and raid
" Rather tired. I;have been on my feet

pled the coruera of her mouth added, in
the young man's eye, to the winning beau-,

She gave another faint smile. "If you

skew the difficulty of getting a situation,
you would not ask that question. Then
iitjailly pushed a sieeund box of gloves to
ward turn; she added, inn lower tone: • •
"Mr. Sheldon is loomingthis way. I

and Douglas not- stopping to examine

On Sunday afferent - % tear • onset,
Douglaa left a lively circ'e in his `sister's
parlor, and went out for a quiet walk by,
_himself; He entered one of the parks, and
was strolling through the eueny, green
paths, when his beat gavea quick bound
at the eight:of 'it trim hula flgniein blue;
resting ou one; of the shady seats. For iv
moment he hesitated, theuhe crossed over
and spoke: ; • ,
"Geoid evening. Miss Rimer." '
Miss Romer arose with: the ladylike
grace which had long telt Douglas that
she was used to cultivateduciety, and re
turned his salutation. And then they sat
down together, and yielding to the calm
Sabbath evening influeuces, they fell into
a quiet talk as natutally as if they had
been old acquaintances.: They talked of
themselves, and Miss Bomer told Douglas
thatter home bad beea in New 'Haven,
and her Esther was a geutlenian ofineans,
who had lavished upon her, his only child,
every advimtege which money' and taste,
could procure. She told him of the death'
of her.father and Mother iilii - single week,
and how her father's , estate proved in
volved, and left her penniless and - , alone.
She told him she had sought for some
means by which to support herself, and
she had finally obtained her,situation:iti
Me. -Sheldon 's store, and kept • herself in .
corniest, - - , • . _
And Douglas told her that he, tocs,was
an orphan, only himself-end Bell left; . but
he touched -very lightly 'on; the: wealth
that was his, lest it should give her pain.
While they talked Miss Romer dropped
her fan, and Douglas picking it up, ssaw
written moon the, plain 'leery, handle_ the
name " Helen Romer':'"
Helen was my
,mother's name," mid ,
he, reverently.
"Was it? ,It is' mine,"Mid - Misslionser,
in pleased surprise.
"Ism glad it is yours," - said - Dous'es,
and he fell to thinking how often heliad

write it - again with an R . between . the
names-
They sat very still ft little no , ile. hardly

of the 'hour . until the gleam of • the street
iumps - coo - sseurimerteers - ssoiso
hastily arose.saying: did-not know it

Douglus 4 rose, too, saying " May luc

She hesitated a moment, her cola came
and weut, and then she, looking up with

The fires 4,h ich - destroyed' Peshtigo,
Wisconsin, °marred on the evening of th.
Bth .of October; and history has'never far.:
Dished, a parallel of its terrible destrue
tzveness, .Shortly after the thurch-goir.g
People bag ;returned from. the , °,evening
service, au ominous sound was heard, like
-thet 'distant roaring of ,the sea, or like .
coming storm. Labia increased in intenst:
it"), °and sooi the inhabitautt beaitat
alarmedc.and,yapprehensive of, comini
danger.; Balls ot fire were observed to
fall, l4ti metetors in the town, igniting
whatever they camein contact with.. By
this time the whole population were hor-,
onghly aroused and alarmed, and cal .ht
tip their children and what valuables they
could hastily seize and fled for a Place of
safety: Now, bright light appeared' in
the son thwest horizou, gradually increas
ing tilt the heavens were aglow, with light.
But a-few moments elapsed after. this be
fore. the horrible tornado-.of fire came
upon the people, enveloping them in flame,
smoke, burning sand on clutters. Those
who hail,,not now reached the river, or
some „other plaettof -safety . , Were suffocat
ed .and burned to a_ cinder' before they
could advance a half dozen steps further.
God only knows-the horror and. terrible.
sufferieg of the .whole town 'of. Peshtigo
on. that °memorable Sunday night.; It
seemed; as ,if the love of God bad been
withdrawn from the place, and the fury
fiends of °hell had been looSened to watt.
tonly 'vex and torment therpeople.
No tongue can tell, no pen can describe,
no ? , brush can depict the realities of that
night. Bzuggerstion, would he utterly

It wasthe destruction of Sodom re-enact

place bad, mocked, God until his fiery
thunderbolts were loosened for ita destruc
tion. .But.now, he who bad been boldest
in sit: was first to call upon his Maker for
succor. -The character-of this fire was
unlike any, we have ever seen described
before. Itsvas a flame fanned by a hurri
cane, and accompanied by various electri
cal phenomena.l, Those that survived the
terrible ordeal testify that they.. received
electrical shockit,while they saw electrical
flumes flash in the air and dance over the
surface of the earth around. them. But
tbe thry„of the flash was. past in half an,
hour,.. though the fire continued
more,,or, less fiercely during the whole
Thelall effects of the storm were not
appirent until daylight returned, and the
survivors came forth from their. retreats.
A party of:180 fortunately, ran toge
upon a lent meadow below the bridge, and
all wore saved: A familY-0f five persons
saved themselves by jumping tuto.a-shal- -
low , well. °Another family •of the same

We saw many children, some only-, one
month old, which had to - be kept in the
water the whole night. and .yet survived.
Some whO were'tou ill to, walk were taken

Aitirge' number Were drowned, - -Otne bt
