Everybody wondered how Mlle. Angeline Majolin happened to be an old maid. •They all admitted that she was charming. Her head was bound with heavy braids of glossy hair, and her beautiful black eyes were full of a pathetic gentleness. She lodged in ths fourth story of a tenement on the Rue Bqursault alone with her blind mother, whom she attended constantly. These ladies received no company, but although they sought to I attract no attention at any time whoever met them could not help feeling interested in them and that some sad mystery surrounded their seclusion. The family of Majolin was 80 years ago one of the richest and most influential in the province. Unhappily M. Majolin was a gambler. He engaged in all sorts of speculations in order to recover the money which he had lost in play. When he saw ruin staring him in the face, he killed himself. Mme. Majolin was doubly stricken by the loss of fortune and the violent death of her husband, whom, although he-had caused her much suffering, she still loved dearly. And, alas, her misfortunes did not end here. Her eldest son had inherited tho unfortunate failing of his father. At last, in order to evade justice, he fled to the colonies and was never heard from again. The only other remaining son perished m a hunting accident. The poor lady then had left to her but a single child, her daughter Angelina. They removed to a small farm, which was attached to the grand castle in which they had once lived. There they managed to subsist on the produce of the place and a few rentals, all that remained of their once ample fortune. Here grief and tears soon caused Mme. Majolin to lose her sight, which day by day grew dnlljjfrnniil she became blind. Notwithstanding the isolation and sadness in which thbse two women lived, the beauty of Angeline, in spite of its somewhat serious and melancholy character, could not fail to attract attention. As she approached her twentieth year two young men began to show a marked admiration for her. One of them in particular was very assiduous. v It was their cousin. Maxime de Grandlieu, a young man of noble presence, a delightful companion, talented, strong and high spirited. He had just finished his studies and had come to the country for a season of rest before entering upon the brilliant career which he had marked out for'himself and which his great fortune rendered possible. The innocent and tender heart of Angeline responded at once to the young man’s evident affection. A mysterious but delightful bewilderment would possess her after a waltz upon Maxime’s arm. Enchanted by the music and their own happiness, they loved to linger for a moment's talk by themselves in the embrasure of a window, or they would exchange the flowers that they wore, she taking hers from her corsage and he his from his coat. They had still other joys together. Among theca not the least were their rambles among the fields, bathed in the delicious light of sunset. When they were tired or desired to study nature more attentively, they safe down at the base of the great trees and rested pnder their heavy shadows. Since their souls were simple and united, they spoke little. At other times, when the sick mother gently complained that she was left alone too often, they remained together in the parlor, where the majestic portraits of their ancestors looked down upon them with a sorftof grave indulgence. If he delayed to come, she would advance as far as the stairway, holding in her hand a bunch of white rcses. When he began to climb the steps, she would playfully pelt him with the white petals. Smilingly he would advance under this snowy avalanche, happy in the knowledge that he was beloved. However, a shadow invisible to Anireline menaced her happiness even while she was in the first bloom of her new felicity. Maxime, naturally averse to everything that was dolorous and dismal,. 1 gradually conceived a strong aversion for Mine. Majolin. The sight of her melancholy face spoiled all his joy. He Was one of those who are chilled and repulsed by grief and infirmity, as if a deadly contagion lurked within them. The young girl, entirely wrapped up in her love, was slow to perceive the diss ' like which Maxime evinced toward her blind mother. Even if she had observed' it, she would havecalled.it simply Renatural neglect resulting from his utter absorption in his "love for herself. ' At last’one evening an explanation took place. They were on the terrace., Maxton; de Grandlian had taken Arigeline’s hand aii.d 'for the first time had kissed it very tenderly and passionately. “My dear one,” he said, “it is time that our lives were blended to y tla-r, for Our-hcarts are inseparable. Will you ae- ; cept my name and my fortune? We will ; travel. Your sad childhood has been ; full of mourning; You will perhaps for- ' get your sorrow in my love. For the re- ; mainder of your life you shall know no deprivation. We will go all ever the world rejoicing in oiir affection. Then we can ! make our bqjne in Paris Your mother . san live here on her property, and we •| san watch over and see that she wants ■: for nothing. Os course she would be jut of place in the midst of our elegant life. where her infirmity would be a blot

and a shadow. You will be fitted to adorn society, and I shall be a constant worshiper at your ebrine.’’ The pale moon shed its perfidious rays upon the face of the young man ns he uttered these words. Far away the trees, grouped together among the shadows, resembled spirit beings pretending to caress and piess close to each other. Deeply moved, Angeline remained qniet. The hour seemed very solemn to her. Finally she raised her head and responded in a low voice: “Maxime, I will reflect on what you have said and will answer you tomorrow. Adieu.” She passed a wretched night. Her mother to l>ed and to sleep, breathing with the regular respiration of age, which resembles so much that of a child, but the young girl in her little chamber burst into sobs. Heremotion wasstyonger than she w.v and for awhile she allowed ’ it full s ay A veil had been torn from her ey< — n ,eil which for 20 years hail covered from her sight her own heart. She had not -ealized before the shocking selfishness v Inch filled it. J Ah! Her b -autiful, simple dream! How it disappear, J in the awful sternness of ' real life, never until now wholly revealed to her! In the first place, she was ' poor. She had felt it keenly this eveu- ' ing from the way in which Maxime bad spoken of his own wealth. Until now she had thought little of it, for she had but few wants. The beauty of the earth —its skies, its trees, its flowers, its birds, 1 its free air—sufficed for her. If she married Idin, she must, as an obedient wife, follow I is own gay, active life. The requirement- of marriage with him appeared distinct and hard. It would be necessary for her to leave this poor, infirm mother—the victim of so many misfortunes. She ctjfald no longer comfort her with tenderness and daily ministrations. Her mother, who could barely endure her child’s absence for an hour, would in solitude become more and more unhappy and would end her days in the charge of some impatient and mercenary hireling. Certainly there could be found no one to replace tile affection and attentions of a daughter. Angeline wept for hours, and sometimes in the midst of her tears there would appear to her her father, with aj revolver in his hand. Ah! Did all men resemble each other* and were they all executioners of their wives? “Unhappy those who desire the joys of Hymen!" she thought. “The best destiny for women is to live solitary or devoted to another of their own kind, far away from men!” Day dawn still found her a prey to these lugubrious thoughts. Calm came, however, slowly and frightfully. Angeline had taken a decided resolution. She would never marry. She would remain as she was, having but one object. She would never leave her mother, ill and blind. She would remain a maid, satisfied with the joys of an approv ing conscience and cheerfully performing the gentle charities which came to her hand. Perhaps some day the wounds of her heart would heal. She would regret nothing, and she could after saying her prayers sleep with clasped hands, thanking heaven for according to her peace of body and mind. Quickly she wrote some words of refusal which’would admit of no reply Then she occupied herself with gathering together some effects and with persuading her mother to remove-to Paris. No; she wished no more to live in the country, where she had suffered so much and where every object Would reinin' 1 her of the past. Mme. Majolin yielded to what she thought a caprice of her daughter »nd conformed without much complaint. She never knew the sacrifice of Angeline in her behalf. This is why the young girl has always shut her heart to things without. Her first and only love is the seal of her solitude. Her mother, whom she never quitted and whose eyes she closfkl pi death, has long ago passed beyond'tius life. And now, her last duty accomplished, Angeline Majolin continues to live alone —an old maid. —From the French. Saved by a Dog. The sagacity of a dog saved a Woburn family from being burned to death. Fire started in the house ot John Rooney on Poole street, North Woburn, about 2 o’clock in the morning, and the family, consisting of five persons, barely escaped with their lives. They were saved by the instinct of the house dog. who rushed up stairs and aroused Mr. Rooney by barking. Escape by the stairways to the lower part of the house was cut off by the lire, and the upper rooms were fast filling with smoke. Mr. Rooney succeeded in tying some bed covering together, and with this lowered one of his sons to the ground. He obtained a ladder and rescued the others, but not ► until they were nearly overcome by the emoke. Afterward the dog was found crouching in a comer of one of the rooms nearly suffocated.—Boston Transcript. Huckles For Huts. Oblong buckles, curved more or less, are.a most approved decoration now for hats. When intended for this purpose, they have rather formidable pointed tongues, which pierce the ribbon or drapery drawn through the buckla Frequently they measure six or eight inches in length ana will go nearly half round the crown of a sailor hat. But their use is not confined to this shape of hat. They deck broad brims and toqfiesj equally well. Similar bildUeOreTuadelii cut jrt, but that in imitation diamonds is the favor- . ite.—London Milliner. To Ward Off a ( old. If you keep sneezing and have sensations of chilliness, it is a fair sign of coming cold. Sometimes it can be broken quite effectually by a hot lemonade. ' Get the lemon and sugar ready and set the water boiling. Then bathe the feet in hot water or take a hot bath all over. Retire immediately and have brought to you tho glass of lemon ipid •qugar ; over which tho bqDiug water has been poured. Drink it down as hot as possible. You won’t huv-e a symptom of gold in the morning.—Washington Star. ,
