CHAPTER VIII.
Till: REl'RKT OP TUB IIMATfl:r.
When Polly Hamilton reached her
homo ufter the opera ou the night that
was to be memorable in her life she
felt that nbo was a very happy girl.
No words of love, nothing that could
have been called a declaration ou tho
one band or nu acceptance on the
other, bad passed between ber and
C'lareuco Stanley, but she knew that
she loved hiiu, aud slio felt that she
need never again doubt bis love for her.
The only thought that troubled her
was that "Itita! Dear, darling iJita!"
would not be equally happy iu thi.
Luowledge.
"And, oh, I do bopo that I didn't
seeui cross and heartless towards her.
I must sco ber for a minute before I
tan sleep to-uigbt, aud she must know
;hat I lovo ber now aud always tho
lamo as ever," she thought, as she
hurried toward ber own room, pausing
i moment at tho door leading itit i
that of Dolores.
"Como in," said an eager voice,
wheu sbo tapped ou the door; aud en
tering, she was met by Dolores, who
ramo toward her with outstretched
anus.
"Thanks, Marnja, for coming in to
say 'Good night. I couldn't have
slept if you hadn't. I bavo been bo
vexed to think I might have wounded
you."
"Vou conldn't have woauded me 0:1
purpose, Rita. And do you think I
would have ullowed myself to foci hurt
soong as 1 knew that? E-esides, it
is all a mistake a mere, unreasonable
fancy on your part, dear. Clarence is
all that is linn and noble; and when
yon know hint better, I am euro you
will think so, too."
"I'm sure I bopo so, Marnja; ami T
bavo been taking myself to task all
:he eveuing for allowing myself to
iccm harsh and unjust toward any
mo whom you care for. Siuce you
ovebim, be must be good and worthy.
Tail could not throw your heart'u best
ovo away on a bad niau."
"Oh, us to that, Rita, I liavo n-
iidgment about men; always rotnem
ler that, my dear; but this isn't a mat
ter of judgment. I lovo Clarence ami
ie loves mc; and, as yuit say, thai is
voof enough that he is worthy. And
ie is so interested in you, Rita; wo
i.lked about you all the evening. His
pother's father was directly descended

Dolores hrnk iustinctively from
his propositioo, onrt ehe auswered
:oldly:
"I hardly think I can do fiat. Tbo
lory is a singular one, and the auci
or whose exploits it celebrates i. .is
ly no menus person to be proud of.
r don't mind talk in r.vrr my family
ufT.iir.i with you, Marnja; but with a
stranger! You must see hov,- iiilVervut
that would be."
"Uut if ho isn't astrnni r at least,

' among these KugU-ni Mendozas, too,
I ami I am getting wildly exeiied abont
this story. Now, when will you let
ua bavo tho reading of it, Lorita?"
"Soon," said Dolores, with n play
ful nir of lnyster, "but not quite
! yet."
i "And you will let. Ciareuca bu pivs
; ent, to please mc?"
i "f would do a great ileal to pleaso
: you, Maruja," answered Dolores, with
j "the indulgeut manner of an elder sis
I tor a luiiuncr that bad already bc
j como very dear to Polly Hamilton
i "nnd I suppose I shall do this."
J "Oh, you sweet thing!" exclaimed
I the happy girl, with the effusiveness
of her sex and age. "Aud now good
night. Xot for t4io world would I be
the oause of dark rings about those
lovely eyes of yours to-morrow good
night and happy dreams to you, my
. Kita!"
; Dolores sighed deeply as tho door
closed after Polly, and she murmured
i sadly.
"And vet. something ttlls mo she
J will never never bo happy with that
man, even if he loves ber. and I don't
think that he does. 1 wish from my
' heart that sho had never seen bis false
; and cruel face!''
It was now after midnight, and a
: brilliant sky, starred with myriad
points of diamond light, was visible
I through the window from which the
f hado had beeu accidentally pushed
aside. Dolores, with a quick impulse
to breathe in the beauty of tbo mid
night hour, turned out the artificial
glare of the gas, drew up tho window
shade, and stood gazing out at tho
sky. The silvery radiance of the stars
mii'gled with the inooiilike light of tho
electric- lamps, aud toiubed with
beauty all the couimonplaca nud often
repulsive objects that spoil the view
by day-light; but though sho was
vaguely conscious of this, Dolores v. as
looking straight into the stats over
bead, und thu calmness and restful
jiy which that spectacle bad always
brought to lu r now stole gently into
ber troubled mind. The soul seemed
to lloat uway through the depths of
spae; visions of celestial repose and
loveliness stretched out before bcr
inward sight; tho rhythm and har
mouy ol the spheres, circling forever
in their millions of orbits, seemed like
unkuown but heavenly music wafted
to gome'secret sense of hearing deep
within her inmost being. And then,
as it had been always from her tar
licst childhood, she was suddenly
conscious of a Presence nothing
tangible and nothing in the least de
gree terrifying. It was an atmosphere
of Hoaiethiut exquisitely pure and
spiritual, U. " tremulous, pulsating
breath of a guardian angel. A feeling
of great content and happiness took
possession of her; and gently draw
iug down tho shade, she turned away
from the window and began her prep
aratious for bed, and her ono thought
was :
"Everything will ho well nnd an it
hhould ha if we will but wait and bo
patient. Ah, if I could only remem
ber that, but 1 am fo prone to doubt
and to fear and to anticipate the
worst. Perhaps thcmitiy disappoint
ments and sorrows of life have made
mo so; but I must strive against that
tendency; tho bright beings of a
higher lil'o can only come close to us
when wo are at our best. Let me try
always to remember that "
As sho placed lier head on the
downy pillow, Dolores was already al
most iu a drc.nu, out of which a
radiant face seemed to siuilo npon her,
ami across her brow and cheek she
felt a touch as soft and sweet as the
dropping of rose leaves.
"Minims, dearest," s!is mur
mured, "is it you? Ah, yes, my own
mamma, it must be you, for nothing
can keep our mother from us. Noth
ing not even death!"
And then Dolores slept, tranquilly,
hiMi; i'y; cud f ilch idecj: juiht well
have drawn tho angels to look oa it
and bless it.
Determined that nothing merely
fanciful s'uoild cause her to bring
sorrow to the girl who bad rescued
In".' from loneliness and poverty, Do
l: rcs wet herself tin task of looking
for every good quality iu the charac
ter of Clarence Stanley, with tho nee
cssury isccoPipauimeut to cueh a
search, of being as blind as possible
to bis defects; aud. looked at from
this point of view, sha was surprise 1
to find bow pleasing o person that
gentleman all at one became. As to
whether this iras a right or a wise
thing to do, sho did not yet pause to
ask herself. She wr.s so fond o:
Polly, and grateful affection weut ki
far beyond anyibmg else, that her im
pure "was to think nothing and feel
not b iug except wbu' were calculated
to uiaUp I'clly happy.
And Polly was happy. Her prettj
face beamed with joy when she fa.',
how entirely her new sister seemed to
have rhuuired ber viewa in regard
to Clurenc
Mr. Str.uley, Recording to hi al
most iu variable custom, called to tec
Polly about the middle of the aften
lioou ou the day K'.iccceuing their
evening at the opera, and he wan
agreeably surprised to lind himself
very cordially received by Dolores.
The possibility of their relationship
to each other formed iv subject of eii
grossing interest to Polly; and it was,
also, very interesting to themselves,
although, at lltvt, such a supposition
was far from attractivo to the young
Spanish girl. Hut the thought grew
upon her; aud as she kuw Mury Ham
ilton's pleasure in the idea, und as sho
rellcctcd that, if related to this bund
smiio young Englishman, she was also
related to his whole family, a sudden
desire awoke iu her heart that tho
surmise might prove a correct one.
It was very pa I to stand nil uboie iu
a great wido world where all others
the poorof-t, the most wretched had
brothers and sisters or ether rela
tives. She had nevil- felt it whi.'o
her mother still lived, for in the pas
sionate devotion that embraced u!l
kindred in that nn-.t iiia'.ioiiliip, Do
lores had never felt the want f any
other love. Jiut ft'l was diil'ereiit
now; even her alVection for Mary
would be increased, if petiole, by
knowing that she vntild locoine tho
wife of a luuu who was iu utility tho
relativo and cou-,in lie declared him
self to be.
Aud what n hn:idoiiu fellow L
was, this Clarence Stanley, nnd
bright and charming, too; ai:d, yes,
IP) doubt lovable ami noble, lor the
man who smiled that way into the
sweet upturned face of Polly Hamil
ton must be worthy of repaid and ad
miration. "Without doubt you two arc t-f tho
same race," said Polly, triumphantly.
"I can now trace a j-iisonal reseiii
blauce between you---in fact, I have.
j been aware f.f it from I he lirst,
I though didn't know jiut what if
I was. Hut, liitn, dour, our lace was
liko a face that f bad seen In lore
I like one with which Mas familiar,
1 from the imunrnt I first niw yon. AH
feces we really love arc like that,
think; aud l explained it that way to
myself. 15ut now I know there was
even more in it in that; it was the re
i semblance to Clarence."
Dolores listened to these words with
an indescribable feeling made up of
many different emotions; tliere was u
sudden overwhelming return of her
first antagonism ton nrd Stanley; and
as she glanced nt him there
was a startied terror in tho conviction
thatthey did look alike: though it
would have been ilillicult to sav just
whero the resemblance was; and yet
there was that ''family likeness, " as
it is called, so quickly recognized and
yet so difficult to describe: but stronger
thun nil el;e, she was conscious of
Polly Hamilton's lovo for this man,
of whom a dav or two before, she hud
said that she was afraid she "liked
him."
! "Liked him," thought holoies, with
a shiver of apprehension, as nhe
watched her friend's beaming face, her
Hushed check, bcr eloquent, glowing
eyes, aud the glances she bestowed on
tho object of her regard, "that 'lik
ing' has now passed iuto something
little ahort of adoration!"
J.lpiMKut as she was of the passion
ct tlRIJ iaid all unlearned as to girlish
fiaijirfi fc)olores knew quite well that
Puiliy JUEuilton's heart was thoroughly
nwikaiad, and that she hud, at one.
plung, precipitated herself into the
depths of this wildest sea of emotion.
That thought recalled her to her for
mer intention to too only whit was
pleasnut in Clarence Stanley, aud again
she repressed the fooling of repulsion
against him that had almost overcome
her. i
"Yes," sho Mini, glancing at him,
"wo are alike, somewhat, aud as I re
member my poor father, though I was
very yonng when he died, Mr. Stanley
looks even like bim. Iain more like
mamma, Marnja, thought she was so
lovely that it seems vanity in mo to
say so "
"Lovely! Yes. indeed! Oh, Clar
ence, yon never saw such a beautiful
face! Uita, will you let lis loi.k athe
picture? Dear, where is it? Can I
get it?"
Dolores lil t v Tie v..i:;i;it,.'."0 !r:r. 1'

it to Polly, who in turn gave it to
St inleyj Bt least she held out the case
to uim and, as he took hold of it, their
hands were pressed against each other,
anl they stood ga.ing on the fair f.ien
of her who had been Alice Limbay,
aud w ho now lay iu a nameless grave
among straugcrs, forgotten by all the
world save one slight girl to whom
that thought was now so bitterly pros
cut that she turned a way frofi
the sight of these lovers who w i re look
ing a'; her mother's picture.
As Dolores walked t the other sole
of the room, a servant niiiiounecd the
arrival of callers; and Polly, with a
bright blush, started uway ti oi.i Stan

"Oh, Peithn," oxclnimed loliv. "I

Woman's l'litrp In o!f.
When women In America first began
to play golf they were allowed at many
ef the big dubs to use the links only
li certain hours ou certain days when
;! was thought that their presence
would not Incommode the lords of
t.'re:ltioii.
The lirst courses laid out. in America
Were vny lmrt, and consequently
?asy. That of the Morris County Club,
jne of tlie tlucst In the country then,
is now, had iu those days but seven
holes, nnd not one of them was over a
ilrive and Iron shot in letiglh. The
women were therefore able to roach
them with a drive and brasscy. and so j'
were as well off as the men. and their j
scores soon began to ooliinai'c Very fa- I
inrably with those of their masculine!
competilors. This was also true of
Dther courses and clubs, and llM' worn
n naturally asked for the privilege of
playing at any and nil hours, urging
as tin excuse their ability to make low
Scores.
After much hesitation and head shak
ing on the part of thot-e men who.
never having had sisters, had no idea
of the physical capabilities o." a girl,
pciinissloii was granted.
Th" women took tholr hnnlly won
i . .n .-sio-.i with ' ;loy, nnd proceeded
lo dt ntonstrato that they could play
good golf by taking on their detractors
for a round and soundly heating them.
From that day women have had an un
disputed place on tho links, anil for the
past three or four years i; has heoti es

hound Is the fastest of nil four-footed
animals. When going full gallop it
can cover twenty yards a second, or
aboui a mile iu a minute and twenty
eight seconds- a sliced that eomes
pretty near thai of the carrier pigeon.
There are few thoroughbred horses
that cau exceed nineteen yards a sec
ond. Croyhounds have been known to
better that by four yards. Foxhounds
have a record of four miles In' six and
a half minutes, or nearly eighteen
yards a second. This speed is to some
extern an itiherlteo gift, as wolves cau
