George Goddard, starting for the seashore one day in July, felt so buoyant that*it he must go up im the air like a balloon. He flung- his belongings down into a seat, then walked through the cars, out om to the plafiorm, anywhers, everywhere, He was so happy he couldn't keep still. 'Then came the ery "all a- board!" He jumped on to the train and rolled out of the statiom, it seemed, on strewn Sowers. In 4 seat on the ite side of the - car sat a young lady reading a hook. 'She was well * dressed. Her hair shimmered in the suc that streamed in at the window beside her. She was an altogether attractive looking per- son. The girl seomed to be in her book, and was no chance to scrape an acquaintance. Had she been without reading matter he might have resorted to the old device of of- fering al magazine, a book or a pa per, but since she was already sup- plied to offer more would make the underlying motive too apparent. The girl seemed to be unaware that there was a young man in the "car who was eying her longingly. The Book she was reading must have been absorbing, for did not pause a mo- ment to look out of the window or else for that matter--not even in the direction of the admiring Goddard. His happiness excited in him a confidence that would have led him to use any excuse had he been able to invent one, but so long a# she kept her eyes glued to the pages be- fore her there was no opening. An hour passed, during which God- dard's eyes were as firmly fastened on the girl as her own eyes were fasten- od on the book, and.all this while the specal featuge to whith hie glance was directed were ber lips. There are certain hps that can only be described by one word--kissable-- and this girl's lips were of that kind. Surely it was dangerous for a young gler just escaped from a treadmill te git for a whole hour looking at a pair of kissable lips. , Goddard, worked upon by his gladuoess of heart, the beautiful morning, the at tractiveness of the girl and those two delicately curved lips, did that which the moment after it was done filled him with consternation. When the train dashed into. a tunnel he made a dash for her, threw his arms around her neck, there was a momen- tary struggle, and he had kissed her. If was all over within a quarter of a minute, and luckily so, for the tun- nel was a very short one: indeed, so short that no lamps had been lighted in the car. When the train shot out into daylight Goddard was looking out of the window with apparent un- eoncern, though his heart was beating like a kettledrum. It was some time before he dared look at the girl, but when he did she was reading her book. There was another woman who sat in the seat next back of her who wits fanning herself vigorously with an appearance of annoyance. Goddard wondered if he had made a mistake. Ho was not sure. This set: him to thinking. If he fad kissed the wrong person the kiss in the dark. hadt been just ax delicious as if he had kissed the right one. Singular, wasn't it? But Goddard was quite sure he had kissed the girl with the kissable lips. She sat two seats in advance of him and on the opposite side. In order to make sure of going the right dis tante he had put his haod on backs of the two seats m passing. No; he had kissed the right persom, but why did the woman in-she rear seat look so flustered, and why was the girl in front undisturbed? Jt was a mystery that he could not sglve. The ' conductor called 'Pebble Beach," and the train slowed up at the station at which Goddard was to stop. Collecting his hand baggage, he arose." The girl with the "kissable lips arose too. She left>the car: in advance of him and, giving her hand bag gage ahd checks to a cabman, entered another. When he was driven up to his hotel the girl was ascending the steps, Goddard felt uneasy, A friend of his mother's had given him a note of in- troduction to a. Miss Margdret Deane, who was at the hotel or ex: pected to be there soon after his ar rival. Suppose the young lady he had kissed be this Margaret Deans? And suppose she knew he had kissed her? He shuddered. Unless she were a wor man of rare good senso and discre- tion she could make it hot for him. Should she tell the story to his friends he might better take passage for Australia or some port where he would be lost to his former" existence. When he had-fancied that he might have kissed the wrong woman he had been much displeased and disappoint ed. Now he hoped he had: Going to his room, he changed his i Just A anywhere he bh e through the hall. She did not uotice him.

He made a ititious case in which a friend his had done the same thing and asked her had she been the girl 'kissed what she would have done. "A man | had pever seen and knew nothing about?' she asked: "Yes. "I don't know what 1 should have one openly; inwardly 1 should have despised the man who kissed me." He shuddered. Toward the end of his vacationfGod- dard recovered largely from his fright. Every day he felt more and more suse hat he had kissed the woman who had sat beh nd Miss Deane, and be sincerely hoped that that woman, hed gone to the other mde of the globe for a permanent residence. Had he kis- sod Miss Deane surely she would have given some intimation of the fact that she had passed ¢ the ex- perience of the person hé kh men tioned in the supposititious case.

EWING. 'There is no truer saying than "there is compensation in all things." Anex- ample of this ame under my observa- tion in the case of one of my subor- dinates in the army. It began during an engagement. lia the heat of the fight a stretcher was carried past me and I saw' the face of one of my lieutenants, Tom Ashley, pale and with closed eyes. He opened them and gave me the most melancholy look 1 ever received from auy one. A_blashat Sat lic a his * body, ving hi re.

We on after the to be put in the exact duplicate of one he had owned. This would not have been co terrifying had it not been that he had worn his horseshoe in his scar pn the day he came up from the city to the seashore. He had noticed soon after his arrival that he had lost it and, recalling the circumstances of Ashley, for, besides being the most ising subaltern in my battalion, 1 knew that he was engaged to be mar- ried to a very lovely girl. Besides be- ing lovely, had a fortune in her own right, and I knew that Ashley, who had sothing - but his pay, was looking forward to his marriage with hep as soon as the war was over and his journey, 'had . remembered that when going to the train on a strect car he had just been jostled in a crowd. He had assumed that at this moment he had been relieved of his pin. Now, seeing its exact countbr- part on Miss Deane, he was seized with one of those alarms that are the result of a guilty conscience. He joined the young lady. and rive- ted his eye on the pin looked familiar. A horseshoe is =u common form of scarfpin, but this was certainly very like the ome be had lost. "Rather a neat pin that of yours, he remarked. "Do you admire it?" "Yes." "Well, then, I suppose I'll have to give it to you. It's really a man's pn." She removed it. from her person and handed it to him. "Oh, really, I didn't mean to ark for it." "I don't Goddnrl's heart began to ter. "Found! May I ask where?"

"Why, to tell the truth, I didn't find it at all. I took it." Goddard's knees were. beginning give way beneath him. ¥Won't you tell me," he ed, "how you came by it?" "Yes.

That there is no rest for the wicked is being. illustrated just now in the movements of seversl base murderers. There was tlw man porter who killed orgy, and who eseaped to New York where he is now detained, awaiting' either extradition' or gonfinpment in a lunatic asylum; and there 1s now the case of one Dr. Crippen, who is accused of murdering and burying his wife, and who is somewhere in hiding, it is thought in the company of a female companion, who was his steno- grapher. Whether or no, the man is beiny hunted, disguising himself no doubt, and travelling from place to place under different aliasem--unless he is hiding as some think, in London. Wherever he may be, his self-torture must be fearful. Dickens has pictured the sufferings and terrors of murderers wm 'Our Mutual Friend" and "Marta Chuzzlewit." Crippen will inevitally be caubht, unless he commits =uierde, and when caught 'his trial will he speedy, as he will be tried wn England. and British-justwe is swift and faicly sure, His Cainlile - position f(owards mankind is another warning fo those who fondly think their errori@ill vot one day conquer them and t&it their sins will sot find them out.

While coming into town on the morn- fng of the 9th, Mrs. Thomas Dawson was surprised to ses a black bear and cub standing on the side of the road near the home of Alexander Payette, pn the eighth concession of Vespra.

In one short fight that lasted barely tem minutes he had been made a cripple and bis life was blighted. A few days later, being near the hoe- pital where Lieut. Ashley was lying, } went to see him. I found him, as 1 expected, in a mind.

Besides, she was the ldo] of her parents, who would not i rmit her to make any such sacrifice.

Two days were required for the mis {sive to reach its destination, and & re- sased Ply could not be received in less than two days more. Meanwhile I visited Ashley twice. He evidently felt easied since he had dispatched his letter, con sidering the matter of his engagement closed. On the fifth day after 1 had sent. his missive I went to the hospita and there found the reply. It wae Miss Barnes herself. The meeting had taken place--for the girl had. arrived several hours before and with it had passed that first shock at the coming together of two people who had suffered and must continue to suffer such ah overwhelm- ing misfortune: Miss Barnes had more nearly recovered from it than Ashley, though now and again I could see tiny wavelets of something like happiness passing over his face. Miss 'Barnes was busying herself to make him more comfortable. She had brought with ber certain articles for the purpose, os pecially underclothing, which he great. ly needed, and with the help of a sob dier nurse was putting it on him with no more compunction than if she had been his wife. Miss: Barnes remained with Ashley iintil he was sufficiently recovered (to travel, when she took him home with her. A few months later, the war be ing over, I followed. Ashley had giv em in to the girl whom he loved an who loved him, and they were = only waiting for me to be present at the wedding. Miss Barnes -had astonished every one by having her own way 'in the matter, having conquered her par ents as well as hér lover. The wedding was® not one of those joyous occasions where the young peo- ple start ott in a career that heaven seems to smile on. The witnesses felt a tinge of sadness, and the yroom was inexpressibly overcome. Only the bride seemed to be herself.
