In some sweet rural home.

-William Lyle

-' filo-'0 LATE.

“What can he mean? I don’t understand
it at all.” The speaker was e. tall, graceful
girl of about 20, with a clear cut, beautiful
face. grave, sweet eyes of deep hazel, a broad,
white brow, and waving brown hair. “What
can he mean?”

It was the twentieth time, at least, that
Florence Grahame had repeated these words
during the past fifteen minutes, and she was
no nearer the solution of the matter which
puzzled her than she had been before. Sud-
denly she arose from her seat by the window
of the pretty sitting room and went into the
room adjoining, where a little woman of 30
or thereabout, with large, round blue eyes
and fluffy yellow hair. was quietly sewing.

”Grace,” " she silid, addressing the little
woman before her, “please read this and
favor me with your opinion as to its mean-
ing. I must confess that it is entirely be-
yond my powers of comprehension.”

Grace, or Mrs. Harding, wasFlorence Grn~
hame’s sister and nine years her senior; but
being childish inndisposition she‘was accus-
tomed to defer to Florence and Charles Hard-
ing, her husband, in everything. It was
very seldom that she was consulted on a. sub-
ject of any importance, and consequently
she fully appreciated this opportuni’.’ of dis-
playing her wisdom. She took up the letter
which Florence had placed on the table at her
side, and this is what she read:

Miss Gunning-After the avowal you have
made, which, pardon me if I say I think might
have been made some time ago, with more justice
to me, 1-,ch donotliinghut release you ‘from an
engagement whichI am heartily sorry ever ex-
isted. Very truly, Joan Macoxmm.

“Well?” said Florence, impatiently.

“When did you i‘eeelve this exceedingly
strange epistlel"_ asked her sister.

“About twenty minutes ago, and I can as-
sure you that I am utterly unable to account
for its meaning."

“Haveyou quarreled?” asked Grace.

“No; there has not been the slightest dis-
agreement between us.”

“Florence. John Macomber is a sensible
man. He would not act inthis manner with-
out some cause.”

Little Mrs. Harding took up the letter again
and read it through. ' .

“What does he mean by saying that you
have made an avowali" she asked.

“That is just the question I was endeavor-
ing to answer when I asked for your. assist-
ance,” answ'ercd Florence. . .-

“Charlie ‘will’ understand it, I am sure,”
said Grace. “We will ask him when he
comes home this evening.”

 

 
 
 
 

 

 

 

“We will do nothing of the kind,” replied.

Florence. “Charlie’s ,power for discovering
the meanings of pmling epistles is doubtless
unlimited, but I have no desire to let every
one know that I have been jilted.” And
with these words she turned and walked to
the window on the opposite side of the room.

“Florencel”

“Well, Grace, what have I said to shock
you! iWas it my remark in reference to
Charlie?”

“It was not what you said about Charlie,"

answered Mrs. Harding, “though I am sorry

you will not allow me to tell him about this
letter, as I am sure he would understand it,”
she added with wifely pride. “I was sure
prised to hear you say that you had been
jiited.” ‘

“I suppose that is the correct word.”

“I don’t believe that you suppose anything
of the kind, and if you do you are very fool—
ish.”

“What else is there left for me to think?”
said Florence, turning suddenly. “He has
left me in a manner which justifies me in
thinking so.”

"Florence,” said Mrs. Harding, rising and
going over to her sister who was standing by
the window with troubled eyes and n. cold.
hard "expression on her face. “Florence,
don’t you think some one may have written
John Macomber a. letter in your name, ask-
ing him to release you from your engage-
meat?”

“It is just pomible,” said the girl slowly.

“It is more than possible; it is probable.
At least you should give him the benefit of
the doubt. I am certain that he loves you
devotedly, and he would not have deserted
you in this manner without some reason.”

“But who could have written him such "a
letter as you speak cf?”

“Some one who desired to separate you
two. Florence, in his letter John refers to
an avowal which he says you have made.
He certainly "ivould not have done so had he
not been under the impression that you had
niade it. That avowal caused him to write
this letter. You say that you have not writ-
ten to him; then it is clear some one else has
written in your name.”

“You are right, Grace. It is strange that
I did not think of that before. Some one has
endeavored to part us. and I fear has suc-
ceeded.”

“Why? You have only to show this note to
John, andall will be well.”

“A verygcasy method of settling the affair,
if it were jpuly; possible. Unfortunately Mr.
MacomberjleftEthe village this evening.”

‘ is unfortunate. Who told you?”

“The y who brought me this letter. I
thought when he handed it to me that it was
anote explaining the, suddenness of his de-

e.” _

“Perhaps he left his address with some of
his friends.”

“He has very few friends in the village,
and itisnot likely that he would have nc-
quainted any of them with is plans, leaving
hurriedly as he did.”

“Never mind. I am sure that you will
hear something from him soon.”

Mrs. Harding had gone back to her seat
and resumed her sewing. Presently she said,
cheerily:

“Florence, you must take your walk as
usual this evening. You must not think of
this affair too much, or when John comes
back he will find that you have lost all of
your color.” _ _

“He will never come back,” answered the
girl. “I feel it—I know it.”

She went slowly to her room, and taking a
photograph from a drawer looked at it ten-
derly and sadly. It wasthe face of a very
handsome man; and as her eyes dwelt on the
noble brow and proud mouth, sob after sob
shook her form, and she cried aloud in the

bitterness of pain:
“Ohl John, John, have you gone out of my
life forever?”
:1 e e a e :2:

Two years passed—years fraught with sor-
row for Florence Grahame. Death had come
into the Harding household and robbed it of
its stay and , support—Charles Harding.
Grace, overcome with grief, after her hus-
band’s death had fallen into a. decline, and
soon she, too, was gone, leaving Florence
alone. ‘ ‘

She was now employed as teacher to two
little girls, daughters of a Mr. Dcerhurst,
and her home was as pleasant as she could
reasonably have expected it to be.

Florence had neither heard from nor me:
John Macomber during the past two years,
but she had never ceased to hope that some
time in the future they would meet and all
would be explained. -

That hope had aided,
her sorrow and to go c "I _,
world to battle for herself. ‘

Today she was standing‘at the school room
window, looking out n n. the lawn below
with sad, wistful ey he were a. long,
flowing dress of so black material,
which fell in folds a e slender, grace-
ful figure. '

“Will my life neve

she said to? ma, as she descended the

“I amporry'.’ I am not in the mood
forsinging for strangers Iwonder if her
visitors will gemam many days?”

AS Sheknfired the'drawing room, which
was partiallyfllledwith visitors, Mrs. Deer-
hurst came forward and said in the soft,
sweet voice peculiar to her: .

“Miss Grahame, Mrerarston would be
pleased to hear you sing. She is very fond
of vocal music.”

“It will give me great pleasure to oblige
her,” replied Florence, going to the piano,
which stood open at the other end cf the
room.

In a few moments her wonderful voice was
filling the room with sweet, sad music.

Oh, fragrant breeze. oh. mul‘muring trccs.
Oh, waving, whispering lines,

Oh, there to be again with thee,

My love of olden times!

As the last low notes died away Florence
lifted her head and saw reflected in a mirror
before her the figure and face of John
Macombcr. With a co white to the very
lips she turned toward .. 1. Their eyes met
for an instant, and scarcely hccding Mrs.
Marston's murmured words of approbation,
she left the circle of visitors and fled to the
schoolroom; .

“At last!” she cried, her heart beating joy-
fully. “At-last Illave seen him and now all
will soon be your: ,

She felt that she would suffocate if she re-

. mained within-doors. and throwing a thin
shawl over her head she went out into the
deepening October twilight. All was silent
save for the rustling of the inlling leaves and
the occasional cry of a bird. . j '_, ' ' .

Florence walked on with bright eyes and
amuse”. .il‘nrniesesbsrncnurvsieim

 

 

FEE—shc'came suddenly upo'n'i emu 1mg
against a tree and looking moodily upon the
ground. It was John Macomber.

Hearing footsteps, he looked up and saw
Florence, his old love, standing before him,
the color coming and going in her face. His
heart gave a great bound and then seemed to
stand still. Lifting his hat, he said, coldly:

“Miss Grahame, I believe.”

“Yes,” said Florence; and then she added,
tremulousl y :

“Mr. Macomber, I am glad we have met,
for I have something to ask you.”

“If I can be of any service, pray command
me,” he answered.

“Will you have the kindness to explain
this letter, which I received from you two
years age?” > '

. “I think I can explain that note without
reading it, Miss Grahame.”

“I have never understood it,” said Flor-
encc.

“I was under the impression that its mean-
ing was very plain. In that note I intended
to convey the idea that in compliance with
your wish I released you from your engage-
ment to me.”

“In compliance with my wish!” she re-
peated. “Then Grace was right. You did
receive a letter which you supposed I had
written.”

“I certainly received a letter from you, in
which you'declarcd that you had never loved
me.”

“J ohn,” she cried, “I did not write that
lettcrl" ,

. “You did not write it?”

"No. I never saw it.”

“Florence Grahame, what do you mean?”

“I mean that the letter which you received
two years ago, and which you supposed was
written by me, was 0. forgcr 2”

“Who wrote it?”

“I do not know.”

John Macomber looked long and earnestly
into the face of the girl before him, and he
said to himself that truth lay in her eyes and
on her face.

“Then you were true i” he said slowly.

“Yes,” she answered; and when he turned
away without a word, forgetful of pride, for-
getful of everything except that she loved
him, she cried out, “Oh, John, you have
ceased to care for me 1”

“God only knows how. I love you I” he
said, with his face still turned away.

“Then why do you not speak to me?”

Slowly he turned his face, and its deadly
whiteness frightened her.

“Oh, my love,” she cried, “what is it?”

“Hush l” he said hoarsely. "I am :1 mar-
ricd inhale-

For a; while she looked at him in a dazed
manner, unable to realize what he meant;
then, as comprehension came to her, she
stretched out her hands and turned away
with a long, low cry that told of the death of
a life‘s bright hope,

For a. while neither spoke. How the man
longed to take the slender figure in his arms
and=murmur loving words of comfort. How
his heart uchcd to tell her of all the passion-
ate love and longing that filled him, and of
how dull and joylcss his life would be with-
out her.

But it could not be. Another woman stood
between them. Another woman claimed his
loving words and caresses, and he could only
stand there in silence, his heart breaking
with love and pity for the girl before him.

Presently Florence raised her head and
said in 0. low, stifled voice:

“601”

“Mypoor love!” he murmured tenderly.

“Go!" she repeated. “Go, Isayl" cndwith-
out a word he left hen—Waverley Magazine.

Invarlably Played “Yankee Doodle."

Last spring several members of the Ameri-
can Society of Holland, which is made up of
men whose ancestors came from that country,
made a tour of the Fatherland ill a body.
One of the New York members tells of an
interesting incident that occurred while the
society was abroad. The Hollanders felt
greatly flattered by the visit of their Ameri-
can cousins and gave them the freedom of
every town they visited. But the hositality
did not end here. They also gave them dine
ncrs, and formed processions which paraded
the streets in their honor, headed by a band
which invariably played “Yankee Doodle."
The Americans naturally wondered why they
played that tune instead of “America," and
one of them asked a Dutchman wb y it was.

“Why, that’s your national unthcm,’7 was
the reply.

The American was surprised at this ex-
hibition of ignorance on the part of his old
country cousin, - and hastened to set him
straight.

“Oh, no: that‘s not our national anthem.
‘Amcrica’ is the title of the song that has
that honor. ”

“ “America? ‘America?’ I never heard of
it. What is the tune?”

The American bummed the tune, and the
Dutchman exclaimed:

“Wliy,that’s ‘God Save the Quccn!’ If
the band was to play that in the streets here
it would be mobbed.”

Before returning to America the New‘
Yorker discovered that the enmity of 1101-
landers for anything that is English really
was the reason why “Yankee Doodle" was
substituted for "America.”—Ncw York
Press.

liIonitor Class of War Vessels.

Hundreds of others of dilIercnt types have
sprung up and disappeared, the designers of
each claiming in the last that the true system
hadbeen found. But the monitor class, all—
though ncglectcd for years, has never lost its
place as a factor among the ironclads of the
world. The question arises, l‘.’ by bus the
monitor been neglected! Is it because there
is an unwarranted doubt of her seagoing

qualities with which the misfortunes of the.

first monitor enshroudcd it? The loss of the:
vessel could not reasonably be a reflection
upon the safety of those that followed, for it
was designed for service in the inland waters.
Her construction, not unlike that of a New
York ferryboat, showed that; she was mani-
festly never intended by her designer to be
sent to sea. The structural weakness was in
the overhang; the deck being so arranged
that the beams rested on the hull proper, pro—
jecting some feet beyond, upon which the
plating was fastened. The sea striking under
this extension started the deck from the hull
and caused her loss.

Subsequent monitors have no overhang.
The iron bulls are built up to where the out-
side plating gocs on; then recede inboard to
the thickness of the plating, the latter resting
on this shoulder, flush With the outside hull,
which, being bent in to f 31111 the shoulder,
continues up inside the plating to the height
of the deck—J. J. Brice, lieutenant com-
mander U. S. N., in New York Times.

 

Race Horses Must Dc 'v‘atclicd.

As I said. no one knew my business, and
not a single man, except those ill the stable,
saw Knott work before the race, except on
one or two occasions. He has got a most 1K.-
culiar gait, and when lie is loufing along you
would think he was doing his level best. The
two occasions in which he worked openly be
was simply playing, and all the smart fel-
lows thought hc was breaking his neck.
They had about fifty “touts” at the track
watching him, and every one of them tele-
graphed back that he wasn’t worth 83.
When he won the Junior Champion every-
body who knew anything thought be bad a
“cinch” on the Futurity, and McLaughlin,
Murphy, Garrison and the rest, who had all
refused to ride him before, wanted toride
without pay. I knew it was the world
against Bryant and I had to watch my points.
There never was a trousuryvault guarded
like that colt was. Every night two men
slept in the stall with him, and one of them
had a pistol and the other a hatchet. I gave
them instructions to knock the first man’s
head off that stuck his nose in the stall, and
they would have done it.——O wncr Bryant in
Courier-Journal.

Doubtlcss it was only eccentricity, not
lunacy, that ailed the woman who sat oppo-
site me in a horse car. The front windows
were open, and on the platform were several
men, smoking. Of course this made the air
offensive, end this woman out where she had
to choke Wit-ll the fumes or stop breathing al-
together. Shc had a severe face and a deter-
minodmanncr. \thn she thrust her hand
savagely into a pocketI looked to secure-

spot. But the thing that she took out was a
respirator, 11. sort of adjustable bandage of
c101 ll, such as consumptivcs sometimes wear
over (heir mouths and nostrils in cold
brother, or when compelled to breathe bad
air. This she placed over her firmly set
moth and disdainful nose, and (hen defiantly
faced the open window with its inward

disability of all classes naturally Increases. Many
were at first rated too low, 111111 it often occurs

old system. The other books are proportion-

received for these books is invested in a sink-

Cases of Abscntmindedncss.

A good place to study absentmindcdness is
in a restaurant. Nearly all of them accumu-
late :1 little store of umbrellas, canes, gloves,
overcouts, wraps, hundkcl'chiefs, cycglasscs,
pocketbooks, latch keys, jewelry, hairpins,
mulls, parcels, hand bags, and in fact. every-
thing that is not fastened to customers by
nature or the tailor, or cannot follow them
out, like children and dogs. Men have bccn
, known, after ordering their meal, to fall into
5 fits of abstraction so deep that they got up,
i paid their bill and were about to walk out,
i till reminded that they had not eaten what
1 they bought. Others have eaten and passed
out forgetting to pay, though this kind of
% abstraction and the abstraction practiced by

When Small Change Is Wanted.

A man who rushes into a place hurriedly
and asks for small change for a bill is con-
sidered a blooming nuisance in all first class
commercial centers, and the inventor of the
patent cash register is hailed as a public
benefactor in these quarters. Why? W's-ll,
because it is impossible to open the drawer of
the register to get change unless a sale is
“rung up.” In consequence the applicant for
change is obliged to make :1 purchase before
he‘cun'bo accommodated. This helps trade
and creates a. good excuse to stave off the
people who want a. bill broken for nothing.—
Chicago Herald.

Largo Places of “'orsllip.

The largest Christian place of worship in
the world is the church of St. Peter‘s in
Rome, which has :1 capacity for a congrega-
tiod of 54,000 persons. The three next in
order of size are: Milan Cathedral, which
holds 3:3,000;ll$t. Paul‘s, Rome, which will
contain 32,000, and St. Paul’s, London, with
a capacity of 20,000. The space covered by
the buildings of St. Peter’s is said to be %0,-
000 square feet, or about five and a half Eng-
lish aches—Boston Budget.

A Town in Bucrgos Ayn-cs.

t is said that near Buenos Ayrcs a whole
town is being built as once, consisting of 800
houses, with a. town hall, postoffice, .court
house, library, theatre and church, several
hotels, oiiice buildings and restaurants, a
tramway line, and a system of sewers. The
new town is intended for Italians, of whom
great numbers emigrate to Buenos Ayres,
and, out of compliment to them, is to be
namcd Garibaldi—Public Opinion.

What Good Teeth Mean.

Good teeth mean—to a. certain extent—
good digestion, and consequently good health,
while bad teeth often mean the contrary.
!, Too many people force the stomach to do the
1 work that the teeth should have done, and
the much abused: long suffering stomach re-
bels at this new function thrust upon it, and
the most dangerous results follow as a natu-
ral consequence—National Stockman.
