Her steps are noiseless; the htm soft material of her dress makes no rus tle; but If it did, the noise of the ele ments would drown It. Sht Is behind the chair; then she raises her right hand, armed with the short, thick stick, and strikes him a heavy blow upon the head. With a groan he falls from his chair, stunned. Quick as light ning she takes from her dress the two cords, each provided with a running noose; one she slips over his body and fastens his arms down to his sides, with the other she secures his legs; then she puts a gag In his' mouth. This done, she dashes some water out of a carafe, that stands upon the table, Into his face, raises his head, props it up by means of some big folio volumes from the shelves, takes i chair, and, sitting opposite to him, waits until she shall revive. At last his eyes open, nud fall upon the livid, vindictive face that fronts him. He does not recognize her; but there Is murder in her looks ! He shivers, and tries to rise, but he is helpless. "I am much changed since last we met, James Wylie, am I not?" she says, after gloating for some moments over the agony of his silent terror. At that voice he starts, and shudders more violently; he knows now that he is doomed. If ever a prayer is in his heart. It is there now. "This meeting Is an unexpected pleas ure. Is it not? You hugged yourself with the thought, doubtless, that you were rid of me! Do you remember the words 1 once spoke to you, in your office? I told you that if you played me false, I would hunt you down, if you fled ,o the further most extremity of the world, and kill you ! I have come to keep my word !" and she drew the long, glittering knife from her belt. "I could have killed vou from be hind, 'some minutes back, but I would not have you die ignorant of the hand that struck the blow, nor suddenly and untor tured. If I had you away from this place, I would kill you inch by inch. There is not a torture that the ingenuity of cruelty could invent, that I would not inflict upon you ; and even then, I could not pay you back all that you have made me suffer! You tricked me well, did you not? "I was thinking of poor Arthur Pen rhyddyn," she answered, thoughtfully. "How strange it is that no tidings have ever been received of him ! I wonder If he is still living?" "I fear not," answered her husband. "I am sometimes almost Inclined to believe that, driven to despair, the poor fellow luid violent hands upon himself." "Oh, do not say that, Edward ; It is too dreadful to think of." Just then a servant entered the room to announce that a gentleman desired to seo Mr. Stafford. "What name?" "He would not give it, sir. He told me "You will nerer seo that day, Mrs. Stafford," ho answered, brusquely. "I shall never marry again." When they wcro alone, ho asked Staf ford if he kuow what had become of her. Tho answer was that nothing had ovor been heard of her from tho tlmo of his departure. Ho did not speak for mora than an hour nftervvards, but lapsed Into gloomy silence. lie was somewhat reticent In regard to his adventures since his departure from England, briefly stating that, Immediately after his father's funeral ho, had starteu for Australia, where ho had mndo a living by bodily labor; that ho had gono to tho diggings, but had met with but moderate success. "I felt that hard work was the only way to restoro tho equilibrium of my brnln," ho said, "and so I did It with a will. Had It not been for that I should have died long ago." He remained nt tho Hall until after tho New Year. They found him much chang ed In mind as well as body. Thore was but little left of tho gentle, dreamy youth whom they had known, but in his placo was a stern nnd somewhat hard man. In clined to gloominess and taciturnity. But, ns time wore on, and they knew him bet ter, they discovered thnt this was only the outward crust, and thnt a kind, gentle heart still beat beneath. Towards the end of January ho put In his claim for Penrhyddyn, and, bis Iden tity being beyond nil doubt, It was nt once admitted. "I do not bellevo I could settle down to the monotony of nn English country gentleman's life, after tho bustlo of the Inst six years," he said; "besides, nmtdst the turmoil of London, ono can always shake off black thoughts when they come." One day, In the Strand, he met Je rome, who wna most cordially rejoiced to seo him. Fortune lind recently smtieu upon the gay artist; he had had several pictures hung upon the Academy walls, which had found liberal purchasers, and he was rising Into fame. In the course of conversation the name of Parsons wns mentioned, nnd Arthur learned that that gentleman, having been found out in n disgraceful betting trans action at the last Derby, had carried him Antnmntln Wniton Ilrnk.

If nt nny tlmo tho outer edge gets too high, stop be fore you got there, and go hack to tho center and commence ngnln. Bo suro to keep tho center highest, with n good slant to tho outside. "This way Is Just about tho snmo ns ono shock on top of tho othor, only more slnnt to tho bundles. "There Is no slip or slide. It Is fast and easy, and suro keeps tho stack dry.
