"A txautilul moroiLg," Miss Olney ihviaht, as the carriitl her bird C3ge to the Tirdow and threw orn the shatters to let in the fall Ihiod cf light. Across the way a fr'sh yean ? voice was sloping. Little Mie3 Olney paused to listen, and a dreamy smile carved her lies, and as she tended her flowera, r&us'Eg now and then to inhale thair fragrance, a sigh escaped her lips. Old neruories were stirin her heart as she went about her work, to-day, for this sunshiny lühof February seemed to like another in ice long ago. Long? Yes, the time was Ions counted by yean; and yet, as memory went tack, it f teined as but yesterday. She was only sixteen then "sweet sixteen" Jac Brown called her and they ofien called her a "little rUrt" in those days. "Did sh.e deterve the name? ' she wondered; and then she fell to criticising her own conduct and thinking over thos old days. Ah! memory wa "bittersweet as it si often is. and as e thought cf her conduct to Jtc'c on tim r tveito be forgotten night, a sort of telf pity fiirred her reart pity for the young eel that was to tLore. No. it was coi the wrae L'dft" that, loving Jak with all her heart, vresjet bound to torn.cat and tease nlta, ;tm to show her power over him aul see tow well he loved her. She had never u taut to jilt hiai never, and when on that niLt, at the valentine party, sh9 had allowed Ally Brimmer to take her home, leaving Jack, who bad escorted her there, to rind cut at his lebaie that the was V'one, she fully expected he would come over the next day and make it all up. To be sure the expected to ba very penitent, and of course it was real mean; but then ne ought to snow it was just a juke Bat Jeck did not cocas the next day, nor the next day after that. And then she heard lie had Rone away. Gone away without seeing Ler! It was dre&dfcl but. alas, it wa tree; and Lida Olney actually cried herself riete. Then she resolved she would learn his address and would write to him; but before con Id carry her plans into execution a terrible ßhock came li her. Jack was mar Tien! And, following close upon the news, Jack sent her a note, telling her of the fact she had already heard, and, enclosing her letters, requested her to seed back his own. Grieving was useless; but Mi33 Oiney rouldnot help grieving; and as she sent backhi3 letters and all the dear little souvenirs of their broken coruDsct she felt as if life was hardJy worth living. Bat. though ker own folly and Jack's rash haste had marred the live? of both, Mi Olney grew into a nobler, better woman for the sorrow she had endured. Doing "with all her might" every duty her hands found to do, living a life of quiet usefulness, bha found herself at thirty, if not positively happy, at least content An old maid they called her now, but little she cared as she went her quiet way. She lived in rented rcccs. where Ehe had lived now for years, for the epirit cf change did not often viit the quiet little village of Loralne, and the quiet old couple who owned and eccup'pd part of the dwelling were her dearest friends. The mcdest sifrn ox er her door proclaimed her adretsmaker; but it was hardly needed for everyone miles around knew "little Miss Olney" welL To day ber landlord and his wife were away, and her assistants olt on their holiday. She, too, was keeping holiday all alone, fcitting with idle hands for this one day. and letting memory bring back the ' face of her Douglas, tender aad true." "FoorJack!" Only dust ard ashes now; and yet he never .ened dead to her. How the tears would steal down as ehe thought of his blighted life; h;s early death. Ah, if shs only knew how he died, this '"young hero of ours." He had proposed to and married his wife all in cue day married in mad haste and "repented at leisure," though no human aoal ever hiard from his manly lip3 either complaint cr rtzret. He bora the consequence of his mad folly with a heroism which was a part of his t a tu re. Mattie Barnes, the girl he htd married, had literally 'jumped at the chance'' when he offered marriage, and consented without much hesitation to an Immediate marrisge. Not because she loved hirr oh. no: that never entered into ber calculations. Their acquamtaace was jlight, but she was srre he could give her a home, and she was a dependent on relatives, and twenty-live years old. She had been targht to believ that to be an "old maid" m the worst and last diegrace a womn could endure She was not ery attractive ard this washer first cfier. 6he accepted nd Jack was not hindered in his plan of punishing Lida, Alas! thou sh the punishrctntwaahard for her, yet Jack's pnaishruent was tenfold the harder to bear. A marriat e withont love, even without esteem, and he had brought It on himself. Mrs. Brown was not disposed to make the burden ary lighter, and her constant repining be cause some of their neighbors had things eo much 4,iii er" than thev could afford addad the last droD to his cap of misery. The breaking cut cf the Civil War brought to him a !cam of hope. Naturally patriotic, he was among the first to enli9t. For two years he served his country well, and in a regiment known for its bravery he stood among the first. So far ha had escaped with alight wounds; bathe was not alwayi thus to escape he was wounded and taken prisoner. TheD. after long, weary months, ah! auch months to the prisoners at Andersonville and Libby," uch months of tngniih to

"fco ehe eet oat her supoer, with "snosvy t'fania'k" aad dainty chiuä and the silver that Lad been in the fimily for more than a Feneration. It was her cholcsst treasure. her only inherited wealth, and as aha laid the solid knife and fork beside her plate and placed the other pieces to her satisfaction, she stood back to note tha effect, as she often did, and thea she sighed to taint: no one was withhtrto jyiarathiza with her in any oi her feelings. Jut then she was rather startled h a heavy rap at the door. 4 Oaly some ni;h bor," she thought, as be stepped to admit the applicant. The wind blew in with its attendant sleet and snow, and the atraor at the thrednid stepped in with it, neither waiting f ir an invitation. A tentlemaa by his dre39, b it Mira Olcev. though not sivea to fear, felt s. sudden chill as sh.9 saw that ho was stranger. He rnteht be a robber, depite hN gentlemanly guise, and her silver, her pr--clous silve. How imprudent to eet it oat before her unshuttered win lows. The strarger did not watt for her to speak ; he was shaking as if with an ague chill. "Excuse me, madam," he said, ia a vo'ce trf mulou3 and hoane, 4 I believe I ara chilled through.

Lids," be whispered ,:L'di. don't you ktow me; don't you know Jack?" Was the world receding from her? Had the grave given un itj dad? Sue felt no fear, even in the first moment. Spirit or iLcrtal, it wa3 Jtck. Bat forafpw moments ber tenses seemed to fail her, acd than, with a whispered "Jack," she c!asp?d him clofe only for a moment though, for she must look at him. "Is it really you, JacV?" she said at last. "Are yon sure it i3 yon?" Yes, quite sure." he answered, with :i laugh that, if it had boen a womsu, would have been hysterical. "But I thought you were dead, Jack." "And was you sorry?" Sach a look as sLe gave him. "How can you ask! Bat tell me how it was." And then he told her of the long oblivion, from which he woke to find himself reported as dead. The terrible priion life had driven him rr ad. He was taken and cared for by pood Samaritans, fr thre long years, and then when he was himself again, he found that every one suppoaed him dead. "And," he said, "knowing my wife had remarriel and my other friends given me up, I thought it beet not to break the silence. But heiritg, long ago, that she was dead, I could no longer resist the longing to had oat if I was entirely forgotten? I arrived here bnt a little while ajo, and found oa in auiry that yen were still Miss Oiney, aad Jived alone cr, at least, had an establishment cf jour own." "Ah, Jack, do yoa know what day it is? You are my 'valentine,' sir." Audacious, wa?n't it, for little Miss Olney to to forget the proprieties? Tne old people in the other part of the house came home; bat whether it was hoars or minuses after Jack carte, neither of the "yoanV people ecu Id have told. And bo the wonderful news of Jack's retnrn became en old stary in Loraine. and Mrs Brown, once little Mp-s Olney, tells her children the story of her "valeLtlae." Kye for Spring reeding. iMissouri Kcpublicaa.l There are lew If any plants that are more valuable for soiling ia the spring than rye. It grows very rapidly, and oa a pood, rich soil, will furni h a large amount of the very bestoffcod. It often happens that grains, such as corn and oati, eell high ia the spring and farmers can net always afford to bay. A patch of rye will often take the place of the greater portion of the grata, not oaly for tte stock bat also for the teams. Teams will do a pood day's work if they caa have one gcod feed of grain and thea a go id supply o! grtin rye cut and led to them. Bye sown in tte fall of course is better for tb!i purpose than spring rye, yet if you have neglected to sow a good patch ia the fall and you have any idea that the grain supply will be short for feeding. It w.ll pay to prepare a small patch aad snow. Of ccuree, as a quick, strong growth is very desirable, it will pay to select good rich ground for the purpose. Prepare the laud by thoroughly ploughlsg, then harrow and sow broadcast, harrowiDc in well, so as to leave the soil in gcoJ condition; or the drill can be u?ed after thoroughly preparing the land. About one and a half bashcli to the acre will be about the r:ght quantity to sow. You can commence catting off and feeding as coon as the rye gets high enough, and if yon are reasonably careful not to tramp down too much it will sprout up and make a new growth ready to be cat a.aiu. If yoa want to nte it for milling alone you should Rot allow it to head out. As long as it is kept down by catting it will sprout np and make a new growth. There are many kinds of stock that can be benefited considerably by the addition of a liberal supply of rye cut and fed green. Stock craves something green and the pastures often will not furnish a sufficient sapply. Then again It is not always convenient to have all the stock run in the pastures. A good patch of rye will often furnish them a good supply of green food with very little trouble and expense. It is much better, as well aa more economical, to have a supply of grain to cat and feed to the working teaais and keep them in the stables at night than to turn them oat into the pastares at night and be forced to go after them through the daw early in the morning.
