Yoi k truth sad but trite. 1 just 18, and 1 qua pretty. Our Homo at was Tho quietest of country Homes but it did not prevent one from meeting Toro what i Felt wholly in calling my Robert car Roll was it Young artist who Lud Como up one summer for the purpose of full Iii his portfolio with sketches under the most economical As regarded his Loard per week and Robert and i in the Early part of the summer had met in a mutually love at first sigh sort of any which resulted in our engage ment. Koberl s immediate prospects As concerned support Wor several water colors of by no Means remarkable value and an Oil painting which to found it in to sell. But to whispered to to confidential things before Long about a comfortably off Grandfather of s3 and a neglected yet heir presumptive guru Sou. Mother my ouly living Parent loved me in Sincli , fondly Way that Sho would have merely lifted her eyebrows in Meek doubtless it i had revealed a passionate attachment for our Man of All work or brazenly eloped with Tho Village and so tha inc of my formal on Gangai tint to Robert Carroll became very soon a settled matter in our House hold. But it Tho Middle of the summer some thing very unexpected happened. I scr Eivid an invitation from my of font mis. Grosvenor Abercrombie to come and visit bar at Newport. Mrs. Grosvenor Aberer Ambiel poor Mother had trained to up from infancy to Teal a sort of Awe at Tho mention of that name. Never were two Sisters so socially apart from Ono another As Augusta Lester living humbly and plainly in an obscure Litlo country town and Cornelia Aber Cron Ibie whose Lucky match with a millionaire in Jears past had k Ivoti her position a3 Ono of Fao ciely s reigning Queens. I accepted the invitation in fear mid trembling so. I made no attempt at anything like a Strain in the matter of costume my few simple dresses i Well knew would stand me in Het tax Stead All the coun try undo finely which i might have Hail hastily stitched at i was of our thing about myself i iad not a Gostion of Vul Leurits in appearance or Man ners that could Shock these High bred re lations. I think mrs. recognized tins fact live minutes after meeting to. She was u Superb looking woman with great Gray puffs at either Temple Deli Cate peachy complexion strangely untouched by time Aud manners that queenly with quiet dignity. Ant Cornelia had one daughter Helen. Very much of Hor Mother s stately Gruce belonged to Helen style. Her Small head where thick masses of Blue Lack in Lay coiled and twine Vin Glos siesta abundance was exquisitely set upon her Swan like sloping shoulders. Her face thoroughly Brunette in Type had a dreamy sweetness of expression that struck you at us Lime As most winningly Lovely. She was a great Belle is i soon perceived in Newport society. Aunt Otise and its appoint ments Wero regal to my rustic eyes. The luxurious onto in which Sho lived seemed almost Ruji irelous. Servants bowing at every turn 110 task to to done by your own bands except just what they wished to do plem Lor wealth grandeur and refinement me what won Der that my head was turned yith it ally i a idly accommodated myself to this new life. Helen was charming to a without any irritating touches of condescension and ant Cornelia was full of the most genial Host Hood. I was made in the most delicate Way to understand immediately upon my arrival tha my few simple dresses would to wholly unsuitable for Tho Gaye Tieso new port and Ery Sor 11 was attending balls dinners settled Sims and heaven Only knows what else in costumes that aunt Cornelia s charming in Ethod of Bestowal Node it no embarrassment to accept. Tho change f com Meadowtown new poit from Jimmu regents to a perpetual round of merrymaking was a intensely Radical As All will admit. Alter Throe weeks of this utterly new life when the time came for to to go Home i remember having a drearily depressed be Lomg that not even Tho thought of see ing Robert onco More could do anything except mildly alleviate. But a until i was really Back in Meadowtown once More i never knew How Radical my mortal change had been. Fight against it As i would discontent and Dis Satish faction Iasi god to at every Turon our modest household customs arrange ments and conveniences struck me As Ridic Ulous me Igat contemptible after Tho glories of aunt Abr Crombie s Newport mansion and the wealth stamped surroundings of her Fine friends. Poor Moth a Sho bore with me very patiently As it res her Sweet nature always to Bear with everybody s Crotchet and shortcomings. Robert Bove with to patiently too at first for i verily Boli Evo that his Lovo was then Strong enough to Wake nearly my worst fan Ltd take a Bor rowed Ideal Light of virtue. But hero is a specimen of How i would sometimes treat him during the month that followed my return you have come for me to take a walk sober t 1 Ada Tho pleasantest of looks in his Largo soft brow eyes. "gracious1" rather it is altogether too Early in the afternoon. This blaring Ruiu my complexion. Cousin and All the ladies at now port think of walking out at this i thought it rather Cool Ada. But just As you choose. To can sit hero and talk for a while on the Piazza if you positively Robert i m almost ashamed sit with Jou while you Havo on that Hor rid careless looking arrangement which Youdis Jmmy by Tho Nan e of a coat. None of the gentlemen at Robert Here interrupted with just the least tinge of in in and manner what about Tho Gonzlo flan at of Don it show jealousy. It _ such dreadfully bad style you is it i was t aware of being jealous Ada i Hopo there is 110 reason for any Yieh All 1 meant both tit was that the port gentlemen with a Saint fluttering retrospective sort of sigh at this Point w very neat in their the Many which took place Between Rob Ert and myself during Tho month that succeeded my eventful visit. Did i finally see signs of impatience in his manner touches of Manly intolerance at my treat ment periods of coldness in his general Demeanour Well if i saw them i chose not to see them and so Tho Days passed. At length Ono autumn morning i rushed into the room where Mother was seated holding an open letter in my hand. Of Mother i cried what do you Well was Tho Placid question. You i spied on How in Ray last letter to Cousin Helen i jokingly invited her to my Blowtown of course i never dreamed having her come and just put id the invitation As a Means of filling up my stupid letter and now Sho writes me that she will take me at my Sho is very anxious to taste a real bit of country life before going Back to next Winter s Gay ties in new York i shall die of mortification at the thought of having Hor Harl but have her i was forced to do and mortification spared me any such terrible result As that prophesied. She came look ing the thorough lady she was dressed with suitable quietness and accepting All our Homespun hospitality with a Sweet thoroughbred Lack of Surprise. I want you to appear your i said to Robert in Tho morning before her arrival. Cousin Helen is very particular Hudson Bay Rai or. Campbell s views words. In his own Dominion elections candidates.

She is a great and for that great Beauty and the least coarseness in a Man s manners or Wilress shocks her Robert s brows darkened. I had gone too far. For Tho first time since knowing him saw his handsome month take a bit Ter sneering curve. Perhaps a clod like myself had better not appear at or while your Paragon is but he did appear that night. Helen very affably cordial to him. Sho knew nothing of our i had never mentioned a word of it either to her self or aunt Cornelia. When Robert had us that night and were alone together Sho astonished me by saying what a charming Man or. Carroll is Why Havo you never mentioned him to me Ada has to been Long in of yes i nearly All to comes of Tho Carrolls of l does to 1 said a Little confused a great Deal astonished. That is his Grandfather or. Everhard Carroll lives in l this or. Robert Carroll is an artist As he told you quite of i know nearly All about his fam Helen said. His Grandfather or. Everhard Carroll treated him shamefully on embracing Art As a profession. The old gout Oman is one of the greatest millionaires in the country and he has Given out i believe that he will bequeath All his Fortune to this Robert his Only hour though to refuses to notice him while he and for that absurd reason too is it not wonderful what simpletons some people can make of i murmured. I was More con fused than Ever. Dur Lutc Tho next four or five Days Robert Camo can stantly to the cottage. Helon showed the most marked attention and rapidly growing preference for his society. His manner was very courteous to nothing move. I could not complain for i had than once pointedly hinted to him that i desired no mention of our engagement to he made during Helen Aber Crombie s visit. Two weeks passed on. At the end of two weeks i was sick tortured agonized with jealousy. It seemed to me that in every motion of Robert s and in every sound of his voice i saw proof that to Hud transferred All Hie old allegiance from myself to Helon. And for my own fun lugs every vestige of my own slumber ing maltreated half despised Lovo revived under the present Shock of circumstances. I blamed myself for the past i hated my Faelz for i told myself that i deserved terrible punishment and Tho punishment came. Helon staid with us three weeks. The night before she left they took a walk to Gether among Cho paths that skirted our c a tenge. It a s a night of perfect autumn moonlight., and now and then i could see t Loir dark forms sharply outlined in the Stiver air As i watched them from the window of the sitting room where i sat alone with a miserable throbbing fore boding heart. At last they outer pm the House. Then i heard them pass into the Little Library whore Mother often sat and was sitting now. Presently i heard Robert ask where is he had never called me Ada before in her presence. I knew what was coming then. I heard Mother s answer j in Tho sitting room i and waited and shuddered. Tho door was half closed. Presently Thero sounded a Little Knock upon it. I Rose us if stung. Come i said. Robert entered. I can t write out his words. They wore very mildly spoken to said that to had for Rome time been forced to Believ-3 that i cared nothing whatever for him. And then though my heart was nearly breaking in my breast woman a Pride came to Ray Rescue. You Are i said i do cars Noth ing for you. I suppose you Havo come to toll me that you wish to break your engagement with to and marry Helen Aber i to answered simply if you will release very i managed. You Are perfectly but the sitting room Light was dancing before my eyes 03 i said it and my poor heart was wildly i had gotten my punishment. Was it Over severe often often i think so Dur ing the lonely even less years of Maiden Hood Havo followed. They have been married almost More years than lean count Over. I rarely Sec them but i know they Are very Happy. Do you Call this a miserable sad Story Reader Well remember that As i said at first it is sad but k. D. In new York news.

Womic on Lind 1889, the Hudson Bay railway question being up in the legislature or. Isaac Campbell made a lengthy speech. From that speech As published in the paper always Friendly to him the following extracts Are Mode the h. B. Would be n competing line Bull not to much More Bhat to would have to give it extra privileges. Thon consider the Road As a competing line. The distance from Liverpool to Montreal was Mil ii from Liverpool to Nelson Miles or 132 Milea in favor of Montreal but 100 Miles of an Ocean voyage amounted so nothing. Consider next Tho routes from Winnipeg to Montreal and from Winnipeg to Nawm. From Winnipeg to fort William is 427 or 426 Miles to Nelson it is from 670 to 700 Miles to Churchill rather More Between too and Miles in Manitoba and 400 Miles outside. That would be 260 Milee farther to Nelson than to fort Iviam. To fort William Tho Cost of hauling Grain from Winnipeg is 12i cents per Bushel. Add the probable Cost of three fifths greater would he cents for the 260 Miles extra. But the speaker said he was Noli going to add 7i cents. Long hauls were always less than Short hauls. Instead of the former calculation he would say that to the extra charge would to 4 cents More. Then there was Nelson Gainet Fortt William with 4 cents in favor of the latter. When at fort William the wheat was still to go to Montreal at a Cost of Rora 8 to 8j cents per Bushel during the summer season six and a half was the computation of the Cost part of last summer. These were shippers figures. So that 7a, cents might be counted an the Normal rate from fort William to Montreal. Via the East and West Lino it Coet 4 cents Lesa to deliver wheat at port Arthur than at Hudson s Bay via Tho h. B. Against that 4 cents was the extra 7j cents n Good of the expense of the haul from port Arthur to Montreal. It was perfectly Plain that if n denier had bushels of wheat on the Way to Montreal Tho sumo amount would average from to 3 cents better to England if leaving this province for direct shipment. The doubt As the navigability of the Borati would make a difference in insurance. In the summer by to lakes the rate half n Centi per Bushel in november a cent and three fourths. There was also the con federation of Competition. Thero were n class of steamers known As Ocean tramps that come in and compete against the regular lines of steamers.

Be a Long time the speaker before Tho Oconn of course it was proposed to establish a regular line of steamers in connection with Tho railway but there would be to Competition. Instances were Given of times when via Tho Oast and West route wheat was carried for Ball Aab and paid for by ship owners. By the calculation made Between the rail route to Mont Wal and the h. B. The speaker found that Iti would be about As cheap transportation one Way As the other the h. B. R., no matter if Tho season is what Lieut. Gordon said it inc Only four months would be an outlet for the Northwest territories but it could not be More than an even competing line to the province of Manitoba a com pared with the Saab and West the 24th of Marci 1890, the Hudson Bay railway question was under discussion. Or. Campbell on that occasion to the report of the paper also always Friendly to him opened his speech by admitting that it to be deprecatory of the Enterprise. These were his opening words intending As i do to support the Bill which proposes to give the sum of to Tho h. B. Tho Ordinary debate would be to offer reasons for giving that amount but inasmuch the criticism offered to the Bill is that the amount is too Small for such a meritorious enter prise it places upon me the duty apparently of deprecating the to High estimate which i think has been placed upon this Rood. That it will be by fair estimate a railway competing on even terms with roads running to Tho East we admit and therefore it ii hould be assisted to the same extent. The proposals of former Days when people were excited Over the scheme the merits of which were overstated and when disallowance prevented the opening of competing routes to the Southeast Forert no reason for placing a Burden upon the province greater than thab these Are the words of or.

Some of the boys had him out in Tho suburbs under a tree with a rope around his neck. It was either hang or break the. Combination and the colonel decided to help break it.

She took a Madison Avenue car at fourteenth Street and As she sat Down it was noticed that Sho carried Ono Glove Loose in Hei hand. This was to display Tho four Ringe on the fingers of that plump and pretty member Tho gloves were not quite forty rods Long and they did not have Quito 100 buttons each. They came As near it As fashion demands however and Tho girl looked pleased and satisfied. Sho had been Riding less than five minutes when she suddenly stood up mud motioned for the car to Stop and half a minute later was out of sight. Then it was noticed that she had left the Glove on Tho seat and a boy about six years of ago eyed it attentively for a few seconds and then whispered his Mother beside him loud enough for All to hear Mai a she a gone off and forgotten one of her York Sun.
