0AKRY THIS KIBS TO MOTHER.
Dt THSO. D. O. UILLKE.
Carry this kiss to tnother,
A dying soldier said)
White on the Held uf battle
He lay beside the dead;
And tell her I am thinning
Of home and friends afar,
Ere I am called to journey
Above tho shining star.
Carry this klsi to mother,
And tell her not to weep .
When I am laid forever
With comrades braye to slecpl
This night will soon be over,
And then life's dsy will come,
When I can meet my mother
Within tho angel's homo.
Cirry this kiss to mother
Lust token of my love
And tell her in life's morning
I'll wait for her abovel
My feet will tread the yalley,
Where flowers Immortal grow,
Whero souls will live forever,
And sunbeams brightly glow.
Carry this kiss to mother,
So sho may feel andl&uow
JIow yery much I lovo her
When I am railed to go;
And tell he not to sorrow,
But dry each falling tear,
While waiting for the dawning
Of life's bright morn so clear.
Carry this kiss to mother,
When I am laid to rest;
And toll her 1 shall never
Lean on her loymg breastl
Our home in dear New England
Will charm my eyes no more,
lint I ahull be an happy
Uiou tho other shore.
Carry this kiss to mother
The last one I shall send;
Now Heaven Is drawing nearer,
My eHrlli'life coon will end!
But o'er the silent river
The home of love I see,
Where 1 ahull dwell forever
Beside the crystal sea.
Happy the Ending.
It moved a good many people to won.
der wbeu Alice Oakes una engaged to
Theodoro Max,
An for Paul Norman, lie was thunder
struck, lie sought the pre.ence of Miss
Oaken, and with slcru face and kuitted
asked u question
Alice, have you been trifling with me
all this whilt?"
At tint she turned pale and sat back
into her chair nnd looked at him with
terror-stricken eyes,
"Paul Norman, did you renlly love
rut?" she abked.
"I loved you. I thought yon loved
me. I was waiting for proscenly, for
torlune. Wbeu- it camo I would bt-ye
i-pokeu," be said. "Did you know
that?"
No I did not know it," she said iu n
despairiug tone. "I thought you were
merely flirting. I thought if you meant
seriously you would tell me so."
Tbfu Paul Norman went down upon
his kuees, aud caught her baud nud
pressed it to his lips. He plmded:
You Iotu me as I love you. Yoa must
be iniue."
AH she answered was: "It is too late;
my word is given."
Aud he arose and loft ber.
She had accepted Theodore ilx in
fit of pique She bad thongbt herself
lighted by Norman. Norman would
not peik while the advantage of wealth
was no greater on bis side. She quite
understood now.
The wedding day drew near. Her
nressiB were being made, her house new
ly luruUhed. Oue day she drove to n
great cbiua manufactory to muke pur
chajea, nnd the smiling mauoger inquir
ed if she would like to see the people nt
work, and wlieu sbo asseutrd he accom
panied her himself over the great build
ing.
In au inner room the decorators work
cd; among those wire women. One
delicate aud very pretty girl was deftly
scatteriug over a pula blue dish a wreath
of paleal pink sweet peas.
Th o occupation seemed a charming
one. 11 struck lue fancy ol tue young
lady. The girl looked up and smiled.
"I wonder if you could teacb me to do
that?" bhe asked.
Ab, yes, madame," replied the girl
villi a foreign accent. "If madame
could take lessons in the evening I should
be delighted to earu a little mure."
'Come to me to-night," said Alice,
"and we will talk it over."
Aud at night, the girl came, an inno
cent, simple little creature, who needed
little urgiug to talk of herself.
She was from Dresden; she bad learn.
ed to paint cbiua there mademoiselle
had beard of the great china works there
all the world had.
bbe longed to return, out she bad a
pnrpoBe in coming to America and it
was not accomplished. No, mademnii
elle was mistaken it was not to make
her fortune. She would tell mademois
elle, wbo looked ao kind. It was to look
for ber lover. Ob. be adored ber and
she adored him. They were both in the
cbiua works, but ber grandfather would
have her marry her cousin, and be turn
ed Tbeo from the door ye., and with
auger and threats, if he sbonld come
again.
They met once, and yownl eternal con-
stapcy; then he came to America.
He thought she was married, but
Providence bad arranged otherwise; her
cnasin was dead and ber grandfather al
so. So she had come to find Tueo. Did
mademoise'le ever hear his nume? That
would not be likely, but she asked every.
one "Theodore Max, from Dresden.
Thiodura Max, from Drdn? Miss
Oakes started violently.
"Tell me bow he looks,' she said; "in
the least like this? ' and she drew from
ber work-basketa photograph; "it might
bi bis own portrait."
"It isl" cried tho girl. "Oh, do yoa
know Mm?"
"I think I do," said Alice. "1 will
send for him. What bU I say?" .
Only say that Sophy Brett noyer
married her cousin Andre, aud Is here,'
said the girl.
Bat MIbs Oakes only telegraphed to
Theodore Max: "Come i t once.''
"Theodore," she sild to him, before
she led him into Sophy's presence; "yoa
loved Sophy Brett once:"
He answered frankly:
"Fondly. But I could not marry her,
so I came away."
"She Is frco,'- said Atleo.
"What cn you know of Sophy?" asked
ber lover.
Alice drew her engagement ring from
her finger aud gave it to bim.
Give this to Sophy," she said. "I
will give her a dowry. I see you loye
hor, 1 know she loves you, nnd I found
out l.mg ago that I never loved you at
all. Go to my boudior you will fluu bor
there."
Again tbo world wondered. When
wedding veils are bought and wedding
breakfasts ordered people expect a wed
ding ceremony.
They were not disappointed, but the
brido was not Alice. The feast wns at
her home. She graced the ceremony
with her presence. She was as gay as
the bridegroom, aud as lovely as the
bride, and far more elegant. And Bhe
kissed little Sophy with unaffected ten
derness, und shook hands heartily with
Theodore Max as the young couple bade
her adieu and went oil upon their wed
ding tour.
Hut while the guests ftill lingered
Alice Oakes stole awsy into the conser
vatory, where a tiny fountain toned it
waters into a marble basiu, aud there.
as though for her, as indeed he was,
stood Paul Norman. His dark face
glowed with joy.
"Alice," he whispered, "have you
come to me at last?'
Her only auswer was to drop her head
upon his bosom.
And you may be sure there was an
other wed Hug soou, and that this time
Alice was thu bride.
MADELAINE.
Madclalue Rogers was just 1C, a beau
tiful, sunny creature. Pretty, too, aud
as good as she wits pretty; yet withal as
full of fun as a "nut is full of meut."
Wiseacres were wont to shuke their
heads at her mrny escapades. Mothers
with grown daughters did uot wish them
them to be too intimate with her, and
would have liked to "cut" her; but as
this was impossible they lectured their
progeny continually,
She was the grandchild of Mr. Albion
Rogers, a gentleman geuial and courtly,
bnt with not too mil oh of this world's)
goods. Madelaiue never felt comfortable
under tho eye of those matrons wbo are
nl nays ready and williug to give advice
without being asked fur it.
So she generally could be found down
in the orchard reading, or paddling with
bare feet iu the brook.
Thus we find her oue warm day. She
bad improvised a Inue for home verses
iu the book lying in ber lap, and wea
leaning baok against the tree, siuging in
a sweet, clear voice;
Madame, farewell, I'll none of your wealth;
Touth Is mine, and freedom, and health;
I'll wander o'er mountain and dalo
Chirp In your cage with Its glided doorj
Maid once mimed comes forth never more
You aro welcome to Jailer und Jail!
"That's just the way I feel, bnt people
never let a body alone. Now, if I ooul 1
only go off ns tbeso girls did and be
alone for a while I think I stool I feel
just about right. I'm a born bobemi
rune, I do brlieve. I don't seem lo care
what fnlk-i think about me. If I could
imly gel . Ob, uy! what ws thai!
I'm sure I heard a branch break; gracious
mel and my feet bare, tco. I declare it's
a man. aud a stranger, too. Ob, dear!
I'm always in trouble. What shall I
do?"
''Beg a thousand pardons, miss; my
lutruslou was absolutely unavoidable, I
assure you. I wag uot aware of your
presence uutil too late to turn buck. I
am Leslie Lorraine, nt your service.
Here is my card. Pray excuse me.
Good day," and be was gone.
Poor little Madelaiue stood there.Iook-
og after bun, utterly discomfited, her
face flushed and tears of mortification in
her eyes.
She knew tbat he was Mrs. Dale'i
brother, wbo had been expected for a
week past; and that he should catch htr
In each a plight!
What would bis haughty slater say if
he knew? Would she invite ber to the
bill she was to give in honor of bii re'
turn? one knew Mrs. Dale was very
proud of ber family and ber position
She was the leader of Dalevillu's best
society, and lived at the Dalevllle man
sion.
Tbat evening her grandfather received
invitations for tbe ball, and Madelaiue
almost decided not to go, but her parent
instated. Lealie Lorraine's father and
be bad been friends In their youth, and
he wanted to know his old frieud's boy.
Mrs. Dale took ber brother to call on
teveial of tbe families; but on tbe occas
ion of ber visit to tbe Rogers she was
alone, for which Madeialne was very
thankful.
Toe evening the ball was given Made'
Iaine and her grandfather did not arriye
uutil late. Tbe rooms were thronged
with the elite of Dalevllle society. Les
lie was at tbe door helping bis slater to
reoelve their Ruesls wbeu they were au
nuuuced. Wbeu his eyes fell upon
Madtlaina be started forward, and, as
Bonn as bis sister bad introduced them,
put ber arm through Ms and led ber to
a seat.
Everjbody seemed surprised, bnt the
most surprised person was Cecily Dale,
Madolalm bluibed rosy red nt this
mark of recognition. She knew the eye
of all Dalevllle were on ber.
They talked nnd dauced together al
most t.11 the evening, even to tho exclus
ion of some of Mrs. Dale's most intimate,
friends. He told be thought of her al
most constantly since he first saw her,
bat bad begun to think eho was a wlll-o'
the-wi'p until ho saw her tbls ovenlop.
When tbey Were going borne he attended
tbem to their carriage. Madelaiue had
enjoyed herself end was in a very happy
frame of mind.
After the guests had departed, and
Mrs. Dale wag alone with her brother,
she remarked:
"Leslie, I did not know yoa had seen
Miss Itogeis before this evening. May
I ask whero it was ynu met!"
"Certainly, sis. 'I met ber in nn
orchard not far from here on the day of
my arrival."
"Well, 1 wish ynu had not madoyonr
self quite bo conepicunus this eyeulug
with her. She is n perfect hoyden."
"My dear sister, I c.iunot see In what
I made myself conspicuous, I presume
if I had chesen Mim Etdridge or any
other young lady it would have been all
proper."
"I tell you, Leslie, Bhe is a child, and
and I hnpe you have said nothing to
her that will lead htr to think you are
serious."
"My dear Cecily, do not make yourself
nervous over iue. I am a man, aud of
age. Good nigbt."
Mr. Rogers bad invited him over to
dine next day, aud be bad accepted, So
that afternoon he told his sister not to
wait diuner for him, as he had au invi
tation lo dine out.
"Aro you going to Rose cottage?"
"Yes, Inm. Why?"
"I do wish ynu would think of what
I said last night. Leslie."
"Cecily, I do not like to be rude, bnt
there are some things a man would rath
er adjust for himself."
So bo visited Rose cottage, and it was
only the firet of many visits. He knew
tbls little hoydeu watched for his visitp.
He saw the bright color come and go in
the peachy cheeks; tnil, although bis
sister never censed to expostulate, be
turned n deaf ear and gave his heart inls
the keeping of this child-womnn, who
had grown wonderfully quiet nnd digni
fied under the overpowering influence of
a deep, true, nud lasting lov6.
Ouoe again be finds ber in her acens
tomed seat at the brook and there tells
ber of his passionate love for ber.
"My darliog, say yon will be my little
wife. I know you lovo me, for yonr
eyes told me tbe secret long ago. Will
you make mo tbo happiest of men, my
dear one?''
And her answer was given him not
only with eyes b it with lips nlio.
Madeialne Rogers is now Madeleine
Lorraine, and a better wife or a more
diguifled woman does not live.
M ATHENS LUCK.
Look, girls! What
did I tell you?
There here comes!"
"How haudsoroe be is!"
"And just see Mattle she's all smiles.
Ob, my heart it is a-burstiu' whene'er I
gaze upon him!' That's her song now,
isn't ill"
The clnster of smart-looking young
watter-airls giggled and smiled as tbe
youthful gallant passed by,but be neitb
er saw nor beard them; bis eyes were
fixed on Mnttip, aud be went dirtctly to
ber counter, seating himself on the stool
before her with an easy grace and a
totally unembarrassed air.
It wsk noon and the huge coffee-house,
as bright as n new piu and clean as wax.
was beginning to fill up with yonths aud
men of all descrlptions.lrom tbe dapper,
gayly-dressed clerk, full of appreciation
lor the beauties of tbe fair, to tho toil-
stained laborer, whose thoughts wer
riveted selely upon his beef stew and
section of pie.
Mattie's customer bod only been a
patron of the coffee-house a single week.
The girl had been tbe first to wit on
him, and, attracted by her comeliness,
attention, and maidenly bearing, be bad
contlnned to patronize her counter.
Tbeir acquaintance in this brief spare
had ripened into a kind of Irieudahip
that was pleasing to both of them. Tbey
knew very little of each other as yet, but
what tbey knew seemed eminently satis
factory. Tbey bad ohatted a little about
the theater, and tbe girl had told bim
that tbe height of ber ambition was to see
a cerluiu popular play.
That morning as he took bta seat in
front of her counter be was a trifle ner
vous. Mattle uoliced thin, but nttribut-
it lo some pretty aunoyance such as
young men continuity encounter. She
niiled pleasantly and immediately wait
ed on bim with an alacrity tbat charmed
aud at the same time reassnrred him.
They chatted for for a short space and
finally Augustus took a small scanted
envelope from his pocket and placed il
upon tbe counter. Tbe girl glanced at
It and saw tbat it bore the inscription
"For Miss Mattie, with tbe compliments
of Augustus nare." She took it up and
opened it and a flood of scarlet shot into
her cheeks as she saw that it contained
two matinee tickets for the play the much
desired to see,
"Oh. Mr. Hare." ahe whispered, "I
thank you, but I had rather not!"
"Where's the barm?" returned he.
"You can get off before two o'clock, and
take one ot tha girls along for an esoort."
And Augustas took npv bis cheoks and
left Mattie was a good girl aud a
member of a worthy family. First, bow
ever.she consulted her intimatu friend and
fellow-worker, M-try Dreper, a thought
less, dusb-ahcad, but well-iutentioued
girl.
"What wonld you do?" the asked after
explaiulug the circumstances to to.
"I would go!" answered Mary, em.
pbaticallr. -It Uu't often a girl who
has to slave for her living geU aacli a
VUBUCgl
So Mattle invited Mary to accompany
her, aud they went. Tne theatre was
comfortably filled but not crowded. Tbe
daubing comedy rattled along and was
acted detlclously. lint, notwithstanding
the pleasure tbe performance gave ber
Mattle was dissatisfied JrilU herself. She
felt that she bar! not done right in ac
cepting the tickets from n young mnu of
whom sho really knew nothing except
that be appeared to bo a gentleman.
Was bis intention iu giving ber the
tickets merely to gratify her, or had he
ulterior designs that she was then un
able to fathom?
The mora she thought of tbe matter
the worse it looked, and n great lamp
arose iu her throat as she reflected how
indiscreet she bad been, nnd bow htr
ill-advised action might bo distorted
to her disadvantage. Her reflections
became unbearable, and in the midst of
the performance she suddenly . pnt ber
baud to her heart, utUred a low cry.aud
tainted.
As she sat back in her seat, limp, un
conscious, nnd as pale as death, n young
mau darted from an obscure coruer of
the orchestra circle aud rushed to ber
side. He hastily took her in bis arms,
nnd, bidding tbe amazed aud terrified
Miss Draper follow bim, bora hor out
iuto tho lobby. There was n slight
commotion in the audieuce.but it speed
ily subsided, and the play was uot Inter
rupted. Iu the lobby a dash of cold water nnd
tho application of smelling-salts to her
nostrils speedily restored the ailing girl
to consciousness. She opened her eyes,
aud the first thing she biw was tho cause
of all tbe mischief, Augustus Hare him
self, bending over her.
"Ob, Mr. Hare," she said faintly,
"how wrongly I have noted."
But Augustus wonld not bear a word.
He insisted npon silence.aud dispatched
nn usher for n carriage. Assisted by
Miss Draper.ho led Mattie to the vehicle,
nnd. refusing to leave her until she was
safely at home, got iu with the two girls,
directing tho ccochnian to drive to tbo
address that he obtained from Mary.
The waiter-girl's mother was a trim
and scrupulously cent little body, nnd
tbe moment Augustus put eyes on her
bo liked her. When ber daughter ar
rived iu the carriago with a strange gen
tleman the wus at first dismayed and
then terrified. What did it all mean?
But the sight of Mary Draper calmed
her. Mattie was yet pa!a and distressed.
She threw herself wildly upon ber moth
er's neck and cried out:
Ob, mother, I have done wrongl I
have douo wrong! '
The elder lady gazed with horror and
suspicion at Augustus, but he stood bis
ground like a man, and in a few consld
eratn words explained the entire affair,
from the acceptauco of the matinee tick'
ets to the the catastrope at tho theatre,
concluding by saying, in it tone of great
feeling:
' If there is any harm iu the matter it
belongs to mo alone, Mies Mattie is en
tirely innocent, Perhaps I tempted ber.
but my intentions were of tho purest,
can assuro you."
Mattie gazed at him with gratitud
beaming in ber eyes, and her little bcart
went out to bim, with all its maidenly
affection, ns it bad never done to any
young man before. Tears of contrition
were rolling down ber pallid cheeks, but
Augustus thought they only made her
look more beautiful and modest. He
was enraptured with tbe little waiter
girl, aud there was a tumultous flutter
log in his mauly bosom an unmistak
able indication that Cupid had fired an
arrow at him and bad not missed bis
mark.
"Well, blesa my soul!" thought tbo
dashing Miss Draper, "this is certainly
the queerest flirtation I ever heard of iu
all my born da; si"
Tbeir courtship was a brief one, and
when tho May hyacinths were filling the
nir with their balmy perfume, and the
gorgeons tulips wero dazzling all eye.
with their imperial beauty, Matlio nnd
Augustus were quietly married. Matti
had long sinceabaudoued the cofle-bouse
and its iutoxlcatiug atmosphere of giddv
flirtation, aud since ber disappearance
Augustus bad not been seen there. Tbe
waiter-girls talked the matter over among
themselves, giggling aud smirking ns
usual, but when they heard that Mnttie
had married a rich, youthful, aud band
some husband, wbo was passionately do
voted to her, aud that tbat husband was
her admirer of ber former waiter days,
tbey spoke enthusiastically of hor luck,
and thero was not oue of them wbo did

His Last Rattlesnake.
An affecting iueideut happened in tbe
island of Martinique In tho summer of
18. A fine, alhletio negro named Gola,
bilouging to a wealthy planter, was des
perately enamored of a pretty mulatto
lass, called Juanita, living on the next
plantation.
But Juanita was o coquette, and cruel
as coquettes generally are. Having a
slight tinge of white blood in ber she
looked down from an exalted height on
poor Gola, wbo was blacker than tbe ink
Lam writing with. Still Gula did not
despair, but pressed bis suit on every
opportunity.
At last Juanita, finding ber lover so
pertinacious that he must either be final
ly rejected or accepted, told bim one
day that she had a passion for rattle
snakes' tails; tbat she valued tbem in
proportion to their leugth; but tbat as
yet she had nerer been able to get a tall
which oonsisted of twelvo rlugs.
Now, if he brought her n tall with
twelve riugs she would be bis.
Gala's heart sauk, but still be determ
Ined to undertake this dangerous task
What was tbera he would not peril to
gain Juanita? Day after day, Gola, with
a buruiug braud of plue-wood in one
hind and a short saber In the other,
traversed the forests, listening for the
ominious rattling of the snakes.
In point of numbers bis success was
prodigious, for there is no better method
for killing snakes than the oto Gola
adopted thrusting tbe burning torch
in his face; and, ai be detcses fire, he Is
easily decapitated in tbe moment of his
confusion.
Nevertheless, Gola conld not dud a
single tall with twelve rltiRs on it no
found socio with eight or ntno, nnd one
which bad eleven; but when he laid bis
last before Juanita she was still inexor
able, and declared tbat even eleven and
a half would not content her.
At last, one day, when alnicst des
pairing of success, Gola was crossing an
open space, his ear was caught by n par
ticularly loud and sonorous rattle.
He stopped and perceived nn enorm
ous rattlesnake gliding toward him. Its
eyes wero glowing with au inteuse fire;
its bifurcated tongue was Agitated with
an Inconceivable rapidity of motion.
Gola felt tbat the hour bad come when
he should either win Juanita or perish.
The size and appearance of the suaks
couviuced him that it bad twelve or
more rings in its tall, and ho awaited its
approach with a beating heart.
The Bnoke came gliding on, ncd when
within about tbrea feet coiled himself
for a spring. Gola now seized the op
portunity, and, dashing hij torch in its
faco severed the head from the body with
oue blow.
It was with a throb of delight thai he
discovered on stooping dowu to examine
his prize thirteen rings in the snake's
tail. While he was separating thtm
from the carcass he felt a alight pricking
sensation in his heel. Turninc cround
quickly be discovered to bis horror, that
he bad placed ono of his bare feet on tbe
snake's head. In which tbe muscular so-
tion still continued, and that, all lifeless
as it was, It had bitten him.
Gola now knew that he wns n dead
man, and his sole object was to seo
Juanita before bo expired. Catching up
his prize, which ho bad purchased with
his life, he rushed across the fields with
tbe sueeil of despair.
Every moment ho felt the poison work
ing more fatally lu bis veins, uutil at
list swollen, brtatbless, speechless, and
frotbiug at the lips, he rushed into
Juauiltt's presence. He could nn longer
articulate, bnt holding out to ber tbe
thirteen rallies iu his swollen bands and
fixing ou ber onn last look of devotion,
bo rolled on the floor nt her feet, and af
ter a few gasps breathed hU last.
