THE WEIL OF SAINT JOHN

There la plenty of room for two In here.

Within the steep tunnel of old gray jstono ;

And the well Is so dark, and the spring so clear,

It Is quite unsafe to go down alone. "

"Tt is perfectly safe, depend upon it.

For a girl who can count the steps, like mo;

And if ever I saw dear mother's bonnot.

It is there on she hill by the old ash-tree."

There is nobody but Bees Morgan's eow

Watching the dusk on the milk-white sea.

Tia the lime and the place for a life-long tow,

Sneh as I owe you, and yon owe me. "

-Oh, Willie, how can I, in this dark wen?

I shall drop the brown pitcher, if you let go ;

The long roof is murmuring like a sea-sholl.

Awl the shadows are shuddering to and ire

Tia the sound of the ebb in Newton Bay.

Quickens the spring as the tide grows less,

Even as true love flows alway

Counter the flood of the world's success. "

"There is no other way for lovo to flow ;

Whenever it springs in a woman's breast.

To the home of its own heart it must go,

And ran contrary to all the rest"

"Then nU the sweet eup of yonr hand, my love,

And pledge me your maiden faith thereon.

By the touch of the lettered stone above,

And the holy water of Saint Jonn.

"Oh, what shall I say? My heart drops low;

Mr Sneers are cold, and mynanatoonas.

Ia love to be measured by bandf ills so ?

And yon know that I love you without tnat.-

They stooped in the gleam of the faint light, over

The nrintof themselves on the itmpm Rioom

And she lifted her full palm toward her lover.

With her lips prepared for the words of doom.

Bnt the warm heart rose, and the cold heart fell.

And the pledge of her faith sprang, sweet ana

clear.

From a holier sonree than the old saint's well.

From the never-ebbins tide of love a tear.

The slender figure of Jerome Merlotte s

wife towered up like a fair Nemesis in the doorway; her face aglow with indignant

scorn, her blue eyes aflame with wratn, while one slender, jeweled finger pointed toward the dwarfed figure of a man who stood snrinkingly in the shadow of a tree not ton feet distant.

The man had a comely face, but his

form was ill-shaped, and he seemed to stand upright with difficulty. His dark eyes were handsome, the one redeeming

feature of the ill -shaped form, ana the floilow cheeks actually flushed under the sting of the pretty lady's hot words.

'Forgive me, Amy Mrs. Merlotte, " said

the man in a gentle voice. I meant no

of what might have been had not an accident rendered me a miserable deformity.

Amy was a self-willed beauty before she married Jerome Merlotte, and a six-month's residence in the woods had not tamed her proud spirit. She was proud of her beautf,

and inond of Her family name. The man

she married was well-to-do, a yonng lum

berman, who expected at no distant day to

win a fortune equal to that of his father-in

lav. Although city-bred. Amy gladly aa- j eompanied Jerome to the woods. j "It will only be for a little time," he said. "X shall ia the near future try and make it convenient to rear a house in one of the large towns on the lake." Amy loved her husb&nd, and she was not selfish enough to attempt to thwart his wishes. And thus we find her mistress of a home in the woods, not far from the scene of Jerome Merloito's lumbering operations. At tin time of our

story Jerome was absent on business, and was not expected to return under four sad twenty hours.

It was just after noon that Jonn Edson,

Jerome's scaler, had stepped in and aroused the indignation of Amy by speaking in terms not nattering to Oscar Bathmore, a gentleman from Chicago, who had been on intimato terms with the Merlottes for some

weeks, and in whom Amy was considerably interested.

Bathmore was a speculator, and had mnch to sav about comers in pine. He was

handsome, chatty, and withal most inter

eating and agreeable to the forest-imprisoned vounR wife. She had learned to en

ter his fascinating company immensely.

One word against the speculatorher husband's friend set the fires of indignation

burning in Amy Merlotte's heart at once.

A stiff breeze was blowing from the

west, and the air was t engly impregnated with resinous-smell' smoke. Several times during the afternoon Amy went to the door and looked forth. The smoke was drifting through the trees, and tilto-

oetfcflr the outlook was not pleasant. At

about 4 in the afternoon a horseman halted

at the door and called Mrs. Merlotte. "The openings is all afire," said the man

a rough raftsman, "and the old choppin's south of here's catchin' it. It'll be well enough for folks to look out, for it's power

ful dry just now." "The woods on fire?" cried Amy in alarm

"Yes, ma'am, they be. Where's yer man?"

"He went to Muskegon this morning. "Creation!"

Then the man gave vent to a low whistle,

He plucked at his bushy beard and seemed

in trouble.

"Taint safe here," he at length ejacu

lated. "Mebbe vou'd better go to some

neighbor's."

Then he spurred on before Amy could

Question him further.

To say that Amy Merlotte was troubled,

and alarmed, but faintly expresses her feelings at that moment She gassed up and down the road. The smoke was settling like a pall, and as the girl-wife bent her head to listen, a dull roar grcoted her ears the roar of swift-approaching fire! "My soul! what shall I do?" As if in answer to her question a mar. appeared suddenly before her a tall slender man, with midnight eyes and huge mustache. He lifted his hat and bowed gallantly. "Oh, Mr. Bathmore, I am so glad you have come!" exclaimed Amy, with a relieved feeling. "I ara always at your service, Mrs. MerIntte." He smoothed his mustache with

idlken white fingers, and stood, nntiit hand, as if awaiting orders.

' Tho woods aro on five; there is great .langor!" A pair of appeoliuK blue eyos wore upturned to the gaze of Oscar Bathmore. A sudden glint like rod flame shot into the man's black eyes. He dropped his caressing hand and bout quickly foreword. "Danger? Yes, plenty of it. The whole country is binning. You must ily from here at once." ho cried in low, eager toaon. ""Where to?" "T.Tp the road. I know of a safe plaos, if you will trust to nifi." "Tour judgment is superior to mine," she said. "I will do whatever yon think l'st." "Thanks. Is there money in the house?" "A little." "Get it, and anything else of value, and then come. Ko time is to bo lost. I tamo

on purpose to save you- I knew you would

be frightened." In rapid tones the man muttered the

words. Trusting him implicitly, ne:.t to her brave husband, Amy complied with his

orders, and soon had a small bundle galb

ered, and fastened with a stout cord. She eamo out then and closed the door. The roar of burning timber was plainly heard now. and to the south, toward Muskegon,

could be seen ihe rod glint of les.piug

flames. "Como if you would not perish." A hand clutched her own, and led her

swiftly away. She was fleeins from home in company with tho man whom John Ed

son, the cripple, had warned uer against. Less than half au hour after, a light veld-

cle drew up at the door of the lumberman's

house.

It was Jerome Merlotte, with singed beard, and scorched faoe. Hohndcomoto the rescue of his wife a little too late. He liiid hastened his return home when ho

learned of lho sudden outburst of fire ia the woods.

In the nioantirue, Amy and her compan

ion were far away .treading on au ill-donned road that led into tho depths of the green forest.

"The country is swampy along this road,

and here we will lie utterly safe from the

fire," said Bothmore.

Amy went on in confidence, until they

came to an old log shanty that stood on the edge of a deep gulch, the sides of which were almost perpendicular.

"A deserted shanty," explained the spec

ulator. Then ho left his charge and passed hi through the open door. When he came

forth he had two horses. "You will mount one of these," -proceeded Bathmore, "and, before morning, leave this region far behind." "I do not understand," hesitated Amy. "Is it necessary " "I will explain, my dear girl. I've known how it has been, all alone. We

have a good excuse for fleeing now. Your house is burned before this, and when

Merlotte returns he will imagine yen perished, and so never look for you."

The man laughed, while Amy regarded

him with suddenly paling cheeks.

"I planned it all nicely," ho said, with

his even, white teeth gleaming iu a smile "You ought to thank me for it.'.'

"Sir. I do not comprehend this lan

guage."

- "Oh, indeed! Dontpretent tint yon

"Scoundrel!"

With the one word the young wife shrank.

awav from this man with a shudder.

"Ha! do von repudiate the past.' What

were all these tender glances for if you do

not love me?" he demanded, sternly now, a

very devil of flume burning in his eyes.

"Mv ladv. no saueomishness now. You

must go with me." He grasped her arm.

She uttered a terrified scream an! broke

loose, fleeing in terror. He sprang after,

with a low imprecation. She sped beyond the shantv. He had placed himself be

tween the roadwav and Mrs. Merlotte- Her

onlv cbafice was toward the gulch. A lad.

der leaned againt the low roof of the deso

late shanty. Without thought Amy sped

to this and began to climb. Soon she

stood upon the flat shanty roof. When she

would draw up the ladder it was fast under the clutch of a strong hand. A dark face

leered up into hers, a gleam of teeth, and

the flash of demon eves terrified her. She

shrank back with a moan of mtenwe fear.

"I have vou now. Yon ran into a trap

nicelv ." hissed the treacherous Inend,

The next moment he bounded up the lad

der and stood beside the terrified Amy

upon the roof. His hand grasped her arm

and he dragged her foroibly to mm. ne

died in her throat. Silky fingers closed

about the white neck.

peacably or fare worse."

She was losing consciousness uiider his

clutch, and the horrors of her situation.

Dim liehls flashed on her brain. She did

not faint, however. A dark object, crawl

ing up the ladder attracted her attention

Hand over hand in paintui baste, movea the form, and when he gained the roof and confronted the twain, Amy recogniz-sd John

Edson.

"Scoundrel, release that lady!"

A crutch was lifted high above the head

of Oscar Bathmore. He saw his danger,

dodged, and sprang fiercely at the ungainly

cripple. The two closed in a desperate

strnecrle. rolling over and over on the

shanty roof. Crippled as he was, John Edson was no mntch for tho Chicago adventurer. Nevertheless the scaler clung to tho throat of his antagonist like grim death.

Amy Merlotte crouched with a gasp of

horror, and with clasped hands watched the terrible struggle. Her safety lay in the victory of the weak man over the strong.

She crouched there, pallid as UeittU, and

watched the unequal struggle. Ne-trer and nearer rolled thfc combatants to the edge of tho roof.

"I'll fix yon now." "It was a cry of triumph that burst from the lips of 06car Hathmoie. He was above the struggling cripple, and hole, a keen blade poised at his breast. A wild scream burst from Amy's lips. . "Coward!" It was the fiiii-gliug cry of ady:ngman.

With it the kniiV of tho assassin wm thrust

home. The next instant Oscar latumoro

stood upright on the edge of the roof gazing down into the the abyss below. He raised

his victim and flung him savagely away,

Hark! What cry was that? A wild scream of mortal terror. Even in death the crinnlo was to win. With a hut dying

b,teb his finocrs elosed over lho wrist of

his foe. It was a fatal clutch. With

feeling of honor the Chicago a venturer fait himnelf ierked violently forward, and

the next instant he followed his victim to the bottom of the gnleh! It was twehe hours later that Jerome Merlotte found his wife lying under a pitiless rain, on the shanty roof, still insensible. She recovered consciousness soon after and clasped her arms ebont her husband's neck and wept hysterioa :ly. "It was such a horrid dream." "Alas! it is no dream," returned Jerome. "Our house is in ashes, and but. for the rain, which has been fulling Binoe midnight, a vast ruin would have been wrdugatf"

When Jerome placed bis wife iu the

buggy to depart she begged him to stay.

"Look in lho gulch! It was all she could say then, and without

questioning her, Jerome want down the steep. In a little time he returned with a slight, crooked form" in his arms John Edson, and quite dead.

'He was the lightest, and I could not

bring them both," excliiinii'il the husband.

"The other is dead?" queried Amy's pullid

lips. Rhndderingly. -"Quite dead." Then Amy entered into

an explanation that was a horrible and startling revelation to the young husband,

who had trusted Oscar Bathmore implicitly. Over the dead scaler the young wife shed many bitter, remorseful town. "He was a hero, Jerome, and I shall never forgive myself for the wrong I did him," bewailed Amy. "Let him rest, dearest. Yes, John Edson was one of nature's noblemen, and this lesson, terrible as it is, will be a lasting one to us both I hope." And it was. Tho trage.ly of the gulch was long remembered, and tho noble monument above the remains of John Edson bears the simple inscription: "John Edson:" "One of the world's heroes." And this tells tho whole story. Chicago Ledyer.

,f()KKS OX TUK BO VS. His friends are telling a pretty good story on Mr, Spanlding, the head of the great sporting-goods house of Spaulding Bros., Chicago. The houfe probably sell more guns than any house in the West, though the head of it does not know half as mnch about, a gun as he does about a base-ball bat. He was up in the woods of Northern, Michigan last summer, with a party fishing and hunting, though he confined himself princi

pally to tho fishing. Some of the party

A FAIR TRIAL HI TBERE HAUTE.

The nineteenth ceil liry is snid lobe th age of skepticism, and ho perhaps it is at regards religion, but its praelieal spirit in

clines it to look fuviiably on everything that promises incraedtoto benefit, and it is always ready to -jive everything that seems woful a fair trial. The West especially has ever 1pon ox-en ami cordial to all new ideas, mid this mav liartiullv explain why

Athlophoros, the sovereign remedy for

rheumatism anl netralgia, lias secured

aneh a strong footing in Terro Haute. A

well-known citizen who has tho niont im

plicit feifh iu it is Mr. li. Fowler, the fur

niture dealer at So 30 JIam fitreet. Mr. Forstcr, when recently asked at his ware-

rooms as to tlio benelit ho had aenvea

from Athlophoros, rauwered as follows:

"Yes, I have used Athlophoros with the

very best satisfaction. I have had. neural

gia for many years, and could not liud any

medicine that would give me roliet until l commenced usirg Athlophoros, and lean tell vou I bad used about everything."

"How did vou first get confidence

enough in Athlcphoros to try it?"

"Well, it was mst in this way. l was

suffering very :nrtch at the time from my neuralgia. One Saturday evening Mr.

Mallette, a lnaiiuifieiureioi ww mnwww, who is iu busiuss:! in Chicago, and lives at Elgin, 111., came down to spend Sunday with me. Find: ng mo suffering as I was he said: . . " 'Get some .V.hlophoros. It is good; my wife used it and was cured of her neuralgia bv it.' "Without waiting for me to say much about it he went out and bought a bottle of tho lnedicimt. I took some that night and the next dav I wa as free from pain as if I had never tad neuralgia. I spent several hours in a .valk that Sunday ,with Mr. Mallette, which the dvy before would have been misery for ice. During the summer months I am never troubled with neuralgia, but if I should be again I would . certainly use AthlophoroK, for am fully convinced of its merits. "I have recommended -Athlophoros to several persons and have yet to leam of to instance where it did not accomplish its mission. Among others, I recommended it to Mrs. ltiekardfl, who lives in Casey, 111. I saw her in the city a few days ago and asked her if she had used it. She said that she had taken two bottles. It was helping her and sho said that she was going to get some mo:." Mrs. C. A. Airastromg, of No. 123 South

Second street, is another resident of lerre Haute, Ind., whom Athlophoros has cured. "I used it for neuralgia," she says, "and

it cured me. I had been troubled for about three, years with what seemed at times neuralgia", and theiu again rheumatism. I was never free from pain. The very first dose of Athlophoros I took gave me relief, and after using only two bottles my soreness is all cone and I nix-, -feelinc mueh stronger.

My daughter was also cured of neuralgia by it."

"MS, X can S8.V Aiuiopnoros ata everything for me," is' the daughter's statement. "I was so sick nilb neuralgia that I could not sit up, and suffered the greatest pain.

Mother sent mti a mur ootue or. Aiinopuu-
