NAUGHTY.
Soint-body's lips were close to mine Thus mpted 1 couldn't resist. Kouuish and rosy, a (tweet little mouth
Was suddenly, softly kissed. Some-bo-ly's eyes looked up and frowned With Mich a reproving glance. "If kisses were wicked ?'r I asked my pet
Toeu the eyes begau to dance. Ainl smiling, the little maid answered, As I knelt there at her feet, "They must be a little bit naughty.
Or they never would be so sweet."
Two Promises.
BY L. A, CHURCHILL.
"You will surely wait for me?" He r.»ked tbe question as if it bad never been asked before as if I had never answered him then. "1 will surely wait for you."
There was a sound of rapid hoof-beats on the frozen ground, and stood gazing steadily after tbe figure on horseback until distance and tbe darkness abut it out from me.*
We were alone now, the stars and tbe night, and 1, quite alone. There was only one other person to me in the whole world that uigbt. Tbe other person was Roger Sherman, and Roger Sberman had just left me and so 1 was entirely alone with tbe night and the stars. Tbe night seemed to have lound a voice, and continually questioned: "She will surely wait for him?" and continually the stars twinkled back the answer: "She will surely wait."
I do not know bow long I stood there. I quite forgot time and place. Forgot my b9nds were numb with cold, disregarded the fact that my blood seemed congealing, until some one touched my arm, and a voice said "It is too cold tor you to stand here, Aline come hi." "Is it yon, Roy?" I said, with a start. "Yes, 1 believe I am chilly," and I turned and walked into tbe house before him. "I told Nancy to have afire in vonr room," be said, as he shut the ball door. "1 think it may be warm there by this time. Goad night."
As full as my heart was of my own grief, 1 could but think bow thoughtful mid kind he was, and thanked him siucerely as I bade him good-nigbt. "You will surely wait for hliri ?J' crackled the tire and my heart made answer, "I will surely wait."
The biaza died out, aud a, mass of rqd coals was before n& Locking into thoif brightness, the ptroent %rfeaied to fad© away from me, and In a retrospective dream mv past life came back, and my mind and thought* war® busy wit* scenes of vanished years. I saw myself a wee girl, Just beginning to won4er at tbe strange and beautiful things with which my little world—it seemed so large to u» then—waa jtilled a little older, huntrng for fb© wild flowed of Rprhw, oagtyly searching for summer's berries antf gathering from amid the autumn leavesthe brown nuts, in whkh alt childish hearts delight being drawn ove? the smooth, white winter road* td ifctiool, seated on a alfed which waa named forme, F'Aline." "A terribly hrtydenish girl!" some of ouf eeighpors »\id, while others Its** reflup^ in speech, declared that "If there ever was a com bin' tomboy that Aline Miller was one."
The companion of mv youthful joya and sorrows—aye, ana of my later ones—was w' Sftianer, ray adopted brother, who baift £ved with my father ever s.nce I «'uTd remember. It was always he who brought me the bluest violet*, the prettiest *oaes, the jnost deHulotrt nift:}wfbi»!driw mo-op |hl!Msl?4, and wsi rtiy'chftmplHn oil all occasions 1 think there was something different from m*st boys in Riy. His manner was cheerfully qwlet,
it
flie's
I may usS that
expression. Tenderly grave, one look in lr,* face would assure on© that he might be trusted. "Too mature for his years,' my flitbef u»ed to say, with a shake of his head, and I would wonder at such times if being mature was anything so very dreadful, and hoped Roy would leave it off. He was about three years older than I, aud I used to think, maybe would grow mature too when I was as old as fie, and then my father would shake his head about me.
One incident of those bygone days stood out In boldness as I looked Into the glowing grato. It was when I was about twelve, and Roy nearly flfteon years of age, that we stood together watching two robins who were building their nest In tree few feet from us. "I wonder," said Roy, in his quaint, quiet way, "if Mr. Robin baa been waiting all his bird life for that little mate of his. If BO other robin would quite All her plaoe?"
I did not know how to answer him, 00 asked "What do yoo think about it?" "I think be has waited," he answered. "Watted for her juat aa will wait for you. If she had not been found, he would have had no mate no real one, I mean. You will alwaya be my real mate. Aline, and I shall surely wait for you."
The embers took on a gray hue. My grate was filled with as haa. I arose and undressed. I pulled the window curtain aside. SUli there was only one person in all tbe world to me. My child
1
hood had paaaed before me aa if it bad been another's. Roger Sherman as K^ne, and we were alone, tbe stars and the night, and I and my iife went on without him without Roger. You know how it waa. You understand how it is when you must laugh and talk, and go on with your daily tasks when your heart seems breaking for very loneliness. To long with a longing that nothing can satisfy now, for just one word from Hps which ajioke to many to you in the yesterdays, which aeem so fkr behind but are so lately paaaed. To miaa every hour the voice, the step, the entire
resence
which brought aud took away sunshine and Anally to have your grief settle into a dear remembrance, and to learn to cease dreading the to morrows.
How kind Roy was In those days! He was a busy man. His patients—for he was now the village doctor—took nearly all his time, but he found a few minutes in every few hours to do some pleasing thing for me to read me some bright or beautiful passage from the new books he was continually bringing home to run in from his chaise with a letter he bad called for at the poatofflce, to talk with aae of Roger and his success la that far away India, where he had gone to be my eomforter in a thousand ways, my dear, helpful brother in everything.
Dear old Roy, how noble it was in you, to show me only smiles, when your heart must have been so heavy! How self-denying and brave in you to refuse to let one of the sbadow3 which I now know lay so darkly along your pathway make my lot less bright!
How long a year seems when we look forward to it! How short when we have left it behind, and look back upon it!
One and two, and then three years passed. They were pleasant, peaceful years to me. Roger Sherman's letters were constant and interesting. He was prospering finely, and at last spoke of the business which he had been sent to transact as being nearly in a state to safely leave. My joy at this news knew no bounds. But the months slipped away, one after another, and still I waited for him.
It was on the fourth summer of Rog er'a absence that my health seemed to be giving way. I grew thin and white, ana a listiess, tired feeling kept me on the sofa the greater part of the time. "You need change and sea air, Aline," Roy said. My parents agreed with him in this opinion, and so it happened that very soon my mother and I found ourselves settled for some weeks beside the cool, beautiful sea.
It was there I first met Milicent Walters. I love to think of the girl. Just as we go back in memory to a lovely painting, or a beautiful poem, and enjoy it afresh, so I go back in thought to her and seem to enjoy anew the sweetness of the influence she threw around me. There .was a cheerfulness about her which invariably roused me when I was prone to be downcast, a repose in her in inner which rested and soothed me, whan my invalid fretfulness took possession of me.
As my strength came back, we, Millicent and I, took long walks together, hunting for shells, gathering the damp, green sea weed for no better reason than tnat we liked to throw it out on tbe receding wave*, and watch it drifting away, we knew not where, or sat for hours listening to and watching tbe water, which seemed so like a living thing as it swept up to our leet with its roar and dash, always coming and go ing, going and coming.
I used to think her very beautiful as she sat with the breezes making merry with her brown hair, and her blue eveB shining with truth and pleasure.
She was one of that sort of people to whom all tell their secrets, and I gave her my confidence readily. I told her of my engagement, of how I had met the man 1 was to marry, in New York, when I was on a visit to my aunt there. Of his beauty and goodness and devotion. Of his going to India on business for his uncle, and his brilliant prospects, and the possibility of his returning ere long. I finished my recital without once having mentioned the name of my lover.
And what is your hero called, little Alinet" asked Millicent. I cannot tell what caprice took possession of me, but I only know that 1 answered laugbingJy:
Qh! I am going to make yoti guess his name. MiUS\ I will give yoti two weeks in which to find the right one."
What waa uy delight to learn that Millicent ^had spent a year In India! She bad gone there with her father, who had business there.
Many things that Roger had failed to write, did she tell me of that strange, far away land. Years before, down by the little brook which was at the foot of my father's garden, I used to sit for hours, listening to the wonderful stories told me of ghost and genii. And now, equally charmed, I gave undivided at tentiou, while my girl friend spoke of a country as strange to mo as habitation Of ghost or geuii could be, but instead of the little brook's ripple, I had at my feet the rush of the mighty sea. "Roger is coming home!" thundered the surf. The waves langhlngly repeated "Roger ia coming home!" screamed the seagulls: "Roger ia coating home." And tbe air waa full of the music of that glad cry, "Roger Is coming, comtng home."
The letter, in t?y pocket, the letter itoy it- for walk-dad to me and which .1 had \,a.l so
Jtnany
On the evening of that glad day, tbe
go
down. We.cUsabed upou what we had named "Subset RCXM,""wttd looked,in Mleircl fc aee the western sky flushed with aplendor for a Urne, and then take, on leaden look as the twilight faded ami deepened into night. Our rock waa beyond tb&up?al haanta of atroltera and to-night tbfcre was no one near t». A fresh breeze came up from tbe water, aad I shivered with a slight obill. **Yoa areoo\d, child,"Mid Millicent. Very tenderly aha wrapped my cloak around me, and then with her arm around my waist, abe told rae In her aweet voice of him to whom aha waa en-
*^Oe, too, ia in India, Aline," aha said "and he, too, ia coining home aeon. 1 do not know how soon, but before long, his letter aaya. And now," she continued play folly, "I am going to leave yon to goeaa about hia name, aa I hare guessed About another. I cannot clearly atate what bis business ia, for 1 do not rightly understand, and only know that father said it waa a good and honorable one."
When had congratulated her, and laughingly decided that leaving me to guess her lover's name waa only fair play, a sort of huah fell npon ua, and neither apoke for a time. I remember how cloaely the mist which had come
up from tbe sea seemed to hover around us with what a hoarse sound the waves, which almost touched our feet, swept in how far away the lights wbiob were gleaming here and there along tbe shore looked, and bow precious waa the near presence which alone saved the sadneaa of that evening hour from becoming gloom.
Tbe long dreamed of day, the day on 'which Riger was coming home, had come. I waa already dressed to receive him dressed as he used to like to see me, out it was not time to start for th«e station yet, and so I sat looking out of my window, waiting for Millicent, who was to come to my room when she was dressed. There was a brooding stillness in the heavy air, and the water, stretching out before my gaze, seeming to sweep in and recede with a soft stealthy motion.
When Millicent and I had started, and had nearly reached the station, we met our landlord hurrying toward home. He stopped, aud said, in an excited tone: "Come back with me. There haa been a fearful aocident a half mile below tbe station. Bridge broke through and a whole tram wrecked!"
I wonder I did not swoon. I wonder that I oould walk back so calmly, with that dreadful, sickening feeling, a feeling asif I were dying, bearing me down. "We thought we might not be able to get more than two doctors here without delay," explained the landlord, as we went along, "and it would be better for them if their patients were all together, so I have left orders for the bodies to be brought to my house as long as there's room. Women's hands will be sadly needed."
In the hall we stood and watched, Millicent and I—watched for one faoe, while other faces, whose ghastliness will never cease to haunt me, were carried by me.
It came at last. We followed the men as they carried their burden up a flight of stairs, and saw them lay it down. In spite of the blood-soaked hair which covered his forehead, in spite of the long beard, I knew him. I had waited long for him, and at last Roger had come home.
All was done that could be, but life waa gone. "He is quite dead," was the doctor's verdict.
By and by we were alone with the body, Millicent and I. Looking at me from acress the couch on which it lay, Millicent said, in a voice full of heartbreak: "You will not be obliged to te'l me the name of your hero. Roger Sherman was j*our lover and mine, little Aline."
Again the night came down, and the sky crimsoned and grew dark. Again we ^at on the shore, but uttering no words, Millicent and I. 'Quite dead!" screamed tbe sea gulls. "Your lover and mine, littlo Aline!" sobbed the moaning waves. Roger had come home.
Three times had the summer rosed bloomed and faded, three times had tbe winter snows fallen and melted away since that eventful season by the seashore.
It was at the close of a Sabbath day. We were seated in the summer house, Roy and I, and he had just finished read "Enoch Arden" to me. Coming close to my side he said: "Aline, I have been wondering of late if I must end my days In waiting for my mate. I cannot hope to be crired for as tenderly as the memory of another is, but I will be another Philip, content to be loved a little after Enoch.' Content to spend my life in trying to make happy one whom I have loved since childhood, if you will say the words I so long to hear."
I looked in his earnest eyes, and I knew that I loved him truly. Roger Sherman long been doubly dead to me. Killed by that cruel blow on his forehead, plain by the dark stain on his honor.
Slowly but surely I had at last really learned to know Roy Sumner, and to value him at his worth, and now I realized fully how dear he had become to me.
I held out my hands. They were taken in his warm clasp, and with the moonlight falling across our path, the scent ef blossoms filling all theair about us, we went up the garden path together.
When the fever-demon was ravaging so many Southern homes, I took up a paper, and among the names of those who ministered with untiring faithfulness to the sick on ^s, I read that of Millicent Walters.
Failing not for sorrow, faltering not for the blasting of her cherished hopes, she is going bravely on with her life work. Among the afflicted of the earth she is what Longfellow pictured his Evangeline to be and as I muse upon her noble character and labor, over and over again in my mind are repeated the words '"Blessed are the merciful.-'

Lemon juice is also beneficial, softening the hard skin so that with a blunt knife considerable portion of the corn may be removed. The easiest way to apply it ia to cut off a piece of lemon, then nick it so as to let in tbe toe with the corn and bind on at night. Repeat twice or thrioe. A good corn plaster oan bo made by dissolving by beat two ounces of yellow wax in twoouncea of purified ammonia, aud, just before it is oold, add six drachma of acetate of copper.
