Ha then pulled himself together. called for hi bill, and having settled It went out Into the wretched night. Whan Tauline left ber husband at tha church door aha knew that ber acbem Ing bad been futile, and that aha could never again ahow ber face at Mailing' ford; but it was not that which caused her tha agony of mlud aba wa suffer ing. Kl.a bad lost Jack. The one pure, nn selfith cup of Joy she had longed to taste bad been anatched from her lips at tha moment of raising. She waa stunned with despair. She paced np and down tha platform at Charing Crone station, watching for Itahette and concoct inn Diana for ob taining what ready money aha could be fore the grand denouement csma. She knew ber jewels must ba worth at least fire thousand pounds, and, though some of them were heirlooms, and others bad been bought with money obtained by ber dishonesty, she would not acrupla to ap ply them to ber personal use. Then aha ould draw at once two thousand from her bankers. She would go and do this personally lest they might scruple to pay ao large a sum on a check. And so ahe laid ber uiUerable plana, refusing to listen for one moment to the prompting of ber better nature, which would even uow auggeat ber return to the husband wbosa only sin bad been bia poverty. CHATTER XXIII. Notwithstanding all Telling'a -efforts. tha story anon got into tha newspapers. and. It being tba dull season, waa aeixed upon with avidity by tha gossip purvey ors, it was 'dished and redished day after day, with numherlesa distor tions, etaggeratlone and additions. One society Journal had it that tha beautiful Miss M of M Tark, In Exhrldge- shire, bad attempted to poison her hus band, to whom ah had been secretly married only a month or two, in order to become tha wife of a celebrated R. A., with whom ahe had fallen deeply In love; while another declared that the husband presented himself at the altar with pis tola, and. dragging bis would-be succes sor outside tba aacred edifice. Insisted upon a duel there and then, and wound ed him dangerously in the shoulder, and that tha unfortunate man now lay iu a nioMt critical condition, while the hus band bad carried off his reluctant bride, a veritable prisoner, on board bia yacht, for a twelveinonth'a cruisa In tha Ta citic. At lat Telling, annoyed beyond meas ure at these absurd stories, decided to lay bar the truth. With the assintance of his lawyer, he drew np- a concise state ment of the real facts- giving bis own and Tatil. lie's name in full, but suppress ing Jack's. He carefully conveyed the Idea that Tauline believed biin to b dead, tl gave the circumstance to her (hanice of unme as sufficient to account for hla not having discovered ber exist ence sine hia return from Africa. This lie sent to two of the daily uewspapers, and. thus divested of all mystery, the story bst its charm, and no longer af forded any Interest Telling aent ona of these newspapera, w ith bis own letter specially distinguish ed, to Kthel by post, and the next morn ing he called In Buckingham street to msk matters clearer. Ethel's frank. candor once mor over came tli difficulties nf the situation; she stood at the top of the stairs with her hands outstretched and ber fac bright with friendly luterett. "I hav been longing to aee you," alia h-gan, warmly, as they entered 1 lie room; "we have both so much that Is wonder ful to tell each other!" Kha looked at him steadfastly aa he atood In the light from the window, and what she saw in bis face quickened her pul with a audden pity, but she would not give way to the impnl that urged her to console him. She went on, a lit tle hurriedly at first: "I ran aee that your plenint news Is In some way mixed up with painful thoughts; so, as mine is altogether pleas ant I ahall speak first. To begin papa ram horn last n'ght, and be has brought the mot wonderful news; it Is like a fairy tale! I don't suppose you know yet that your wif la my cosln?" Captain Teliing started at the words "I knew you would be greatly pleased. My fath er la not really Mr. Mallett bia true nam ia Sir Geoffrey Mailing, and he la your wife'a uncle. In some extraordinary way. which papa will cxrlaln, the whole of the Mallirgford property cornea to him In the event of Taurine's marrying under twenty-five without ber guardian's consent; ao, yoa aee, we are going to be very great people. I believe aay mother waa not so well born as papa, and the late baronet waa so angry when ha beard of the marriage that he disinherit ed papa, who at one changed his nam and worked hard to keep hia wife. I hop yoa are Dot angry with ua bees us w are going to take away your wife'a wealth. Of course that la only non sense! I know you a r not angry; I've heard yoa aay often how glad yoa would have been to share what yoa hav with her." Ethel paused. Telling did not apeak, and ah f t a little anxious. She had unintentionally atumbled upon tha sub ject; but ah knew It could aot be avoided between them, so ah screwed up her courage and went oa: "Tertiapa I ahould aot aay what I am golag to aay; but no real harm can com from atralghtforwardae. We bar been such good friend la the peat that w need not atay to pick aad rhooe ear word to each other, need we?

"Thank yoa for your kind defens of him," she responded, rising aa ber fath er entered th room. "I will remember to do aa you ay;" and aho turned gayly to th dior.

COTTON COMES FROM CUBA. Great Poaaibllitiea of the Island ia This UirevtioB. Th Cuban steamship Taloma, wbicu haa arrived from Cariienas and Matati mi, Cuba, brought four bale of cotton of seventy five pound each, says ti Nvw York Tost.

On the other hand, however, the boll weevil, the cotton pinnt's deadly foe.

An article In the Cuba Review and Bulletin suggested a remedy for this trouble.
