THE MYSTERY SOLVED. If all the visitors who were present on the opening night of the great art exhibi‘tion had been as constant in their afterattendance as was Mr. Horace Temple, the managers would have made money out of it. The fact was Mr. Temple had strolled fn rather listles:ly that first night, but before he had traversed many yards in his tour of inepecti.o his attention had been caught by a picture which had so fascinated him that he found it almost impossible to get hisown consent to move on and make way for others, and in a short time be was back again, gazing with rapt absorption. : The picture represented an Italian garden, where;beneath a dense shade of "palms and ilexes, a hammock wasswung, in which a lovely young girl, in a limp, white gown, was lying. at ease, her right hand dawdling with a great fan, and her Jeft hand thrown up behind her:head, revealing a beautiful arm.

The letter was in tle form of an invitation, and this was the reply to it: ' Dear Aunt Sarah—No one certainly has a kinder or more considerate female relative than Tam blessed with, and your delightful letter is one more proof of 'this truth.

THE MYSTERY SOLVED. If all the visitors who were present on the opening night of the great art exhibi‘tion had been as constant in their afterattendance as was Mr. Horace Temple, the managers would have made money out of it. The fact was Mr. Temple had strolled fn rather listles:ly that first night, but before he had traversed many yards in his tour of inepecti.o his attention had been caught by a picture which had so fascinated him that he found it almost impossible to get hisown consent to move on and make way for others, and in a short time be was back again, gazing with rapt absorption. : The picture represented an Italian garden, where;beneath a dense shade of "palms and ilexes, a hammock wasswung, in which a lovely young girl, in a limp, white gown, was lying. at ease, her right hand dawdling with a great fan, and her Jeft hand thrown up behind her:head, revealing a beautiful arm.

The letter was in tle form of an invitation, and this was the reply to it: ' Dear Aunt Sarah—No one certainly has a kinder or more considerate female relative than Tam blessed with, and your delightful letter is one more proof of 'this truth.
