Hyde, casting his eyes a moment on this tall, man, whose cold blue eyes and red hair emphasized the stem anger of his whole appearance, was well disposed to leave the scurrilous Englishman to his power of reproof. t Riding hard, It was quite nine when he drew rein at the door of Richmond Hill. Thus far, he had suffered himself to be carried forward by the Impulse of his heart, and he still put firmly down any wonder as to what he should say or do. He was shown Into a bright little parlor with open windows. A table, elegantly and plentifully spread, oc cupied the center of the roomi-n- d sitting as It were the vice president and Mrs. Adams and also their only daughter, the beautiful, but not very Intellectual, Mrs. Smith. Mrs. Adams met him with genuine, though formal kindness; Mrs. Smith with courtesy, and the ylce president ros. bowed handsomely, hoped he wa well, and then after a minutes r flection said: We were talking about the nffl. to Tbe Bow of Orange Ribbon.

They sang, they played, they had a game at whist, and everything that happened was In some subtle, secret way, a vehicle for Hyde's love to express Itself. t About nine, a negro came with Cornelias cloak and hood. George folded the warm circular round Cornelias slight figure; and then watched her tie her pretty pink hood, managing , amid the pleasant stir of to whisper some words that sang all night like sweetest music In her heart At the leave taking he heard a few words which gave him a delightful assurance of coming satisfaction. For as the two girls stood in the hall, Arenta said; You will come over In the morning, Cornelia? I Cornelia. cannot, After breakfast I have to go to Richmond Hill with a message from my mother to Mrs. Adams." And George, hearing these words, could hardly control his delight. For he was one of Mrs. Adams favorites, and so much at home in her house that he could visit her at any hour of the day without a ceremonious Invitation. He took a merry leave of Arenta, and went directly to his rooms. Tis Tis my happy destiny my destiny! to love her! he said softly to himself. I shall tell Mrs. Adams how far gone I shall In love I am, he continued. to an to me, madame, say her, Help opportunity; and I think she will not As for my father, I heard refuse. him this morning with as much patience as any Christian could do; but I am resolved to marry Cornelia. I will not give her up; not for an earldom! Not for a dukedom! Not for the crown of England! Joris Hyde allowed the sweet emotions Cornelia had inspired to have, and to hold, and to occupy his whole being. Sleep was a thousand leagues away, and he flung 6pen the casement and sat in a beatitude of blissful hopes and Imaginations. And after midnight, when dreams fall, the moon came up over Nassau and Cedar streets and threw poetic glamors over the antique churches, and grassy graveyards, and the pretty and houses, covered with vines budding rosebushes; and this soft shadow of light calmed and charmed him. It is a sign to me! It is a sign! So will I put away every baffling hindrance between Cornelia and myself. Barriers will only be as those vaporous clouds.

Boucher of this place suffered a great deal with a dizziness In her head. She was cured of this by a remedy called Dodds Kidney Pills, and has not been troubled since. Shortly afterwards she had a bad bilious attack, and for this she used Diamond Dinner Pills and was completely cured in a short time. In January, 1903, she had an attack of Sciatica, of which she says: T was almost helpless with the Sciatica, but remembering what Dodds Kidney Pills and Diamond Dinner Pills had done for me before, I commenced i treatment of these medicines and In three weeks I was completely restored I have great faith In these (o health medicines, for they have been of so much benefit to me.

Hyde took no notice of any of these disputes until a man evidently an Englishman called Franklin a Yankee."

See of the United States navy has observed the color of the sky la various altitudes in high mountains, and In dry and moist countries, such as Egypt and Greece, and Arizona and the Mississippi valley. His conclusion Is that the beautiful red colors of sunsets and sunrises so much spoken of by Greek and Roman writers, and so often illustrated In landscape painting, arise from water vapor In the lower layers of our atmosphere, absorbing the blue and transmitting the red light According to Dr. See, the reddish colors come from that part of our air within five miles of the earths surface, wSlle the deep blue of the sky arises from re-flections of minute particles in the higher parts of our atmosphere. The water vapor does not extend very high, clouds never rising higher than ten miles above the earth. The blue streaks cast by clouds at sunset show that the red arises near the earth, while the blue bas its seat very high up.
