He was aware his name had been coupled with Daisy’s in the journals which had described her tragic death. He knew Rex had fallen madly, des- perately in love with little Daisy Brooks. but he did not dream he had made her his wife. “You have not given me time to explain why I am re.” “Mrs. Lyon requested it," she re- plied. quietly. “Rex simply obeyed her wishes.” “Perhaps she looked upon you as her future daughter-in-law,” snecred Lester, covertly. “I have followed you to Florida to prevent it; I would follow you to the ends of the earth to prevent it!

The wind bent the reeds, and the waves of the Sea dashed up on the distant beach with a long. low wash. He was wondering how far she was to be trusted. "You may have perfect confidence in me, Lester,” she Said; “my word ought to be sufficient," as if quite divining his thoughts. "You need have no fear; I will be true to you." "1 shall remain away until this af- fair has blown over,” he replied. “I can live as well in one part of the country as another, thanks to the in- income my father left me." He laid great stress on the last sentence; he wanted to impress her with the fact that he had. plenty of money. “She must never know,” he tell himself, “that he had. so riotously s'quander- ed the vast inheritance that had been left him, and he was standing on the Verge of ruin.” A marriage with the wealthy heiress would save him at the eleventh hour. “I will trust you, Pluma,” he continued. “I know you will keep your vow.” The false ring of apparent candor did not deceive her; she knew it would be a case of diamond cut diamond. "That is spoken like your own gen- erous self, Lester," she said, softly. claspl'ng his hands in her own white, jeweled ones. “You pained me by yonr distrust.” A- _._L v-u w'vvâ€" He saw she was anxious to get away from him, and he hit his lip with vexation; her pretty, coaxing manner did not deceive him one whit, yet he clasped his arms in a very- lover-like fashion around her as he ropiied: "Forget that it eyer existed. my darling. Where there is such ardent. passionate love, there is always more or less jealously 4nd fear. Do you realize I am making an alien of. my- self for your sweet Sake? I could never refuse you a request.

She talked to him so gracefully, so tenderly, at times, he was almost tempted to believe she actually cared for him more than she would admit. Still he allowed it would do no harm to keep a strict watch of her move- ments. . “Good-bye. Pluma. dearest." he said, "I shall keep you constantly ad- vised of my whereabouts. As soon as matters can be arranged satisfactor- ily, I am coming back to claim you." Another moment and she was alone. walking slowly back to the house, a very torrent of anger in her proud, defiant heart. Slowly the long hours of the night dragged themselves by, yet Daisy did not return to Glengrove. The hours lengthened into days, and days into weeks, still there was no trace of her to be found.

Poor little Daisy! what was the secret sorrow that was seeding her on to madness! Would she ever know! Where was she now? Ah. who could tell? A curious change seemed to come over romping, mischievous. merry Eve; she had grown silent and thoughtful. ' “I could never believe any one in this world. was true or pure again it I thought for one moment deceit lay brooding in a face so fair as little Daisy Brooke's.” CHAPTER XXVII.

He tried to summon UP courage to tell her the story at his marriage, that his hopes. his heart, and his love all lay in the grave 01 his young wife. Poor Rex, he could not lay bare that sweet, sad Secret; he could not have borne her questions. her wonder, her remarks, and have lived; his dead love was far too sacred for that; he could not take the treas- ured love-stm'y from his heart and hold it up to public gaze. It would have been easier for him to tear the living, beating heart from his breast than to do this. He had walked into the parlor that morning, where he knew he should find Plums. She was standing be- fore the fire. Although it was early spring the mornings were chilly, and a cheerful fire burned in the grate, throwing a bright, glowing radiance over the room and. over the exquisite morning toilet of white cashmere. with its white lace frills, relieved here and there with coquettish dashes of scarlet blossoms, whichluma wore, setting off her graceful figure to such queenly advantage. 1 Rex 'looked. at her, at the imperxous beauty any man might haye been proud to win, secretly hopmg She would refuse him. me. 1 :vas {vatching you walking up and down under the trees. and you looked so lonely I hall made up my mind: to join you.” "Ggoc'l-mornmg, Rex." she said, holding out her white hands to him.

Ilu Been In Cinch-Ml {or Nearly Tea "earsâ€"Sluched by Sailors at Side 0! has a relic he treasures very jealous- 1y. and one that he exhibits only to the chosen few of his acquaintance. It is the personal flag of Lord Horatio Nelsonâ€"the flag that designated his rank as a Vice Admiral in the Eng- lish navy and announced his presence on board the “Victory,” his flagship in the memorable battle of Trafalgar October 21, 1805, This was, Nelson’s last as well as his greatest sea fight, for he was mortally wounded early in the action, and died before the completion of the victory which has made his name fam- ous. His remains were taken back to England, and it was this flag that covered the leaden casket in which they reposed. Dying thus in the mo- ment of a victory that was so mo- mentous,Nelson, of course. was mourn- ed as the English had never before mourned the death of a war hero. and his funeral was one of the most pre- tentious London ever witnessed. At St. Paul's Cathedral where the "Hero of the Nile and of Trafalgar” was buried. this flag again came in- to prominence, being the cause, dur- ing the solemn obsequies, of a rude. break that one would hesitate to be- lieve occurred were it: not recorded by eyewitness? and mentioned by several reliable biographers of the great naval commander. When the funeral procession reached the church the remains of Lord Nelswn were borne from the car to the grave by 12 stalwart men from the “Victory.” The casket was, of course. covered by the flag, which was removed during the final ceremonies. SAILORS SEIZED IT. When these were concluded the flag as has long been the cuswm. was about to be lowered into the grave and interred with the only man who had a right to float it, but at the last moment the gruff sailol'l who lin last moment the gruff sailors who had fought under the Admiral’s eye, and who mourned his death as sin- cerely as any of the illustrious per- sonages present,_ seemingly with one accord seized and tore the flag, each struggling for a fragment as a re- membrance of their leader. In the confusion it was thought to have been torn into pieces, but such was not the case, [or most of it is still intact and in a good state of preservation. It was saved from destruction by John Clyne, the sailing master of the Vic- tory, who was then in charge of the men. Before the work of demolition had gone far he got possession of it and concealed it under his waistcoat, where, rough and ready jack tar that he was, he was able to protect it. This action of the sailors at Nel- son’s tomb seems not to have been censured or rebuked in any way, but rather regarded as a heart-felt, if too forcible, expression of their love for their fallen chief. At all events they were allowed to retain their tokens. and several fragments are still in existence in different parts of the world. unuâ€" John Clyne kept his part until his death, leaving it to his widow, Mar- garet, who in turn cherished the memorial until she died. It then be. came the property of their son, who brought it with him. to America about 10 years ago. From him it passed in- - ‘f I‘ _,A vvvâ€"w to the possession of Mr. Davidson, who, as stated above, guards it very jealously, keeping it locked in asafc with his watches and jewels. ONE SOLID PIECE. The flag is, or rather originally was four feet wide and eight feet long and is one solid piece of cloth made of sea island cotton, interwoven with silk. This is unusual. for most flags are made of different pieces of di- ferent color, it being easier to con- nect the pieces than to color different lines. The main ground is white and the coloring still clear and bright was evidently put in by a process then used in the manufacture of war flags, that of protecting all but the parts to be tinted between wooden blocks tightly screwed together while the flag was immersed in the dye. It is precisely alike and equally bright on both sides showing that it could have been colored by no ordinary pro- cess of printing. _ A strip four inches wide is gone from the rope end. This was evident- ly cut by the sailor who first seized the flag. The threads end abruptly and the markings, though not ab- solutely straight, are clean as though done with a knife. Sixteen inches are missing from the other end which is stringy and certainly bears evidence of having been torn. It was this strip, 16 by 48 inches, that was torn into tragments by the men. Of these at least one is in the United States. It is in the possession of Mr. W. J. Carter, of Ft: Worth. Texas. "0 U. W-IIIUI, v.

The same gentleman also has a copy of the London Times of November 7, 1805. giving Admiral Collingwood’s of- ficial report of the Battle of Trafal- gar. It is a small. tour-page paper. yellow with age and almost in pieces from handling. In general“ make-up" it looks very much like the paper of to-day, the first ‘page bears the title, date line and price mark. but the rest of it is filled with compact ad- Gertisements, as is also the fourth and ‘aSt Page. The second page is the edi- torial, while the report covers all of the third. There are no large head- lines and little or no general news. though the importance of the main event of the day doubtless accounts for this. The document itself, signed by Ad- miral Collingwood, who succeeded Nelson in command, has been publish- ed at length in several biographies ot Nelson and in much too long to be quoted here. The editorial page, how- ever, is interesting. It says:_ “ The official account of the late naval action, which terminated in the most decisive victory that has ever been achieved by English skill and gallantry will be found in our paper of to-day. That the triumph. 8'91" and glorious as it is, has been dearly bought. and that such was the gen- eral opinion, was powerfully evinced in the deep and universal affliction with which the news 'of Lord Nelson's death was received. The victory cre- ates none of those enthusiastic emo- tions in the public mind which the success of our naval arms have in every former instance produced. There was not a man who did not think that the life of the Hero of the Nile was too great a price to pay for the cap- ture and destruction of 20 sail of French and Spanish men-ofâ€"war. No ebullitiuns 'f pcpular transport, no demonstrations of public joy marked the great and important event. The honest and manly feeling of the peo- ple appeared as it simuld have. . . . they felt a moral satisfaction at the triumph of their favorite arms; they mourned with all the sincerity and poignancy of domestic grief their hero slain.” They Eat Then-aka. From various causes. such as anger and fear. many animals eat their own flesh. Rats. when caught in a trap by the. leg. will gnaw off the captured member. and mice in captivity have been known to bite off their tails. But there are some creatures which go much further and actually eat parts of themselves if left for too long a period without food. A hyena belonging to a menagerle was kept by the proprietor without food In order to tame it. One morning he was horrified to find that the fero- cious creature had actually eaten part of its own log. An angle in the 200 a few years ago was noted for the fact that it would now and then pick pieces of flesh out of its own logs and cut them. Certain caterpillars and toads devout their cast off skin. This may be due to fear, but it looks like economy. There is just a trace of this charac- teristic in human beings. Children when in rage sometimes bite their own hands and arms, although it must he admitted that they desist when it he- gins to hurt. One Way of Getting Even. “There ls a fellow lu our ofllee who ls a chronic borrower," said a young man employed in a large Market street or tahllshment recently. “He got Into nearly everybody tn the place before we all made up our mlnds to stop lend- lng.
