And the vision f a: my pastT;l'e Was an awful thing to face Alone with my eonseienee sitiinrf In that Hi'leiiiiilv Kilem place. And I thought of a far-away warning, Of a sorrow that was to be mine, In a land that then was the future, lint is now toe present iime. And I thought of my former thinking t" the judgment tiav to be, P.ul sitting alone with my conscience Seemed judgment enough for me. And I wondered if there was a future To Ihis land beyond the grave; I5ut no one gave me an answer, And no one came to save. Then I tell, that the t'n.ure was ptesent, And the present would never go by. Fur i: was the thought of my past, life tJiown into eterni ty. Then I woke from my timely dreaming.

And with moistened eyes he told me that he had a child .f his own at home-au only child of very nearly the same age. , I asked it he would tell ma his name. With a smile, be answered, that his name J did not matter-he was not sure he had a name. I then asked him if be knew me. He nodded and saii be thought I might oe Mr. I.tirl ington, of W'albridee. AVben I told him he was correct, lie said that be must hurry home. And with that he turned away. I was too deeply moved to stop him, and when he had disappeared I sailed to rejoin my wife with a dawning impression that the man might be slightly deranged. Hut my darling was safe her broad, lleeey cloak had lloated out and kept her head above water I went on mv way rejoicing, resolve -J that the preserver of my child should not be forgotten. 1 will not tell you of the emotion of my wife when tdie licit! her child once mote in her aims. We reached Shiieton before night, rinding quarters at a comfortable I tavern. ! Oil the follow l ii nr dnv T.nbnn Sarfnrt called upon me and was about to spread his evidence for my inspection, when I in terrupted him. 1 told him I could not ac cept his confidence until I had made np my mind to take his case in hand. Something seemed to whisper that there was danger ahead. I did not feel comfortable in that mail's presence. I felt as though lie was trying lo buy me. The court would sit in four days. 1 told him I would give him a final answer iu two days from that. That evening I made a confident of my wife, aird asked her wli.it I should do. "If I take the case," I said, "I am sure of five thousand dollars." She bade me do what was light. "God has been very kind to us," she fcaid, "let us look to Him for guidance." Af'.er this 1 called on the clergyman of the place, vtho.se son had been my class male in college, and a horn I had once be loie visned. lie itceivtd me hi an il . and by and by 1 asked hiiu about W illiam Acton. The result of all be told me is i summed u, in his closing sentence: "I ; am sure iiliam Acton was I'hilip Acton's son in fact, i know it and I think ihe ! father and mother were maiiied. Betsy .1 - j .-. , .... jineii very soon aner ner ciiini was tiorn, and we know ihat I'hilip always treated j 0 ,y as a legi' im.ue child ; and that he loved ban as such I can confidently afih in." , On .',e following moining, after break fast , as I sat bv t he window in the bar- room, I saw coming fiom the stteet the man who had saved my child. He was walking slowly, like one in trouble. 1 pointed him out to my host and asked who he .vas. "That is William Acton. Teiliaps yon have heaid of the trouble ho is likely to have with Lab.m Sirfurt'.'' I said 1 had heard. "I hoje he may come out all right," the host added ; "but I am fearful. He has cot a hard aud heartless customer to deal With." I shut my mouth and held tr.y peace until Lttbau Sarfnrt called for his final answer. I said to him : '"Ml-. Sai lot t. I have beeii ei .visi.lo-i n rr itli this lime whether I could undertake! your case with a clear conscience whether I should be helping ihe side of justice and riglic in helping you. 1 had concluded that I could not do so before I had seen William Acton to know him byname. I now know him for a man who nobly risked his own life lo sate the life of my child. For that deed I will rew aid him if I can. I have not, as yet, accepted one of your private disclosures ; I have gained from yon nothing which you could wish to keep from the public. I cannot take your case, but I tell you frankly, that if you prosecute I will defend William Acton." I did not mind Sarfurt's wrath, lie raved and swore and stamped, and then he went off aud engaged two lawyers from Heikimer to t.ike the case. I called upon Acton, and told him I would defend him if be would accept my services, as I had ac cepled his. He took my hand thanked me. I have made a great many speeches in my life, but I think I never made a better one than I made to that jury on that oc casion. They wcr not out over live min utes. Dy th?ir verdict William Acton was the lawful possessor of the estate hisfalher had left. From that day I never hesitated to ve- ! fuse a case to which I could not give my j heart.

I t.M liATKII. r- A serious phase of disease is that which attacks a boy on a day when he particularly objects to going Io school. He tells bin mother wiih confiding fianknfss pocttliar to youth, that he does not feel well this morning. lie doesn't know what it is. but lie is lame iu the joints, bis bead aches, and he desirt feel a bit. pood. He moves about slowly, oH-uly leftists fii, looks dejected, negligent, unhappy. Ouit fte fjtiently he can be beard to sigh. Ihit in all his pain he never lot-gets the clock. As lime advances to tbt bom which inaiks school time his symptoms increase. He doesn't say a word about school to bis mother. Ho feels too dreadful, jH il nps, to talk of such things. He is certainly in a bail way. His sighs increase as tho dreaded lime approaches, and the physical symptoms of decay become mote and more manifest. Hut the greatest suffering he endures mentally. Fifteen minutes to nine is the time he should start. It lacks bnt ten minutes of that time, and nothing has been said to him about getting ready. He wants to believe that he is all right, bo- causo mat is the prompting of hope which is strong in the youthful breast ; but yet , he refuses to believe he is, because be fears Hie reaction of disappointment. Every time he hears his mother's voice he is startled, and every lime be detects her looking toward him he feels his heart sink wiUiin him. It is a hard think, indeed, to appear outwardly languid, listless and drooping, when inwardly one is a roaring iiiruace oi agony, lint ne does it, aud ; does it admirably. It now kicks five mm uies of the quarter. Si iii she says nothing. His nei vousness is almost maddening. ' Four minutes, three mimiits, two minutes, one minute. Still she makes no sign, Will his reason forsake him ? It is the quarter. Now he should. start according to custom. One wouid think he had every encoiuagement now, but he knows that even at lite minutes laler he can make school by hurrying. The agony of il.e susH.use becomes exquisite. Ho trembles all over, and be cannot help it. His hair is moist, wi h perspir.it ion? It seems as if he would cj- np everything and s:nk into the piave if he could but know ihe result'. How slowly (he clock i moves. It slates at him with exasperating Sionincss. The Im minutes are ic.iched. He biea. lies easier. "Not a word has been said lo him about school. II is mot her sees that he is loo ill to go, and she symp.i Ihips with him. Heaven bless her. Ibd ever a boy have such a good, noble mother ' as this? Visions of sunny fields and shady woods and running sireams unfold befoie htm, stirring Ihe depi lis of his soul, and filling his eyes with tears of tladnees. j "John." 1 Like a great shock the beautiful pielnres fall away and he is shot from the pinnacle of hope into the. abyss of despair. Theie is no mistaking the voice. "Mercy Rakes ! here y ou are not ready for school. Come st a i t your boot s." "I don't feel well enough to go to school." he whines, hardly realizing the dreadful change that has come upon him with such blighting fmce ai d swiftness. "I guess you ain't dying, quite," is the heartless reply. "And il you ain't at school you will be gail iping over the neigh borhood. Hurry I tell you." lint it is almost nine o'clock, ai:d I'll be late," be protest in desperation. "Late?" she repeats, looking at the clock. "Vou have plenty of time. That clock is tieaily a quaitt i of an bom too fast."- Merciful Heavens! lie goes down be fore the terrific blow ina ll ish. A quar ter of an hour fist ! Bleeding at evety pore of his heart, stunue;l by a shock which was a terrible as unexpected, he crawls inside of his jacket and under his hat, and starts on his w ay iu a da.t d man ner that is pitiful to behold.
