It whs oiily one of Me ur ocen- pants of the room who, that evening Was conscious of this vague se1 something wanting. If it had been pos- sible for the others to feel it, the void
could not have existed.
A group of four. sitting at ease, very little of the air of expectancy usu- el to the waiting minutes before dinner. The reclined im a wide easy- chair beside one of the bay windows. She was a large, languid woman, ele- gantly dressed, but possessing in her handsome face that great want which ali her house held. She had _ three claims to individuality, and three only --a fine figure, a great ambition, end an overweening pride in her ealy child. And Mrs- Trent was performing her ewn peculiar mission es she sat smil ing upon her daughter and her guests, end bringing in, at every opportunity, G@ainty allusiong to ber titled acquaint auces. In the oormer of a small couch mear her reclined heg daughter Thee dora, leaging forward gracefully from the cushions, while her long akirts of green satin Iny in rich folds upon the white rug. Her hair, of pale brown, was dressed high upon her head, as was the fashion of that year, and a butter- fly of gold and emeralds ghone with al- most dazzling lustre among the plaita ebove her temple. Her features were clearly cut and regular, like her mo- ther’s, and her eyes were of the same light blue, but her lips were still more haughty im their curves, and even a lit: tle colder in their rest. A handeome woman undeniably was Theodora Trent, yet in her faultlems features that guest, to whom her face is turned so often, sees that ome vague deficiency which is

about him always in this house.
Upon the rug, with his elbow on the chimney-piece, and the fingers of one hand toyiag with his silky, pale mous- tache and whiskers, lennged Captain Hervey Trent, mephew eof his hostees and the husband selected for her only
| dtwghter—not simply because he was
ge sure to imherit old Myddelten’s meney, but because be was in every Way suitable for a son-in-law. Hend- weme and elegant. he graced society, and weuld add te her daughter's pepu larity: easy and indolent, he would not be likely to rebel against the will of a nrother-in-law-

at ania would take the right care of am distinctly maiden] self, this complaint would never be heard. The woman whe suffers from weakmess and disease of the delicate feminine organs is unfitted for her duties, either in the house or in the office.
Young unmarried women, ¢5 ecially, do not like to confide their troybles ef this nature to their home doctor, They shudder at the thought of the examinations and local applications to which they may have to submit. These are entirely unnecessary. and all letters addressed to Dr. R. V. Piefce, Buffalo, N. Y., are held in the most sacred confidence. Dr. Pierce has been for thirty years chief consulting physician to the in- valids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y., one of the greatest medical institutions in the world. His neighbors made him congressman and he was a per- sonal friend of the martyr-president. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription cures all weakness and disease of the delicate and important organs of femininity, upon which depend a young woman’s health. Honest druggists don’t substitute.
“TI have recommended your * Favorite Prescrip- tion’ to a great many Of my friends, and e has not been a single lady who used it, but cured by it. It is the best medicine for females I have ever taken. I tried four doctors and they did me no good. They said I was bou d to die ;"’ thus writes Mrs. C. C. Clark, of New Kome, Floyd County, Georgia.
A bad business head and a bad working body are the results of biliousness and con- stipation. Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets are a sute cure for these ailments. They regu- late and invigorate the stomack, liver and bowels. One a laxative, two a mild cathar- tic. They never gripe. At medicine stores.

should who rightly understands fhe @x- igencies of “good form,” and ean ut-
terly ignore so vulgar an abstract idea as emotion:
A great contrast to her nephew, ws the one guest whom Mrs. Trent enter-
tained this evening—so great a contrast }
to them all, indeed, that not for years were they to comprehend the unreached heights and unsounded depths of a na- ture such as his. Nineteen women out ef twenty would unhesitatingly have pro- nounced Oaptain Hervey Trent the hindsomer man of the two; not one woman out of twenty could have Ia- vished on Hervey Trent one tithe of the thought and curlosity and admira- ticn which were woa from them—some times even against their will—by Roy- den Keith.
We have seen him before in the even- ing dusk at Abbotsmoor. Theodora Trent had seen him ‘before, but his face was still a riddle to her, as it had been from the first, and as it was atill to be. It wag a grave face when at rest, with its strange mixture of power and patience—a face full of deep and eon- centrated thought, but with never 4 shade of gloom wpon it, or trivial fret- fulness; a face that could be only brave and fearless, whether shadowed by that depth of thought. or brightened by the rare smile which Theodora tried t» pro- yoke. Its skin was so browned by the sun, the moustache and the short hair were so thick and dark, the lashes so long, and the tecth so white, that many took Royder Keith fora native of South ecru Spain or Italy, But that idea van- tshed after the first few moments, and most especially when he spoke. Thougir puzzled a Kttle now and ther by the trace of foreign travel, no one ceuld help being struck by what was esser tinlly English ip him; the straightfor- ward glance ef his eyes, clear-judging and far-seeing, and the voice, which, whether ringing to anger, falling te quiet irony, or softening te pathos, was, despite an accent or an idiem, picker np unconsciously in foreign lands; mest thoreughly English.
Ile was sitting opposite Mrs. Treant, his elbow om a table near the coneh on whieh she sat- She looked up frem him to Captain Trent, and down te him
agains Even her wunobservant eyes were puzzled by the difference im the attitvees ef the two young mem: and she trined for the last time frem her
term. ard the slew mo- tien «f his hands, to the tali, well-knit ficure whieh, though full of strength and ectivity, was yet capable ef an ease ond stiliness almest remarkable.
“And ean you really mean, Mr. Keith,” she said, dropping her fingers on a cabinet pertrait of herself which jay upon the table beside her. “that
you have never been photographed be

“Why ‘before’?” asked Royden, ex- tending his hand for the picture. “After all, I am rather giad,’’ she
mused, smilingly; “because now your first photograph will be taken with as.”
“How will that happen, Miss Trent?’
“I will tell you,” she answered, watch- inc his face as he examined the por- trait. “On the day of our picnic at Abbotsmoor, a little French photo- grapher, who lives in Statton, is to be tlere with his camera and take us all, with the old mansion for a background. Now you see why I am glad that will be pour first portrait.”
“Hardly.” Mr. Keith said this quiet- ly. he bent over the picture, and Theodora looked in vain for a smile.
“Interesting scene,” remarked Cap- tein Hervey, raising his blue eyes slow ly from the rug; “Lady Lawrenee re- Guires the picture, I beHeve; at any rate, she has proposed it through her lawyer. The dramatis personagq are to be old Myddelton’s relations, and the scene his ruinous estate. An elegant group and ebeerful surroundings—eh, Mr- Keith?’
“T do not know all old Mr. Myddel- ten’s relations.”
“You know the chief of them, Mr. Keith,” Theodora answered, unconsci- ous of the vanity of her words. and of the smile which accompanied them; “and you shall see them on Thursday at Abbotsmoor. You will not be. too proud to be photographed among them, will you?’
‘Without being one of the family. ought I to be included in the picture?”
There was an intonation that baf- fled Theodora, and she looked up wun- easily.
“Gertainly; I shall insist.”
She said this with her sweetest smile, and a certain manner which many young ladies of the present age affect -—a gracious condescension and self- assertion which, fh the last century, it would have taken a middle-aged ma- tron of the highest society to make bearable, but which now is chosen and assumed by many who,while they speak with open contempt of their fast or un f«rmed sisters, fail te see where they themselves have overstepped the lily- bordered path of fresh and simple gir! hood.
“One other member of old Myddel ten’s family you will see here to-night, Mr. Keith.” remarked Mrs. Trent, in 2 ture which seemed to entreat his leni-
is
| ency for the person ‘of whom she
spoke; “she is a niece of mine and cou- sin of my daughter's; though she be Jongs to quite the other side of the bhouse”’—on that “quite’ Mrs. Trent laid a deliberate emphasis. “We like to ask her here occasionally to show her a little society. She is a grown-up girl now, and rot unpresentable; so I do all I can for her, and allow Mer as close
an intercourse with my daughter as my daughter chooses to admit-” “Poor little Honor,” added “my
nee?
daughter,” with a laugh of particular complaisance. “She ig a thorough Cra- ven, as was——’”
“A thorough coward?” Royden ed, when she so abruptly paused.
“Oh, Mr. Keith,” laughed Theodora, pleasantly, “you whst I mean. At least, you do not know, of course. Why sheuld you be expected to know anything about old Myddelton’s fami- ly? 3ut this is how it is. Old Mr. had
ask-
know
Myddelton, you must understand, one brother and one sister, both a good deal younger than himself. The bro- ther married a Miss Graven—quite a pertionless girl—and the eister married very well. She did not agree with her brother as a young girl, and wert out with a friend to India, where she mar- rtd Sir Hervey Lawrence, a very rich old baronet of an excellent family. This nn pleased her brother immense y.”
