Assets, $38,000,000,
The Popularity of the Equitable Life Assurance Society,
indicated by the tact that for Eleven years its average an
nual New Uitsine.yj has been larger than that of any other
Company in thevorld. is due, in a great measure, to its well
known promptness in the payment of Death Claims, audits
rule never to take advantage of tftflmiYalitiP

Asa GUARANTEE of this,
nous intluenee of a technical

ABSOLUTELY INCONTESTABLE,
After the policy has been in force for three vears.
"The Eijiiitable Life lias paid since its organ
ization to January 1st. 1880, 51.882.736, and
closed its books upon that date without a con
tested or past due claim;'
The Equitable Life Assurance Society was the first to in
troduce the

And thereby to popularize life

By the late report of the Insurance Commissioner for the
states of Massachusetts and New York, the Equitable Life
Assurance Society shows the following strong points:
FIUST The Equitable has a larger ratio of assets to lia
l.litiesthan any of the leading companies.
SECOND The Equitable saved more of its income last year
than any other company.
THIRD The Equitable's death rate was less last year than
any other of the leading companies.
FOURTH The Equitable realize a higher rate of rent, or
interest, on real estate than any other company.

And Thillip answered : ''It would seem

There wa3 more in this than the mere
words, but jt escaped Dora. Ada, howev.
er, us she said "Yes," smiled softly. She
was always talking about it or tho absence
of it. It was a pleasure to her to infer that
Mr. Vane felt in sympathy with them with
her.
They saw much of him after that. He
was easily inagnetizud,althou!i the impres
sion was apt to wear off soon, and Ada had
magnatized him into a fit of energy. Ho
took a fresh departure in his profession
during those days, paintincr. more diligent
ly than lie had doco for years. In truth,
that was an eventful epoch in his art life.
The pictures lie painted then laid the foun
datiou for his future success.
Ada's secret ideal had always been a
man whose life should be dedicated to the
interpretation of beauty, to whom a sunset
should be of indefinitely greater impor
tance than a logarithm or a title-deed. The
men of l'ort Royal all gravitated either to
ward the law, like John, or toward science
and letters, like her father and Professor
Luce. Ada made no secret of her pleasure
in her new acquaintance. Dora liked him
too. John, to be sure, insisted that he was
a bit effeminate. But he was a lithe, ac
tive, strongly built young fellow, with a
manly air, in spite of Ins faultless features
and golden hair aud mustache. This blonde
delicacy contrasted peculiarly with a skin
so dark that it might be called olive, and
splendid large dark eyes. Moreover, his
tailor had done as much for him as Profes
sor Luce's had failed to do tor that gentle
man. So a month went by. Philip and
Ada went rowing almost every afternoon in
her little boat, exploring sunsets and
woods, and bringing home stacks of laurel.
The woods were bowers of laurel then.
"I should like to transfer some of this
loveliness to canvass," Philip said break
ing off a bough that hung down into the
water; "but I despair. It is maddening
that one has nothing more ethereal than
mud to work with."
"Mud? Oh, you mean your paints."
He laughed. "I mean my paints. How liter
al you are!" Then, as her face changed:
"I like it; I applaud it. You never let me
wander long off the track ; you are my
friendly Ariadne, as I told you the first
time I saw you. What is it? You smiled
in that same odd way then."
"I was only thinking No, I won't tell
you."
He was all curiosity now, teasing, insist
ing. "Ill must, then: It's something I've
always been ashamed ot, childishly, since I
hail nothing to do with it. But wasn't it
aggravating of my sponsors in baptism to
give me suca an outlandish name as Ari
adne?
"Rea'lv?"
'Really !"
He laughed. They both laughed. "So
you are undoubtedly she. The coincides
have it. It is chnrmiug! Ariadne! It
ha? such an unusual sound that one might
can you mar am: not teel that one was tak-
ing a liberty with jour Christian name. Do
you know! wish I might sometimes?"
"Very well, you may,"
Occasionally alter that he did so. And
the name hitherto detested, became music
to tier eyes.
"I wih you would paint this laurel," she
said, "this particular bough. Call it a sun
set study. It looks as though it had been
dipped in a rose-closed sunset."
'I should have to engage in a sharp tus
s!e with my Minotaur of laziness if I were
to paint that before it lades
She sat in the the stern of the boat hold
ing the laurel. "I wish you would," she
said, seriously. She was making his doinir
so a sort of test in her own niindi Ho saw
through her, and colored, but not from wi
noyance. lie was always pleased to inspire
a woman s interest. "I ll do my best," he
said, "since you ask it." In reply to which
she looked up to him with sinning, happy
eyes, itieeartli was transfigured tor her.
I hat was no longer Port Royal in tho dis
tiince; this no longer the placid stream she
had known all her life; it was a land of
romnuce; the same land. let us saw In
which the fabled Cretan maiden strayed
with her beautiful Greek aud listened to
Ins fleeting vows.
"It is all of a piece," Vane laughed tires
ently. "You Ariadne; this island you live
on; tiie laurel, quantities ot laurel grew
on aaxof.
"Rut Ariadne lived on Crete."
"At Naxos afterward Don't vou remem
Iht? It was there she parted from
Theseus."
"I had forgotten that bIic parted from
Theseus."
"Oh, certainly. She was not for 'the
false Athenian youth,' but for 'Bacchus
bright a god in place of moral."'
It suited Ada to compare Philip just
here to this latter personage; although
hailed from the modern Athens, ns it hap
pened. Rowing homo he sang an exquisite
Venetian gondola soug that filled her eyes
with tears.
Sho held out tho laurel branch at part
ing. "You have no time to lose," sho said.
"You had better take it."
"No. Y'ou keep it for me. I'll como
and skotch it to-morrow morning If you
will give it and mo houac-room. Shall wc
say 10 o'clock?"
But the next morning Philip met a friend,
who beguiled him into taking a stroll
nbout town, Tho clock struck noon, and
ho remembered his engagement und hur
ried to the college. lie found Ada's bright
face clouded for tho first time. "I beg ten
thousand pardons," ho began, his counte
nance kindling with eagerness, in tho way
Ada found so irrisistablo. "Have you thrown
awav tho thread, Ariadne?"
"Her brow cleared. "No. Ot course It
was business letters, It always is with
men. Those horrid business letters!"
"You know all a! out them, don't you?"
he rejoiued, neither affirming nor denying.
NEW SERIES-NO. 85.
Then ho niado a few marks with his pencil.
1 hen Dora came in and said ;
"The students are to havo a band here on
the campus to-night, and tho town are in
vited to stroll about in tho moonlight. Ada
I want you and Mr. Vane to dine with John
and me, and then we can all como back to
gether." Agreed. On their way back to Violet
Bank a stylish woman, unknown to our sis
ters, walking, however, with a Port Royal
acquaintance Mrs. Smith stopped with
an exclamation of surprise, and put out her
hand to Philip. Mrs. Smith then presented
Mrs. Forsyth, her guest, adding: "Mrs.
Forsyth wants to come up and see President
Field about her brother, who is in college.
Shall we find him ito morrow morning?"
Ada said yes, she thought so; and they
walked on.
"Mrs. Forsyth's stunning, Isn't she?" in
quired Philip. At which Ada was stupidly
displeased.
Somehow there was a lack in tho moon
light concert on the campus, aud Ada went
home less gay than she had been of late.
But Philip had promised to come tho next
morning, and when tho time camo she
proceeded to make herself lovely for him.
One of tho students had brought her some
fresh laurel, and she pinned bright bits of
it in her hair and at her throat, tihe should
always associate laurel now' with the
one person. Then she seated herself in a
deep window-seat. Steps came up tho
walk; stopped at the door; the bell rang.
Talk and laughter came into her through
the open window. That was surely Mrs.
Smith ; yes, aud that horrid Mrs. Forsyth
was with her, saying, "Mr. Vnne"--ahf
so Philip was there too, they had met on
tho way, no doubt "did you go to the
promenade concert last night?"
And Philip replied, carelessly, in his
delicious ityte-liko voice, "Yes, worse luck.
It was a stupid affair."
A mere passing speech; but Ada sprang
to her feet, and confronted her flaming
face and angry eyes in the mirror close
at hand. She pulled out the
laurel blossoms sho had adorned
herself with, aud stamped on them. She
hated them; she hated herself. A stupid
affair! And they had been together; and
when they parted ho had kissed the rose
sho gave him. Tho next moment her three
guests were announced, and she cooled
down as we all must on occasions. The
morning went by aimlessly. Phillip lin
gored a little behind Mrs. Forsyth, as she
was leaviug, to say, "I notice that our
laurel is beginning to be blown about tho
edges. Hardly worth while to attempt it,
is it?" And Ada answered, "No, it is
only worth throwing away." Then Phillip
followed in the wake of his stunning friend,
careless, charming, idle. His fit of work
was over for the present. Ada, for her
part, tossed away the laurel bough, with
icy fingers, and a silly head and a stupid
heart that ached in unison.
And actually that was the end of a tool-
ish dream that only lasted four weeks, af
ter all. A morning or so later Philip called
af. Violet bank to say good-by. Ada was
a:ain staying with her sister for a few days.
Mrs. Ray was indisposed a bad headache
so she could not sec him. She sent him
down, however, a cordial little pencilled
note of farewell, begging him to wait a
few moments for her sister's return. Ada
had gone out for a little while. Philip was
sincerely sorry not to see Mrs. Ray. It
seemed to him nw that he had always
preferred her to her sister; she was less
positive. He looked at his watch. Yes,
he would wait a while. He picked up a
book, but had not turned over a ouire bo-
fore Ada entered. I am inclined to" think
that it was Ada's fault, upon the whole.
that the meeting was cold and constrained.
But on parting Philip smiled a golden smilu
and said, "I am delighted to have seen von.
They told me you were out, but I wouldn't
be turned off. I insisted upon waiting till
you came in." To do him justice, this was
the way the case presented 'itself to him at
that moment.
"Ah, darling," Dora annotated to this.
flee minutes later, "I am glad you were in
time to sec Mr. Vane. I sent him word to
be sure to wait for you."
Our Ariadne seated herself by an oncn
window and looked out at the shifting wa
ter without replying. That shifting water
was to her still like life as inconstant.
A parting equivocation ! A very trifle, vet
still "tho little flaw within the lute." Then
she looked up at tho clear blue sky with
gathering tears. "I am glad there are
somo things that do not deceive, she
thought.
After this episode Ada was gentler, more
tolerant even of Professor Luce's clothes.
However he marked an era in his lito iust
here by purchasing anew suit. Ho also
put himself into the hands ot a barber:
perhaps some one suggested to Inm that his
hair was too long; not Ada, however, I
am positive. The result was marvelous.
It is incredible what an effect the outward
man has upon the interpretation of the in
ward man. But I am convinced that it
was for somo cause still deeper than this
that when Ada and he next met sho felt
that they had both undergone a transform
ing power. Trofessor Luce, for his part,
mentally and with contrition revoked thoso
harsh remarks I quoted abovo about pur
gatorial fires. Ada was once more tho girl
with whom he fell in lovo at first sight in
the good old-fashioned way.
I'eoplo thought it was a strange match.
Ho might bo brilliant, but ho was undeni
ably uncouth. However, Ada told Dora:
"lie moy not have tho outward making of
an ideal lover; bnt no one else has such a
