Madge was sitting upon the hearth rug, pulling to pieces a white camellia and excusing herself to her kind old guardian by saying it was "only Jack's." My dear," said Mr. Selwyn, walk ing up and down and slrokng his gray beard in perplexity, " I want to talk to yon about Jack." "Oh! please, not now, Tapa Sel wyn!" She called him Papa Selwyn when she meant to be coaxiug, and that was nearly always. "But, my dear, that is all nonsense. I must talk about Jack some time. Yes terday it was, 4 Oh ! please don't my head is aching;' and the day before, Oh! ploase don't I wan't to go out with Gerty.' Come, let us face this af fair." And sitting in tho easy chair be hind her hassock, he drew up on his kntes the ljand that held the broken llower and proceeded to lecture his un manageable charge on the endless sub ject of " Jack." Madge was a charming charge for any kind old man's heart to nave. No one could look into her large gray eyes without seeing tho great warm heart, whose tale they told every moment; and yet the bright quick glances and the saucy set of the lips showed that Madge had a. will of her own and wit and clev erness enough to carry it through. The lecture on Jack was the same as many others had been. It consisted of two parts, the first being devoted to proving that she ought to throw her own whims and pleasures aside, and as a dutiful girl fulfill her dying father's re quest and marry her cousin ; and the second was a culogium on tho many good qualities of Jack Hawkesbury. 44 Do, Mr. Selwyn," laughed Madge, after he had been making out that even Jack's awkwardness came from an over plus of good nature; "do throw him at Gerty's head as you throw him at mine and I shall make him over to her, and they will be happy for life." Gerty was Mr. Selwyn 's own daugh ter, antl at the mention of her name a strange expression crossed his face, which Madge could not read. " Throw nim at Gerty's head! what words you use, child!" he exclaimed, his annoyance for a moment escaping his control. "I wish you had half Ger trude's good sense. You fancy Jack thinks of her is that it? He is the soul of honor, and as far as it depends on him your father's word will be kept." "Oh! Papa Selwyn, don't be vexed with me; I am so sorry!" and her face was hidden on his large rough hands in a burst of sorrow, quite childish in its passing intensity. 44 Cheer up, my darling girl," he said ; "you made a mistake that's all. "Why, one of these days you will forget poor Papa Selwyn altogether, when you fall in love with your cousiu." 44 That I won't! "cried Madge, with all the strength of her hot heart. All her life, even so far back as her childhood, she had dreaded the fate that bound her to marry her cousin. When Jack Hawkesbury c me on the scene and stayed on visits at the house, she disliked and ridiculed him without mer cy. Another, one like fair-haired Ger trude for instance, might have accepted the inevitable aud been happy; but Madge's active and independent nature made her run against fate. And now there was only one month left before her twenty-first birthday and the be trothal. Often she told Gertrude she wished he would go home and stay there; and Gertrude would only laugh, with a deeper tinge of color on her fair The girls went out but little, an ar rangement against which Madge often rebelled, believing it was in some way connected with the safe management of the marriage with her cousin. But there were two pleasures in prospect now, an afternoon's boating with Jack iticI a friend of his and Gertrude, and a party that the Ponsoby-Joneses were going TjOglvejtu wmi; u iuo jcirijii.iAiu were sure to be invited.

Gertrude was watching tne Shores and thn ninninc rinnlfts. thinking in her quiet, easy-going way. Madge, bright with excitement, was talking not with Jack, but with the dark-bearded, travel-bronzed man who was resting from his turn at the scull3 He was charmed with the war she chat- ted and listened to his tales of half the world, with a refreshing absence of self- consciousness. What would he have said if he had known the thought that strove for entrance into her heart? On! if Jack awkward, blundering, good- natured Jack could be changed into this stranger that she called timidly Mr. ruzauan, and Jack and her guardian had (rrpoti1 nt. tho limian ng Tlorhorl f At last there was a pause in the talk. She gave a deep sigh, prompted by a sad longing to do right, a vague fear, a first suspicion of tho change that was coming over her impetuous heart. "Are you cold, Madge?" asked Jack, pulling away and bending to his strong stroke. " Keep 3our shawl well about your shoulders. And, my dear girl, look to vour steering. You have been sending the boat into curves like a cork - screw only I did not want to disturb your tele a-'cte." Poor Cousin Jack! She drew the white shawl closely round her, chilled not by the wind but by a sudden pang of remorse, the foundation of which was very small, but enough to trouble her peace. What need to tell the inner history of Madge's life during the next few weeks? More and more she longed for freedom. 1'itzallan was staying in'the neighbor hood and was frequently at the house, and in the thousand little incidents of every-day life she knew he cared for her, and honest Jack grew yet more distaste ful in her sight. In duo time came the second promised pleasure. The family that distinguish ed the name of Jone3 by the prefix of ronsonby gave their party. Madge was in her glory that night. One looker-on called her charming; another, the moth er of fair daughters, admitted her ex pression was charming, but voted her features plain. Mrs. I'onsonby-Jones, weighed down with bright-colored silk and jewelry, said in her finest tone that" Mr. Selwyn's ward would be quite a femme iVcsprit. Madge had no lack of society, but she kept a place in the conversation for Jack Hawkesbury, and her love of mischief was gratified to the full by his making of it what he called "a hawible muddle." But the trivial triumphs and pleasures of the night were long forgot ten by Madge before she lost one remembrance of a scene that passed in the conservatory, where the music was hushed by heavy curtains, and there was only the soft light of a few dim lamps among the masses of blossoms and dark green leaves. She had lost the llower from her hair one of her lavorite camel liasas she said " with a darling bud," and Fitzallan had promisee, with Pou-sonby-Jones's permission, to get her another with a darling bud too. Sho had placed his gift in bar hair, and she sat near the dewy glass, saying it was cool there and she would rest. Fitzullan siood at a little distance, penknife in hand still, swinging carelessly tho fan like leaf of a dwarf palm. 44 If this were neaier, I could fan you," he said. 44 Thank you; I am tired rather than hot." Never in her life before had Madge been so serious vr so troubled as she was now, in the s": ft light among the cool plants, within sound of the half hushed music. 44 Will j'ou do me a favor?" sho in quired, raising the gray eyes that shone for a moment with liquid brightness. 44 You have only to name it 1 am at your service." His manner, unromantic to a studied degree, made her feel all the more safe in taking heart to speak, while she gave him at the same timo in generous meas ure that most precious offering to which every noble-hearted man entitles him self a woman's respect. 44 1 have seemed very happy to-night, Mr. Fitzallen," she began in a quiet, low one, the torn leaf trembling in her hand and the color dying out of her face, "but I am in great trouble." 44 Indeed. I am sorry to hear it." He drew a little nearer, listening atten tively and helping her now and again by a word of encouragment. Her story was a simple one. She was to bo married next month to her cousin, Mr. Hawkesbury. She had dreaded it all her life, but itwas her fate. And then taking courage from the respectful aud almost paternal demeanor of her listener she made tho frank confession that sho disliked her cousin just because she was forced to marry him ; and to this she added such a child-like entreaty not to bo thought "too bad," that it must have required more than ordinary self-control for Fitzallen not to say something that would have allowed the scone to become a tender one; bst this he seemed determined to avoid, and so in her simple way was the sadly per plexed girl that was pouring out her hear's trouble to him. 44 Will you speak for me to Mr. F el wyn," she said,"asyou are an old friend of hisP I can not reason as men do, but I want you to try if there is any way of release for me. Pray forgive me if I am wrong in asking your interference, but I am very wretched" here came a burst of tears that must have tried the listener sorely " and I myself have so often spoken to Mr. Selwyn, and it is of no use. He always says my father's will must be carried out; and oh! how I wish I could do it." 44 It must be done, if possible," Fitz allan said. " But it would not be your father's will to mar the happiness of your sweet life or to put you in bond age." 44 O! if Mr. Selwyn would only speak like that," said tho girl sadly. 44 Well, I shall have atalk with him," said Fitzallan, " and do my best for you happiness, though I would be sor ry to injure Hawkesbury's prospects. Let us go back now; there is a new piece beginning. That is one of Rubin stein's, i3 it not? I need not say you have done me a favor in granting me your confidence." With that he drew aside the heavy curtains, and they returned to the daz zling light an b'ewildering music and movement of the ball room. Alter that night Madge waited in anx iety to hear the result of Fitzallan's parley with her guardian. Three days passed and a note came from him, only a iew wurus, aajiug mac ne naa suc ceeded at least so far as to win a prom ise that the matter should be considered. But Madge saw little good coming of Mr. Selwyn's " considering " what seemed to be decided irrevocably long ago. At last it was the eve of her birth- day; to-morrow would be the dreaded alon; day, and that very morning Mr. Selwyn bad said to her gravely, but tenderly: 44 Mv child, it ha3 been the work of many years for me to tee to the folfill- J . -.,...

In the afternoon twilight, some time after - - V ..p-. . ." , Mr. Selwvn hail returned home, the found him asleep in bu arm-chair in the dark dining-room came in between the red curtains, and i it was only the glow of the fixe that showed her his white hair and long , beard.

No, o, Mailgo be so patn- my little Madge that 13 to archal to-morrow." " Papa Selwyn," she began, not giv ing him time to joko any more lest she might not be able to disclose all her troub'es, " I want to tell you Mjmething, and you won't be angry, will you, uo matter what it is?" He took her face between hi hand.-', , and the lire llasbcd up and showed him how earnest it was. " I am quite sure," he said, "nothing u;wi uiano uiu auj itiiuj; uut kJ vwj-j iu ,...., mnT.n ..r O n T hinr. Ilt fl llKAIl ll love with my second daughter as a poor old fellow like me can be. Why, child, I am under a cloud all day because to morrow as soon as to-morrow I can be Papa Selwyn no more, and Madge will be thinking about nobody but her cousin." "No, indeed!" cried Madge impetu ously, " you will be Papa Selwyn al ways always; and I don't care for my cousin a bit." But her guardian shook his head gravely. 44 My dear, 3'ou will marry jour cousin." The firelight had died down low, and Madge had courage enough to blurt out withan effort the few words : 44 1 can't marry Jack, because I ought to love my husband, and I can never care enough for him. Or, if I must be engaged to him to-morrow" here there was a great sob " Mr. Fitzallan is very good and kind, and I don't want to hurt him but but he must go away." Her head sank upon hi3 kuees with the great effort of that request. "My poor child," he said, "1 know your secret. Bravely said! my little Madge, my bonny girl! You have had tho truth out and done nobly. You arc worthy of the man that is to have j'ou, and that is saying a good deal." Then raising her head gently, he bade her listen, for ho was going to tell a secret in return for hers. When she heard it she waited with wide, wondering eyes while he told it a second time, for she could not believe in her joy. "As you know, Madge," he began, "most peo ple in this world have more cousins than one." And then he went on to explain to her that Herbert Fitzallan was a very distant cousin and that it was to him her father wished her to be mar ried. Fitzallcu's father had been the companion of his labors and Herbert himself had been loved by the dying man as a son, for Herbert was 20 when little Madge was an orphaned baby of four. "You ask what about Jack, then?" said the old man. "That was my clever trick upon Madge. 1 never said you were to marry Jack. I told j'ou of your father's wish. I brought , .lack here, the only cousin you knew; anu 1 praised ms good qualities wuicn are fine enough, I can tell jou, and ap preciated by a young lady not far from here. I knew that wayward heart of yours, and I knew that a woman should not marry without real love, and a great store of it, too. So I left my darling open to the idea that Jack was to be the lucky fellow; and she did just what I and all sensible folks expected almost hated Jack and her doom. Then I took care that the man you were meant for who, my dear, has the best and truest heart in the world should come in the way just at the right time and show an interest in you. So have I not succeed ed and made my Madge choose her father's choice with her own free heart and will? As for Fitzallan, he is all impatience for to morrow, and he would have told you the secret at that ball the other night, but he had promised me never to disclose it till we were quite sure of success. Well, are you happy now, Madge"" 4 My dear, good second father! How can I love you enough?" was all she could say when she felt his arms round her in that moment of fulfilled desires, and his lips pressed to her forehead in fatherly affectionnow that his long solic itude wa-i at an end and his hard task well done. That very night Madge, scarcely able to realize her joy, was betrothed to Her bert Fitzallan, who, when once the secret was disclosed, would not wait another hour. 44 Have I not waited years?" he said. "All my time abroad I was waiting, and then I came back and I found my Madge more than ever I had dared to hope." But Madge in her new freedom did not forget poor Jack. Indeed she was almost in trouble about her unkindness to him when she heard that he had been only playing a part, bearing all her teasing, and being purposely ungracious whenever she grew kind, fiut Gertrude consoled her effectually on that score by telling another secret "after her kiss of congratulation. 44 Jack was indeed doing his best to carry out the plan," she said; "and he was often grieved about you ; but, dear Madge, you must congratulate us now not me, but us. Jack and I made it up between us months ago, and wo had many a quiet laugh about you." So Madge herself accepted the ring and wore her golden fetters by her own free will after all; nor was there ever a happier or more willing captive. As for Fitzallan, if ho was not another Ar thur, as the girl's fancy had prompted her to call him, he was " blameless" as the Prince of the " Idyls," and far more blesl; and if he reigned over no realm ho was at least king of one brave and tender heart a kingdom wide enough to satisfy his desires and a prize which time Droved to be well worth his years of waiting.

Perhaps one of the most appropriate uses of an old fruit-can that can be de vised is to make it contribute to the growth of new fruit to fill new cans. This is done in the following manner: The can is pierced with one or more pin-holes, and then sunk in the earth near the roots of the strawberry, or to mato, or other plants. The pin-holes are to be of such size that when the can is filled with water the fluid can only escape into the ground very slowly. Thus a quart can, properly arranged, will extend its irrigation to the plant through a period of several days; the can is then refilled. Practical trials of this method of irrigation leave no doubt of its success. Plants thus watered flourish and yield the most bounteous returns throughout the longest droughts. In all warm localities, where water is scarce, the planting of old fruit-cans, as here indicated, will be found profitable as a regular gardening operation.
