By Maria Edgeworth. fperanldens PORTMAN came to London in the late years of the | eighteenth century to live for a time under the protection of i] Lady Delacour. Belinda was an orphan—young, pretty, innocent—whose de- signing aunt, Mrs. Stanhope, had put her in Lady Delacour’s care in hope of finding a suitable husband for the girl. Belinda knew nothing of those plans, nor that she w: be thrown at the head of every eligible bachelor whom ehe might chance to meet during the London season. Hence she entered with spirit into the myriad of gayeties planned by Lady Delacour, and soon found herself falling very much in love with | Clarence Hervey, a man-about-town with whom Lady Delacour was carry- ing on a mild flirtation. i z Belinda thought Hervey was more or less interested in herself. But one night at a masked ball she was, as she thought, . At the undecelved. And her eyes were all at once openes Maske to the way society at large regarded the efforgy of Mra. Stanhope to get her married. Unrecognizable in mask and domino, Belinda chanced to be standing near Hervey and several other men. ‘Phere is danger in a flirt of Mrs. Stanhope's training,” she heard Herven say. | “It was a clever idea of the Matchmaker General," observed another, “to send Belinda Portman to Lady Delacour. Last season her aunt was hawking her about everywhere.” “A man must bo a novice,” encered a third, “if he could be taken in by @ mece of Mra. Stanhope. “Do you not think,” went on Hervey, “that T see as plainly as any of you that Belinda is @ composition of art and affectation.” “Belinda at this point accidentally made known to them her identity. And, hastening to Lady Delacour, she begged with tears to be taken home at once. (Lady Delacour gave her such good natured consolation as the older woman's worldly ideas would permit, But Belinda never ‘forgot. ‘ ‘The gfrl tried to drown her own chagrin in helping to emooth out the tangle@ affairs of the Delacour family, Lady Delacour and her husband, at Neast,, loved each other, but the wife's flirtations and the husband’e heavy dri had caused a wide breach between them. Lady Delacour in speaking of hi husband's drunkenness once sald: 7 “Th eral of his lordship's intellect is a daily cere:nony. Belinda succeeded after a time in opening the eyes of each to the merits of the other and in lessening the flirtations and the drinking. She herself wes wretchedly unhappy. She loved Hervey, yet, after what she had heard him aay of her, she was forced by pride to treat him with the iciest stiffness. This coldness served to fan Hervey’s lukewarm affection for herself into a blase of love. Lady Delacour saw how matters stood. And while she was not at all in love with Hervey she chose to be bitterly Jealous and to make Belinda’s dife @ burden. | Belindi HAVE THE BOROUGHS NO SAY? \T BECOMES of the principle of independent and self governing boronghs when a Fusion Oommittes in Man- hettan coolly assigns candidates for borough presidencies sight end left with no suthority but its own?

The flag is @ot “theatrio,” nor do vaudeville, musical comedy and cabaret shows ‘wapply it with the setting and company it needs. The foolish habit of playing the national anthem and other pa- a triotic airs on trivial occasions and in incongruous places has already ; cheapened them that many people are ashamed to follow the good 5 ‘eld custom of rising to their feet when they hear them. It is time te make « strong protest against the way the Stars and Stripes and ‘the songs and sentiments that properly go therewith are being Turned Into cheap and tawdry shéw.material. .
