So when, at last, I was abbi to tell her I what name I bore, I charged it, and called ? myself Mr. Julian Vane. She should, if she loved me, marry me, thinking she was marrving one in her own station of Hf e. Not that ? ber. station was aay thing to be ashamed: op. So far as I.could gamar, she wac ore ot the masy whose parents leave chelr children a slender provision, yet large ?nongh to live upon m respectability and comfort.

Bv and bye my companion stopped and oponed rhe door of a house with a latch key. He invited me to enter, an 1 showed rue in to. a roora on tue grouni floor. Once hi side his oT.-n house hi * manner changed. He was now aost and I was a guest. He apologized for the state of confusion which rained in the rc?ro. He had only re? turned to h s lodgings yesterday, and had not yee got things straight. The room, al thoagh -plainly furnished, showed that its tenant wa? a man of taste and culture. Books were scattered broadcast, here, there i and ever? where: Gm at swept a pib off the chair which tie effirei me. "You tmokeir* he said, producing a cigar case. "1 can give you some brandy and soda, too." He opened the cupboard and brought out i tbe bottles. I declined his proffer^ hospi- i tality, and awaited his communication. He ! stood with bis harli to the manie!-piece, and j mechanically fille i a pipe. He did not. j however, light it; and, although I looked \ as carelessly, as I could ?i another direction, ; I knew that he was attentively scanning j my i ace. This scrutiny became unbearable. ; "You have something to say to me, Mr. j Grantf" I remarked. I **Yes. 1 am only considering how to say j it I am something of a physiognomist, ; and have been studying your face for my guidance.1* I smiled scornfully, but said no mora He was welcome to look at me ali night if he chose to do sa Suddenly, in a sharp, ab? rupt way, he spoke .'Why are you passing under a false nameC he asked. CHAPTER IV. .* Oh, what a tangled web we weave, When first we practice to deceiver' The attack was so unexpected that I crimsoned, and for a moment waa speech? less. I knew that my true motive for tho : concealment was, in respect to Viola, if sn? : worthily conceived, at least free from evU. This thought strengthened me, and I wat able to face mv in torrogator. Butt, all the ! Rame, it was a great mortification to feel that in order to explain matters to this man I must as it wera, lay bare my mest sensi? tive feelings. **Yon Know my true namer I askel r "No, But I have seen you somewhere Vienna, Paris-I forget where. Tnen you ?were not called Vane." "My name is Julian Loraina1' "Julian Loraine," hexepeatsd, musingly. "1 have heard that name in the world, and j with little good attached to it But it could 1 aec hare referred to yourself, YjCff ftje too j -young. -But your reason for the decej ont Speak I" he said fiercely. ' ' I curbed my rising anger, and, as well i I could, told him why I bad wooed Viol under a false name. I think he believe me, but-1 saw scorn on his face as he li tened. "The act of * fool," be said. / "Mr. Loi aine, such romantic affairs should be left t poets and ^novelists. Viola Keith woul need neither riches nor poverty with th ! man she loved. ?3- tell you, if I were to-g to-morrow and maka known to. her you doubt of ber single-heartedness, .1 cooli shatter tbe whole fabric of y our iappina? Why should I not do sor . -"R would bethe act of a fiend,*' I said, ! He laughed, ' not pleasantly.. "Yes, i would. ? will not do it - twill even kee; your secret, and Jot jon carry out you ridiculous plan.' But I will also do this:;. will follow you on your wedding morning and see with "my own" eyes that you hav< married Miss' Keith in your right name uNoI" he said, seeing I was ready to sprinj from my seat in indignation, "Nb!*.I wil have no protest You have brought thi upon yourself. You have given ma th right to mistrust you." ? "Will you 'be.good "enough- to show mi the right by which you interfere at allf I said. '.Until her twenty-first birthday I an Mxss Keith's guardian.'7 "A very young one," I sneered. '-Yes; but older than you think. He mother died six years aga I was then 30: shs thought me old enough to be her child'i guardian, and I will see. the trust to the 'end," / . .* .* The meaning thrown into the last sen? tence did not escape me. Iii implied that he still viewed me with distrust My anger was thoroughly aroused. "Perhaps, Mr. Grant," 4 said, "there is a nearer and dearer right you wish to exer? cise over y our ward-one . which She her? self alone can bestow." He drew himself up to his full height .That sir,1'* he- said, calmly, "is ungen? erous I had boped that my love for Mi.-s Keith was a matter unknown to ail save myself I love her as it may be bayoud your power to love a woman I would lay down my life for ber .far more easily than' to-day I lay down my love. Yet I do -this, and to you, my rival, can say: Take her, and make her happy-make her happy.1" - The repetition of the last three words was hot-a wish ; it was a command, a threat Grant was still standing above me, and as Hooked at bim I saw that his face was pale, aid> on his forehead were drops o i moisture, it's appearance almost startled me; but I said nothing. I. rose and wished him good iiight; / Somehow, in spite of the di like with which the man had inspired me, there was about him a strength and dignity which ircpressed me more than I cared to own. He accompanied me to the door. When it closed, I paused for a moment to light oho of my own cigars. Then I crossed the road. As I did so, I glanced back. The gas was burning in the room which I had jost left; the blind was drawn up. I saw Grant enter, tiarow himself into the chair which I had left vacant stretch his arms out on. the .table, and lay his . head upon them, like one in agonies of ?grief. - He was bewailing the loss of the happiness which I had won.. I pitied him, but I bated him, it seemed to me that if this man set his heart upon a woman's love, sooner or later she must give i. to him. What would, ic be if now he : used all bis power to rob me of Viola? I knew that till the ring wai on her finger I should have no peace of mini. The next day, when I pai5 my visit to Viola, I was full of the fear that I should lind Eustace Grant at her side, par haps ex? ercising ail his'craft In spice of his as? sumption of frankness, I believed him to be crafty, to my disadvantage. It was a fear which had na foundation. Neither on that nor -on succeeding days did Grant in any way interrero wita my monopoly of Viola, CLce or twice I met him, apparently com? ing from the house. On these occasions he bowed gravely, but did not stop to speak. His visits tv ere evMen ly paid at suc!i times as did not clasn with mine. I raged in? wardly to think that he had a right to visit Viola at any time; bnt I was too proud to remonstrate. It was some comfort tome to hear Miss Rossiter occasionally remark that ' they saw little or nothing of Eustace now. Viola seldom mentioned his nam?. No doubt, with a woman1 ? qa "cine? s, she un? derstood that it was distasteful to me. Nevertheless, 1 knew that she held her guardian in the greatest esteem, and looked forward to the time when we should be friend*. Tab I swore should never come. Viola once my wife, the acquaintance be? tween her and this strong- willed, attractive maa should cease. ; As I sail, I am indeed a pitiful hero! : But if 1 saw nothing of Grant I heard from him. He wrote me. telling me he had been informed by Miss Keith that our mar? riage was to take place vevy shortly. Ho would be glad to know my i* eitioas "re-. spec'ing the settlement of her own small f ortune.. There was a peremptoriness about the wording of the letter which nettled me extremely: I wrote back that it was quite true we were to be married ia a few weeks' time, but that it was not my intention to settle my wife's mon3y upon her. Tha sum was too paltry to trouble about, as it would te qi:i.e lost sight of in the large post? nuptial settlement which I proposed mak? ing. Ii Mr. Grant ft?t any doubt as to my means he could make inquiries of ray solici? tor, who had my instructions to answer all his questions fully. lo this letter he did not reply; but I heard that he made the inquiries, as I sug? gested. No doubt, in Viola's interest, he was right in so doing; but I liked him none the more for the action. Yes; Viola, overcome by my impas? sioned prayers, had consented to an almost immediate marriage. There was, indeed, no rea on why we should" wait a day. She loved me, and was willing to trust her mtuce in my hauls. 1 loved har, and longed for the "moment which would make her mine forever. Moreover, I longed for the time to come when 1 might tell her all; confess the innocent bat foolish deception I had practiced, and beg her forgiveness not for mistrusting her, but her s.x in general I was sorely tempted to reveal the tru : state of affairs without further de? lay; but GrantV warning rose to my mind, and I determined that nntil the irrevocable words were spoken, I would keep my secret. "We were married in the quietest way possible. Viola, it seemed to mo, had no ? Losem friends-no relatives who would be j mortified unless they were asked to the j wedding. Tbe old spinster, who looked I very prim, and ready to apply her favorite i word, "indecorous," to the whole proceed- | inge; a brother, as prim as herself, and ona ? trusted friend of my own foi med the wed? ; ding guests. Eustace Grant had been 1 asked to accompany us, but Viola told ms that for some reason or another, he hid . excused hi"??Jfr At this she seemed greatly ? vexed. 1 I was also troubled by his refusai. It showed too pla n'y his feelings, both to* ward me and toward Vi-aa. But he was in the church; be was there ; even before I wa*. As I walked up tho j ai-b I cau-rht a glimpse of his strongby- j mirked profile. He was in a far-off pew, j and was almost tba only spectator of the ? arid -, .-. _only tp?e?t?r;- t??f"^:". j ceremony. left the church, man and * wife, Eas race Grant waited into the vestry, and, a3 he had expressed Jus intention of doing, saw with bis own eyes that I had married Viola m my tru?name. ' . We drove straight from the church to the railway station. When alone in the car? riage almost the first words my wife said were: ^Julian, Eustace was in church. Did you sea him?1 - . "Yea, :I saw him;* - . "Why did he not come and .wish me good bye? It was hot like bim. I must have offended him. I will write and: ask : Hm how." I hated the idea of Eustace Grant being, in such a moment as this, uppermost in my wife's;thoughts. "Never mini, dearest,7' I said ; -Svhat is Eustace Grant to nsf * "Oh, much, very much tb me, Julian! He was my mother's 'frleicd, he has bean my one friend ever since I cars; remember." . "I do not bice him, '' I said. "But .you wfil like him; you must Uki him. He is so good, so noble, so clever. Promise mej Julian, you'will like him for my sake;". Although I would not credit him with the two first qualifications-goodness and no? bility-I was willing tobelieva that Eustace Grant was clever-perhaps too clever. The disadvantage at which he had held me upon that night when I was for the time, in his eyes, an impos 1er, rankled in my mind. Bat to-day I could afford to be generous. I drew Viola close to mei '.Dearest," I said, *i wilt try and get rid of my prejudice. I will try and forgot that this man loved you, and would have made you his wife. I will try. to erase from wondering whv, -when he is so good, hobie and clever, you should have chosen me." Viola laidher soft cheek against mine. "Julian, my husband," she whispered, "are you not all that Eustace Grant is-and more. I love you."'' ' With her words all my doubt, all my fear of Eustace Grant fled-never, I hoped, to return. With Viola's arms round me, her kisses, on my lips, I could afford to pity my unsuccessful rival. When we were in? stalled in the compartment of tba train which was, by a venal arrangement of the guardia, reserved to ourselves, I fell to considering how I should best mike known to Viola mat the name by which she had hitherto known me was assumed. I was bsginninsr, or fancie! I was begin*, nmg, to know something of my wife's true nature; andi told myself that the task be? fore me. was not so . easy as I had one3 im? agine! it would be. Mr confession was hurried on by a question she herself asked me: %Julian, wbat hame was it you signed in the book at churchf ' I had hoped that in the agitation natural to a bride who stgns her maiden nama for the last time sba had not notice! my auto- ' graph. Bot she must . have. done so, al* though she had said nothing about it until now. So I made the plunge and told ber all. Told ber my time name; told her of the beautiful house in the west which would be ours: told her of the life, free from care and anxiety as to the future, which stretched before us. Then I besought her forgiveness for keeping her m ignorance of these things. I had, be it said, given her to understand that I ( w?s a man with an income . just enough to live upon in comfort. * ^ Grant was right. He knew Viola. when he told m 3 that, by revealing my deception, he might destroy the fabric of my happi? ness. She said little, but her look told ma she was hurt and wounded. I verily be? lieve her first thoughts were -that she would rather I had been what I represented myself to ba, than to haye the power of sharing such a horne and so much wealth with her. How little man anders tau d women! Perhaps because no two women are alike. . But Viola forgave me. A woman always forgives iba man she loves, but I knaw that she was sad at the thought that I coull have dreamed that riches might have influ? enced her. Nevertheless it was days before I could get her to join me unrest raino Hy in the schemes which I wove of our future life. We went down to a qa 'et -watering place on the south coast. Here we staid for a fortnight Oh, those, sweet summer daysl Shall I ever forget them? For the time there seemed no cloud which could possibly shade our joy. All the cynical, suspicious, misanthropical elements seemed swept cut of my nature. I told myself that the con? stant society of the wife I loved was mak? ing a better as well as a happier man of me. At the end cf out stay by the sea it was our intention to return to London for a couple of days, and then start for Switser land. Here, or in what country we chose, we were to spend months. In is ct, I had as yet no berna to offer my wife. The tenant of Herstal Abbey would not turn out with? out six months'notice; so, for the time, we must be wanderers. . Eustace Grant-I bad by now almost for? gotten him-wrote once to my wife. She seemed overjoyed as she saw bis hand? writing,' but: vexed at the ceremonious way in which his letter began. It lies before me now. I copy it: . ' .

"EUSTACE G?ANT," "He might have sent a word of congrat? ulation, " said Viola, in a vexed tot e. "How shall I answer this. Julian?'' "Say we will meet him at Mr. Monk's at 12 o'clock on Tuesday." To which effect Viola wrote. I did no/ read the letter, but I wondered at thv length of it fTO BE CONTINU ED.] The Objects of Bathing. [Saturday Review.] The object of bathing is fourfold: To pro? duce a certain amount of nervous shock, that should be followed by reaction and an in? creased circulation of the blood cn the sur? face, resulting in a more rapid chango of tissues; to lower the temperature of the body; to cleanse the skin; and to produce pleasurable feelings, and, in connection with swimming, the beneficial effects of one of tba best forms of physical exercise. The nervous shock and the reaction from it, following the first contact with the water, are important points, and to obtain them che plunge or tbe douche is preferable ta any other form of bath. To wade up to the middle and stand shivering and fearful of tho momentary teeling of discomfort is neither healthy nor j pleasant, and timid persons who dare not j plunge boldly into tho water should be cen- ! teat with the douche bath. A larga garden ? hose, with a high pressure of water, hald at a distance of fifteen or twenty feet from the body, will give an idea of this moat delight? ful curative and bracing age Jt. Sea ! bathing differs from c*:t-dcor iresh-water bathing in the greater specific gravity of sea-water and its consequent greater buoyancy and more uniform temperature, whi.e the pure air, sunshine, and better sanitary surroundings of seaside places con? tribute largely to the resalta. MineraJ bc tha, as such, lave no particaiar superiority over other baths of the same density and ;ea-per ature. In addition to the greater healthi? ness and enjoyableness of outdoor bathing, it is probable that the simple exposure of the body to the sun and fresh air ? of real boned t, and con: rib mes to the sum total of the good results. Cramps are considered one of the great dangers of bathing, but when they are fatal it is probably tbe result of syncope or minting, from failure of ih9 he.-rt's action. A gc ai swimmer, in vigor? ous health, would hardly be wholly disabled by a cramp of onlv a part of his limbs. Botcher*' Meat and Headaches. {Popular Science Mouthly.l The prescription of a diet largsly vege? tarian has long been known to be good tor persons subject to attacks of headache Alexander Haig relates; ia The Practi? tioner,' a case that came under his treatment which indicates to him ?oat thia. disease and its attendant phenomena are largely; tue re? sult of . a pooau circulating in tue Mood, which poiso^.ISA productrcH the digestion of certain ?oods, especially butchers' meat, and-that a care is best effected by cut? ting off entirely: : ,the \ noxious f cod . and aiding tiie elimination of the poison by the kidneys. The patient was a chronic sufferer from bea lache, and the amie tiona that usually accompany it. Ha was a -hard student, 'ana was most troubled in winter. On the adoption of a. strict vegetarian diet the attacks, which had boen severe,.ceased at once, and for six months of the cold half of the year there were only one or two slight ones,, although they bad bern recurring weekly.' A less strict diet was subsequently allowed, and gave practical immauit/, pro ; vided butchers' meat WAS-avoided. It wag. also found that two or three tumblers of hot water taken every night at bedtime gave in ! creased immunity ana enabled the patient to take even a little butchers' meat occasionally without lear of an attack. The disease was j evidently caused by impure blood, and that j by imperf ecii*.n in the digestive process. Tba. ! connection with butchers' meat was indi I cared directly by the facts In the case. The First Jewish Peor.,, ' {New York Trflr?ac] ' ' The elevation of Sir "Nathaniel de Roths I child to the British peerage zs in many re j spects significant. Jdr. Gladstone has the i credit of creating the first Jewish peer; for j though Lord -Beacon >?oId was a Jew * by ' race, he was not a professor of tba Heb 1 rew faith, and, in fact, bas done what was possible to effa?a his connection with bis own people. Bat the Roths? childs represent Hebraism all over the world, and - their family i a* for many years been doing th? actual fighiiag .against the ? venerable prejudice; which lor so pian,' cen? turies refused tothe Jews throughout Europe j either social or political positions. Even m j this age of toleration it has takeu more than ! a generation to conquer inherited antipa I thies; . but it. is instructive ; to observe ! that, in England' the house of lords \ ha i always been behind the commons in [ this as in so many other poinx Thus I when in 1849 Baron Lionel de Rothschild was returned to the house from Len ion, and being refused his seat the Jews1 oaths of ab? juration bill was introduced to remove bis' disabilities, tbe bill passed the hon e. but was rejected by the lords, and m 1855 and I 1859 .the samo measures repeatedly passed I tba house, only to be as steadily thrownput I by the upper chamber. But it was not until 1871, after the aboli tion of tests, that a. Jew was made master of ; ats at Oxford; and evan when Disraeli .waa premier of England and in the zenith of Ms reputation there is reason to believe that'be declined a peerage in favor of his wife, not ' because he did not desire the honor, but be? cause h. -eared the poli deal effect of his ele? vation. At a later period he accepte! the distinction, though there was much grum? bling among the Conservative peers, hat ba was not regarded as a. thorough Jew. The elevation rf Sir Nathaniel ds Roths? child, therefore; marks a decided advance!. It must be concluded'that the old prejudices have nearly, disappeared. For though the special distinction of the Rothschilds is their financial position, and though this has often enabled them to control thc course of power? ful governments and to command -at least the outward show of homage and respect from the haughtiest aristocracy, their da? daism has always been strongly uiarnod,*and they have never made .any concessions in that particular. amid .Staaa 9weuw?lM**m [Chicago Herald "Kam?

' Anderson Intelligencer. ?j* I . The election in.J? ul toa County, Ga., which includes the City c f Atlanta, opon the question of prohibition on Wednes-1 day. the 25th of November, was the most exciting, and taken eil together, the most, remarkable contest that' has ever been witnessed in. tais country* The friends of prohibition watched tbe, battle with intense interest,1 but gener? ally with little hope of victory, though the prohibition managers in: Atlanta never wavered one moment in the firm conviction that they , would win, and to the delight of the friends of this great moral reform nit over the-country, when the figures were summed up it was de? clared that Fulton County had gone 'dry' by t majority.of 216 votes. The. number of votes cast exceeded? .we be? lieve, 9,000, so that the majority; isl small but safe. This prohibition tri? umph shows the great force- of a moral reform when it is once, understood by the people. The re vea ne cry, which keeps so many towns and cities wet, .was urged for all it was worth in Atlanta, but the higher sentiment and the claims of duty prevailed. The result on tbis? ques lion will be the same in many other sections of the South before another five years rolls past. . -, -- r Moral Training. Williamsburg Herald. ; 1 Judge Aldrich in. hts^Charge to the Grand Jury, at the last" Court, as we have already mentioned, said that there should be a reformatory school for young convicts. That instead of com? ing out of the Penitentiary with a good lesson taught, they come out hardened criminals, and are. received with open arms by their race and only looked up? on as being martyrs. So far as they being hardened criminals the judge is right, but so far as having a reformatory school or a place to improve their, morals is concerned, the judge is wide of the mark. The best and only training bf the morals of hog, chicken, cotton and other thieves, is the whipping post. A solid round of 75 on the bare back with a good cowhide would haye more effect opon those immoral propensities than ten reformatory schools in each county. Just to think that tbe whore week -ot court was taken up, we might say, wttb just such cases at an expense to the tax? payers, who are the property holders, of not less than ?150 to$2G? a day, wheo the whole could have been dispensed with io less than a day at the post, and would be more lasting and effective. This matter should become a serious thought wiih our Legislature. Last October a colored Class Leader j or 'xortcr* as they :are called, was con? victed of stealing cotton from Sheriff Brock in g ion. He got back just in time to see bis colleague, Rev. Harry Brown, convicted ^r complicity in thc sanie offence sentenced to two years.
