Iio vus a handsome man, with a brown mustache, and a DOBO above it of the type aristocratic. Mr. Stapleton's family pride was cent cod iu this straight, firm nose, with the flexible nostrils which belonged to bis race, and bore thorn back, as it were, to tbo old country, in claiming rilationship with tbo English nobility. Mina Stapleton ban even desired to trace ♦be family nose when sho lauded ia Eng- land, but her brother had ridiculed tho iu- teution, wit l> a sullen acquiescence ensuing ou her pkih fur Miss Stapleton was uot to bo flnully laughed out ol any project. If t'uo nasal organ of the lords Buirowuo is a characteristic fealura, might not the Staple- tons also boast a fur more ornamental ap- pendage iu another quarter of the world? The Rhiuo flowed below tbo balcony, with that sweetness of tempermeut which ever receives more than it imparts: Rosy's portion was flowsni and bloom, and uiatarial for speculative interest in her tel- low-crentursB; at afforded by the citizens of Bale, in buuday attire, crossing the bridge; Miss Stapleton's portion, if the truth must ba told, in an adjacent rcom> tb* thorn pricks of alarm, suspicion, and anxiety to avert the possible consequences of thia unfortunate rencontre with people alio had plotted to avoids Of course Mm.

All this was as clear OR Alpine crystal to a CABUA! observer, and was quite capable of discerning deep mo. lives wore or loss liable to undermine society in the way Mr. Brownley pored over liis guide-book maps, although tho recreation was a sufficiently harmless one, and ho possessed no more power of man agement iu travel than a mouse, as Liis wifo frequently informed him.Rosy tripped out on the balcony again ; her neighbor was not there to bid her good morning. In nil her little world did any one approach the standard of Mr. Roger Stapleton ? Sho shook her golden bead, glancing Half wistfully at the- sparkling river. Sha could not reraeniber tbo timo procqBH furnished tho sauce piqnaute of their fete day: This bent, shriveled little woman, in a lace shawl and . brocaded gown, holding her velvet prayt r-book, had in her glance the quizaieal gleam of uno who had once belong'd to the world. Across tho sharp critic's range of vision palled Mirs Stuplutuu in block, cloudy draperies, with uu umber tinted ruso iu her IpH, and a groat coil of g«kl around her throat.

Tliefaet that bi* sister Janet managed rui-M things, which was apparent to a dis interested public, became dimly shadowed lurth to his own wind, seated ou the pretty balcony, because ho was disappointed nuil opt of sort*.

Had she not comeabroad suddenly because a matron with three blooming daughters had rented a cottage near tha liojuoBtcad for tbo summer? “ Check mate," said Miss Stapleton, promptlyi and sailed for Europe.

Silcuco reigned in their small siilun, broken only by tbo click of spoons and rattle of crockery; a quiet «ugges(ivo of some topic having been set aside only to be resumed later. Mr. Stapleton would have been amused had ho not also been irritated. Janet had been absurd enough to lose liar temper on learning that the Brownleys wore also slapping over Stimhiy ut I^H Trois Hois, and had declared, with amazing vehciuouco, that they fully intended to join her party in travel. The brother's reply had been unusually sharp ; perhaps the charm of Rosy on tho balcony in the twilight slid lingered iu hie mind. Why could not women b» pleasant with each other ? Silence had ensued of this ominous sort, Mixs Stapleton eating her toil gloomily, while her brother look refuge in sipping Lia coffee.Miss Staplctou's Iici\d ached after a roll would havo warned moht men of her humor; and, indeed, Koger disliked to see her disturbed.
