Soft, sweet am! low the sound of a V.I0II11 floated ilon u the busy slreet of n great city, In '.ho saddest most ;uoiiiiifui of strains. The musician was old and ugly, an old man with scant, white hair, ami hard fea tures and wild, black eyes. He was ragged and Oirly, and there was a fierce look upon his wrinkled features. They seemed to hear the mark In plain staring letters of u hard, hard life, talents misapplied and wasted, and now a itrlm old age which was pitiful to witness. But what music lie drew from the old violin' In his hands! A blackened, time worn Instrument, which would surely bring a large sum from a collector of curiosities and antiquities. Such soft, plaintive ulrsj such w ild, blood-stirring strains; such low, sobbing, walling, the bow drew forth the imprisoned music within the old, cracked Instrument. Two young men were sauntering slowly down the street, arm-in-arm, and they stopped tn listen. One was fair and proud looking, rich steel-blue eyes and golden hair, and a look of high-bred hauteur ' 7i upon his delicate face. nAKj Live and Let Live." face, and soft, brown eyes. A noble-look- ing man, wnn a noble Heart. lie was wealthy nnd alone In the wotld, was Guy siumovani; no nail no ties of rnmlly and only a few tried friends! Ilcstood listening lo the music, his soul In his eyes, his face growing slowly pale "It is beautiful!" cried Ills friend, light ly; Nell Gordon was apt to judge every thine lightly; but Guy said nothing spoke no word. With lilm the true appreciation of true music could be expressed only by the elo quence of silence. So he stood there like one spell-bound, while the music faltered away and was. still. Then he started nd a slight shiver ran over his graceful form like a chill. The old man held out a very dilapidated haUJs-eilGordon fluinr a coin Intotl.e .e. ?ptaclc, but Guy Sturdevant drew a bank- note from his pocket and laid It Iu tlio old inau's giimy hunt!. "1 have heard Ole Bull nnd the reit," he rcmaikeu siowiy, "but no violin music has ever touclieu my heart before. 0 Id man you ought to bo upon the boards! Why do vou not play for the public-the fashionable public In some gleat theater?' tV cynical smile crossed the musician's lips, and there was a twinkle in ills deep set ejes. "Just light the world!" he ejaculated. "Here I give you my best music, out in the flee air, with God's blue sky above our heads, music which need cost you nothing, for If you do not choose to contribute aou need not, you know !' Yet you are not sat Islicd!" "I spoke for yourgood,"returned Slitrde- rant, noting tlio angry flash of the old mans eyes, "lou know that the world never appreciates free favors. To be te- celved and listened to as au artist by the world, one must occupy a definite and re spected position." "Yes, yes; I know. The world of fash ion pays its live and ten dollars to hear Pattl, yet that same world would scarcely stand In the street to listen to tlio divine dt'ea's singing, should she sing there un heralded. I understand, sir. Thanks for your generous donation." And returning his ragged cap to his bead, ic turned to move away. "That Is n fine Instrument," interposed Nell Gordon. "What will you take for it? Old, too. A Cremona, 1 do believe!" In surprise nnd attempting lo lay his hand upon It. But the old man drew oack with a low cry of rage, his face pale, his eyes flashing. "Don't touch It!" he panted. "I will not sell It I will starve first! That violin Is priceless, sir worth Its weight in gold to uie and my child." Nell -Gordon "turned aside with a s)ave apology, and the old nian hurried away. Uut his sudden movement just at the street' crossing, crowded with carriages and lmr- ying pedestrians, threw him right In the vVy of.a pair of reaiing, plunging horses. en Hied and ready to trample any object Iu their path. A moment later, and the old man lay up on the giound right under the lion-shod hoofs. But with a swift movement Guy -tSluritevant rushed to bis side, caught the frightened horses by the bridle, throwing them back upon their haunches, and sav ing' the old musician's life. But he was unconscious, and had suffered injury of some kind. Yet even In his Insensibility he clutched the precious violin in Ills arms, and it was quite unharmed. Guy Sturdevant had the old man carried Into a neighboring drug-store and resusci tated, then he had liltn placed in a cab, and sealed himself nt his sit!c. "Tell me w here to have you driven," lie said to the old man. "To Little's Court," the musician re lumed. "It's a rough place for such as you to come to, young sir, and 1 oughu'tto let you; but Htowhle will be so frightened lo see her old grand-dad brought holuc this way. I I'd be glad to have your company." "Who is Brownie?" asked Guy, Invol utitarily- "My granddaughter, sir. It's for her aske that I play iu tlio streets; ouly, sir, she doesn't know that It's In the itrcets that I play. I make her believe that I am employed In a theater.'1 Guv Sturdevant nodded. He understood tlio pride which prompted this. He wondcreJ, too, at the old man's evi dent education and refinement, lie did know that the rags and dirt wetfl eacli dav and at:ain at night assumed by the old musician to hide his identity, and to keep from Brownie the knowledge of his real occupation. They reached the court, and the old inau's quarters, plain but scrupulously neat apartments upon (he second floor of a tum ble-down old house. And here Guy Sturdevant saw Brownie Allen, and loved her at first sight he, the aristocratic young millionaire; but love, like death, is no ro spector of persons. A slim, pale little maiden, with brown eyes and hair, hut the loveliest face In the world to Guy, .After thai he was a dally visitor. He found Brownie highly cultivated. She had spent three years at college, and had made tlio most of her advantages. Time passed, but the old man did not recover. Guy Sturdevant saw that he could not live; that jioor Brownie would soon bo alone In the world. And he loved her. Poor and obscure, yet she was a lady, and Guy Sturdevant had chosen her from all the world for his wife. He asked her to ho his wife, and sweet, blushing Brownie, cousenlcd. The young man marked the evident un easiness of the old man, the unspoken fear lest harm should befall the girl when be would be dead, and Guy proposed an im mediate niatrlage. So, one fair Spring evening," Guy Sturde vant and Brownie Allen entered a small church In the suburbs, and when they re turned to the sick man's side they" were husband and wife. But even their liappl ness could not keep the old man alive. He died as he had lived quietly, uncomplain ingly, making no moan. He simply drew Brownie's bead down upon the pillow and whispered softly: "He is good and true, dearie. You have done well. Darling, the vlollu Is all that I have lo leavo you. Swear that you will keep It till you die!" "I swear!" the faltered between sobs and tears. -lie died that night, and when he was VwiedaudttySturauYjftt took tU wife' He died that night, and when he was 0 away, the violin wns all that they took fiotn that humble home.

Hidden away inside tlio lollu was rt heap of crisp new bank notes, and United Stales bonds, to the value of many thousauds of dollars! The old musician had beer a itch man; and he had taken this iccentilc method of disposing of his wealth, which now saw the light of dav In good time.

Bv a rareful examination of insurance reporls we llml that there lias been a shaip reform Willi reference to examinations (anil mat no man can now get any amount of Hisurance who has the least development oi liiuncy uisoriierj, because they find that sixty out of every hundred In this country do, either directly or Indirectly, suffer from kidney disease. Hence, no reliable com pany w ill Insure a man except after a rigid urinary examination. This reminds us of a little instance which occutred a short lime ago. A fellow editor was an applicant for a respectable amount of insurance. He was rejected on examin ation, because, unkuowu to himself, his kidneys were diseased. The shrewd agent, however, did not glye up the case. He hail an eye to business and to his commission, and said: "Don't you worry; yougetahalf dozen bottles of Warner's safe cure all dealers keep it take it according to direc tions and In about a month como around, and we will have another examination. I know you will liud yourself all right and will get your policy." The editor expressed surprise at tho agent's faith, but tho latter replied: "This point Is a valuable one. Very many Insui- ance agents all oyer the country, when they find a customer rejected for this cause, give similar advice, and eventually he gets .the Insurance." What are we to infer from sucli circumst ances? Have shrewd Insurance men, ss well as other shrewd business men, found the secret answer to the Inquiry? Is it possible that our columns have been pro claiming, Iu the form of advertisements, what has proved a blessing In disguise to millions, and yet by many Ignored us an advertisement? In our files we find thousands of strong testmonlals for Warner's safo cure, nb two alike, which could not exist except upon a basis of truth: indeed, tney are published under a guarantee of $5,000 to anyone who will disprove their coi redness, and this offer has been standing we aro told, for iiioic man iour years. Undoubtedly this article, which is simply dealing out justice, will be considered asau advertisement and bo rejected by many as tticu.
