"Hark!" " She sat upright in her bed. The gold hair from her bead Crisping, coiling, wandering low O'er her txwom cold as snow. For the heart tu her bre st stood still.

. DORA'S TRIAL. EllaW. Thompson, In Lippincott's Magazine 1 "I do wish," said Mrs. Prudence Hall, holding ber darning-needle in mid-air for a moment over the coarse blue sock she was mending, "I do wish yon could see your way clear to marrying Setü HalletU lie wants you the worst kind, and he'd be such a good provider." "But I don't like him well enough, Prudy; and I want something besides meat and drink and two calico dresses a year." Mrs. Prudence Hall had sprained her ankle, and was forced, solely against her will, to sit day after day in an urper chamber, with a lerrible consciousness that everything about the farm was relapsing into chaos for want of her personal oversight Her pretty sister Dora had come to stay with her; but "she was only a child, you know." "There are only two kinds of love in this world," said Mrs. Hall, after a pause, in which she had been taking counsel with herself whether Dora was old enough tobe talked to on such matters at all, and it flashed upon her that "the child" was neariy twenty years old. "Perhaps you like Seth well enough to many him. only you don't know it." "Tell me about the two kinds of love," said Dora, innocently. "I thought love was love the world over." "I have never known but one kind, I think, Dora. When I married David Hall he was the most well-to-do young man in these parts, and we never had a quarrel while he lived. He was a good, practical sort of a man, and never a:ked me to do anything unreasonable." "What if he had?" asked Dora. "Well, I guess I should have argued him out of it. But there is a kind of love that will draw women through fire and water. It makes them throw themselves away on peor, shiftless men that will never provide for them nor their children, and they know it as well as anybody else does. It is the greates wondert to me why such a useless feeling should ever have been created." Dora had bent low over her woik to hide her roguish smiles at her sister's discouise; but at this point she fixed her deep gray eyes on Prudence, not smiling, but simply earnest. Such love brings happiness sometimes, I suppose," said Dora. "Next to never," said Prudence with great decision. "We ain't mad to be happy, and anything that's too good always leaves a bad taste in the mouth. Comfort is a bird in the hand, and you don't gain anything by letting it My on the chauce of happiness." "Did you ever know anyone about here. Prudence, that threw herself away for love? It seems to me they won't look at a man unles he has a house and a farm all ready for them." "That's where they're right," said Prudence. "You are rather given to high flying notions, and it's time you found out that bread don't grow ready buttered. Yes, I did know one girl, who was pretty and smart and had no end of chances to get married (I think my David courted her a spell, but he never would own it), and she would have that shiftless critter, Joe Raymond who never could make one had wash the other. Even when sne was a dying she pre tended that she had been happy and would not have done no other way if she had it to do over again." "Was she our Joe's mother?" asked Dora quickly. "Yes, to be sure; and when he died we took him to bring up and work on the farm. He more than paid his way, but he's a rolling stone like his father and won't never come to anything. 1 forgot to tell you he's troinc to-morrow." "Going to-morrow?" cried Dora, with a gr;at start. "1 thought his time wasn't out lor another month." "Well, it ain't out rightly till he's twenty-one; but he was in such a hurry to be off that I gave him the last month." Then silence fell uion them. These two women had the tame father and mother, though a score of years lay between them. Prudence had been born in the early married life of her parents, when they were struggling with a stony New England farm, and there was work even for baby hands. The lines of duty and patience were deep, graved in her rugged face, which yet beamed with a kindly common sense. But Dora had come to her mother late in life, as an old tree sometimes blossoms into loveliness after every one has forgotten it. Her little feet had walked in -asy paths, and Prudence yearned over her like a mother. She sat now by the open tire, bending her graceful bead over some delicate work that Prudence would never have found time for; her red dress and the flickering firelight made her a picture too lovely for that dull room. 'Prudence," she said suddenly, "as this is Joe's last night, I think I'll go down and say good-bye to him." "You might call him up here." " So; I think I will go myself." "I believe I haven't ever told yoiij Dora, how much you pleased me by giving up that childish way of going on with him that you used to have. It did very well for you to be fond of each other when you were little, but of course it is out of the question now." It might have been the red dress a id the firelight that brought such a vivid flush to Dora's cheek as she listened and turned away. She ran lightly down stairs and opened the door of the great farm kitchen. A young man sat by the dull fire, looking into it as one looks into the eyes of an enemy before the fieht an overgrown farmer boy, in home made clothes, with nothing about him to fall in love with, least of all for the brilliant little figure that stood waiting for him to look up. He was too intent on his own thoughts to notice her, till she went swiftly across the room, and, taking his bead between her soft hands, turned his face up to hers. "Joe, bad boy, were you going away without letting me know?" The soft lines of his face softened and

brightened under her gaze till one would r.ot have known hint for the same man. "1 thought I should not see you to night," he said. "Yon know better; you know I would have crept through the key-hole for one last

little minute with you." "How long will you wait for me, Dora?" "Till you erne back." "If it were seven years, think how long it would be?"j "If you loved me as you make believe," said Dora, "you would not go away at all, but won hi work here till you could build a little house, and then we would rough it toother." "No, little Dora, that is not my kind of love; my mother tried that, aud she lived a slave's life." "Dora, Dora!" cried Prudence from upstairs; "what on earth are you doing down there?" "I lutifct eo now. I must truly." said Dora, as she felt her&elf locked in arms that would not give way. "If I live without you for seven years I shall be a homely old maid, and vou w ill not thank me for waiting for you." He put her away then and looked at her curiously, as if he had never thought of her prettiness before. "Do you know what your name meaws?" he asked earnestly. "I saw it in the paper that 'Theodora' means '(iift of Cod,' and ; ou have been just that to me. If 1 bad never sten you I should never have bad a notion but about a day's work and a night's sir ep. I will write whenever I have any luck,' and come home on New Year's eve, when I do come: and if you wear this red dress I shall know you have waited for me." "I think I shall live to wear it when you come home, if it is seven times seven years, Joe; for women are very hard to kill." said Dora, slowly dis.ipiearing from the kitchen. "What have you been doing all this time?" said Prudence, serenely. "I was only giviug Joe some good advice." "Well, I hope he'll profit by it." "So do I," said Dora, heartib'. 'Tis as easy to say seven years as one. and we read of Jacob's seven years' service for Rachel, which seems but as one day for the love that he bore her. Rachel's feelings are not thought worthy to be mentioned in Holy Writ; but if her love was like Dora's, every day seemed teven year?. And here, in a nut-shell, lies the difference between a man's love and a woman's. Jacob had the sheep to mind, and he did mind them uncommonly well; Joe went to seek his fortune in new scenes, and only thoughtof Dora when he had nothing else to do. The poet thought he had set a hard task to men when he said Learn to labor and to wait: but it is immeasurably harder to be idle than to wait. Till her lover went away, Dora had never cared to ask herself whether she were a child or a woman. Sunshine had been plenty with her, and she had easily sugared and gilded the plain things that farm life a lorded to her. Before the first year came to an end, she felt that she should soon arrive at a patriarchal age If she did not do something to kill the time which died so hard on her hands. "Teach school! I guess not." said her father, when she broached her plan to him. "You ain't starvin' yet; and if you want some new furblows, just say so, and not come at it slantin' way like that." "I don t want an) thing, father; but there is so little for me to do at home." "Nonsense! In my time, gals was always full of business. Can't you make sheets and pillow cases and get ready to be married? Who knows but somebody '11 ak ye one of these days?" "Waal, waal, folks can't always have their 'd rathers in this world. I ain't willin', and that's the end on't." But that was not the end on't, and Dora easily obtained a school. She developed a governing spirit which cbarmtd the Committeemen, and the congenial labor in the company of little children took ber out of herselfand infused new life into her hope deferred. Every week she walked to the postoßice, three miles away, to ask for a letter, going in with a bright flush on either cheek and coming out pale and dull-eved after the stab of disappointment. I wonder that people in the country are so anxious to be postmasters; if thev only knew it, they are actors in more tragedies than any member of a theatrical stock company. Much sealed hanpi-' ness passes through their hands; but they have to refuse many a "Mariana in the Moated Orange" weary women who reach a hand out of their dull lives for a letter and draw it back empty. It was far into the second year before Joe's first letter came. It was surely a fanciful and foolish thing for a schoolmistress to do, but Dora carried it to her own little room, and put on the red dress before she read Joe's letter. Joe was working in the mines in Colorado. His luck had not yet come, in nuggets at least, but hard work and sober living were slowly giving him the advantage over the other miners. He was never so weil, aud he loved her better than all the world. Dora lived on this letter for many weeks, and she set "Colorado" for a cony so often to her scholars that they write that word better than any other to their dying day. Letters came oftener as years went on; sometimes Joe was up in the world, sometimes down. Once his carefully-hoarded gold was stolen from him, and he had to begin all over again; but this was nothing to a long illness, in which a friend wrote to Dora as soon as Joe was out of danger. Then Dora envied the doves their wings. The New Yaar's day was the hardest of all to bear. She could not help a strong pressure of excitement when she put on the red dress which grew more and more old-fashioned and watch the sun go down on the road which Joe must travel when he should come home. The next morning she fitted her shoulders sadly to the burden of another year. One young farmer after another found his way to the old farm house on Sunday evenings, and Dora pushed them down an inclined plane of discouragement so gently that they scarcely knew whether they had meant to court her or not. It was not the least of her trials to meet the entreaties of her mother and the rough arguments of her father when one or two more persistent suitors would take nothing less than "no" for their answer. Dora could give no reason for repeated refusals to marry, only she loved no one well enough a reason which would be all sufficient if parents remained immortally young, but it loses weight after sixty. As the seventh year drew to a close Dora s heart beat light within her. Joe had men tioned seven years, as if he had meant to to come home then, at any rate. She wore out the first day of the "glad New Year" with busy cares till late in the afternoon, when an old man. spent with much walking, stopped to rest himself in the farm house kitchen. Prudence bestirred herself to give him a hearty luncheon, and when he was warmed and fed he began to talk of his travels. He had been to seek his fortune all over the West, and never finding it be had come back to die at home. He mentioned Colorado and Denver, and when Dora found herself alone with him for a moment she said: "Did you ever see Joseph Raymond in Denver?" "Joe Raymond? Oh, yes! knew him well; lived with him nigh onto a month. His wife was a real good cook; couldn't be beat nowhere in them parts." "You say he was married?" "To be sure; a right smart feller, and mighty fond of his wife. Women are scarce out there." Prudence came in, and the old man went on his way, all unconscious of the great stone he had cast into the still waters of Dora's heart "What's the matter?" said Prudence. "You're as white as a sheet." Dora's only answer was to start out of the house and run, as for her life, down the frozen orchard path.by which she could gain upon and overtake this trrrible old man. She might have said, with "Holv Herbert:' My thoughts are all a case of knives. Wounding my heart With scattered smartonly misery must have time to crystalize into a memory before it takes the form of poetry. She stood before the old man at the turning, bare-headed and breathless. "How did the Joe Raymond look that you lived with?" gasped Dora. "I never said 'Joe Raymond,' " said the old man, peevishly; "I said 'Jim Raymond.' They had a big boy named Joe, who" but

Dora was off arain before he could finish

the .sentence. She ran back through the orchard, giving thank with all her heart that she had not fu tiered herself to be tiersuadetl of Joe's faithlessness on one hearing. Her feeling of grateful awe, as if she had escated from sud den death, kept her from mourning much over the passing away of the seventh anni versary of Joe's departure, with no sign of ins return. His letters had wholly ceased and there was nothing left for Dora but to possess her fMul with patience. When another New Year dawned upon her she put on the old red dress more from habit than any gleam of hope in lier heart, und did not care to look in the glass. In the twilight she walked slowly down the orchard path, and leaned on the gate that oened into the road. Suddenly a man sprang out from behind the wall. "Theodora, my 'gift of Ood!' " he said; and Dora, though she recognized no mark of the lover who had left her eight years before, felt that no other knew that nas-word, and suffered herself to rest silently in his arms in the ineffable content that comes after long waiting. When Joe and Dora went into the house and she looked at him by candlelight, her heart almost mi.-gave her; his luxuriant beard ' and the manlv axsnrance of his m.tnners were not at all like her Joe of beloved memory, and a terrible barrier seemed to rise up between them, while Prudence remained in the room with her company manners, which sat more awkwardly upon her than her Sunday gown. When Dora tiptoed softly by berskter's door at a very late hour that nisjht, Prudence was l3'ing awake for her. "Don't tell ine," she said, "that you've been waiting for that Joe Raymond all this lime!' "I won't tell you, if you don't want to hear it," said Dora. "Do you know whether he came home any better off than when he went away?" "I really haven't thought to ask him," said Dora, caielessly. Prudence groaned and turned her face to the wall. Joe waited only till the next day to tell Mrs. Hall the story of his success, which looked very moderate in his traveled e3Tes, but seemed a nob!e fortune to her homely ideas. "I never thought before," said Dora's father at the wedding, "that a woman could keep a secret; and 1 guess it ain't much more common than snow in dog days." "How long would you have waited for me?" whispered Joe in Dora's ear. "Forever," said Dora, solemnly. And Mrs. Prudence Hall, as she overheard the word, thanked her stars that Dora's foolish notions had not wrecked her at last on a poverty-stricken marriage. Golden Maxima. On Conduct Toward a Friend. Il&st thou a friend, use him friendly; abuse him not in jest or earnest; conceal his infirmities; privately reprove his error?, lest thy friend become thy enemy and abuse thee. How TO use Pkosperity. So use prosperity that adversity may not abute thee. If in prosperity thy security admits nofar; in adversity thy despair will afford no hope. He that in prosperity can foretell a danger can in adversity fortsee deliverance. Ox Secret Enemies. He that profeeteth himself thy open enemy arms thee against the evil he means thee; but he that dissembles himstlf thy friend, when he is thy secret enemy, strikes beyond caution and wounds above cure. From the first thou maytt deliver thyself; from the last, gocd Lord deliver thee. On Anger Beware of him that is slow to anger. Angf r, when it is long in coming. Uthe strongest when it comes, and the longest kept. Abused patience turns to fury. "When fancy is the ground of passion, the uoderttanding wh'ch composes the fancy qualifies the passion; but when judgment is the ground, the memory is the recorder, and the pastion is long retained. The following extracts are taken from a little work entitled "Miscellanea, or Choice Observations and Pleasant Remarks on Virtues, Vices and Humors of Mankind, both Moral and Divine. Second Edition. By J. H." The initials J. II. are those of John Hall, Bishop of Norwich, England, who died in 1059. There is much in them for to-day's reflection: Believing and Communicatino News. Let the greatest part of the news thou heare-t be the least part thöu believett, lest the greatest part of what thou believest be the least part of what ia true, and report nothing for truth in earnest or in jest unless thou know it, or at best confidently believe it to be eo; neither is it expedient at all times or in all companies to report what thou know est to be true; sometimes it may avail thee if thou seem rot to know that which thou knowest. Hast thou any secret, commit it not to many, nor to any unlee well known to thee. On Dkkss. In thy apparel avoid profusoness, tingularity and gaudincsf ; let it be docent and suited to the quality of thy place and purge. Too much punctuality and too much morosity are the extremes of pride. Be neither too early in the fashion, nor too long out of it, nor too precisely in it. "What custom hath civilized hath beccme decent; until then it was ridiculous. Where the eye is the jury thy apparel is the evidenco; the body iä the shell; and the husks will often tell you what the kernel is. Seldom doth solid wisdom dwell under fantastic apparel, neither will the pantaloon fancy to be immured within the walls of grave habit. The fool is known by his pied coat. On Conversation. Clothe not thy language either with obscurity or affectation; in the one thou dicoverest too much daiknesa and ia the other too much lightness; he that speaks from the understanding does best. Know whn to speak, lest while thou showest wisdom in not speaking, thou bitray thy folly in too loDg silence. If thou art a fu!, tby lilence is wisdom; but if thou art wiso thy silence is folly. As too many words from a fool's mouth give one that is wise no room to speak, so too long silenco in one that is wise gives a fool opportunity of speaking, and make3 thee in the same measure guilty of his folly. To conclude, if thou be not wise enough to speak, be at least so wise as to hold thy peace. On Bkarino Adversity. Has fortune dealt thee ill card?, let wisdom make thee a good gamester. In a fair gale every roof may sail, but wise behavior in a etorm commands the wisdom of a pilot. To bear adverity with an equal mind is both the sign and glory Oi a brave spirit. As there is no worldly loss without some gain, if thou hast lost tby wealth thou hast lo6t some trouble with it; if thou art degraded, thou art likewise freed from the stroke of envy : if sick, ness hath blurred tby beauty, it bath delivered thee from pride. Set the allowance against tby loss, and thou ehalt find no great loss. He lot eth little or nothing who keepeth the favor of God, and the peace and freedom of his conscience. SOCIETY DIRECTORY.
