AVICHX THOUGHTS.

BT BECKIK M BEXD. Bbe is sitting alone In the twilight, The autumn day in done; She Is sitting there, hearing, half dreamily, The apple drop, one by one. And her thoughts fly back to her spring time. When the apple trees. In bloom, "Were to her, a careless d reamer, But a mass of sweet perfume. Then came the happy summer, When she thought of day to come. As she lazily watched theblossoms Turn to apples In the sun. And now she Is come to the autumn. The autumn, too, of her years, And as the ml, ripe apples fall, Met h inns I see tailing tears. For she thinketh now of the winter, The winter sure to come, "When the apple trees will be resting. While snow Hakes fall one by one. But, God knoweth, when life Is over. When we nee what we've left nndoue, Bv the light of the blessed hereafter. We'll be glad that our seasons are gone. And the aged lips move softly. As she thanks Him who rules alone; Thanks Him for Ills many mercies Thro' seasons past and gone. Yes! Thanks be to lllm who glveth The seasons as they come; Mav he bring ns all to Ills kingdom When the dear Lord calls us home. Written for the .Sentinel. THE TWO COUSINS. BY CARRIE A. WOLFE. "Will Ilueston reached the age of twentyecven before he met with a woman that possessed all the qualities that he required in a wife. I1L ideal was Miriam Woodruff, a lady of nineteen year?, beautiful enough, "Will thought, to please his senses, good enough to influence him for the better, domestic enough to oversee his household, accomplished enough to shine In society, and devoted enough, he hoped, to consider an hour of life with him wortli more than a lifetime without him. Will was an orphan, having a large property In bis own right. lie was above niedi- ' xim height, and had dark hair and eyes. He was one of those men that young girls gush over, and older girls turn to look at twice, and then ask: "Who is be?" His home was at Henderson, Kentucky, where Miriam had come to visit a friend. Before her visit was out she had promised to become Mrs. Ilueston. Will had accomnnl,,l har tn her northern home. and was going to remain a few weeks. That was in the early summer; before the next spring they were to be married. Misa Woodruff's home was a very beautiful one, near a large town ; her mother was dead. 'You must have well trained servants," aald Mr. Ilueston to her the day of their arrival. "Everything is In such perfect order. I was afraid I would not see much of you here, but there seema to be no demand for your services." "No; Adah attends to everything." "So," thought Will, "Miriam is only a housekeeper in theory, not in practice," and added aloud: "Who is Adah?" "Oh, only a poor cousin. She is away today, so you have not seen her." At the head of the breakfast table next morning sat a lady, a year older than Miriam, perhaps, but looking very much like her. "Only!" thought Ilueston; "she has the most expressive face I ever raw, and such wonderful eyes." "This is my neice, Miss Clifford," said Mr. Woodruff to Will. "My daughter lsnotdown yet; never gets down till 9; always been dulged, you know." And straightway before this lover's eyes Coated a prospectus of breakfasts eaten without the beautifal face of his wife behind the coffee urn. Before dinner he left Miriam for a little while to go out on the veranda and smoke. Somehow it seemed to him that his promised bride did not ornament her own home as well as she had her friend's. Her hair was in papers, and her wrapper, an elegant affair in its time, had seen its bestdayr. She evi lent y thought it a good time to begin to break to Will the fact that when one's lover is stcured one is not expected to waste time and material in looking well for their take alone. He caught sight of Adah, flitting here and there among the servants in her neat calico dress and white apron; and once her sleeves were rolled up. revealing a shapely arm, and her hands were covered with flour. Then he glanced in at his affianced, and somehow Adah, in the midst of her home duties, looked better to this man than Miriam and her fancy work In the p?rlor, 'Surely Mlu Clifford U not occupied all day with her household duties," said Miriam's lover to her late that evening. "No;" a little impatiently, "I suppose she la in the study. She studies for the same reason that she gets up something good to eat; because she enjoys it. "What does she study?" "Ohj don't ask. me; she left me behind Tears ago. She has the queerest tastes." - "Why, Miriam, you told me that you were such a book worm." Oh. Will." laughing, "I beard that you liked smart people, and I told you that to impress voa favorably. Oh, such tiresome hours and hours that I spend, in studying up something smart to talk to you about," ahe said, laughing merrily, and then added -with a sigh of relief, "I'm so glad that's all over." Will Uueston laughed wlthher, but the laugh was not musical. There was a discordant note in it that Indicated a heart out of tune. A week passed. He felt that he was Just beginning to get acquainted with bis future wif . Of Adah he saw but little. He re turced from a walk about that time, and was delighted as he approached the houte to hear Miriam playing and singing. "She never would do either for me," he ild. "althoaeh she says she does both well." He loved music passionately. The singer's Toice wss wonderful In Its volume and weetnen. and he stood outside entranced, and looked ahead to the years of bliss in atora for him with so talented a wife. She would gratify bis passion for music. Jtnd she would become noted; and he

loved that "ring of light" about a woman's head that men call "fame." He could stay from Miriam no longer; so stealing up behind her, he put an arm about her neck and bent to kiss ber, raying: "I am so proud of you, darling." "Mr. Ilueston!" and the fair performer arose, astounded. And then Will stammered, "I beg your pardon, Miss Clifford. I thought you were Miriam." "I believe you," she said, "for we are so alike. But you need not make the mistake again," she added, laughing, "for my cousin does not sing and very rarely plays." Adah left the room, and Will Bat down and thought of how fast his ideal woman was being transformed into a very ordinary one. And then the half formed thought came to him that he wished he had knoWn Adah Clifford first. Then he arose and walked the room, ashamed of himself, and, contrite, went out to seek Miriam and make amend?. A few days afterward Miriam and Will were out horseback riding. Minam rode splendidly, Will very indifferently. As they returned, and were about two miles from home, they saw Adah crossing a field. "Where is she going?" asked Will. "How can I know? Adah is so queer. She visits every poor old sick man and woman for miles around, and never leaves without praying with them." "Do you never go with her, Miriam?" "Me?" in a tone of surprised indignation. "No, Indeed. I see no fun in that sort of thing. And she why she actually enjoys it. The queerest girl!" "But, darling, I would like taxhave you learn to endure tnat sort of thin, to please me. There are so many poor in my village that will look to my wife for just such help." "If you are going to marry me, Will, to wait on your poor, you will make a great mistake, for I hato the pxr, with their huts and filth and ignorance and contagious diseases." "And I," thought Will Ilueston, "wanted a wife like Ouida's Etoile; one that would be touched Instantly by pain, moved to quick charity, capable of strong deed and deep thought, and answering appeal as a golden harp the player's touch." "We must hurry home," said Miriam;

"there is a storm coming." And not another word was said between them as they galloped swiftly homeward. He helped Miriam off her horse, then mounted his own again. "Where are you going, Will? Don't you see that tbe storm is right upon ns?" I am going back for Miss Clifford. I will get there before it rains;'she will be so frightened in that desolate place. I will bring her back on your horse," and he took up the bridle he bad dropped. "What folly!" said Miriam, as she stood on the poarch and watched him out of sight Iueston bad just about got in the piece of woods at the end of the lane when Miriam saw Adah coming a "short cut" across the other way. "And there Will has gone back after you," said Miriam angrily as Adah came up the walk to the house. "Ob, 1 am so sorry; but be will reach the house before the storm bursts." "I am not so sure; don't you hear how the woods are roaring, Adah? And Golddust is unmanageable when it Is thunderI 4 Oh, Miriam, how could you let him go on that horse!" "I did not think till it was too late." Tbe storm now came in terrible fury. "Let us go in," said Miriam, whose face was white as Adah's now, but from a differ ent caune. The girl did not hear her. Miriam covered her eyes with her bands, murmuring, "This is terrible," and, shaking from head to foot, crept to her room. Adah kept her post, and never took ber eyes from the road that tamed into the woods. Sud denly a flush overspread her face. "He is coming," she said; but. the next moment the face grew white again, for Golddust wss riderless. 'Miriam! Miriam!" she called; "come down. Something has happened to Mr. Ilueston." The affianced wife came, weeping and wringing her hands, summoning the whole household to take care of ber in ber grief. Adah was far down the road by this time that led to the woods. Outside of them tbe storm was fierce and maddening enough, but in the woods it was simply terrific. But tbe girl went on, and away on the other side of the woods she saw Will Hoeston. He raised up on oneelbow as she approached and held out tbe other band to ber. , "Oh, Mr. Ilueston." she said, kneeling down by blm, "I thought that you were killed." "No, nor even hurt much; only I can not walk." "The wagon will be here soon; I ordered it to follow me." Will looked up In the girl's expressive face, and read there how much she had Buffered for him and wondered if it was poa sible she cared for him. And then he thought of his chains, and would not look again, for dearer than all passion to this man was honor. And then the wagon came and Will was taken home. "It was nothing after all," Miriam said that night to Adah, "but a sprained ankle I would not have had such a scar for i score of sprained joints. And what a goose you made of yourself, Adah, running off like one mad through the tempest to aid a man who did not need you." "Why did you come. Miss Cliffordr asked Will as Miriam left the room. "For the same reason that I would have gone to any one in trouble." "And that was" "For humanity's sake." "Are you sure of that?" he asked earnest ly, looking up in her eyes. Adah made no answer, and in another minute arose and followed her cousin from the room. It seemed to Will Ilueston that from the day of bis entrance in Miriam's home there commenced with them "that drifting slow apart, all unresisted, unrestrained, which comes to some when they have Rained the dear endeavor of their soul." Bo he concluded to return home. Miriam told Adah, after he was gone, that the visit had been such a tiresome affair she was

glad he was gone. He was to return once more ere he came to claim bis bride. At mid-winter Adah's uncle wanted her to go to Canada for him on an affair of trust, and remain a month. Will Ilueston was about to make bis visit to Miriam, so Adah went. Will and Miriam went on to return with her, and stayed a few days to see what was to he seen. The weather was not as intensly cold as they bad expected to find it All three of them went out in a sleigh one afternooD, to go just beyond the suburbs of the town; but they felt so comfortable wrapped in their furs, and enjoyed the ride so well, that they concluded to go several miles out in the country. They went, and returned in time to get back to the little town before dark. "It is such a long way back," said Miriam, shivering, and wrapping up more closely in her fur robe. "That is what I was beginning to think.'k said Adah; "and this does not look like the way we came, Mr. Hueston." "Merciful Heavens," said Miriam, with a white, scared face, "we are lost; out in this wild of snow, too, and night coming on." "We are in no danger," said Ilueston in a reassuring voice; "it is plain that I hare taken the wrong road, but I know just where I missed it The nights are light now, so we will be home in an hour. You ladies can endure the cold that long, can you not? It is not very intense, and you are both so well protected. Those heaters at your feet are not cold yet" And then Miriam became herself again, and she laughed at her fright, and talked and jested until they were far on their right road towards home. "There is no danger so near town from wolves, is there, Mr. Ilueston?" asked Adah in an undertone. "No; I-think not "Why?" "I have heard people say since I have been here that this has been a long, haM winter, and that these animals have often of late come down out of the great forests and prowled in droves about the open country, and I thought a while ago that I heard them howling." "I think you only fancied that" Adah was uneasy. She kept looking about her constantly. At last she grasped Will Hueston's arm and whispered hoarsely: "What are those over yonder, that gain upon us so and are coming straight to us?" Will lookeJ, saw them, and muttered: "Yes, curse them! they are wolves!" and he whipped his horse, which plunged ahead at a frightful rate. Miriam looked now, and understood too, and clung to Will, imploring him to save her, nearly destroying the little presence of mind he had. Adah sat by his side in silence. She asked at last: "Is there danger?" "Not much, I think. Our ho.-se is not tired, and very fleet, and we can not be more than three miles from town. They will not follow us much further." Another mile was gone over. ."They have gained on us so," said Adah again. "It's the truth," said Will, "and I have not even a revolver."

Then he added, the next minute: "If I do have to give myself up to satisfy them, you two keep right ahead. You will soon be Bafe now." "Oh, Willi" moaned Miriam; "to have you die that way would be such a Bhock to me. I could not survive It. And yet Oh, Will! I must be saved, must I not? You would not let me die such a death! Oh, God! Will, you will be too late. Don't you see they are dragging me from the sleigh?" shrieked his affianced wife. Then Adah spoke: "For shame, Miriam Woodruff, to try to hurry him to such a death. He shall not die for you. You are not worthy of so noble a sacrifice. I will go in his stead." "No, you will not" be answered, "for, don't you see? right ahead are the lights from town." "And look, Will," shouted Miriam, "they are turning back. Ah! Adah knew they would. That is why she was so brave." But Will Ilueston knew better, and he said in alow voice to her as he helped her out: "So you would have died for me, Adah? Was that also for humanity's sake?" "I am so coid," was the answer; "please let me go on." The next day Ilueston received news that bis mills and factories, which were all he had, were burned, an J bis agent wrote him that he had neglected the insurance and let it run out. So he went to Miriam and said, after explaining tbe news: "So you eee I am a poor man." "I am sorry. Will, for I loved you dearly; but you know I can not marry you now. I would not endure the life of a poor man's wife." "Then our engagement is broken?" "Ye?, Will; but I shall still be your friend." Then be sought Adah and told her all, and finished up with a declarations "I love you Adah, and believe that I have from tbe first morning I saw you. I know that I am not deceived in you as I was in Miritm. Will you be my wife, darling?" . And the woman that had loved him in secret so long answered "Yes." "And you will confess now that those times you wfte willing to risk your life for me, that you would not have done it quite so quickly for an one else?" "Yes, I confess." Tbey took Miriam home, and Adah was married there. On Will's return home he found' that his property was burned, but there bad been a mistake made about the insurance. He realized a large amount, built ud his factories again, and is now one of the wealthiest men in his state. Miriam married a man she did not love for his money. He speculated and lost the greater part of It Miriam comes to spend a month of every year with Adah, and Will Ilueston never sees them together without thanking God for the blunder that rid him of Miriam, and gave him the other one of The Two Cousins."

Iluslness iu the local merchandise markets opened up briskly to-day, with a fair promise of an improved market throughout the week. In the grocery market general goods were firm, and trade very satisfactory In volume. Sugars were the main feature In attracting attention. They were active and Jc higher, with a strong market at the close of the day's work. The grain market wat dull and weak, with quotations lower all around. Wheat was lower and depressed under a farther decline at seaboard and lower Liverpool markets, us reported by private dispatches. Offerings are rather more free than on Saturday, at a decline of lc on cash and Vfi on futures. Demand Is light, mostly from millers, shippers being to a great extent off the market, as it Is Impossible to obtain cars to move the grain they have on hand. Corn was very quiet and prices a shade easier. White is more freely of fered, with only a small demand for that or any other grale. Oats were very quiet, with scarcely any demand. Flour was quiet, but steady, with a fair consumptive demand. Provisions were weaker and prices easier, the demand lelng extremely light. Country produce was generally unchanged. Eggs were weak and a shade lower, and poultry was dull.
