have had some good in her for the
girl to have loved her bo.
We had said nothing about John
as yet That was to come.
Fleurette, I shall write to John
to-night What uhall I tell him ?"
Her black eyelashes were now only
visible.
"What can yon tell him? lou
promised to guard my secret"
"I f hall, at least, tell him I have
found you, and then he must take
his own course."
Oh. don't let him come here,
pleaded the girl. 1 could not bear
to pee him; and perhaps," she added,
with a faltering voice, "he doesn't
care to nere anvunng auuut,
. i .
me
mow." !
Ah, Fleurette, Fleurette! after all,
on pome points you are only a weak
woman. 1
Tlie next day I begged leave of
aWnee from my partner and pa
tient, and ran down to Dalabry to
tell John the news.
Yet 1 had little enough to tell him.
I was in honor bound to guard the
eirl6 secret so all I could say was
1 had found her again ; that 6he was
as bewitching as ever, and I believed,
loved him stilL I could -add that
now I knew the reason why she
could not come to him, and I was
compelled to own it was a weighty
one an obstacle I coald give no
hope would be removed for many
years. He must be content with
that ; it was all the news, al the hope,
1 had to give him.
"Very well," said John, with a
sigh, "I must wait All things come
to the man who waits ; so perhaps
Fleurette will come to me at last"
Now that I had found Fleurette,
ou may be Bure I was not going to
ose eight of her again. I was much
grieved to ascertain that her mother's
circumstances were not bo good as of
old. Some rascal who possessed the
widow's confidence had decamped
with a large sum of money. Our
Fleurette eked out their now scanty
income by painting on china; and
very cleverly the girl copied the
birds and flowers on the white plates.
She never complained, but to me it
was more than vexatious to think
there was a good home waiting for
her if her mother '8 faults would allow
her to accept it Now and again I
would give John tidings of her. lie
never sought her, being far too proud
to come until she sent for him ; and
as in the course of the next twelve
months the unhappy Mrs. Dorvaux
experienced three or four rolapses, I
could see little chance of John ever
getting the message he waited for.
I begged Fleurette to persuade her
mother to euter a home for inebri
ates, but the girl would not even
broach the subject to her; so here
was youth drilling away from John
and Fleurette kept apart for the
sake of a wretched woman, and I
was powerless to mend matters.
Mut did John and fleurette ever
marry ? You see this is not a ro
mance, only a little tale of real life,
and as such the only way out of the
deadlock was a sad and prosaic one
away that poor Heurette could
not even wish for. lie formation, I
say, as a medical man, was out of trie
question. 1 hope r leurette will not
read these paces, where 1 am com
lelled to express my true feelings,
by saying that, a short time after a
year had expired, Mrs. Dorvaux was
obliging enough to die. I say
"obliging" advisedly, for, Bad though
it be to think bo, her death made
three jeople happy ; indeed, as her
life was bo miserable to her, it may
be I should have 6aid four. Fleu
rette mourned her sincerely ; all her
faults were buried in her grave, and
left to be forgotten. Two months
after her death I wrote to John, bade
him come to town, without even
warning Fleurette, sent him to see
her. Then he found that all things
do indeed come to the man who can
wait ever the love that seemed so
hopeless and far away.
1 don't think John ever knew, or,
unless he reads it here, ever will
know, the true reason why Fleurette
refused him and shunned him for so
long. He knows, from what I told
him, it was a noble, self-sacrificing,
and womanly motive that led her to
reject his love, and is content with
knowing this. He feels the subject
must be ever painful to his bright
little wife, and has never caused her
pretty eyes to grow dim by asking
for an explanation. There is no
sadness with Fleurette now. She
lights up that old red brick house ;
she is the life of Dalebury, and,
moreover, the one wowan against
whom Dalebury says little or noth
ing. The last time I was down there I
rowed Fleurette a long way up the
shallow 6tream. Not only Fleurette,
but a couple of children as well
dark-eyed, bonny boys, who chatter
in French and English indiscrimi
nately. As we passed the spot
where the a aquatic escapade took
place, I turned with a smile to my
sister ; but before I could speak she
said, beseachingly
"Don't please -dont Old mem
ories are ever sad. The present is
happy, the future promises fair let
us lorget
And as she spoke, for a moment I

The pins used in this country are
made by fourteen factories, chiefly
located in England. The annual
production for several years past has
been about 7,010,000,000 pins. This
number has been varied much lor
some years, the demand remaining
about the same. Two years ago the
competition among the nine princi
pal companies then existing for the
manufacture of toilet pins led to
such a cutting of prices that the bus
iness became unprofitable, and the
market was flooded with goods. A
year ago a combination was formed
of three wire companies, and now
all the pins made by them are chip
ped to New York, and haodled by
the head agency of that city. From
their common warehouses thev are
sent to every part of the country.
The importation of English pins is
small; and the importation of pins
from the United States are confine
to Culm, South America and parts of
vuua. taigiana supplies almost
the whole world outside of the Uni
ted States, although the American
pins are not inferior in quality. The
raw material the brass and iron
wire from which all American Dins
are made is from the wire mills of
wis country, and much of the ma
chinery is of American invention

The surplus gold is actually needless, Ia

waste is saved, and BOLrnmr and
FTRXXQTH increased by a simple process,
at one-half the cot. A plato of solid
gold is soldered on each side of a plate
tr hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
ted rollers. From this the cases, backs,
penters, bezels, eta, are cut and shaped by
dies and formers. The gold is thick
enough to admit of all kinds of chasing,
pngraying and engine turning. These
