Not only are the shades themselves of every conceivable color and design; one we have seen having the giobe itself represented upon it, every country distinctly marked with the degrees of latitude and longitude, but many are decorated with a hanzing of lace, and others have covers most elaborately constructed of tissue paper or silk and lace, with embroideries and ribbon flowers.

MONSIEUR, MY HUSBAND. “And you mean to tell me my brother pro- poses to marry Marie to @ Prussian?” Mile. Archaimbauit, the sister of the well-known Strasburg banker, was for once roused from her ordinary well-bred calm. Shespoke shrilly, and her dark eyes sparkled with rage. “Ido,” said the ugly little abbe, the great friend of the family, and confessor to Marle ‘Archaimbault and that beloved twin-brother, Alphonse, who was killed in the late Franco- German war. The abbe and Mlle. Archaimbault (who kept house for her widowed brother, now absent for the moment in Paris) were seated in the magnificent drawing-room of the Hotel Archaimbault in Strasburg. “TImpoasibie—preposterous! Marie,—the best match in the town,—who might marry a yi- comte at the very least,” and the aunt glanced complacently around at the tapestried walls, the heavy amber satin draperies, the massive gilt furniture and marqueterie cabinets arrayed as primly as the garden outside, where avenues, cut straightly as if by some sharp giant knife, ended in a statue or a fountain. “Marie—to marry a Prassian! My brother must be mad, or you”—turming sharply to the abbe—“‘are Jest- ing.” “I never felt less inclined to do so, mademol- selle.” And, indeed, the abbe’s wrinkled-ieather face was twisted into an expression of grave perplexity as he leaned his elbows on his knees, loosely clasping his thin hands, and staring vaguely at the huge rose boquets on the Au- busson carpet. He understood the letter he had that morning received from his friend, the banker, well. It was dated Paris, and commis- sioned the abbe to break the news of his con- sent to the pretensions for Marie’s hand of a young German officer, the son of a Berlin mll- Honaire. This the abbe. who had been par- tially in M. Archaimbault’s confidence, took to mean that the recent alarming failure of certain great Parisian bankers had so far imperilled the Strasburg house that failure would only be averted by this marriage. For Marle’s dof had been a temporary stop-gap, and the young Ger- man was more than ready to marry her without it; In fact, to make any arrangements M. Arch- aimbault pleased. e But the abbe did not understand tne banker's postscript. which assumed Marie's consent, and announced the arrival of M. le pretendu as im- mediate. ‘He wishes to have his first interview with Marie alone,” wrote M. Archaimbault. “Request my sister that it may be.” It was necessary for the abbe to break the Ice. The roses on the carpet did not help him. At last he blurted out: “This gentleman arrives to-day.” “Let him arrive.” Mlle. Archaimbault leaned back in her chair, fulded her arms lightly across her bosom, and looked—in the neat black dress she was still wearing as mourning, not only for the young nephew “murdered by the Prussians,” but for captured, subdued, enslaved Strasburg— as grim and forbidding as. prison portcullis. “Let him arrive. He will not see me. “No,” said the abbe, quaintly. “Your brother desires that he shall see Marie alone.” No shell thrown into the beautiful city when beleaguered by her victorious foes couid have produced a sharpgr effect. Mille. Archaimbault gasped, paled, choked, took up her tan, then dropped ft. and burst into tears. hat Is all right,” thought the abbe, cheer- “‘When once they begin to cry, they give in.” Then he gave her time to “‘haye her cry out,” and, walking to the window, gazed out where the town lay spread out around the proud cathedral, whose lofty spire seemed still stretching skyward—the beloved city, now all atches and props like some wounded human fee. But mademolselle wept on, and he came back into the stately room, thinking how much more unpleasant this was than his usual experiences of the hotel; the evenings spent playing plcquet with M. Archatmbault, and teaching the fair, beautiful Marle English. Lat- terly there had been more English and less pic- quet;for the banker,after losing game after game through inadvertence, would get up and go to his own room. and the abbe, after taking a few thoughtful pinches of snuff, would put away the cards and join Marie where she sat at work in the corner with her aunt They had nearly finished reading ‘‘Ivanhoe;” and to-day an un- known knight would appear. How little had they dreamed this! “Do you not think it would be better to think how we shall break the newsto Marie, instead of crying about it?” asked the abbe gently. Then as mademolselle incoherently murmured something about ‘the shock” and being “totally unnerved,” he rang a small silver hand-bell. The yellow sativ portieres were lifted, and, as ifby magio, a footman, in the fawn and crim- son Archaimbault livery, with heavy silver shoulder-knots and loops, spotless stockings and freshly powdered hair, stood there awaiting his orders. began the abbe; but the “Tell Mile. Marie— footman stepped aside with respectful obei- gance, and @ young girl came in, dressed in white with large bows of black ribbon. She was tall, fair, with serene blue eyes under arched brows, and a soft white skin—more like the Belgian mother who had died shortly after the birth of the twins, Marie and Alphonse, than like the French father and aunt, dark, wiry and determined. Perhaps the beautiful girl’s most potent charm was her graceful throat and neck, which deserved the epithet of “swan-like,” anciently bestowed upon the celebrated Matilda of Flanders. “Good morning,” she began pleasantly. Marie was always giad to see the good-natured, monkey-like face of the abbe, with those a whisps of hair which never would keep in the right place across his bald head. Then her welcoming expression changed to one of consternation. “Ma tante !”"—and she went quickly to her, kneeling down and exclaiming, ‘*Papa?” “Is perfectly well,” said the abbe drily, “your aunt has been crying—about you.” “About—me?” Marie looked perplexed. ‘ ay You have received a proposal of mar- riage. The aunt clasped her nilece’s hands, and averted her eyes. A smile flitted across Marie’s face—amused, incredulous—as a stray sanbearn flickers upon a wintry landscape. She had rarely smiled since her twin broth death. “But, mon pere, there is no one,” she said. In- deed they had led sectaded lives since the war— bel their terrible loss—at the Hotel Archaim- vault.

Archaimbault.” And feeling half-stunned, he hardly knew why, he led the trembling, weeping woman into the ad- Joining boudoir. After Marie had carefally closed the big doors upon them, and had the jere, she made a violent effort to com; herself for the coming interview. ‘‘Afon Dieu! what can it mean?” she first said, wildly, Reatics back her hatr from her burning forehead. How well she remembered the events of that awful day when her twin-brother—aimost one with herself—her beloved Alphonse—died! Me had been brought home to them, dying slowly of some injury to the spine, shortly after the capitulation, and they had endured the slow agony of watching him He insensible after day, hour after hour. it cruel time, when Strasburg lay fet- tered, the enemy's stro! foot upon her neck, dearer than ever to her children in her slavery! Each man, woman and child seemed to bear one link of her heavy chain around their hearts like crown of thorns, while they silently scorned and shunned their conquerers, and. heir lost nationality in secret. In mourning garb they thronged the churches, creeping thither through streets where they would be least of- fended by the sight of those ‘accursed Prus- sians.” And while the market-place was gay, the restaurants full of bright uniforms, the mill- tary bands qjashing out the latest German waltzes and quick-marches, not one citizen of Strasburg could be seen there. They were abasing themselves before the altars, and the little chapel of Our Lady of Sorrows in the cathe- dral was full of sad kneeling figures from early morning till late night. Here Marie came, here she fled in heranguish,when the doctor told them Alphonse’s lite was now an affair of hours. It was evening; while the flickering of the many votive tapers played upon te sad beautiful face of the Mater Dolorosa in the great picture above her altar, casting strange new expressions across the pained features, the kneeling crowd were In shadow. Marie could faintly distin- guish the outline of the Pieta in the corner of the chapel—the great image of Mary with the dead Christ in her lap. “She wept and prayed; and was rising to return to her watch beside the death bed when she sawa face gazing in upon her through an Seteare in the screen that divided the chapel from the cathedral nave. A man’s face, soft, tender; the eyes fixed upon her with such pity, such deep, yearning love, that instinctively she moved a step forward. Then she remembered, recoiled, and the face vanished. Was ita comforting vision? Some strange influence had passed into her soul: a Promise of consolation. Caimed, wondering she went through the darkness and out into the moonlight, unaware of a quick step that fol- lowed, till, the door shut behind her, a voice sald pleadingly, "Mademoiselle !” She started, turned. Heavens! she was face to face with a tall officer; the moonlight gleamed on the silver facings of his light-blue uniform. “Monsieur!” she cried with passionate anger. Then, drawing herself up she flashed one glance of hatred upon him and fled. That night Alphonse opened his eyes; he was consclous, he smiled upon them. Bending over him, she had heard him say those two words, “Karl Eichmann,” then he sighed, and his spirit went. All these things came back to her as she stood frresolute, looking at the card inscribed with that name. At last she nerved herself, and rang the bell. “Herr Karl Eichmann.” Quick footsteps crossed the floor, spurs clanked, a tall figure was there. She stood, her eyes fixed on the floor. “Mademoiselle !” ° “Ah!” A shiver, a shuddering sigh; all color left Marie's cheeks; her lips trembled. This was the man inthe pale blue uniform, and his face was the face she saw that night in the ca- thedral. Bewildered, she shrank back and stammered : had bet- ad} the belt Iexpected Herr He smiled. His large blue eyes looked be- nignant, though his huge moustache lent flerce- ness to his face. “Tam he,” hesald. “ You—but you—you spoke to me—and my brother—' “Did your brother tell you about me?” he erly asked. ‘onsieur, my brother is dead; but he once spoke that name to me.” “Then you do not know that it was I—that saw I let me tell you, mademoiselle,” he cried for Marle turned away; the sight of that hated uniform, the recollection of that night, sickened her. ‘Hear me! It was I that, fight- ing near to your brother, saw the fragments of @ shell strike his horse—saw it rear and throw him. These arms lifted him and carried him fromthe field, Yes. mademoiselle, his head rested here” (he struck his shoulder), “and if it had not been for me you would never have seen him again alive. I was powerless to save his Ife, but at least I can lay claim to having pro- longed it. Now, will you still turn away asif you could not bear to look at me?” “You were my brother's enemy—perha ps— even—ah! Icannot bear the thought.” She spoke in a hard choked voice. “Mademoiselle, I was his friend.” “How could you—a Prusslan—be my brother's friend?” She turned upon him in anger; more with herself—for in spite of the fact that this man was a foe hated with acherished hatred, the same curious influence affected her as in the cathedral. When she looked at that fine face with the frank large eyes and the bronzed, aquiline features, she was attracted, pleased, soothed. Vhy did you not tell me this, then, before?” “If you remember, mademoiselle, I tried to speak to you, but you would not hear me.” hat was not the way, that was not the here T take leave to differ from you. Iwas determined that no cne should hear the story of The abbe cleared his throat. “Yes, there ts,” he began. “Do not tell her. I canpot bear it. insult.” muttered her aunt. Marle glanced quickly from one to the other, then she compressed her lips. _“* Please tell me at once,” she said firmly. “ Whatever it is, I can bear it. I have known grief.” “I have had a letter from your father this morning, In which he desires me to inform you that he approves of a proposal made tor the honor ot an alliance with you by a young Ger- man.” The abbe repressed the contemptuous term “ Prussian” out of respect for the approved aspirant. Still, so strong was the Strasburgian hatred of their present rulers that he felt ashamed when he disclosed the Intelligence, aud could not bring himself to look Marie in the face. Therefore neither he nor Mile. Archaimbault, who sat, the image of despair, zing into vacancy, saw the beautiful blush, ne droop of the eyes, the happy smile that dwelt one moment upon the young girl’s face— one moment, for it was only a memory. Still the memory softened the “On!” with which she greeted the announcement. “* You perceive we have not quite killed her with our Intelligence,” remarked the abbe to the aunt, somewhat éatirically.” “The Idea is too preposterous for her to re- allze,” replied the lady indignantly. What!—that a German wishes to marry me? Does my father desire the alliance, mon afrald—I think he does, ma file.” at is this man—this German—like? “Well,” the abbe pansed, thinking pitifutly of the natural curiosity ot these daughters of Eva, a curtosity so strong that it seemed to smother their holiest natural impulses—“he {s, I sup- pose. tall,"—throwing up his arm—“ strong "— inflating his chest—“ferce,"—rolling his little pee &@ great moustache, red, red as 2. No, no. not red—fair!” cried Marte. Then, as her aunt and her confessor stared in aston- ishment, her head drooped, and a blush mantied even her fair throat with a tinge of pink. “And he is—an officer.” (“At least this will erouse her natural animosity toward her brother's slayers,” thought the abbe, himself growing almost annoyed by Marie’s unnatural demeanor.) Marie was silent. “And his name,” continued the abbe, almost sternly, “is Karl Eichmann.” “Cruelle You have killed her!” cried the aunt, terri Marie had risen to her feet, and holding her hands to her breast had staggered away. She leaned the wall. her eyes closed, pale with the @ corpee. “What have I d Mon Dieu! ebat have I done?” exclaimed the poor little abbe, wri iis hands, “I can assure yon, idea—how was Ito my good child, I hed no bs boat _ “You bave done nothing,” said Marie solemnly, opening her eyes, “How could you know?

She blushed violently. “How could you do that, monsieur, when you had never seen me?” “If I tell you all, will you listen? Mademoi- selle, Alphonse and I were friends in Paris, just before the war began. He was there, as you know, with his regiment—I to enjoy myself dur- ing my leave. How little we knew, when we used to talk of you, of the yawning gulf—the battlefleld—that would shortly divide us.” . “He spoke to you of me?” The tears welled into her eyes. He drew a little velvet case from his breast, reverently kissed it, and held it toward her. “Perhaps you recognize this?” “My portrait! The one I gave Alphonse.’ She was agitated. “Did he give it you? But no; how could he?” “When I carried him into the tent after the fatal moment he opened his eyes, recognized me, and, fecling feebly in his breast, drew out this, gave it me, and said one word—‘Marle!’ It was his last effort,” added the young man with emotion. ‘before he fell into that uncon- scious state from which he never recovered. ‘understood that he wished me to place this in your hands. “And—your name—was the last he sald.

He was pleased, he would r me your lettere—those sweet, innocent, girlish letters; he would have introduced me to you; but then came the fatal news—the declaration of war.- Private friends became public foes.” “Does my father know this?” murmured Ma- rie, behind the screen of her hands, 0.
