Flora Mardyn was a very pretty
.girl. Not beautiful as was fated
Cleopatra, but 1 ipe and rosy, and
violet eyed, with satin-smooth skin,
tinged with flushes of delicious
pink, and hair that glistend in the
sunshine, as if it had been powdered

Vol. IV.
Mr. Piercy and Harry Joiibert, who
seem, created expressly, to. waltz and
carry v boquets- and hang over a la
dy's sofa to make the hours pass
away with pleasant small talk. I
never could succeed in that line, and
yet I believe I should 'make as good
a husband as any man among them
all, to any woman who cares for me 1
Ay there's the rub as poor Hamlet
has it: she must care for me and
that is what Flora Mardyn does not
and cannot do 1 And I had hoped
so much. - I had built up so many
dream castles, with her for the fairy
queen of them all. Well, it is over
now ; sne spall have no iurther cause
to complain of me I"
And Hugh Fordham paced up and
down, up and down the green walk,
like a mourner walking in the; sad
funeral procession of his-own bright
est hopes and. dreams. '
He had loved Flora- from a child ;
he bad almost unconsciouslv con-
nected her with all the aspirations
of his future life, and it was all over
now. "
"Is that you, Fordham, stalking
up and down like a ghost ? Come ;
we're all going to the trout pool in
Winfield's Woods ; it's a splendid
morning for the sport ; will yqu come
with us?" ;
"As well that as anything else."
said Fordham, drearily, as he flung
away his half-smoked cigar.
Trul', it made little difference to
him .whither he went now, or how
he employed the Avaste of a life-time
that lay before him. Mr. Piercy and
Harry Joubert, and Captain Lacy
might laugh and jest as they strode
along; they had not been cut to the
heart as he was.
The sultriness of the heavy sum
mer atmosphere was ominous of a
thunder-shower, nor Was the omen
unfulfilled. The piscatorial party
were intent on their sport, when the
pattering of big drops on the leaves
around them warned them of the
coming tempest, and they fled for
shelter to a little cottage 6n the edge
of the woods.
"I -suppose some one lives here,"
observed Captain Lacy, as he shook
the rain-drops off his bright black
hair upon the porch floor.
"I suppose so, too. vouns sir,
said a cracked voice from -within
"And as you have come hither for
shelter, I can't very well turn you
out. Walk in, gentlemen; my poor
house is open to you."
And a bowed old man beckoned
them into a barely furnished room,
and withdrew. .
"Here's a, regular adventure," said
Piercy with a laugh.
"At least," observed Fordham, "it
affords us a shelter from the shower,
and if our host is not specially dis
posed to be social, why, we cannot
help it." v
And he. sat down composedly by
the window to await the progress'o
atmospheric electricity.
But the four gentlemen, as it hap
penea, were not tne only persons
who had sought refuge from arrowy
lightning and rolling thunder-claps.
In the next room sat a young lady,
her bright eyes a little softened by
vague fear, the curl nearly out of her
f golden tresses, and her white dress
stained with . rain Miss Flora Mar
''You're a good half-mile from the
Warren Hotel miss," was the excla
mation of the woman of the house,
when Flora had timidly ventured to
ask a question: "You've took the
wrong turnin', that's all. You should
have gone by the cross-roads instead
o' comin' straight on. I'll send my
little Michael with you when it quits
rainin' ; meantime you'd better set
up to the kitchen fire -and dry your
petticoat3." , ,
.The invitation, although," not ele
gantly worded, . was hospitably
meant, and Miss Mardyn did not
scruple to accept it. "
: "Who" is" that coming ?" she asked,
a little nervously,' as her ' hostess
stretched her'head out of the win

well-known accents of the voices;
she almost held her ! breath; l The

the speakers might almost as well
have occupied the same apartment
as herself. . :
"And if we "shouldn't reach home
to-night," laughed Piercy's careless,
insouciant voice, "the little Mardvn
would be inconsolable.' n X

temptously answered -Captain Lacy.

in a voice of cold, smooth ''scorn "j

"Gentlemen, will jrou excuse me?"
spoke up Hugh Fordham 's voice;
"butI must request that this style of
conversation may - cease. I have
known and respected Miss Mardyn
many years,' and no one shall. vent
ure to- speak slightingly of her in
my presence." " i .
"If you could only hear her make
fun of you, old fellow !" exclaimed
Captain Lacyv " ; ' r; I lj
"That is very likely," Hugh an
swered, although she could detect
the accent of pain in his tones. "I
am quite aware that there is little in
my manners and appearance to at
tract aught but ridicule, but she is
too pure and lovely to be" spoken
slightly of. Nor shall I for 'an in
stant permit it."
His voice sounded clear and ring-
mg.
and for an instant the silence
that ensued remained unbroken. "
When the conversation was. re
newed, it was upon some other sub
ject, and Miss Mardy n chose to hear
no more. ' V
"Will you allow me to go up to
your room to arrange my hair r
she asked of good Mrs. Nehemiah
Sparkles and the woman wondered
what made the young lady look so
pale, as she stood before her six-inch
glass, mechanically drawing the hair
pins from her bright tresses.
But everything comes to an end
in due time, even the thunder-show
ers, and at length, greatly to Flora's
delight the sunbeams once more in
undatad the earth, the black clouds
rolled away, and the foliage of the
woods sparkled as if the green
boughs were all heavy with jewels.
Miss Mardyn, safely ensconsed be
hind the white curtains, trimmed
with . hand-made t "ball-fringe,"
watched the four gentlemen depart,
with a singular sensationpf relief.
. "There," said Mrs. Sparkles, "them
men folks has cleared out, and
mean to ask. Nehemiah to harness
ud old Doll, and take you: to the
villagen the wagon, them, paper
soled shoes o yourn ain't no good
arter a rain like this."
Hugh Fordham was sitting alone
in the .; hotel parlor, that evening,
when Flora Mardyn came inland
walked straight up to him.
rDear Hugh, will you take me
back to your heart once more ?"
Now his face brightened up !
"Flora my darling do you re
ally mean it?" ; V' . . ..
"From the , deepest depths of my
heart," she answered. "I have been
cruel and coquettish, but I think I
see my folly at last." 1 . 1
He folded her silently to his heart
"I never thought to have been so
happy again, dear one," he murmur
ed. k ' i i .;..: vi.;.
; And when Messieurs Lacy, Jou
bert, and Piercy essayed their next
little attempts at a flirtation," they
were thunder-struck by the recep
tiori vouchsafed to them ; truly Miss
Mardyn was like a different person.
She was ashamed now, not of her
lover, but of herself.

.. A dramatic society in Little Rock
decided to introduce: infoTpneT of
their plays a rough character, whose
business should be to terrorize ev
erything in sight.. The manager. of
the dramatic society said that he
knew: the very man who could make
the character a brilliant success. He
had his eye on a lank and grizzled
man who had come -down from the
hills, .and, when the manager called
at a ; wagon yard and introduced
himself and stated his business, the
"character," who said that his name

"Well, you see, there'll be a party
of young ladies ata little summer

, Old Deeds. .
t ... . i . ;
There is much uneasiness in the
mirid$ of many persons in regard to
the fate of old Unregistered deeds.
1 : ,' :
The last Legislature changed . the
registration laws, ahii in. effect rre
quired all deeds to be" registered by
JanuJtry 1, 1885-If a deed is not
registered which ante-dates January
1, '36j what becomes of it? I The act
is plain. . There can be but one con
struction, notwithstandinar the vast
i
amount of excitement. rt After Jan
uary!, '86, the first registered deed
holds the land in case there is no
tenant in ; possession t holding under
and through an unregistered deed.
An V deed can be rajrifitprAd nnnr rtr
, -0 " .--w w
at any lime alter January 1 subject
only to prio-rights of : innocent pur
chaser in case the party ; holding an
unregistered deed is himself or . by
tenant m' the actual possession, of
the land. The old law i was that a
deed when registeredv4ook effect
from its delivery. The new law is
that it takes effect from its registra
tion.
Prior to this, if A made a deed to
B, and B puts it in his safe for ten'
years, and then A made a deed to C
for value, still C, an innocent man,
would not get . the land. Now if A
makes a deed to B B to hold the
land as against an innocent pur
chases, must do one of two things :
First, register the deed, or second
take possession of the premises. Ei
ther is notice under the law to the
whole world, and if either is done
there can be no innocent purchaser.
We therefore conclude that no per
son need be uneasy in regard to
present or old titles if they are them
selves or if they have others in pos
session, or if their titles are register
ed. , . ,. ; .
This is the law stated in plain
terms. That it is a eood law no one
who will for a moment consider the
question can deny. Titles must be
settled. Land owners must be in
actual possession ori register their
deeds. They can do either or both.

From the San Franciscan
Bloomsby, who is -out on the road
a great deal, is quite forgetful. When
packing his valise to go away he is
pretty apt to leave something whose
loss sometimes causes him not a lit
tle inconvenience. The last time he
went out his wife told him to think
of the articles he wished to take,
and then to tie strings around his
fingers to represent each one., As
fast as he put an article in his valise
he could take off a stringsb if any
strings were left he would know in
time that he . had. lorgotten some
thing. He concluded to follow her
advice, and the(articles he wished to
take and the strings on his fingers
corresponded exactly.
"This time,'' he said proudly, as
he laid down, bis valise to go to
breakfast, "I have the satisfaction of
knowing that I haven't forgotten"
ranything." '
An hour later he was well on his
way to Kankakee Suddenly 1 it
struek him . that he had forgotten
something. He thought a moment
and then groaned. He had neglect
ed to bring his valise
