yeu mean en this ene condition, that jeu
de net marry again ? "
"Ne, .Mr. Lismere; I mean exactlj' what 1
have aald. Yeu knew that the recovery et
j-eur credit and j-eur peace ei mind rests
entirely with yourself."
Altera moment of rellectieu he took her
hand, and raised It respectfully te his lips,
" Yeu are a neble woman ! " he said.
.She made no reply. With drooping head
and downcast eyes sbe waited for his do de do
clslen. He accepted the rosjiensibillty.
"I must net, and dare net, think of the
hardship of my own position," he said; "I
ewe it te you te speak without referonce te
the future that maj- be In store for me. Ne
man can be worthy of the sacrifice which
your generous fergetfuluess of yeurself Is
willing te make. I rospect you ; I admire
you; I thank jeu with my whole heart
Leave me te my fate, Mrs. Challender and
let me go."
He rose. She stepped him bj' a gesture.
"A young woman," she answered, " would
shrink from saying what 1, as an old
woman, mean te say new. I refuse te leave
you te your fate, I ask j-eu te prove that
j'eu respect me, admire me, nud thank me
with your whele heart Take ene day te
think and let me hear the result Yeu
promlsemo this?"
He premised.
" New go," she said.
CIIAI'TUII Ml.
The next morning Krnest recelved a letter
from Mm. Callender. hhe wroteto hint as
fellows :
"There are Betne considerations which I
ought te have mentioned yesterday evenlug,

"I ought te have reminded you II you

Thej- decided ou pursuing their Jouruey
as far I Munich.
Mrs. Hsuiore's taste for music was in itch
oil by Krnest's taste for minting, lu his
leisure hours he cultlv ated the art, and de
lighted lu It The picture galleries of Mu
nich were almost the only galleries In Ku
rope which be had net seen. True te the en
iraceiiienL te which she had pledged herself,
hi wife was willing te go wherever it
might please him te take her. Te ene sug
gestion she made vvastb.it they should hire
iuriiished apartments. If thej- lived In a ho
tel friends et the husband or the wife (visi (visi
ters llke themselves te the famous city)
might sec their names in the book, or might
meet them at the deer
They were seen established iu a houe
large enough te provlde them with everj- ac
commodation wnich they required.
Krnest' daj-s were passed in the gillerles ,
Mrs. Llsmere remaining at home, deveted tt
her music until It was time te go out with
her husband for a drive. Living together in
perfect amity and concord, they were never
theless net living liappllj-. Without any
visible reason for the change, Mrs. Llsiuore's
spirits were depressed. On the one occasion
w non i;ruesi neiRed u sne rnaue an eiien ie
be cheerful, which It distressed him te see.
He allowed her te think that she had re
liev ed him of anj- future anxiety. Whatever
doubts he might feel were doubts delicately
concealed from that time forth.
But w lieu two people are living together In
a state or artificial tranquility. It seems te be
a law of nature that the elements of disturb
ance gather unseen, and that the outburst
comes inevitably with the lapse of time.
in ten davsirem tue uaie ei meir arrival
at Munich tbe crisis came. Krnest returned
later than usual from the picture gallerj-, ami
for the first time in his wife's experience
shut blmself up iu hi own rcem.
He appeared at the dinner hour with a fu
tile excue. Mrs. Lismere waited until the
servant had withdrawn. " New, Krnest,"
she said, " it's time te tell me the truth."
"Her manner, when she said these few
words, took hlui by surprise, hhe was un
questionably ceufued ; aud, Instead of look
ing at him she trilled with the fruit en her
plate. Kmbarrassed ou his side, he could
enlv answer, I have nothing te tell."
" Were there many visitors at the gallery'"
alie asked.
" About the s uue as usual."
" Any that j-eu particularly noticed "'
she went en. "I mean, among the la
dles." He laughed uneally. " Yeu forget how hew
Interested I am In the picture, 'he said.
There w as a pause, she looked up at him
and suddenly looked away again, but he
saw it plainly ; there were tears in her eyes.
"De you mind turning down the gas?"
she said. "My eyes have been weak all
day."
iie complied with her request the mere
readily, having his own rea-sens for being
clad te escape the glaring scrutiny of the
light
"I think I will rest a llttle en the efa,"
she resumed. In the posltleu which he oc
cupied ills back would have been new
turned en her. Sbe stepped him when he
tried te move his chair. "1 would rather
net leek at you, Krnest," she said, "when
j-eu have lest confidence In me."
Net the words, but the tone, touched all
that was genereus and noble in his nature.
He left his place and knelt belde her, and
opened te her bis w hole heart
CItAPTEIl x.
" Am I net unvverthj- of yuu 1 ' he asked
when It was ever.
Sbe pressed his hand In silence.
" 1 should be the most ungrateful wretch
living," he said, " If I did net think of you,
and you only. New that my confessldn Is
made, we will leave Munich te-morrow, and
if resolution can help me, I will only re
member the sweetest woman my eyes ever
looked en as the creature of a dream."
She hid her face en his breast, and remind
ed him of that lelter of her writing, which
had decided the course of their live.
" When 1 thought you might meet the
happy woman In my lifetime, I said te j'eu,
1 Tell me or it, and I premise te tell her that
she has only te wait' Tlme must pass, Kr
nest, berore it can boneodlul te perrerm my
premise, but you might let me see her. If
you lind her in the gallery te-morrow, veu
might bring her here."
Mrs. Llsmere's request met with no refu
sal. Krnest was only at a less te knew hew
te grant it
" Yeu tell me she U a copyist of pictures,"
his wire reminded blm. " She will be Inter
ested iu hearlng of the portfolio of drawings
by the great French artists which I Ixjueut
ler you in Paris. Ask her te oemo and see
them, nnd te tell you If she can make some
copies. And say, It you ilke, that I shall be
glad te become acquainted with her."
He felt her heart beating fast en his besom.
In the fear that she might lese all control
ever herself, be tried te rolleve her by
speaking lightly. " What an Invention
jeurs Is I" he Bald. " If my wife ever tries
te deceive me, I shall be a mere child In her
hands."
She rese abruptly from the sofa kissed
him en the forehead and said wildly, I
shall be better In bed I" Bofero he could
meve or speak sbe had left him.
ClIATTEn XI.
The next morning he knocked at the deer
et his wife's room and asked hew she had
passed the night
" I have slept badly," ahe answered, " and
I must beg you te excuse my absence at
breakfast-time." She called him back as he
was about te withdraw. " Remember," she
said, " when j-eu rut urn from the gallerv
te day, I exiect that veu will net return
alene."
Three hours later he was at home again.
The young lady's services as a cepj'lst were
at his disposal ; sbe had returned with him
te leek at thu drawings.
The sitting room was empty when they on en on
terod It He rang for his wlfe'K maid, and
was informed that Mrs. Lismere had gene
out Refusing te believe the woman, he
went te his wife's apartments. She was net
te be found.
When he returned te the sitting room, the
yeuni; lady was net unnaturally otlended.
He could make allowances for her being a
llttle out of temper at the slight that had been
put upon her ; but he was inexpressibly dis
concerted by the manner almost the cearse
manner In which she expresses! herself.
" I have lioen ttlkiug te your wlre'H maid
whlle you have been away I" Bhe Bald. " I
llnd you have married an old lady for her
money. She Is Jealous of me, of course ?"
" Let me beg you te alter your opinion,"
he answered. " Yeu are wronging my w lie;
she Is iucapable of any such feeling as j-eu
attribute tn her." J
The young lady laughed. "At any rate,
J'eu are a geed husband," she sjld satiric
?!Jy'. ,".Hul'i"e you ewu the truth?
Wouldn't you like her better if she was
yeuug and pretty like me ?"
He was net merely surprised he was
disgusted. Her beauty had se completely
fasclnated him when he first saw her that the
Idea of associating any want.el rellnement
and geed breedlug with such a charming
creature never entered bis mind. The dtsen-
clisnlment of him was already se complete
that he was even disagreeably ntlected by the
tone of her voice , It was almost as repellent
te him as the exhibition of unrestrained lud
temper w hlch she seemed perlectlj- careltn
te conceal.
" I confess you surprlse nu," he aald
coldly.
The replj produced ueetlect ou her. On
the contrary, she became mero Insolent than

" 1 hav en fertile faucj," she went en, "anil

There are seme who maintain that the first

There Is a geed tnxik which fetches thai
"tholevoof money is the root of all evil,"
and experience and observation clenrlj- con

But the leaching el that same book, when
It sn, " "seek ye first the kingdom of ited
ami Hi righteousness, mid nil these things
i tints neeiwsiry for our earthlj- wants)
will i n added unto jeu," Is net se readily
accepted. '1 he first and nuut Important ob

New it might easily be shown that the
w ant of bread and butter I net the greatest
want te which man may be subjected, that
the want of the mind and heart nre harder
te be endured than the wants of the body ,
but we wish at present te show, that this
teaching, that the pursuit of physical nnd
worldly geed I the primary pursuit lu life,
tlele.it Its own ebject It is net these, n a
class who nre taught te seek a higher geed
In education for It own sake, and tbe culti
vation of the moral and religious nature n n
geed nlieve all ether geed, who fail te secure
n living iu the world, but rather theso who
see and seek no hlcher geed than te eat and
drink. The dllllculty lies net In the pcople
net knowing hew te mike a living, but
rather In faults lu their moral development,
that se many fall te get aleug In life. Ami
this wrong moral develepment has its chlel
source lu toutrelng the soul ou mere worldly
geed.
The Bible Is unquestionably right lu held
ing up the love of menej', ami the leve of the
world, anil making our chief concern what
w e shall eat and what we shall drink and
wherewithal we shall be clothed, as it great
evil Instead of a great ge.nl. By making this
the chief object of pursuit man net only Ioeh
the higher geed providing ler the wants of
his higher nature but he loses the lower
geed as well. The cemi Is like that of the deg
crossing a stream with a plece of feed In hi
mouth, which, upon seeing the Image of Iho
feed In the water, and taking It ler some
thing better than he had, plunged ufler the
image and se let both what he had and
what he sought Instead thoreel.

Wocaunet well doubt the slncoritj-er these
(tally preachers et the utilitarian bread-and-butter

te proclaim It Daj bj-day we have It re
iterated that our schools and colleges are nil
wrong, nnd our ( hurches are no better, be
cause they will net te.ii h that te make a geed

True, their teaching does net seem te have
much effect, for the schools and colleges aud
churche go right en preaching and leaching
another doctrine. Their "following" seems
te liueveii smaller than that or the churches,
which, tbej' say, only woman attend anj
mere. N obed y noems te notice their dally
berating of the schools and colleges. Te keep
en preaching a theory under such circum
stances seems at least te Indicate their sin
cerlty. But sincerity alene does pet ensure
tbe truth of w hat Is taught
Kven the study of Latin and (.reek Is net
given up at the tiehest of se prominent n
man as Charlts 1 rands Adams. Tbe ten
dency Is rather te devote mere tlme te make
It mero thorough. And we rather think Iho
lenera de Dr McCosh, whebas spent a long
life in the work of ttactilug, will he sustained
in telllni; the young men under his care that
they should net make the worldly geed of
seeking phynical sustenance and wealth the
chief end el life. It harmonizes well with
the teaching et ene who spake as never man
spake, when he warned his disciples net te
have undue care for what they should eat
and drink, and wherewithal they should
be clothed, for after all these things de the
gentiles t heathen j sock. Our argument Is,
that theso who seek a higher geed In educa
tion and religion will net fail te knew how hew how
te provlde for the lower wants of the liedy
also, and thus fulfill the Saviour's premise
that "all these things shall he added unto
them."
