ear 3 fcRffi ; 'i f'm i . womans CHAPTER XVII Continued. 'Poor Brian. What a state to bo In. Don't shudder any more. The places I go, and the people I meet, only hurt my heart, A very effective hurt, too: for it teaches me to appreciate my own good fortune, and it makes me feel very regretful to sit here amid so much comfort and luxury, and remember the many victims ot the world's injustice. You could never imagine Brian, what passionate delight that poor little crippled girl took in the few flowers I carried her; and, while I watched her, I could not help thinking what a revelation a eight of Elmwood would be to her. I have been thinking of it ever sinoe, So many plans have filled my heart, but they are all impossible. I feel eo helpless and rebellious. Doctor, you are Bmiling. I don't think you quite enter into my reelings, ian you iiig rif!-a , .an nr; living on the proceeds of button holea. at a cent and a half apiece? Agnes' mother supports herself so. She is satisfied, she told me, when button holes are plenty. But now they are nob Hooks and eyes have taken their place. I told Nanny the other day that I liked hooks and eyes. Now I hate them, because I know they have taken bread from at least one woman's mouth. And she is not alone. I Joel that I have been living In a small corner of the earth up to this time, and I am only just awaking to real actual life. It is a sad revelation for me. I cannot tell you how many women I saw to-day, and how many others I heard of, who sing the Song of the Shirt from daylight to midnight to whom its heart-break and want are a living reality. How can we talk ot the demoralization of the lower classes? How can we preach to them? Shall we imitate the example of the man who gave a Bible when the starving woman asked for bread? We forget our souls when the body is hungry; at least, I should. But, it I were one of those women, wearing out my life for a pittanoe, I should not forget that the man for whom I starved lived in a palace, and enjoyed the luxuries purohased with my life-blood. The world admires such men, and calls them fortunate and successful, because they have made so mueh wealth in a few years; but I am very much afraid that, it I wore in their place, I should see a wan, hungry face on every dollar." "Isn't that rather severe, Mrs. Leigh?" Margaret did not meet Wilson's eye as she answered this question. "Perhaps it Is. I'm afraid I always express myself too strongly. These things appeal to me so forcibly, and when I feel, I feel Intensely." "Then take my advice and don't go among them," observed Brian, practical!-. "It is not true nhilosoDhv to seek out the dark side of life, this Is not home, and you cannot be sure into what sort ot places your wanderings may taite you, or what undol onaracters you may meet." Margaret was thoughtful a moment. "I do not change noon much refine ment and elegance," she said presently; "but that does not affect me in any way. I feel that I could take the hand of the worst creature on earth and not be low ered. You know I have a prejudice against those people whose excessive goodness shrinks from contact with others not always so much worie, only more unfortunate than themselves. They are the Pharisees, who thank God they are not as their neighbors are. Suppose we should imitate them. I like to see the picture of the woman clinging to the eross, and I confess I find it inspiring; but at the same time, I cannot help thinking that the woman who holds out her band to an unfortunate sister is more helpful and more noble. If the world thinks otherwise I disagree with it. Don't draw down your lips In that pathetic way, Brian. This isn't a sermon. I sha'nt say another word. " Margaret settled back in her chair, with an air of determination that rather amused Wilson. "I am on your side of the question," he replied, with a smile. "So is Brian, if he chooses to admit as much." I'm incapable of any admission just now, put in Brian. I am wholly lost in admiration of Margaret's facility for disposing of all opinions not her own, and marching on to victory. he has a way of bringing Out her closing remarks, which says quite decidedly 'There, tha-;'s final. Dispute if you dare!' It is useless to say 'Oh, Brian!' Margaret. ihf fact is true, xou have a most astonishing tenacity for your own ideas. xou can out-argue the greatest logician on ;arth. Out-talk him, I should say." 'Thanks for the correction. Your distinction lis delicate, but obvious. It would be too much, I am sure, for any man to give a woman credit for an ability to argue. I wonder what poor men will do, when they are forced to recognize woman's mental equality. remaps even then they will continue to ind alge In witty satire, at her expense. we forgive them. To lecture us affords them innocent amusement, and they really haven't the grace to echo Charlotte Bronte's prayer: 'When I have nothing to say, may the Lord give me grace to be silent.' " 1 You have us Quite defenseless. Mrs. Leigh. Brian has not a word to say, and I am but little better. How are we to find consolation for your unflattering opinion?" "You would not be a true man, Doc tor, if jou did not And it within your self. I have often thought that you are the natural follower of Descartes. Theoretically and practically you find the ego all sufficient " "Worse and worse," laughed Wilson, "Aid Brian rejoices in my discomfiture. Shall I regret being a man?" Joy no means, returned Margaret. It is the next best thing to being a woman. You have the easier side of life, too. We have the hard or. The lion's share of suffering falls on us, and we must see our duty under the most painful circumstances. A man may be blind. Indeed, he usually is blind when he wants to be; but it would be quite rer reben sible for a woman to pretend defective vision in similar circumstances. So there in some consolation for you. Am I driving you away, Dootor?" "By no means," rejoined Wilson, who had risen at her question, and now stood looking down upon her with a quizzinal i ugnt in ms eyes, "i am only sorry l can not sit longer; but your sweeping accusation against the convenient blindpens of men reminds me that I have a patient waiting for me down the street; anil as that is a duty to which I cm not be blind. I shall have to sny good-night. I admit there is much justice in your remark. Nevertheless, I hope that time may improve your opinion of us poor men. Brian, any moments you have to Bpiire, remember and pity my lonely fctate." "You don't deserve pity on that score," rejoined Brian, promptly. "You know thu remedy and refuse to apply it. " Wilson laughod in answor, and saying "Good-night," be left them. CHAPTER XVIII. A IK rEfJM TBTB OI.D LIFE.

store of news and gosmip, to carry nor back to hor homo uinl let her feel, in imagination at least, eomelliing of its Old pleasures and interests. Changes In a small place are always more significant and of more general interest than ihose in a groat city, where the identity of the individual is lost in the great labyrinth of humanity, and Margaret, whose nlTeetion absence had only inureaeed, took a keen delight in hearing not only ot the friends .she had loft but of even the li(jhtost. occurrence about Klmwood mi 1 its surroundings, and, In return, Bertie wanted to hear nbout herself. "This eity ar has nut brought the roses to your cheeks," lie snid. "I liopo you haven't developed such a fondness for it that you will Ijo uorry to conio back to us." "Never, Bertie; my mln 1 oan nevor even imagine such a possibility. In tho first place, I don't like New York, I I BOtually hate it, though I shouldn't tell anyone but you; and, in tho second place, I lovo Elmwoo.l dearly. Then there are things 1 onjuy there which I cannot have hero; my rides, for ouo thing. Occasionally 1 havo a ride in the park, but it isn't the same as at home. Here one must go at a certain gait, and people ride awkwardly, too, I think. I suppose it is the fashionable way, but it isn't half so graceful, to seo them pounding theirjsnddleaono might say. It really tries nioTb'look at them. The park Is beautiful, though. New York may well bo proud of it. I havo been around a croat deal. Brian takes me everywhere, and I usually enjoy tho places we visit." "AndBrian," questioned Bertie, meeting hor eye. Her head drooped slightly. Bertie saw the action. Ho left his chair and oame to her. "Tell me, Margaret," ho said, placing his hand upon her shoulder, "it isn't so hard for you to answor?" "Xo," she replied in a low voice, "it should not be so hard now. My heart has ached, oh, so terribly, and I have been hopeless and despairing, because I was alone so helplessly alone. Ah, I know what you would say. I havo friends. Yes, such truo friends. Do you think I over doubted them, Bertie? But you can understand that there aro sorrows which none can share. Lately I have been more encouraged. He has left mo so little, but last night he was later than uBual, and to-night he is not here at all." Her head drooped still lower and his hand fell until It rested on hers with a gentle, reassuring sympathy in its touoh. "All may be right," he said with an effort at consolation. "Perhaps," she answered. "I con only hope, and if it should nut be, tho disappointment will bo so bitter. Lat night he did not seem perfectly himself. I tried to believe I imagined it, but I am afraid l showed something in my actions). I tried so hard, too so hard not to let him see." "Why should you have tried?" cried Bertie, pressing his lips hard. "Why Bhould you consider him? You have feelings, too. Must they always be outraged?" Margaret raised her eyes at this strong expression of his thoughts. "I think women can't consider their feelings, Bertio," she returned, with a sigh. "It seems to mo that, no matter how hard or how bitter it may be, they can never get beyond tho range of duty. I think we grow to be hypocrites in a way. We are so oner, obliged to hide our hearts. I know I have often smiled my brightest when my eyes wore burning with tear I held back. I suppose the baptism ot sorrow must touch us all, and I only hope that it may wash out ail that should not be in my lifo, and make me braver and stronger for what is to come. Are you leaving mo, Bertie? I'm afraid you find mo very doleful." "I leave you, Margaret, to find him. I cannot bear to sit here and hear you talk and There; I'll net like a baby next. Margaret, you are a dear, bravo girl. Long ago, when "Before you thought I should grow Into such a sedate young woman," Interrupted Margaret, hastily. "We used to fight gloriously in those days, didn't we? Uncle fannied I should always be a tomboy. I wonder If he would recognize me now?" She finished with a sigh, and the light words had held such deep meaning that Bertie found it hard to meet the eyes i sho raised so bravely to his. "So long ago?" ho said, half absently. "Not quite six years since I first saw ; you. I remember tho. day bo perfectly. ' You were just home from college, and you had two cats tied together by the tails. I thought you such a cruel boy. Well, you want to go? I shall seo you again, sha'n't I? You are like a breath from Elmwood, Bertie." "You will see mo again, and soon, Margaret. Now look mo in the faoe and promiso me that the day shall never come when you will cense to regard mo as a brother. There; good-night; your tears pain mo. God forgive Brian; I cannot." Once upon the street Bertie walked along, absorbed in thought. This brief visit to Margaret had entirely unnerved him, and ho seemed wholly incapable of any practical decision. When lie arrived in front of the Hoffman House he ran across Wilson, and feelincr rather glad of this ohance enoounter he greeted him warmly. "This is really the first moment I could call my own to-day," declared Wilson, taking a cigar from the case Bertie offored him. "Where Is your destination?" I waB just trying to decide," was Bertie's answer. "I dropped in to seo Margaret, and I haven't recovered from the shook her appearance gave me yet. I never saw her look more wretched and ill, though I am inclined to think the cause is not entirely physical." "No. Other influences at work. How die you leave her?" "Alone," was the sententious reply. "Alone," repeated Wilson. "Then, Brian ?" "Is off disgracing himself," responded Bertio with much anger. "He ought to bo thrashed. ' Wilson's faco grow very grave. "I had hoped things might be better," he said, with a sigh. "They will never be better. I believe Brian has lost his last grain of manhood. He is worse Hum n coward. If ho had a heartioss, selfish wife there might be somo reason, though never un excuse for his notions. But now there is absolutely nothing that one can say tor mm. He is simply breaking Mar- i goret's heart. If you had seen her a year ago you could realize what a : change these last months have wrought ; In her. It is his doing; ail his doing. After she has left her home, her friends, ; and all she loves, for his ake. My ; hoart swells with Indignation at tii'o ! thought. I know how she loves Elmwood, and dislikes New York. Yet after all this, she'll continue to talk of duty. Women are enigmas; I give ' them up. I'd like to thrash liiiiin, I though. It might possibly do him ' good." "I can't understand him," remarked Wilson, half absently. ! "No, nor oan any ono else. He doesn't seem worth the understanding. I'll : have to find him somehow, and send ; him home. I can't, boar the thought of Margaret waiting in such anxious dn-iul, i not knowing whether lie is tumbling ! about In the guttor or disgracing himself In some other way. Are wo at; your ! quarters already? How fust wo must : have walked! No; I can't conic in to- J night. Home other time, old fellow. ! I'll have to make tho reund of the club ' houses, I dare say. Well, good-night." Bertio did not find Brian, as he had I expected, in any of his probable haunts, though he went to them all, anxiously examined tho eon of facca, and even ! questioned the waiters and attendants. ' ltather dishoartened after this vain i

eeareli7l5e scarcely knew whore to go next. In his dilemma, he was in the net of turning u street corner when tho full glare of the street lamps falling upon a figure ir front of him revealed something very familiar in its outlines. "Brian," lie said, under his breath. Y'cr, Brian walking with the uncertain gait that only confirmed his fears. He thought of Margaret, and angry indignation overpowered him; but this samo thought brought: another, and under its impulse he mni.ajod to control himself. With a few h.isty stride- he was by Brian's side, and, placing his hand rather heavily upon his shoulder, he askd, roughly "Where aro you going? fomo home?'' "Home?" repeated Brian, startled iut understanding and shrinking under Bertie's glance. "Home to fac:' her? NOvor. A few days u :o I promised her I would not t uch another drop. Ves, promised. A farce. Wasn't It? Solemnly promised. You see me to-night. io home, you say. Go homo to see her shrink from in s! To see her blush for me! To see Ah, hcavons, no!" Tlioso words made no impression on Bertio. "Don't add villainy to cowardieo," ho said, with flashing eyes. "Gome, I say. If you have ut solf-respoet, remember her. .nd have at least the decency to hide your disgrace tinder your own roof. You ehall not areak her heart ; you shall not ruin her 11 'e. I'll shoot you first." "liuin her li 'o," echoed Brian, burying his face in his hands. "My Cod, I did not intend to miu her life." Bertio said no more. Pcrj'spu oven ho felt 2e pity lor' Brian's evident agony, or perhaps he feared that wor.ls now won Id express too much of the anger which burned within him. There are men who tan never understand tho depths to which others can fall. Quito silent he walked by Brian, and only loft him when the door had closed upon him. From her own room Margaret heard the faltering step, and knew that Brian had come, but even the gre;tt rt lief of this knowledge did not bring her sleep. All night sho tossed restlessly, her mind a prey to miserable doubts and hopoless longings, and when morning came her face told its own story. TO B CON3INUED.

Tilt) GrpatORt Compliment, One wot, foggy, muddy day, a little girl was standing on one side of a streot in London, waiting for an opportunity to oross over. Those who havo seen London streets on such a day, with tlwir wet aud mud, rnd have watcher the rush of cabs, hansoms, omnibuses, and carriages, will not wonder t iat a littlo girl should bo afraid to try to mako her way through such a babel as that. So she walked up and down, and looked i:ito the faces of t hose who passed by. Some looked careless, sonic harsh, some were in haste, and she did ;.iot find the one she sought, until at length au aged man, rather tall r nd spare, and of grave yet kindly aspect, came walking down the street. Looking In his face, she seemed to see in him the ono for whom sho had boen waiting, and sho went up to him and whispered timidly "Please, si-, will you help me over?" The old man saw the little girl safely across the street, and when ho afterward told the story, lie said: "That little girl' trust was the greatest compliment I ever had in my life." That man was Lord Shaftesbury. He received honors at the hands of a mighty nation; he was complimented with the freedom of the greatest city on the globe; he received the honors conferred by royalty: but the greatest compliment he ever had in Ids life was when that littlo unknown girl singled iiiru out in the jostling crowd of a London street, and dared to trust hiu:, stranger though he was, to protect a ad assist her. ftuytug Ruun. The Crown Prince of Denmark is the idol of the army. One day when the autumn military maneuvers were proceeding, the Danish army was encamped near the old Castle of liald, in Jutland. The Crown Prince was in command, and walking about in camp after the active duties of the day were over, he found a crowd of soldiers gathered about a woman, who had brought in a cartful of buns to sell. It would be pay-day uext mbruing, and the soldiers had not even money enough to l uy a penny bun. Still it was evidently a comfort to crowd about the cart, and inhale the warm odor of the delicacy which they could not otherwise, enjoy, and no one noticed the Crown Prince until he was close upon them. "What is the price of your buns, good woman?" he called, "A penny apiece, sir," said she. "Very well, I'll buy the cartload. Get my treasurer to pay you. And you, my soldiers, you have worked so hard to-day that you are sure to be hungry. I hope the buns will make a palatable dessert after supper." The solders cheered, and felt, no dou'jt, thai; there was never prince so thoughtful as theirs. A Premium ot Vuulh. "Mamma, when you grow old will you look like little grandma?" asked a little boy of 3 or 4 years of his pretty young mother. Yes, dear," answered his mother, "if you mean to ask if my face will bo wrinkled and thin, and shall have lost some of its fairness. Yes, I shall grow to look as little grandma docs. Why do yiu want to know, Henry?" "Well, mamma, I'll try hard, but I am afraid I can't love you then as well as I do now." There hi something in this trifling incirlent that, in spite of all reasoning, will sadden, for the child told frankly that which those who havo grown even to middle age must count as true there is always a premium on youth. A True Story. One evening an old couple came over to upend a part of thi evening with us, and as we were seated around t.ie lire the old lady told us of a celebrated murder that had happened in the town where she had live:l for years, and as sho had been personally acquainted with the parties concerned, was able to relate to us even the most minute details. After she had finished and we had spoken of the many strange points of the case, the old man straightened himself cut and slowly said. "Well, I will now tell you a true story. " The feelings of the lady can hotter lie imagined than described Froo Press.

Silent Music. In the oiehestra of a small theater in j Munich were two musicians who en ill : played u trombone. Tho audience lud been often charmed with tho perfect regularity of the movements of throe . musicians. Both of these accomplished ' trombonerri if we may use such a word wete in the lmliit of not only looking at, but of actually imbibing the wino when it wan red. The first trombon or was of j ai ticul irlv convivial nature. One evening, having been to a dim er party, he became very much intoxicated; He forgot entirely that anew opera was ' to be performed that; evening, and that, ! of course, liis service.1, would be required. ! When he was reminded by a courier ; from the tin iit. r that he was to play on the trombone that night, at first lie was j in despair, He, however, was sober ; eiKUfflito ongaf'e the services of a Hub- j fslil iite. but. as In- could not find one who j eou'd piny the- instrument, he had to re- ' sort to strategy, lie told tlie subsfi-! tute not to try to Mow at all. "All you ; have to do : said t ho intoxicated niitsi- I cian, "is to put the month-piece to your; mouth. pirVout your chocks, and keep- j

uie your eye on ine second s tiomimno, push tint slide out and in just as he dues. Keep exact time with him in working the slide, nnd nohodv will ever know that you are not making music with the instrument." The substitute promised to do as ho was told, r.iul took his place in the orchestra by the side of the second tromboner. For a while, as long as the orchestra was in full blast, he got along very well. There were so many instruments in t'le band that nobody noticed the failure of the substitute to make any noise. He puffed out his cheeks anil worked the slide of the instrument out and in in perfect time with tho second trombener. in the coeond part, however, the music called for a trombono sola The two troml oners were to execute a piece without ot her instrumental accompaniment. All eyes were fixed on thetromboiiers, who puffed out their cheeks, nnd worked the slides of of the instruments np ind down most industriously, but in spite of their efforts a dead silence was the only result a silence so oppressive that the audience could distinctly hear the aching of a soft corn on tho musical di rector's left foot. Not a sound escaped from either instrument. The director danced about and waved his baton frattieally at the two tromboners, but all to ao purpose, for, although thoy puffed, and kept on shooting the slides out nnd in, not a sound escaped. Tho audience was astonished and the other musicians dismayed. Then the astonishing phenomenon was explained, aud it was found that the second tromboner, unknown to the first one, had also got drunk, an 1 had likewise hired ft substitute who did not know how to play, and he instructed him just as No. 1 instructed his substitute, to puff out his cheeks ai d follow the motions of his partner. A friendly Indian is one who does not make a business of scalping the superior raee; ono who only kills his vdiite benefneto "s at such odd times as ho can safely and conveniently lay the blame on somo ono else. A friendly Indian will live five to ten years on the best of terms with his neighbors; that i?, he will borrow nil tho corn meal he needs, steal what; pork he requires and beg enough fi re-water to keep him mellow. Then, wh in he has sufficiently demonstrated his friendly disposition, he will select a favorable opportunity, antl, assisted by bis relatives, also amiabls Indians, will murder and ontrage all tho whites in the settlement. Then he disappears, inking with him the settlers' horses, ai: d becomes a bad Indian for a time, keeping away from the busy haunts of men until his gnawing conscience (which is situated in his etomnch) force him to go to the reservation and drav rations. There a paternal government, through i's pious agent, pardons ill ofi'enses, blesses him and rewards litm for his friendly disposition with a blanket and a repeating rifle. Thus does the poor, u.itutored savage, the last of a doomed and dying race, appeal to tho Eastern humanitarian, who has never had the opportunity of becoming personally acquainted with his many virtues. Tra- Hiftings. Titiiks That Must tie Done. Katur: hoe assigned important tasks to the liver and t -.o bowels, and being mutually dependent ufon each other for the regular and adrqatte discharge of these tasks, a cc itloa of work by one causes the other to lapse into inactivity. The tastts of gecrction and evacuation must lie performed, or the system Is poisoned and i bordered. Moreover, f.ital iutlammatlon of the bowel-i or abscess of the livr are apt to ensue if inaction of these organs Is allowed to go unheeded. The dangerous temlenev sliopld be checked at th: outlet with liotstetter'i Btoniach Sitters, on auti-tilion specific anil laxative without a peer. Never dfMM this medicine cause a qualm ot the stomach or nnea tineas of the bowels. It does Its reformatory work pleasantly though with reasonable activity. It lr.venls malaria and rlieuiuatii: disuse, kidney complaints, aud relieves dyspepsia and nervousness. Water. An average of livo feet of water Is estimated to fall annually over the whole earth, and, assuming that condensation takes place at an average heitrhtof three thousand feet, scientists conclude tint the fcrco of evaporation to supply such rainfall must equal tho lifting of three hundred and twenty-two million pouuc.s of water three thousand ftet In every minute, or about three hundred billion harso power constantly exerted. Of this prodigious, amount of energy thus created a very sm ill proportion is transferred to tlio water that run back through rivers to the sea, and a still smaller fract on is utilized by man; tho remainder is dissipated In space. Mrs. Wil lam Jlurden, l'.7 Third St.. Albany. N. V., gives it the meed of praiso. as follows: ' I have used Br. Bull's ( oiiirh 8yrup and Hud it lias no equal.

Keepsakes More Precious than Hold, "About ton years ago," said an officer cf a safe deposit company, "wo had in one of our nates a small, box that contained a oliild's primer, two or throe picture books and a fish '.nook t.nd line. This box was left with us by at. ldorly ladv, nnd its contents once "belonged to a cliild that died many years aao. Two or three times a year the lady camo to our place and examined the contents to see if they were all right., She was the mother of the child, and she seemed to take a sad sort of pleas-ire in gazing upon the articles that lir.d anruied her dai ling in the long, long ago. Finally she ceased coming, and when the time for which she had lease ! the space in our vault had expired, wo made inquiry n-. to the reason it wns not renewed. We then learned that she was dead." "Who was the. lady?" "I must decline to state her name; but I will say that her husband was for a quarter of a ce-itmty on. of the leading business men of New Y ork.

The human citadel is opeo; te attacks from two sources, ane',. aside, from accidents, these two are th-SUVfe nues from which all of the dalatliesi that atnict the race spring. The f?rat. of these are what are known as the excretory organs. These are the lungs, . tho kidneys, and the skin. Thesei suffer from congestion, which takes; the form of colds. Starting from what i is called a cold, the maladies ihat i- -suit are widespread, ranging from a . cough to consumption. Thev attack : all ages and all stations. No one is free from these troubles. There is, however, a remedy that is a safeguard. This is Ueid's German Cotjoh amd Kidney Ccrk. It contains no poison, but it will heat any form of lung trouble, or any malady thai' arhies from a cold. The other class ot diseases arise from derangement f the digesti ve organs, and result in conHSJV pation. When the bowels do not act4 thn stomach soon refuses to digest the food,, and we are troubled with indlgesttonv. fever, and a long train of dlsordtwa that embrace a wide range of maladies. The?
