and then to Wallie. Tho latter grasiied
it cordially, mid swined about to sav
Bonietliing, but suddenly chocked hiin
K'lf, and lisiki'd at ber with an odd. per
plexed expression, iiko a man who is
ti.ken by suiiirise. .Doubtless much
beauty would bo a sui-prise to 4iny one.
After n inoinent's hesitation hr said.
Tin glad to welcome yon to this coun
try, mademoiselle, i hope yon will learn
to fool like an American ns much ns ynu
already look like one."
"Thank you: if it is American to feel
happy then I am one," she answered,
and it was observtvbla as she spoke that
this foreign lady's pronunciation was re
markably accaruto. Wallie forbore to
make (he observatMm, however; he only
took .his chin between his thumb and
forefinger with a quietly smiling look.
Mrs. Cadwiilnder said: "Wht deli
cious luce, Mademoiselle Marana! It is
like frost work on iuory. Will jvu take
a cup '4 tea?"
AIlWi. Marana deer; nod, and presently
the other guests begin to arrive.
Them was Mr. Brnvliffo, a wool mer
chant, but for social purposes an ami
tear com poser. He was a small, slender,
lively nan, with gray hair and an im
niense gray mnstache, like a great bar
across the lower part of his face; bn had
Che air of always standing on tiptoe to
peep across this bar with a sportive,
twinkling expression. There was Mr.
Bidgood, a rosy, roistering, spherical
Certs muge, bald headed and short of
reath; he smiled nt yon with a pene
trating look, as if there wore a private
joke between you and himself which it
would cot do to mentiou.
There was Mr. Orasmere, toll, courtly
and romantic, with a resonant voice and
an occasional gleam from beneuth his
tipper eyelids, as if his soul were kindling
within him. Ho had been a lawyer by
profession, but had married well, and
was now the proprietor of tin artistic
weekly. There was Mr. Knight, a dis
tinguished politician with fresh com
plexion, clear cut features, powerful
black eyes uud snow white hair; his
bearing was covertly condescending, us
though he were reluctant to have you
realize how greatly ho was your supe
rior. Thero was Mr. Damon, also white
haired and white Ix arded, a somewhat
unsuccessful publisher, but gifted with
warm heart, a keen wit and a bitter
tongue, Tliero was a certain uuconveii.

revocably, uud by natural selection have
long since lost their lbows and idiosyn
crasies. We are ail .elbows ou this side
of tto water, especially since we have
ceaned any longer to be all fists and
shoulders.
Iu Addition to the guests above men
tioned there were voral of our older
acquaintances Gen. Inigo, Hamilton
Jocelyn and Bollingham. When dinner
was announced Wallie Dinsmore took
in Mile. Marana and seated her at his
right iand, and it turned out that Bel
linghaui sat next below her, much to his
displejuure. Ho told himself that he
owed Wallie one. On the other sidn of
him sat Mrs. Bright, whom, indeed, be
had taken into the table. The other
gentlemen thought that Bellinghara had
nothing to complain of. Mrs. Bright,
who could interest herself about almost
anything, provided it did not last more
than an hour or so, noticed that ber
companion was good looking, and deter
mined to exploit him ou the subject of
architecture. She had read Ruskin's
"Stones of Venice," and had seen classio
and medimvul antiquities abroad.
Accordingly she rode at him with
great dash and courage, and at first be
answered her graciously enough. Bo
fore long, however, he perceived that
she did not know the meaning of her
own information, and then he became
laconic. Young Mrs. Bright, on the oth
er hand, wus not accustomed to rebuffs,
and Bcllingliuui's reticence only stimu
lated her euterpri.se. Hhe sparkled on like
cataract in a ruiubuw. determined that
hn slinitM fall In love wilh Tier at any
rate. Meanwhile his oilier enr was be
ing vlslled occasionally by the low and
varied music of ft voice tho freshest mid
most melodious, he thought, he had ever
listened to.
At times, ton, as tho dishes were
passed, the lovely speaker would lean
toward him, so that her soft white plum
ago brushed his shoulder. The Mu
rium mid Wallie were having a most en-
laiiiing conversation. It was not
about nr"!iitecture, and yet llelliugham
felt at : ;.i I' d by it. Wallie was smiling
and cliiieklitnr. mnl ever and anon mak
ing some pithy or arch remark. The
diva ws-ined to bo attempting to deserilH'
the mcutm visions which certain kinds
of music called tip for ber. At last she
said, "The end Is liko 'the awful rose of
dawn,' mid it bismiis to keep unfolding
more and more, but the twilight darkens
between, mid you can only feel that the
great flower blooms at last in the morn
ing of the other World."
At the same Moment Mrs, llright was
mi v one to lli'lhiigliain: "In that way,
don't yo'l see, the necotid and third boxes
Would have just as good a view of the
Hl'ige as the first, mid yet tho parquet

ho.h r H: Ilinijium hud not heard her
Wflse Ii- didn't think it worth whib; tn
answer. Id' turned tn the yming diva
and said. "That limit bo D-etlioven."
Wallie's eyebrows went lip. Ho had
been quietlv watching liellinghmn, and
had been much imnised by bin evident
diitractlnn and llnal surrender. He
linked Mr. Knight, in tho second seat on
bis left, whether it were true that (Irani
Intended to found a college of politics iu
Mexico, mid left the young people to ar
range themselves ns they lilted.
Mrs. Bright turned pale, took up a
silver pepper Imx, and overwhelmed her
criKpiette lie volaille with red peps-r.
Blinded by her indignation, she was ou
the point of put I ini n piece of the highly
condimented viand In her mouth, when
(Jen. Inign, who was on her left, and
who bad been assimilating bis nourish
ment with knife, fork and forefinger,
mid vast enjoyment of rhnrnplng and
der-lutition. hurriedly set down the glass
of sherry be wns iniBiug to his lips, n nil
with (rreat good nature arrested tho
j'l.ung lady's band by lnylng bis own
fr.t paw upon it, "My dear mimir.n."
re ' telHmed with his niictnnns Hebraic
Brawl, "would vou commit suicide at a
table lilto this?"
"Oh, I'm awfully obliged," returned
Mrs, Bright, really feeling so on more
tecMiiiils than one, though she had never
Is'fom been able to endure Unit horrid
Tree mid easy impresario. Sins over
came her repugnance, and recouped her
sell' fur l!i llingbam's scant court.-.;;.' by
fxtractimr whole hcgiheads of it l'toi i
the ample reservoirs of h'T other neigh
rior. After all it .imniiiited tn the same
thing. No a woman receives att'-ntin.-i.
it is Kir.all odds whence it cnutes.
BclliugliHiii mid the diva meantime
had taken a short rut ton mutual under

When, half an hour ago, he had been
presented to Mllo. Marana in the draw

tiful, but remembered that she must be
repellent, and had passed on without a
second look. She, ou the other hand,
bad been sensitive to fcis hostility, told
herself tlmt he looked cross and frigid,
and thought it fortunate that ho was an
architect instead of a singer, liable to
appear with her on the stage. But now,
under the mingled persuasion of happy

Averted (regards had unawares turned to

At the other end f tho table Mrs.
Cad walader was prospering blithesomely
with Mr. Orasmere oa one hand ant
Mr. Baanjlyilo on the otltrr. The conver
sation was of un CDsthetio cast would
the Wagnerian method of musical com
position prevail, and if so, would not
music ultimately be chargeable with in
fringing on the preserves of the other
arts? Mr. Burclytfe, propping up his
mustache orcawionully with his napkin,
was of opinion that uiusio was the soul
and reconciliation of all the arts, and
that a knowledge of musio would hence
forth be' Indispensable to enable the
painter, the sculptor uud the poet to do
their work intelligently. "As to archi
tecture," added he, "we nil know tlmt
in its higher manifestations it lias been
termed frozen musio," "Sonio of Wag
ner's musio tlmt I have heurd," retorted
Mr. Orimmcre, "was dry enough to be
callHi harmonized hay lofts."

Mr. Bidgo'sl burst into a hearty laugh
mid observed that the old cow pi-ob.-iblv
died from feeding on the harmonious
liny loft. Mr. (Inisniere, who was prob
ably of Scutch extraction, drew himself
up to his full height mid said tn Mrs.
(.'adwiihidcr, with a gleam from beneath
Ills eyelids, that sm ll men as tho lasl
Iwo speakers did more thim vice or Igno

walader smiled wilh s-inlet litis, mid
said In her small, caressing voice, "The
proprietor of tho 'Professional Amateur
cannot believe that civilization is c
laved."
If there was any further danger of a
breach of the K'iiee it was averted by the
action of Wallie, who now arose in his
place and proposed the health of the
I, nest of the evening. "Though oni
