But the result had been announced by the lawyers to Mrs. Seymour that day—almost nothing, as she told the two girls. Des, the yornger daugiiter knew it already, having been present when the lawyers told her mother. Now she was out, no one knew just where. As neither Bell nor Laura replied to her tirst remark, Mrs. Seymour continued :—
‘I don t see what’s to be done, unless you girls can marry.’
‘I wonder who!’ said Laura, scornfully.
poor girls!’
‘Sometimes they do!’ said Mrs. Seymour, significantly. ‘And with your beauty and the clothes you have already, surely some- thing might be done!’ = we could go somewhere!’ suggested
ell.
‘That is out of the question!’ returned Mrs. Seymour.
‘We'll have to get money to buy more clothes before we do anything else,’ said
| Laura.
‘How do you propose to get it?’ asked Mrs. Seymour.
‘I don’t know. We might take boarders, like the Allyns did, when they failed.’
‘Oh, horrors!’ cried Mrs, Seymour.
* Laura, you're a fool |’ snapped Bell.
* Well, we will Aare to do something!’ stoutly insisted Laura.
‘Then do what I said—get married, as quickly as you can,’ said the mother. ‘By the way, girls, Harry Oxenford is home.’
‘Who told youl’ asked Bell, as the girls exchanged glances,
‘His sister, Mrs. Hunter. I met her in Schon’s store yesterday. And he’s richer than ever. IL used io fancy he admired one of you.’
‘He certainly used to be attentive to me,’ said Bell, with a slight simper.
‘Now, Bell, it was I he admired,’ said Laura, quigkly,
‘Was it! Perhaps it was Des!’ was Bell’s answer, given with strong sarcasm.
‘Fancy any man admiring that little black thing!’ cried Laura, angrily.
At that moment the door opened,and ‘that little black thing’ herself came in, with a sparkie in her eyes which suggested the idea that she might have heard the last words.
But they didn’t care if she had— Des was used to being snubbed by her sisters. Little she was, and undeniably cark, and not such a beauty as the tall, haughty blondes, Bel! and Laura’ But she had fine eyes, and when she was animated or ex- cited, many men who had fair tastes would have locked at her rather than at them. They would have looked just the same, going to be married or going to be hanged, because they had no expression and could not change.
‘Where have you been /’ was the chorus which greeted Desdemoni’s entrance.
‘Been solving the question,’ was her cvol reply.
‘What question /’ asked Mrs. Seymour.
‘The living question. Somebody has got to work. Aud I thought it might as well be my turn as not.’
‘Nothing dreadful,’ answered Des. ‘I have hired myself out, that’s all.’
‘Hired yourself out!’ scresmed both girls and the mother. ‘Good gracious! In somebody’s kitchen ?¢’
‘Not quite so bad as that. Though | would have done that, had nothing better offered. I have hired as clerk in Sloan’s fancy store, at six hundred dollars a year.’
‘A shop girl! Des, you mustn't! It would ruin us!’ groaned Bell.
‘Of course sne musin’t! Just fancy what people would say!’ echoed Laura.
‘Girl’s, let her alone, said Mrs. Seymour. ‘It wouldn't do for one of you of course, but Des is—is different, and no one will mind. She won’t need half her salary to dress on—’
‘I shall not need any of it, unless my shoes give out,’ said Des, firmly.
‘Well, say two hundred—and I tell you, girls, four hundred a year added to what we have will help you amazingly.’
‘Don’t let it get out then,’ cried Laura. ‘Harry Oxenford never would call on us if he knew our sister was a shop girl.’
‘Is he at home ?’ asked Des.
‘Yes, You don’t remember him,do you?’ said Bell.
‘It strikes me I ought too, as he has only been gone two years, andi am eighteen now.’
‘Oh, well, you were a mere schoolgirl,not out in company then.’
‘Perhaps. But I knew people when I saw ’em,’ said Des cvolly.
She did not say a word more about Mr. Harry Oxenford, but she recalled several little kind acts he had done her, especially a box of bon-bons he had given her one Christmas, which, (the pretty box, at least, mot the bon-bons!) lay upstairs in her drawer now. And she remembered how

jare sure no member of the British Associa- | tion now regrets the Transatlantic meeting; \indeed, those migrant members who have been piously trained must have often, during the innumerfble excursions and fetes, recurred to the hymnology of their youth to find fit expression for their senti- ments:—‘We have been there and still will go,’ &e.
‘In our epinion, then, the visit to Mon- treal is likely to prove asomewhat momen- tous event in the history of the British Association. But what about the other side! It is quite cvident that the Can- adians feel proud of and grateful for this distinguished visit; and they have reason to be. Perhaps nothing could convey more strongly to them the impression that they are a consistent part of the empire, on 4 perfect equality with their brothers who have stuck to the old homestead. Perhaps never before has this heen so distinctly re- cozn zed as in the placing of Montreal on a level with York and Manchester and Edin- burgh by so representative a body as the British Association. But more material | benefits are likely to accrue to the Dominion from the event. It has in some respects breught Canada, her people, institutions and resources, before the British public and the most enlightencd of the old world generally as they Lad never been before. The Canadians themsclves have spared no pains to make the most of the association's visit in this respect, and they are quite
right. Of Canada, as of our other colonial possessions, we hear little usually except from the material point of
view, their resources, their industries, their budgets, and their debts> In the present case, however, while these interests have not been kept in the background, the 800 visitors to Montreal and all who take au interest in their doings must have been struck with the wonderful intellectual pro- gress of our great American possession. More universiues than the mother country some of them richly endowed; scientific and other Jearned sccieties and institutions of all kinds; a wonderfully organized system of education; a geological survey doing admir- able work; scientific wortbies who can hold their own with the best, the Old World can produce—these aud many other good points in the Dominion will have been actually seen by hundreds whose good opinion 1s worth having. At the same time, surely, Canada will have been the better for the week's transactions. We are always re- quiring to be reminded of an ideal to live up to and aspire after; hence going to church does the ordinary money-making Epglishman good, like the character in ‘Silas Marner,” who didn't know how. So the Montreal] meeting will, it is hoped, have reminded the Canadians that nations, like men, do not live by bread alone, that the highest and most enduring glory of a country does not arise from its material riches. re Off for Alexandria.
The steamship Ocean King, with the Canadian contingent for the relief of Gen- eral Gordon, left Quebec on the 15th inst. None of the men were allowed on shore, and the general public were not permitted on board. A young woman who had fol- lowed her lover all the way from Manitoba, tried hard to induce the chief of the water police to put her on board with the Gover- nor General’s party, only to ray good-bye, but he could not, though he allowed her to send a farewell letter. The total strength of the voyageurs was 380 men, besides offi- cers. His Excellency, the Governor Gen- eral, ina a few remarks to the men, spoke of the dangers of the Nile, but said he did not think they were any more serious than our Canadian rapids. He then referred to General Gordon, and said he felt proud to see that Canada was so fully represented in such an expedition ss this, General Wol- ‘seley, who had previously been among our ‘boatmen, knew what stirling qualities they 'were possessed of, and it was partly ‘through this that they had so earnestly ‘been asked to accompany the expedition, ‘He paid a special t ribute to the Indians, and spoke at some length upon their ‘natural qualities. which fitted them so well for the present undertaking. As she steamed off all the men were on deck and dressed in their uniform.
