1 did not refuse ; perhaps I did wrong in
taking it, but it certainly would have been a
greater wrong had I denied her wish. Feel-
ing, however, I was wrong in accepting the
purse, the only chance I saw to retrioye my.
self lay in making a return of same kind.
My store of wordly efiects was meagre, 'lmt
I had a ring which in her youth my mother
had worn. I It was a quaint device of EMIS-
can gold, curiously wrought, and of mar-
vellous beauty if not worth. She had given
it to me just before she died, as she laid her
band on my head and bade me be true to
myself and her. .
Take this, my son,” she had said, .“and
some day, when you have found a girl sweet
and good whom you may love even better
than you do me, give it to her and tell her
of me, and say that in heaven I will watch
over you both and wait for your coming. "
Surely I had found the “sweet, good girl,"
and I slipped the ring from my finger and
kissed it, then laid it in Mary's hand.
“It was mother's," I said. “ Wear it,
Mary, as the .seal of our betrothal; wear
it, and I know you will always think, of
me."
Then, spite of her tears and my heavy
heart, we both laughed a little, and resumed
our walk up the turnpike road. We spoke
never another word until the top of the hill
was reached, and the school-house frowned
upon us. Then I drew back, and reaching
out my hand, said,—
“Good-by, Mary."
I‘meant to be very calm, very self-posses-
sed ; tears were for women, I thought, loftily,
and repression for men ; and I looked down
on her trc bling little figure, vaguely out-
lined against the red background of the
schoolhouse-wall, then I looked down the
road—tho road we might never walk again-
and thought of all that had been and might
be, and my heart seemed to leap fall in my
throat and almost choked me ;‘ and then I
broke down entirely, and we were crying- in _
concert—and, well, I was but sixteen, and
she was younger.
The school-house bell clanged ominously,
and rang an, unconscious knell to our
friendship“: the moment of parting had
come.
“ Good-by, Bob," she said, softly.
inc, Bo .”
I beat and kissed her. I presume if Mr.
Nickelby Glasglow was looking, his sense of
prudence and propriety was outraged ; how-
ever, I kissed her not once but twice and
thrice, and then—
“Good-by, Bob."
“Good-by, Mary."
We had parted.
That was ten years ago, ten years of trial,
privation, and final reward. At the outset I
knew the world was against me, and that I
was against the world. But I was‘resolute,
presevcring, and above all, hopeful. There
was many a struggle, a long, long series .of
disappointmdiits—moments when hope was
all but vanquished I and despair supreme,
But I struggled on, determined to conquer,
not be conquered; and what is impossible to
youth, blessed with health, hope and ambi-
tion to succeed?
I cannot bring myself to believe that a
recital of struggles, temptation and final
achievement, however glowing, told by Ono’s
self is interesting to others ; therefore I shall ‘

that from the position of an office boy to a
legal firm I advanced to clerk, then to stu-
dent, aud finally to junior partnership. All
this was, of course, not accomplished as
easilyaswritten. There was many elapse
from the of goal ambition, many a. quiet
heart-ache, many a moment of complete
discouragement. But nothing, however
polling, was beneath my notice, nothing
however great, beyond my energy. From
“Bob" I rose to the dignity of “Robert,"
from that to the high estate of “young Hal— .
106k." and finally to the preéemirseglce of
”Robert Halleck, Esq. "; and ten y rs had.
gone by since the May afternoon when in
the shadow of the school-house wall I had
said farewell to Mary Thorn.
What of her, you ask? Well, to go back
again to the outset of my career, I was then
too miserable poor to indulge in the luxury
of regular meals, to say nothing of n. corms--
pondcnce. But finally I did write along
letter, telling of my battles and begging a,
reply. A month passed, but none came;
then I wrote again, again and again, but
each letter met with a similar fate. Finally,
in sheer despair, I wrote to Mr. Nickclby
Glasglow, assuring him in an apologetic sort :
of way that I knew he was anxious to hear
of my welfare, and finally concluding with
a postscript much longer than the letter
itself, in which I inquired the whereabouts ‘
and fate of little Mary Thorns.
Then I waited impatiently enough for his
reply, which came at. last, encased in a yel-

rising and retiring; the former cermony be

ratcd‘of late; the scholars were few, and
the pay irregular and small. Ho hinted
modestly that thé scholars, young and old—
a deep line under the last clause—were to
make him a substantial present at the close
of the term, and then referred vaguely to the
many years he had labored in behalf of
childhood, and the arduous labor that it was.
The letter ran on to a considerable length;
he told me the village butcher was dead, the
apothccary bankrupt, the little widow who
kept the millinery shop at the corner re-
married, and then—just as my patience had
reached the limit of endurance—my eye
caught the name of Mary Thoma.
“I am ve'r'y grieved," he wrote “to in-
form you that the Thames have gone I know
not whither, the cause thereof being the re-
cent reverses sustained by Mr. Thorns,
whereby his fortune was entirely consumed.
I know you willshare the regret I experienced
at their rembval; they were excellent people,
and Mr. Thorne's name was foremost in all
charities, of which the school fund was the
principal one.”
I tossed the letter away, and my heart and
thoughts went out to the little girl struggling,
perhaps, just as I was struggling, fighting
the same hard bottle. bearing the some heavy
burden, only with less strength than I. I
tried to find her, why, I do not know, unless
I fancied it would make both loads lighter
to feel the other near. But all was in vain,
and year glided into year, and the yearning
of my heart grew less, though my love never
did. I laid the silken purse with its floss
monogram "M. T." away, and laid with it
the sweet hopes and memories of the one
I felt was lost to me. Then I went back to
the battle of life again, fortified and de-
fiant. .
Yet never a speech did I make in crowded
court-room that it did not seem to me the
influence of-Mary Theme insensibly and in-
visibly afiected it. Never a book did I _ read

Ifdwith‘a doleful sort of cadence, and sharp-

ithis. the lights of the city shone with a brib-
IIBQOO undiminished, and occasionally above
the'sighing of the wind rose the echo of a
mgrry laugh, a broken ssng, or a strain of
music; then the wind was uppermost again.
The clock in the old Trinity was striking
twelve, I had passed into Broadway, bud
buttoned my coat tightly about me, and was
waiting for a cab to carry ‘me home. You
see I ride in cabs nowadays; they are one of
my favorite follies, and throw money into
a good channel of circulation. The last
chime from Trinity spire had died away, and
only the hum of the clauging bells remained.
I looked down the street in search of my
cab, and straightway looked back . «min, at
sound of a low voice at my elbow.
“I—I beg pardon, sir; but can you di-
rect me to the Bowery, please ?”
Looking down I saw the shrinking form
of a woinan leaning against the lamp-post at
my side.- The voice was low and inxpras-
sibly sweet, and' almost lost beneath the
shiiwl which covered the head and shoulders
a completely that only the white outline of
121! face was visible ; yet there was something
about either the face or the voice which
affiliated mo irresistibly. '
“The Bowery?” I repeated. “ I can
scarcely direct you, it is so very far from
here."
“How for, please i”
There was a mute appeal in the voice, and
it seemed for an instant to magnetizo me. I
caught a glimpse 'of bright, dark eyes
shining behind‘the shadow of the. shawl as
mechanically I replied,—
“ At least an hour's walk. Is there any-
thing I can do for you ?"
“No—yes—no; I must find the Bowery. .
“At this time of the night? It is very
cold, and there are many dangers.”
“Cold! What is cold when the brain is
aflame? What are the dangers to a. starving
wretch like me '1’"
She staggered back against the lamp-post
for support. _
“ Pardon me, sir, for speaking so, for
speaking at all; but I must find—”
The voice; died away entirely new, mud
was lost in a great, convulsive sob that shook
the little figure as the beating of the storm
does a. reed, and carried me back in my life
to the old turnpike road, with its arcade of
maples, and the little girl who was bidding
me by. A spirit of the lost one seemed
to pervade me, and placing my hand on the
shrinking figure I said,—
“ If you are in needI will assist you.”
“In need!" she repeated. “Oh, sir the
words are feeble; I am‘ starving sir! We are
starving—mother, the children and I at
home. I am no beggar, but we must have
relief, and if I could find the Bowqu would
part with this—his ring. ”
She slipped something from her finger,
g and at the same time the shawl dropped
i from her face. It was I who staggered back-
.1 ward now, and clung white and trembling to
9 her arm, forgetful of everything but the one
hepo that. possessed me. I did not speak—
in the moonlight 0. thread-like band of gold
whose quaint design I knew full well,—
“Here is the ring, sir; will you but it?
What will you give 2’"
' I caught her in my arms like a crazyman.
', “My love—my life—everything I have,
Z‘Mary !"
' The ring fell from her grasp, and she
sprang back with a scream of joy.
“Bob—Bob—O Bob l" '
And she was crying on my breast, just as
she had cried adozen years before, and just
us she will never cry again, God willing;
for she is mine now, all mine, for there was
a solemn and beautiful wedding next day,
and we are happy as the days are long,

i Gibraltar is constantly being strengthened,
both by new works and by improved guns
in place of the old ones. Acne-hundred
ton Armstrong breech loader was brought
there from Woolwich recently, and another
is expected before a great many days. From
about five thousand to six thousand men are
constantly employed there. At. present. the
force consists of four regiments of infantry
and one of, artillery, and as much vigilance
is displayed by the military as if a state of
war cxistedwith their easy going neighbors
of Spain. Between the possessions of the
two countries is apiece of flat, sandy soil,
about one thousand, five hundred yards in

to keep from lafiing, when she see pa look
at himself. The legs of the pants were so
tight, pa c'oulda’t‘ hardly breathe, and be
turned pale and and: ‘Henncry, your on
is a mighty sick man,’ and then am and
me both laughed, and he said we wanted
him to die so we could spend his life in-
surance in riotous livihg. '
“But when pa put on that condensed
shirt. ma shc laid down on the lounge and
fairly yelled, and I laughed till my side
ucbed. Ila got mover his head, and got
his hands in the sleeves, andlcouldn't get
it either way, and he couldn’t. see us
laugh, but. he could hear usfiaud he said:
“Its darned funny, ain't it, to have a pa—
rent swelled up this way. If I bust you
will both be sorry.’ Well, ma took Ilnldof
one side of the shirt and I took hold of
the other, and we pulled it on, and when
pa’s head came up through the collar
his face was fairly blue. Ma told him she
was afrad he would have a stroke of apo-
plexy before he got his clothes on, and I
guess palhougbt so too. He trisdloget'
lbe'collar on, but it wouldn’t go half way
round his neck, and he looked in the glass
and cried, be looked so. He sat down in
a chair and printed, he was suontof breath,
and the shirt and paints ripped, and pa
said there was no use living if he was go-
ing to be u riwd to a fat woman in the
sub-show. Just then I put the plug but
on pu’s bead, and it was so small it. Was
going in roll off, when pa tried to fit it on
his bend, and then he took it ofl and look-
ed inside of II. to see If it was his but, and
when he found his name in it be said,
‘Takc‘i‘taway. My heudisall wrong too."
Then he told me to go for the doctor
mighty quick.
I got the doctor and told him what we,
were trying to do with pa, and his said he
would finish the job. So the doc came in
and pa was on the lounge, and when the
doc saw him he said it was lucky he was
called just as he was, or we would have
called an undertaker. He put some
pounded ice on pu’s head the first thing,
ordered the shirt cut open, and we got
the pants off. Then he gave paan emetic.
and had his feet soaked, and pa said, 'Doc,
if you will bring meout of this I will
never drink another drop.’ The doc told
pa that his life was not worllfia button if
he ever drank again and left a half a pint
of sugar pills lobe fired into pa every five
minutes. Ma and me set up with pa all
day Sunday, and Monday morning I
home, and along about noon pa said he
felt as though he could get up. Well,you
never see a lickleder man than he was
when he found the swelling had gone
down so he could get his pants and shirt
on, and he says that doctor is the beat in
this town. . Ma‘seya I am a smart bpyand
pa has taken the pledge and we are all
right."

A Diamond Story.
Colored diamonds are supposed to be
manufacturer! nowadays for the unwary,
but I have heard of snow dmlgf',3ny8 ulct-r
lcr in the Boston Jou'rnal. A photograph-
or who bns had considerable experience
. in expert detective critics said In me: "We
have a new use for photography—the lost-
iug of precious stones. The business
began in this way: One day last year a
diamond expert. with quite a reputation in
the business was asked by a stranger to
buy a remarkably fine diamond. Eight
thousand dollars was asked for it. The
expert tested it in evi-ry manner known to
the business and examined it carefully
with a glass. It wash magnificent stone,
of superb color and shape. lle offered
$7,000, and the man took the money and
went away. , A day or two after that the
stone was shown its a great bargain to
some other experts, one of whom, after
txamiaing it closely for a long time, de-
clared there was something peculiar about
the wa‘a which the light came through
the stone. The owner. was advised to
take it to me and have tested by a ray of
sunlight sent through a camera. It was
brought to my studio with several other
diamonds, and whereas one diamond
would allow a beam bf light to pass clear
and straight, the seven thousand dollar
alone seemed to have something in it
,wbich stopped the beam. A powerful
mierowopc 'was brought. into play, and the
fine diamond was fouled to be Iwo stones
joined together with marvelous dexterity
by the aid of whatle known as- Canada
bubun, the material used by all Opticians
in joining two lenses. Zach stone was
wurlh about $1,250, and the loss on the
trausuc'iou was $4500. The stones came
apart upon the application of certain
chemicals." 4
A Turkish editor alive to exigencies of
the profession in udry and timely time
when there is nothing new or fir-eh under
the . on, has furuizbed the buZ'dIS with an
interesting account of the discovery of
Noah‘s Ark on Mount Ararat. Whether
it is three luindred cables in lenglh is a
matter of conjecture, as it is embedded in
a glacier, and the inaé‘r compartments are
impenetrable masses. of ice precluding
accurate measuremenfs; but it is made of
gopher wood apparciitly in accordance
will: the specifications given in Genesis,
and has unlimited dccommodaliona for
man and beast. It is also reported lobe
in an excellent slate of presentatim.
which is an interesting point [0 naval
constructors. What may beeppropriately
called the genesis of such a tale as this is
easily explained. The last traveler from
Armenia has repeated in Constantinople
the current belief of the natives at the
base of the mountaiuthat lbc Arkgis
there, and this has been enlarged upon in
the interest of enterprising journalism.
When Mr. Bryce made his wonderful as.
coal to the crest of Great Ararat a few
years ago, he found the Armenian villag-
ers on his return credulous on one point
aud'incrcdulous on the other.

their heads inlhe ice gorges of the menu.
tein, and they were convinced that uobod y
had gene, or ecuki ever go, to the top.
When he told them that be had been to
the summit and had seen nothing of the
Ark, they respectfully but firmly refused
to believe it. What would they have said
if be bad unfolded the modern theory
that Ararat as used in Genesis in a generic
word referring to amountaiuous range,
and has no specific connection with any
single summit ? -

A My Flowers.
BY JENNIE K. LUDLUM’.
The gray clouds hang like a. dreary pail
Over the fields, and woods, and sea,
While even the birds have a mouruful call,
And only these things, so fair and small,
Seem cheery at all to me,~
Three morning-glories so bright and fair, ,
That swing alone in the cold, damp air.
The sun has covered his face all day
Not dciguing even a single-peep,
The cold river-runs, silver and gray,
Between the meadows, away, away,
To rock the boats asleep.
And tearing the shells on the harbor-bar,
The tid'c flows steadily out afar.
Before my casement is one bright spot
To cheer the dreariness all away.
The rain is falling with splash and dot
But between my flowers I see it not.
They swing and flutter and droop and sway
These tiny blossoms that cheer me so ’
As they nod to me in a happy glow;
The night comes down in mist and rain,
Voiling the river and woods and sky ;
The winds sob wearily as in pain,
The birds are silent—Tie all in vain
For not at all care I ‘
While here at my window the flowers three
Arc nodding a cheery “good night” to me!
The tide of my life flows out with the day
The sands are few on the shore ; ' ’
With each wave a. grain is swept away.
The shells of memory break and sway
On the banks of the cold brown moor.
But the cheery sport is still there, I know,
For behind all clouds golden sunbeams glowl
So, let the nightfall dark as it will,
Why should I worry, pray?
Are not the flowers on memory’s hill
Untouched by the tides on the low moors still
As they nod and flutter and sway ? ,
The tide flows anti—mythic with the tide
But far on the heights the sunbeams hiddl It?

. Like Old Fractional Currency.
The New Postal Notes Ready to go on Their
Travels.
The new postal notes which were an
thorized by Congress will be used for the
first time by the public on September 3.
The notes are printed on pure linen
bank—note paper, chemically prepared in
such manner as not to be effected by the
action or acids and other reagents used
for removing inks.
' The amount for which the notes are
issued is punched out in dollars, dimes
and cents similar toarailroad ticket. The
paper is a lemon tint, and on the face is
printed; over the entire surface. an under
lying flat in golden brown ink.
In, size the notes are about the same as
the United States notes, but similar in
character In the old fractional currency.
The paper is water marked, and each
note contains the complete design of a
ribbon formed in shapc'of a figure 8. No
note contains the design intact, however.
as it is so arranged that parts only of each
design will appear on asingle note, and by
this means the exact position on the sheet
of paper can be determined if necessary.
Tune printinge are If. quired to complete
the note. The body of the note is covered
with miniature paalographic designs
containing the words, “United States pos
tal note, U. S. P. N.," repeated many
tunes and so small that at first it would
not be noticed, but each letter is perfect.
The upper part. of the underlying tint. un—
der the words “postal note" is composed
of winged wheels, with a halo running in
all directions.
The engraving and printing was done by
the Humor Lee Bank Note Company, who
had employed over 200 skilled artisans
dsy and night in making the notes requir-
e .
The sthcm will no doubt make a revolu
lion in the transmission of funds through
out the United States and make great
inroads on the money—orders now in use;
over 50 per cent, of which are now for
sums less than $5. The notes will prove
a great convenience to business firmsfiis
it does away with the trouble of procuring
a money-order. is made cheaper and fur-
nishes an easy method of mailing any
sum less than $5.
The notes have the advantage of bank
checks, and the paper being thin the
presence of money cannot be detected as
L is thecase with silver, bank-bills or post.
age-stamps.
The notes will fill the space vacated by
the discontinuance of the fractional cur-
rency, as these notes may be passed over
the counters at their face value for three
months from the last day of the month of
issue. '
The Dank‘Nou: Company is now engag-
ed in manufacturing an additional supply
of sevrral million uotes_lo supply future
orders.
The notes are received by Mr. Frank
Raymond, United States Postal Note
Agent, and Mr. A. G. Lalhrop, of the
Post-Office Money Order Department, who
have their offices in the works of the Bank
Note Company on Broadway at the corner
of Prince street. The premises are fire-
proof. It uquires a vauh fifteen feet
square to hold the notes required for the
first issue. ’
