senator’s handsome soft to the villa, hut h»* had never yet accepted an invitation.When she saw him enter the ball-room with Captain Lansing sh9 was delighted.She received him with the greatest empressment, and he could not hi l,> feeling just a litUe tlattered lie pushed on, the captain by his side.“1 should imagine, by the disconsolate expresMon of your face, you do not see your charming inamorata,” said Rutledge.“No, she i® not h«*re,” returned th*‘ captain, adding: “l shall take but Utile interest in the ball until she does make her appearance.” Lovely girls passed them by, smiling their sweetest and challenging them with their bright, roguish eyes; hut the captain looked anxiously past them all toward the door.At length his face brightened up."JSh»» is here,” he said, with a tlftill of delight.“Come Rutledge, and 1 will present you to the queen of the ball.” And both of the young men cn^ssed the room together.“She is always surrounded by a throng of admirers,’* said the captain, impatiently.“We shall be obliged to await our turn.1 shaJI not be able to claim one waltz,” he said, nothing how quickly her tablet was being tilled.“Courage,” laughed Rutledge.“A faint h«irt never wins fair lady;*1 but he would not have said that a few hours later.“1 shall press forward and try my fate,” replied the captain, eagerly.“I shall ask her for one wait* with the hope she may give me two.” “1 hope she w ill,” returned Rutledge, smiling at his friend® eurnostness.lint one hour afterward he would not have ex|>ress«*d that hois*.From his positinu he couhJ not see tho young

asked, turning to tlie is toun.hed captain, when the gns^tiug wi* over."TYie young wife wh«»m h * 1 • t V’»*ili«‘ ha»J told herself long situ e ‘hat she h'd fnted togrthor to the dreamy ruoumires th1*

fchdton.for his bride, all th»* light aim brghtness of this world would be over for him.Hr had often persuaded himself iut«^ the belief th it it had lieen simply admiration that had tilled his heart in that never-to-be forgotten past for weot.gulden haired Verlie; and that the ! >''»* of his li e liad he»*n giv**n tf the beautiful p.-ust.Now it eame to him with a smlden sho« k that, »*veu as the branch may blossom twic»*, s« love may bloom again*—an oasis in a desert life; a heart may yield for a s«»coud time to the magic witchery of love’s sweet dream.That night, late as it was after the bail, Verlie found time to writ»* i f.'v lines horn»*.The chasing wor«ls t: the hastily written letter Wore these: “This bail was the most enjoyable »>l all, mother, dear.There was a longing in my

trifle graver an»l sadder, per haps.” When Nella Sefton read those word* she knew why Verlie ha»l enjoyed là» Uiil so much.From tin* night of the ball be» aine a daily visitor ui the villa, much to the akirm of Lansing, and the re«t of the V «Mile s admirers.A su«i«h*a »XK»iiu.*s3 sprang u;» betweei Uuticd^e and the captain.When one called, he was pretty certain to find the « ther there.There was something more than brotherly devotion in all tlii» the captain told himself, angrily, and hi* even went so far as to boldly hint tc Rutledge: “It was a wonder he had not selected Verlie in tin* first place, instead of hei durkoyed sister, Uldene.” Rutledge was strongly tempt«nî to tel him that ho had done ©o; but »>ut of re spool to poor Uldene he would not reveal h«>w his marriage to her had come about.“If I were a suitor for her hand, and the young lady herself docs not object 1 do not .s»** why any one else should,” Ruthxlgo had retorted, hotly.From that hour these two, who hid been lifelong friends, became bitter rivals \*nemjes.“I promise you I «hall use every means in my power to prevent you froi* winning her,” retorted th»* captain “You take advantage of your positon in the family to influence her again>t me, but it will avail you little.I ''hail wmi her in spite of you, If I may Ik nin»w»*d the tise of the term.” “It lias been said that 4aJI is fair in add w’»r,’” said

As it has been pointed out very often in the Examiner, the country around Richmond is most eminently suited for butter making on a large scale.Good judges from Europe, including Mr Thomas Cleevc, of Limerick (whose ex perience is very large) have claimed that the Eastern Townships in general and Richmond County in particular are infer ior to no district in the world m this respect.The Examine»; certainly wishes the new enterprise every success and the heartiest support.Richmond town will probably never rival Sherbrooke in general manu facturing, but a successful and profitable large creamery there cannot fail to be factor in prosperity for the country sur rounding Richmond and in that way benefit oar neighbor also.Ksi# or FOR SALE.A KAHN CATHEDRAL ORGAN, in tfood condition, coh* line stool.W*I4 |170 To be sold for $SO.Extra Appl} MANSE.Gould I\ Q.New Milch t’ows Fop Sale.Apply to J.P.Atkinson, Suffield, Que/ tf-31 Dairy Farm For Sale.1 AA ACHES of land.*ituatod 24 miles from IUU Bulwer
