Lady Latimer'sEscape. _
BY ChARLOTTE M. flftAEIE.
ChAPTER ifi-CONTINUED.
"You might be tempted some day , "
she said. "You are beautiful enough ,
and you have a charm all your own.
Remember my words : rather die a
hundred deaths than make a miserable -
able marriage. Now come aul let us
% . . sethe house. "
We went over that vast mansion
: together , and the more I saw of Lady
h . ' Latimer , the more i loved her. % ij11
we had gone together some time , I
forgot that she was anything lint a
gn l like myself.
\\re Levels had always been famous
for . two things ; one was a light-
hearted. love . of laughter , the other
was the keenness with which we saw
the humorous side of everything. We
may have been deficient. in some finer
qualities , but we certainly made up
for it in these. We saw subjects for
fun and laughter where other people
were , solemn as judges. It was this
f particular quality which made the
vicarage the very home of merri-
inent , and which made us popular
whcrever we went.
When Lady Latimer and I had been
J together a few hours , she laughe4
. heartily and natural1y as 1 did. We
went over the whole house , and its
-extent , its magnificence , completely
astonished me. It was like unraveling -
ing a fairy tale ; but I saw that this
.alone would not make any one happy.
I remember that in the library there
was a very beautiful picture ; it was of
a young man , quite young , not more
'than twenty years of age , wearing the
picturesque uniform of the Life Guards.
L A face that attracted and. charmed
1Ie , for it had the dark , chivalrous
a beaut.y of the knights of old-dark ,
luminous eyes full of lire and courage ,
dark , level brows that nearly met , a
protid , firm mouth , half covered with
a dark mustache , such a face as one
ECCS in the pictures of Spanish knights
and princes , yet with a gleam
of human tenderness lU the eyes that
arrested you , and made ou stand still
before it. .
WTho is that , Lady Latimer ? " I
asked. ' 'Is it the 'nortralt .of a person
living , or- "
But I could not utter the word
1 "dead" in conjunction ivith that beautiful -
¶ tiful , noble face.
'Living , " she replied. "Now , Audrey -
drey , who is that ? , Try -to guess. "
I could not for I knew nothing of
the Latimers , except that they
existed , and I told her so. She was
looking at the piqture with. smiling
eves. . .
'That is Lionel -Pleming , " she said ,
"heir at law and'nextof kin to Lord
.Latimer. "
I knew as little cf .the laws of entail
as I did of Greek. I looked up at her
quite puzzled.
"He is not Lord Latimer's son , " I
saId.
saId.She
She laughed.
- ' : No ; he is but wery distantly related
to him , " she answered ; but , for all
that , when the present Lord Latimer
dies , Lionel Fleming will succeed him ,
and become Bron Latimer , of Lor-
' . "
ton's Cray.
"Do you know him well ? " I asked.
"No. I have on1y seen him once or
twice. He is quartered .at Windsor.
He will be here in September for the
shooting. You seem to .athniro his
face. Audrey. "
' 1 do , ' was m almost breathless
reply. 'Ihave seen nothing so beautiful -
tiful in my lffe. "
' 'He is the most popular man in
London , " she said , -"and certainly one
-of the best matches in England. You i
can form no idea how ae ts courted
.and flattered. "
'And spoiled ? " I interrupted.
"No ; not spoiled , " she answered.
'Ho is as noble in chnracter as he is
baautiful in face. "
-"A wonder among men , " I corn-
inented.
"He is a wonder , " she answered , -
dreamily , ' 'as men go. " t
Wherever I went diring the re-
inainder of that day I saw that face ,
the name soundedever in my ears.
"IAonel Fleming. " i wondered
if I 1.iould ever see the origi

tember , and doubtless we should be t

CHAPTER IV. a
A
, Dinner that evening was a stately , ii
ceremofliOUS affair , unutterably 591- tI
. . . Cinn and dull. The earl presided in d
rieat state. Everything was of the
rarest arid best , but dull and cheerless - a
less Lady Latimer's eyes iQoked at f
; Inc ai though she would say "Let ui
make haste and get it over and get L
owa.y again. " I could imagine what. ii

those dinners 'vere like when site was
quito alone with the old lord.
She was quite a different Lady Lati-
mer tilci ] . It seemed as though all
the brightness and the sparkle died.
out of her. She looked bored by
everything. She eat little and drank
less. She looked unutterably wearied.
Very few vords were spoken , and it
was a great relief when we withdrew.
We went to the drawing-room , where
the lamps were lighted , but not turned
on full.
"Come , Audrey , to the terrace , "
Elle said , "arid let US see the MaV
moon shining over t1e trees and the
fountains. "
As we stood watching it she suddenly -
denly caught my hand , nnd with a passionate -
sionate gesture I shall never forget ,
she cried :
"Oh , Audrey , Audrey ! is life worth
living after all ? "
I was very much puzzled by Lady
Latimer. It seemed to inc that haying -
ing so much money , living in such a
magnificent house , the fact of being
surrounded by every possible luxury
under the sun , ought to have made
her at least content. rr she had passed
through those magnificent rooms with
a smile or a snatch of song on her
lips , or the light of a glad content in
her eyes , I could have understood.
She seemed to have two moods. Whezi
she was with the old lord. silence ,
weariness. with a certain fine scorn of
all and everything ; when she was with
me , of simple , almost child-like merri-
ment.rhen it was possible for her
to escape tim stately , gloomy presence
of her husband , she did so. and then it
was to hurry to . me and beg that I
would go out with her ; and when we
were iii the woods together she forgot
that she was Lady Latimer , and ran
after lUtterIhCs , gathered wild flowers -
ers likt any sunpie country girl : \'TC
Spent hours in those bonny Lorton
woods. 'lucy were like fairy-land.
Tim boughs of the trees met overhead ,
so that the sunlight which fell on the
green graS3 below became filtered , as
it rere. through the leaves ; a beautiful -
ful brook ran tl1rough the wood , sing-
ing. rippling , clear as crystal , so that
one could see the pebbles plainly in its
bed ; blue forget-me-nots grew on its
banks , and the green grass was wet
with the shining water. The trees in
Lorton woods were strong and tall ,
with great spreading boughs , and the
birds had built nests in them. Surely
no other wood or forest ever held so
many birds , and surely no other birds
ever sung so sweetly as these. Every
kind of fern and of wild flower grew
there ; great sheaves of bluebdlls , of
wild strawberry blossoms , and of the
lovely , delicate meadow-sweet. It was
a wood full of hidden beauties ; we
were always finding fresh. nooks and
corners , each one more beautiful than
the other. Lady Latirner loved it.
We sat for hours together by the sIde
of the brook , talking on every possible -
ble subject except one. We never
spoke of herself. I had th go over
and over again all the details and routine -
tine of our home life. Lady Latimer
loved to hear of my father's study and
his sermons , and how he visited the
sick , and how nenvous he was if a baby
cried while he was baptizingit ; how he
cheered the did people , and how kind
he was to the young men and maidens
of his parish ; how he loved the boys ,
and secretly enjoyed the fun of them.
She liked to hcarabout my mother.
. 'I shou1d think , Audrey , ' she said
to me one day , "from your deserip-
tion , that your mother must be that
wonder or wonders-a perfect woman.
She is a saint church , a help in the
study , a manager in the kitchen , a
mother in the nursery and a lady in
the draw ± ngroorn. "
She is all that , " I answered. laughing -
ing , although my eyes were full of
tears ; that was my mother's portrait
to perfection.
Lady Latimer liked best of all to
hear about the boys ; their adventures ,
their escapades , their desperate encounters -
counters , their daily deadly peril of
life and limb , amused her more than
anything else. She would talk to me
of myself , and what would b3 myprob-
able fate. I could see nothing before
me but a few more quiet years at
home , faen probably a marriage with
a high church curate ; but Lady Lati-
mer would .laugh and assure me there
was something more than that in store
for me.
"We shall see what those dark eyes
and that dark hair of yours will do for
you , Audrey , " she would say. For my
DWfl part , could not imagine why
eature made. the oldest of nine chil-
iren .and the'daughter of a country
vicar , beautiful.
During all of those long hourswhen
[ i.fe .at that icarage was dissected and
Laid bare , no word wa ever spoken of
Eierself orof Lord Latitner. The

mvcr crossed her lips or mine. I en-
joycci my visit.I loved Lady Latimer ;
verything and every 'one was pleasant
tud agreeable to me , mnd when the
'ime of my visit ended. . I returned to
he vicarage. . I should like to de-
; cribe that first night of mine at home
-how the boys surrounded me , and
vould insist ipon every detail , the
nest absorbing of which were what I
tad to eat and to drink. Their eyes
pened widely at the history of one of
he dinners at Dorton's Cray. Charley ,
vho was alwtys suspected of being a
ourmand , cried ecstatically , 'I wish
had been there ! " The result of our i
onvorsation was an anxious Inquiry I
, s to whether Lady Latimer meant to t
avite them , and when 1 told themt
bat she had even fixed on a day , their c
elight knew no bounds.
I was not much surprised a few days C ,
fterwarcl , to find Lord Latimer in my t
ithor's study , and he'had come with.a t
equest , a - petitioiijaprayer frornLady ii

self lonely , and when she was lonely
she was not voll. There was a grave
consultation between my parents.
My mother said how useful I
I was to her , and how munch she
I should miss my help among the
I children and in the house.
father said that ho had never anticipated -
ted any of his daughters leaving home ,
but the stipend ofiereda bundrcl and
fifty pounds per annum , was a large
on' : , and would be a great help with
the number of children and the small
income. My dear mother argued that
I should be able to spare at least one
hundred for the use of those at home.
At last it was decided. My father
held out time longest ; his pride was
touched at timO thought that one of his
- daughters should have to leave home.
But even that yielded before the
thought of the comfort that that additional -
tional hundred per annum . would give
him.
There was dismay and dread among
the boys ; there was , in fact , a revolti-
tion. Why should Audrey ; their own
sister and special friend , go away
from them to Jive with Lady Latimer ?
It was not fair. and they decided in
their own especial parlance "not to
stand it. " Their sister belonged to
them , and not to Lady Latimer. They
wished now that she had never come
to Lorton's Cray. They wanted Aud-
i.ey for themselves. The dear , gentle
mother listened in patience. Then
she explained to them the great advantages -
vantages that must be derived from
another hundred per annum , and what
a nice timing it would be fth' me to be
always well dressed , and meet-lug peo-
Pie rlio moved in high society.

Bob , reproachfully. ' Tliere is no one
better than you and my father. "
My mother kissed him in her quiet ,
genUo fzlion.
.I1) will be best , my dear"she said.
Ami then the boys knew that their
plan of itction had failed.
There was only one comfort for
them : living at Lorton's Cray , forming
one of that most august household , I
should be able to obtain some indulgences -
dulgences for them , such as an occasional -
casional ride or drive ; and afterward
both Lord and Lady Latimer proved
very kind in this respect. They were
kind altogether ; great hampers of
game and fruit went from the hail to
the vicarage ; great parcels of toys
came for the boys , but the privilege of
riding was the one they valued most.
So it came about that I was installed -
stalled at Lorton's Cray s a corn-
panion to its mistress , with a salary of
one hundred and fifty per annum , and
a nice room of my own. I thought
myself the most fortunate of girls.
AnQ now I come to the heart of my
story. I had left the simple , happy
home of my youth. I was in a new
world and a new sphere of life. I
must add this one remark while speaking -
ing of myself : I was just eighteen , but
like many eldest daughters of large
families , I was much older than my
years. I had , it seemed to me , passed
through the experience of a lifetime.
and I believe most eldest daughters
have the same feeling.
From the moment I entered the
house until the strange events happened -
pened which close my story , Lady
Latimer clung to mc with wonderful
love. She seemed to rely on me , to
trust me. She never liked to have me
out of her sight. No sister ever cared
for another as she did for me.
I remember one bright June morning -
ing she was standing on the lawn feeding -
ing some tame doves The sunlight
lay on her golden hairlier white dress ,
and. the cluster of roses at her thi'oat ;
a picture fair -as the -day itsell. There
was a dreamy sadness in her exquisite
face. She .left the pretty birds , and
stood looking over 'the square of foun-
talus. The beautiful silvery spray
rose high in the air.
I went up to her. Her eyes wore a
dreamy , far-off look 'that I have never
seen in any other face.

Lamp Shades.
An English electrical firm is intro-
ilucing some triking novelties in dee-
tric lamp shades. These shades are
made -of a specially selected description -
tion of natural feathers , dyed in choice
tints , and arranged in artistic shapes
and combinations of color. Among
other beautiful designs of shades for
floor and table lamps are the repre-
entations of various kinds of flowers ,
made separately and grouped together
on skeleton frames. The result is an
entire departure from the hackneyed
style of silk amid lace shades now in
vogue. The general construction
of the shades is protected by
a patent. , andevery design
is registered. It isa noteworthy
fact that the -designer of nearly all the
patterns is a young woman , who derives -
rives an exceilent income from her
work.

The Dog Feared a Scarcity ofCake at the

A lady near here recently made a
cake to take to a society supper , and
after it was well frosted set it out of
doors to cool. When she went for it it
had disappeared , and not having time
to bake another , sbe had to buy one to
carry. The same afternoon a church
circle , who vcre getting ready for a
supper , were called out by a big dog ,
who was found on the steps to time yes-
try holding in his month a haudsome
cake on a pan. No one recognized the
dog , but , supposing he had been sent
by some one , time cake was taken from ,
him , he giving it up cheerfully. But
on inquiry later : no one could be found
v1to knew anything about the dog.
The mystery increased until it caine to
the cars of the lady who lost the cake ,
but even yet the mystery of the dogs
friendship for that church is unsolved.

Here is a really funny story which
vill amuse all vlio are interested in
football. On the occasion or a great
match in one of the English counties ,
between a number of military officers
and a team of barristers , the former
had prepared a splendid lunch for the
visitors before the game. . Both teams
did thorough justice to the lunch , and
the legal gentlemen going in strong for
the indigestibles. the officers anticipated -
pated an easy victory. On looking
towards the football-grounds , however ,
after lunch , the officers espied a remarkably -
markably fresh-looking lot of giants
kicking the ball about , and , in amazement -
ment , asked their guests who the
strangers were.
'Oh , " replied one of them. just finishing -
ishing his last mouthful. 'tbats our
playing team : we are only the lunch-
lug team , you know. "

A word Alotit Ducks.
When ducks have been properly cared
for , they often begin laying as early as
January , though February is he more
usual time. The eggs from ducks bring
nearly double the price of hens' eggs
in some markets , and as the duck will
lay from 101) to 140 eggs she is a very
valuable fowl. In feeding ducks do
not give them too much grain to the
exclusion of other foods. Cooked turnips -
ips , with a small quantity of ground
meat added and enough ground oats ,
and cornmeal to make the mess palatable - '
table , will make a cheap meal and
answer all purposes , but if they arc
laying well they should be fed three
times a day. beginning early in the
morning. They must have animal food ;
in some form , or they wilinot lay well.
Weak legs indicate not only that the
ducks are overfed , but when the quarters -
ters are damp they svill sometimes get
the rheumatism. it is best to ahlow
them to run out for exercice when it
can be done. tnd their quarters should
lie clean , witi plenty of cut straw on
t te floor.

Effects of Moierzi 1LiI1i Bullets.
Professor Bols lieymond , the physi-
ologist. has been experimenting as to
the effect of modern German rifle bullets -
lets on the human body. lie says :
"The bullet of the old styled rifle bored
only a comparatively small hole in the
portions of the body through which it
passed , whereas time new bullet has an
astonishing explosive effect. If , for instance -
stance , time ball passes through the
head of the corpse , the skull is burst
asunder in all directions , and very little
of the head remains. ' The professor
explains by saying that the speed of the
bullet is so great that when it meets
an obstacle it dashes to pieces exactly
time same as drops of hardened glass
burst asunder when the points arc
broken off.
