^Copyright, 18S6, by Stone and KlmbalL) SYNOPSIS. Adam Weir, Lord Hermlston, first the Lord-Advocate, and then the Lord Justice Clerk of the Senators of the College of Justice at Edinburgh, has married Jean Rutherford, last heir of her line, upon whose estate at the Scottish village of Crossmlchael he resides when court is not in session. He is noted for his severity, and has become famous for the "hanging face" with which he confronts criminals—while his wife is of a mildly religious type. Their son Archibald combines the qualities of the two, but has been brought up by his mother almost exclusively. She inspires him with her religious views, so that unconsciously he grows to resent his father's severity and roughness. His mother having died, Archie continues his studies, having little in common with Lord Hermlston, with one of whose fellow justices and friends, however, a scholarly gentleman of the old school, he forms a close friendship. At the trial of •ne Jopp, for murder, Archie is especially •trended by his father's coarse remarksand, brooding over the exhibition of what seems to him savage cruelty, he attends the execution. As the man's body falls, he cries out: "I denounce this God-defying murder." The •ame evening, at his college debating society, he propounds the question "whether capital punishment be consistent with God's will or man's policy." A great scandal is •roused in the city by these actions of the •on of Lord Hermlston. Archie meets the family doctor, who shows him by an anecdote that, under his father's granite exterior, the latter has a great love for him. This creates a revulsion in Archie's feelings. His father soon hears of his son's '-.^performances, and reproaches him severe

ly.

Archie accepts the rebuke and submits himself. Nevertheless, Lord Hermlston orders him to abandon the law, and assigns him to the care of the estate at Crossmlchael. Archie goes the same evening to call on the old Justice, already mentioned. „jybo comforts him and points out his father's great abilities, and together they drink the health of Lord Hermlston. Archie establishes himself on the estate, and finds still at the homestead his mothers former housekeeper, Klrstle (or Christina) Elliott, a distant relative of his mother's, who Is devoted to the family fortunes. He does not get on well with his scattered neighbors, and becomes much of a recluse. Kirstie indulges him with many long talks, recounting the history of the region. She tells him a great deal about her four nephews, formerly a wild set, but now leading quiet lives. Robort, or "Hob," is the laird fit Cauldstaneslap, a small property near by. Gilbert Is a weaver and Independent preacler. Clement has removed to Glasgow, and become a well-to-do merchant. Andrew or "Dandle," a shepherd by trade, Is a great wanderer about the country, and a local poet of repute. Archie asks Klrstle If there Is not a Bister also. She admits that there is, a young girl, Klrstle, named after herself, and now at Glasgow with Clement, Archie discovers that there is a marttcu uoo'ness between the elder Klrstle and some of her nephews, the result of some old quarrel, so that they never come to see her. He goes to the Cauldstaneslap church one Sunday, and there meets the younger Klrstle. He talks with her on the way home. Both are much Impressed with each other. The same afternoon, young Klrstle goes for a w.!!: ov:r the moors to the Praying V. eaver's Stone, a local monument of Interest. As she sits on It, she aees a figure coming along tha path from Hermlston House. It proves to be Archie, who has been impelled to walk toward Klrrftle'a home. They sit on the stone. Klrstie sings one of her uncle's ballads for him, and goes home, both parting with much suppressed feeling. Meanwhile, Prank Innes, one of Archie's college chums, gets Into trouble in Edinburgh and cames down to visit Archie. He does not make a favorably impression on the Scotch peasantry, but makes friends with the gentry. He marvels at Archie's long absences from home, and once, when Archie goes oft, proposes to go with him. Archie tells him that he prefers to be alone, and that each must be independent as to his movements, tanes walks off in great anger.

PART VI.

Archie watched him go without moving. He was sorry, but quite unashamed. He hat ed to be inhospitable, but in one thing he was his father's son. He had a strong sense that his house was his own and no man else's and to lie at a guest's mercy was what he refused. He hated to seem harsh. But that was Prank's look-out If Frank had been commonly discreet, he would have been decently courteous. And then was another consideration. The »epret.yc was protecting was not his own merely: It was hers It belonged to that toexpressible she who was fast taking possession of his soul, and whom he would soon have defended at the cost of burning cities. By the time he had watched Frfmk as far as the Swlngleburnfoot. appearing and disappearing In the tarnished heather, still •talking at a fierce gait but already dwindled in the distance into less than the smallness of Lllllput, he could afford to smile at the occurrence. Either Frank would go, cad that would be a relief—or he would continue to stay, and his host must continue to endure him. And Archie was now free —by devious paths, behind hillocks and in the hollow of burns—to make for the trysttng place where Klrstle, cried about by the curlew and the plover, waited and bur.sed far bis coming by the Covenanter's stone.

InoM west off down-hill in a passion of resentment, easy to be understood, but which yielded progressively to the needs trf bis situation. He cursed Archie for a cold-hearted, unfriendly, rude, rude dog and himself still more passionately for a fool in having come to Hermlston when he might hav? sought refuge In almost any other house in Scotland. But the step oDoe taken, was practically Irretrievable. He had no more ready money to go anywhere else he would have to borrow from Archie the next dob-night and 111 as he thought of his host's manner, he was sure of his practical generosity. Frank's resemblance to Talleyrand strikes me as imaginary: but at least not Talleyrand himself eouid have more obediently taken hia lesson from the tacts. He met Archie at dinner without resentment* almost with cordiality. Too must take ytwar friends as yew find them, he would hare said. Archie couldn't help being his tether's son. or his grandfather's, the hypothetical weaver's, grand eon. The son of a hunks, he was •till a hanks at heart. Incapable of true generosity and conslderatloo bat he had other qualities with which Frank could divert himself in the meanwhile, and to —jay wh'.ch waa aeewaary that Fr.^k afcouid keep his temper.

C* excellently was it controlled that bm

awoke next morning with his head full of a different, though a cognate subject. What was Archie's little game? Why did he shun Frank's company? What was he keeping secret? Was he keeping tryst with somebody, and was it a woman? It would be a good joke and a fair revenge to disebver. To that task he set himself with a great deal of patience, which might have surprised his friends, for he had been always credited not with patience so much as brilliancy and little by little, from one point to another, he at last succeeded in piecing out the situation. First he remarked that, although Archie set out in all the directions of the compass, he always come home again from some point between the south west From the study of a map, and In consideration of the great expanse of untenanted moorland running in that direction towards the sources of the Clyde, he laid his finger on Cauldstaneslap and two other neighboring farms, Klngsmuirs and Polintarf. But it was difficult to advance farther. With his rod for a pretext, he vainly visited each of them in turn nothing was to be seen suspicious about this trinity of moorland settlements. He would have tried to follow Archie, had it been the least possible, but the nature of the land precluded the idea. He did the next best, ensconced himself in a quiet corner, and pursued his movements with a telescope. It was equally in vain, and he soon wearied of his futile vigilance. left the telescope at home, and had almost givea the matter up in despair, when, on the twenty-ninth day of his visit, he was suddenly confronted with the person whom he sought. The first Sunday Klrstle had managed to stay away from kirk on some pretext of indisposition which was more truly modesty the pleasure of beholding Archie seeming too sacred, too vivid for that public place. It was not until the second, accordingly, that Frank had occasion to set eyes on the enchantress. With the first look, all hesitation was over. She came with the Cauldstaneslap party then she lived at Cauldstaneslap. Here was Archie's secret, here was the woman, and more than that—though I have need of every manageable attenuation of lapguage—with the first look, he had al-

"DON'T BE AN ASS," HE CRIED, ready entered himself as rival. It was a good deal in pique, it was a little in revenge, it was much in genuine admiration the devil may decide the proportions! I cannot, and it Is very likely that Frank could not. "Mighty attractive milkmaid," he observed, on the way home. "Who?" said Archie. "Oh, the girl you're looking at—aren't you? Forward there on the road. She came attended by the rustic bard presumably, therefore, belongs to his exalted family. The single objection! for the four black brothers are awkward customers. If anything were to go wrong, Gib would gibber, and Clem would prove Inclement and Dand fly in danders, and Hob blow up In gobbets. It would be a Helllott of a business!" "Very humorous, I am sure," said Archie. "Well, I am trying to be so," said Frank. "It's none too easy in this place, and with your solemn society, my dear fellow. But confess that the milkmaid has found favor in your eyes, or resign all claim to be a man of tftate." "It is no matter," returned Archie.

But the other continued to look at hlm steadily and quizzically, and his color slowly rose and deepened under the glance until not Impudence itself could have denied that he was blushing. And at this Archie lost some of his control. He changed his stick from one hand to the other, and—"Oh, for God's sake, don't be an ass!" he cried. "Ass? That's the retort delicate without doubt," says Frank. "Beware of the homespun brothers, dear. If they come into the dance, you'll see who's an ass. Think now, If they only applied (say), a quarter as much talent as I have applied to the question of what Mr. Archie does with his evening hours, and why he is so unaffectedly nasty when the subject's touched on "You are touching on it now,^ interrupted Archie, with a wince. "Thank you. That was all I wanted, an articulate confession," said .Frank. "I beg to remind you began Archie

But he was Interrupted in turn. "My dear fellow, don't. It's quite needless. The subject's dead and buried."

And Frank began to talk hastily on other matters, an. art in which he was an adept, for it was his gift to be fluent on anything or nothing. But although Archie had the grace or the timidity to suffer him to rattle on, he was by no means done with the subject. When he came home to dinner, he was greeted with a sly demand, how things were looking "Cauldstanestap ways." Frank took his first glass of port out after dinner to the toast of Klrstle, and later In the evening he returned to the charge again. "1 say. Weir, you'll excuse me for returning again to this affair. I've been thinking it over, and I wish to beg you very seriously to be more careful. It's not a sate holiness Not safe, my boy," said be. r'tyC,

Whatr* said Archie.

My dear boy," said lis, holding op a waning cigar, "consider! What is to be tha end of it?" "The end of what?"—Archie, helpless with irritation, persisted in this dangerous and ungracious guard. "Well, the end of the milkmaid or, to speak more by the card, the end of Miss Sir1114

B1Il6tt'

Archie rose. "I will hear no more this," he said, in a trembling volcel But Frank again held up hlB cigar. "Tell me one thing first. Tell me if this is not a friend's part that I am playing?" "I believe you think it so," replied Ar* chle. "I can'go as far as that. I can do so much justice to your motives. But will hear no more of it. I am going to bed." "That's right, Weir," said Frank, heartily. "Qo to bed and think over it and say, man, don't forget your prayers! don't often do the moral—don't go in for that sort of thing—but when I do there's one thing sure, that I mean it."

Klrstle had many causes of distress More and more as we grow old—and yet more and more as we grow old and are women, frozen by the fear of age—we come to rely on the voice as the single outlet of the soul. Only,thus, in the curtailment of our means, can we relieve the straitened cry of the passion within ua only thus, in the bitter and senstlve shyness of advancing years, can we maintain relations with those vivacious figures of the young that still show before us and tend daily to become no more than the moving wall-paper of life. Talk is the last link, the last relation.- But with the end of the conversation, when the voice stops and the bright face of the listener is turned away, solitude falls again on the bruised heart. Kirstie had lost her "cannle hour at e'en" she could

assure you," Archie broke out, "this Is all a figment of your imagination. There Is nothing to be said against that young lady you have no right to introduce oer name Into the conversation." 'I'll make a note of it," said Frank. "T*he shall henceforth be nameless, name1MS, nameless, Grlgalach! I make a note besides of your valuable testimony to her character. I only want to look at thing as a man of the world. she's an angel—but, my good she a lady?"

posed, -but because you have wormed yourself into my confidence '. "Oh, come!" cried Frank. "Your confidence? It was rosy but unconsenting Your confidence. Indeed? Now, look! This is what I must say, Weir, for it concerns your safety and good character, and therefore my honor as your friend. You say I wormed myself into your confidence. Wormed is good. But what have I done? have put two and two together, just as the parish will be doing to-morrow, and the whole of Tweed dale in two weeks, and the black brothers—well, I won't put date on that it will be a dark and stormy morning! Your secret, in other words, poor Poll's. And I want to ask of you as friend whether you like the prospect There are two horns to your dilemma, and I must say for myself I should look mighty ruefully on either. Do you see yourself explaining to the four black brothers? or do you see yourself presenting the milkmaid to papa as the future lady of Hermlston? Do you? I tell you plainly, I don't!"

So Archie marched off to bed, and Frank sat alone by the table for another hour or so, smiling to himself richly. There was nothing vindictive in his nature but, if revenge came in bis way, it might as well be good, and the thought of Archie's pillow reflections that night was indescribably sweet to him. He felt a pleasant sense of power. He looked down on Archie as on a very little boy whose strings he pulled—as on a horse whom he had backed and bridled by sheer power of intelligence, and whom he might ride to glory or the grave at pleasure. Which was it to be? He lingered long, relishing the details of schemes that he was too

Idle to pursue. Poor cork upon a torrent he tasted that night the sweets of omnipotence, and brooded like a deity over the strands of that intrigue which was to shatter him before the summer waned.

A NOCTURNAL VISIT.

wander with Archie, a ghost if you will but a happy ghost, in fields Blysiam And to her It was as if the whole world had fallen silent to him, but an unremarkable change of amusements. And she raged to know it. The effervescency of her passionate and irritable nature rose within her at times to bursting point.

This is the price paid by age for on reasonable ardors of feeling. It must have been so for Kirstie at any time when the occasion chanced but it so fell out that she was deprived of this delight in the hour when she had most need of it, when

she had most to say, most to ask, and when she trembled to recognise her sovereignity not merely in abeyance but annulled. For, with the clairvoyance of a genuine love, she had pierced the mystery that had so long embarra s. Frank. She was conscious, even before It was carried out, even on thfit Sunday night when It began, of an invasion of her rights and a vote* told her the invader's name. Since then, by arts, by accident, by small things observed, and by the general drift of Archie's humor, she had passed beyond all possibility of doubt. With a sense of justice that Lord Hermlston might have envied. she had that day la church considered and admitted the attractions of the younger Kirstie aad with the profound

A RUBBER BATHTUB.

Che latMt Addition to the Lnzariom Up to Date Baby's Quarters. The modern baby—that is, the silver spoon in the mouth type of the species —is the best groomed, most luxurious little animal extant today. Baby things oome high, and the array set forth in an ap to date nursery would quite appall os were we to count the cost of the several articles, but we don't, for there is nothing too good for that little soft mite

The accompanying cut will give an idea of its construction. It is simplicity itself, being, in fact, nothing more nor less than a hammock of pure white deodorized rubber cloth, swung between two racks of light bamboo sticks and having a faucet in the bottom to let out the water when baby has been taken out. It is attached to the racks by means of fancy large headed tacks, the heads being the color of the ribbon with which it is decorated—pale blue, pink or pale yellow being the most suitable colors. At either end falls a valance of the rubber cloth, with pinked out edges, on which are stitched ample pockets for holding the toilet articles and baby's shoes, stockings, etc., which have heretofore necessitated the basket, which, with this new tub, can be entirely dispensed with, since the tub is a combination towel rack, baby basket and bath.

This new soft rubber tub will instantly commend itself to eveiy young mother who has felt'the perspiration of agony stand out in cold beads all over her when attempting to steady baby with one hand to keep him from toppling over against the hard sides of the porce-

llain

tub and bumping his precious head, while in fear and trembling she tries to administer the bath with the other, and will no doubt be more enjoyed by baby himself, and he will arise from its rubber depths as smiling and rosy as Aphrodite herself. —Luelle Furniss in Chioago Record.

The Faiihionable Elbow Sleeve. "Elbow sleeves are popular in Paris, and will be here among dressy peoplf for evening aud afternoon wear, with 16 button gloves," writes Emmk M. Hooper in The Ladies' Home Journal. Such sleeves are finished with a twist of ribbon, band of trimming, small cuff or ruffle of lace or embroidery. Cross and Vandyke rows of insertion trim sleeve puffs of thin cotton dresses, with several rows then appearing at the wrist A lace jabot down the center of the puff, with one on the waist front to accord, is another Frenchy garniture. Sleeves and vest in contrast with the remainder of the costume, or sleeves and skirt to match, with coat waist in oontrast, are two well received fashions."

HER ENTRANCE

—into society, and womanhood as well, is an extremely critical period in every girl's life. At this time she needs advice, and, what's more—help of the right sort. If she puts her faith in Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription it can bring only good results. It's a medicine that's made especially to build up women's strength ana care women's ailments—an invigorating, restorative tonic, soothing cordial, and bracing nervine purely vegetable, non-alcoholic, and perfectly harmless. For all the functional derangements, painful disorders, and chronic weaknesses that afflict womankind, the "Favorite Prescription is specific. TERRIBLE PAIN AND FAINTING SPELLS.

London has its Society of Women Journalists, as New York has a Woman's Press club. Both organizations, as well as the outside world of feminine newspaperdom, have cause for congratulation.

of humanity, and so it happens that inventive genius has been pushed to the limit and can seemingly go no farther in devising nursexy and toilet articles dainty enough, soft enough and expensive enough with which his infantile highness may be suitably groomed. A late contrivance which has found its way into his bower of diaphanous laces, clouding pillows and billows of palest blue—baby's own color—is a new kind of bathtub, and when we behold it in its ideal perfection and simplicity we can only wonder that it had not been thought of years ago, for it promises to do more to insure luxurious comfort and lessen the probability of a "squall" on the perfumed waters of baby's bath than anything yet invented.
