On woodlands ruddy with autumn The timber sunshine lies) I look mi tlio beauty round nie, And tears come Inlo my eyes. For the wind that sweeps the meadows Blows out of the far Southwest, Where our gallant men arc fighting, And the gallant dead arc at rest. The golden-rod Is leaning, And the purple aster waves Inn lircec from the lauds uf battles, A breath from the laud of grilles. Full fast the leaves arc dumping Before that waudcihig breath; As fast, on the field of battle, Our brctliciu fall In death. Beautiful oer my pathway The forest spoils are shed: They are spotting tlio grassy hillocks Willi purple ami gold and red. Beautiful Is tlio death-sleep Of those who brawly light In their country's holy ipiarrel, And perish for the light, Hut who shall comfort the llilng, The light of whosu homes Is gone: The bride that, caily widowed, I.iics brokcu-hcaitcd on; Tlie matron w hose sons are lying In gravis on n distant shcre; The maiden, whose promised husband Comes back fiom the war no more? I look on the peaceful dwellings Whose windows glimmer In siht, With croft and garden mid orchard That bask in Ihe mellow light; And I know Hint, when ourcouticrs With news of victory come, They w 111 bt lug n bitter message Of hopeless grief to some. Again I turn to tl-.e woodlands, And 1 shudder as I see The mock-grape's blood-icd banner Hung out oil the cedar tlue. Ami I think ot days of slaughter, And the ulgiit-sky red with ll.im.es, On tiic Chattahoochee's meadows. And the w asted h.iuks of ttio James. O for the fresh spi Ing-scason, When tlie spines are In their prime, At.il lnraway In the furiuro Is thu frosty uutiimu-tlmc! O for that belter season, When the pride of the too shall yield, And the hosts of Ood and Freedom March back from Ihe well-won field; And the matron shall clasp her llrst-born Willi tears of Joy ami pride; And the scarred ami war-worn iover Shall claim Ids promised bride I Tlie lcaies are swept Iror.i the branches; But tlie lliing buds are llii io, With folded flower and foliage, To spiout In a kinder air. A Broken Life. MY M. KlIXUN 110I.A1IAX. In their own misery, men are moiu apt to bu sellish and exacting than wo men, even when through some rash, mad act of tlieii- own, that misery is caused. So it Is that ltobcrt Alt wood sits In tlie parlor of his own home, the twilight of early spring falling around 1 1 lit in lender gloom, wlille the glow from tlie maible llrepl.ico dickers and fulls on the luxuries that wealth alone can procure, mid dies around the slim form of his wife seated before the grand piano dreamily touching the sensitive keys. His wilel Vet he sits, as lie lias been sitting for the last hour, starim; Into the glowing coals and picturing a face not .hat of Ids young wHe, but which is ever with liltu, waking or sleeping, neverthe less the face of 1. a lira Ilcthbuni. A face so peerless In its beauty that men have committed ci lines fur less: so flawless in Its brilliant contour as to dazzle his senses and blind him to the sweet purity and beauty of the ivoman whom, in a moment of desperation, he had made his wife. And now, although bitterly repenliug the folly of it, he was still compelled by the law of God and man to submit to know that tho years would slip on and drag through that life Itself would end, yet Cara would stand between him and the woman hu would ever love. In the very thought was madness, and sudden- ly he turns from the thought of such expiation with: "For Heaven's sake, Cara, aro yon going to practice all night? I wish you would manage to do your practicing Its! ,,, .,,, ,,rv. ,. ,!,' shies, It Is time to dress for the ilor- u bile 1 am away; it is so irritating. He- daunt affair." Huddenly the dreamy sadness of the vvaltz, so like the vague, unutterable. sadness of Cara Altwood's life, ceases with a crash; aud even as It ceases, Robert Allwood rises, and, ashamed perhaps of his senseless temper, crosses to the gas, lights It, and turns lu sud. j - ... i,i ... , , den surprise as a sob breaks on the si- lence of tho room, j "For llc¥'s sake, Cara, what Is w as . fTl 5 Ok INDEPENDENT LEHIGHTON, CARBON COUNTY, It?" lie cries, staring helplessly at the bowed head and tear-drenched face that the gaslight reveals. "You nre con stantly In tears tears for which you give no earthly reasont Is thero any thing you want?" She looks tip, and for the first time In his life Robert Altwood detucts a gleam ing ray of proud, resentful (ire In lirr brown eyes, a world of haughty pride In the Voice which nnswers: Yes, Kohcrt Altwood, I do want many things tilings wiiicli you have put It beyond my power possess. Can you give me bark the dreams which you have wrecked, the life you have blighted, and the hopes you have made Illusions? What have I ever dono that you should spoil my life, put It beyond my power to ever find happiness? Ah, Heaven, that I had never seen you I" And staring at her In blank misery he echoed the wish with: Twas a mad mistake, for which all my lite 1 must atone. Pray let us have no scenes. Iicniembcr not jou nlone aro miserable. Nothing can avail us now." That was all. In his cold cruelty he walked from the room, and nil night long In the brilliant crowded rooms, while she sat dumbly staring, he hung on the very words of tlio capricious beauty Miss Hcthburn forgetting even the obstacles w hlch separated them In his-wild Infatuation, and uttering woids that afterward lie would have given his life to recall; words, tlio very memory of which evcrafterward brought a flush of shame to his cheek. ''if the old times were back, Laura, he whispered, drawing her toward lilm on the marble balcony In .all tlio bril liant beauty which blinded his honor. "If I were free again, darling, would It be otherwise? 'Tis you who should have been my wife not she. If I would if I could be free again, Laura " Moved, perhaps, by the passion trembling In his voice; perhaps by a triumph of her own power, and tho ut ter impossibility of the thing he sti; gested, the proud beauty bent her proud head, and touched his hand lightly with her perfect Hps, "If vou were free If this wretched mistake had not parted us, Ilcbcrt, would have been your wife." More followed In low, thrilling tones, but neither saw the slim, dark figure crouching there against the shadowy, Ivy-grow n pillar, w ith the look of death less pain on her white face. A few days later, strangely calm and self-possessed, Cara Altwood entered the library where her husband sat, with a roll ofpapeis In her slip hand. She laid them on tlm table before him, saying simply: "Head and sign them, It Is best for us both." He perued them every wotd eery line, yet scarcely realized that they were the papers which legally set him tree from the woman he had so rashlv mail led. "You understand!'' she asked at last "It Is a divorce a separation. Money can procure anj tiling but happiness You, at least, am free. Hu looked up Into her faeo so coldly white and asked hoarslev : "Is it your wish, Cara? I do not wish to make you miserable, (lod knows." She turned to the open window with a slow smile of contempt. "Yuur consideration comes too late,' she said; "since wo have been married it seems to have been vour ambition to make me as miserable us you possibly could. You seemed to havo forgotten that I, too. was human capable of joy or pain. Now vou have only to forge that I ever came into your life forge that you ever spoiled my life and be happy with the old love, who would nivrry you If yon were free." And well-knowing, with a sense self-shame and abasement, that she ha been a witness to that scenn on the bal cony, Robert Altwood took Ills freedom, vaguely conscious that It scarcely brought the happiness hp had expected. Cara had absolutely refused any al lowance, any settlement from hlui.witli: "When 1 met you I had only my honor and a loving heart. The heait you hale broken; tho honor, eyen asso ciation with your 'set' has not taken from me! I can go gladly back to the old life of work, praying God to lei me forget." And the months rolled on. Free and unfettered in the eyes of the world, Rob ert Altwood's Infatuation for the lovely belle was ended with: "Hut nonsense, ltobcrt. Of course I could not marry you a divorced man. Who would ever have thought . Hut there! Here Is my partner for the next waltz. Take ury advice find yourllttle wife and make It up. You should never have let her go." In his splendid, lonely home, ltobcrt ' Altwood at last lealized his own folly. What a worthless Idol his had been after all; and what a proud, sweet na ture he had cast from him for the glit tering Illusion 1' If only he could find her If only ho could go down on his knees, and beg her to forgive and trust him again, Le i would have done so, without daring to , hope that she would come back to let ' him atone through all thejearsof his life. Sho had disappeared as completely from his life as If she had never been, and In the rooms where she had so often irritated him by her very presence, Robert Altwood now sat and yearned for i,cr ia tho lonllncss of his heart. Without, the wind shrieked and i whistled In a mournful tone the re- nulem to everv hope lie had ever pos- sessed of happiness and brooding be fore the tire he did not even hear tin light fall of footsteps until u voice strangely familiar biokejn ou.hls bitter reflections: "I have brought-yeu back your child, , . . .. , i . u .. because-unless I did he must have starved, aud " His child 1 What fancy dream was Live and Let Live."

And Cara's voice Cora's self seen no cause to fear or complain, If standing bcrore him thin, pale and only niv jealous heart would hush its white with a tiny bundle wrapped In her 1 mad throbbing suspicion, arms. He could neither speak nor stir. I Mrs. La Hue Is an accomplished musl "You will keep him," Cara continued clan, playing on the piano, harp, violin in a weak, pitiful voice, holding out her wasted arms toward him. "The mistake was not his fault, you know. I could not support us both, and I was fratd that 1 should die and leave him to the cold mercy of strangers. Tell your wife how It Is, and " "I have no wife but you, Cara," he answered tenderly, taking wife and child in his strong arms. "I have even tried to pray that you might return, well know ing I did not deserve your forgive ness. Now you have come, I will never let you go again 1 Can you let me atone, darling can you trust me once, again, and let the 'dead past bury Its dead?' " I can trust you, I think," she whispered through happy tears, "and I know that I cannot live without iuy boy and you." And remembering all the past, in which he alone was guilty, Robert Alt wood thanked God for the happiness which had reached him in spile of all lis folly. BEYOND THE SEA. Betw een me and my darlings Are miles and utiles of spaces But always in the twilight, I sec each little face: I sec their hands close folded. In prayer, at mother's knee, And whisper In the breezes, "Go kiss them all for me." And then I sit and listen, And often think I hear Their sleepy llttlo voices Mako music In my car. I fancy that I hear them Breathe loving thoughts for me, In prayers that you have taught them To utter at your knee. And then my heart grows tender With longing for lis own For Ihe children and their mother, Beside Ihe old hearthstone, "(lod bless and kecu them for me," ' I whisper, prayei fully, "And take mo to my dear ones, Who wait beyond the sea." A BITTER ORDEAL BY M. E. HOI.AltAN. I am very proud and happy as I sweep down the long, cool alslo of the cliurrii where I have been baptized where some day I shall enter, and leave, never to "walk alone" again the wife of Ucnzll Harvey, whose betrothed wife already am. I steal a side glanco at his face so full of powrr,culture and grand strength. I nestle even closer to his side, and the harmony of the organ swells on the air. "Look up, Harvey," quickly whisp ers my brother Jack, with his own eyes devoutly dow ncast. "Another new organist a divinity. Tlie fourth In a month. Extravagant!" Although not exhorted to do so, I lift my eyes discreetly until they rest on the choir, then single out the form and face of tho new organist. Her face is fair-tinted as a sea-shell and rounded in soft, elilld-like curves o: cheek and neck and chin; the nose is very small and slightly, daintily "tip- tilted," while her mouth Is the sweetest the most perfect I have ever seen, al though there Is a pathetic droop at the corners, 1 think. nven w idle I am gazing her eyes meet mine, and I sec then that they are in perfect harmony with her mouth! So large, dark, unsDeakably beautiful, and full of a deep, thoughtful sadness; glorious contrast to the pale-gold ring' lets that droop beneath the edge of her crape hat in shining tendrils. Carelessly her eyes rest on my face.as carelessly they pass and rest on Den. zil's, and Iseu a sudden change In their great, lustrous splendor. What It Is I cannot explain perhaps mingled pain, passion, regret and reproach. There Is a momentary crash of the organ, a lull, then the music goes on as before, only that Ihebiown eyes are not raised again while the service lasts. When I again dare to look In Dcnzil's face, we are seated In the carriage on the road home. That to-day Is not the llrst time hu has seen the organist I am sure, for to his face also has come a cer tain change, deepening the lines and hardening tho stern, powerful eyes. "Pretty young for a widow, Isn't sho, that organist?" .lack says suddenly while we are seated at dinner. "Hut she Is a widow the Reverend Philips told mo so named Mrs. La Rue. She Is stoppina at the rectory, and they are to have a mustcale Thursday night, In which they wish us all to tako part. Will you, Clarke? Of course- Harvey will. lie's right to home In such things." Some Instinct bids me beware, not to tempt my life-long happiness; but a leellng of unrest, of wonder, of hurt pi hie, is in in y hcait. I must see them together, must read some atom of the truth In their faces again; so I answer a gay alllrmatiye, all the time watching Denzll's fare, but beyond that added bterncss It gives no sign of emotion. As leading musicians and paiishlon crs we are asked to come early, there fore I stand, alone beside Denzll when we are formally presented to Mrs. La Rue. If ever there has been anything be tween these two, they have schooled their feelings well, for neither the ex quisite, llow er-llke face of tho woman, nor the stern, haughty one of Denzll - 1 expresses more than common courtesy, Itellmyselflh.it It was faney, that I twill not make myself miserable by, doubts and fears. What If they Have met befote? Ilut then. If they have.why should not Deuzll acknowledge It? Why . . . . . should they meet and. pass as stnucers? 1 For all my-wild unrest, the evening pastes pleasantly euottjh, aud I have $1.00 a 9, 188(5. If and guitar with almost equal skill It seems odd to think of -this woman with the sweet, flowcr-llko face nnd un assuming, tender grace of figure and manner as having been married at all. She must havo loved her husband very much, I think, that his death could write such unutterable sadness In her face. She cannot be more than twenty one. Won't you sing, Mrs. La PiUe?" I ask presently. I should llko to hear her voice In song. I think I could judge her better whether the object of her love was living or tlrad. I never sing any more," sho says. with a slow smile. "I think niv voice would break and die away if 1 attempted it. I lovo vocal music, and won't you ing. Miss Relnalt?' I sing as requested, and the wonder Is that I do not break down myself, for when I look at Ucnzll I find his eyes fixed on Mrs. La Rue's face with such passionate, despairing intensity that witli difficulty I suppress a cry of pain. For in that look is disclosed emotion of such Intense dcptli and power as ucver have I been able to call forth. In that look Is his nature revealed not calmly, coldly tender, as I have al ways known him but capable of joy or pain to the very extreme of madness. Whatever Laurlu La Rue has been to him I know not. 'I only know that my own heart Is on lire with doubt, torture and fear, All, Heaven! what Is this cloud which lies between us, pressing so heavily on my heart? Why Is It that I, who love him so well, hayo not.povvcr to break in any way the calm, courteous self-pos session of his nature? I want to scream out In my mad, yearning pain; I want to use some des perate extreme, lest I should go mad; but, even as society people generally do. give no outward sign until I am In niv own room the uoor locked bcuinti me. Then I sink crushed with a hope- less apathy on the floor beside the wludow-slll, and hide my face upon-my arms. I try to picture my future as it will be hopeless In any case, for If I marry Denzll Harvey I shall do so with the full conviction that his heart belongs to another. If I do not marry him Ah, Heav en, all tlie long weary years to come ami go I Not that not that! Uettcr to look on my own funeral. Without, tho soft wind is sobbing against the lattice of my window, and the white moonlight lies heavy on dewy sin ub and sleeping flower, with God's sky bending above. I step out and down the long garden path even thiough the rustling becch-gtovc, and down what fatality draws me there? to Iho edge of the lake which glistens in the moonlight. Hut evidently I am not the only one beside, the lake to-night; and 1 am al most upon them before I recognize with a pang of wild, passionate pain the fig ures of Denzll Harvey and Mrs. La line, and his voice, fraught with passion cold, sneering, mocking as I have nev er heard it come. "I could not sleep," he says. "I am even fool enough to have not yet for gotten. Unless I saw you alone unless I spoke with you I felt that I should go mad. Does your power to mar my happiness that much pleasu you still, Mrs. La Rue?" To the mocking question she gives no reply, but I can see that her little hands aro loosely clasped before her that her great dark eyes aro thoughtfully fixed on a spot far out where the moonlight' strikes the water. Denzll's voice continues, changln from a sneer to a wild, passionate re gret. "You were so sure of your power over me. Did you come hero to iuake a fool of sue the second time, only lo again throw me over for a newer favorite. Spare your pains I am beyond your power engaged to a woman with heart-Miss Relnalt." Then she looks up suddenly, involun tarily tluowing out her hands with gesture of passionate pain. "Don't!" she pleads hoarsely. "1 on aro cruel as the grave. Has not my life since then been atonement sufficient for my folly! I was false to you I mar ried Ronald La line, but well, I won der if any one Is ever quite so happy as they think they might have been? Lis ten. When 1 am not here, judge me lightly as you ran. In a moment of girlish folly and pique, for which the woman has repented, I married him, but 1 always loved you, Denzil. And because I loyo )ou, 1 go out of youi life forever." The sudden gleam ot two white up lifted hands,,a gurgling splash, and the glimpse of a lovely faeo above which the waters baslned below the stono wall close eagerly; then a man's hollow groan, another leap, and I am standing alone on the bank of the lake, wonder lug if It is not all a iilglilmate. Hut, thank Heaven. Ihey rise lo the surface. I actually lift the slim, uncon scious form from his arms with a sob of jov, which 1 think must have killed all the sellish love Ir my heart; for bending above the still while form, I beg Dt-nzil to release me fur my own sake, because I think it best. 1 do not deceive him, huwever, for he looks seaichiugly Into iny face nnd says: "Hod bless vou. dear, and forglvo mn I It shall be as vou say.
