SOMEBODY'S MOTHER.
The woman Was old, and ragged, and'grayi
And bent with the chill of the .winter's dayj
The street was wet with the'reeent snow,
And the woman' feet were aittd and stow.
She stood at the crossing and waited long
Alone, uncared for amid (be throng,
Of human being who passed her
None heeded the Rlance of her anxious eye.
Down thetnroen with laughter and shout,
O lad In the freedom of-sehool let out."
Came the boys, like a flack ot sheep,
Hailing the snow piled white and deep.
Past the woman so old and irray.
Hastened the ohifdrrn 60 thslr way,
Nor offt red a helping hiind 'io'tiit, '
So meek, so timid, afraid to sUr
Lest Iho carriage wheels, or the horse's feet,
Should crowd her down In the slippery street.
At last came one ormo merry troop,
The gayest laddie of all the group '
Ue paused beside her and whispered low,
"I'lr help you across If you wish to Ito."
Iter.aged hand on his strong yormir arm
Bhe placed, and o wlttraut hdrt or harm
He guided .the trembling feet along, , 1
Proud that his own were firm and strong.
Then back ag-aln to his friends he went,
His young heart happy, and well content.
" She's somebody's mother, boys, yeu know',
For all she.' aged, andpobr, and slow,-'
Ar.d Hope some fellow will lemta band
To help my mother you understand. 1
If ever she' old, andpoof, and gray..
Whe.n her own dear boy is far away."
And ",sombody's mother.''" bowed low her
head "
In her home that sight, and the prayers Ih
.Was, "UoJ be klaJ to that nolle boy -Who
li somebody's son, and pride anif joy."

THEBESTREVENGE
Wo were all bo tappyand cheerful In
our little seaside cottage when Aunt Bat
chin's letter came and told us that Fred
Brastome bad "jilted " my sinter Agnes.
Ve, tvoro thunders truok I Agnes herself
refused to credit the report. They had
only been engaged a fow months, and the
arrangement was a secret. My ouiit was
ignorant of the actual engagement, bat
when she wrote, and told as that Brast-
omo was engaged to Sir Somebody Some
thing's daughter, and bad jnst inherited
his nncle's property quite unexpectedly,
it wns a terrible blow to as all at homo.
Yet there were hisktters fall of affection.
Acnes bore np wonderfully, hat at
length even she succumbed. Wo had
heard nothing from Fred very lately Jind
my inquiries onlyelicited. lhe statement
that ho bad gonealroad'snddenly. Even
our neighbors the-Fendreiritts, nt whose
house Aeuos had first met him. werri
away 'yachting, and! we, 'could. !)iot jget at
the truth. I' wrote to hfs bnhliers and
pot his ndclress, and- then wrbte.tp-fiirn
(a BtiDUli letter) for an explanation, and
waited. .v. '
Agnes got worse. We could nottest
I ypwed vengeapc3 Bgaln6t;tllo'.ma'n;'and
unanie to stana tue suspense mid loneli
ness, one evening, when 'darling'Agnes'
lifo was almost trembling in the. balance;
I rushed jont to do something, ''"re "idy tq
encounter any dangrr in search of forgel-
fnlness of our injury. Only a few weeks
since be bad gone. ,and this was .the re
sult ! I could scarcely credit it.
I went out.. It was a lovi-lyi nigbt; I
stood upon the stop t and lookod across
the moonlit bay,- at the southern' side of
which the lighthouse rose disdainfully.
A Aj.hU came lull upon my face', and' with
it, came the thought I will go out to the
11 htbouse. '
I descended, rapidly at first,-and' then
more slowly, and begin to think;'but
still I went down, and met Bob Murray,
my' boatman, as I enterjicl a shop tq alike
a smnll purchase. 1 f '
We ran out quickly, and in about an
hour was close to the lighthouse. A
simultaneous roar of "Ahoy th're"
brought my old friend Dobson to the
g tilery.
The tide was out; a well-judged spring
us the boat roso to the wave, and I landed
safely on the granite. When I turned
ronna again jiiurray was 'nireaaytsix leet
Irom my perch.
4'Good nigbt. Bob. Gome' back to,
morrow; tell them I'm coming soon; if
they ask forme. I'm nil right;''
Aye, aye, sir. Good night I" Mur
rey ran for home with the. sheet hauled
well aft, and lying as cloxe to the wind
as the Hastened sail would draw.
I turned nnd found Dobson at my el
bow. Ue bad beard my parting words
and commented anon them thus, In a
tone that chilled me through and through
If ye g"ts ashore much inside of a
week I'm a Dutchman, and saving your
presence, Mister 'Enery, you's nnortier 1
Come in now the flood's makin' if you
please,"
We entered the lighthouse together,
and as we ascended the winding stairway
Dobson said i
"Did ye brine aaoht with ye, sir
have ye brought any clothing, or any
thing?"
"Jnst enough for a night," I replied.
"Because, look ye here," ho said, and
denly changing his tone. He led me to
therwind ward side of. the' gallery which
we Jastihen reached. "D'yejsee yonder
linelubon the sea J'' N
'Tfes iwhat of it? lis a breeze earn,
ing up- all the better."
('All the worser I Last time I see that
with this m6on,and after these warnings,
was whe the Oa'fllly Castle, went dosrn
on yonder reef, and only fifty was saved
out o .nlgn three nunurea auoara, , -I
coufess I felt a dull sensation of dread.
That some calamity was pending, I felt
sure. I shivered, not with cold though
and looked steadily at Dobson. .Then
affecting n cheerful manner, I replied:
"But there's no prospect of storm
yet, apd there is plenty of time Xof any
ablp to get an offlng if tho skipper can
read- the sky as well as jou. At any rat
I'm quite safe here."
"Aye, aye, for that mitter,afe apongb,
But ye see, Mr. 'Enery well
all right; come inside."
We ascended through the bed-room.
There were three bed betwteu the win
dows, a cuckoo clock, an almanac, the
stove-pine tending upward, pom cloth-
ing, and two t If scopes, and some-other
nautical necessaries were vUlbl at
glance. The bed-room v as plainly and
rather scantily furiished. Some books
were Oh tbe single table, and in a cup
beard were some blue lights. A pair of
pistols, three cutlasses, and bayonets
were also noticed by me, and I wondered
why fire-arms were kept there.
Ah I gazi'd round tbe room the cuckoo
burst open the little wooden door with
tremendous energy, aud "ccckoo'd" ten
times, retreating again only just in time
to escape a blow from the door.
A sallot' descended from tho upp'r
floor. He twas rather asttuished to see
me. t thiuk) but in a moment he touched
Ids cap, and professed himself glad to
see "a friend of his mate's, who was a
friend of his, nnd welcome" so he said.
"Mister 'En rj's goiu' to tkko a berth
hero to-night, Judkins," said Dobson.
'Yon and me will nrrange about a shako-
d un, It's m watch at midnight, sd hi
cuu:turn iu o soou as he likes."
I should prefer being up with yon,
Dobspu," I said; "I want to see the sea.
and how things look iu tho dead of night.
it.must.be very weird and very grand
here iu a storm."
."Aye, aye, .sir. You'll bare storm
enough. Belter sleep while yc can, and
let , tbe sea take care of itself,."
But I came to sit. up," I remarked,
"and unless you object "
"Me,. Mister 'Euery 1 Not a bit of it.
Come aloft if yo like; I'll keep ye company."
We went np to the gallery again, and
stood leaning over, gazing steadily,
half-dreamily, nt the heaving, water. The
sea was evidently rising, and yet the
long, heavy, booming Sfletl rolled in
without breaking till close upon tbe rocks.
Then the roar arose, tho spray, dashed up
in, vain attempts to reach the beacon,
and fell back exhausted on th whitened
sea.
As I continued to look across the moon
lit waves, a strong sensation of tho un
reality of it all came upon me. I
could fancy it all unreal; I know and felt
that I 'as iu the ligbtbouso, that nil was
right, that I was in good health and spir
its, and yet all the surroundings appear
ed as if I were in n dream. I could see
a shape in the water beneath, a dark
form, and lo I suddenly it was clad in
white, a female shape, ascending to the
gallery. I knew tbe face in tbe lantern
light. It was Agnes. Strange illusion t
I called out; tho form vanished; the
spray sploshed heavily down to tbe wa-
ter, 'and Dobson approached mo quickly
and anxiously.
'.'Did you call, Mister 'Enery ?"
"Yc, I did," I replied, "The spray
.very nearly came up into the gallery. It
tartled me. , .
"That's nothing," replied Dobson
.I'yon'U bavo it over the lantern afore to-
morrpw. Hold, np your hand. Dye
feel the salt on it?" f
. I put up my palm to tbe wind, and
then touched my toucue with it., It was
quite salt to the taste.
"You'll excuse me, sir, but you's'look-
ing pule aud word out. Turn in, and
coma np at daybreak. Thai's the time
to see tho sea, and sunrise too."
I knew the well-intentioned sailor was
quite right. I was over-wrought; my
nerves were highly strung; I wn'uted rebt
"Will yon call me early, or if un) thing
turns np ?"
"I will, sir; you shall know. One of
m mites is goiu' ashore nt dawn; I'll
call ye then for certain sure." '
So we bade each other a good nigbt
and I descended to tho sleeping-room in
semi-darkness. In ten minutes I must
have been sound asleep; the noise of the
waves dashing outside, and tbe rushing,
sound of the wind, far from keepiug me
awake, were soothirg to my troubled
spirit. I sit pt.nordid the restless cuckoo
in the clock that whirred and chirped
the hours through the stormy night
awake me from my dreaming. .
I was half aroused by a touch npon the
shoulder, and opened my eyes, but Ibe
semi-darkness was still before thim.
Then a voice I know said :
"Tom's just off, but the morning's wet
and stormy, sir. Be advised and stay
below; you "
I had Iain down again, and was asleep
once more before he bad completed the
sentence.
I must have slept some time, when a
dull sound aroused me. I looked about,
and it was not till the clock-door burst
open aud tbe bird came out that I recol
lected where I was.
"Cuckoo!" I counted six strokes. Then
the dull and distant sound came down
npon tbe wind, aud I began to wonder
what it was.

the noise and borne it hard against the
stone-pillar wherein I lay. I could bear
Dobson and bis companlun hurrying to

former passed the door, I called aloud,
and he came in hastily.
"Wbafa the matter, Dobson ?"

that was drifting helplessly, it seemed
fairly down upon the cruel line of jagged
rocks that were now and then visible to
windward.
"Now, mate," said Dobson, "yon and

from tho other young men, who over

They had borrowed Mr. Fcudrewitt's

tbey bad drifted, and though tbey liail
managed to keep off Ihe shore, the set of
the tide carried them to leeward, aud tbe

and sank in eight fathoms.

mingled feelings. Tbe letter referred to

Tbe saddest faced man we bavo seen

tho cither day, and sat down near the sa

He didn't seem inclined to talk, and
we didn't know exactly what to make of

He had road probably halt an hour,
when onr attention was called tq him by
well defined sob.
We looked hastily up. The roan sat
there with tbe paper beforo bis eyes, the
