Fellete CHAPTAR IX. I One warm moonless August night Haugh- Abbey was full of guests. The straons floated ont through the open ^dn- blaze of light shone from behind drawn silken curtains and through of skillfully-arranged ferns and titop- plants. I he annual " breaking-up" ball waa going d merrily the light rbythiaiciul of danciig feet, the soft "swlsh-BwiBh" dnpery, ana the hum of many voicfea lond ont of the windows and wide-open n. The Earl of Redshire felt that en- ler week at the Abbey would be likely to his health, and so he waa bidding to the county, as he generally did, 1 dinner and a dance. e stately and rather dull dinner waa the Abbey ;^cIock had just rung out ^^^i and some thirty couples were awing- nand and round on the poliahed floor the large haU to the music of the "Sil- ' Verschoyle, the undisputed belle, of Jht, in a dress of some airy irhito •smug with silver thread, her only 'hofooloara trailing garland of roae^ « ud roses, beginning at her left sbeol- a few soft velvety bands, and ending F»« her right ankle in great heavy ovtr- jT^hlossoms, waa dancing with all the K^ fresh enjoyment of a achool-|^, IrS^ng that she was one-and-twen^* bat done aecretly and modeatly, and thoughtful regard for the recipiento fe^gs. But such rumors as these were confined to a very few, and had not so extwisive a cucn- lation as a racy pieoe of scandal command- ed.

But he had not miscalculated the effect of hia know- ledge of her paat, of the one bladE aecret in hOTlife which he, with the aasiatanse of the invaluable Jim, had obtuned. She was at his feet, no longer haughty, scornful, and resolute, bat a timid, crouching, abject creature. He need not fear his creditors now, or cringe to his relatives, or lie awake at night calculating his beta and "squaring" his book so as not to ride too much he need not avoid any of the fellows to whom he owed money tiie world would wear a chanfred aspect for him now that this nch woman's secret was his. Tbese reasons for rejoicing however were poor indeed' compared with the savage pleasure of making thU nroud beautiful woman whom he both loved and hated his slave, the tarembling areatore of his smile " How easily she is cowed I,' he thought, looking at her shrinking, bowed figure. ••What abject cowards women are, after all! I thought she had morepluo^. Now for the next move;" and he prepared to speak agafai, looking at her with an insoleid unile. ... t But Cyril Haughton was misteken for once in his life. Only for a few moments, whUe the first ahock of aatonishment, few-, and shame unnerved her, did she tremble and shrink before him; then she roused herself and faced this sudden awful danger. She sat upright, pushed the gUtteruig head- Stt" li^farthor back, so tiiattiie pearls Ld rare bluoAowers in her hair shmmered f aintiy in tiie lampli^^t, and, looking at aplit^t, uiminc him with eyes as ui^ching as a tiger's, â- â- Idâ€" ' " WeU, go on, air I am waiting.

WUpping is aomethmg asl- dom^ very Wdom resorted to with my httie ones. Great indeed must be the ofllBnce that merito such degradation. And yet if such punishment must be ad mini stered, why my small men and women know that mai^mm. will not shrink from the task. Al- though the children know that mamma suffers much more than does the offender, and I think eAoK ia the greatest puniahment oCallMtiMm. lean abt help gettii^ eat of patience with the women wiio leave all such un- pleasani duties to the father. It ia not fair to the children, the father, or themaelvea. Children ahonld he taught to lo«^ for- ward to papa'a home-coming aa one, if not the mott, pleaaant thing of the day. Not something to be looked forward to with dreadand fear, knowing that with papa'a coming oomea also the long deferred punuh- ment. It must be to say the least deddedly un- pleasant and disoouragii^ lor the father of a faniily of littie tmes, to come home at night after a hard and busy day, and be n«Bt with atrow of downcast, sallcy, or toar- fi^IaMs, and be to|d by mamina that John- nie was saucy; Daisy disobedient, or that Freddie played truant, intead of going to schooL Instead of a quiet pleasant evening of games, and chate with pi^a, there is a hastily eaten supper, the oulpnts arederf.t with as tiie parents think best, and the children sent to bed with bitter, wounded hearte, and ths parenta sit in gloomy silence bdow stairs. Papa cannot help thinking that Ma' children thfaik of him only with dread and perhapa dialike. And the mother ought to feel that her children look upon her as a tale-bearer, and spy. AU tiiis nught be avoided if punishmentj had been given when the offence took pUce. Let your children understand that mamma can be «rm as well as gentie. And that an act of disobedience will be punished by her, just as thoroughly, if not as readily, as for- giveaeMwillbe granted, when the repent- ant child asks for it. ... i. « 4. Never punish children without farst „\f ta certain that they Understand what toera^are being punished for. And after puMshing them talk it aU over with them, show them that you panish them not for revenge, but for their own good. And they will have much more respect for you than they would have were you to out of the unpleasant duty by " nitoU your father."

Hia journey ia the eleventh that haa been made aoroaa the dark continent fa theae Utitudea. Wiaa- mann ia the man who, after hia firat trip across Africa, brought home the most won- derfulatoriea that had been heard from any reputable traveUer. Many pei^le could hardly bdieve that the population waa ao dense aa he repreaented fa one reatai he had vuited sontii of the Congo, or that the natives were' so condderably advanced m agribnltiure and various arte and the m e t hoda of comfortable livinc. As soonaa pcaotio- able,agento of the Congo State were amt to this region on the upper Kassai and ito branehee where Wissmann had found theae great tribes. There are now two white stations fa this country, which hasalao been reached by one of Biahop Taytor'a miaston- ariea. AU thea^wMte men have teatiSed to the accuracy of Wiaamann'a report, and we now know that aome of the moat remark- able and prondaing nativeaof Africa Uve along tixese southern affluenta of the Congo. The special significance of Wisamann'a laat trip lies in thef act that Ida route waa dbectty across the country, south of the Congo, through a vast region that is stiU a white space on our maps. While Congo explorers fa the last five years have been very active and have achieved great resulte, their laboie have, fa the mafa, been confined to thenvers they have explored, and we know compara- tively littie of great stretehesof ooun^ lying between the Congo waterways. We need now such researches as those m which Wissmann has just been engaged to completo our knowledge of the Congo basin. There is reason to believe that Wissmann's recent labors have been unusuaUy fruitful and interesting. ... t\_ Some ways south of Wissmann's route Dr.^ Wolff found along the Sankuru and Lomami Rivers a densely peopled region, and some towns which he believed contained 15, 000 people. North of Wissmann's route Gren- feU pushed up the Bussera, the Tchoupa, the Lulami, and other rivers, all Unod with hundreds of towns and aUve with flMta of canoes darting hither and thither, and giv- fag the scene a far more animated aspect than is found fa many parte of the Congo itseU. It is among the fertile plains and ereat forests between the rogions whero Wolff and Orenfdl have labored that Wiss- mann entered last faU upon his new ex- plorations. It is believed that this great region, in dendty of population and in geographic^ intereat,is fuUy equal to the countries north and south ot it of which the explorers have given us entortaining glimpses. There is little doubt that Wissmann is bringing home a very fateresting story of travel, and that theUbon he haa just oompletod wiU do much to fiU up one of the blanks that stdl remafa on the map of Africa.
