Tho roar of clattering vehicles on tho stone pavements, and tho hurrying footfalls of a rnshlng ultltmTe, jangled with unhnaginabln harshness ;ln my throbbing brain. I.otdorcd a carrjago and was soon being driven rapidly through tho streets. On a hlllj in a remote, sequestered part of tho city, the mnssiye brick walls of (he hospital rose before tne in its environment f troes. After having rung the door bell, I stood looking. dewn at the smoky, noisy metropo lis, until Dr. Uowen, the nperintenndnnt, came tn meet-me. His sympathetic eye cave war bofore tuy reeling gato. "This way, Mr. Lofton," ho said kindly, touching my elbow, "tho first door to tho right. No, not that way," ha continued, coming quickly to mo as I, hardly conscious of what I was doing, had started to enter the door on tho opposite dido of the corrl dor. lie guided mo to the right ontranco nd;I went In unaccompanied. It was a largo saloon used for the rccep- tion of visitors. On one sido I saw a group of sileut wo- men; I did not look toward them save with flying glance. I had thought I would be calm enough to moot It bravely, but I was not. A dazzling film was before my sight, ray brain whirled. I wont across., the room, feeling .very faint, and sank into a chair before thejflreiess grate with mv back to tlie A$riW. '. I beard them leaving tho room, could feel their sympathetic gunces as they re tired with ccholess steps Into tho corridor. The doer was closed. I was alone no, not alono, for It was tlicro wbero they had left it, there to remind raa with Its weird aspect of my lost Hie, of all that heaven had dene'd me. My mind was busy with tho past, rio fore my Inner oyes rpso a picture so bright and cloudless that it soothed my aching soul. A cbuntry firm house, trreen fields, wide- reaching meadows and rugged hills with beetling cliffs; all asleep In a balmy sun shine, rippled with gentlo breezes from frothy clouds and distant mountains. Tho air is odious with ths petfume of wild flowers and now-mown hay, and musi cal with the songs of birds, the Intinbulat- Ing chimes of dbenp bells, and tho bleating of lambs. I recall a maiden's face,dreamy,exquislte- ly fair and beautiful in a bed of wary new gold trestc;. Eyes darkly-lasbed, like tho blue which great depth gives to clearest still water. She was hardly IS years of age; alight and graceful. Her voice and laugh thrilled tho listener with delicious melody. I am thinking or Ethel Lampkin as I saw her 0110 summer at her home In Virginia. slceyes with pink, and her little blue veined hands, tlie Upctlngflngera of which I held, for a moment, trembled In my warm clasp. Hor eyes were down-cast; ominous pain nes had driven away all her facial anima tion. Hue drew her band away, slowly, as if fearful of wounding me, and moved, not vouchsafing to speak, homeward, no doubt hoping to turn the current of my words. I continued, bonsver, to opeu mv bwt lo her as wn walked along. Il6w earnestly, and with what futility did I long to have her cyns meet ralna with the same frarless glance of confidence as before. She leemed anable to speak, and when I left her, saving that I would ivo her tlmo for reflection, iinr laahrs were glistening with (ear drops. I sought hnr again that evening. Her father met me. requesting me to be sealed on a rustic seat on the lawn. "Ethel had spoku to hlm.' he said. 'Sh is somewhat startled just now," ho continued. "She likes you very much, Mr. Lofton, and I am lure she will content tn jour wishes when she has duly considered ibem; don't forget that she is very voiuii: and Inexperienced. One thing 1 an, pre pared to assure yon, that alio doHi .not love anotlw." He left me. saying that be would send her to mo. She did not come as readily as bad been her wont. Finally, with maul fast reluctance, she came out of tho wide, nullf htf-d hall and crossed tho ver anda, stepping slowly down the steps. She lingered vet a moment to pluck a sprav from a climbing boney-surklo and to pin It to the lace at her white throat. I put out tay hand and drew ber to my sldo. When I had renewed mv nrotcsla- tions, as delicately as 1 knew how, asking her to be my bride, she consented with words so low and inward as to bo almost Inaudible. But tny eager ear caught them all, and the broad expanse of the heavena seemed too small to afford a vent to my exultation. I clasped hci In mv arms and kissed her cold, partly averted cheek. Truly, love had mado me blind. I did not droam of anything hut bliss. I was snre that I conld make her happy; my en tire life, every energy of body and mind should bo bent to that purpose. A few days later wo were married. Ethel was a palo and reticent bride. She would como ont all right her mother said, it was natural for her to Vo so under the circum stances. I took her to tbs city. I was congratu lated heartily on all aides, and nas justly proud of the gem I had selected from th world of women, She belonged to a prond southern family, was highly educated for one eo young, re- uued and made an excellent appearance in society. I secured rooms at a popular hotel. It was tho habitation of many, fashionable neople. The spacious parlor, ball room, and wide balconies were thronged nightly with the plpasure-foud elite of the gay me tropolis. Ethel liked that sort of life she had seen very little of society ind 1 congratulated myself on securing such very agrteablo quarters. She soon became a general favorite. Sho danced beautifully, and sano exquisitely. No party at cards, to dance, or attend the theatre was deemed complete without my little wife graced It with her happy pres ence. She would come to me at times and Implore me to tell her If she was acting wrongly In participating so freely in amuse ments. And out of tho fullness of rv con tentment at seeing her happy, would In variably answer "No." After marriage I began to feel the re sponsibility of having a -vlfo and applied m self closely to my profession, remaining in my offlce the greater part of each day and seeing littlo of Ethel except in the evenings. I was anxious to achieve pro fessional bpnors- -more on account than to gratify any ambition of my own.

LKDRRIt IimMHNO. A CURIOUS EPISODE. A few days ago a young lady of good so cial poeltloti, and Ihn daughter of most ie speciabto parents, was arrested In 1 jewelry store In Brooklyn for the laiceny of dia mond rlugs. She was examining a tray of the costly jewels when, as she describes it, an uncontrollable Impulse urged her to take a handful and conceal them about her per son. The grief and consternation of ber parents, when the fact was made known to them, Is readily conceived. They procured her release on bends, but she wllihave to stand her trial for the crime. In the same police cotitt where this fashionable girl was arranged, another young girl was pres ent to answer to a similar charge. Sho watched ititcutly the pioctwlliig which had to do wltb this novice In crime. And just as they were concluded, she rose and facing the Judge, said In a voice which cat the air llko a knife: "You are itoitig to make a thief out of tbatglrll" The words thrilled through the court room like an electric shock. O Ulcers and spectators were alike amazed. I was once like her," continued the young woman, "and my first crime, was like tier's. I could have bean saved then, If they had let me go. I should never have (Tended again. But they seut me to prison, locked me op with thieves and abandoned wrotches, and I am now what 1 am." The sensation which this announcement created was reported to bo Immense. The episode, however, quickly passed, and the ordlnsr.r routine of the court went on as usual. The circumstances, however, it fruitful of tbonjtbt to those who are devoting their Ilvc6 to the reformation of criminals. Per haps this young woman spoke the truth. In her case the punishment was the con firmation of a criminal career. No one will argue that the perpetrator of a .first crime should Invariably bo. let off without punishment But should the machinery of justice be always Inexorable and .implac able? Should It neer be relaxed? Are there no circumstances when the .yell of silence should be drawn over a crime? .Is there such a thing as uncontrollable lm pulse? Theso are questions which courts and 'reformers ought to study, and stndy thoroughly. kildren. Men. 01h. gU A. C. YATES &Cb.'j SIXTH & CHESTNUT. ' LEDtiEB Bmr.mxo.
