MY NARROW ESCAPE. Contsnued. I was in something of a hurry that

night, for [ had an appointment ; and I may as well state here that it was with

a young lady, whea I hoped wonld be|

my wife before many months.

1 hastened to my boarding house,ate my supper, and then weut over to Mr.

Warner's wearing the overcoat with the.

money in it, as I did not feel easy about leaving it io my room. Carrie was at bome, of course, as she was ex- pecting me, and leaving my coat and hat in the hall, 1 went into the parlor. I do not think a repetition of our con- versation would be very luteresting, 80 I will pass it, merely remarking that nothing occurred to disturb me until I arose to take my leave.

Carrie went into the entry for my coat and hat, that I might put them on by the warm fire, but she camo back with only my hat.

‘Why, Fred, you certainly did not venture outon such a night as this witb- out an overcoat ?’

‘No coat!’ I exclaimed in a dazed

sortof way, for the thought of the}.

money flashed upon me so suddenly, that it almost stunned me.

The next moment | tore past her like amadman,as [was. The coat was gone |

Then I was unnerved. I grasped at the stair-rail, and caught it just in time to support myself. Carrie was runn- ing out, her.face pale with alarm,

‘Oh, Fred! are you sick ? Let me eall motber and doctor! You are as white as a sheet!’

‘No, no,Carrie!’ Leatreated. ‘There, I am better now.’

And I was better. I was strong all at once—esperately strong. And what about this change ? That simple re- ceipt which I had in my pecket. An- derson had nothing to show that the money had been paid; and was not my unaided word as good as his.

I was foolish enough to believe that Icould brave it through, and I grow confident and quite easy at once.

‘There, Carrie, I am much better now. The room was too warm, I guess. So some sneaking thief hus

dodged in andstolen my coat? Well, let it go. It was an old one, and now I'll have a better one.’

‘ But was there nothing in the pockets asked Carrie.

It is strange how suspicious guilt will inake us. I really thought that Carrie suspected me, and an angry reply was on the end of my tongue. I suppressed it, however, and uttered a fulscheod instead.

‘Nothiag of consequence, Carrie. A good pair of gleves and some other trifling notions.’

‘I am ylad it is no worse, Fred. Now if you will wait just a moment, I will get you ono of fathor's coats to wear home.

Thus equipped, I left her.

You may guess that my slumbers that night were not very sound, nor refresh- ing. I never passed a more miserable night, and in the morning my haggard looks were the subject of remark,

‘Why, Fred, you look as though you had met a legion of ghosts last night !’ said Winston. ‘ What's the matter ?’

‘T had a bad nightof it,’ I answered with a sickly smile.

‘And you'll have another if your're not careful. You had better keep quiet to-day. By the way did you write to Anderson ?’

I do not know how I managed to re- ply, for the question set me to shivering from head te foot, and I was se weak that I could scarcely sit in my chair.

I must have answered in the affirma. tive, however, for he said :

URSTOCK-TAKING SALE ( during the month of Febru- ary has been very successful ; we have therefore decided to continue it through this month. The demand for patterns, as everybody knows, is always great, and we regret to say that in this line we have been par- ticularly busy. The desire for “ snifs’’ has become chronic, but we trust a healthier state of things is in the future.

Our Dress Materials have had a steady sale, and give great satisfaction; their quality and

unsurpassed cheapness make them very tempting. Black

Cashmeres and Lustres are in ‘great request, in “snips” of 8 to 16 yards.

We have recently received a new lot of Gents’ Spring Over- coats and Suits, also a lot of ‘Suits for Boys; all at very low | prices. | Gents’ wear of all kinds we find to go off very rapidly. We call especial attention to our Fine Black Broadcloth, Tweeds, Linders and Drawers, Ties, Paper and Linen Collars, Hosi- ery, &c.

Carpets, Hemp, Scotch, Felt and ‘l'apestry, a very good as- 'sortment,and ridiculously cheap, Hearth Rugs, Door Mats, &c.

Table Damasks, Wool Table Covers, Linen Table Covers, Towels, 40 cents per doz. up wards.

Our Dress Fringes at 5 to 10

{cents per yard, and Ladies’ Dress {Caps at 10 to 20 cents, are sell- +, ing readily.

New Lot of Prime Teas just

ficome in; our 32-cent is nearly j/run out, but we have on hand a

few chests of 36-cent Tea, which we retail onLY, Our 40-cent

Tea is regarded as the best in

the city; but all grades sell rapidly. We sell in caddies of d, 8, 10, 15 or 29 lbs., neatly done up, so as to retain the flavor.

FYXHIS SCHOOL offers, at very moderate

cost. the advantages of a comfortable and pleasant home together with a thorough and refined education.

The course of Instruction is the same as that of the best Schools in Eugland and is founded upon the University Examinations for Women. Kight young ladies from this School passed the Local Examination of the University of King’s Coliege in June last. This is the only School in Canada that has passed pupils at a University Examination,

The number of pupils is limited, rendering the School select, and while it possesses all the educational advantages of a large public schoel, each pupil is enabled to receive that individual care and oversight which is so important, and which cannot be given ina large establish- ment.

Mr. and Mrs. Padfield are azsisied by a staff of four resident governesses, besides vitit- ing masters.

Parisienne French is taught eonversation- ally. There are twe resident French Gov- ernesses.
