country beyond, and sounds of traffic frond the town below.

" Prythee,. not so fast I" he said ; for she was quickening lier pace. "I have much, to say to you." " What can you hare to say to me ? I do not know you." " I nave as much to say to you as that Romeo in your ballad had to say to Giulietta, the night of their firat mooting. I don't ask you if yon know the story ?." " I have known it from my childhood— every word of it." 1 "They fell in love at fins* sight, bella Giulietta 1"

Still hastening, she looked away. " There are those who say that love so kindled is the only real love. Whais do you, think, dear doozclla ?" "I—l have never thought about it." " May I tell you what I think ? Nay, listen to me for an instant! I think that, somewhere or another in the wide world,, every human soul has its follow soul; and that these two—created for each other—too often spend their whole lives seeking,, wanderings yet never meeting. But when two such fellow souls ' do' meet, then they recognise one another on the instant—know that they belong to one another, at once and for ever ! That is the only heaven-born, love—that is love at first eight! And it waß so that Romeo and Giulietta fell in love I here in. V«rona, five hundred years ago. Their eyes met, and their souls were re» united." "But they were strangers, for all that 1 " Nay, tben. what is it, after all, to be strangers? What docs it mean ? It means want of sympathy, want of trust, want oi mutual knowledge. Are there not parents who, in this sense, are strangers to their own children ?-husbands and wives who live together half their lives, and remain strangers to the end ? But when the trust and the sympathy are immediate—when true souls meet, and recognise each other [at first sight—what then ? Now I deny Romeo and Giulietta were strangers; because they became lovers on the instant; and how can lovers be strangers ? Are you and I Rtrnnpers?"

"I think so." " And I think—not so. Am you not Giulietta, and am I not Romeo 2" The colour flew to her face. " Is that your name 1" she said. Then, drawing back mistrustfully :— "Ah, no! You jest. "Sou are not Romeo I" " Indeed Ido not jest. I am Romeo— for you ; if you will have it so l" They had just come to one of the open arches. Be pointed to the blue hills far away. '•Look," he said. "You have known all thin from yonr childhood—as.long as you can remember. Yet have you not sometimes felt as if your memory was older than your self—as if you had seen the sunset on those mountains long, long ago, in other times than ours ? And have you never met one whom you knew to be a stranger ; but whop nevertheless, you seemed to remember in some distant past? How can I seem to you as a stranger ? To me it seems that I lost you long ago, and have just found you again." They were now standing in the deep em~ brasure of the arch; the girl looking away; the man, with ardent eyes, bending passionately towards her. "I never heard any one talk as you talk," Bhe said, wonderingly. " Were you horn in that old house in the ViaCappello?" " I have lived there as long as I can re member anything," she replied ; " but I was not born there. I was born at Colognola, up in the hills yonder, among my father a people. My father and mother both died when 1 was a little child "| "And you have lived since then with: your uncle, who is a wheel-wright t" " How do you know that ? How do you know that I live in the Via Cappello ?" " One need not be a sorcerer to discover that," he an«werrcd. "Besides, where should la Giulietta live, if not iv the house of her forefathers ? But will ynu not let me see your ballad ? By whom uit supposed to be sung—by the lover or the lady ? What ! not one glimpse, fair Giulietta? You aro obdurate!" " Indeed, I cannot stay. Listen ! > the clocks are striking 1 It is already nine. "A moment longer I Does it seem strange to you that 1 dare to talk to you of love—l, who never saw you till to-day 1 To me, it is not ttrange. All my life long, I have been dreaming of the woman I could love. I have waited for her, till I was weary of waiting—l have sought for her, till I was weary of seeking. And now, now at last, dear Giulietta, my waiting is rewarded—my dreams have come true." He took her hand, and for a moment she letitrestin his betore she withdrew it. Truly no man had ever talked to her as this man talked I She listened, halt bewildered, halt trembling. She did not quite understand what he meent—whether he was talking of the present or the past; but only that he wa» talking of love. "Did that lady ask you to get her the flowers?" she asked, presently. " No—but she said to her sister that she wished for it. We sailors climb, you know, like cats; and to gather it was easy. 1 only wish the flowerg had been for you !" "And you understood her foreign tongue?" " Enough for that. I have sailed many seas, and eaten the bread of many nations. It would be strange if I had not picked up a few words here and there." He had sailed many seas ! A man whoso home was on the deep; bete to-day and gone to-morrow ! She knew a girl up at Colognola who married a sailor; and when they had been two months wedded, the sailor joined his ship and went away to sea. That was three years ago ; and to this day the girl knew not whether she was wife or widow. And Giulietta remembered how the village gossips sbook their heads, and vowed they had fore-told it; for your sailor, they said, is ever faithless 1 And this man with the grave voice, and the ardent eyes, and the sweet persuasive words, like spoken music. . . . would he not be faithless, like the rest ? The thought stung her with quick pain. But she said nothing; only her cheek paled a little as she stood with averted face, looking over towards the hills.

All at once she felt his breath upon her hand—the hand which held the key. She drew it back quickly. " No, cara," he said, " I was not going to kiss it. I would not so much as kiss the hem of your garment by stratagem. But what it the matter ?"

" • Cielo 1' Do you hear the clocks ? Another quarter gone, and the day's work all to do 1 What will Uncle Stefano cay to me when I take him the key ?" Cinderella herself never ran more swiftly when the clock struck twelve than La Giu lietta now ran down the Itime-worn steps and echoing corridors. If the sailor had not been as good at runuing as at climbing, he would have { found it a hard matter to keep up with her. In vain as he ran he en treated her not to mind about the key. She might leave it with him, and he would take care that old Citti had it safely when the travellers left.

But she only shook her head and ran the faster.

" When shall I see yon again ?" he asked as they traversed the last passage.

"Howcan I tell?"

" Will you go to market iv the morning ? Ah, no—l remember. There will be no market again till Thursday. V? ill you come here—to the Arena?"

" No, no—impossible^" "Perhaps you may be going to mass?" "To mass !—on a week-day morning ! Do you take me for a fine lady ?" Well, then to vespers! Surely you sometimes go to vespers ?"

" Sometimes—not often,

They had now reached " the little door " as it was called. It would have been a big door anywhere else. And now, because she was agitated and in haste, La Giulietta could not turn the key.

"Letme try," said the sailor. But the lock was obstinate; and the morn he tried it. the less it would open.

You will, go to veepers to-morrow, dear donzella?" he urged. "Say that you will! Where shall it be? At San Zenone ? Or is San Zenone too far from your home ? i You will not ? So !it turns at last!—shall I not take charge of the key ?" But the girl—besides that she had left her basket in the workshop, would not give up her trust. She had promised to leave the key in Uncle Stefano's hands, and that she must do, to the letter.

" Then it is Addio—but not for long !" he said, as he locked the door on the outside and gave her back the key.

She lifted her dark lashes ; gave him one shy, swift glance ; whispered " Addio," and was gone.

Then he stood looking after her, till she reached the fifth archway to the left, under which was her uncle's workshop. And neither he nor she observed how the driver of a passing vettura checked his horse to stare at them ; witnessed their parting ; and then—having a fare inside and a load of luggage_ on the roof—whipped on savagely, with rage in his heart and an oath between his teeth.

She had never said '• Addio" to 'Tonio Moretti with such a look as that.

Tho Sowing Machines mode by tho Singer Manufacturing Company are acknowledged by common consent to be by far the best Sewing Machines that mechanical ingenuity bat been able to produce. Although the Singer Sewing Machines are comparatively late in the Hold, yet the extraordinary demand for them during the past few years—as indicated by the successive annual salss—has obliged this enter prising company to increa "their Factories to an extont that seems almo Incredible. The iargest of their Factories is at Elizabeth, New Jersey. Here, the main buiidirg has 1100 feet frontage; Forging Shops, 700 feet; Foundry,6oo foot by 100 feet; Cabinet Shop, 200 feet; Packing Shops, 200 feet; The main building has four floors; the Cabinet and Packing Shops have each three floors. Kntiro works employs 3.500 men. Tho yard contains 6 miles railroad tracks. There aro also Factories at, or near, the City of Glasgow, and the dimensions of these worKB may be imagined, when we say that 2,500 hands here, as at the American works, find constant omploymont. The turn-out of Maohines alone U 100,00 every week, or, at the rate of 500.0(10 (half a million) for the curront year. The various parts and new accessories, needles, on, fro., &0., required for tho 3,500,000 Sewing Machines, whioh aro in uso all over the world - those demand special attention and much labour. A Staff of Skilled Mechanics and Sew ing Machine Export? is always employed for the solo purpose ot making every possible Mochdiiic.il Improvement on the Macbinea and accessories.
