“How are you feeling?” demanded Mrs, Banks, in the voice of one ad- dressing a deaf invalid. “I’m all right,” said Barber shortly. “That’s his pride," said Mrs. Church, mournfully; “he won’t own to it. He can’t remember anything. He pre- tends he doesn’t know me." Mrs. Bénks came in the next even- ing with her daughter, and condoled with the housekeeper on the affliction which had already been noised about Seabridge. Mrs. Church, who had accepted her as an ally, but with mental reservations, softly applied a hangkerchief to her eyes. If his own memory was defective; Mrs. Church’s was certainly redund-l ant.

After all, he ought to know What he wants.” “I never said a word about .it,” in- terposed Captam Barber, 1n a loud voxce. . “There’s his memory again,” said Mrs. Banks, in a low voice. “Poor dear,” sighed the other. “We'll look after your interests," said Mrs. Banks, with a benevylent smile. “Don’t you remember meeting me by the church the other night and telling me that you were going to marry Mrs. Church in October?” “No,” bawled the affrighted man. “Clean gone,” said Mrs Church, shaking her head; “it’s no use." “Not a bit,” said Mrs. Banks. “October seems rather early." said Mrs. Church, “especially as he is in mou_r_ning for his nephew.” “I never said October,” interrupted the_t_rembling mariner. “‘No, of course you don’t. It he said October, naturally October it ought to be, in the usual way," re- marked the other. To say that Captain Barber pricked up his ears at this, indicates but feebly his interest in the remark. He held his breath and looked wildly round the room as the two ladies, deftly ignoring him, made their arrangements for his future. “I don’t like to seem to hurry it,” sa§q_the housekeeper. “Who are you?” asked the sufferer, promptly. “He’ll get the better of it,” said Mrs. Banks, kindly, as her quondam foe wiped her eyes again. “If he don’t, you’d better marry before October.” “All right,” said Mrs. Banks, in- w. .'-.W - â€"accepted recruits proceed at once: to England 3.

IR is stated to clear the eyes and the [skin, and to cause a feeling of light~ ‘ness and buoyancy undreamt of by those who have never tried it. All ‘people, perhaps, are not affected ex- actly alike, and Captain Flower, while admitting the lightness, would have disdainfully contested any charge of buoyancy. Against this objection it' may be said that he was not a model patient, and had on several occasions wilfully taken steps to remove the feeling of lightness. It was over a fortnight since his reâ€" turn to London. The few shillings obtained for his watch had disappear. “You forget yourself, ma’am,” reâ€" turned her victim, with unconscious ambiguity, and, closing the door beâ€" hind her. returned to the parlor to try to think of some means of escaping from the position to which the in- ~mnuity of Captain Nibletts, aided by that of Mrs. Banks, had brought him. “I’m so sorry about your memory, Captain Barber,” said Mrs. Banks, as she prepared to depart. “I can underâ€" stand what a loss it is. My memory's a very good one. I never forget any- thing." “October's early,” said the old lady, bridling. - Mrs. Church looked up at her, and then mcdestly looked down again. “Why not a double wedding?" she asked, gently. Captain Barber’s voice was drowned in acclamations. Elizabeth kissed Mrs. Church, and then began to dis- cuss her own wardrobe. The owner of the house, the owner of the very chairs on which they were sitting, en- deavored in vain. to stop them on a point of order, and discovered to his mortification that a man without a memory is a man without influence. In twenty minutes it was all settled, and even ari approximate date fixed. There was a slight movement on the part of Elizabeth to obtain Captain Barber’s opinion upon that, but being reminded by her mother that he would forget all about it in half an hour’s time, she settled it without him. “Me and Frank thought of October," said Elizabeth, speaking for the first time. She looked at Captain Barber and then at her mother. It was the look of one offering to sell a casting vote. Mrs. Church seemed undecided, and Captain Barber, wiping the moisture from his brow, listened as one in a dream to a long discussion on the pos- sibilities of her wardrobe. Thrice he interrupted, and thrice the ladies, sus- pending ther conversation for .a mo- ment, eyed him with tender pity be- fore resuming it. dulgently. “What are you going to wear, my dear?” she added, turning to_t_he hguselgeeper.

He chose the night on which in the ordinary state of afl’airs the schooner should be lying alongside the wharf; and keeping a keen look-out for friends and foes both, made his Way to the Minories and down Tower Hill. He had pictured it as teeming with people he knew, and the bare street and closed warehouses, with a chance (locker or two slouching slowly along, struck him with an odd sense of dis- appointment. The place seemed changed. He hurried past the wharf; that too was deserted, and after a lov- ing peep at the spars of his schooner he drifted slowly across the road to the “Albion,” and, pushing the door a little way open, peeped cautiously in. The faces were all unfamiliar, and letting the door swing quietly back he walked on until he came to the “Town of Yarmouth." ed days before; rent was due and the cupboard was empty.
