THE ANGEL SLEEP,
sr AMnua tvintwobtu fitok.
When tho day Is done and the shadows fall
Over the earth like a dusky pall,
Then from the mystic, the silent drep
Rises the beautiful Angel Sleep.
O'er field and forest he spreads his wings
Where the cricket chirps and the wood-bird
sings,
And the murmur of voices dies away,
Stilted by the Angel calm and gray.
Human passions that surge and swell
Are silenced soon 'nealb the mystic spell,
And tlrrd hearts that are used tn weep
Yield to the power of tho Angel Sleep.
Softly he broods till the morning gray,
Then as noiselessly glides away,
And the spell is lifted and hearts again
Take up their burden of care and pain.
Wo call him Deatlil 'Tis the Angel Sleep
That comes at last Irom the silent deep
And smooths lorever the brow of care,
And calms the fever of passion there.
So we sleep and rest, till, the morning gray
Breaks nnco more, of an endless day,
And into (lie mystic, the unknown deep
Flies forever Iho Angel Sleep.
ONE WHITE HAIR.
'What la It, Smithern?" Bald Mrs. Bel
laira to her laity'a-ronid.
"Nothing, ta'va," she replied; only"
"Ouly wbul?"
'One white bair, m'm."
Mrs. Uellairs sat before ber toilet glass,
while her mold manipulated her jet
black tresses, Smttbers, in stopping
short In the operation, hnd insensibly
been betrayed into mukitig a slight ges
tura of surprise. The incident was seen
in th mirror by her mistress, and cari
osity prompted her to question ber maid
on the matter.
"Impossible!" said Mrs. Bellairs, in n
most incredulous tone.
"If you will per nit toe, m'm, I'll ra
move it."
Tho moid took the oflendiug silvery
thread between thumb and index-finger,
mid with a sharp jerk pulled it out.
Mrs. Iii-llairs gave n subdued shriek.
She took the bair from ber muid and
looked at it a moment iu mute contem
plution, ntid tbea said, nol without u
tremor in her voice:
"True, SiuitberB. You are right; it is
a white beir."
The morning for Mrs. UellairR bad be
gnu badly; how was the evening to enn?
In the upper ranks of socieiy we often

from care nnd niuiety they p iss their

but rather ripen, like ehoice fruit, nith
out losing their fresltuehs nud beauty.
Mrs. Uelluirs was one of these n rich
widow on the right hide of 40 one ol
tiro lrnderN of society, nud popular alike
with men aud women That she bail
been a beauty would be an incorrect as.
sertiou. for ber attractions cannot bi
spoken of iu the past tense. Never bad
she more admirers tbau in the zetiitli ol
ber chnrms. and that she remained Mr,
Bellairs was due solely to ber own
choice.
Now (bat the qnestion of it was foreed
upon ber, sheptrceived that a slightly
growing tendency toward embonpoint
might ultimately spoil her figure, while
a careful consideration of her complex
ion revealed the uuplenBant fact that its
peach like frtsbuess bad sotuev, hat faded.
The proverbial skeleton, too, ws in her
cupboard, clothed iu flesh nud blossom
ing to womanhood, in tbe shape of a
lovely and charming daughter. Ethel
Bellairs was not ''out," ns Mrs. Bellairs
refused to abdicate in favor of her
ditigbter.
The widow played with her breakfast,
glsnied at the Morning Post, nnd, toss.
int herself cn tbe sofa, took up a French
novel by Xuvier Dnplan, entitled "Moth,
er aud Daughter."
She read as follows, "lime. Dalbrnn
waj 40. Iu tbe springtime of life, ac-
cordiug to her own view; in the autnmn
of it, as seen by others. Still handsome
and a rich widow, she possesses every
thing to make life attractive. Sbo was
blessed with ouo daughter, 17 years of
age, who iuberited all her mothers grace
and beauty."
Mrs. Bellairs became deeply absorbed.
Skippiug a few pages, it continued:
"During their visit to Spa one young
man of noble appearance attracted Mmr.
Dilbiuu'a attention. At tbe gaming
tables he played recklessly, and v, on or
lost with the same enay composure. An
acquaintance made at the Bedonte ripen
ed into intimacy, and at balls, concerts,
and tbe Promonide de Sept-IIeureg the
Count do Gaston was tbe constant at
tendaut of Mme. Dalbrun aud her
daughter."
The count, of course, was in love
with Mme. Dalbrun," said Mrs. Bellairs
prcnhttively, "so let us come to tbe In
evitable proposal," aud she turned over
three or four chapters.
"He loved her, Everything tended to
convluce her of this his attentions, tbe
frequency of bis vUlte, and tbe fact that
be had given up gambling at the tables
for ber sake. This thought plunged
Mme, Dalbrun in a moat delightful in.
toxicatton. In tbe blight picture of tbe
future, however, ta sketched by herself,
the disparity in their ages would persiat
in obtruding and gliding inopportunely
on it like a serpent among fl iwert.
Tbe count entered with a solemn and
subdued demeanor, whloh contrasted
somewhat with bis usual easy and famil
iar air. 'Need I explain, madame, the
object of this visit?' i-aid Count de Gas
ton. 'If tnyTsfbole conduct for tbe last
few weeks has not shown that lam in
love, my words yesterday must have
proved it,'
" 'Are yon cure, Monsieur le Cnmte,
that you really ate in lovt?' asked lime,
Dalbrun.
" 'At first 1 doubted it,' gravely an.

The same evening Mrs, Bellairs np

"May I have tbe pleasure, Mrs. Bel

Alexander Pope sayt: "Beauty draws

RUM'SWORK.
ST ELLA OrEnNfEI.
Mother an' me an' faytber lived qnlet
aud happy like iu a little country place.
We had the farm to keep us, an' when
crops were good we bad everything we
wauted; but at last we notice when
faytber came home, his face was scarlet
aud bis eyes heavy. Mother began to
grow white aud anxious-like wbeu be
went to town with corn aud poultry, aud
sometimes went to meet him, and once
f.ijtber lay down iu the wagon while
mother drove the horses. Tbey were a
bit spirited, and yet I didn't know why
she looked so wistfully At biui. Little
by little tbe crops began to fail, some-
b w good luck didn't come, an' faytber's
work went for naught, an' mother's
clothes were gettiog shabby, but she
kept up the bravo, cneerful heart,
nud uever let on bat she was as
happy as in the old days. Faytber
wasn't tbe same to me; be was distant
like, and didn't care to bear me sing my
Forward, boyf, hurrah, we'll Jon tbe glori

He ued to jolu iu the chorus with his
deep voioe, and such a happy time as we
did have but peared like them dtya was
past and the evil ones r drawiu' nigh.
One morning airly ma faytber went
with cabbage to sell to tbe market.
Mother bad au elegant dinner for bim,
but be wasn't home to eat It, an' an' snp-per-tlme
came, au' no faytber back. Tbe
cream-toast and frizzled dried beef an
briled chicken dried up on the apron of
the stove, an' 9 o'clock csme au' no algu

look for him, an' there, nnder Priuce's
feet, lay poor old faytber. Tbe patient
old horse seemed to know it was

said John Harden.
'Yon forget yon are speaking of my
husband," said mother.
Yes, madam, 1 did forget, but it
made me so mad to think Frank would
treat so good a wife this wt.y, au' to be a
ruuulu' after the cursed rum; it's a
shame."
My ryes were opened. I knew of girls
who had drunken fnytbers, but nevir
thought of mine bein' one. So now I
knew what faytber's sick Fpells were.
We pot bim borne, au' when he came to
he was sbumed and sorrowful for what
he'd done, but be went at it again. The
cords held him fust.
Sometimes tie was jolly and good, but
ofteui-r cross, and our comforts were not
so plentiful. Mi t'ler patched more nnd
more, nn' faytber worked less, an" well,
I can't say tbe rest.
One day the officers came after Bossy,
onr very best cow. "It's my very best
cow, an' my daughter's pet; I cau't spare
ber, gentlemen," said mother decidedly.
"Sorry to take ber, but yer man owes
B irnelt, aud he has levied on this ani
mal " With that abo turned while au'
weut into ibe house, an' never mentioned
to faytber tbe cow was gone: He tried
to quit tbeu, bat Barnett had an eye up
on our stock, an' be got it all, every one
of 'em. Poor faytber couldn't quit when
be was so tempted
Another winter came on, an' all our
apples went to Barnett, our cellar didn't
have much to eat iu it, and faytber wasn't
home much.
I didn't darest go to school. Tbe boj s
and girls luffed at my fady dresses nn'
called me Kutby 'case I cried so much
But I couldn't help it, as ofteu I'd find
faytber iu tbo fence-corner, drunk, bis
bat pulled down over his eyes, an' all
rags aud patches. I couldn't bear tbe
scholars to jeer bim, for I love me fay
tber if be did drink.
Night after night mother an' me went
to find him, au' sou ebow got him home.
Oue bitter night we were so uneasy like
W9 could not bleep, au' we buntod every
where, au' stayed out till after midnight,
out did not find him.
Mother was chilled through. She held
me close to her heart, an' she shivered
au' her head was hot, an' I beard ber
prayln' God to tako care of Frank.
In tbe morning mother was out of her
bead an' buruin' with fever, and at night
some men brought faytber bome, almost
dead from tbe cold. They worked with
him, an' kind nurses came and stayed at
our bouse.
Faytherand mother both came to their
senses before they died, an' it was a sor
rowful time then, but tbey loved each
other through it nil. "Oh, Mary, sez
be, "I've been tbo death of ye, but I did
love ye, even when a brute. It is to Iat6
for God to forgiye me, and you, too,
Mary?"
Mother was past speakio' much, but
oh. the love-lfght shone in ber eyes.
She was faithful to the lovo of her youth
to the very last.
They died only a day apart; mother
went first, and faytber never knew any
thing more after his talk.

A HEART0F ICE.
"1 tell yon frankly, L9is, that she is
very fascinating at times, though the
most brnrllesn, wicked flirt that I eyer
met. Witb tbo most faultlexs faco and
figure, tbe most brilliant talents, wealth
and position, Geraldine Churchill wins a
heart to crush it witb tbo most cutting
sarcasm and coldest cruelty. She pre
tends to look upon nil wooers as mer
cenary seekers niter the heiress, but this
isherexcuseforthe caue of ber heartloss
coquetry,"
"Yon are harsh, L!zzie," Baid Dr.
Lewis llogau, smiling on bis little sister
"No, I am only true. Xou have never
seeu her, aud you have been nway so
long, I bave seen her so cold and cruel
that I wanted to warn you."
"Aud wo meet ber to-night?'
"Yes. She is seme relation of Mrs.
Lou'j, and is always at her parties. Now',
tell me all about your journej?"
Geraldine Churchill was standing un
der tbe blaze of a large chandelier when
Lewis llogau and his sister eutered Mrs.
Lee's parlors. Her flush of prnud beauty
and ber regal figure was carried witb
queenly grace. On tbo bands of jetty
bair that swept iu broad braids low ou
her neck sparkled diamond stats, and
Iho folds of black velvet fell round tbe
full figure in rich masses. In spite of
tbe warning Lewis could not repress a
a start of admiration.
Lewis found himself drawn into des
criptions of travel aud easy conversation
by tbat manner tbat bad tbe highest
charm, that of putting strangers perfect
ly at ease. He left ber at last, dazzled
nnd amazed, yet owning somewhat tbe
truth of Lizzie's assertions. There hed
beeu flisbes of wit that ent deep and ko u
into friend"' foibles. ptiDgeut sarcasm-'.
and sharp satrical phrases that told tco
clearly of the indifference for wotiLded
feelings.
Many times in the coming season tbey
met, and Liwis threw caution and pru
dence to the winds, yet be kept bis love
hidden.
Geraldine Chnrcbill suddenly vanish
ed. Mrs. Lee said she ha 1 gone into
the country to reside. Ljwis llngan
shut up his longing heart and turned
brave face to the world, lie was uo
puny, whining lover.
Far nway from the city, where she had
queened it so successfully for one short
winter. Geraldine Churchill lived iu n
small cottage home in a small village.
Witb the crimson gone from ber cheeks,
the light gone from ber eyes, iu n plain
dark dress, the late belle moved among
tbe poorest it her neighbors, bearing uo
trace of the belle, save In ber winning
smile and haughty tones. In tbe cot
tige, where the sick moaning sufferer
craved woman s care, ber band was ever
ready to minister, her voice to sooth
At first whispered, then iu tbe loud cry
of terror rose the sound of despair, an
infectious fever of the most trying de.
scriptiou was raging iu the little village.
Seeking it up and down, in the lowest
cottagi or tbo respectable farmhouse,
Geraldine Churchill nmsed, comforted
and tended tbe sufferers. Volunteer
doctors bad come from cities wltbiu
reach of the cry of woe. By one bed-
aide, where the pale flush of death bad
followed the fever-flush, Lewis Itogan
again met Geraldine Churchill. She
bad been watching many weary nights,
and as she raised ber weary bend from
beudlug over the corpse of ber patient
her eyes met Lewis Rogan's bent in ad
miring tenderness upon her. She was
tired, weak aud ill, aud with a cry upon
ber lips, Bhe stretched forth ber aram
nnd fell fainting at his feet. It was tbe
beginning of a ftver fastened upon a
frame exbausted by long nursing. Ly
ing helpless and unoonscious for days,
there were not wanting nurses for tbe
nnble woman who suffered for them.
Not a well band In tbe village but what
was stretched forth for ber; not an eye
in tho village bnt what shed tears for ber
danger. Formost of all stood Lewi
Rogatt Willing nurses aided bim, and
bis devotion was unwearied. Sick,
feeble and dependent, she was a thous
and fold more dear to bim than when
she swayed all hearts in ber regal beauty.
He won ber from death's crasp, pray ful
ly and skillfully, and meekly she owned
that she owed tbe boon ot ber life to bis
care.
It was when tbe winter frosts bad
xwept away tbe fever that be told ber bis
love aud patience.
"You love me," she said tenderly.
"Listeu, while I tell yon my story. Five
years ago, here iu this little village, I
listened to such n tale.trom lips that had
long before charmed my heart away. I
was rich and courted then; bnt one
month later my father died, nnd I wis
left poor and nameless, proved an adopt
ed child and forgotten Iu Ibe will. Other
brim came to claim all. I .tartecl out in
tbe world to teach. He I told you of de
srtedroe, took all tbe wealth of toy tint
lovo and threw it aside to woo again n
richer maiden. Then I grew hardened!
I will not tell you what a desert place
life stemsW after I looked on tbo loveless,
lone path beforo me. For years I tolled
ou in my sohool, till last fall, when the
will of my adoptod lather was found aud
was again rlob. Witb a heart full of
bitterness I vowed my vegeanco upon all
men, nnd wrote to Mrs. Lee, my adopted
father's cousin, to ask an introduction to
socieiy. I knew my power nnd used it
ruthlessly. Let it pass. 1 soon found
tbat I was playing with edged tools, for
Lewis," and her vcice fell "I love you!
So I came bome to forget nnd try to
atouo for my folly by doiug some good
in my corner here."
"And I find you my love to offer n
life's service to mnko you forget tbe
patuful past, to find tbe warm, loving
heart under n crust of ice.''
