MY MOTHER-IN-IAW.
I married. one evenlmr lo autumn,
A rosy cheeked, rollicking girlj
Ht eyes were as bright as midsummer,
Her teeth were like pebbles of pearl.
Tho presents were early presented,
As hulidaoiiie ns ever I saw,
Rut donors quite frequenlly whlrpcrcdi
"Beware ol your mother iu law."
I rented a one story cottage,
Just out of the noise of the (own,
And happy as orioles maled,
We settled cOntenlrdly down.
Aod sunif hnw it presently happened
That bundles and daiutiis I saw
Puss into the diuir of our kitchen,
Sweet gifts from my mother ill-law.
Sometimes when my labor was heavy,
And wages exceedingly low,
I sank on my pillow discouraged,
D.-wniliug my trials ami woe.
But trouble was suddenly lilted.
And Icy ill humor would thaw,
When round rolling dollars would jingle
From tl.e hand of my mother-ill law.
But nnco on a cold winter morning,
When snow mantled volley slid hill,
The wile I had cherished so fondly
Lay silent and speechless utid still,
Ami I with two wco littlechildrtn
Was Iclt in the world all alone,
To long for a smile that had vanished,
Tu weep for a face that had gone,
I thought of the soriows about mo,
I thought of the varied past.
And wondered what hand in the future
Would fondle my darlings at l:i t
And lo, like an angel from Heaven,
Through torrentauif tear drops I saw,
A form hendingdown to my babies,
Tho form ol mv mother-In. law.
A WIFEKHAM.

Slucliir'a young wile uuruistakublv a.
pout lor, though n wife of almost tan
years, her fund, ludtllgent huibaud had
for the .'ir.it time said bay to an openly
ox pressed wish.
The fancy bull of the season, n grand
and fashionable iis-emblige, was to Ink,
ptico during his nbseuce, and he hud
uid that he should preler If she would
not attend.
She wan only CO. Let this much b-
sitid in txtc Dilation of the two great
tmrs that rose to the browu eyes uud
slowly trickled down the pretty face,
splashing onto the dainty itioruiug dries
which, cliuging to the d.dnly foitu, re
vealed so perfectly Us graceful outlines.
Certiiinlv Ninbe Lad no reasoD to feel
ashnuied of this one of hit children.
But Gerald Sinclair had ouly Hoofed
ami kii-sed nway the gllsteulug drops tu
a half hurried manner, perhnnj to hide
his awakening rtruorse.
"NrVer mind, little wlfej I'll make It
np to yon auotht-r time."
Then he wns gone; but she 6at still,
tnroiug uud returning her ueddiug rtug,
with eyt-s bent upon it. It was nciitinns
riog--it bolid baud, set with five large
diamouds.
It had been her charm, ber talisman,
not to be taken from her finger uulll soul
and body had parted; bnt I his morning
it bad lost its charm. If it failed to
scatter the clouds, it failed to bring back
the sunshine.
Even when the hour came round fur
Gerald's home-coming ho missed his
usual warm welcome) but he thought
I hat he might trust his wile's hinrt, mid
siid nothing Tun bext day he started
on his j luruey.
Y .u're nut going, my dear?' ex
claimed Mrs. Martiu, bursting iu upon
tar friend ou ilia uioruii-g of the ball.
And why not?''
"Giruld ia ay." replied Mrs. Sin
clair. with soma little nhow of wilily
dignity, as though the fact wereiu ll-ilt
sufficient explanation, ;
"And why need that make any differ
ence?" pursued Mrs. Mnrlin, a bewitch
ing Utile widow anme years her friend's
seuior. "I will share my tscort with

Sophie Sinclair looked np n mined.
She knew that the man mentioned had
bnt lately gained entree into sociMjvind
knew alio that her husband disliked nnd
distrusted him.
Once or twice she had rren hisye
fixed admiringly ipon hersilf, nnd had
r.lt Romenhiit ns the bird miuht feel be-net-th
tho basilisk glare of the serpent.
"Well, why don't yon answer?'' con
tinued Mrs. Martin. "Will you go?"
"No, no," she replied, trying to speak
with firm decision. "Besides. I do not
think lhat Gerald admires the count."
"Prejudice, my dear, nil preindirc
The count is ouo ol the most charmii g
nml ngrtenble men I know. Indeed, 1
think I should be canonized for my wil
Ungues to share his intentions, especial
ly ns I have heard hltn say all manner of
pretty things about yon."
"Nnnseose, Ellen," retorted Mrs.
Sinclair.
But she felt the ground slipping be-
neatu her reel ns she spoke.
"1 will go," she said nt last, after con.
tinned urging, and looking at the pic

uir in nu ns nrigiitest lights, "on one
condition, and that is no one is to know
me not tven the count. Say that von
have persuaded a friend to accompany
you, who wishes to remain unknown.
I will come to ynnr house, wh re ho will
find me, nud thus gaiu no clew-."
So it wns decided; but. in spile of her
exquisite costume of a fairy as she con-
ceiiled it uud hersrlf beneath n large
ilomitio, as the chick of her tunnlel
chimed 10 it seemed to S iphle that every
stroke said: ' Sts sta 1"
She was almost tempted to obey it.
but she hud promised Elleujnud, aft.r
nil, she had heard lhat it was Well fur
young wives to ussert themselves.
The ball was at ils height as the clook
ring out the hour of midnight, but fur
the first lime iu her lire light nnd gsyety
wero distasteful. A huudred times'sho
wished herself at home.
"I will tell Gerald. I have already
been punished," she whispered to her
self, us she stood fur a moment alono in
ii quiet corner.
"Yon Ionic mora like a nnn than n
fairy rather like one wlm had forsworn
the vuuities of the world than n siren to
tempi mm to their destruction,"' said h
voice close to her, "Ihoticb to the lattir
I know uo one more fitted."
"Sill" she exclaimed, indignantly, re
cogutzltig.as she spoke, the count stand
lug at her elbow.
"Ahl jovt thought I did not know you,
I should penetrate any disguise jtu
wore. lUuidtR yon have forgotten to ie
move a badge of recognition."
She followed with he'r eyes his down
ward glance, and saw that It rested ou
her hand, nngluved, ns In better accord
with the exigencies of her costume.
Iuvoliititurily she drew it away, with
the Hug which had betrayed her.
Denial whs listless.
"Since jou know me, then," she said,
"we will not further play a part. To
the others we are masks; to ourselves we
are ourselves."
"Ah , madame," be whispered, "let
us rather say to the world we are onr.
selves, to each other we are a mask. Can
men, think you, look coldly ou such
beauty as yon possess? Can"
Indignant aud alarmed she checked
his further speech by startiug forward to
escape him. Ills timid clneed on bet's t a
in u vise. She wrenched it Irom him,
sprang amoug n crowd of maskers, aud
so niadii hir way to Ibe door.
'Cilia cirriaga lor me." she directed.
Tru roiuuten later she was within h,r
owu home. IL-r first impulso was to

ber eyes and Ionkid, the color meauwhile
fluttering out of her clucks, and ber pale
Hps quivering, as If her heart seemed to
stand still In n sudden ngouy of fear, for
from the third finger was uilssin,! tho
tulistnnulc ring.
When and whero had she lost II? and
how could she find tho courage to con
fess nil to Gerald? She r:se and dressed,
revolving this problem in lur mind.
At any hour lur husband might re
turn. For the first time she dreaded to
meet him dreaded to look iuto his kind
ly, handsome cyts and read there all his
iucredolons reproach, mingled, perhaps,
with scorn aud anger.
The day worn ou. Ilcr friend, Mrs.
Martin, ran iu to scold her for her de
sertion; but her pale face and trembling
tones aiada good her plea of sudden ill
ness.
At nightfall Gernld nnived. She
threw herself into his arms in a burst ol
nervous weeping; but when ho wonder
ingly neked its cause, her courage failed
her.
Why was it she never imagined that he
might look stern until to-da?
A week passed, when one evening, sit
ting in the twilight, n step sounded
close beside. She looktd up to dlscotcr
the count.
"Pardon!" ho began, in answer to Ler
indignant, questioning look, "Vli
must ymt be so cruel? May I n it now
see you?"
Sir, I command you to leave me. I
am now under tho protection of my own
roof."
lie was ub in t to .tuswer when a Intel
key was heard inserted in tho outside
door.
In an instant he had sprung into some
place of concealment, but the fact thai
he was near lent lo the young wjfu u
sudden courage born of the moment's
ilesperutiou. Her husband, entering,
Hpprouched her, but she motioned him
luck.
Gerald," she said, "I have a bitter
confession to make. It is fitting you
should hear it now."
Ho listened, with arms folded acroiR
his breast, while sho told him nil tho
story of that fated l ight.
Aud is this all?" he questioned bit
terly, when she paused.
No, not all," she continned, raising
her voice. "My coufisstou has nuother
witness, who has forctd his hated prts-
ence again upou me, ilio ujuui Lti
zoul is hi re again, Gerald."
As she spoko she drew aside the cur
tain, but the form she expected lo dis
ci ise was gone, the open window attest
ing to its flight.
Silently the husband drew a paper
from his pocket and showed her a para
graph olUring n reward for the arrest ot
a thief nud swindler kuowu as the Count
Bclzonl.
"My darling." be said, "my little wire
has learned n lesson she will ntver for
get. I have known this stoiy all tl.e
time, but have waited until you came to
tell it to me. I returned tho night of
the ball to take you with lno, when I
found ymi had gone. Imngiuo what I
suflered nnd my added siiUVring when,
nrrlving nt tho sceue t f et jnj meut, where
I had followed you, I uVcovtred who
was your companion. I htood near and
heard the words he addressed to you
heard with Joyful heart your nnswir;
siw yon wrench your bauds Irom his
hold, and nl-io saw what yon did nut, the
sparkle of the riug he drew from your
tinger. Poor little girl! I watched jou
hastcu through tho crowd, and knew
that you had already met your bitterert
punishment. It has been through my
efforts that tho count has been tract rl
nud exposed. Only this morning I re
ceived our run: from the niutt with
whom lie had pledged it as security
Ouce more I place it ou your finger.
Hut remember, dulling, it is only the
outward charm. A wile's true tuli.man
is her husband's honor.''
FRUITS OF ADVERTISING.
A prominent business firm, which
has growti rich by liberally patronizing
the printer, writes the following on at!
vertling: "We have for many jears
studied tho art of advertising, nud still
in remains ft marvel to dh thai there is
nit rt hundred linns more of it. We
never et knew n man lo advertise hi
wares liberally nnd steadily that it did
not imy. Yet ihtro ore tbotiiomds of
manufacturers, and tens of thousands of
men, having articles which they declare
O'luht to be 'in every household iu the
oonntry,' who advertise m gingerly nt d
closely ns though they had lit heart no
faith iu it at nil How can theyexpttt
to get their goods anywhere unless some
knowledge of the article first gets into
the family cewspapei? If we waited till
people learned from their ueighbors we
might wait for years before the most
wnuderful and useful invention became
known.'
Among those who labor for future
happiness he is greatest who lives well
iu his owu household.
The liberal man who cats aud be
