So she came to us, a few _months
later ; came to the old farm house,
with her air, blonde face, her float
ing yellow hair, her trunks full of
rich and beautiful robes; and at the
first touch of her soft, velvety hand,
an instinctive dislike arose up in my
heart, and I shrank,from her.
Oh, I did strive to conquer my
causeless aversion, and to be 'her
friend and sister ! I had longed for
her coming ; thought with' delight of
having a companion of my own sex,
and near my own age, beneath the
roof, and had thrown wide open the
door of my heart, to welcome her.
But the first sound of her law, rip
pling voice, and the touch of her
hand shut fast the door, and _never
did it open to her again.
But into every other heart beneath
the homestead roof she crept 'with
her subtle serpentine charms, until,
by father mother Dean the hired
help, and ' Brother Max, she was held
up as 'a paragon of all that is perfect,
I tried to hide my dislike from al
eyes, and in no way could I neglect
or slight my orphan cousin. Yet
she knew that I. hated her; and
though she caressed and fondled me,'
she hated me in h& heart., I knew.
I did not speak, when I Saw her at
my side that evening, but after
moment I turned and walked up the
path, and seemed to be examining
my flowers, thus to rid myself of her
presence. I heard her speak, in her
soft, oily-tones, after I had left heri
and looking up I saw Max, and Mr.
Carter the village merchant, ap
proaching the gate, where Norma
leaned, in graceful languor. Mr.
Carter was a middle-aged, well-to-do
merchant, with kindly brown eyes
and a silky-beard, and a warm man
ly heart that had laid its whole store
of affection at Norma's feet.
He owned the finest hottse in the
village, and I knew my cousin meant
to accept him, if she could do no bet
ter—knew that she enCouraged him.
when Max was not by—Max whoiii
she had bewitched into a state of
blind, insane truth and honor. 1
knew that she did not care for him,
that she had led him on only for her
own amusement, and to annoy me,
and show her poWer ; but Max was
blind, and I knew tow useless it
would be to reason with him until
his eyes were opened. So I left him .
in - the hands of Providence, and
trusted that all would be well in the
end.
Mai had a letter in his hand; and
Norma reached out her slender palm,
with a pretty little giture, as he ap
proached. .
"A letter for me sir, I know," she
said. "I have not had one in many
weeks. Come, give it to me."
But Max shook his head, as he
smiled down upon her. "Not for
you Miss Norma, but for Rebecca;
and I fear she would seriously object
to your perusing it," passing the let
ter to me, with a mischievous glance.
Norma lifted her sky-blue eyes to
my face with an inquiring look,
which seemed to say : "Can it be
possible that you have a lover and I
have not been informed of it ? and
then turned to Max again.
"But you have another," she said,
"Mal surely is mine."
"Ye', almost yours," he said, in a
low tone, "since it is mine. You may
read it and he passed it to her.
"Why it Is the twin to Rebecca's!"
she cried, as she turned it over in her
hand, and drew the letter from the
envelope. "And. what Is the signa
ture—Philip Whittier ! Pray, who
may he be?"
"A college friend of mine -one of
the best fellows living," Max said.
But Norma's blue eyes were look
ing over the hills, and she was re
pmfing the name : "Philip Whittier,
Philip - Whittler—where have I heard
that name?"
'Perhaps you may have known
him 1n ,Europe, he has s p ent two
years In a German college.'
As Max said this. a hot flush spread
over Norina'S cheek and brow, and
she turned hastily away.
"No, I think I never heard the
name; it is another I was reminded
of—something similar." And then
she began talking to Mr. Oirter, who
had Mod - patiently;nwalting• this
time. -
The sunset had paled In •the west,
and the stars were beginning to creep

a fe* 'moments later. Mother had

heart in commotion. What If she had

He is nothingtoime." But 1 knew

'Day after day thought it over,

I turned and presented him to Cous

Norma flushed over cheek and
.brow, and her hand trembled , as she
extended it. Philip's.face was cold
and Impassive, atal he barely touch
ed the extended fingers, and bowed
formally. My heart sank, 'and I
could have cried out with Jealous
pain.
*They hare met," I said mentally,
"they have met before, and he has

And so I thought day after day,
night after night, until I looked upon
them as lovers; and I turnet a from
ed
and avoid Philip, believing tall
his attentions to me were prompted
by pique, uud I forced him to seek
the society of Cousin Norma, and
then told myself that he had preferred
her.
Oh, I was mad, insane!, But what
will not a j ealous woman do?
At the first Norma seemed to avoid
him, but alter a few days I saw that
she was exerting all her powers of
fascination to attract him ; and.while
It tortured my heart to see him at
her side, still 1 forced him to De en
tertained by her, and. as fares polite
ness would allow, I shunned bun.
Mr. tAirter, was a 'frequent visitor
atour house; and my heart thrilled
with sympathetic pity as I saw the
pain in his dark eyes as they rested
upon Norma. Norma saw it, too,
and fearful that she was losingground,
I she turned to him again, and sent
the happy liht back to his face.
Max and Philip were off on a hunt
ing- excursion one day when Mr.
N Kt&iown-in•the
worked at some dainty embroidery ;
and feeling myself de trop, 1 arose
and left the room. I could hear their
low voices and left the room. I could
hear their low voices as they chatted
together; and half an hour later,
when Mr: Carter took his leave, a
beautiful ring glistened upon Nor-
Ma's hand. But it was not there
'When Max and Philip , came home.
She had taken it off, that no suspi
cions need be amused.
Mr. Carter called oftener after this,
but Norma paid him little attoniion,
and left him for me to entertain.
• "What a fool that old Carter is!"
growled Max, one evening after his
departure. "Why can't a man see
when there is no hope for him ! I
wonder, if ho supposes that Norma is
to be bought with his gold?"
Perhaps she has given him eneour
,agement ; and she might do worse
thaulo marry him," I said quietly.
Max flamed up. "Oh ! you girls
are all 'envious of Norma," he said
sharply, "and no doubt would be glad
to see her sold to Carter. But any
one with two eyes can see that the
snubs him, and-in no way gives him
any encouragement. But he won't
;lake `no' for an answer. Some men
are fools in affairs of this kind, when
they are sensible upon all other sub
jects."
I smiled but said nothing; and
Max continued : "Carter is a fine
fellow, but nearly old enough to be
Norma's father ; and it isn't likely
a girl with ber attractions would
take up with him. By the way,
wonder it she and Phil ever met be
lore? 1 heard her talking to him the
other day, and from what she said I
judged that she had known him be
fore. I didn't hear much of the eon
versation, and if neither of them
choose to speak of it, lam sure ! shall
not q 'nation them. It's odd, though,
that they should be so secretive. I Llo
hope Phil isn't going . to make a fool
of himself; he's too sensible a fellow,
I hope to run into danger with his
eyes wide (pen. But, after all, I
couldn't wonder at any man's losing
heart to her ; and there is more ex
cuse for him than for Carter."
Half an hour afterward, Philip
came into the room where I was sit
ting alone and straight up to my
chair. I felt myself flushing 'under
the steady gaze of his powerful eyes
as he bent over me.

"I want to know what you mean
by all this coldness, and by so con

both my hands. "I want to know
what I have done to merit your dis
pleasure. Look up into my eyes and
tell me."
I lifted my eyes, and there, just be
hind him, stood Norma. I wrenched
my hands from his clasp and tied
frOm the room, my heart in a wild
tumult of pain and joy.
When we next met! he was coldly
polite—that was all ; and only once
again did he melt toward me. It
was the day of his departure; and
after the adieux had Ikea said I stole
off to the garden to be done. As I
walked down the path, a step sound

"What does she go for?" I asked
myself, and Max at length.
' ' don't know," he said, moodily.
`--"I only know that.she goes to ,the

But•after the eighth day Miticl Nor
ma dlicontimred her daily walk, and
I was more at loss :ban ever to un

But she did not keep me long in
Ignorance. One morning she drop

passed through the room where I was
at work; end as she see.i.ed uncon

passed ft to her, and as I did so ! saw
that ft was heililed "My Darling,"
and the writing . was Philip Whitti-
Ws. Slit saw my face tlusband then
pale, and, coining to , my side," she
pessed her arm about' me, and drew
me down.upon A lounge atone side
of the room.
"Deur cousin" she began, in her
stiffest tones "I feel that I owe you
an explanation ofsome things which
have recently transpired. You think
I have teen endeavoring to Will your
lover from you; but such, I assure
you,is not the case. I knew him In
Germany; he loved me heforehelov
ed you, and .I refused his o ff er of mar
riage ve yeant ago. I have eadeaV
ored to avoid him since our meeting
here, but he again renewed his pro
testations of love, and I again refused
him. He told me that he should
write to me a farewellleSter after his
departure, and I have been myself
to the office, hoping it would escape
your eyes. But for this accident
which put it in your hand, I should
have kept this from you, as I know
it is humiliating to your proud spir
it. But I trust that it will clear me
from any suspicion of treachery in
your eyesi clear cousin."
I threw off her encircling arm, and
arose to my feet.
"Miss Vao Winters .may spare
herself an feeling of pity which she
entertains fcr me upon this subject, "
..
I said haughtily. "3fr. Whitteir
has never been my lover, and it is of
little interest to me who he has made
proposals of marriage to, or how =-
fly times he has renewed them."
I turned and left her; but despite
my indifferent words, my heart lay
like lead in my bosom, and the cer
tainty that worst fears were realized
was-like death to my best and dear
est hopes.
-.Three weeks later, Max came into

"Enlisted 1" I cried; "why he said
only a few
.weeks ago that he never
should enlist until the country was in
greater need than it is now, and he
felt it his duty."
"Yes, I know; bit the country is
in greater need, every day,- and he
has seen his duty; and be is not the
man to stand aloof when duty calls
him.. And, Rebecca, I have enlisted
too. There is a great excitement
down at the village over the last re

there were one hundred names en
rolled to-day, wine among the num

"0 Max !" It was all I could say.
"And now, sister, I want to leave
you - a solemn charge: I know you
do not love our Cousin Norma, but
strive for my sake to love her. ,She
has promised to be my wife when I
return from the war; and I trust that
you will comfort each other daring

Oh ! it was a lonelyhOsehold, that
dreary evening , followleg his depar

days, weeks, and inotiths dragged
away. More -than half the young
men In 'the village and adjoining
towns had gone to the Southern bat ,
tie fields, and the whole world seemed
barren and desolate to, the- waiting
ones at home.
Max wrote long andjoving letters,
to mother, father an to me, and
Norma received one whenever any
other member of the household did ;
but I never saw them; and she never
spoke of them, or of he engagement.
Max had been gone eight months,
when Norma annotniced to our
household tier apprw4ing marriage
with Mr. Carter. nether turned
white, and father looked at her stern
ly.
"But Max said- you, had promised
to he his wife, when he returned,"
mother faltered.
Norma looked up Innocently.
"Dear auntie," she said sweetly, 4 'l
never promised him that. I told
him that I loved him, and regarded
him as one of ,my dearest and truest
friends, and should be very lonely
(luring his absence. I Wag then en
geed to Mr. Carter, but I saw no
need of telling him so and sending
him away despairing. ; I trusted to
time to bring it all right; and no
doubt he will soon forget his love for
me, when he hears of my marriage.
I trust you will all wish me God
speed, and that when I leave this
roof I shall curry with me the bles
ing of each inmate of the dear old
home."
Two weeks later she was married
in the village church, and one hour
afterward a telegram-from Max was
placed in my nands, bidding me, to
conie to him quickly, as be was mor
tally wounded; and I hastily made
my preparations to start upon my
journey the following morning.
From room to room, to and fro,
back and forth, I hastened, g athering
'the few things that I wante d togeth
er. All was confusion in Norma's
deserted' room. Her trunks and
chests were gone, and bits and scraps
that she had thrown aside in packing
were scattered upon the floor.
Something white, down in thecor
ner, where her trunk had stood, at
tracted my attention, and I stooped
and picked it up. It was an envel
ope, addressed in a well-known hand
writing. to "Miss rtebecca.Van Win
ters." Hastily drawing forth the
letter. I recognized the one I had
seen Norma drop months before. Yet
this letter was mute—beginning, "My
Darling," and telling a tale of pas
sionate love. "I know, Rebecim,
how mad I am to speak of this, when
your hand is pledged to another," it
read; but I must tell you that I love
you; with the first, best love of my
life; and it seems to me that you
must have known my love, and that
it was cruel in you to keep me In ig
norance of your betrothal."
My brain was in a' wild whirl of
excitement, when I set forth upon

the hours seemed Years that! I spent

Where Max lay. I found him in a
raging fever, wildly delirious, and ha

"My Darling!" he said, clasping
my hand with his feeble one„ "for

I bent over him, and pressed my
lips upon his pallid cheek. ";Dear

And then I told him the story of the

to her, in a mighty all-absorbinnes

and oiten !spoke of her to me. But
suddenly, and without warning, she

that she had mistaken her feelings

Van 'Winters such a letter as I hope
to heaven I. may neA*again be call

I think I was a fiend while I wrote
that letter.
"I left Germany soon after and nev

Attou'r BARBER*.
Mark Twain's Expertanee in a
Barber's Bbop.—How to Get
Even.
All things change except barbers,
the ways of barbers and the surroun
dingsof barbers. These never change.
What one experiences in a barber's
shop the that time he enters one, is
1 1 what he always, expalences in bar

his days. I shaved thidmorning

happens--I hurried up, but it was of
no use; he entered the door one little
step ahead of me, and I followed in
on his heels and saw him take the
only empty chair, the.one presided
over by the best barber. It always
happens so. I sat down, hoping that
I might fall heir to the chair belong
ing to the better of the remaining
two barbers, for he had already be
gan combing his uAres hair, while
his comrade was not yet quite done
rubbing up and oiling his customer's
locks. I watched - the probabilities
with strong interest. When I saw
that 710. 2 was gaining on Nu. 1, my
interest grew to solicitude. When
No. 1 stopped a moment to make
change on a bath ticket for a new
comer, and lost ground in 0 .. e race,
my solicitude rose to anxiety. When
No. 1 caught up again, and both be
and his comrade were pulling the
towels away and brushing the pow
der away, from their customers'
cheeks, and it was about an even
thing which would say " Next,!"
first, my very breath stood still with
suspense. But when, at the final
culminating moment. No. 1 stopped
to pass a combs couple of tunes
through his customer's eyebrows, 1
saw that he had lost the race by a
single instant, and 1 rose indignant.,
and quitted the shop to keep from
the hands of No. 2; for I have non:
of that enviabletinuness that enables
a man to look calmly into the eyes
of a waiting barber and tell him he
will wait for his fellow-barber's chat
I stayed out fifteen minutes,and thee
went back, hoping for better luck.—
Of course all the chairs were occupied
now, and four men sat waiting, si
lent, unsociable, distraught; and look
ing bored, as men always do wboare
awaiting their turn in a barber shop.
I set down in one of the iron-armed
compartments of an old sofa, and put
in the time for a while, reading the
framed advertisements of all sorts of
quack nostrums fur dying and color
ing the hair. Then 1 read the names
on the private bay rum bottles; wad
the names and noted the numbers on
the private shaving cups in the pig
eon-holes; -studied the stained and
damaged cheap prints on the walls,
of battles, early presidents, and vo
luptuous, "recumbent sultanas, and
the tiresome and everlasting young
girl putting her grandfather's spec
tacles on; execrated in my heart the
cheerful canary and the destracting
parrot that few barber shops are with
out. Finally, I searched out the least
dilapidated of the last year's illus
trated papers' that littered the foul
centre-table and conned their unjus
tifiable misrepresentationsof old, ior
got ten events.. At iast my turn came.
A voice said, "Next!" and I surren
dered to No. 2, of course. It always
happens so. I said meekly that I
was in a hurry, and it affected him
as strongly as if he had never beard
it. He shoved up my head and put
a napkin under it. He plowed his
lingers Into ray collar and tired a tow

his claws and suggested that it need

it trimmed. He explored again and

told him I had had it cut only a week
before. He yearned over it reflective

I mune back at him promptly with a
'You did!' I had him there. Then
he fell to stirring up his lather, and

cussing the dog fight with the other
barbers, he naturally shovelled con
siderable lather Into my ixiouth with
butlnowing it, but I did. He now
began to sharpen his razor on an old
silspender, and was delayed a good
deal on acenunt of a controversy

had figured at the night before, in

it down his fiirehead, accomplishing
an accurate "pan" behind, and .
brushing the two wings • forward
over his ear: 4 with - nice exactness.,
In the meantime the lather -was dry
ing on my face, and apparently eat

to shave, digging his fingers into my
countenance to stretch the skin,
Making a handle of my nose now aw l

was on the tough sides of my face ;ft.,-
did not suffer ; but _When he began
to ,rake, and.rip, and tug at my chin
the tears came. I did not mind his,
getting so close down 'to me; I did
not mind his garlic, because all bar
bers eat garlic, I suppose; but there
was an added something ion his foul
breath that made me fear he was de
caying inwardly while still_ alive,
and this gave me much concern. He
now put his finger into my mcuth to
assist in shavine' s the 'corners of my
upper lip, and it was by this bit of
circumstantial evidence that I dis
covered a part of his duties in the
shop was to clean, the kerosenelamps.
I had often wondered in an indolent
way r whether the , barbers did that, or
whether it was the boss. Aboutthls -
time I was a musinemyself trying to
guess where he Would be most likely
to cut ins this time, but he got ahead
of me and sliced; me on the end of
the chin before I had got m'y mind
made up. He immediately sharpen
ed his razor—he might have done it
before, I do not like a clese shave,
and would not let him go over me a
second time. I tried to get him to
put up his razor, dreading that he
would make forthe side of my chin,
my pet tender spot, a place which a
razor cannot touch twice without
makite , trouble. But Ile said he
only w anted to just smooth off one
little roughness, and in that same
moment he slipped his razor along
the forbidden ground, and the dread
ful pimple-signs of a close shave rose
up smarting and answered to the
call. Now he soaked his towel in
bay rum, and slapped, itall over my
face nastily ; slapped it over as if a
human being ever yet washed his
face in that way, Then he dried it
by slapping with the dry part of the
towel, as if a human being ever dried
his him in ,such a fashion ; but a bar
ber seldom rubs like a Christian.
Next he poked bay rum into the cut
place with his towel, then choked the
wound with powdered starch, then
soaked it with bay rum again, and
would have gone on soaking and
powdering It evermore, no doubt, if
