CHAPTER XIV.
The Bow of Orange Ribbon.
Katherlne sat down and lemaincd
still as a carven imago, thinking over
what had been told her. Thero had
been a time when her husband's con-
stant talk of Lady Suffolk had pained
her, and when she had1 'been a little
jealous of trie apparent familiarity
which existed in their lclatious with
each other; but Hyde had laughed at
her fears, and she had taken a prido
In putting his word above all her sus-
picions. Jt was also a part of Katherlno's
Just and upright disposition to make
allowances for tho lifo by which her
husband was surrounded. Hyde had
told her that there wij necessary
evcnts in his daily experience of
which it was better Jor her to bo
ignorant, "They belong to it, as my
uniform does," he said; "they arc a
part of its appearance, but they never
touch my feelings, and they never do
jou a moment's wrong, Katherlne'
Thi3 explanation it had been tho duty
both of lovo and of wisdom to accept;
and she had done so with a faith
which asked for no conviction beyond
it.
And now she was practically told
that for years ho had been the lover of
another woman; that her own exist-
ence was.dguhted oT'denled; that, if it
wore admitted, if was with a supposi-
tion that affected both her own good
name and the rights of her child. Hyde
was-dhe piobabl5 representative of an
ancient noble English family, and Its
influence was great; If he leally wish-
ed to annul their marriage, perhaps
it was in his power to do so.
She was no craven, and she faced
the position In all Its' cruel bearings.
She asked herself if een for the
sake of her little Joris, she would re-
main a wife on sufferance, or by tho
tie of rights which she would havo
to legally enforco; and then she lifted
the candle and passed softly Into his
room to look at him. She slipped down
upon her knees by the sleeping boy,
and out of tho terror and sorrow of
her soul spoke to the Fatherhood in
heaven. The boy suddenly awoke; he
flung his arms about her neck, ho laid
h'is face close to hers and said:
"Oh, mother, beautiful mother, I
thought my father was here!"
"You have been dreaming, dailing
Joris."
"Yes; I am sorry I have been dream-
ing. I thought ray father was here
my good father, that loves us so
much."
Then, with a happy face, Katherlno
with kisses Bent him smiling into
dreamland again. In those few tender
moments all her fears slipped away
from her heart. "I will not believe
what a bad man says against my hus-
band against my dear one who is
not here to defend himself. Lies, lies!
I will make the denial for him."
And she kept within the comfort of
this spirit, even though Hyde's usual
lettfer was three days behind its usual
time. On tne fourth day her trust had
its reward. She found then that tho
delay had been, caused by tho neces-
sary charge and cure of ceremonies
which Lady Capel's death forced upon
her husband. She had almost a senti-
ment of gratitude to her, although she
was yet icnorant of her benuest of
eight thousand pounds. For Hydo had
resolved to wait until tlio reading of
tho will madp it certain, and then to
roslgn his commission and carry tho
double good news to Katherlno hira-
elf. Henceforward, they wero to bo
together. So this purpose, though un-
expressed, gave a joyous ring to his
letter; it was lover-like in its fond-
ness and hopefulness, and Katherlno
thought of Lady Suffolk and her 'emis-
sary with a contemptuous indiffer-
ence, ward" was upon every face.
Alas! theso are the unguarded hours
which sorrow surprises 1 Dut no
thought of trouble, and no fear of it,
had Katherlno, as alio stood boforo her
mirror one afternoon. She was watch-
ing Lettlce arrange tho doublo fold's
of her gray taffeta gown, when thero
came a-knock at her chamber Joor,
"Here bo a strange gentleman, ma
dam; to see, ypu; 'from London, he

went, down'-BtairB. SHywft Bkream
back slowly, with a letter in her, hand.
She was white, even to her ilpa. 'Fulfy
ten minutes' elapsed ore she gathered
Btrength aUfllctent to break its well-
known sea, vand takd In, tho full mean-
ing of words bo full of agony to hor.
"It is" midnight, bcloVed Katherlno,
and In six hours I may bo dead. Lord
l'agot spoke of my cousin tp mo in
such torms as leaves but ono way out
of tho affront. I pray you, if, you
can, to pardon me. You I shall Adore
with my Inst breath. Kate, my Kate,
forglvo me. If this comes to you by
strange hands, I shall bo dead or
dying. Kiss my son for mo and tnko
my last hopo and thought."
Theso woids she read, then wrung,
her hands nnd moaned like a creaturo
that had been wounded to death. Oh,
tho shamol Oh, tho wrong and Bor-
row! How colild she bear It? What
should sho do? Capt. Lennox, who
ljad brought tho letter, was waiting
for her decision. If sho would go to
her husband, then ho could rest and,
leturn to London ct his leisure. If
not, Hydo wanted his will, to add a,
codicil regarding tho eight thousand
pounds left him by Lady Capel. For
ho had been woiindcd In his side, and
a dangerous Inflammation having set
In, ho had been warned of a possible.
fatal result
Katherlno was not a rapid thinker.
She had little, either, of that Instinct!
which serves eomo women Instead ot
nil other prudences. Tho ono thought
that dominated nil others was that her
husband had fought and fallen for
Lady Suffolk. All these years sho
had been n slighted and deceived
wonlan. '
"To London I will not go," sho de-
cided. "Thero is sonio wicked plan
for mo. The will and the papers aro
wanted, that they may bo altered to
suit it. I will stay hero with my child.
Even sorrow great as mine Is best
borno in one's own home."
Sho went to the escritoire to get tho
papers. When she opened tho sense-
less chamber of wood, she found her-
self In the presence of many a tortur-
ing, tender memory. In nn open slldo
there was a rude plcturo of a horse.
It was little Joris' first attempt to
draw Mephlsto, and It had been care-
fully put away. The place was full of
such appeals. Among them was a ring
that Hyde's father had given him, his
mother's last letter, a lock of his son's
hair, her own first letter tho shy,
anxious noto that sho wrote to Mrs.
Gordon. Then she began to arrange
tho papers according to their size, and
a small sealed pnicol slipped from
among them.
Sho turned it over and over in her
hand, and tho temptation to see tho
loe-token Insldo became greater
every moment.
"If In this parcel there Is some love-
pledge from Lady Suffolk, then I go
not; nothing shall make me go. If in
it thero is no word of her, no mes-
sage to her or from her; if her namo
ia not there, nor the letters of "her
name then I will go to my own. A
new lovo, one not a year old, I can put
aside. I will forgive overy ono but
my Lady Suffolk."
So Katherln6 decided an she broko
the beal with firmness and rapidity.
Tho first paper within tho cover made
her tremble. It was a half sheet
which sho had taken ono day from
Bram's hand, and It had Bram's namo
across It. On it she had written tho
first few lines which she had tho right
to sign "Katherlno Hyde." It was,
Indeed, her first "wife" letter; and
within it was the precious love-token,
her own love-token the bow of
orange ribbon.
She gave a sharp cry as It fell upon
the desk; and then sho lifted and
kissed it, and held It to hor breast, as
sho rocked herself to and fro in a
passionate transport of triumphant
love.

NEW GUTTA PERCHA TREE.
Valuable Discovery Recently Made In
the Valley of the Amazon.
Up to qulto recent date tho world
has relied on the rubber tree for Its
supply of gutta percha, and on ac-
count of tho limited area In which this
plant grows the product has been ex-
ceedingly expensive. A short time, ago
a gutta percha merchant in tho Gula-
nas In examining the Amazon region
In South America found the balata
tree growing In abundance near Para
and on tho Amazon and Its tributaries
for thousands of miles. Tho Brazilians
had no knowledge of its gum-producing
properties and wore found cutting
down tho trees for firowood and build-
ing material. A concession was bought
and tho practical work of producing
gutta percha for the maiket begun.
Thero Is practically no limit to tho
supply of gutta percha on tho Amazon
and it can bo produced at a fraction
of tho cost of rubber. Tho method ot
"bloedlng" tho balatn tree is entirely
different from that used to extract tho
gum of tho rubber treo and only ex-
port "bleeders," it is said, can bo
employed. The trees yield many times
as much sap as tho rubber trees and
ono man can gather as much gutta
percha In a day as twenty man can
extract from tho rubber treo. Each
tree will averago three and a half
pounds and ono compotent "bleeder"
can prepare forty to fifty pounds por
day. Tho gum Is fermented and then
dried in tho sun, after which it is
ready for shlpmont.

A HARD-BOILED ROMANCE.
Cupid Puts In a Little Time Between
the Seasons.
Tlio following story comes from
Hazloton, Pa.:
"When Miss Emma Snyder of Lit-
tleton wrote her namo and address on
an egg which her father was shipping
to market sho confidently hoped that
a romance would bo hatched out in
duo season, and hor hope was not in
vain.
A friendship directly resulting from
this effort to poach on tho preserves
of Baltimoro girls has 'ripened into
love
"Tho egg also ripened in duo sea-
son, after which it was bi ought forth
In overdue season and served up at
a Baltimore restaurant table, soft-
boiled. "When ono Mr. Norwood, a commis-
sion man, discovered the egg along-
side his plate ho was only amused. 'If
ho declared, 'tho egg itself was as
fresh as tho young woman who wroto
that I'd eat it, but I guess not. Take
It back. But stay, let mo get that ad-
dress and I will see what I can do
"Then ho wrote to Miss Snyder and
asked her how sho could do such a
thing and at that time of the year.
"Miss Snydbr wroto back and tried
to lay it on the hen, and thus tho shell
of an acquaintance was broken and
Mr. Norwood crossed tho stato line to
shake hands with his unknown cor-
respondent. He found her good-looking, and
also ho found that her father was well-
to do. This he didn't wonder at. Any
man ought to be that could convert
bad eggs Into good monoy.
"Ho returned home. They continued
to correspond, and now they havo
been married.
"Mr. Norwood was supposed to bo
a confirmed bachelor; but what is a
poor man to do when even the hens
of Pennsylvania aro laying for him?"
Our Navy's Growth.
Admiral Taylor, chief of tho bureau
of navigation, says that tho Ameri-
can navy has grown to very respect-
able propoitlons, even If it is not the
largest in tho world.
"I remember," said tho admiral, in
making good his assertion, "that ono
day a friend introduced mo to a Con-
cago man. After commenting on the
fact that I was an ohlcer of tho gov-
ernment's sea-fighting establishment
he said: 'By tho way, where Is tho
American navy now?' I told him,
and it did not tako very long to do
It, either. Now If I were to attempt
to answer that question offhand I be-
llovo that I should mako an awful
botch of It. Tho American navy is
scattered to tho four quarters of tho
globo and It would tako mo two hours
to read a printed report detailing tho
location of all tho ships."
The Rum Omelet.
Farmer Hornihand: Hello, thero!
Well, if It hain't Si Smith! Blamed It

SI Smith: Ya'as, that's whut every-

"Original."
It Is related that n wit in Watcrvlllo
collcgo (now Colby), of tho cluss of
'45, ono morning read In the class-
room a sparkling essay. Prof. Martin
B. Andeison, aftci wards tho famed
professor of Rochester university,
Knowing or suspecting It to havo been
ribbed from somo public print, asked
as tho roador sat down: "Is that es
say orglnal, Mr. Jones?" Why, yes,

England's "Mysterious Island."
Ono of tho curiosities of Southern
England is the disappearing island of
Derwentwater lake. It rises in tho lake
at intervals of a few years and after a
whllo dlsappeais. Its height above tho
surface of tho wator Is not moro than
a few Inches, and Its area varies from
i fow square feet to two Inches. Tho
phenomenon is accounted for by tho
nature of the lake bottom, which Is of
peat, and the Island is really a blister-
llko uphcavel of tho bottom. Tho
months of July and August aro tho
time when the phenomenon Is most
likely to occur.

Ponn, a small village In Bucking-

entirely to Texas, but treated of the
entire territory between New Orleans
and San Antonio, which Includes tho
western part of Louisiana. His lecture
was beautifully Illustrated with steto-
optlcon views. Mr. McKInney predict-
ed that the coast country of the Gulf
ot Mexico would become one of tno
rich and densely populated areas of
tho great South from tho Influx of
Northerners now flocking In thero to
find new homes In a congenial cli-
mate. Tho substantial resources of
Texas and Louisiana wero explained,
tho agricultural products that thrive
In the prolific soil and tho nttiactive-
ness of tho climate. He dwelt at somo
length on tho production of rice
throuchout tho entire coast country, it
beintr ono of tho most remarkable
crops that Is now being developed In
tho South, from tho fact that Immense
incomes are derived from its produc-
tion annually.

A. T. Rltenour. owner of tho wood
yard at 125 East Cork street, Winches-
ter, Va., Bays: "Ever Blnco I had la
grippe I havo been a sufferer from-
kidney troubles, which mado them-
selves apparent In racking pains
through tho region of tho IddhoyB
and across tho small of my back. Tho
pains wero always sovero, and eomo-
tlraes so sharp and biting that they
compolled mo to take to my bed. Tho
kidney secretions furnished further
evldenco of disorders. They wore off -color,
irregular, and painful of pas-
sage. Added to this thero was an an-
noying weakness.
"Tho newspaper advertisements of
Doan's Kidney Pills attracted my at-
tention, and I procured a box of that
romody at Franek Baker & Sons'
drug Btoro. Tho relief I experienced
was magical. Tho pills lifted mo from
my bed of sickness, placed mo on my
feet, and mado me a well man. I
can work as well as ever. Doan's
Kidney Pills, I bollevo, saved my life. '
They aro a great remedy to stop kid-
noy troubles resulting from colds."
