But though, my dear, It's twenty year, I'll

Bui England wanted Jacky, for war was In

And arms more grim were pressed on him

So all through Spain, In rough campaign,

And fired his gun and made him run like

Wtisn the lads came round her, Katlo bade

And health and bliss to love like this that

BERTHS AND RODOLPHS.
Oue evening the young musician, Ro-
dolpbe Arnhrim, nnd Berthe, the pret
tiest of the girls of Mnyeucc, found
themselves alone together. llodolphe
nnd Bertho were engaged, nnd yet they
were going to be stpuruted tLo uextduy.
llodolphe was to depart for a distant
drovince.
Bt-rthe,"said Rodolphe, "let us play
o ice Bg.iiu together the air you like to
much. When we are srpiirnted ut the
close of the day, tho hour ol crave
thoughts, we will play our parts, und
that will bring us nearer to each other."
They were faithful to their proiuis. .
Eirery evening, at ttio hour wheu they
hud Btoii each oilier for the lust time,
Berthe seated herself at her b.irp, llo
dolphe took his flute, und they pUycd
their parts.
One eveuing Berthe wns with hir
father beneath the nrbor of their Hill
girderi. It wns the hour sacred to souv-
e lira; Berthe wns playing her fuvonte
lr upon tho barn, but suddenly sh
-,nnn,i n.
All was sllenc; even the wind had
ceased to ngilnte the foilage, Berthe re
commenced the nlr nnd again she heard
Rodolphe's flute nccouipanyiug her.
It was Rodolphe who had returned,
Two years afterward Rodolphe and
Berthe nossetsed n churmlnu littl
d uiRhter, the cherihed frnlU of a union
that Derthe's father bad blessed before
drawing bis final breath.
Then Ibe ititant died, nnd R?rlho ex
pired of grief n few months afterward.
When she felt her end approaching she
said to Rodolphe;
"In vain have I sought lo prolong try
existence by my prayers; I must rejoin
our child; I must abnudon you nnd wait
for you in a better life. If the dead have
power to reappear upon the earth you
will see me again; my shade- will wander
about yon; for my beawn Is the place
where my Rodolphe Is. When Ihe day
shall arrlvo in which wo cm be reunited
I will cotuo to seek Vol!, and our two
souls, melted together, Bhall rise on

where they will not have n sinclo lie
Every ysnr, on my birthday, happy or
unhappy, beloved or ab.indoued, sad or
gay, at the hour of sunset, play Ihe si
that has so long charmed for as the grief
of absence.
Then she kissed him and died.
llodolphe lost his mind. They made
him travel for some time. On his return
bis head was more calm, but a sober
mslaneholy look possession of mm and

flute the air they had so olteu played to

out stilT pn the fluor. When he recover
ed consciousness be had again lost hts
miud; it was once more necessary for
him to travel. At the expiration of n
yar he relumed to bis house; his bruin
appeared to be re-established, only he
was sad and silent.
Again Bertbe's birthday arrived; he
filled the chamber with fresh flowers,aud
toward evening he shut himself tip.
dressed as on his wedding day; then he
played upon bis flute still the same air.
The follouing diy they again found
him extended on the floor.
Now this Is what had happened to
him:
Oa the first anniversary, as seon as he
had begun to play, the strings of tl e
harp bad vibrated and of themselves had
accompanied the flute.
When be had paused the sounds of the
hup bud paused also.
On the second anniversary, thinking
he had been the victim of an illusion, be
recotu nenced aud Ibe barp playtd its
ptrt. He placed his band upen the
strings aud bis bands felt the last vibra
tlou of those strings.
On b,-.th occasions he bad fallen,
strleken with terror, and bad passed the
night in a deep swoon. Hat be at last
became habituated to this violsnt emo-
Hon, and found u It only n sort of poig
nant ple.isu.ro.
All his evening and tho grenter por
tion of Ills ulgbls were passed thus. His
cheeks fjfew hollow; his eyes nlone
Recmtd living In tho depths of their or
bits nnd shone wllli rt supernatural bril
liancy, lie no longer bad more lifo than
sufficed to feel and Buffer.
A Irleud becatne nlaruied nnd sought
to discover what Itodolpho did iu that
chamber.
It was the third anniversary of Berthe's
death. Itodolpho again filled the cham
ber with flowers; he h'imself was furn
ished with n bouquet. Ho had strewn
the bed of the dead woman with roses
picked to pieces.
Then, at sunsot, he took his seat and
played Bertbe's air.
The friend had concealed himself be
hind n curtain! he trembled on hearing
tho sounds of the burp ininglothemselvia
with those of the flute, llodolphe sank
upon his kuecs aud prayed.
Then the harp played on nlone; tho
friend siw the strings vibrate, though
no band touched them. It played n
cehstinl tuelody that no one had ever
beard before, and that no one will ever
hear again. Then it resumed Bertbe's
air. When it was finished all the strings
of the harp suddenly broke and llo
dolphe fell to the floor.
The hidden spectator remained for
some timo us motionless as his friend;
then, when he went to raiso him, Ki-
djlphe was dead.

her. But, niter all. who knows what

the steps to her desk to lock up Ihe
photograph packet iu the most secluded
drawer. "It is ridiculous aud wrong iu
me to indulge these vain regrets and
fancies. Why cannot I bury them, n:
n sensible woman ought to bury them?
I am not a girl. I nm not even a young
woman now. Ought I not once for all
to put these bygones Irom me, and never

this cannot be!"
Miss Martingala is half-way into a
swoou from flight.
"From him? No, of course not. How
ridiculous!''
