A LEGEND.
BY A.
At tho time of which wo writs there
stood on the outskirts of a noble forest.
with park land stretching for miles be.
lore it, ft gray old mansion, a rolio of the
fuodal times, termed in tho "Dooms-Day
Book" lioswords hall.
No Oner building or estate existed in
the county, with the exception of that of
Sir Sutton de Amhion, at Ambien, whose
deeds of chivalry and great largtsBcs to
the poor had rendered lata tho theme cf
many a squire's song.
Ttiu lauds of this noble bounded on
tho estate of Sir Wolstan de Willoughby,
baron of Boswordo.
Just Ire opposite of hi neighbor, he
wai cold, churlish, and withal of a
bloody disposition, and his favorite say
ing whs:
"I never forgive nn injnry,"
Between the two there bad long sprang
up a fued, which bid fair some day to
lead to deadly strife.
Sir Sutton, however, who was some
twenty summers j'onnger than Sir Wol-
Kino, set out for the holy land to per
form n vow, find thus au immediate
quarrel was averted.
The lady of Sir Woistnu was dead, and
had left behind her two sonn and one
daughter, who was remarkable for her
beauty. Eleanor for such was btr
name had none of ber father's qualities,
but, acting on every impulse, was at tha
same lime so sensitive that she felt keen
ly bis churlishness, nnd, by many secret
acts of kindness and visits to the poor,
bad endeared herself to nil around; and
betweeu her and Sir Sutton a secret at
tachment arose previous to hm depar
ture. "Nay, listen to me, fair lady, and Itt
uot tby father's enmity stand between
ns. Have I not in foreign lauds with
stood the wild fury of tho horseman of
the desert, and warded off the recret
blows of the assassin? Have I not, in the
open lists, laid at my feet knight after
knight without receiving a wound? And
think'st tbou, then, that tby father's
words conld frighten me, hh menaces
terrify me, or bis threats drive ma from
my purpose? I will be up to him this
eve, open my heart to blm, with extend
ed band break the enmity between us,
anu claim ineo, lair Eleanor, as my
bride."
"If thou wlsbeat, Sir Sutton, to des
troy all hop of our union, to mar onr
future happiness, and ran tby life into
dangtr, thou wilt do as thou sayest
This nlgbl Sir Simon de Montford tarri
etb here, and tbou knowest my father's
wish to unite him to me. I shudder
when I think of it, for I would sooner a
viper would nestle In my bosom than
that I should ever be called Eleanor de
Montford!''
"Bull brook not delay when so preot-
ous a guerdon is at stake, nnd that
may communicate to Ibte the result, be
at yon ruined tower when the caifew
tolls."
And with this Sir Satton bounded
away, and was soon lost In the thickness
of tbo wood.
But, that our readers may know bow
tbU interview took place, we must ic
form tbetn that Bit Button bad just re,
turned from bis six years' pilgrimage,
and was inspecting the changes that bad
taken place on hit lands during bis ah
ttuce.
Chance led blm to the margin of a
stream which separated the lands Of Am
bien and Bosworde, on the latter sido of
which a footpath, girt with wild flowers,
led to a woodman's cottago.uear a ruined
tower, lung since fallen to decay.
Eleanor was juBt returning from a visit
to the woodman's wife, who was sick.
Ignorant of the return of Sir Sutton,
great was ber surprise, and a slight
tcrenm escaped ber lips, us with one
bound be sprang across tbo brook, ten
dering her his homage; and, ere long,
tho two, sauntering eida by side, were
soon holding a whispered conversation,
which terminated with tho ahoye dis
course
After ho hnd left her Eleanor wandered
along thosigbtlully, revolving iu ber
mind ber duly toward ber father and her
love for her suitor; and her cheek altern
ately blanched and grew red as she
thought of the reception be would mtet
with from ttir Wolstan, till, resohlug
home, she summoned her maid aud re
tired to ber room.
As tbe bell of Boswordo church tolled
forth the curfew two figures met besldo
the tower.
What their conversation was tbe
chronicler sayeth not; but angry words
had passed between Sir Sutton and Sir
Wolsiao, who, now, more enraged tbnn
ever, would, they feared, enforce a strict
watch over Eleanor.
Tbey pledged themselves, therefore, to
meet nightly at the same spot,and if one
were detained tho other should nightly
return.
And, after a few soft vows of love, she
called her maid, who was iu waiting.and
departed.
"Well, Simon.J and how llko'at tbou
tbe sport our Boswords wood affords?
TlatwasR noble buck that we started,
and a gallant chase be led us!" asked Sir
Wolstan of his guest, some evenings after
tbe nbnye scene.
"Truly the chase was good nnd the
gamo noble; bat my thoughts wore not
with either. My mind has many mis
givings, and 1 muoh fear mo that this
fellow, Sutton de Ambien, still continues
to hold interviews with my pretty cousin
Eleanor," replied De Montford.
"Aha! wby shouldst' thou think so?
She bus been closely guarded; aud old
Rodger, tbe gardener, asures me she
hath uot set foot out of tbo Long wnlk
these six days; so, wby shouldst tbou
now suspeci?"
"Marry, I know not; but last night, ns
I sit by my lultico, I saw two females,
veiled whioh I muoh suspect were my
cousin nnd her maid pass quickly in
the shadow of tbe wall and take tho path
leadiug to tho ruined tower."
"Pshaw, man! Probably some of our
village maidens returning era the curfew
tolled, or, perohauoe, soma of our an
cestral ghosts taking their nightly
rounds. But this must be looked to: I
will watch with thea to-morrow, nnd
should it be as tbou sayest, death to tbe
deceiver and tby iostaut nuptials with
Jileauorl" And, with these words. Sir
Wolstan, now ferocious with passion.Ieft
the apartment.
t
Tho next night, early, the baron seat
ed himself at the lattice ot bis gueet.and
shortly alter the two veiled figures passed
as bo. ore, whom, ho at once recognlzod
as his daughter and her maid. Wild
with fury, be seizsd an arquebus from
the wall, and bidding Montford follow
Lira, hastened arter the retiring figures
ana secreted himself near tha tower,
where be now saw distiuctiy.ln tbe shade,
three figures. Tho whole truth was now
plain to him, nnd ho was about to burst
forth, when De Montford, uo longer able
to control himself, rashed, with his
rapier, on Sir Sutton, but, slipping in
bis haste, pierced to the heart his cousiu
Eleanor, who, at that moment, turned to
flea. At tbu same instant Sir Wolstan
di.cbarged his arquebus, and Ambien
lay a corpse.
The horror with which oaoh was seized,
the one seeing his wishod-for bride, tbo
other his daughter, stretohed In the
moonlight dying, cannot ba despicted.
Safilcu it to say that for a time reason
forsook tho baron's mind, and be lay for
weeks a raving maniac. Da Montford
aised bis dying cousin, and perceiving
ber lips moving put his ear to them,
when, with her parting breath, she
whispered tha word: "Ambien," and ex
pired. After the baron bad partially recovered
bis reason ba caused a large dam to be
thrown across tbe stream below the spot
where the tragedy occarrod, and a beau
tiful sheet of water, two miles long and
one wldo, now covers that ill-fated spot.
He never fully rallied; aud only tbe
ruins of his castle can now be traced,
though a stately mansion Is owned by
his descendants near its site.
De Montford fled to the Merivale ab
bey, and ended bis days iu penance.
Tbe benighted peasant, and the game
keeper on bis nightly rounds, shnn the
precincts of tbe lake, for it is said that
two pale Agates, at times, hover over it,
and tbe woods have been heard to echo
"Ambien."
Such is tbe legend of Bosworde lake.
An old woman named Robinson,
well kuown as tbe Queen of costermong
ers all oyer London wan burled there
recently. She bad been for years a ven
der of e.U'a meat, and mada a small for
tune in small usury. By direction of
ber will, ber remains were borne by four
men wearing smocks, followed by twen
ty-four young women weariDg violet
dresses, l'aisley shawls, hats with white
feathers, and wbita aprons. Tha corpse
was shrouded in wbita satin, with a
handsome wreath round tho head. Free
drinks and pipes were served at pnblio
houses named. Tbers was au immense
attendance, Inclnding numbers of pony
cuts and donkey barrows crowded with
co.lecmongtrs.
THIS LIFE IS WHAT WE MAKE IT.
Let's ollener talK of nobis deeds,
And rarer of the bad ooes,
And sing about our happy days,
And not about tbe (ad ones.
Wo were not made to Itet and sigh,
Aud when grief sleeps to wake it,
Bright happluess is staudlng by
This Ufa is what wa u.akt it.
Let's find tho sunny side of men,
Or he believers in It;
A light there is in every soul
That takes the pains to win it.
Oil there's a slumbering good in all,
And we perchance may make It;
Our band contain tho magic wand;
This llfo is what we mako it.
Theu here's to those whose loving hearts
Shed light and joy about themt
Thanks be to them lor countless gems
Wo ne'er hsd known without them.
OIjI this should be a happy world
To alt who may partake It;
The fault's our own If it is not
This life is what we make il.
A SEA-SHELL.
It is vol much of a ntory, but it would
hive been a great deal bnppitr one if it
hsd not been for tha little pink twisted
shell whioh Jack Wallaca found and gave
to Dora Carter down on tho beach the
day Jack sailed for Bombay.
Tbey had spent tbe nilernoon there on
the beach walking up and down, arm lu
arm, or sitting on soma bit of broken
spar. Jack's arm about her waist, and
ber little brown hand clasped closely in
bis great strong fingers.
They talked about their future; about
the morrow audits parting, and whether
they should ever meet again, and how
Dora would break ber heart if they
didn't.
And Jack told Dora how, when bo was
away ou the sea and in the far-off eastern
Und, he would always think about her
and strivo to keep his life pure aud good
for her sake, nnd never do anything to
render him unworthy of her.
And Dora told Jack how lonely and
sad sho would be when bo was cono,aud
bow sho would pray for blm every night
and if it wts stormy lie awake and
tremble to think of him on tbo furious
ocean; and how faithful aud truo she
would slwnys ba to him, and how bo
would fiud a letter from her at every
port whera tbo vessel touched, and must
bo sura to send ono back to her.
Aud they both talked of tbe time when
Jack Bhould return and buy the little
etcua oottage at tho Headland; and ef
the quiet wedding they should have, and
Dora should be mistress of tho stone
cottage; and then when Jack came to bo
commander of a ship, instead of second
mate, Dora should accompany him on
bis voyages and bo tbe captain's lady,
I doubt if there was ever a happier
pair of lovers, albeit their long parting
was so near,
And suddenly Jack's eye caught tbe
rose colored gleam of a little shell among
tbo shining sands at bis feet, aud be
picked it up and gave it to Dora, sajiog.
"Keep it for my sake. Whcu I am
gone it shall mind you of your sailor."
"As If I needed anything to remind
me of him?" answered Dora with a little
pout.
"Nay,tben," said Jack, lightly,
have a whim. Let it be the bign of your
constancy. Keep it till you coase to
lovo me, and part with it only to the
man who wins your heart from me."
"You kuow that no inau over will
Jack, dear. What cava you such a
thought?"
"It just occurred to me to be jealous
of that handsome Tom Sclwiu aud tall
Dlrck Landfred nnd aud all the rest
of them who would give their eyes for
my bird. Dora dear, when I'm away
don't sail witb Tom nnd ride with Dirck,
us you'vo been used to," said selfish Jack,
half anxiously, half playfully.
"You great bear," scolded Dora, "to be
sojealoui,! If you were not going away
so soon I'd bo angry with you. But I'll
ive you tbe promise, Jack," she added
seeing bis sober look. "I'll do just as
you wisb, dear."
Aud so Jack sailed with the comfort,
ing couvictlou thot Dora was quite safe
from the attentions of bis numerous
rivals.
AlasI that wretched little shell! it and
Jack's jealousy were the cause of all tho
trouble that came to thosa two.
Over a ytar from that day Jaok met
Dlrck Landfred, 4,000 miles from Dora,
and was very glad tho handsome fellow,
who loved cs madly as Jack himself, was
no nearer ber.
Until this little coolners about Dora,
Jaok nnd Dlrck bad always been the best
of friends, and now Jack was not sorry
when Dlrck shipped for his return voy
age on tba same vessel with tilru. Dlrck
had sailed two weeks after Jack and for
tbe same port. As I said, Jack was not
ill pleased to have blm for a shipmate.
aud before the long voyage was balf
ended tbey were as good friends as ever.
Ona day when Dirck was rummaging
through bis chest for some trifle, Jack
came along and sat down for a chat. And
suddenly, while tbey talked, Diroic
opeued a little box of miscellaneous odds
aud ends, and Jack caught sight among
them of a littla pink, shining shell, for
be would have know it among ten thous
ands.
"Dirck, whera did you get that shell."
be demanded in n voice so sharp that
that Dlrck looked up, startled.
"Where did I gt it?" ho responded
jestingly:' t'My sweetheart gavo it to
us. "
Jack stared at blm ona minute witb
great kgonized eyes, too blind, in his
sudden anguish to see that be was jok
Ing. Then a strange, wbita pallor set
tied over bis bronzed face, and he walk
ed silently away. Rhe was false to him,
men; the bad given thoshrll to Dirck
tiudfrtd; and was not this the sign
that she had transferred br love, also,
to him.
Jaok did not go noar Dlrck again or
ho might have learned the truth, h)W
Dirck had ploked up tho shell on the
beach. And, pleased with its beauty, bad
carried it away with blm, never dream
lug that Dora had lost It there, and that
bo was hardly out of sight before she
came back to look for It,
If Dlrck, loyal heart, had known that,
ha would have walked a hundred miles
to restore her the gift of bis auooessful
rival.
But Jack did not ask, and Dlrck, of
fended at his sudden coldness, did not
tell him bow ho cama In possession of
of the shell.
Ho saw that Jack avoided him, and
witti no knowledge of the cause he was
too proud to seek bis company. So the
two never exohanged another word while
Jack remained on tbo ship, which was
not long, for at the next port Jack man-
ed to get his discharge frosi the cap
tain and ljft the vessel.
I'or a few years hs roamed abont with
out auy deflulte aim, and theu a pretty
Portuguese elrl fell In love with him,
and Jack marrkd her out of pity. U
made her a ialr husband, though he did
uot lovo her, but be never forgot Dors,
and he lived aud died without knowing
how ho had misjudged her I won't say
wronged her, for it's my belief sho was
as well off without him, and thnt ho
never waa worthy of her.
As for her, she waited and waited for
Jack, or news from him, and at last got
tho latter.
Somebody camo and told her of hi
marriage, aud gave a glowing description
ot bis beautiful Portuguese wife. At
first it almost broke ber heart, poor gitl.
But by-nnd-by resentment got tbe better
of her grief, and sho would not mourn
for such a recreant. And after a whllo
came Dirck wooing her again, when be
knew bo had the right.
Sho never could lave him again as she
bad loved Jack Wallace, and she knew
it; but she promised Dirck to mako him
a dutiful wife, and ha was contont; so
they were married.
Long years after Dora found tbe shell
in Duck's old box, aud then it all came
out; but Dora did not greatly regret it,
for Dirck was good and loving, and if
sho did not adore him as sha bad Jaok,
she know ho was the nobler man of the
two.

BILL IIYE'B TROUBLES,
No man knows how much the humnu
heart can endure and yet not burst until
ha has seen bis portrait published a few
times. Theu ba realizes tho wealth of
woo thnt one soul may wrtstlo with, and
yet Hot bccoina uublngtd and loosened
frcm its frail tenement of clay. Men go
on, year alter year, gaining tho tstecin
of their ftdlow-men by au upiight oourso,
only to lose It all by forgetting llitra
Nelvcs nt au unfortunate and weak mo
ment, aud permitting their portrait to
be published and their shame proclaimed
upon tbe housetops.
Soma years oro an alleged engraving
was made from ouo of my photographs,
bat tha truth was cent to mo in time, so
that 1 could by telegraph prevent its
publication.
Iu that portrait the wood cup.it.ver bad
takeu the liberty to tamper with tbo
face, and pat In little Improvements here
und there, according to his owu ideas of
beauty.
Among tha rest, I remember that ho
had unscrewed the lower jaw, and li t it
fall dowu about an inoh, so that the face
bid the expression of a rncaut lot iu the
early spring.
You pull any man's lower jw loose,
and lay Hon bis heaving breast, aud then
turn bis eyes up toward the star-studded
aby, nnd he seems to lack force of char
ncter, somehow.
So I wired the honsa to "kill" that
portrait nnd bury it with tha engraver
when tho iolets bloomod.
Then another engraver took his lifo
and his cold-chisel in hand, and blookid
out a eecond one. Ho thought I might
03 sensitive about my lata front hair, so
be put somoou in tbe engraying withont
additional charge. It looked like tha
bnnch of grass that springs up around an
old buffalo ball's skull.
I do not care to wear improvised hair
even iu an engraving. Iam not proud. If
natureduteuded that myScAndnavinnbair
should fall early tn the fight I can uot
help it. I oau not ask the engraver to
help me out.
Tbo portrait was averted by the use
of electricity, and tbe widow of tbe en
graver was asked to send ber bill iu to
ma for adjustment.
Later on another engraver took hold
of tho matter.
Uo went at it hopefully and even
hilariously, singing anon ctu he put hie
sheet-Iron shade over bis eyes and ud
justed bis boiler-iron corset that ho might
be ready iu case I should come iu on
him while hs was at work.

until time to go to press, handed it in
witb bis resignation, got a copy of the
paper so as to be snre that he bad dons
bis horrible work well, and then weut to
interior Africa to make a home.
For a long timo after tho paper was
published my wifo would not rccoguiza
me ou the street, and the children were
bathed in tears, I suffered a great deal
mentally, but resolved to livo It down.
and to aid me in this great undertaking
a friend offered to publish a fine, life
llko engraving that would be certified to
as accurate, and nil former ones de
nounced as baso infringements.
I agreed to it, and be went at it.
After a good deal of delay be sent mo
a proo: which bore a striking resem-
blauco to mo. I admitted to him that It
favored me, and we decided to let it go
forth with my name attached to it.

that the tmbecriber worj his, brains open
