"I envy you, Camilla, more than any
Vi'oman In the world."
"Ytt I linvc had my troubles. Polly,"
Camilla replied.
Mrs. Bclloirs shook her head. "Noth
ing to speak of, surely."
"Well, you know, marrying poor, dear
Philip when I was not the least in love
With' him. Mother Insisted, and after
all, It turned out for the beat. Ho
formed In fact, ho cultivated me,
turned mq from a raw school clrl Into
a fennne du nionde, and left me a free
woman before my hair was Bray. It
keep) Uh color well, don't you think?"
"Your linlr Is still yellow naturally.
Though four years a widow you aro
only Jive and twenty."
"O, don't pay 'yellow' such a de
testable color, like a canary sitHgesttvo
of a beaky nose and sallow checks!"
protested Camilla.
"But you were speaking of your hus
band "
"Y(s poor Philip. Ho always told me
lie was consumptive In earlier days, as
an Inducement to marry him."
Camilla hated herself as she spoke
It wns a way she had drifted Into un
der Mrs. Bellalrs influence. Her friend
seemed to expect frivolity from her,
and smiled npprcclatlnRly.
"Ah, Camilla, you have everything
j;oiith, health, Independence, You nro
riot even burdened with a family, nnd
certainly make the most of life. Hut
sometimes, dear, I think, you know,
you are Just a little too well, too un
conventional." "Indeed! Do tell mo of my Indiscre
tions; It would bo so very interesting."
Camilla clasped her hands and tried
not to smile.
"They are hardly worthy mention
ing. I was only thinking of Mr. Wil
son." "Mr. "Wilson not worth mentioning?
Polly, I cannot let you Insult my
friends."
"You know what I mean," murmured
Mrs. Bellalrs, lowering her voice con
fidentially; "six waltzes running, and
then a cozy corner for the rest of the
evening."
"But I went to supper with Mr. Nor
rls." "And ate half a sandwich before run
ning away. Yes, ho told me about it
afterwards. Of course It Is quite ex
cusablo that you should like Mr. "Wil
son, a most attractive man; but his
reputation "
"What about his reputation?"
"I never care to repeat scandal, but
"O, stop! I know you nro going to
tell me sonneting horrla. and I would
rather not hear. I wish' so many nice
people had not bad reputations. I am
expecting him to tea this afternoon;
perhaps you will not care to meet
him?"
"Thanks, dear" kissing Camilla af
fectionately "I always take a hint; It
is one of my talents."
"No, Polly, no; I really did not mean
But Mrs. Bellalrs was already half
way down tho stairs, confronting Mr.
Wilson.
"I am almost tempted to stay," she
paid, shaking her hands; "but an ap
pointment with my dentist"
The hall door closed and Camilla
found herself alone in the drawing
mom with Mr. Wilson.
"I am glad you have come," she said.
"Are you?'' he answered. "I almost
wish that you wore aorry."
"Why?"
"Because I am going away, and I do
not want you to miss mo. Camilla, you
have made my life happier better; for
give me if I shock you, but you are tho
only woman I have ever respected.
Nothing evil can touch you. I wish I
were more worthy of your friendship."
A strange thrill of wonder and joy
passed through Camilla. She felt in
stinctively that over this man at least
sho had an lnllucnce for good, that with
him sho escaped from the frivolous side
of her nature to her real her better
self.
"No," she said, "I am not good; but
sometimes I feel that It Is In me to bo
good if I would only try myself give
myself tho chance. I am so fond of the
world and tho world's amusements all
my time Is taken up with pleasure; nnd
I am not tired yet not bias.--. But lutely
I have been thinking. My idea may
startle you, and you will cnll it fur
fetched, and you will say I ntn in earn
est." "You look sincere," he answered. "I
think I shall believe you."
"I want to enjoy my life In my own
set, among my own people, and I find
I cannot do this wltha clear conscience;
so I have made a resolve, and a very
difficult one. I am going to give one
year out of my life to God."
"How shall ypu do that what plan
have you fornled?"
"A simple and at the samo time a
hard plan. None of my friends is to
know where I am or where I go. I Just
intend to vanish oft the face of their
earth for 12 months' hard labor. All my
llttlo vanities, my extravagances, must
be 'gven up, burled, forgotten. One
half of London does not care to learn
or know how the other half lives. I am
going to find out for myself, to settle in
the very heart vt the East End, dressed
ns a Sister of Charity, to live and
work assuch, You made me think of
it by saynig I had influenced you for
good." v-
I know I feel that I can Influence
people, and 1 have always used this
power for pu?ely selfish motives. Nuw
I am going to try to exert It over poor

tempted, wretched creatures, to glvo
myself a wider field.
A bed sitting room in a cheap lodg
ing, the July sun creeping vhroiigh a
iii'ull window, and the 'ljuri of Ca
milla writm.T ty a deal table.
"So it'a cer," she said, with n sigh
of relief, "the long, hard year."
She folded her letter and added It to
a pile at her side.
"How strango to bo picking up tho
threads Just where I dropped them, a
year ago. I wonder If I have really
been missed I wonder If my disap
pearance made any difference to any
body?" She thought over the last twelve
months, contrasting them with the
Jest of her life, and as she meditated
saw again Incident upon Incident pass,
picture-like, before licr eyes.
The first difficult struggle, when the
absence of little comforts seemed al
most like the rending of body and soul,
and then the rush of active work
among a class of busy workers morn
ing, noon, night, every hour needed,
every minute of Importance. Tho de
light, too, of finding herself a power
by means of the money she had hither
to Bpent In the world of fashion, to iro
about doing good. She remembered the
fatigue and horror sho experienced
when first visiting the squalid scenes
where the field of her labors lay. Then
the thrill of pleasure when faces lit up
and smiled, when lives brightened, and
men and women seemed happier for her
presence; and, last of all, the forgetful
ness of self which molded her charac
ter and turned her from a buttcrtly
into a woman.
But now, stifled by the heat of tho
slums, nnd yet with the keen appre
ciation for enjoyment still flowing
through her veins, she was to return to
the old life and the pleasurable ways.
The rretty house in AV'Impolc street
was to Ik? opened out again for two or
three weeks of the fleeting season,
and Camilla would return to the bosom
of her friends, to bloom again In the
llowcr-garden of her own world.
She got up und moved about the nar
row room with light tread and dancing
eyes; sho laushed aloud at her
thoughts; she clasped her hands over
hot- heart, marveling at its rapid beat
ing. "I shall go as I came," sho said,
"without a word of good-bye to any
one. Tomorrow I shall drive away
vanish! I shall hate to be thanke-J, to
listen to gratitude or blessings It
would make me feel a brute for going.
I stepped out of my own groove, ana
I must step back again. The children
here call me 'the good fairy' I will
keep up the mystery to tlie end."
Camilla was resting on the sofa, try
ing to read a lovel, when Mrs. Bellalrs
was announced.
She sprang up with a cry of pleasure,
and Hung her arms around the visit
or's neck.
"O, Polly, dear," this Is nice seeing
you ngaln!"
Mrs. Bellalrs disentangled herself
from the embrace, greeting Camilla
less cordially.
"You were lying down, were you
not?" she said. "I am afraid that I
disturbed you."
"I had a headache, but you will take
It away. I have so much' to talk about
I do not know where to bpgln."
Camilla drew a chair forward as sho
spoke.
"What gave you a headache heat?"
"No worry! Tell me, Polly what does
It all mean? I've been away only a
year, and yet I seem to have lost touch
with everybody. Why do people look at
me coldly? Ah, I have noticed It, you
need not Bhako your head. Why do they
avoid me, as If I were a criminal? Our
lives are our own, to do ns we please
with. One would almost Imagine, be
cause I have chosen to absent myself,
to go Into retirement for a year, that
people thought "
But Camilla broke off, ns If her sen
tence was not worth finishing.
"Well, dear, people will think, and
people will talk there is no stopping
them. Your conduct was certainly
strange, and, if innocent, misleading."
Camilla sprang to her feet, her color
mantling In her checks, lips quivering,
eyes flashing.
"What are you daring to Insinuate?"
she asked.
"I insinuate nothing. What have you
to say for yourself?"
The retort staggered Camilla. "To
say for myself?' she asked.
"Yes, to repudiate the scandal."
"I I don't understand." Her face
turned pale.
"It Is very simple. Last summer your
niime, unfortunately, was coupled with
a certain Mr. Wilson," snld Mrs. Bel
lalrs, eyeing Camilla sternly; "ho went
away, you went away no one knew
you were going; he has Just returned,
you have Just returned In tho mean
while your hldlng-placo has been kept
secret. We may open our eyes, we may
look ut you askance, but we do not
condemn you, Camilla, because"
"Enough! I have been Insulted suffi
ciently. Listen," and a hard laugh
broke from her: "I will satisfy your
curiosity. While society lias been
spreading Its vllo slanders I have been
working, slaving, month ufter month,
in tho poorest r;ar'sli In th'o Bast End
of London. I need not trouble you
with details, why I did It, my motives,
or what I gained. I think it has taught
economy. Made only by
mo to despise you nil. I hopo It has."
Her voice broke. She turned away.
"You a charity worker! My poor Ca
milla, do not, pray, expect us to be
lieve, that! For heaven's sake, try nnd
thlnl: of something more reasonable."
Mrs. Bellalrs moved slowly to th'o
door. Cumllla faced her defiantly, and
tried to Bpeak, but her voice failed her.
Sho wns choking, suffocating with in
dignation. Tho door opened and closed
again. Mrs. Bellalrs had gone.
Tho room swam round. Camilla stag
gered back to tho sofa. "O Cod, to bo
so misjudged!" Tho Sketch.

Special Correspondence of Tho Tribune.
Saratoga, N. Y July 16. Tho ever
changing panorama of Saratoga life
Interests tho new-comer, or any
one fond of noise and confusion;
the observation of people or their var
ious toilettes affording much amuse
ment to those interested in such mat
ters. Breakfast dresses are compara
tively simple pretty lawns, white
piques, fine linen crashes, oftentimes
having the jacket lined with blue
which shows ns tho revcrs turns back.
Light-weight wool suits too, with an
Eton or blazer Jacket on cool morn
ings (preferably the latter) and a blue
checked or stripped, or plaited Liberty
silk, or tucked lawn front, or tho in
evitable independent klrt and waist
(the arch-enemy to suits) the latter
of organdie, lawn, lappet, dimity, grass
linen over a color, changeable silk,
checked or stripped silk, or as a change
white embroidered yokes over a plain
dress.
VEItY HANDSOME.
Large, French gilt enameled chate
laines, attached to one side of the waist
are a very pretty addition to a plain
skirt, and from the clasp hangs by sep
arate chains, a tablet, pencil, bon-bon
box, mirror, puff-box and vinaigrette.
A change Is not unfrequently made in
these articles, as a pen-knife, sen-sen
box, court-plaster case or stamp box,
may be substituted, und any or all of
them are often worn by bicycle riders.
Neglige costumes come In for their
share of ndmlratlon, mndo of pink or
blue silk, crepo do Chlno, or colored
brocade, usually having a Watteau
plait at the back, and long laco flchus
are sometimes attached to the should
ers at either side of the front edged
with deep lace, and fall to the lower
edge of the gown. From each side of
the Watteau plait, wide laco is brought
over the shoulders to tho front, ar
ranged in jacket effects, by means of
a piece added to the shoulder, or meets
a full lace front, and a half-tight belt
Is of satin folds or wide ribbon. Some
sleeves are puffed at tho top, and alter
nate satin or lace bands extend to the
cuff, which Is always trimmed; others
are tucked in groups below a puff, in
mousquetnire style.
EABLY AFTERNOON.
Is the lazy part of the day at Saratoga;
children play under the trees; lovers
seek quiet nooks to tell tho "old, old
story," and matrons sitting on the ho
tel verandas discuss various subjects
besides fashion, their conversation na
turally recurring to the wonderful ben
efit derived from the new food product
Somatose; which In very small bulk
contains a large amount of available
nutriment. In the shape of the album
inous principles of meat In a form most
favorable for Immediate absorption
and ready assimilation. There seems
to be no condition of exhaustion con
sequent upon disense to which Somo
tose Is not applicable, particularly In
tho case of very young children, or
those whose nppetite has failed com
pletely, and as this valuable tonic Is
easily dissolved in milk, tea or water
tho patient need not be awnre of Its
admlnistiatlon. Somatose is especially
valuable In maintaining the strength
of young mothers, wth nursing chil
dren. HANDSOME AFTERNOON COS
TUMES begin to appear towards four o'clock
when gay parties go to Saratoga lake
or elsewhere, and a beautiful dress
worn by a rosy young matron, was of
plaited gray grenadine over gray satin
with a yellow silk waist, and a wide
black accordeon plaltedchlffon scurf al
most covered the back, and was
brought under the nrms up to the bust
and tied there with a largo bow and
ends. A black chiffon sash with long
ends was fastened at the back and
black chiffon sleeves were gathered
over yellow silk, In Bernhardt style,
finished by pearl gray gloves. The hat
was a yellow rice straw, trimmed with
six gray and black ostrich plumes, and
five or six yellow roses nestled under
the brim. A parasol of plaited yellow
Liberty silk, edged by a black chiffon
ruflle, completed an extremely delicate
and rellned costume.
GRASS LINEN OR LINEN BATISTE
Is in order at all hours of the day.
Round yokes trimmed with Russian
lace on a plain dress are always ac
ceptable; elegant waists embroidered in
floral sprays, also afternoon or even
ing dresses embroidered In white flow
ers with colored silk beneath, A very
pretty one over pink silk has a white
embroidered border around tho skirt,
below which is a narrow pink silk ruf
flo and another of plain batiste. The
waist Is full with the whole front cov
ered by embroidery and nnother large
spray at the back. The sleeves aro
composed of a wide rufllo with em
broidered border above a pink silk ruf
lle set In the arm hole and four or five
tucks are on tho outside of the sleeve,
with an embroidered design at the cuff.
A very wide pink silk and batiste rib
bon sash is tied nt tho back, with a
collar of similar ribbon.
A BEAUTIFUL EVENING DRESS
made for a prominent society belle, was
of substantial white silk, with a ruffle
around tho lower edge of the skirt. An
upper skirt of white net (open meshed)
has three wldo lace flounces, tho two
upper ones drooping at tho front and
high at tho back. Between theso lace
flounces were two narrow white net
ruffles, edged by white Liberty silk
plaltlngs, headed by a looped white silk
gimp, one ruffle falling Just a llttlo
above the other, Tho net corsage was
a very low round neck, drawn full over
white silk and a laco bertha was draped
around tho shoulders, forming the
sleeve at tho same time. An elegant
white silk sash tied at the back gave
completion to one of the most lovely
costumes of the season,
Fannie Field.

Anil Ho Didn't Want tho llditorto
Win Appreciation In Ills I'anilly.
From the Detroit Free Press.
"F.unny tldng." laughed the Jovial
promotor, who was entertaining some
of his prospective victims at tho cafe
'The maddest man I ever saw wau thut
same smooth-voiced old gentleman
that Just left us. When I first went to
the Northwest It was as a boomer,
nnd tho syndicate I wns operating for
set me up In the newspaper business.
The prlmury purpose waB to attract
settlers, sell land nnd glvo tho friends
of my people political control; but to
get circulation I had to Interest readers
all over tho country. Ope scheme Iti
this direction wnB to run the spiciest
I ertonnl column that I could put up.
There wasn't a. man who came to this
placo that I didn't glvo n send-off to
attract general attention. I wasn't
embarrassed by any regard for the
facts and avoided unpleasant conse
quences by using fictitious names or
initials.
"One day the same old gentleman
dropped down in our midst. It must
have been twenty years ago. I pictured
him as an Adonis, a youth of the court
liest manners nnd most mugnetlc
Qualities. A week later he came Into
my llttlo offlco with a look that would
cause the average man to tnke to his
heels. His fnce was colorless and
drnwn. Ills eyes glittered and he
ground his teeth when ho was not talk
ing. He spread a letter In front of-me,
and then paced the floor, it was a
dainty little missive, with the faint
odor of violets. It told what tho fair
writer had read In my paper and how
It had filled her with a desire to know
such a manly paragon. Sho sought a
correspondence, and asked for a pic
ture. I began to laugh nnd chaff In
order to pacify my caller. But he
flourished the letter In one hand, hit
the table with the other and shouted,
'The writer of that Is my daughter,
sir.""
HELPED WIFE TO A DIVOUCE.
An Indiana Lawyer Whoso Chivalry
Wns AIwuvk on Tap.
From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
"I sec by the papers that a St. Louis
man has sued himself In a business
controversy," said James D. Bothwell,
of Vlncennes, Ind., yesterday at tho
I lanters'. "This may be a strango in
cident.but I know of a case that beats."
"Down in my section of the country
there is a prosperous young lawyer.
W hen he was a student he fell in love
with one of tho sweetest girls I ever
met. She Is the daughter of a wealthy
gentleman and, although the lawyer
had brilliant prospects, the young
lady's parents discouraged the match,
becnuse, to tell the truth, the girl was
In love with the young man. But in
spite of parentnl opposition tho couplo
were married. For awhile everything
went well, but th! old grudge against
the young man still rankled In the
minds of the parents, and matters be
came so desperate with the young hus
band that ho went away. When he re
turned he found that his wife had sued
him for divorce. It was the culmina
tion of her parents' hatred for him.
The husband saw tho petition and im
mediately found that It was deficient.
He called on his wife, and there was a
long Interview, during which the mat
ter of the petition came up. He said
that his wife was under nn Influence
that hnd made her determined, so he
decided to be manly. 'My dear," he
said," you cannot get a divorce on this
petition. It Is faulty. No court In the
world would receive such a plea. Let
me help you out.' Then the husband
set to work and drew up another peti
tion. In It he made himself defendant.
It was on this petition that his wife
was divorced from him. The divorce
,broke the hearts of both and they are
now living most wretched lives. They
love each other, nnd, If the woman has
one consolation, 4t Is that her former
husband Is prospering and growing
constantly In affluence and ability. I
believe that this couple will be re
united. The young man deserves the
love that his beautiful' former wife still
bears for him."

PAPEIl DIUNKINU COr.
A Sanitary Idea with tliu Advnntngo
of Economy.
A paper manufacturer of Elbcrfleld,
Germany, hns recently patented quits
a novelty, which hns a great future,
particularly for advertising purposes.
It Is a substitute for a drinking glass
and may best bo styled a cup made of
paper. The Idea Is well executed. The
drinking cup Is so small that It may be
carried In the pockctbook, and It en
ables tho traveler on foot or on a wheel
to always have his own clean drinking
glass: It Is so cheap that It may' be
thrown away after having been used
but once, or when It has served Its pur
pose. Theso paper drinking cups are of
a strong yello ,v pnper, provided with a
leather-like surface, and are absolutely
water-tight. Th'o outer surface may,
of course, be used for advertisements,
and while advertisements given away
In this shape will probably be of much
value, the cost Is llttlo more than If
tho same advertisement had been
printed on plain paper. Tho new cup
Is alyo made square nnd with a cover
to admit tho selling of Ice cream, etc.,
tho boxes being folded away Into a
minimal space until used.
Something Similar.
From tho Indianapolis Journal.
"Last night I dreamed I was dead,"
said the drummer from Indianapolis.
"And the heat woke you up," the drum
mer hastened to ask.
"Pretty much tho same thing as what
you Imply. Tho brakenian was calling
out 'Chicago I' "
WAIL OF THE UNPAID TAII.OIl.
A prominent, distinguished, and a most
successful tailor I,
With much mora than tho usual sharo
of faahlonab'o trnde,
But though nt wayward fortune's rule
no sour, dyspeptic raller I,
It's hard to view with pleasure vast
bills that remain unpaid.
My customers dislike to settlo up they
hate to pay at ail
Though when a man owes money, It has
always scorned to me.
To dodge a tradesman In that fashion's
certainly no way at all; ,
It all depends upon the point of view
I'm forced to ice.
To coHect, try as I will,
I am sure to find out still.
Each customer a strong objection has to
pay his bill;
He thinks It best of fun
Up a ten years' bill to run,
Paying not the least attention to a lettir
or a dun.
I'vo known a man to yearly give away
large sums tc. charity,
To patronize with eagerness a most
Quixotic scheme;
Yet never settlo small accounts Just no
tice the disparity
Of all debtors' vagaries that surely Is
the cream.
He'd keep a tine establishment and live
with gieut persistency
Beyond his income In a manner that
was rather rash;
But to avoid his bill he'd go a-yachtlng to
a distant sea,
And cable mo that I might whistle for
the blooming cash!
For to pay what one may owe
Is tho worst of form, and so
Tho tailor, most unfortunate, he rarely
sees the dough;
That's a very vulgar phrase,
But I'm ;n a perfect maze
Of doubt regarding "gentlemen" and
"honor" nowadays!
