Dying of hunger and cold;
And half the agony of such a death
My Hps have net vr told.
It has gnawed like a wolf.at my heart, inotlicr,
A wolf that Is llerco for blood;
All the livelong day, and Hie night beside,
Inlawing for lack of food.
I drianied of bread In my sleep, mother,
And the sight was beaten to see;
I awoke with 1111 eager, famishing lip,
r.ut oii had 110 bread for me.
I low could I look to you, mother,
How could I look to you,
l'or bread In give to your starving hoy,

For I read the famine In your check,
And In your eyes so wild,
And I felt It Iu jour bony hand,
As you laid It 011 your child..

With a ghastly look hi Its sunken eye.
And famine upon its brow.

What has xor Ireland done,
That the world looks on, and sees us starve.

For the suffering sons of lirin's Isle.
Whether they lite or die?
There Is many a brave heart here, mother,
Dying of want an cold,
While only across the Channel, mother,
Arc many that roll hi gold;
There are rich and proud men there, mother,

And the bread they fling to their dogs to-night
Would give life to me and you.

And hold nie fondly, as you held

Her Honor and His.
1IY 31. KILKI'.X 1IOI.AIIAX.
"He Is a gambler and and worse; yet
you my wife steal from your husband
and honorable guests to meet Everett Gould
at midnight near yonder lonely bride! God
pity me! your smirched honor is mine!"
A swift sharp pallorshot across the beau
tiful, dainty face of Cleo AVcslphal, and her
lovely eyes widened nml darkened with
pain, but she never spoke never stirred;
only stood there staring out Into tho wild
wlntery night.
Outside, the wld sobbed through the
gaunt, bare-lluibcd trees beyond the bleak,
sere meadows; the cold moon rifted the
black, jagged clouds and gleamed ou the
rushing waters of the river, played around
the sullen shades of the rustic biidge where
she had stood only a few short hours ago,
and listened to words that made her life as
bleak, bare and dreary as the wild wintery
night around her.
They had ended then her happy dreams,
hei beautiful hours of security, love and
peace! Xothlng Leonard Westphal might
say could pierce or sting her now. What
would he say? what would he do when the
knowledge which was searing her heart and
bruin had become his also?"
Then slio would again go out Into the
wild dreariness of the night out Into the
cold blustering world from which he had
rescued her, from which he had taken her
to Ills beautiful home, tohls gencrous.loyal
heart. And yet she who Idolized him must
strike the cup of happiness from his eager
lips, thlttst the dagger which pierced her
own heart Into his.
Ills cold, passionless voice that lovely
rlg'd figure started at tho hopelessness of
the tone struck and broko the awful still
ness again,
"Tell me, Sirs. Westphal," ho continued
slowly, "what was this man to you before
I met )ou? What was ho to you before I
fell In love with your pure Madonna-like
face? Will you answer nie? '
Then at last she spoke, and her sweet,
calm voice nevei told him the agony that
was burning out her heart.
"In ease I do not choose to answer. what
then?" she asked quietly, turning hcrdark
cjts from that wlntery scene without to
his firm, sttong face. "Tell me the conse
quences." There was a convulsive start a moment
ary silence while they looked calmly Into
each other's eyes, then:
"The sooner we part the better," he ans
wered coldly.
She smiled a dreary, bitter smile that
Leonard Westphal remembered all his life.
I 111 any case It is tho same," sheaiis-
wcrcd quietly. "Look at ma well before I
speak always remember that I loved you
to my doom for when I have spoken
Everett Gould IS MY lll sllANl)!-'
An awful, ghastly fear shot across itr.
Wcstphal's handsome, face.
I "Your husband!" he gasped hoarsely.
"Merciful Heavens, you must be mad, Cleo.
I am your husband 1"
Without, the wind still sobbed out a re
quiem to all her love and hopes dead and
burled now; within, the light from tho
glittering chandelier fell nn her costly eve
ning robes, on her beautiful, Madonna-llkc
face as she swung around and dropped on
her knees before him.
'It Is all too true, Leon," she cried, In
agonizing tones. "Oh, my love my lost
darling! If only my brain would turn! If
only I could go mad and forget 1 Long be
fore I met you I married Everett Gould,
when we were both on the slagc. He de
serted me for a newer face, nnd ah, I saw
htm drowned before tny ryes, nnd my
rival's lover sentenced for the crime. Hut
he was rescued God help met Yet I swear
to you, my love, that In my checkered life
there has been no willful sin or wrong."
All the anger, the reproach In his eyes
had becomq a stonv stare a horrible,
ghastly pallor had settled on every stron
feature, and without word or sign he fell
a stark, rigid figure to tho rich pile of the.
carpet beside her.
Slowly and calmly she arose and rung the
bell; slow ly and calmly she walked to her
own room the room she would never enter
again; but there were no tears, no misery
apparent. All the hot, bitter anguish
sremed frozen. All the future stretched
out befoio her long and full of heartache.
If only she could die young!
A slim, dark figure, cloaked and veiled,
she stole from the house less than half an
hour later, passed the room where the ser
vants were trying to restore him, paused,
then passed on with a hard, dry sob out
Into the dreary wlldncss of tlio chill No
vember night.
She bought a ticket for Xcw York, slid
silently Into a shadowy coinor of the coach
and remained to waiting, so looking from
the window without thought or aim of any
kind.
Suddenly a man took the scat beside hoi
suddenly a man's voice, soft nnd low, con
taining a mocking caress, whispered In her
ear:
"So, my beauty! I knew you would give
up all for nie. Look up, Cleo, and give
nie a welcoming smile."
She did look suddenly, proudly, and
scornfully into the handsome, debonair
face abovclier, the face of her cyll genius,
Everett Gould, with a mocking smllo in
ids eyes.
Hut she gave htm no answer, only turned
back Indifferently to the wlntery view of a
chill, gray dawn.
If she had only died before she had
ever seen ill
If only, oh, God I she. had been low In
mind, ugly m looks, lost and depraved In
soul to suit the long life spread out before
her the same life from which Leonard
Westphal In his generous -loyo had lifted
her!
If only she dared defy Everett Gould!
Hut she dare not.
He had threatened to sue for bigamy, to
scandalize and smirch the proud name of
Westphal and well, It was just as well to
submit.
Fate was against her, anyway, and the
only happy hours of her life were those
few short mouths when she believed herself
Leonard Wcstphal's wife.
They were dead, those priceless hours;
but,
"Ah, If beside the dead slumbered the paint
Ah, If the hearts that hied slept with the slain!
If the grief dled-but no."
Leonard Westphal turned as a gloved
hand fell on his aim, and a cheery voice
called out:
"Hello, Westphal t Hy Jove! gladtosce
you, old fellow; but how the dcuco did you
como to be In Xew York? Heard some
time ago that you were across the sea."
Leonard Westphal shook hands heartily,
as ho replied:
"So I have been for the last three years,
but one gets weary of that after all. Hound
for any place In particular, Pattern?"
Hartley Pattou slipped his arm through
his friend's, puffed a moment at Ills cigar,
then replied:
"Well, yes; and being duly sworn and
Identified I pronounce you my guest for
the evening. First we'll take supper at the
Star; then there's the theater. Wouldn't
miss It for the world finest acting I've
ever seen."
The curtains were drawn for the balcony
scene the play was "Iiomeo and Juliet"
when they took their places In Mr. Pat
ton's conspicuous box.
Mr. Wcstphal's eyes were fixed with
eager Interest ou the faco of the beautiful
Juliet. Great heavens! It was Cleo his
lost love!
"Smitten?" quciicd Mr. Patton. "Xo
wonder. Magnificently beautiful, but she
looks too much like a sorrowful nun to be
un tho stage 1"
Hut Mr. Westphal never answered, and
and the ptay well played went on. He
low, a magnificent Itomeo pleaded elo
quently; above.that beautiful Juliet leaned,
radiantly, but pathetically beautiful.
Once she lifted her eyes, and they met
the eager, burning ones ot Mr. Westphal.
There was a momentary hesitation In the
play she had schooled herself for this
meeting then her eyes drooped and she
leaned over Hut balcony again, while the
audience fairly held their breath. j
"Iloineo, Iiomeo wherefore ait thou Itonieo?"
"Call 111c but lote, and I'll be new baptized;
I ncter "
There was the flash of a pistol among the
audience a low cry and never by that ac
tor's lips were the words of lEumeo fin
ished. The play was broken up with a rush of
contusion; the dying Iiomeo was borne off
the stage with pitying hands; tho woman
who held the still smoking pistol was se
cured; and behind tlio scenes the actors and
actresses crowded around whispering Iu
low, awed tones, when Leonard Westphal
and his friend forced their way In among
them.
"Cleo Cleo I" ciledMr. Westphal, ashe
paused before the beautiful, while-faced
who had played Juliet. "Oh, my darling-"
"Hush!" she whispered. He is dying
see! It is iiiji!''
"Cleo, Cleo, nro you here?" gasped tho
dying man. "Ferglvo nie, and don't let
J them hang Ninon, She swore she would
shoot me If I went back to you! Say that
she was Insane. Pray!"
j "Before Heaven you are uiy wife I" said

Mr. Westphal, a few days later. "I have
suffered enough, darling. Won'tyoti come
back to me?"
"What will people say?" she whispered
softly. "The old fi lends who knew before
that 1 was your wife? I I would rather
not go back there, Leon."
"Then you shall nol, my daillng," ho
replied tenderly. "I never blamed you,
Uco, and wherever you arc Is my world.
We shall live wherever o plcasr,"
"If only this happiness could last, Leon;
hut I fear"
"Xevcr fear, darling," ho whispered.
drawing her to htm tenderly. "It will pass
from lime Into eternity."

uutchmuii who had sent ills daughter to

at hearing her recite the simplest pieces In
the most bariowlng manner. Upon 1 ne

and what disposition is made of the car

One day a cow was killed out on the
liochelle section, and .1 section boss who
had been recently promoted went out to
mako the report. He told In the proper
spaces what train killed the animal, and
under what conditions It as done. Then
he came to the lino:
"Disposition "
"Well," said he, scratching his head.
"I ain't perfectly sine about that, but being
she was a cow, I think I can guess at It."
So ho filled out the line, which when It
reached the general office read:

' HINTS WORTHY OT CONSIDERATION.
Artistic dress is always more beautiful
than merely fashionable dress.
It Is because French women pay great
attention to the minor details of the toilet,
that they are considered the best dressed
women Iu the world.
A bit of white about the neck lias been
called the Insignia of ladyhood.
While a woman may be able to wear dif
ferent colois, llieic Is usually 0110 that be
comes her best and when this lias been
decided upon, nothing trill be gained hy a
change.
The shade of the hair Is a good guide foi
becomlngness.
Instinctive preferences are In general a
good guide ns to forms nnd colors that arc
most suitable In dress.
