PHILOSOPHY, Her matchless eyes are deeply dark And veiled by silken lashes, l But in t heir depths for me no spark Or ray of love-light flashes. So from them I will turn away And cease my idle dreaming, And look on eyes less bright if they With love for me axe beaming. Her smile is like the radiant sheen That lights the golden morning, But ne’er forme has it been seen Her beauteous face adorning? So I will prize no more its light Or vainly seek to win it, But try to gain a smile less bright If love for me be in it. Her voice’s wondrous melody One fain would hear forever: But words of tenderness to me That voice has spoken never. Bo to its tones I close mine ear, Deciding, on reflection. A voice less sweet I’d rather hear ll' it speak true affection. THE PROFESSOR'S FRIEND A Social Idyll. “Hulda!” suddenly exclaimed the professor, stopping. Could it be that the girl whom he was to marry had not been listening? Perhaps it was easy not to listen on a day like this. The early violets filled the air. A bird sang a rapturous melody to its mate. A cluster of pale lilacs almost touched her dress on the bench where they sat. But the professor had been talking of Guy Grampion. "And. you see,” he began again, “Guy Grampion is so much to me. "We have been so much to each other for so many years. It began at school. Then there were our college days together—” “Yes.” Van Ord paused. He had a faint sense of confusion. Hulda, though she did not look at the figure at her side, was conscious of its embarrassment. : How his clothes hung about him. How old he looked. And yet he and Grampion were of the same age. Was this what the life of science, the life of a scholar, did for a man? What was that he was saying now ? “I had so hoped you would like j Guy—” She turned upon him at that, her girl’s face almost brutal for a gash. “Guy, Guy and Guy again! Can one hear nothing else? Ah, lam tiled of 1 the old refrain at last!” She had risen, trembling, tumbling the flowers he had brought her from her lap to the ground. And in an instant she was gone, leaving the professor but the memory of the steel-like light in her eyes, the curved twitchings of her red, open lips. A sigh broke from him. Life hitherto had been simple. Now how complicated had all the universe become. Until this time the horizon had been bounded by the walls of the laboratory, the library. Into this secluded, shrine-like quietude only one strong emotion had come—there had been friendship for Guy Grampion. But now there was first love, cataclysmic, as every virgin force. * * * * * * “My dear fellow,” said Grampion, “you must not urge your fiancee to like me if she is not so inclined. Forced gifts are of no worth.” He was twisting the ends of his • moustache over an uncertain smile that ■ had lodged-itself on his -Ups? It was j the day after the scene under the lilacs. Van Ord had resolved to tell his friend nothing and had ended bv telling all. “But I—” “But ou have a moral right to compel her to like me? No, you were npt go' ;g to ay that. But I say it for, you. You picked her up twelve years j ago, on a—curbstone.” “Guy!” “Oh, that is as good away to define , the situation as any other. Os the ■ founding, with her promises of Bohemian i beauty, you made, by education, a fair ' simile of a great lady. When this is ■ achieved you issue for a short space , from your laborious seclusions; you | see your work in its hour of perfection. I You love it and—her. Well, as a pay- I ment it seems to you the least that she should love your friend. But, then, you see, all life is ingratitude.” “Guy!” exclaimed Van Ord again, with the accent of pain. “Here she comes herself through the garden. She walks well-a rare gift in woman. Oh, yes, she las the seductions. It will not be easy to you to leave her to-morrow.” “It will be very bitter.” They stood side by side as Hulda ap- ! proached the long open window. Van Ord made a motion to go forward to meet her. She checked him with a gesture. She advanced leisurely with ' her swinging step. Her glance was I fixed intently, calmly, on the wide embrasure of the window. It made a j frame for the figures of both men—Van ■ Ord, spare, emaciated, spiritualized, all superfluous flesh and all color worn j away by the discipline of thought, the life of the thinker; Grampion, larger, j restless, with nervous, njasterful hands ' and perspective in his eyes that defied j sounding. When she was quite opposite Van; Ord did a frank, a spontaneous, a char- j acteristic thing. He took the slight i feminine hand placed it in the mascu- j line palm hanging beside him. “You may not like each other,” he ’ said, “but you must learn to. You। must. I place you in each other’s caie while lam beyond the c a.” He gave me one of bis rare, sweet laughs. For a moment he looked like a boy. “Os each I shall ask, on my return, strict account of the other.” The locked palms fell apart, each j conscious of the other. Hulda passed into the house. One soundless word had formol on I her lips. “Imbecile!” | ♦ * * * * The door opened, a stream cf light poured into the darkness. Thi»re was a ; short parley and then the doi.r closed again. The stranger had been admitted. He walked into the sitting-room that was a library at the same time. It struck him as smaller than when he had last seen it, and was it not shabbier? Van Ord was rich enough. Great Powers! That a man, having such opportunities,should contentedly live the life of a mole in a

village of 2,000 inhabitants, whose ’ dwellings, as he had diived in the 1 twilight from the station, had stared out ’white and bare as chalk-pits among the dry stems and boles of the winter trees. And all this secrificial ottering of self (pr the sake of a scientific discovery that the world might refuse to accept when it was given it I” “Guy!” Van Ord entered, caught his friend’s hands. He had thrown one arm over Grampion’s shoulder. He smiled, he laughed, the tears stood in his eyes. “Guv? You? Why did you not let me know? How came you? When? Hulda ?” His grasp tightened vise-like. “Not ill ?” The other had kept silence. Van Ord, confused by joy, had not noticed. Now he repeated the last question, blanching. Grampion broke in. “I came here for a fixed purpose. A certain question has arisen in my—law practice. I came to tell you the tale I and to ask your opinion.” “ A strange idea to come to me I To • me who has been living practically for j vears a thousand miles out of the I • world!” Grampion’s mouth twitched into something like a smile. “For an opinion on this tale it is not necessary to live a thousand miles inside of it. I’ll make the tale short. Arc you giving me your attention?” Hei leaned lightly with his shoulders j against the bare, high mantel. The ■ lamp-light fell on Van Ord’s face, raised ■ in the listening attitude. “There are two men concerned in this story. Strangely enough, two men situated all their.lives as—we have been. They were boys at college— mates together. They were Castor and Pollux, Damon and Pythias. Such friendships j sometimes arise from the impact of two } diametrically opposed forces of charac-i ter. The one was like you. That is, a j chevalier without reproach. The other ; was—like me. As boys, the one was j always falling into some more or less : heinous offense, the other saving the ! culprit from castigation. Later, the cul- । prit owed everything—everything, you understand—to the other. He had a certain facile gift of pleasing—women especially. He made his way well enough. But the friend was always at । the back. And then, you see, there was ; this tremendous fact of the friend’s love i —the love of Jonathan for David. He j would have given everything, every- ! thing he possessed, would this Jonathan — everything? — excepting one thing. You see the matter becomes interesting here. That one thing was put—once—into the unworthy friend’s j gr»sp. Placed there — mind you — | i almost by the other’s own foolhardy, I primitive confidence in the unalienable I constancy and faithfulness of friendship; | of love —” He stopped. Van Ord was standing. 1 Their eyes met and crossed. A question rose from the depths of Van Ord’s being to that glance. Os articulate word there was none. At last Grampion turned bis head impatiently. “Yes. To make a long story short, I I married Hulda a month ago.” The ticking of the clock, was loud as j a cathedral bell. ! “You say nothing, Van Ord. Well. I am glad yen take it so quietly. And I yet what could you say? You should [ not have left a girl whom you loved and i who had promised to marry you with friends in Europe, while you. presumably, came back to earn the right to marry, and after being abroad long enough to take your ward from her governesses, to show her something of I life, to fall in love with her, came back |to complete the experiments on your । great discovery. The lover should have ' come here first. The man of science , after. You trusted to the appearance ■ that your best friend and the girl you I were engaged to marry had not found 1 aught but a strong dislike for each i other. You should not so have trusted. : : You should not have trusted at all. I | brought Hulda home and you will find I me at my old quarters.” I Still only the ticking of the clock. A I moment more Grampion waited, hat in ‘ hand. Then he turned and went out, i and the door closed behind him. There had been a heavy fall of snow the night before and all that morning. The deadened thud of snow-shovels I punctuated, now and then, the thick, shadowed stillness of the city. The | sky hung low. When the door opened Hulda turned her head. She had been waiting for hours for Grampion’s step. The ex- ! donation that had been ready to fall ! from her lips was there. It was not Grampion. There was a fraction of a moment for which she did not recognize Van Ord. She was a woman of strong nerve. In her blood was the hardihood of the class from which she had sprung —a class living nearer the soil than the Van Ords and the Grampions who had made I her what she now was. But her breath I was cnilled as she caught the look of han Ord’s face. What could he do to her? she thought swiftly. Nothing! Yet she shrank back a little, tangling h r feet in the lengths of her silken ti iiin. “You were waiting for your husband?” It was the first time Van Ord ■ had spoken since the night before, i “You need not wait for him. He came tome —you know that?—and told me your double treachery’. Ido not care for yours. That is, I could not harm you nor blame you. Inherited tendencies are not withstood. To be a light- , of-love is in your veins. Y’ou betrayed , me, you would have betrayed him and I you will betray other men. As for him, |he was my friend. He was loyal till ! you corrupted him. He changed to me ; when tempted by you. He was the , deepest affection of my life. I thought i I loved you; perhaps I was mistaken. I can forgive you; I could not forgive him. I followed him last night and I killed him. It was near the station. He was waiting for his train; it was dark and I dragged his body into the bushes. It will be found to-day. It wiil be found by the time I give myself up to justice. Don’t shriek; ring the bell. lam going now. Justice will come soon enough!” As peal upon peal rang through the house aid Hulda fell back upon the floor in hysterics and the rapid footsteps

’of frightened servants approache Van i Ord turned again toward the doo— As he reached it he raised hisV^k hand confusedly to his side. Ha st; gered, reached out blindly and drop* forward with his face to the ground.; —’ When they lifted him life was neat gone. The flame flickered a mome still and went out. . —a The doctors called it a sudden failu of the heart. — New York Mercury. MH Petting. The majority of women love Jts^ie petted, but not one in fifty is the happy recipient of petting, nevertheless. I was much interested iu a group of young women at Block Island one summer. I I boarded at the same hotel with them and we were on quite friendly terms before the Reason was over. One young married woman was brimful of self-help. When her handsome husband came up from the city on .Saturdays I took pati ticular pains to watch them. It was as | I had expected. He seldom waited upon I her; she seemed always to prefer helping ! herself. If he brought a shawl she im- ' mediately took it from him and vigorj ously swung it about her shoulders. If ' she wanted a chair she rushed and procured one. She would not give the man an opportunity to show the gallantry that I feel sure he possessed. “Little goose,” thought I, “God helps' , those who help themselves,” but nlen don’t. Strange to say, I learned n.«kr- ' wards that no woman loved petting; - more than this same little wife, : some unaccountable reason she could not resist the everlasting impulse to take care of herself. A sweet girl, tall, slender and blueejed, was continually being waited upon. Over the rocks she was invariably helped by some kindly hand. Had she not been sure of the hand I am cerj tain she would not have gpne 1 over the rocks. If her handkerchief | fluttered to the ground the young gen- ; tiemen present were in danger of bumping heads in their mad desire to restore it to its fair owner, and I declare, in the absence of escorts, the ladies would ■ stoop and lift it from the sand as a matter of course. Out fishing, the very sea dogs themselves vied with each other ’ for the sweet opportunity of baiting her hook. All her life she ha^l unconsciously demanded petting and devotion. She was a lovely character, gentle, refined and sensible, but you could not be with her five minutes without feeling she was born to be waited upon. She has been married three years. I Her husband is still her lover, and pets her to her heart’s content. Those women who complain cf a lack of devotion on the part of their bus- : bands did not commence right They should have trained their lovers. i Young ladies, my advice to you is—;be not only willing to accept the helping hand, but quietly demand it. A little appealing helplessness goes a great way with a man. It really doesn't pay to be too smart. —New York Mercury. Going to Meeting in a Storm. The story goes that once a fearful storm beset the valley of South Lewiston at Garcelon’s Ferry. It snowed and snowed and Friday passed and Saturday caaue only to’ se< wiitrrrng snowflakes and Sunday came and lo! the sun and its rays fell upon a trackless earth, with no fences and no roads. James Joslyn was a church-goer. He was essentially such, and besides being a Christian, he, like Enoch, walked with God in daily life. On Sundays he rarely if ever was absent from church. i This Sunday he decided to go to church as usual. They told him that the feat I was impossible. Nobody could get there, and it would be useless to trv. He diil not listen to the expostulations, । but hitched his horse and drove away. , They watched him over the hill, battling the drifts, and decided finally that perhaps he might get there. It was close to right when he returned, having been gone all day. “Did you get there?” was asked. His reply was in the affirmative. "What about it? How was it? Did i you have a meeting?” e had a blessed meeting,” said he, “we had a blessed meeting." “And who was there?” was asked. “Only Deacon Davis and J,” was his answer, “but we had a blessed meeting.” And that high-backed sleigh in the barn i- the sleigh that took him to his “blessed meeting" that required an entire day and that but one attendant besides himself. — Lewiston (Me.) Journal. IV here the Reporter Came In. “You know Miss ,who lives on Seventeeth street?” asked a maiden with short, curly, blonde hair of a companion with roguish brown eyes as the two exchanged confidduces in the corner of a Fifteenth street car the other afternoon. “Slighty,” replied she with the brown eyes. “Do you know how she became so popular in society ?” pursued she with the short hair. “Haven’t the least idea.” “Well, you know she was at the seashore last summer. She had the good luck to become aquainted with a newspaper reporter, and he floated her in the ‘swim.’ When anything took place her name was foremost among those who participated. Everybody saw it, and she beqome the ‘go.’” “And does the newspaper reporter continue in her good graces ?” innocently inquired the brown-eyed maiden. “Horrors! No, you silly goose. She has no further use for him.” “That's real mean,” observed the other. “Now, do you know.” continued she with the short hair, “that I have resolved to become acquainted with some newspaper reporter when I go to the shore next summer?” and then these two girls, barely in their teens, fell to chewing gum in a manner that would have made the face of a monkey ache. Mamma —You naughty girl! You’ve eaten every cooky there was on the plate. I told you you might have three. Little Edith —Yes, but you didn’t tell me which three. So to be sure I’d get the right ones I cleaned tb« deck.

rour-Leaven Clovers. I A carriage full of girls was passing at । a comfortable race along a country road When one of the occupants, leaning forward from the back seat and touching ” the driver, cried out, excitedly: * “Oh, stop! Stop! Let me get out! There's a four-leaved clover!” The young lady who was driving "Stopped the horse, and followed with her | eyes the rapid motions of her companion, I who had leaped out and was scrambling r.ip a bank by the roadside. It was covered by a thick mat of clover, but the ! Ifeeker, without a moment's hesitation, laid her hand upon the stem she wanted, broke it off and returned to the carriage. It was, indeed, a four-leaved clover, large and perfect, each leaflet prettily marked with a whitish V, and the extra one scarcely smaller than the others. ; Sho was Immediately overwhelmed with 1 questions and exclamations of astonish- | ment. “How had she been able to see it ’ In passing, surrounded as it was by a thousand other leaves so nearly resembling it?” everybody wished to know. “Why, I couldn’t help seeing it,” was ' the laughing answer; “it stood right up and nodded at me. ” But the other girls didn't think the mystery lessened by this answer. They ' had been looking in the same direction, i and they had not seen it nod its luck- I crowned head to themThe hteky four-fold leaf, always a ; favorite, is jusf now especially popular. Its use as a decorative design in jewelry. upon silverware, and in painting and embroidery, has, perhaps, called attention to a recent fashion, to place inside a silver iocket with one side of glass, laud give to a friend. But it is a pleasing quest in wh ch i the seeker often discovers many lovely i natural objects besides the one he is look i g for. He icarns, too, how freakish Nature । is in the disposal of her rarities He i may search the fields for weeks, and ! never see a clover leaf not divided by I the regulation rule of three, or ho may j find clovers in fives, sevens, even nines ■ and thirteens, but neieroneln sou then, suddenly, when he has given up hope or forgotten all about it. he will chan e upon not one sou -leaved clover, but ’wo or three or a dozen: for it is quite usual for them to grow in colonies, and sometimes a whole field of clover will display a marked tendency to grow by fonts. Whether such abundance makes the fortune of the lucky farmer who owns the field, we have never heard. — YuutlCs Companion. “Dinner for Two, Appetite foi Ono!” S»i<l a dyspeptic to the waiter, ordering for self and friend.
