She blushed deeply while making this admission. "I am hopelessly at sea." said Mr. Martineau. His grey eyes rested on her face with suspicion. It was easy to see that he thought she was trying to deceive him. "May I go on." she said, "and try to explain how I came to forget all these things?

I wa.- no doubt closely watc hed; but by d -grees they grew to trust me more, for I was very j tractable. Con.-tant isolation made ! me dull, quiet, unlike other girls.

The old schoolmaster died. There was a pause in the regular routine of my clays. Eeft ! ""t.rely to my own devices. I used to vandcr ail over tii- upper parts of the house. In one of the attics I found a box full of hooks. Home were dull and uninteresting, but some were well. I do not think you can have any idea or what it was to me to become acquaint. i with Sir Walter Scott. Thaclteray and Lord Lytton. My brain almost reeled with an accumulation or new ideas. I wondered how in the world I could have remained where I was so long in helpless, stupid Ignorance of life. I soon resolved that I would bear it no longer. I would brave my uncle; I would demand my freedom; I would ask why I was mewed up thus in a corner, awy from all companionship. "I remember that night vividly. It was August, sultry and still, and both atmosphere and sky were beautifully clear. I had spent the afternoon under the willow hv the brook, cloatI ing over my novel till the fading Jight

compelled Me to cloe the book. The pastures, aa I walked lingeringly back to the house, were heavy with dew, and discolored the hem of my white cotton dress. I must have been a strange looking girl; my hair floated all over my shoulders and down my back be'ow my waist; nobody had ever told me that I was growing up. and that my locks should be arranged more neatly. I came with slow steps round the corner of the house, brushing my hand softly, along the thick dark box trees; my lightly-shod feet made no noise on the gravel as I turned the corner of the clump of thick bushes which stood at each side of the entrance, and advanced toward the heavy white columns of the porch. "Then I started back and paused irresolutely, for there was a stranger standing by the door a young man with bare head and folded arms. I beg your pardon, Mr. Martineau, did I startle you?" "Not in the least, thanks. You you can't think how you interest me. IMease don't pause." "It seems a strange thing that up to that night I had never encountered any of my uncle's guests, but it is nevertheless quite true. As he turned and caught sight of me, he utttered an exclamation of surprise. " 'You startled me.' he said. " 'You startled me, too, I answered vaguely, as I looked at him, there came floating into my mind remlniscenc?s of the romances with which I had lately filled my head. 1 thought of the first meeting between Ivanhoe and Rebecca as I looked up at him. He took my hand, drew me to his side, and patted my hair kindly. " 'Whose dear little girl are you?' he said. "I felt cruelly wounded and hurt! There was every excuse for him you see how small I am. no taller than a child, my hair was all down my back, and the light was fading! Hut I never thought of that. Picture to yourself a girl, with a mind just awakened to a consciousness of womanhood and its possibilities, brought face to face with the first young man she had ever met, and greeted as I was greeted then! He must have thought me mad I burst into indignant tears, and tore myself away from him. " 'How dare you oh. how dare you speak to me like that?" I cried. '1 can't think how you can insult me so!' "1 think he saw then thai he had made a mistake, for he said. 'By (leorpe. I beg your pardon!' Hut I would not stay another moment. I ran upstairs to my own room. There I cried as if my heart would break. I had deeply realized how neglected L was. and there was no one to help m.3 to gain redress!" (To Le continued.)

CLIMBING .J ii ! the Ttiln to Sf r-i!;f lu-n tin- I.iini :uil t'lir' I t-'ri:i. New York Times: The average landlady of the average lodging-house is nothing if not resourceful and orig.inal. When it comes to the question of the merits of her particular house, the unoccupied rooms of which are open to inspection at all reasonable hours, her vocabulary is practically unlimited, and while Iit English may not always be without reproach, it is sufficiently lucid and forcible to give a good idea of the many excellencies of her domain. It has ic.nained. however, for a landlady living not 1.000 miles from West Eighteenth street to make, with the assistance of a num ber of unknown medical men. the as- ! tounding discovery that climbing up numerous flights of stairs is not only not injurious, but is actually beneficial to the health. "W hy, bless you." she said to a young man. an unfortunate seeker after rooms, who protested that the fourth floor was too high up for him because of the weary and hurtful stair climbing, "why. bless you, i it's the best thing in the world for j you. The doctors all around here are i recommending stair climbing for dysi pepsia and lung trouble! They say it's the best thing in the world for either of l,,PSe mplaints. if yoa'll only walk ; up stairs often enough and always be j sure to throw your shoulders well landlady, "that doesn't matter. It's good for the general health. You don't care to try it? Very well. Good-day." and the door closed firniß behind the outcast young man. who was wondering what tale would confront him in the next housp. REGULAR EXODUS. Of .V!oli:i in iiKiiit us IIa' Set In from the Island of Crete. A regular exodus of Mohammedans from Crete has set in, and, as there seems to be no way of stopping it, it is b'lic vi d that the Porte will soon n.ake a virtue of necessity and pass the word for all true Mussulmans to quit the island. Although large sums of i money have been distributed at Can dia among those willing to stay, be sides free gifts of limber for the reconstruction of their houses, boats continue to leave crowded with emigrants. The news of Prince (leorge's visit to Candia only gave fresh stimulus to tha exodus, and, at latest accounts, the prospect was that the whole Mussulman population would soon be gone. Tin Turks are much distressed at this state of affairs, and accuse England of being principally to blame, since she, of the four powers, has nearly always been foremost in assuring Turkey that her rights would be safeguarded. It is not denied that England has endeavored, in a certain measure, to fulfill her promises, but, as the Christian Cretars seem to have deliberately adopted the policy of making the island uninhabitable for Moslems, it is practically inipossil.de for any outside intluence to induce them to remain. It is gener.ally admitted that each family is worth 1 considerable sum per annum to the island in taxes and Industry, but the Christians, having obtained tho upper hand, are resolved to pursue their advantage to the uttermost, and to drive all Moslems out of the country, so far as It lies within their power to do so. This is, at all events, an effective way of putting an end to religious differences. More than 50.000 Frenchmen belong to the Legion of Honor.

Kvidently when the question of a wedding Journey arises in an up-the-state town the first choice falls upon Philadelphia, and down the youthful pair come when every one else is wishing to leave the city behind him. In Fairmount Park one may tee them driving about in carriages. One pair were having a disappointing time of it the other day. They had chosen an unpropitious hour for their drive, just when their charioteer was growing hungry. When the trip down one side of the park had been made Le had stopped his horses by the entrance aad was helping himsei: to ample slices of bread and butter. It was a difficult thing for the ocupai;ts of that carriage to look cither romantic or intcrestii'g. They may have been hungry, too. Another pair were conspieuousjy anxious that no one should IVwIaimagine they had not lived in delphia all their years. Put though they may come to the city in the s-ummer to ee the sights, to go to the seaside and eat l-e.-.it clams, not because they lite them, Washington is their Mecca all the rct of the year. In fact, they Cvjm to consider Washington their own, a city set apart for bridal pairs, and hand-in-hand they wander through her pu'dic buildings and up and down her brrad avenues. They are all interesting, out they cannot compare with th- older men and women who bad visited Washington on their wedding jouraey years before and who have just found time to go back again. And the ct.y sees many stich tourists. They are frankly happy and gay. and so pleased to recall how the city looked "when we were here before." The Woman Who Stoop. The woman who stoops is rare, thank goodness, but she- does exist as an eyesore to beholders and a discomfort to herself. Yes. I nn quite convinced that the stooping- woman is quite uncomfortable and would remedy her defect if she knew how. Weakness of system is sometimes responsible for stooping shoulders, but carelessness is the great cause.

The work is in imitation ot old Cretan laces, which were made with colored threads, arranged as patterns unon a black or white ground. It is executed with water-colors, and can be used for sofa cushions and similar things, frills for old-looking portieres, to give them the air of antiquity, or for dainty bed or couch dressing. The colors are made fast by the use of a fixative, and though they will not stand washing they will not spoil from atmospheric causes. To paint: Use veloutine'as a fixative; moist water-colors, with Chinese white of body colors, red sable brushes, anel work upon lace of good designs. Stretch the lace and pin it AFTERNOON WEAR. flaring over the hands. The clinging skirt is a green canvas, with stitched bands of white cloth headed by narrow black velvet ribbon.

chiffon, which covers also the petticoat, of rose silk. Black straw hat with black plumes and tuile. down to a drawing board, fo that every part of it is quite secure. Select the colors to use. and where they are applied, and over every place that is to be painted lay a wa.-h of undiluted veloutine. When it is dry make a wash of Chinese white and vci ;itine, pass that over parts already sized with tho veloutine. and then paint the lace with bright colors in a set pattern. Metallic colors, such as gold, silver and bronz; can Le applied in the same way to the lace. See that the colors are thoroughly absorbed into the la c, and remember the more broken and diversified the coloring the better the ffevt. Ie AtlraelivEveryone cannot be iK?.j.tifi!i. but everyone may be lovable, and the plainest woman can ma!ie hersoli attractive if she likes. She can speak gently first of all, but she should remember that if her voice to be sweet and pleasant she must never forget herself and raise it in ang-?r, snd she must never grumble cr speak peevishly at home. Her manner, too. must be gentle, attractive and sympathetic. To attain a gentle, attractive manner she must be :'.ool aul noble, and unselfish in re iiity. What she really is will shine through her plain face in time. If ner soul within is beautiful, so will be a:r expr-ioa and manner as the ye-irs p..ss. Frills of fashion. A novelty in wraps is a half coat of lace, rounded up the back and trimmed with rutlles of chiffon. Gold pencil guards, enameled and set with precious stones, are useful additions to the chatelaine. A collar buckle of gold is in the shape of two maple leaves, with small pearls set along the lines of the veins. Scent bottles of cut glass, with tracings of silver, have covers of gold handsomely enameled and set with precious stones. A handsome purse has a border of gold openwork, which has the appearance of being cast. It is set with small precious stones. Pineapple bunting, a new pretty summer textilG is like a sheer but strong grenadine, in little open meshes, but of the texture of gauze. IiOrgnette chains with pearls set at intervals of from two to three inches are greatly in demand. Others are mounted with emeralds and rubies. A collar buckle of gold, in the shape cf a fleur de lis. has the appearance of being cast. The centers are embossed and relieved by bright cutting. Skirts of many of the thin gowns are tucked down several inches at th.'1 back, thereby giving the desired Hat effect and sonic fullness at the same time. Waists belted at the back, with opn jacket fronts, are quite a feature of tailor gowns of summer cloth, white or colored pique, duck, Holland and English drill. The articles comprising a toilet set for a lady are mounted in gold, the back of each article having a miniature in very bright colors on an emerald green background. Black point d'esprit net continues to be in great use, both for making newtoilets and fancy waists and for freshening gowns and bodices of black satin, taffeta, faille, Indian silk and grenadine. Charming dancing drosses for debutantes are made plain bodices almost covered with lace-trimmed fichus, the sleeves being nothing move than IiOttis XIV. bow knots of wide velvet ribbon. Very fine open-meslied veiling is the favorite for summer wear. It has either largo dots far apart or no dots at all, and in either ease tho veils are so thin that they will not serve to disguise a poor complexion. The contrast afforded between laces, nets and light evening silks and tulles and black velvet ribbon and black chenille bands and special devices en applique are among thrt most artistic and becoming effects in French gowD-ing.
