Tho shades of evening had fallen, and

Upon tho earth. Tito shadows of tho moun

purplo in tlio twilight. New and wonderous
charms wero nwakeriing benoith tlio balmy
caresses of the night breeso, wltilo n suhtlo
pcrfumo floated in tho luscious air. Lights
twinkled on tho shoro, in casements up
high on tlio blulTs, on river-craft, and in
bcaeons,sending longstreahs of illumination
across the glassy water. The river was slcel
gray, and tho Shadows of tho banks sank
down in ghostly and fathomless darkness.
Stars pamo out in tho dark-blue sky, shim
menng llko rose-diamonds. Dogs bayed.
Oh, it was the hour of lteart-case,wlicn that
throb of pain called "life" was castasido and
forgollen I
In Iho. bed chamber of a neatly white
washed cottage, that stood on tho outtkirls
of tho village ofllomedale, sat a man be
sido a bed, his rough, coarse, brown hands
clasping tho thin, wliilo, waxen fingers of a
woman, who, gasping for breath, lay upon
her back, her eyes closed, while her lips, no
she caught nt her breath, seemed lo Imtrmur
a name. . .
Tho man was not aged, ho might havo
been hut fitly, but grief had cast its terrible
shadow upon him, and Ins forohcad Was
Lwrinkled, his eyes sunken and his form
bent.
Ho said no word, ho modq no sign, but,
with his hollow eyes bent upon tlio floor.lio
clasped tho worn hand, amid n silenco only
broken by tho tickiug ot a noisy clock and
tho gnspings of tho womnn.
Sho was young, ay, and beautiful Her
hair, dark as tho blackbird's wing, lay a
cross thosnowy pillow in vast silken meshes.
Her face, despite its emaciation, was a deli
cate ovaldier brows wero exquisitely pencil
ed, tier nose and mouth wcro 'absolutely
faultless. i
She did not open her eyes, but kept them
closed,
"Wator I" sho gasped, at length.
Then Iho man, gently putting aside tho
waxen hand, stepped over to a bureau, and
pouring out some waier from a brown
earliienware-piteher into a tumbler, ofTerod
it to tlio girl. She opened her eyes. They
wcro large, lustrous, heavy-lidded, and of
that bluo which in some lights assumes tho
color of tlio violet.
"low soon nm I to dial" sho asked, after
sho hatl,by a painful effort, swallowed a few
drops of tho cooling beverago which her
father had prepared for her,
"Hush, Nellie i don't talk' that way."
''Father, I can talk no other way. Am I
to dia trtnltrhtl"
"Doctor Ulyther gives hopes,"
The girl impatiently turned her head
from eido to side on tlio pillow.
Doctor Ulyther rfare not trifle with mo!"
she said.
At tliis moment the doctorcntcrcd.
Tho girl turned her lustrous eyes full up
on him. Her words now came slowly but
each word (old.
"Doctor Iilyther, father tells ine that you
glvo hjm hopes of mo j If you do you lie I"
"Jfy dear "began tlio physician a fat,
fussy littio man. '
"You lie 1" sho repeated, witli horrible
emphasis,
"Let mo feel your pulse, Misa Xellle."
"If it's for tho pitrposo of telling mo how
soon I am to die.horo ;" and,wltb a strength
of which he did not deem her capable, sho
stretched forth her arm.
Tlio doctor took tho wrist, 'and held his
fingers on tho pulse for some titno.
"There's no death in that pulso," lie said
addressing tho old man, who murmured,
".Thanks bo to God i" .
"Not a bit of it," continued tho physician;
"and, what's more, if your daughter will bo
guided by me, I'll engage to pnll her
through."
"I rcfuso to recover God I" sho added,
almost iu a shriek, "what would I recover
for."
"ISevengol" half-whispered lle old man,
and his eyes flashed, his nostrils quivered,
his veins stood out liko cords upon his fore
head, and his chest heaved as lie spoke.
" 'Kevengo is mine, saith tho Lord,' " said
the doctor, solemnly.
Tho old man turned, on him,
"If tho flames of hell wcro ieaping up to

For Ilia moment, tho physicmn pressed
his lips and drew himself up, bntremcmber

resumed:
"Tom Diiflerin didn't see Al Howard"
the girl winced at the mention of tho name
as if she had been struck'by n whip "but

V SI SHOO
Two Summers beforo tho opening of this
story, thero lived in Homeiinloatrill swarthy
handsome young fellow of the name of Al
fred Howard. He was Iho son ol Jabez
Howard, a sturdy fisherman, who gained a
substantial and honorable livlihood by net
ting Sturgeon and shud.and whosachuroetor
for probity was second only tothatofGeorgo
Washington's.
Alfred, Ins only child, was a lislterboy at
six; at eight ho could cast a net as well as
ma Liuitrr, mm lit ten nun cuuigu ui u aiimii

aud for running under full canvass when
every other vessel on tho river was close
reeled, was celebrated in story irom rougn

The lad mado a couplo of voj'agcs round
tho world iu a sailing ship, nnd when ho
returned to Homedale after his last trip lie
was as line a young leliow oi two ana twen
tv as ever tho sun shouo down upon.
Iu Iho villago there also dwelt William
Allen and his daughter Nellio. Allen had
n small farm which ho tilled himself, aud
rumor accredited him with being the pos
sessor of money -not much, to bo sure; but
ono thousand dollars in Ilomedalo was
equivalent to ten thousand dollars in New
York.
Ho was a reserved and tacliturn man, who
seldom mixed with his fellows, never spent
more than five mlnutoj at Joo Littsom's sa
loon where nil tho villaro cossips most did
congregate, and, as hu read a great deal, ho
was put down for a decayed member of the
richer claw, who had como to grief and to
Honiedale.
Nellio Allen was disliked by tha many,
lovod by tha very fow; sho was a moody,
wayward, loving girl, stroug in her likings,
strong in her dislikings.
Iter's was a very Hisitivo nature, and a
slight would cuuse'hcr young blood to leap
Into name.
She and Alfred met in tlio usual way by
chance and iu their lirstlntcrviewhcr very
heart went out to him.
Alfruil. on bis aide, fell deenlv in lovo
with tho beautiful young gill, aud the old,
old story soon buret into blossom. Tbey
wcro plighted in secret, as botli feared as yet
to null vi llliam Allen n consent.
Three months spoil by, and the lovers
were all tho world to one another. Howard
would go fishing in his smack, and, haying
established a endo of signals, would corros
iond witli Nellio by means ol flags. Tho
calm day, when there was no wind to movo
their ensigns, was always ono of gloom to
tlio enthusiastic lovers. At length Alfred,
taking heart of grace, demanded Ncllio of
her father, and, uftcr aotno growling on tlio
old man's part, the consent was reluctantly
given.
"You may court my child for six months
longer, I have known lass and lad change
their minds in half that lime, and you aro
now on probation." Said William Allen.
"If cither of you feel a cooling oil' of this
fever, bo courageous encugh to speak out,
for it is but a fever, after all."

had been wooed nnd won by a cadet from
West I'oinl, nnd, having accompanied her
husband to Manitoba, where hedlod shortly
after marriage, had now returned to tier old
home.
Mrs. Irwin had seen what is termed So
ciety life, and had profited by it, if profit it
may be called that is, sho aoquiied the
manners and ways of Society jteople, and
now she burst upon the rattles at Homedale
like some bright mieiilar star shot out of
the firmament of the Upper Tun.
Alfred Howard she at onoe marked down
as her lawful prey, and the fact of his being
engaged to another, and that other the most

had no wonl for mortal man or wonldii. Ho

Doctor Blyther, hopinir ncainst hope, Btood
manfully by his patient, nud learning that
tho "Nancy Leo" had arrived at Bedford,
sent a dispatch to Alfred Howard, if ho was
still amongst tho crew, lo hurry to Homo
dalo"for life and death."
"You are just in time," panted tho doctor,
ns he grnscd tho young sailor's hard hand.
"Nellio Allen is dying for lovo of you. A
few hours more and her heart was broken,
whether you lovo her or not, you must come
and see her."
"Good God ! but f no lovo her; I always
loved her; I lovo her now ten thousand
limes more than ever I did."
"Como along, then, Al; I always said you
woic an honest chap, and Al tho widow,
Mrs. Irwin "
"Don't speak of her," said Howard stern-
As the physician opened the door, Allen
was seated by tho bedside of hlschlld, hold
ing tho white, waxen fingers in his.
"You aro not wuhled," ho said, without
turning his head; ".he's gono."
Tho doctor sprang to tho bedside, eagerly
caught her wrists eagerly placed his lian'il
over her heart.
"Not yet," ho whispered: "and I havo an
elixir with mo that will bring her to life."
Allen wearily shook his bead.
Doctor Ulyther administered a few drops
of brandy to tho girl, and then exclaimed :
" Nellie, I have good nows for you."
The girl raised her heavy lids and gazed
at him,
"Very good news, capital news, tho best of
news.
The girl cliiChcd his linntl.
"What is it?" she murmured.
"It's about Al Howard."
"I know. Speak 1"

"In Ilomedalo?"
"Yet; but bo calm, my child, bo calm."
"I am caluii"
"He's true to yod always was true."
The girl closed her eyes, pressed her
hands to her forehead and murmured:
"Can this bo trno?"
Allen said never a word, but watched the
doctor's lips as if to traco thfi words coming
from them.
"It is true. He's coming soon to sco

"Oh, now, now I" exclaimed Nellie, a sreat

was bul ono voico in reply. The pastor was
useful nnd beloved i but the flock was so
poor! "Well," replied tho miller, "I hnvo a
plan by which I can raise his salary with
out asking one of you for ono dollar, it you
allow me to lake mv own way lo do it. I
will assume tho responsibility for one yearr
Havo I your consent?"
Of course they could not icfuto this al
though they expressed surprisc,knowing the
miller to bo a poor man.
Tho year drew to a close. The minister
had been blessed in his labors, and no ono
had bca called on for money. When thev
came together tlio miller asked the pastor if
his wants has been supplied and his salary

was all present, and that nn'guilly mans
had escaped, and read the hymn. The choir
rose with a sound of revelry, and eftertbei

had coughed upo piecoof frog and the alto
had hemmed and the soprano had shook out
her polonaiso to sco if tha varnish showed
