Mildred Poicy always had a "bosom Irieud one of that romantic order of be- ingi to whom she 'told everything; but Ibe one selected from all others was Ida Bryant, a sentimental companion ol boarding-school life, to wlirim Bbe vowed eternal friendship. Notonly alllier own but all her family secrets, were1 cnflded to her bosom friend; and thus a sort of conhtrulnt was exercised over all Mil- dred'a actions by her exacting friend.and such friendship was by no mnaDS a source of happiness to thayonDglady. For I ' was very.jenlous, and cqnld not tolerate the idea of any other person comint; near her dvoled follower, for Mildred P.roy waa Id Bryont n obscqnious follower. At school all her complaint were ponred into Ida'a ear a moat nnwise connselor for a sensitive yorrtjg girl, for wnat Ida advised, Mildred obeyed; and sbe mnst pay the most devoted attention to her drar friend Ida, who watched Mil dred's every aotlon with snspieions eyes So the school dayi pissed od, and the two returned home to enter npon a life or gayety; for the p.rents of both were wealthy, and nothing waa spared to make tUelr entrance into society brilliant Mildred Percy Was beautiful, and bad many lovly trails of character; gentle aud affectionate, she was one who gave her whole heart tq the onu she lovtd, bnt waa lacking iti ktrong principles by wbioh to steer her bark. And thna-Ida Ilryant exercised a powerful influenoa over the young girl. After two seasons of fashionable life. Mildred attracted tbe attention of Clar ence Buskin, a high-minded, noble and straightforward man, charmed with the sweetness and feminine graces of Mil. dred Pvroy. We meet he two girls in the yonng Udy's dressing roi an, a stormy evening confining them to the boose Mildred posrlag the atorj of her Jotb Into tho ear of Ida Bryant, for there was an engage ment between tbe pair, the marriage to be postponed for a 'year. 'And so you exptct Clnrenoa alwava to be the same devoted lover, Mildred?" said the bosom friend; "yon had better get rid of that faucy, dear, for I'va never seen it yet in married life." "loan trust CUrenca," aho replied; 'he ii such n noble oharaoter." "He is seven years older than you.Mll- dred I I wonder If you are his first love?" Mildred's eyes- dropped, and the first drop. of snptcton was . distilled into the young lie'art. " I hayo heard n little romance," Ida continued, "about him and his conRln. Lucy Douglass did he nover.Epeak to you about her?" 'Never particularly,-Ida; I know that he baa such a cousin, but ho has never told me how beautiful she is." I don't liko that, Mildred; she is a perfect benuly, they say, and tha two wero.brought up together iu their Arint Leonard's family. I should think that he would have toid you all about his young days." Just then the bell rang, and the ser vant announced Mr. Kuskln. ' Go ddwH. Mildred,"' said Ida. "I know that you prefer his company to. mine, and I havo a cbarintng bbok that I wnnt to finish." Mildred , could scarcely analyze ber feelings ns she walked slowly down stain lo meet ber lover.for she had alwaysihur rinl v.ith bouudiug steps before, i She did not believe .one word, of what' Ida had.bliited, bnt she wished she had uot.heard. the foolish story. KotwithslaUding.hcr manner was ratb I er cold; but she did not mean to be so, and Clarence noticed it. "What ails you, darling?" he asked. "I don't know, Clarence; I believe I'm not very well, that'a all." Then they chatted a while, bnt not as formerly, and Clarence, unrolling a piece of music, asked Mil. rd to try it. It was a lovely song, and she aang it sweetly, to please Clarence. At last the constraint wore oil, and under tho power of Clarence Ituskin'a fas cinations, Mildred was herself again. lie stayod later than usual, and when she returned to ber bosom friend, Ida re marked: "You must have had a delightful eve ning, Mildred, for it is nenily eleven o' clock. It was pleasant, Ida) but I wonder if I bad not better say something to Clar enco about his cousiu?" "Nonsense, child!" was the reply, "he wouldn't, tell you the truth, for I don't believe that ha has lived to be nearly thirty without n love affair. Yon had' lie t Ur be contented, Mildred; perhaps you wouldn't like to hear more." The story rankled, howeYer, and she made the great mistake of conoealing Irom ber intended husband these foolish rumcm. Every now and then Ida dropped her imprudent words concerning this cousiu, aud Mildred wished that she knew what was re; lly tbe truth. She did not know how soon shp was to be brought face to face with this imagin ary rival. One evening Clarence came with the Intelligence that Lucy Douglass wax com ing to pay a visit to a Irieud iu N6w Yprk. ';I wish that you know her, Mildred," he 6nld; she is one of the sweetest girls that I ever kuw, mvo one, nnd I know that you will learn to love her," "You have nevor taid much about her, Clarence," wtm the reply. "That is true, dear; I have been so much engrossed. With my own darling, tbtt 1 almost forgot my cousiu Lucy. We were brought up together) and pssed our young days in the same bouse." "Is she beautiful, Clarence?" "Perfectly lovely," was the reply. "Accomplished, too?'' 'Yes; no pains have been spared to polish the sweet girl." "And good, too, Clarence?" "Yes, Mildred truly excellent." "I v. ouder how you withstood all these attraction. Clarence, being in the same hou e, too," "Nonsense, Mildredl I don't liko such hintn.for Lucy to me is a beloved sister." "Forgive me, Clarence," she said; "I didn't mean to hurt you," Ou the following week tbe young lady irrived aud Mildred hastened to call. It was all true for Lucy Douglass was lovely, aud sbo stw that there was a strong bond of attachment between the ;o eoiuius. Clarence wished lo mako her visit pleasant; aud in all the pulitw mado lor her by laud aud water, Mildred was ex pected to bo one. "Don't you tee how he remembers the old love?" said Ida; and poor Mildred was tormented still by jealous thoughts. bhe saw, too, that there was a secret bttween the two, for sbe often surprised tbrm talking coLfidcntly aloue, aud saw that Lucy waa troubled about something that sbe did not understand. Bat Lucy's visit cams to an end, and Clarence took ber home to .ber aunt's. staying several days with the family. Keeping ber thoughts to herself, Mil drdd was still annoyed, when n few trust ing words could have set all right; but Ida was always in tbe way-.snch an un Wise booom friend. Tbe wedding-day at length arrived, aud Mildred Percy took the sacred vows of wife to Clarence Ilnskin. Altera short w;ddiug trip, they took potsesaion of a lovely home.atid Mildred, witb such a noble huhbanti, might have beeu one of tbe happiest of women, but the breath of the bosom friend still pois oned the atmosphere of wedded love. One rooming at the breakfast table, CUrence read a letter jost banded to him ani laying it down, said : "LncyU com ing to pay us a visit, Mildred; sba i not well." The wife did not ray tsncb, but iron- dered why Clarence did not band ber the letter. At length she said, rathor coldly, "I will get ber room ready." The husband looked at her earnestly, saying : "I hope that my wife will make my cousin welcome." "Yon neod havo no fenrs," alio ml'; "I shall never forget my duty." Ue arose suddenly, and taking bin hat, left the bouse without the usual kiss. This was the fii-xt cloud In the matri monial sky, and Mildred was miserable all day. When her husbftnd returned; alio has tened to meet him, and throwing btr arms aroun'd bis neck, she said: "I hope.thnt you are not offended, Clar ence. '1 was a little hurt at your manner this mornlnfr, Mildred; but it's all pair, love, aud we won't talk uboutsuch fo'.ly." The young guest arrived, and Mil- dred's heart was touched ny tho sight of tho. sweet palo face, and she resolved to do all that she oould to cheer tha droop ing girl. But Mildred was stiil dlstuibed, for there was evidently n confidence between the cousiua that the wife did not share; and, most unwisely, she confided these troubles to ber bosom friend. I have always told you that there was an attachment between the two, Ida said; "nnd now I hope you believe me." But sbo may have somo personal troubles that cannot be spoken .of to every, oue; and you know, I Ja, that Clar ence is just like a brother to Lucy." "I don't soe much that is brotherly,- Mildred. You must know that there should be no concealments from a wife, Mildredj aud I wouldn't stand it if I were yon. ' She hid her sorrows in hef own bosom, but there was a chill creeping- between tho wedded pair, for the sacreduess of married lilo bad been invaded. No pleasant chat now t Ibe, breakfast table, fof the two were Unconsciously drilling apart. It is so easy to disturb the peace Of wedded life; and yet Mil dred thought that sbe was performing the duties of a wife, by the most punctil ious attention to her husband's comforts, but with snch a cold, averted face. Lucy received fre-q'tent letters, and whenever that was the case tho twe cons ins were closeted together iu the library. Then there was an icy coldness in the parlor, and Mildred would retire early to her room. And yet tbe slglit of Lney'y palo and often tearful face touched Mildred's heart, for she was sure that there was some heart-rending trouble crushing that deli cate frame. Once ahe came suddenly npon tbo young lady iu the library whera sbo bad just read a letterj and was pfessing to her lips a likeness of a gentleman, but Mil dred could not see tbe features. Bnt Lucy raised her eyes, to Mildred's face, and said: "Jnst wait a littlo while, dear friend, and you shall know nil my terrible story; but I can t tell you now." "Imprudently Mildred told the tale to ber bosom friend, who asked: "Did you see the picture?" "Not plainly, Idaj but Lucy wns great ly distress d," "How do you know that it was not your hukbnnd's pictutt?'' "Stop, stop, Ida;' I'm sure tbat it can not be you must not say snch dreadful things to mo any more." Iu a few days aftir this a letter arrived which prostrated poor Lucy, and all that she could say wns: "Send for Clarence; I must go immed iately." "Go wbert?" Mildred asked. "Clarence will tell yon ; but it will kill me-it will kill me." Sending for ber cousin, bs hnrried tn the side of the sufferer, and nfter readiug the letter, be said: "Poor.dear child! has itcome to this?" After they hnd seen her quietly iu bed, Clarence calld.l his wife to tha library, nnd throwing bis nrin around her, bo tuld Lucy's ad story. She had formed an unfortunate attach ment to .Horace Dunbar, much disap proved of by her friends; but sbe mar ried him privattly, nnd he bad proved to be a man of utterly worthless thar.icter, and having committed a forgery, was biding'froni tbe law beuco tbe conceal ment; but the last letter brought the in telligence that be bad been attested, and was now iu prison, awaiting bis trltl. "In her troubles. Mildred, I have fried to bo a brother," he (.aid; "and now you mnst sea how unjust and foolish were your susplcions.for Lujy has always been to me jnst liko a beloved sister," 'Forgive roe, Clsrencc." she said; "how oould I ever harbor a siulo doubt of one so good nnd trm? But Ida" "Yes, Mildred, a bosom friend has made all our trouble." "I am not worthy of yon Clareuce, tbe sobbed out, "for how oould I listen for oue moment to snoh a lalne friend? Bat It is all done I have learned a ter rible lesoo; bat it has taught ino wis. dom. Folding her in his arms, be said: "And now, love, we are tinly oue; for no Ida Bryant can ever come between n again, Mid we will be happy once more in our qnlet world of love. "No othtr bosom friend but my noble hatband," she sid. "Hou could I ever be guilty of such a great fault? But let mo tell yon all, Clareuce how I was led away by my own weakness " "I would rather not, love," he said; "it would only cause jou pain." "Bat I must, Clarence, make a full confession, a iu then the subject will be dropped forever." Then, with all tba frankness of n child aud tbe penitent lote of a Iruu womin, Mildred poured out ber whole heart, and at the close Clarence pressed ber to bis bosom, and. with fond khicsoa ber tear ful cheek, Rid "We have renewed our mstriago vows, dear, nnd now our souls will grow to gether, and we shall bo truly one." Lucy Inslt-ted on going to ber husband, for liko a (ma woman she remained faith ful because alt others had forsaken him. Next morning Clarence accompanied the heart-brokou wife to tbe prison tb see her husbind in a felon's cell, where tbre wrg n heartrending interview; for with nil his faults, Horace Dunbar loved bis nenlle wife. Bringing ber homo acnin, Mildred re celved tbe por crushed wife to her warm young hearf, nnd in the shelter of that loving home, tbo sufferer found a refngf from tho stoims of llfo, where, ont of sight of the noisy world, sbo bore her sorrow in Rolilude, witb God oaly for her comforter. The rupture botween tho married pair might bat-o been hltlch moro diais'rrins in the bands of a different man j but Clarence understood his young wif , and Was very sure he bad alwajs Rot upon the throne of h"r heart, and loft it to'thn developments of time to heal the sorrow ful breath. fdatiryaut saw that ber refgn was over, for nover again did sbe dare to whisper n suspicious word, nud Mildred bad learn ed that a husband is tbe only bosom friend of n trite wife. Labi's UdoX tJPSfiTTING K0SE3. Jim Manly began to talk ' "I say, Deaoon, Darwlu's theory of evolution is a little bard on tbo first chapter of Genesis. Of course we dou't know yet how it will turn out, but it looks a little as though they were going to upset Moses." Tbe Deacon made no answer. He sure ly must have heard JiniV remark. Pres ently he wns observed to ba counting his Augers slowly, and with pauses between each enumeration for thought. After a while Jim Vcutured to nsl; "Counting up tho saw-logs, Deacon, aren't you?" "No," paid the Deacon, "I'll tell you Yonr remark set me to thinking. I was just counting up how many times in tbe course of human history somebody bas. attempted to upset Moses. First of all, two old jugglers named Jannes and Jam bres undertook this, but tboy failed, Then a Certain king named Pharaoh went at the work-of upsetting. He must have found it moro work than be anticipated, for be lias not reachod homo yet, Then three leaders of liberal thought Korab, Dathan ncd Abfram -went nt tho job. They failed in the upsetting pari ; but they secured a bit of a rancbe for them selves, which they and their children bold quiet possession of until this day. Later on a king named Nebuchadnezzar entered upou the npselting busiuc?; be did nOt succeed either. He spent seven years chained to a stump and When ho had served out bis time ho had changed his mind, ahd was a sadder and a wiser man. His successor met with still great, er disaster in a similar attempt. Since that time there have beeu ni end of per sons who biWo tried to upset Moses Some ancient 'heatheD, Ce-lsus and Por phyry and Julian, tho apostate, nud lat terly these German critics nnd scientists, so called, are at the Fame thing. Yuarft ago, when I chanced to be in Boston, I beard of a meeting of Freetbiukers'at a place called Chapman Hall. I could not resist the teniptntion to go jut ence and hear what they raid. I found about 20 pcrsoi a there; three or four of them wo men and tbe rest men. And what do yon tbiuk they were engaged iu? The old euterpiise of upsetting Moses. Aud yet Moses has to-day in -the syangogues of Boston moro persons that preach bi'ui than bo ever had before. It is astonish ing bow mueh upsetting it takes to upset Moses. It is like upsetting a granite cube turn it on which face you will, thcro it stands as solid as ever. Tbe cube Is used to being upset, and docs not mind it. It always auiusrs me when I hear n fresh cry from soma now quarter nverriug that somo mau whom nobody ban ever before heard of bus found ont a suro way of doing what all others Luvo failed Iu, Aud now herd comes Jim Manly, aud Muses has to be upset again.
