THE VOW.
A TALE OF LIFE IN SWITZERLAND.
I wiw trovellliip; In (ho SwilzorOber
liuid. Tlio sun was Just golii,' down bo
liind tlio towering Alps, sh-ilding ns it
woro an ivvnluncho of vuricgittod colors
over the surrounding landscape; cattlo
lowing In tlio distance, seeking their
lioniei; sheep bleating and wandering
to their folds, bird-i returning to their
nest. No human beingsin view; no homo
where I might rest that night, nnd pre
paro for further explorations of the
wonderful country.
Myhorso began to slacken Ins pace.
At last I saw between tho wldo-spreatl
lug lire what seemed to mo rt chalet.
Smoko issuing from a chimney is suro
indication of human life existing.
rodo on and on. My horse, knowing
perhaps tho locality, certainly better
than I, seemed to hurry Ills pace. A
thatched roof camo In view. After a
while I perceived n gate, and soon tils
mounted, to seek shelter for tho night.
It was a secluded spot, certainly. The
chalet was built with earo, heavy stones
preventing lt.3 roof from being torn up
by a passing hurricane. Tho door was
ajar, faint light glimmering through tho
opening. I dismounted, fastened my
tired horse, approached tlio door, gent
ly tapping, and with a kind of nervous
anxiety waiting for tho ninwer.
Tho door was opened by n sturdy wo
iiian, facing 1110 with tho steady look of
tho real "mountaineer," knowing no
fear, and withal ready to do any scrvico
when needed.
Can I rest hero this night?" I asked
in as good a llerno accent as I could
master.
"Yes, you can," was tlio answer." Wil-
helm, tako tlio gentleman's horse to tlio
stable," and a boy of soino twelve years
obeyed tlio puminoiis, took my hor.o
nil led it to it plaeo of rest, giving it
such carons tlioso who know tho value
of horses learn to bestow.
"Sit down and rest yoursnlf," said tlio
stately matron, showing mo to n largo
arm-chaii', curiously carved, iiud occu
pying one side of the fireplace. "It icd
lo bo my Whilhelni's chair," she con
tinued. "Hut ho U gone. I am it lone
ly widow now, and. keep it for tho
stranger who happens to puss this way.
You nro welcome to it, sir, very wel
come. Rest yourself alter a wiino l
shall have supper leady."
So -iiying sho wont nway,aiiil while I
Indulged lu tlio luxury of u warming
Ore, I seated myself In "Wilhelm's
chair," 1 heard tlio flattering of pans
and dislKS, tokens of tho realization of
thu promUed supper. I was Jut philo
sophizing on tlio blessedness of primi
tive country life, when I heard a groan
from an adjoining apartment:
"Karl, Karl 1 do eomo 1 do come!"
And after a while It was again, "Do
como ! do come!" There was an earnest,
ness in tlio words which I cannot ex.
pre-s, "JConime, oh komme I" was thu
request. Then followed n groan,n pause,
nnd again thopleadlng volcosaid,"A'(o
komme! oh komme I"
Tho mntron entered with n supper,
substantial though simple. Whllo pla
cing the dishes on tho table, tho groan,
and following, "komme, oh kommeV
sounded again. Sim Instantly went
through n sldo door, nnd I heard her
chiding softly, "J.UIhs kind, sel iluch
iieic (Dour tlilld, bo sensible) Karl is
far oil', Karl may como toon, lio kmi
slble, dear child.
Rut the pleading volceu peatetl, "Karl

So long. Soiling I so long! Mother,!

Anil so It went on till at last thu suf
ferer bccmcd to bo exhausted uud In tho
arms of sleep. Tho mother then camo
out and Bald :
"Excuso mo, sir, my daugiitcr Is 111,
very ill, tho doctors hnvo given her up.
Sho cannot llvo. No, sho cannot live."
And then her strong nnturo gavo wny,
nnd sho wept bitterly.
"What la tho matter ?" said I, when
sho recovered from her deep emotion,
"Pining away, sir" sho nnswered,
"pining nwny. Four years ngo her bo
trotlicd, n bravo and handsomo young
man, said to her, 'Trudchen, I nin off
for America. .There I can mnko a for
tune uud como uncle to marry thco.
Hero It Is misery and oiullcss Inbor.'
'Karl,' eald Tiudchen, 'belter poor with
thee, than rich without thoo. Wo havo
cows and goats, nnd can mnko n living.
Why leavo mo nnd risk my life and
thine. For truly, Karl, I lovo thco,
nnd without thee I cannot live.' But
tho young man was stubborn, sir, as
most of our young mountaineers are; ho
laughed nnd said within four years ho
would bo back nnd marry her. For n
month sho has been fading nnd fading
nwny. A slow fever seems to under
mlno her, nnd only tho thought keeps
her nlivo 'Knrl Is coming I Ho said
four years. Knrl Is coming 1' "
"And Is to-day Just four yenrs slnco
ho left?" I nsked, touched by tho
mother's woo,
"Just four yenrs." said she. "Tho first
year wo received letters. Then ho said
ho was going on a great venture, nnd
wo might not hear from him In somo
time. Nor did wo. No tidings from
him slnco our last letter."
And tho poor widow broko out In
tears. Uut n drop groan from tho In
ner chamber roused her at onco j sho
went in nnd I heard tho girl saying :
"Mother, mother! Karl is coming
coming. Er komml I Kr Itommt !"
Whllo tho mother was soothing her
suffering daughter I heard far nwny, ns
It seemed to me, n sound llko tho tink
ling of n cow-bell, Rut it incrensed in
strength, nnd going to tho door I lis
tened nttentively, nnd suro enough It
was n church bell.
Tho mother's familiar car had caught
tho sound, uml rushing to tho door she
listened a while. "No alnrtn?no fire!"
Hnldsho. "What can It bo?" It Is tho
church bell of Wotterhruner."
"How far from hero ?" I asked.
"Two miles," she answered ; "but it
takes long to get tliero through the
windings of tlio mountain passes."
Thu boll still continued ringing ; and
through tho open door tho sound reach
ed tho ear o( tlio sufferer.
"Hear! hear!" sho cried. Tho bell
rings. "iV komml ! jEV kommt !"
Tho mother and inybolf were standing
in tlio door listening to tho sound, and,
as it were, lust in our own thoughts.
What wero her's I do not know. Tears
streamed down her cheeks, and at last
sho said with tho accents of deepest
grief lAcber Cbtt, erbarme dich wiser I"
(O Lord God, havo mercy on us.)
But all tit onco wo heard voices hing
ing, shouting, huzzaing ; then iigain, ns
tho road went behind somo mountain,
tlioso grew faint and, nothing was heard
but tho distant ringing of tho Wetter
bruuer bell.
"Hurrah !" it sounded suddenly,
where tho ro.itl camo direct upon tho
chalet. "Hurrah for Knrl. Long llvo
Knrl ! Long llvo Trudchen I"
I looked at tho mother ; sho stagger
ed. I caught her In my arms, but re
covering immediately, tlio brave wo
man said : "Karl, sirj Karl iscomingl"
Ami sho went to tho bed-chamber. Sho
knelt down before the couch whereupon
lay her daughter, seemingly nslcep, her
eyes closed, her hands clasped over her
breast.
I stood in anxious expectation. Tho
voices became louder and louder, I
could hear tho tramping of horses nnd
footsteps. Soon I saw n mass of men
approaching tho gnto. Stopping, they
gave tt hearty "Hurrah for Karl I Hur-
mil for Trudchen !" lsaw nyoung mnn
slinking hands, with words of thanks
to all, then lifting up llioga(c-latcli,aiid
hastily walking up to tho door.
Ho taw in c, greeted mo politely, went
Into tho houio, and tald, with it volcu
thick with emotion:
"Mother I Mother !"
Tho mother stood in thudeor, put her
linger on Hit lips, opened her aniis.aud
what nu embrace ! What u long, long
embrace ! That bronze face of tho young
Switzer quivered ; tears rolled down;
and tlio mother shall I ever forget that
expression of thankful liopo and grate
ful love!
'Trudehen V" tuld Karl at last.
'All yours, my Karl, my boy I nil
yours, but ill and weak. Look in."
Thus saying, she led him to tho bed
chamber, where Trudchen lay, teem-
Ingly asleep, lvurl trembled all over
with emotion. Ho apurouclied mid
knelt down, took ono of tho clasped
hands, kied It, then rose slowly nml
left the room.
Though not u physician I know enough
to too that tlieru was n easo which, un-lo.-s
handled with care, might turn In
to death, or worso oven lunacy,
"Bu careful," said I. "Do not try to
awaken your daughter. Watch her ,
sho may sleep on tlio wholo night. Stay
with her. When sho wakes to con
scioti snes.Sjbo guarded. Violent emotion
might kill her."
Tho mother thanked me. I went out
to thu gate and told tho assembled
friends tlio stale of affairs. I begged
them to leavo quietly, and to send up
tho physician from Wotterhruner,
III tho meantime Karl told IiU story.
It was that of ninny others. After a
year of toll In tho new world, ho heard
of tho California gold mines, miulo up
his iiitiul, went lo work bravely, kept
sober and steady, nuulo what In Berno
Oberltuul might bu called a "good pile."
And then ho hastened to return so us to
keep his word with his betrothed. On
hi. arrival at Wetterbruucr ho geno
rously treated his liuuieioiisfilendsiin.l

it was deep lu tho night when tho
physician camo an elderly man, not
only thu physician of tho villagers, but
lilt Ir friend and real benefactor. Ho
knew of Trudchcn's faithful lovo and
enduring expectation, During tlio third
year of Karl's iibsenco sho began to bo

quiet nnd thoughtful j then lnnguld nnd
listless! then thcro would bo now nnd
then a rosy tint on her checks onco so
full, but now wnnj then, when sho gavo
tho doctor hor llttlo hand, ho folt It fe
verish and looked thoughtful.
"Mother," said ho to old Mngdnleu,
"mother, bo very carorul. No night nlr,
no dreaming to tho stars, no llstonlng
to tho faroff breezo whon It rushos to
the big plno forost.Tako hcrout mothor;
visit neighbor Worthlcm, your kins
man j go anywhere, mother, and give
hor change. Perhaps sho may fall In
with somo of our sturdy mountaineers',
Who may replace what seems to bo
lost."
Tlio mother did ns sho was bid, but
Trudchen remained thoughtful und list-
lets, nnd ut last seemed unublo to holp
her dear old mother In her housohold
duties.
Thus tho old doctor know his patient.
Ho approached the couch ciirofully,Iook
cd awhile on tho beautiful sleeper, took
tenderly her hand nnd felt tho pulse.
"No pulso," said ho, after u long nauso
"What is this? ltsccma I hoar her
breathing," said he, leaning over her.
"Yes, I hear it distinctly, but slow, very
slow . What is this ? nnd no pulse."
"Karl," ho said to tlio anxious lover,
"bo careful not to bo near her when sho
nwakes. Very weak, very weak. I
should say on tho very brink ol eternal
sleep. If sho awakes from tills, bo not
there. Break it softly to her. Her lifo
hangs on as fino a thread as a spider ev
er wove. Good mother of God, bo mer

Tho good old doctor was a pious Cutho.
lie, and kept up with mass and confos
slou at least as well a with tho current
literature of tlio healing art.
"Thu mother of God,"baid Karl.wltlt
a deep emphasis which struck mo, lis.
toning with anxious sympathy. "Tho
mother of God, Ilerr Doctor, can avail
us nothing. Sho Is, or was a creature
llko you and Ij but her Eternal Son
yes, Ho can heal now as when on earth.
May Ho havo mery."
Tho doctor looked puzzled , feelln
onco more thu pulso ho said after
while :
"No pulse, no pulse. Karl mako a
vow, mako u vow. Perhaps tlieio will
bo mercy from thu Mother or elsu from
from tho Son 1"
And tho pious, good old doctor cross
ed himself whllo saying this.
"My vow Is made long since," said
Karl, with tho same emphatic tone,
"Long before I came. I 6hall add noth
lug to it; but keep it I shall," added ho,
tho tears breaking forth, "yea, I shall
keep it, whatever may happen."
And then there was long pause. At
length said Karl :
"Ilo knows best."
I am suro the doctor felt curious about
his vow. So did I. But wo both kept
sllencoand watched the long night with
Intenso anxiety. At lengtli tho morn
Ing came, Tho breathing had become
slower and slower. Tho hands were
clammy cold, tho feet wero cold, and
toward noon tho doctor said :
"God's will bo done. Trudchen is in
Paradise. For surely such as sho do
servo no other place."
It camu not unexpectedly. It was
foreseen. Tho mother's eye had watch
ed so long that sho waspieparcd for tho
bitter loss. Yet bitter, very bitter, was
tlio cup to drink for a mother's lovo.
Very bitter for him whoso soul sccmod
absorbed in tlio contemplation of what
remained of her whom ho loved to long,
so well; for whom ho had toiled and
struggled, nnd whom to mako happy
was the lifo of his soul.
Long they gazed upon tho lovely be
ing, lovely In her sleep, n sweet smile
resting on her still rosy lips an imago
of calm repose, of blissful expectation.
At length tho matron was tlio first to
rally from thestupor wherein they both
seemed lo havo fallen.
"Karl," said she, "thou earnest In
time. Sho went loving thee. Sho Is
happy, Karl," bhotaid, putting herarm
with motherly tenderness around his
neck; "Ihou couldst not havo made her
happier. Let us ask God to give us
strength to bear this stroke," and then
bursting out In tinrs tho knolt besldo
tho couch. Tho young mau knelt, tho
doctor knelt, und I myself knelt down.
Soft and steady roso tho voico of tho
matron. What simplicity of language!
What real coming to God ! What sub
dued prayer for strength 1 What ten
der roiuembraneo of Trudchen lovo
and dutiful piety.
And when sho ceased, tho young man
In deep guttural tones said. "Thou
knowest, Lord, what I vowed. Happy
sho Is, for with Theo bho Is; I thank
Thco ; oven so, fur It was Thy will. I
shall du it Lord, I shall do It."
After a whllo the neighbors camo ad
ding their mite of consolation; and then
they busied themsUvcs with tho last
airectlonalo earo to bo bestowed upon
tho remains of one whom nil bccmcd to
love. 1 remained yet it few hours, and
in thu afternoon took my leavo from
the mourning mother nnd tuo sorrow
ing betrothed, I cast ono moro glanco
upon tho beautiful form which had con
tained tho spirit of Trudchen, und
mounting my horse.waved n last adieu
to my newly mado friends.

and then ho carefully makes a black
mark down on ono sldo of his noso. It
is Impossible to mako nny headway. In
doing tills work.untilthls mark Is mado
down tho sldo of tho noso. Having got
his faco properly marked, tho victim is
ready lo begin tlio ceremony. Tho head
of tho family who is tho big gooso of
tno sacriilco grasps ono sldo of tho bot
tom of tho Btove, and his wlfo nnd tho
ilred girl take hold of tho othor sldo.
n this way tho burdensome load is
started from tho woodshed towards thu
mrlor. Going through tho door tho
head of tho family will carefully awing
hlsBidoof tho stovo around and Jam
his thumb null against tho door. This
pnrt of tho ceremony is never omitted.
Having got tho stovo comfortably In
ilaco, tho next thine Is to find tho loirs.
Two of thcbo nro loft Insldo tho stovo
slnco tho sprlug boforo. Tho other two
must bo hunted after for twenty-flvo
minutes. Thoy uro usually found un

ily holds up ono sldo of tho stovo whllo
his wlfo puts two of tho legs In nlace.
nnd next ho holds up tho other sldo
wnilo tho other two nro fixed, nnd ono
of tho first two falls out. By tho timo
tho stovo Is on Its legs ho gets reckless
nnd takes oft'hls old coat regardless of

head of tho family Jams his hat over his

goes to tlio tin shop to havo It fixed.
hen liu gets back ho steps upon ono

pipo fits, anil his wlfo makes him got
down for fear ho will scratch tho var
nish off from tho chairs with tho nails
in his boot heel. In getting down ho
will surely steji on tho cat, and may
thank his stars if It is not tho babvl
Then ho gels nn old chair and climbs
up to tlio chimney again to find that lu
cutting the pipo off tho end has been
left too big for tholiolo In the chimnev.
So ho goes to tho wood shed und splits
one siuc or tlio end oftho pipo witli an
old axo, and squeezes it in his hands to
mako It smaller. Finally ho gets tho
pipo In shape nnd finds that tho stovo
does not stnnd true. Then himself and
wlfo and tlio hired girl move tho stove
to tho left und tho legs fall out again.
Next Is to movo to tho right. Mora
difilculty with tlio legs. Moved to tlio
front a little. Elbow not even with tho
Iiolo in tho chimney, and ho goes to tlio
wood shed nfter somo llttlo blocks.
While putting tlio blocks under the

Head of tho family gets tho dinner ta

himself on it to drive somo nails into

driven, makes n wiro swing to hold tlio

long breath, and announces the cere

reputation if ho had.
Tho Only Female Mason.
Tho Hon. Elizabeth St. Leger was
tho only femalo who was over Initiated
into tlio mystery of Freemasonry. Sho
has had two degrees the first and sec
ondconferred on her. As it may bo
interesting to tlio general reader, wo
glvo the story as to how Miss St. Leger
obtained this honor, premising that tho
Information comes from tho best of
sources. Lord Doncralle, Miss St. Le
ger's father, a very zealous Mason, held
a warrant and occasionally opened lodge
at Donernllo House, his sons and somo
Intimate friends nss-lsting: nnd It is
tald that never were Masonic dudes
more rigorously performed than by tho
brethren of No. 150, thonumber of their
warrant.
It appear-- that previous lo tho initia
tion of a gentleman to tho first degreo
of Masonry, Miss St. Legcr, who was a
young girl, happened to bo in nn a
ppartment adjoining tho room generally
used as n Lodgo room, but whether tlio
young lady was thero by design or
merely accident, wo cannot confidently
state. Tho room nt tho time was under
going somo alteration; among other
tilings, tho wall was considerably re
ducetl In ono part, fur tho purpose of
making ,t saloon. Tlio young lady hav
ing hearil tho voices of ! .ceina.oiis, and

to all to seo this mystery. so long and so
secretly locked up fromHio public view,

tho wall with her scissors, nnd tlius

mony. Curiosity gratified, fear at onco took
possession of hor initid, and tlioso who
understand this passage well know what
tho feeling of any person must bo who
Lcould unlawfully behold tho ceremony;
let them Judgo what wero tho feelings
of it young girl under such extraordi
nary circumstances. Thcro was no
mode of cscapo, except through tho
very room wliero tho concluding part of
tuo .econustcp was still being solemn
ized nt tho far end, aud tho room a very
largo one. MltsSt, Leger had resolu

way, and with light but trembling steps

on the hamllo of tho door and opened
It, but boforo her stood, to her dismay,
n grim fyler with his long sword un
sheathed. A blirlek that passed through tho
npartmcnts alarmed tho members of tho
