My Lady Coquet. .
“ Going abroad, Fred? Why, what does
that mean ? When I last saw you, such an.
den was furthest from your thoughts,
and here you give me twenty-four hours‘
notice of your departure on an indefinite
tour."
And the speaker, a. tall, splendid-look-
ing man, opened his dark eyes in un-
feigued wonder as they rested on the face
of his friend.
“I’ve hardly given myself more than
twenty-four hours’ notice; Max. Of course
it‘s a sudden notion, but to you, the oldest
and best friend I have in the world, I may
as well own the truth, though you need
imagine it no secret. A very large portion
of the fashionable world thoroughly under-
stands my motives. I’m hard hit, Max, and
I’ve got to go away. I .want to feel an
ocean rolls between me and the woman 'who
has jilted me.” '
“ Jilted you? " '
“ Yes, jilted me. It’s not a pretty word,
but I’m not in a frame of mind to look
through the“ dictionary for another that
means the same thing. I loved Nora Field-
ing with a love you cannot even dimly com-
prehend—you, who have lived for more
than thirty years unmoved by any woman’s
beauty, unthrilled by any woman’s voice.
I had some reason, God knows, for deem-
ing my love returned. She smiled on me,
as only soulless women can smile; she
seemed glad when I came, sorry when I
left her. Yet when, moved to madness, I
put my love into words, she smiled still,
and told me that my love was folly. Of
course, I should in that moment have
seemed, despised her. So I did, perhaps;
but it made my love none the less, my sufa
faring no whit the easier. I can't describe
her to you, Max. I think she might entrap
even you in her meshes.”
“A coquet cntrap me? No, no, my boy 1
Forewamed, forearmed. Suppose we have
a little trial of Skill—I and this slayer of
men’s hearts. You’ve left her at the beach,
have you not ? I was just contemplating a
little trip seaward. What do you say, old
fellow ? Suppose you put your revenge in
my hands? "
“ You may make the attempt, Max, right
willingly; but don’t let the flame scorch
you, in breasting it for my sake. Make her
suffer, but see to it that she entails no pain
on you.”
“ You forgot, my boy, that .you have be-
queathed’ to me your scorn, but carry your
,love with you. Bury it at sea, Fred, and
start fresh on the other side. I’ll take care
of my Lady Coquet on this Side."
The next afternoon, standing on the pier,
Max Elliott watched disappear down the
bay the brave ship on which Fred Bonalds
was a passenger for the Old World—a self-
miide exile for a woman’s sake.
An honest bitterness welled up in Max
Elliot’s heart as he turned away. Better
than he had ever loved a woman, he had
loved this man, who had been the play.
thing of a woman’s idle hour, who had had
his honest love tossed back to him as
though it were the foam upon a wave, and
who had been driven to other lands to find
the cure of absence and perchance forget-
fulness.
When his brougham stepped in front of
his club, he glanced at his watch. It was a
sultry after-anon in July. The city was
growing unendurable, and there would be
barely time to hastily pack a valise and catch
the six o'clock boat which would transport
him to cool breezes, the promise of a sea-
bath, and—his revenge!
Such a thought was worthy to be acted
upon; therefore, the next morning, Max
Elliot’s name appeared upon the Ocean
House register, to be greeted by an approving
chorus of- welcome from the dear five hun-
dredfriends already gathered there.
AS by natural instinct, he found his way
to Mrs. 'Redfern’s side. Great friends as
he and George Redfem were, he and George
Redfern's wife were better.
“What has brought you here ? " she
asked, with a little quizzical smile.
“ Is not your presence a sufiicient mag.
net for a less attractive place? " he answered,
gallantly.
. She shook her head.
“ Of course; but I’ve been moping here
for a fortnight, and have sent you number-
less messages by George, all of which you
have repudiated. You don’t deserve that I
should ofier you any kindness in return,
and I’ve a great mind not to present you to
Nora Fielding today. All, you see how
easily I have guessed your secret. I saw
Fred Ronald’s name, this morning, in the
list of passengers on the Scythia. Of
course he told you how badly he was out
up. It was a great shame, and I told
Nora so frankly, but the girl is so pretty
and so clover that I suppose she really is
not wholly to blame because men choose to
detach their scalps, hang them at their belt,
, and than go about the world mooning over
their-loss."
" Trust a .woman to defend a woman,
when jealousygis not possible to either,” an.
swered Max. “ For my part, I regard Miss
Fielding as utterly heartless and a flirt."
“ Judge not, that ye be not judged," re-
plied the pretty littlo matron. “ Yes, that
is she," she added, noting how the man’s
eyes suddenly dilated, as a tall, slender fig-
ure, draped in close-clinging white swept
out of the open door on to the piazza.
" There's no woman like her here. Of
course she is conscious of her power, and
uses it. But look in her eyes, Max, and tel?
me, if you dare, that Nora Fielding has no
heart. No man- has ever touched it, that is
all.”
“ The idea of a woman’s eyes betokcning
soul,” was the cynical rejoinder.
But there was no time for more, for he
and Mrs. Redfem had approached close to
where the girl steed, and are either of them
was aware of her intention, they had been
formally presented.
He would carry on no slow warfare, de-
termined Max; and in that moment he be-
gan the campaign. '
“Beware, Nora! ” whispered Mrs. Bed.
fern, that evening, in the little, shell-tinted
car. “ He is Fred Ronald‘s dearest friend,
and be sure he knows all regarding that lif-
tle episode there is to know." >
But the only amet- the girl vouchsafed
this friendly piece of advice was a shrug of
the white shoulders, gleaming through the
black lace of her gown.
A fortnight passed, and the hotel gossips
again found food in Miss Fielding’s latest
conquest, for, by this time, so Max Eliot
was deemed. .
He understood now the infatuation which
had possessed his friend, not by experience
-—for he told himself that each day he
learn to scorn this woman more—but lis-
tenin the low, musical inflections of her
parlor stronghold, fluttered round the can-
dle; but, save by a little, tired look, he saw
from his covert and distant observation in
her eyes, she welcomed his return to her,
all unquestioning his absence. .He
found himself growing irritated, almost an-
gq‘ Will you drive with me this afternoon?”
She asked him, one morning.
“ Yes,” he answered.
And at five o‘clock, the perfect little trap
stood waiting its mistrcsa‘ occupancy—the,
horses pawing impatiently, while the groom
held their heads, and he lounging near,
waiting Miss Fielding's advent.
Fifteen, twenty minutes passed, and she
did not come. The half-hour had strucl

which made the groom's scramble for-hit
place behind almost a Waterloo. ,
Max, quickly observing her, noted that
her face was unusually pale, and althougl:
there was no redness about her eyes, he
,could have fancied there hadbeen recent
tears there. However, she talked merrily
and brightly, as was her wont, and soon the
sea air brought back the color to her cheek,
and chased the latent look of sadness from
her eyes.
“ What a lovely sky," she exclaimed, ass
sudden turn in the road brought themlin
full view of sky and ocean, and at that
moment the sunset gun boomed fromtha
fort. ,.
The horses made a sharp swerve. The
road was very narrow, with large boulders
on either side. Almost before any one
could realize how or when it was done, the
wheel of the phaeton had struck one of
these, and the girl, totally unprepared to
resist the shock, was thrown heavily to the
ground. Almost as rapidly, Max was be
side her.
For the instant he thought her dead. He)
headhad struck a small stone, and a tiny
stream of blood was trickling from her tom--
ple, making her pallor more ghastly. The
thought that She might be dead came to him
with a sickening awfulnesa. Death and
this bright, beautiful being seemed so wide
asunder; and yet in a moment, perhaps,
they had been united; but almost with the
dreadful fear came its relief.
She opened the lovely eyes, and the white?
lips quivered, while She made a feeble mo:
tion to rise. He drew a brandy-flask from
his pocket, and made her drink; than,
when she had grown a little stronger, he
lifted her into the carriage, and supporting
her with one arm, drove slowly home. _
As they approached the hotel, she called
strengthend will-into action, and gaining
the first entrance, escaped with but little as-
sistance into the house. By mutual consent
they made no mention of the accident.
For a day or two ahewas confined to her
room; but when she reappeared, save that
She was a trifle paler, she had never before
looked more lovely.
“ I thank you so much, Mr. Elliot, for
your kind care of me," she said, as they
stood together on the moonlit piazza.
“Do not mention it," he answered,
coldly. »
These past three days had been filled to
him with a strange experience. His re-
venge had grown distasteful to him, he told
himself. It could not mend Fred’s broken
heart, and his own could only harbor scorn.
The next week he saw but little of Miss
Fielding. He avoided her wherever he '
could do so, although he noted that she was
growing wan and pale.
“ What are you doing, Max Elliot? ”
asked Mrs. Redfern, one morning, as she
came upon him seated by an open window
of the long drawing-room. “ I told you
once that Nora Fielding’s fault lay not in
her non-possession of a heart, but that no
man had touched it. I could not say
that to-day. Have you no samples, no re-
morse ? "
“ None. If what you tell me be true, I
should only exult. What could I feel but
scorn for a woman who could lead a man on
to wrecking his life at her feet ?' But you
need have no fear. Miss Fielding is a capi-
tal actress, that is all.”
“ Mark what I say—you will recall those
we: ” prophesied the little matron, sweep-
ing angrily away.
“Never! ” mentally ejaculated the man,.
vaulting through the low window to the
piazza with 'a sudden feeling that the
house stifled him, but not prepared to find
himself face to face with Miss Fielding's
self.
She had been sitting with an open book

ward, and she had heard of necessity every
syllable which had been uttered.
“ Yes, I have heard all,” she said, in re-
ply to his questioning look. “-You came
here to revenge your friend, Mr. Elliot.
Well, your revenge-shall be complete. Yen
say he suffered. So you have made me suf-
fer. Wlly should I seek to conceal what is
acutest pain to confess? Was it my fault
that I could not love Fred Ronalds ? Was
it my fault that his own love made. him
blind ? If so, I have been punished, and
my punishment is your reward. ’ To it I add
the humiliation of this avowal."
Never had she looked more lovely, never
more proud, than when she stopped from
the throne to the level of suffering woman-
hood. His scorn, his triumph—where were
they? Swept away as by a mighty flood,
and revealing the naked truth, of all which
yet might be, of all which so nearly he had
lost.

give up my revenge to you. Will you,
more generous than I have been, refuse to
take it ? ”
“Not that l " she answered; and now
the bright eyes were filled with dinning
tears. "But in taking it, it is to give in re-
turn my love, my heart, my life! Ah,
Max,” she whispered, softly, a little later,
“ is it always the woman's fault that men
say she has no soul ? Shall we expose our

out of it, but precisely because, although
writing very fast, he had a way of round-
ing the head of the notes, which took time,
and writing a whole operatic-score in a fort-
night does not allow of many wasted min-
utes. Yet another instance of quick slow
writing was Alexandre Dumas, (I mean the
father.) He wrote his novels on long half-
aheets, and he was beside himself with hap-
piness when I brought him some large Eng-
lish blotting paper, in sheets bigger than
his own writing paper, which he had only
to turn over to dry it at once. He wrote a
wonderfufly handsome hand, very long lat-
ters, and seemingly slowly, as if printed,
yet one leaf was covered after another in
next to no time.
Donizctti wrote quickly, to puck an ex-
tent that when I saw him write for the first
time I did riot think he was writing music.
He had a knack of covering the pages with
dots like a telegraph strip, and when
he had done so he added the tails and lines.

was very fond of him ’ He had not seen her
in several years when-she was comparatively

She exclaimed, “ Oh, my," and fainted
quite away on his shoulder. A doctor was
called, and an examination showed that
three ribs had been fractured by the young
man’s strong arms. The situation for the

gregation collected simply to stare at the
convicts squeezed into one pew, who in
their turn stared with mixed feelings at the
comn on the table just before their eyes.
There was still the same tumultuous gather-
ing to view the last act in the tragedy, the
same bloodthirsty mob swaying to and fro
before the gates, the same blue-blooded
spectators, GeOrge Selwyn or my Lord Tom
Noddy, who breakfasted in state with the
jailer, and so got a box seat or rantoda
window opposite at an“ exorbitant rate.
The populace were like degenerate Romans
in the ampithcatrc waiting for the butchery
to begin. They fought and struggled des-
perately.for front places; people felland
were trampled to death, hoarse roars came
from thousands of brazen throats, which
-svtellcd into a terrible chorus as the black
figures of the performers on the gallows
stood out against the sky. “Hats ofi!”
“Downinfrontl” these cries echoed and
ra-echoedinincrming volume, and all at
once abruptly came to an end—the bolt
was drawn, the drop had fallen, and the
miserable wretclr had gone to his long
home.—Mqior Griffiths, in the Fortnightly
Review.
m nun-an or Runes.
Of all the endings of Rings in our long
history, the two most impressive are surely
the two that are most opposite. There is
the death of the King who fell suddenly in
the height of his power by an unknown
hand in the thickest depths of the forest,
and there is the death of the King who,
fallen from his power, was brought forth to
die by the, stroke of the'llaadsman before
the windows of his own palace, in the Sight
of his people and of the sun. The striking
nature of the tale is worthy of its long to-
membrauce, but one could almost wish that
the name of the supposed actor in the
death of Rufus had never attached itself to
the story. The dark words of the Chronicle
are in‘ truth more impressive than the tale,
true or false, of Walter Tirol. Rufus was
shot in his hunting from his own men.
That is enough; his day was over. A life
was ended, stained with deeds which, in our
history at least, stand out without fellow be-
fore or after, but a life in which we my
hero and there see signs of great powers
wasted, even of momentary feelings which
might have been trained. into something
nobles. As it is, the career of William the
Bed is one of which the kindest words that
we can say are that he always kept his,
word when it ‘was plightcd in a certain
form, and that he was less cruel in his own
person than many men of his time, than
some better man than himself. But, how-
ever we judge of the man, there is but one
judgment to be passed upon the reign.

AN ARAB DIIOW-
Imagine a curiously shaped boat, par-
tially covered in, high in the stern and low
at the bow, suggesting to a nervous mind a
treacherous purpose of diving beneath the
first advancing wave. There is a very heavy
lateen sail held up by rotten ropes, which
occasionally startle the crew and passengers
by breaking and letting their whole burden
crash down upon deck. The water leaks
in at every point indiscriminately, requir-
ing four men to bale night and day. There
are eighty passengers, where, according to
Western notions, thirtywould be a super.
abundant cargo. From stem to stem there
rises a combination of abominable smells
truly sickening; the rotting wood of the
dhow, the accumulated grease and filth of
years, the bilge-water, and the efiluvia from
the perspiring Skins of the crowded negroes
—-all contribute their quota to an efiect
which words cannot describe. Such were _
the horrors which awaited me as the dhow
left Mikindany behind. When at last my
usual attack of seasickness laid me low, I
really felt that that otherwise unwelcome
sensation might sometimes be reckoned a
boon and a blessing. 'The worst, however,
was yet to come. As night act in I crept
with some difilculty into my camp bed-
stead, which wc had contrived to stow
under a sort of after-deck (there was only
about eight inches between my nose and the
flooring overhead.) 1 had just begun to
dose ofi when an uneasy consciousness of
strange sensations dawned upon me. Soon
I was made only too painfully certain of the
presence of some of the most objectionable
companions of man in all lands. One well-
known species swarmed over me with per.
tinacious purpose ; another kind of a more
lively nature, in their excitement at the dis-
covery of a thinoskinned subject—a decided
variety from the leathery nigger integu-
merit—skipped about with playful glee,
prospecting here and there as the humor
suggested; then, to crown the whole, be-
fore I left that wretched bunk, a creeping
sensation set in about the roots of my hair,
which at first made me irriagine it was about
to stand on end with horror of my situation,
but which, alas! turned out to be a still
“ more real aggravation of my tortures.—
Good Words.
BRUTAL TREATMENT.
There is a good deal of indignatiOnin'
SanFrancisco about, the brutal imminent
of a soldier belonging to the garrison on the
island of Alcatraz, who had the temerity to
offer a young Lieutenant an explnudtion of
a fight that had occurred several days pre-
viously.‘ The Lieutenant refused to hear
him, and when the soldier persisted, lost
his temper at what he considered importi-
nenee, and had the manbound and geggcd
andcast into' a dark, damp Mddirtycell
two and a half feet wide by seven feet long,
where he was kept confined fourteen days
and nights without being permitted to
change his clothes, or oven to wash him-
self. Hisscle foodwas dry bread, which
was headed to him twice a day, and three
times a day he received water; and his bed
was the bare damp boards of the. floor.
Hishandswcro chained, and when suifer-
ing axtorted groans from him, he was
gagged. Andallthistorture was inflicted
withouttrlalor sentence of any military
authority. This is almost as bad as some
of the instances of hideous. brutality that
have occurred in the armies of Germany
and Austria. > _ _

OLD COINS.
A few days since Charles A. New'bold, ra-
siding near Georgetown, Burlington county,
found twelve ancient gold coins, each about
thcaiac of a Bland dollar, bearingdatea

at the barrel, which turns slowly around till
it shows a section like that of an orange
from which one of the quarters has been
cut out. You speak to the invisible sister,
who asks your will; and she answers you
in good‘ Italian. and cultivated intonation.
You hear the voice quite distinctly, but as
if it were far, very far away. She is really
separated from you only by a slender slice
of wood, but she is, absolutely invisible.
Not the smallest chink is visible between
you and her. Sounds travel through the
barrier, but sight is absolutely excluded.
These nuns live on charity, keeping two
Lents in this year—one from November to
Christmas, the other the ordinary Lent of
Catholic Christendom. Living, therefore,
on charity, they may eat whatever is given
to them, saving “flesh meat," during the
fasting time. If you take them a cake or a
loaf of bread, a bottle of wine, a roll of
chocolate ban-bone, a. basket of eggs, it is
all good for them. _
They must be absolutely without food for
twenty-four hours before they may ask'help
from the outside world. And when they
hive looked starvation in the face, then
they may ring a bell which means: “ Help
usl we are furnishing." Perhaps you take
them nothing eatable, but you place on the
ledge of the cut orange, by which you sit,
some money, demanding in return their
“ cartolini," or little papers. The barrel
turns slowly roulid, then back again, and
you find on the ledge where you had laid
your lire a paper of “ cartolini." These
are very small, thin, lightprinted slips,
neatly folded in tiny packets, three to each
packet, which, if you swallow in faith, will
cure you of alldiseasc. .
After your talk is ended, the barrel turns
round once more and presents its face as of
an immovable and impenetrable looking
barrier. One of the pretty traditions of
Rome is that each sister has her day, when
she throws a flower over the convent wall as
a sign to her watching friends that she is
still alive. When she has been gathered to
the majority the flower is not thrown, and
the veil has fallen forever.
HOW WE SPEND SUNDAY.
The New Yorker is a constitutional Sab.
oath breaker, observes the New York cor-
respondent of the San Francisco Chronick,
and it is almost a necessity that he should
be. Nobody works harder six days in the
week than he does. From morning until
night he works, walks, talks and cats at
high pressure. He is the abject slave of
competition, which, while it may be the life
of trade, is certame in New York the death
of tradesmen. His fellow citizens from
other cities are constantly calling him to ac-
count for this. In the Chicago, St. Louis,
Cincinnati, Boston, Philadelphia and Balti-
more papers he reads that he is hoggish,
mercenary, cold and unsocial. Boston went
to the extreme of saying in a magazine ar-
cle that the New Yorker. “ has no civicism,"
which, being interpreted, means that he is
The New Yorker never understands why he
is so harshly criticised until he goes among
his neighbors. He rushes into a Chicago
store half out of breath, slips down his sam-
ple box and whips out a card:
“I am from the great house of Such &
Co., New York,” he says, “and want to sell
you so-and-so."
The Chicagoan either buys or not, but
when the New Yorker has put hishat on the
back of his head, preparatory to diving out
of the store, the Chicagoan says: “ By the
way, have you been out on our Drexel
boulevard ? No ? Then let me drive you
cut this afternoon.” He meets the same
reception in Cincinnati and St. Louis. In
Boston the hospitality of the merchants is
only a little less warm, and in Baltimore the
driving New Yorker is positively bored with
kindly advances. But the idea of 'asking a
visitor to his store to go to Central Park, to
drive on the road, to drive at Coney Island
or to take in Fifth avenue no more occurs
to him than flying. Indeed, his partner
would think him light-headed if it did occur
to him and it was permitted to interfere
with his business. But for this deficiency
he more than makes up on Sunday. He

WAR. HANDKERCHIEFS.
The ancient custom of illustrating pocket
handkerchiefs for the amusement and in-
struction of children has been seriously
emulated by the French War Office for the.
benefit of the national army. The cotton
handkerchiefs provided for the French sol-
diers are now decorated with special texts
and cuts for the technical and sanitary in-
structiOn of the wearers. The center is co-
cupied with the Cross of the Legion of
Honor upon a red background, and the in.

Thespecial packet handkerchief» prepared
for the infantry soldier has exact drawings
of the arms used by him, with explanations
oftheir mechanism. The borders of the
handkerchiefs are hemmed in with a frame-
, work of the national colors, and within this
framework are printed a number of sanitary
precepts to be observed on march and dur-
ing a campaign. Here are some of the
marching advices: “ Wear the cravat
loose. A strip of flannel day and night
around the body in order to keep off the
dial-rhea. Quench thirst with very' small
doses of wine, coffee, vinegar-and-water, or
brindy-and-water.’ Take a piece of bread

Drink water neither hastily nor toocold.

possible the whole body. Wash the feet
and rub in a little fat or brandy. Next
cook the soup, and do it at once, even
though feeling quite tired out."
