BEBTIE'B PLEDGE.
BT STELLA.
" Three poor topers' have signed
my pledge in one mouth," said Ber
tie Evans - to himself,: as he walked
tdon ,-, thoughtfully.
"I hard work to get them to do
it ; but I don't mind that, if they will
only keep sober; and here is the uns : ,
erable shantpiu which Luke .Martbi
lives. lie is the hardest of all, and
the teioperano - e men have gison him
np. I wonder if it is worth while to
ask him to sign."
Bertio was only twelve; but .he
thoug h t himself quito old enough to
,do some good, so he asked his Sab-
bath. school teacher to write him a
pledge. Who large boys laughed at_
him, and said he would soon get
tired of hunting : up drunkards, ,and ,
even some grown people made sport
of him; but he was a bravo boy, and
did.not care for any-of this, and bad
already persuaded three men to stop
drinking.
s Bertie stopped nearly opposite
the house, a little girl acme out and
sat down on the dirty door-stop.
'She held a large black bottle in her
arms, which she rocked baCI and
forth, singing " hush-a-by-baby:"
Just then the loud, angry voice of
her father was heard calling :
" Where is my bottle ?" ",
The child tried to hido the bottle
under the skirt of her ragged dress,
but the man spied it and cams to
ward,her with a dreadful oath.
" Don't tQke Mamie's dolly,"
pleaded the little one ; but he snatch
ed it from her, telling her to get out
of his way; or he ivonld kick her
out." r
She ran on oil the side-walk, and
with tears of anger shining in her
black eyes, she stamped her dirty
little, foot , defiantly; exclaiming,
"Naughty papal take Matnie's dolly
—talk cross—gets dunk and falls
down. Ugly papa !"
The enraged man raised the bottle.
- 13ertie sprang forward and seized
the child and then /there was a
crash, a pile of broken glass and a
puddle of whisky in the very :spot
where she had stood the momont be
fore.
" Oh, Mr. Martin! suppose you
had killed little Mamie?" and. Bettie I
was ILR pale as he could be,' as he
thought 'of the dreadful danger she
had escaped.
"What did sho stand there for,
and sass her father?" said f the man,
sullenly; " but I'm glad .1 did not'
hurt her," he continued in a changed
tone, "I didn't use to be so fiery and
crazy-like; it'V only since I got too
fond of whisky. But you're the. wid ,
ow Evans' boy, an't you?"
• - "Now's my' time," thought young
teetotal; and then lie-spoke out bold
lc, "Yes, .sir;' and I clime hero for
the very purpw,e of asking you to I
give up this whisky that is making
yuu so much' trouble. I've brought
Iny pleJl-o. along for you to sign."
'ind IT tyokit from the enveloi - e in
which he heal it carefully folded.
" Ole sign tb . e pledge? Now that
is a good juke:, How long AX) you
think I'd lice') it?" And Martin
laughed heartily..' •
"If you'd try very hard, I think
you might keep it always. Just look
at these names I've got already; per
haps you know them."
The man took the paper and lgok
wit
ed. at it a moment. " Yes, I kno Pack
Hastings and Phil Ransom; but RV-
Ina their names hero don't d any
gcld. , I'll bet a dollar they're both
drank now."- _
"They ,have been sober and hard,
at work for two weeks, for I have
seen them every day," said Bettie
triumphantly; " and you ought to
see how glad and happy their wives
and children are." -
" Well, it won't last .- long. Tye
tried often to keep sober; but the
first restaurant,' pass knocks over
all rily good intentions, and in I go
Besides, I must drink to drown my
trouble; there's nothing in the house
to eat but some, cold potatoes,, and
all the money I've got is ten cents' to
buy my next drain." • • •
" Mr. Martin, you know we• are
poor ourselves; but if you will try
with_all your might to keep it, 'I am
sure mother will give you all some
thing to eat,,till you can make 'some
money." . .
"If I thought it was any use, I'd
6 it; for bid as I am, I hate to see
Kate and the children suffer; but I
should be drunk liefore night. I tell
you I can't keep sober."
" But" you :must try once more,"
said Been, gettingterribly in earn-

est. " Here is a 'pencil; sit yighk
down on - :the step and write your
name, and then ecnne home with
me." 4
\ Martin took the pencil and set
down, but shook his head doubtfully.
The, little girl, though too - young
to comprehend the importance of
what was transpiring, seemed to un
derstand that het' father ought to do
as Bertie told him; so she crept tim
idly to his side, and taking his hand
in both her chubby ones, she raised
it up, and laid iteon the pledge which
rested onhis knee. " Mamie sorry
she called papa naughty; write on
paper and be good papa."
"Even Mamie knows you ought ;
don't wait a moment longer," urged
Bertie. - Luke shook his head again,
but slowly wrote his name, and as
he finished .a voice behind him said
solemnly, -" Thank God 1" It was-hie
wife, who had been eagerly watching
and listening.
Mrs. Evens„ . gave them enough
food to lait during the day, and e n
gaged Luke to saii - and put sway her:
winters supply of wood. The poor
fellow was very grateful for lierliud
n'ess,. and determined to keep his
pledge faithfully.
One evening, about three months
after, Bertie went to church 'with his:
mother, and at the close of the ser,
vices t hree men- arose and signified
their desire to unite with the church.
One of them stated that he was a
miserable drunkard not long before,
andoien the temperance men had
given him up in despair, when a lit
tle lio'y came to him with a pledge,
and would not leave him till he sign

'in him — , he-attributed mainly his pre
sent changed condition. The others
also testified that theeeinti lone also
encouraged them to reform,
.rind
prayed that .God's blessing might
rest upowthe dear child.
Mrs. Evans bent down her lead
and , wept for joy, for these men were
Phil Ransom, Luke Martin, and Jack
Hastings. Bettie could scarcely be

hbrue very glad and happy, and
firmly, resolved to work harder than

LINERWS. ;
A TEM,' ABOVE THE' CLOUD&
The highest ascendable mountain
of the Alpine range in this vicinity is
the Righi, nearly a mile and a guar=
ter higli—that; is, a . perpendicular,
height of that distance from , base to
summit. So one bright morning this
week we packed a " sac " and started
-by boat for the foot of the Itighi. At
the village lirhere_the boat landed, ve
hired a pair of 'saddle horses and a
guide, for you must know that the
road is not to be traversed , by . any
thing that has wheels—moreover re
quires feet and limbs of - more thin
usual strength and endurance to gain
the toilsome height: • So off we start
ed, Georgeibn one and I on the oth
er stout-limbed animal,- the guide
leading Gebrge's horse. - Tor half-a
mils or so the road wound through
cultivated hillsidet, but afterwards it
became steep, rugged and stony, with_
many sharp. tuniinge; ,and'' gradually - 1
getting steeper until in some places i
it sgernedhlie going up , a housetop.
It was iniq, as much as our -horses
could•do .to crawl rip. As we • pro
gressed tlift road zig=zagged up the
side of a fscirpendicular cliff thousands
of feet high, and when welooked over
the side of the narrow horse-path in
to the valley far beneath, it was hard
to midst the thought that a misstep
of a horse ,might plunge one of- us in
a moment among those distant tree
tops. About half-way up -we came
to vyhat appeared, to be the end of
the path. • ' - .. •
Across the road and towering, I
should think, at least two hundred
feet above it, were threq enormous
rocks, ono erect, and the others lean
ing againstit._ 4. nearer approach
showed a crevice, which formed- a
leng natural tunnel, high enough to
admit a horseman through it, but not
wide enough to permit two . to :pass
abreast, and so curved tlntt once in
you could not see either end. After
paising this gate of rocks, calledFe/-
senthor in German, we toiled on,. and
in about three hours reached:the sum
mit, called Righ.i Ktifenl, where we
`proposed to remain over all night to
see a sunrise above the clouds. The
view from' the top—recollect hb - w
high it is—is One ever, to` be remein-,'
bared for its beauty. Far benea.th
us on one side lay tho northern ,part
of Switzerland, so-distant as to see*
like a plain, its magnificent hills im
perceptible, its avers -• bat bright
threads, and its lakes only little ir
regular bits of blue glass;--on the
othet side the long range of snow
:topped Alps stretched far from 'east
to west, until they met the Jura
range which divides Switzerland frorri
FranEe.-
The sun -was going down ,as we
strolled but after dinner,,and the air
was cold enough to make us look
around for bur eau-a` clothing. We.
went to bed early, for we expected to
rise early the next morning; and, to
tell the truth, it seemed so lonely up
there we were glad of an excuse to
go to sleep.
Bright and early the next morning
cow-horn's sweet sounds through
the house aroused ,us, and up we
jumped and running to the window
looked out to see a dense' cloud cov
ering the entire mountain tap, shut
ting out everything more than - a few
yards from the house. Happily, be
fore the sun's first rays touched the
snow-clad top of the "Jungfrau" (a
very .high mountain opposite) ; , the
cloud rolled away and we,. had a
charminr,b sunrise. The most curious
sight, , however, to me was to see,
thousands of feet below us, a vast
white - cloud that entirely shut out n
view of the earth, and thus making
us - feel as if we were iii a balloon.. Af
ter breakfast we remounted and rode
down. It Was at least an -hour and
stall before we reached, the clouds,
and we wero perhaps half an hour
riding through ihem—then all was
changed: we had bat jastleft a glo
rious sunshine, withoaot a cloud to
obscure its brightness; now the whole
sky was overcast 'and not a gleam of
sunshine was to .be seen anywhere
For another hour and a half we rode
on,' reaching the• village tired - and
worrr.out, but katruiately in time for
the boat; and glad'enough were . we
to get back to Lucerne. W. C.W:

theory maintained by some of the.
present day, that there is no obliga
tion irrespectiverof merit, no Mond,
foe in any profession or vow, (even
the marriage tieaself,) that can al- -
ienate the right of superior attrac
tions, it is time to exiumne the_zaat- -
ter, and see whether so old and time:
honored a virtue) as Oinstancy can
have outlived its usefulnesa.
Constancy may be said to have two
chief modes of manifestation; the one
where a principle is 'adopted,. or a
cause chosen as embodying our ideas
of the highest i it.ood, and for that rea
son firmly upheld and adhered to;
the other where an equally unswerv
ing deyotiou is given to a.chsice, not
because it is best, but because we
have Made it. 'Much of the consta.n
ey in the world is of the latter kind.
The partydii polities, the sect in re
ligion, the boon,companich, are cho
sen without reOreuee to the prinei,
'phis they npliol,d, perhaps even for
selfish ends; When once ado
they are adhered to from arrapathet
ic yielding-to habit, and the obstinacy
that upholds them; right or wron,g,
is dignified by the-name of constancy,
and flattered as stability. It is not
stranga'that the progress of' intellect
shoUld throw contempt on the stuh
.l)or-ii and unreasoning dogmatism
that flits passes current for a virtue..
A. constancy worth having must work
With open eyes and must court the
light whichldistinguishes truth 'from
error. ,The workings of change are
inevitable arul inv4?lved in. progress.
EVery one whose eXistence is felt in
the world is continually changing,
be
cause continually growing,. arid if ho,
but cling;elbsety to his highest' ideas.
'of ..what.is good and true ; letting go,-
one by one; any that ho has proved'
to be falap or injurious,, he can never
he justly charged with incongtarky. -
The truly eonstant man must have an
independent judgment and 'a firm
self-reliance. , His choices nan,st be
his own, and made 1 from motives
that his conscience and intellect ap
prove---then will his constancy in.
maintaining them against all oppos
inat, influences be truly noble and wor
_
thy`of imitation. -
It may be said that if WO are thus
to be constant only to our highest
ideas of truth and goodness, are we
.kkreek Contracts and drop friend
when
.they fail to meet- our
standard of excellence TN It is on this.
rock that those have split who would
destroy the sacredness of the mar
riage tie; by substituting spiritual
affinities fits higher authority. Their
fatal error is apparent not 'only in the
wretchedness such a pernidiods doc
trine would cause in the world, (but
also from the intrinsic nature of con
stancy. itself. Every promise' Toltm
tarily made, every contract freely en
tered into, creates at once the bind,-,
ing duty of fulfilment. The only ex.-
ception to this is where some actual
wrong Is involved. Then alone had
a promise better be broken than kept.
Of course the more solemn . and per
manent 'the engagement, the more
sacredis the obligation to perform it,
and in this view alone no inconstan
cy can be so guilty, no faithleisnesi
so criminal as that which would dese
crate the marriage veil', and :bring
desolation to, the domestic hearth.
The case of friendships is •different.
Here:no solenin bond seals. a cora
pact'which- death alone can break;
and yet the num -who possesses con
stancy in the best: . 'Stnltui will not far
sake his friend,- even thangh lie be
- disappointed hi him.
Constancy t - 4 high and noble prin
ciples may alWays•find sO, Ailing, to
cling to in humanity,. its& the . con
stancy of true friends cannot be
better shown than b • airing efforts
to develop good s ciples in. the
heart: of the lore , one. If, however,'
such efforts fail, • dwe discover that
the union, ins ••• dof improving our
friend's character, is deteriorating
our own, then royaltY 7 to the right
may require us to dissolve a conneo-
Lion which is only productife of evil.
But the disappointments ythich re
sult from the unreasonable expecte
tioni should never produce incon
stancy. Perfectibn is not to , be found
'on earth, and if we are mortified-to
find-faults in - our friends, we must
remember that tgey also have cause
for sirn'lskr disappointment in us. Al- .
though friendship is not a contract,
nor its ties cemented by promises;
yet there aro certain obligations which
it takes for granted on each side, and
wa can'in no better way' fulfil these
obligations, and be truly constant to
our friends, than by earnestly strig
ing in small things, as in gratiV.tij
