" And Mils h your final decision,
Miss Clay?"
Sho was a beauty born, Uiat rose
mouthed llttlo Racliel Cary, with icr
larfee, whtful eyes trembling with blue
radiant light, like veiled sapphires, and
nor velvet ciicok sataineu wlln pome'
granite crimson an empress of lieatts
from her cradle up I And sitting in
the framework of roses that trailed
athwart the casement, with white rib
bons fluttering from her satin-brown
curls, and onored jewel flashing among
tne toios or ner muslin dress, you
vould almost have fancied her somo
fair pictured saint I
Harry Cleveland was leaning agatnt
the window, n tall, handsome young
fellow, with (lark eyps and hair, and
n, brown cheek, flushed deeply with sup
pressed anger and mortification.
" Yes, Mr. Cleveland, It Is," said
Rachel, calmly lifting her clcr oyes to
his face. " You have asked my reas
ons n,nd, although I question your
riftht to make such a demand, still I
have no objefijlons to render them."
" Speak on," said Harry, biting his
If pa furiously j " let mo know why I
am coiidemn'ed I"
" They nro soon spoken," said Rach
el, quietly. "I have likpd you very
mppi, Mr. Cleveland I still like you
but (p the man whom 1 marry I look
for trpater fit mness and 'decision of
purpose than you have ever displayed.
Earnpstness resolve these nro the
oiy qualities that J can respect. Do
not misunderstand me-do not suppose
that 1 blame you for the lack of quali
fications which which"
Rachel paused Instinctively, while
the pomegranate tinge on her cheok
blazed into vivid scarlet in sympathy
with tho deep flush that dyed tho lov-
cr's whole face. IJo bowed simply,
and walked out of tho room with a firm,
haughty; step.
Latd that evening he sat at his win
dow with clenched teeth and loweriug
brow, watching the 'fiery embers of sun
set fade into purple gloom and noting
the silver feet of innumerable canstcl
latlotu as they followed' ono another
over the blue conoavo of heaven. But
the glow bf the sun and the stars mluht
have been Egyptian daikness for nil
mat he knew or cared auout their gen?
tie Influences.
" Life I" ho murmured darklv to
himself, "what Is it worth to me now ?
What care l who wins the clitter ne

quickly as sho will forget me I the lick
le, beautiful enchantress I"
"Hallo, Cleveland I I'm koIdr unto
can on pretty itaoliel.Ulav 1 Will you
come along, too?"
Captain Morell had paused under the
window, with Ills brown, merry laco
turned upwaid, and tho dim gas-lamp
flickering over his gold shoulder-straps.
uieveiana shook ins neaa.
"Not tonight I"
And Morell went on his wav. the
fiery eye of his clear cleamlncr fitfullv
through the darkness.
" lliera ho goes 1" muttered the so I-
ary misauthrope, " with his military
airs aw graces and it is for such as
he that Rachol throws away my love I"
"So you've enlisted, Harry!" said
old Squire Chiy, deliberately polishing
the glasses of hls spectacles. "Well,
It's what I'd do myself, If I was forty
years younger.- Alut you comin' in to
toll our Rachel good-bye? Haven't
tluie? Well, I do declare I"
The squire gazed iu astonishment
after the vanishing figure of Harry
Cleveland on horse-buck us It disappear
ed among the trees.
" I vionder wbaj Rachel will say,"
was his unspoken comment.
But Rachel 6aid nothing.
Willie, day by day, the old wound
rankled and grewaorcriu Harry Cleve
land's heart.
"Will ho live, doctor?
Every pulse In Rachel Clay's belflg
seemed to stand still, as lied blue, die
ted eyes searched the doctor's klnjd,
sun-embrowned face. '
"Live?. Why shouldn't he? .All
he needs Is a little care, aud I see he's
likely to get that). Now don't blush,
up, my dear he's, not tdie first wound
ed soldier in my W,aid Uiat has had ry
pretty girl come to nurse him and
like Viii all the better for, it t. GIvq,
him tho draught when ho wakes a,uil
keep the bandages, on bis forehead.
He'll probably carry an ugly scar to
his grave. but that will be tie worst
of It. I"
The gopd old man, trotted brlikly
away to t!Q next " cajse," while Rach
el, kneeling down beside the lpw Iron
uedstead, cried tears of Intense thank
fulness tJiat IJarry Cleveland would
not dlq.
" Rachel I, I am t)pt dreaming,
surely yut.lt was but q.rnpmont ago
we made that 'cavalry charge ou on
fixed bayonets I"
Ills large, unnaturally brilliant eyes
wandered vaguely round tho room
then returned to the tender face bend
ing over him.
" It was threo days since, dearest ;
you are lying In the barracks now,
wounded, and I have come from Gleu
vllle to nurse you."
"You, Rachel?"
" Yes, Harry, I"
" Why did you come 1" he asked,
gloouill).
''Hecause I loved you, narry," she
said, tho bright crimson suffusing her
whole face.
A strange light of rapturo flashed In
to Harry's eyes his pulses leaped with
In the fevered veins.
" Loved me, Racliel vet It is not a
month since you refused met"
"Dearest, because l fancied you
weak and vacillating. In tho fiery
smoko or tne uattip-iiokl vou have nrov
cd yourself worthy of the tenderost
love you nave written your name hero
on tho rolls of your country, narrv.
because I refused you onoo you will not
reject me now i"
" Reject you, my heart's quean I Oh.
Rachel, how can I be sure that this is
not a bright, treacherous delirium ?"
She bent liar sott cheek on his and
then he Ttnew that it was no baseless
vision but a sweet reality 1
"Then you did not care for Captain
Morell after all I"
" I never cared for any one but'you,
Hany I"
And when September hung her crown
pf purple mist over tho hills, Harry
Cleveland camo homo to be married,
still handsome, although his forehead
bore a scar across Its broad expanse.
When tho villagers asked curiously If it
was a life-long mark, narry answered
gaily :
" I would not lose it for a fortune
that scar won me my wife."

Talk about that great apostolic cloak
which was on exhibition In 1'ottsvllle
soma time ago, and wh.loll Is now be
fore tho public at some other place. It
cannot comparo with tho wonderful
piece of mechanism which has been
made by a man of our place. This Is
also in tho shtipo of a clock. It is a
tank lo reptesont the sea, and in It Is a
largo whalo as natural as life. A shin
in distress appears on the sea, and the
crew are In tho not of throwing a man
ovcaboard. Tho whalo comes up oi
of the water, nnd as Its head appears
It b mouth gradually opens Until It
reaches tho nia.q thrown out of the ship,
when it suddenly swallows him tip.
No deception U practised. The man
passes dawn the ' whale's thoat, nnd
the whale Sinks into tho tank. Simul
taneously a figure representing- an an
gel appears in a cloud and hovers
around the placo where the whale ap
peared. After the lapse of three quar
ters of a mlnuto tho whalo reappears,
and gradually opening his mouth casts
tho man ott upon the sliore. At this
the ange( and cloud disappear, and n
figure representing God appears near
tba man. The scene of courso repre
sents the Bible story of Jonah nnd the
whale.
In the same case Is a figure represnn
ting Captain Jack, of tho-Modoc In
dians, who was hung by tho novern
men t, striking on a boll the seconds ho
had to live before execution. Sudden?
ly a door opens and a group of Indians
march around him. Thoy then pass
out through another door, widen opens
for their exit.
A Word About Autumn. A writer
happily hit off this particular season of
tho year: All the day nnd nil the night
is full of peace, Tho fever of the earth
Is gone, and we are no louger driven to
dreamy Indolence aa the only resource
from combustion or liquefaction. We
may shut the windows now, with no
hum of tho Industry ouUjdo to Irritate
or distract us. The evening of comfor
table study has come back, with no
self immolated moths to teaze us, or to
fry themselves In tho lamp or to be
pressed out of all shape or ccmellnes lu
tho shut folio, the fair pages, of which
they disfigure. Only a llttlo. white ago
wo had no evenings now there are
threo or four hours for the books and
the stars beforo bod-tune. There are
even now signs of a general liout-lDg; tho
wasp crawls feebly up nnd ddwn the
pane, with all his fiery pluck gouo out
of him ; the-cricket sings In the new
quarters which ho has found somewhere
Iu the room j the great ugly inorlbdnd
Insects cllni'. to the wall, and tho beetles
aud tho butterflies havo passed into
tho seasonable staee of their metemnsv-
gliosis.
