Tin f.c.-ntliiicTi of Cove lmuse wit upon
thf iiia;::i:i. smoking and looking at the
sea it tumbled in, when the evenin
cn;ir!i. laden with piled up bairas and
: !-. ciii ie rattlin:; down the ttirn
; i!.e ;:i:l made the sweep which led up
to the hotel. This in it:self was mattf-i
:iouh for attention, but when, in the
wake of the yellow old cotch, just le-
yosiil its rlouds of dust, a ulitterin. littlo
poiiv earria-'e rolled swiftly on, a dozen
pair of lazy eyes grew interested and ex
.taut.
The eoach drew up with a scientific
'' uridi. and the sweating horses stood
;;:iJi;j;c with the tug through the heavy
in 1. while the driver leaped down, and
irh much tumbling and crashing ot
."inks the old stage was unladened.
.Meanwhile the ihmiv carriage, holding
i.wo "iris, rolled smooth! v up to it side
door, and three waiters were instantly
in attendance upon them.
The ladies alighted, and the two dis-
iIeared at the private door of the Cove
house.
"Who are they?" asked Paul Ilanover,
.vithdraving his cigar from his mouth
mi l turning lii- handsome blue eyes on
v friend at his cIImjw.
Fane King, who was looking thought
i !ly or.t at sea. replied quietly th it he
:. 1 not Know.
-Il'.i 'diss Pavson, of New York," said
Will McKenzie, who knew everybody,
At any rate, that's her turnout."
Which one?"'
The blonde, I suppose. I never met
tier, out siie was at JNewport wntn my
sifter l:ist se:uson. Ticc, aint she?"
Who is the other one?"'
'l aon t Know, f oor cousin, I pre
sume.
Hanover and King relapse to their
cigars; but everybody was thinking
iii'-re or less of Miss Payson.
The ladies appeared nt supper. There
were only five of their party the old
g' titleman. the two young ladies and an
invalid child of 13 with her nurse. It
was :u)on remarked that they appeared
sufficient for themselves, and neither
sought nor received acquaintances. The
face of the blonde girl was n.i jolie with
out the jockey hat as with it, but the
profile of her com-:.;n'. xi only was to be
u'-n. A broad black ribbon bound
around t'-.e chin and nearly concealing
a wealth of rich brown hair revealed
only the side view of a set of regular
features and one smooth, fresh cheek.
"What can be tho matter?" questioned
t!i- ladies one of the other.
So. without the least possible informa
t ion on the subject, Alice Payson was
il -cided to be an object of misfortune
and compassion, while unconcealed ad
miration and adulation were offered the
:d!ier one.
I cannot say that either appeared much
.ffr-eted by the regard of those around
:h' in. Certainly they spoke to no one
ur at least three weeks. People became
discouraged about making their ac
quaintance, and few more attempts were
tvi'd.
But tilings inevitably changed. One
v.-imig when all Cove house was in the
nvf a scre.-.in arose. The scream was
i. -Mowed by a frantic cry:
"Alice! Oh, Alice! She i.i drowning!
ve her! save her! save her!"
"Who can swim':" wad the cry.
Long before it was answered Fane
:Ci".ig wa:i seen striking out boldly for
.:.-.-.pot.
Cut he had some fori y rods to swim,
: d it was p7-obablo that Alice Payson
h.-vl ?uiik for the second time while the
-ii org tide swf lied against the rocks.
"Swim. man. swim!' shouted the eld
::icle Ui..u the beach.
"Save her, oh. for God':; sake!" cried
.".T".ud. wringing her hands.
IZv.t within a few strokes of Fane
-Z'.i'-'.-i outstretched arms Alice d'isap-
cired.
There was already death upon her
k.-sed eyes and pallid forehead. He
thought it was a corpse he clasped as lie
dropped beneath the surface and caught
b- r sinking figure.
It was with difficulty he arose to the
Mirfaee. Thrice the great billows rolled
over his head before he appeared. He
could only hold himself and his burden
off the cruel rocks. Already his arm
was lacerated with their sharp teeth.
They had rut out a boat, and it at
:ast came to his relief. As they lifted
: ii" senseless girl into the wherry they
raw that the black riblion had been torn
from her face, and a large, dull red, dis
colored mark -appeared. It showed more
l lainly in the otherwise deadly pallor of
her sweet face, for sweet it was, and
pirre as a child's. They covered face and
dgnre reverently, thinking her quite
lead, and rowed back while Fane found
his way up the rocks to have his hand
wrung Fpewulessly by the. agonized old
.nan.
"I don't think she is dead. Mr. Pay
ioii, snid Fane, remembering with a
thrill the silken hair which 'had washed
against his lips. ."She cannot be dead!"
She was not dead. In three days she
tppeared among them again, fairer,
.rentier, sweeter than ever, and frankly
-vattful for the interest everybody be
trayed in her. And then it came out
:hat there had been a mistake. It was
Alice who was the heiress and Maud the
,!oor cousin, though as beautiful, as ra
liant and perfect as a Hebe.
Miss Alice Payson, with the bUick riln
oon replaced, tried to thank Fane King
n the first day of her reappearance, but
aer brown eyes filled and she only said:
. "You.are yonng; life is' sweet to you;
t was- noble in vou to ruk.i our-.l'or iue,
Mr. King."
Fane's heart swelled ao that ho hardly

Alice Payson a light hand and toe
of her sweet eyes affected him as no
hand or eyes had ever affeefbd him be
fore The ice once broken, a bevy of gentle
men strove for the attrition of the cous
ins. Paul Ilanover was foremost.
He was very handsome, fair, brilliant,
grace ful. He was not poor cither. Fanf
Vvheinliered that bitterly as he haw hiir-
Ftrolling with Alice on the beacn or driv
ing for her the little pony varriage. His
own icace and comfort seemed suddenly
gone. Miss Paysou's gentle friendliness
only made him worse.
He was startled one day as if shot bv
Ilanover remarking:
"If you're not altogether gone with the
blues, Fane, I'd like you to congratulate
u fellow."
"Have you won your bet on the trot
ting match':"
"Pshaw! hang trotting matches! Don't
be stupid. Fane. Haven't I been riding
with Miss Payson?"
"Well?"
"Well it is," pirouetting around the
room and snapping his fingers like cas
tanets. "I'm the fond lietrothed of a
lovely girl, after the latest novel. Now,
what have you to say, my respectable,
moping friend?"
Fane tried hard to command himself
und not betray his secret.
"Alice Payson is too good for you,
Paul," he answered, with an attempt at
being sage and composed, in which he
succeeded but tolerably.
"I dare 6ay, but it isn't her. Fane."
" 'Taint her?" looking electrified.
"Certainly not. The money's very
well, but that defect of hers it's a deli
cate subject, but I really couldn't marry
a girl with a disfigurement like that."
"You mean that you are engaged to
Maud?" asked Fane, hardly believing his
ears.
"Exactly."
"Why, I congratulate you, with all
my heart!" jumping up excitedly.
"They are going away to-morrow.
Don't you want to see them again?"
Fane went down upon the piazza
where the ladies sat, unreasonably
happy.
The ladies were standing upon the
piazza, in the early sunlight, when he
approached Alice Pa3-son to say good-by.
Paul was talking to Maud, saucy and
beautiful in her jockey hat as Fane
found his way to AVce's side.
"Good-by, Mr. King. You will come
and see us, with your friend?" she said.
There was no one very near. He an
swered: "No; I love you, and so I must say
good-by forever, Alice."
He saw the delicate features pale. At
that instant old Mr. Payson came hurry
ing out., followed hy a porter with a large
valise in each hand.
"Ready, girls?" he called. "Come,
hurry, or we'll miss the train."
Alice, with downcast face, gathered
up her gray trailing skirt. He thought
she was going without a word, but sud
denly she looked up into his eyes.
"No. Come." she said. And then in
a moment she was gone, the dainty car
nage glittering down the beach.
A week later he waited for her in the
costly splendor of her drawing room.
She came down, giving him her soft
hands, nor resisting his embrace.
"I love you so!". he murmured.
"Do you, reall- with this disfigured
face?"
"I never think of it, Alice."
She laughed then and slipped off the
black ribbon, and there was one smooth
cheek a:s fair and perfect as the other.
I had blistered my face for the tooth
ache. It was nothing lasting, you see."
When Fane told Ilanover his happi
ness, or as much of it as can be expressed
in words, he looked as if there was some
thing unsaid upon his mind, but when
iie beheld Alice under her bridal veil he
seemed suddenly enlightened.
If I hadn't been afraid of a black rib
bon,"' he murmured. "I might have been
tiftv thou.-aud dollars richer."

llimri That l.ikr Ilimiiiii I-'Iesli.
There npjieared in the papers some
time ago a story of a horse which, stand
ing in a Toronto street, mistook for new
mown hay the blonde hair of a young
lad- on the sidewalk, seized it in its wa
tering mouth and was rewarded by a
blow between the eyes which could liave
ben possible only in the days of roomy
garments. One of the beauties of that
storv was that it was rigidly true, al
though the name of the horse's owner
was withheld. But since then either the
same animal or a tun brotner by the
same sire and out of the same dam has
been making a name for himself as a
luncher off melton coat sleeves, sealskin
caps, bearskin boas and tweed capotes.
He is a pretty little roan beast, owned
by Larry Cosgrave, and a very snapping
turtle in harness. He stood hitched to a
little cutter in front of the Bank of Com
merce aud had five minutes of solid en
joyment, during which time he nearly
pulled the a.nn out of an advertising
ent. The arm looks as if it had been
vaccinated. But Larry Cosgrave's horse
is not the only one in the city that has
fallen into evil .ways. It is a common
thing to see these ferocious animals
sprawled half way across the sidewalk,
seeking whom, they may devour. To

A marked improvement is at once
noticeable in those who. having pre
viously existed in small, air tight rooms,
timely avail themselves of an abundance
of nature's most generous gift. Pure
air will . not only prevent disease, but
effectually overcome feelings of languor
and faintness. It will brighten the in
tellect, and make new creatures of the
old wrecks, who by their very pres-
ence will exalt, ennoble and glorify the
