DESCOUK& "Am I to send Valerie's breakfast up, Rex, or will she join us this morning?'* "Yes, sho'll be down directly, Kate; she's got a new gown or something, and she is delighted with herself and everyone else." Mr. llamblin took up a pile of letters beside his plate and began examining their contents; one in a delicate fem inine handwriting caught his eye; it had been left by hand at the club, and sent on immediately by the hall porter. An exclamation of annoyance escaped him as he cut open the envelope; his sister, howover, was busy with the dis position of the breakfast cups and did not notice it. "Was the party a success?" she asked; "did Valerie enjoy herself?" "A success? Yes, I suppose so," he answered without looking up; "there was a terrible crush, aud the air wan positively suffocating with the scont of the flowers, and the hoat of the lights, so of course, Valerie enjoyed herself!" "Of course she did!" said a voice from the door, and Rex hastily put down his letter, while Miss llamblin looked up expectantly. Valerie came slowly forward, un willing to lose any of the effect of her dainty costume even on this family audience. "llow lovely!" cried Miss llamblin with real enthusiasm as hur sister-in law drew near her. Tall, dark, with her soft hair fan tastically caught on the crown of her head I) 3' a silver dagger, while stray curls escaped iu all directions, with her filmy inualiu gown clinging round her iu its studiously simple elegance, she looked like some delicate pastel which had just stepped from its frame. "Isn't it charming?" bLc said, with a laugh, as she suddenly dropped into her chair at the table. "Don't you like it, Rex?" sho asked coquettishl}' of her husband; and then, without waiting for hia answer, she addressed herself to Miss llamblin: "You should have come with us, Kate; it was de lightful! Oh, I did not think 3 r ou Eng lish could say so many pretty things as I heard last night." Miss llamblin laughed. "I don't suppose many would have come to my ears, dear, if I had been there." Valerie glanced half involuntarily at her sister-in-law, and oould scarcely suppress a smile at the notion of those middle-aged ears being the recipients of such compliments as had reached hers last night. Had anybody ever made love to Kate, sho wondered? Kate could never have been pretty; even when she was young, ever so long ago. Rex was not handsome, either, and he was fifteen years younger than his sister, but he had a certain dis tingue air about him which had fasci nated her the very first evening she saw him at tho British Tembassy ball at Rome. It had soon been all over and done; in just six weeks from that first meeting the Signorina Valerie del Lucia had become plain Mrs. Hambliu. Valerie's thoughts were apt to run on by leaps aud bounds, and, while Miss llamblin poured out her coffee, she reflected with some complacency that there were advantages in the mar ried state, when it implied dainty morning gowns like this, and dreams of loveliness from Worth's, in place of the one party frock per season, to which all tho ingenuity of a clever maid could not alwa3's impart a look of absolute freshness; besides, of course, there was Rex, who was charming and— But she had arrived at this stage of her reflections when she be came aware that her coffee cup was being handed to her, and immediately she returned to the exigencies of the moment and set about discussing her breakfast and her party with equal ze6t. "Do you know, Rex," she said, "you hurried me off last uight without giv ing me time" to say good night to Guido?" "Ah, your brother was there?" asked Miss Hamblin, quickly. "Yes; he was the life and soul of the whole party, as usual! Do you know, Kate, when we were children 1 used to say that when I grew up I would raar ry him, because he was handsomer and cleverer than anyone else I knew? Dear Guidol What a man he is. There are not many like him." Mr. llamblin jerkcil his chair impa tiently. "1 always wonder, Rex, why it is that you do not get on with Guido; he is so easy to please. Bat somehow you two—" Miss llamblin broke in quickly: "Who else wan at Lady Meredyth's, Valerie?" "Oh, you'll see the whole list in the Morning Post, dear. But, as usual, the one person I wanted to 6ee was not there." "And who was that?" "Mrs. Lascelles." Both Rex and his sister looked up sharply. "Mrs. Lascelles?" "Yes. Guido introduced ut the other day in the park! She is perfectly charming, and a great friend of his." Miss llamblin fidgeted nervously with the cups, and llamblin threw down his serviette so impatiently that it jerked to the lloor some of his opened letters; an envelope fluttering to Val erie's feet, she stooped and picked it up. "Why, Rex, who is this from?" she asked, curiously, glancing at the deli cate feminine writing, under which, in the club porter's clumsy hand, was tlie home address. llamblin frowned angrily. "It's a business letter," lie answered, shortly. "Oh," and Valerie was about to put it down when her eye caught the gilt monogram "8. L." "I didn't know business people wrote on paper like this, they don't in Italy," she added quietly, then, turning to Miss llamblin, but still retaining the envelope, she continued: " Guido brought me a message from Mra Lascelles, though; she wants me to not in some tableaux vivauts she is getting up on the 12th of next month; I am to choose iny own characters and do whatever 1 like; isn't it delightful?" "What did you say?" "My dear Kate, I said I should be charmed!" Rex looked up. "I hope you don't really mean that, denr?" "Why?" "Because I cannbt possibly allow you to do anything of tho kind." Valerie stared at him in astonish ment. "But I tell you I have already accepted, the Idea pleases me, and I have no intention of giving it up," added Valerie, with decision. "My dear child, you must let me de cide that for you. You cannot possi bly take part in these tableaux of Mrs. Lascelles." "And why not?" askod Valerie, petu lantly, Irritated hy the unwonted con tradiction. "Because Mrs. Lascelles Is not a woman whom I choose to have you associate with." Mrs. llamblin's face flushed. "She is my brother's friend." "Exactly," replied Rex, lua tone that spoke volumes. "Rex, how dare you insinuate such things? Guido would not wish me to know anyone who was not nice. He particularly asked me to be friends with Mrs. Lascelles, and I will do all I can to please him." "My dear Valerie," began Rex, but slie interrupted quickly: "You are Jealous of Guido! jealous because he is so much better looking and more popular than you! I have noticed it ever since he has been in London. I will not have my brother slighted, nor his friends, and I shall go and call on Mra Lascelles this very afternoon." "You will do nothing of the kind, Valerie," said Rex, in a tone which was new to his wife. "The woman is the talk of the town, and I won't have you mixed up with her. Stella Las celles' name is in every man's mouth." "Stella Lascelles!—S. L!"—exclaimed Valerie, whose eyes had wandered to tho envelope, "and her letters are in every man's pocket, too, I suppose. I understand now why you do not wish me to meet her." "Valerie!" cried Kato, putting her hand on the girl's arm. "Leave me alone, Kate!" she said, impatiently, her face white and her eyes lowering. "Do you suppose lam such a ohild as not to see through this?" "You are talking such abject non sense that it is not worth contradict ing," said Rex, rising from the table and unfolding a newspaper. "Nonsense? Then show me the letter that envelope contained." "1 shall do nothing of the sort." "Of course not; I can quite under stand that. A business letter." "If you believe—" "Will you tell me it is not from Mrs. Lascelles?" "1 will tell you nothing at all!" he exelaimed, striding towards tho door. "As you please." Kate watched them a moment—he, standing by the open door of the tiny greenhouse which led from the dining room, a look of pain and trouble on liis face; she, her chair pushed back from the table, her whole bearing sullen and'doflant; Miss llamblin had a shrewd idea that she ,held the key of the situation, which her brother was trying to hide from his wife. What was sho to do? Kate Hamblin had been" mother and sister and friend to her only brother too long not to understand him thoroughly. She loved him too well to have harbored any small jealousy towards the wife ho had chosen; and, thanks to hor tact, the menage a trois had always till now rolled on oiled wheels. But Kate had not spent six months in her sister-in-law's so* ciety without gaining some insight into her character. She knew that Valerie was fonder of her husband than she herself realized, but that hers was not a nature which easily forgave, and she felt that if this grievance were allowed to take root In the girl's mind it might be productive of serious trouble hereafter. After a second's hesitation, Miss Hamblin followed her brother into the green house. When, after a few minutes, she re turned, Valerie was still in the same position, only her face was a little harder, her lips a little more set. "My dear Valerie," she said, putting a hand on her shoulder, "will you listen to me?" "Excuse me, Kate," replied Mrs. llamblin; "you are very kind, out this is a matter between Rex and me, and no one else has anything to do with It" "Oh, yes, they have. And I'm going to t£ll you how. Now, my dear little sister, I am such a very old woman next to you, that you must listen to me. I have wanted Rex to tell you about it long ago, but ho was afraid of hurting you, and—" "Oh, I know, we are not supposed to concern ourselves about our husband's past; but to think, Kate, that we have Dot been married a year, and she writes to him!" There was a tremble in the voice which touched Kate. "Mrs. Lascelles? Oh, but .she hasn't much to do with the matter." The tears which had been gathering in Valerie's eyes dried suddenly as she gave an ugly little laugh. "Of course not! That's why Rex wouldn't show me the letter!" "Would you like to see it?" asked Miss llamblin, quietly, holding out the scented paper. Valerie put out her hand eagerly. "Let me tell you something first," urged Kate, but the girl had alroady seized it and was reading it. "Dbar Mr llamblin: I have to consult you on a very dol'.cato mattor.

"I don't understand it; what does it all mean?" "My poor child, it means a very seri ous thing—" "But what lias Guido to do with it?" "My dear, Guido has got into a bad set in London; ho knows too many women like Mrs. Lascelles; he has lost terrible sums at cards since ho has been here." "But how could he? Guido is poor—" "Yes, but Rex is rich; he has helped him. You see what that woman says: my brother has paid debt after debt for Guido until, at last, the other day, he said he would pay no more." "But tills cheque of eight hundred pounds then?" "That cheque was not signed by Rex; Guido must have tried to imi tate—" "Kate!" cried Valerie, understand ing at last, and starting to her feet. "Guido has done that! Oh, how terri ble. What will happen to him?" "Nothing! You don't suppose that Rex would allow anything to happen to anyone you caro for? Valerie, don't you understand that my brother loves you?" But Valerie had left her side; she was hurrying towards the greeuhousc, and she threw herself into her hus band's arms as Kate softly closed the doors.—Black and Wliito. CARRIER PIGEONS. How the Messages Are Attached to the Swift Birds. Do Witt C. Loekwood writes for St. Nicholas an article describing the mail service by carrier pigeens established between Los Angeles and Suuta Cata lina, Cal. Ho says: The message, when sent by the Catalina carriers, is always written on sheets of tissue paper four inches wide and ten inches long. Four of these slips will contain enough written mat tor to fill a columu or more of an ordi nary daily paper, by which it will bo seen 1 hat the birds can carry a very considerable amount of correspondence. It may be interesting to know that dur ing the Franco-German war, when large numbers of carrier-pigeons were employed with great success, tho mes sages were printed by microphotog rapy on fine waterproof films, by which method an almost incredible amount of correspondence could bo forwarded by a single bird. According to a French newspaper, nearly two million dis patches were carried by pigeons during the siege. The birds were taken ouj. of Paris in balloons. There are various methods of at taching the message. After folding the written slips together length wise in the middle, then over and over three or four times, the whole may be rolled up tightly into a drum-shaped pellet, secured with a bit of twine, and then tied to the bird's leg; or else the narrow folded slips iaay be wound round and round the leg, exactly as you would apply a bandage to a sore finger. Sometimes the message is at tached to the wing or tail feathers, or fastened about the body of the bird, but not always with the best results. The wcll-knowrt figure, on certain valentines, of a huge envelope with "Love to Thee" inscribed thereon, the v/liole tied about the neelc of a dove with a yard or more, apparently, ol pale blue ribbon, is undoubtedly re sponsible for the prevailing belief that this method is the one generally employed. It was no uncommon thing to have a man rush into the oilicc with a yellow envelope, duly sealed and ad dressed, almost as large as the pigeon itself, expecting the bird to carry it (in his beak, probably) across the channel. After a few experiences of this kind the boys were not at all surprised when somebody wanted to know if he could get a bird to take over an umbrella for him. —One of the professors of the Uni versity of Texas was engaged in ex plaining the Darwinian theory to his class, when he observed that they were not paying proper attention.

Three Eye Hospitals Are Now Maintained l>y the Koyal Couple-—SchloM Te gernsee, the Favorite Retreat of Curl Tlieodor. The third of six beautiful and tal ented sisters. Princess Maria Josepha of Braganza, became the second wife of the celebrated ro3*al oculist, Duke Carl Tlieodor of Bavaria, on April 21), 18*74. No married life could be more simple or linppy than that led by Duke and Duchess Carl Tlieodor, surrounded by their five children, three daughters and two sons—Princess Sophie, born in 1875; Princess Elizabeth, 1870; Princess Marie, 1878; Prince Ludwig Willielm, in 1884, and Prince Franz Joseph, the godson of the emperor of Austria, on March 23, 1888. The duke and duchess, says the Gentlewoman, lead a very busy, useful life, for the duke has no less than three eye hospitals under his charge, which he has himself founded, the principal and favorite of which is at the royal schloss at Tegernsee, in Bavaria. The others are at Muni ah and Meran, at all of which places he spends a part of tlie year with his family. His royal highness performs the operations very early in the morning (in summer at half-past six), aud lie is almost always assisted by the duchess, who takes the greatest interest in her husband's work, and who is herself a very skillful trained nurse. lie also sees all patients early in the morning, and, as may be imagined, tlie poor look upon him al most with worship, and have an equal adoration for the beautiful duchess. The hospital of Tegernsee, which is in the old royal schloss, now the prop erty of the duke, can accomodate sixty patients, each ward containing from four to six beds. No fees are taken at any of the three hospitals, but there are boxes in which richer patients are expected to place a contribution, the money being devoted to the deserving / / x - ' \ / \ / \ I ' ' ' ' ', V r■ ' • 11l -ll iiijl 1 SCIJLOSS TEQEBNSEE. poor of the place. Duke Carl Tlieodor is the only royal oculist who exists, and when first he announced his intention of studying medicine, in order that he might spend his life and talents in the service of the sick and suffering, every one declared that it was an unheard of thing for a prince of royal blood to adopt any profession but that of arms. The duke, however, was wiser than his generation, and preferred to heal tlio sick rather than to infiict wounds, and his name will live longer and be more loved by generations to come than that of any soldier, however brave and noble his life may have been. The duke could nowhere have found a nobler and more unselfish wife than the duchess, for she enters heart and soul into his philanthropic work, and so thoroughly understands the great nature of her husband. It often happens that a clever woman is domineering and unainiablc, but this is not the case with her, for she has the sweetest and most unselfish nature, and is always thoughtful and consider ate to her attendants, who are one and nil devoted to her. Her tact in dealing both with high and low is unfailing, and she is as great a favorite with all the relations of her husband as with her own family. The duchess has many interests in life, and one of her chief hobbies "is en gineering; she takes an immense in terest in machinery of all descriptions, and, what is very rare in a woman, thoroughly understands tlie subject. In appearance she is vervqucenl3\ with a perfectly beautiful face, and lovely eyes, full of expression, tho greatness of her soul showing plainly when she speaks, but perhaps her greatest charms are her womanliness and the tenderness that she shows to tho poor patients when she is assisting her hus band in a painful and difficult opera tion. Schloss Tegernsee is beautifully sit uated on tho Lake of Tegernsee, al most on the edge of the water. Tegern see is a very ancient town, founded by two brothers, Count Ottokar and Count Adalbert, in the year 740. It is now a very pretty, quiet place, greatly fre quented by the inhabitants of Munich, who came there on account of the pure nesa of the air and the beauty of tho scenery. The ancient schloss, which was for merly a monastery, became a private residence in the year 1808, and in 1817 became the property of King Maxi milian I. of Bavaria. The king made it his summer residence, and generally spent several months there every year. Now it is the property of Duke Carl Theodor who has put it to a .noble use, and has made Tegernsee the center of charitable work among the poor. The hospital is situated in one wing of the schloss, as the duke finds it most convenient to have his patients under his own rooC No royal duke and duchess in all Europe lead such truly unselfish lives as the Duke and Duchess Carl Theodor of Bavaria, and if only his example will be followed by those who are talented among the royal and noblo families of Germany, only good would come to the JT&theriand. for Infants arid Children.
