All day the reapers on the hill
Have plied their task with sturdy will,
But now the field is void and still;
And, wandering thither, I have found
Tue bearded spears in sheaves well bound,
And stacked in many a golden mound,
And while cool evening suavely grows,
Aud o'er the sunset’s dying rose
The first white star throbs snd glows,
And from the clear east red of glare,
The ascendant harvest moon floats fair
Through dreamy deeps of purple air,
And in among the slanted sheaves
A tender light its glamour weaves,
A lovely light that lures, deceives—
hen swayed by Fancy's dear command,
Amid the past I seem to stand, :
In hallowed Bethlehem’s harvest land
And through the dim field, vague decried,
A homeward host of shadows glide,
And siekles gleam on every side.
Bhalows of man and maid I trace,
With shapes of strength and shapes of grace
Yet gaze but on o single face
A candid brow, still smooth with youth;
A srangquil smile; a mien of truth—
The patient, stap-oyed gleamer, Ruth }

May man fleetly up the old staircase
to her mother’s room, and Oswald went
back to his labor,
He walked and worked with a mus-
ing eye, It had cost him something,
stirred him painfully, to refer to his
experiences, He was not in the habit
of speaking of his misfortune,
His unjust disinheritance was a sore
gpot, which he was fond of probing.
Aad 2 new thought haunted him now,
which he tried to put aside; and, leay-
ing his monotonous task, began to talk
with the men about a proposed blast-
ing of rocks, for which a heavy train
would soon have to be laid, i
“You'll be careful, boy--eh? Blast
ing is dangerous work,” said a bent,
little man, mn a low tone, at his el-

“I'll be careful, father,” with a rare

But when work hours were passed,
the haunting thought again took pos.

whom he had known but a brief month

After he had parted from her the
truth broke upon him. How fair ana

delicate flower, though May Probsn
was far from believing herself not
strong, and, indeed, had a peculiar
elasticity of constitution. It was rather
a tenderness and sensibility of nature,
which seemed to need protection, and
the fostering care of love.

blue? Had he found favor in the'r

The thought wade his countenance
luminous for a moment; then it grew
downcast,
He was a poor and homeless man,
He had no wish to wed one he loved to
such misfortune. What would any
woman gain by giving up her freedom
and independence to marry him? He
could not support a wife in comfort.
He would never ask this girl to live on
the wages of a mining overseer,
How lovely she was in the Sunday

“But didn’t you see him blush?”
“Well, what of that?"
“Don’t you think he was lying?”
“No, I don’t. I know he was telling
me square truth *’
“Do you know the circumstances?”
“Yes, and I know he told them just
ad they were,’
“If sounded like a lie anyway. ’’
“That is why he blushed,” said Mr,
Denison, for this talk was taking place
in his law office just after the departure
of a young man who had been sued and
was seeking advice from his attorney.
“I venture to say no man has had
more trouble than I with blushes, and
1 think I know some of the causes be-
hind them. You may have noticed
that I blush on every conceivable occa-
sion, If a question is put to me quick~
ly, I blush, If I meet a friend slap on
the street—unless I see him some time
before I reach him—I blush, If any-
body speaks my name from behind or
frown some unexpected quarter, I blush,
As much as I have been before juries,
cate refers to me as ‘the “irned coun.
sel for the defense. Hang it! I blush
on all sorts of occasions, and yet I don’t
believe anybody would say 1 am an es
pecially modest or bashful man.
“No, sir.” continued the old attorney,
“J have blushed and blushed all my
life, and the more I blush the more [
try not to to, and the more I try not to
the more I blush, Above all, the mean.
&8t blush is just such n one as you saw
on that young man’s face just now. I
know just how he felt. He knew he
was telling a pretty hard story, and he
could see in your face that you didn’
believe him, That's why Be blushed.
If he had been talking to me alone he
would not have blushed, because he
knows I am familiar with the circum-
stances he related; but you looked
doubtingly at him, and he feit your
mistrust so keenly that it brought the
blood to his face.’
After a little pause Mr, Dendson cop-
tinued: *I never pay the least attention
to blushes when examining a witness,
The blush is not, as is too often bellev-
ed, the evidence of a lie. Nor is it a
true signal of embarrassment, I know
that, for I have been told that I was
blushing purple when I was as cilm
and unembarrassed as I aw at this mo-
ment. There are many causes for my
blushes; some of them purely physical,
I think; but often when I am telling
something—soma little personal recol-
lection, perhaps, that amounts to npoth-
ing--I get it in my head that somebody
doubts some part of it. Then 1 blush.
Then 1 feel that 1 am blushing, and 1
say to myself: Now he will see me blush
and will be sure to think I am lying,’
and that makes me blush all the mue,
until finally I can feel my face bum
and glow like a coal, and I say to my-
self: “Now he issare ] am lying, and
he thinks I know be issure of it,’ and
s0 I. stand and blush because I think
he doubts me until, perhaps, I really
make him doubt we bécanse of my
blushes. **

opportunity he had heard of from the

these medicines failed, it was thought
time for the patients to call on a higher

other hemisphere. The lancet was a
great factor. If aman was shghtly ill,

awhile. Bleeding was a mania among
the doctors. It taged like an. epidemic,
If a man had his left arm torn off, the
next thing was “‘souce’” a knife in has

but blood was excluded,

sertion, sic?"
“1 base it upon comtoon sense. The
patient was suffering in the first
from loss of biood, thén we bled him,
and now, I say, that it- would be betler
