Soon after, both the widow and he ure
Hurtled by a low, chuckling, revengcliil
whistle, which they cannot trace to lis

Philips becomes c.iutaiii of u vessel, and
marries Widow Restore, lie seeks anil
llnds Kreat treasure In a sunken Spanish
ship In the Bahamas, under the patron
age or the Imke of Albemarle. Jle Is

Boston with wealth, und with a golden
cup for his wile, now I.udy Phipps. This
cup, found in the dead don's ship, is culled

the "cup of Thanksgiving" by Lady
Phipps. Returning to Knglnnd iiKaiu,
Phlppa Is made governor of the province
of .Massachusetts. When he comes home,
his wife und he once again hear the re
vengeful chuckle. Tho witchcraft dela
tion reaches Its height In New England.

another part of the province, and in his
absence Jane (.'one culls on I.ady Phipps,
reminds her of the Injury done by the gov
ernor to her boy, now dead, und threat
ens to accuse I.ady Phipps of witchcraft.
As Jane noes away she repeats the chuck
ling whistle which has mystilled the gov
ernor und his lady for many years.

Tin? flock struck ten.
What was she to do? If witch testi
mony were still to he taken In the
courts of law, Jane Cone had only to
pretend to have been Jiewltihed by
tier! tu tell what site had seen und
WHO HAS DONE THIS THING?"
heard: to tell the story of the mng-lc
books; to cite the Interviews with the
inlldel Calef, and to point to her lite
as not belonging" to common affairs.
Tho great Rolden cup Itself might
prove a witness against her. Did ever
a woman receive a ifold goblet In (Such
a way outside of the tales of enchant
ment. A farm on the Charles river had
been her early home, and she wished
for a simple life again, In some rural
cottage. Into whose doors envy and
jealousy and revenge did not come.
Kleven! How a single evil sugges
tion may change the whole color of life!
How soon may be the transition from
the light to the shadow. Contentment
Is happiness, ami she would be content
to dwell under the shadows of a com
mon lot. If only the truth could be made
clear and her good name be spared.
"Wishing the happiness of everyone, un
eelllsh In motive and blameless in life,
visions of what might arise from such
li charge lifted thir unwelcome forms
darker and dnrker before her, like the
Incoming clouds of a tempest after Ions
days of sun and calm.
For the first time she knew what the
heart might suffer. She pitied the so-
culled witches In prison, und saw the
helpless agonies through which some
lied gone to death.
She saw the true value of the accusa
tions that had been made on what was
known as "witch testimony," or the
fancies of those supposed to have been
bewitched.
Yet there was something real In these
delusions? Might not on evil-minded
person exert a destructive lnlluenco
over another, and would such an influ
ence not be of the worst of crimes? If
there be an Inward power that builds
men by the Inspiration of faith In them,
' might there not be such a power to
destroy? Might not one, Indeed, cast
"an evil eye" that would wither? Ij11
not the dispositions of the good towards
men have their effects, and lift the
'Wing of life, and was it not so with
evil volition might not a wish wither?
Midnight.
Her resolution came back to her. She
must act. She took her pen und wrote:
My Dear Husband: I nm accused of
Witchcraft. Return at once.
The testimony of witches must no lon
ger be (taken In any courts of law.
You know that I am Innocent,
But think of how many people ns In
nocent as I have already suffered Impris
onment und death.
You must tulle a firm stand.
Your Atiliuted Wife.
Sir William Phipps" chariot came fly
ing back to Boston town. The gov
ernor was In a terrible rage; his good
resolutions of self-restraint seemed to
have been thrown to the wind. His
lirst question as he met his wife, and
aw her altered face, was:
"Who has done this thing?"
"Jane Cone Is my accuser; it has not
come to the public yet."
"I will throttle the hag!"
"No; in this hour of test, William
Phipps, you wlll do Just right. You
once did an Injury to her boy, and this
Is the time of the harvests of revenges."
"It is a lightning stroke on u dark
road. I see the way."
"I thought that I saw tho way, but
Wast not sure."
"What am I to do?"
"You must make it known that witch
testimony cannot be taken in the
courts."
"Bu the Mathers, and the clergy?"
"The Mathers? "The dulses compel
me,' said the French king to the Hu
guenot potter. 'Then you are no long
er a king,' said the potter. Is Cotton
Mather or are you the civil governor
of this province?"
"I see my duty.- I can see how witch
testimony may arise from revengeful
motives, und how it may be a lie and a
delusion. I have followed the counsels
of wise and good men who meant well.
Hut 'the Guises' shull not 'compel me.'
I have come, under your inlluence, to
make my conscience my law of life,
nnd there shall never be another trial
1 1 New England on the accusation of
witches, never, never, since you, my
wife, are In peril of being accused."
There came Into his face a moral
force that - was ennobling. Then his
countenance fell again, and he said:
"Hut the hag?"
"You have done her wrong. Site has
a complaint against you. You must go
to her ana right your own wrong! You
, wild that your conscience had become
your law of life. Has It?"
He stood silent.
He had come to the turning point nf
his moral and spiritual history! lie

faced the guide port to the two ways.
"Yes: it has. I did the woman wrong
in her boy. I will go to her, and I will
myself make reparation and do what
Is riirht. Then I will reason with her
about the charge, and if she retract 1
will leave her In peace. I could not
have done this In my early days."
"You could not have said that a year
age?"
"No."
"Titles do not make a knltfht."
"No."
"Nor fame."
"No."
"Hut you are n knight, and you would
be one now without title."
"My conscience bus become the law
of my life."
"Your conscience has become the law
of your life. 1 can see it has. I know
it and feel it. And the law of con
science must be based on the principle
that should govern all life. The one
guidance of truth, supreme, imiuortul,
is 'whatsoever ye would' "
"I know."
" 'Whatsoever' then go to Jane
Cone! Baronet, governor, go to poor
old Jane Cone."
"I will go."
Sir William went, as a comnio nman.
lie returned to his wife.
"1 have made Jane Cone m.v friend.
If you hud not been accused, this view
of my duty could never have come to
me. The whole colony will rejoice
when 1 give to the public my view
and decision, and In the fall I will pro
claim a Thanksgiving. I can see it all
in my mind as 1 have seen things be
fore. I am thankful for the light. A
new spirit possesses me anil holds me:
It shall end a feast of psalms. This
year New Knglund shall rejoice and
sing!"
"This." said Lady Phipps, "shall be,
too, the year of our own Thanksgiv
ing Feust that one in the spirit of
the highest teaching of which we have
dreamed. It shall crown my life. The
terrible lesson that I have received lias
led me to hold the world less tightly
than before. If I can reulize life's
dream In that Thanksgiving I shall bu
willing to go to tho chamber of silence
where nothins can alarm. 1 shall offer
my thanks for ull mercies on that day
over the Albemarle Cup, ami put the
cup away. And, William Phipps, baro
net and governor of the province, for
giveness is redemption, and 'Restore'
is the jewel of the ring and crown of
happiness, and I shall Invite Jane Cone
to be present on that day us a witness
to thee and to me."
The Thanksgiving day came. The
people crowded the "Old North
church," as we call It now, and the
house of the governor. The military
came to "Cops Hill" the "Ancient and
Honorable Artillery."
Night fell. The astrals were lighted
in the house of the "Faire (lieen Lane."
Under them was placed the gleaming
cup of gold.
C'nlef was there, nnd he read in the
goblet the "Cup of Thanksgiving"
of my lady's prophetic soul.
A hundred guests sat down at the
tables.
Hut what strange object wits that?
Amid the gayety there gilded into
the room, and took a place ut the
tables, poor Jane Cone.
The hour of Lady Phipps had now
come, a more glorious hour than had
been brought her by wealth or fame.
She rose nnd said:
" 'What shnll I render?' " How noble
my lady looked!
She lifted the Albemarle Cup.
" '1 will tuke the Cup of Salvutlon.' "
She stood there in white, her beau
tiful face half hidden by the flashing
gold.
"My husband, you brought me
wealth, but you did not bring me sat
isfaction: "You brought me a titled name, but
my heart wus not at rest.
"You brought to your home the favor
of the church; something was wanting
still:
"Hut, at last, you bring to me and to
all these people, a heart consecrated to
justice and light; is not that so, Jane
Cone?"
The old woman rose, shaking. All
eyes were fixed on her. She had in her
band a sprig of whltherud balm. Her
)'.) quivered, and she brushed the sprig
..i balm across her face. Tears run
down the hard lines of her cheek, and
she bent forwurd, leaning one hand on
the tuble, near the goblet of gold.
"Yes, me I.ady." She brushed back
her white hair. "Yes, your Worship.
There never was a truer word. He came
to me hut, and he asked me forgiveness
for what he did wrong to me b'y; me
b'y that sleeps In the sea. He came to
me, poor old Jane Cone, when it was
all in me heart to do him wrong. He set
ALL RYES WER1! FIXED UPON
HF.K.
me heart aright. I never would have
thought that I would have felt again
ns I do now. It Is not oft that the
withered sialic blooms. Oh, me Lady
I am not wot I wns when I called on ye
that evil night with murder in me
heart. Do ye mind that whistle wot I
made? I am not that woman now;
there Is a song in the heart of old Jane
Cone."
"She shall be his witness and mine,"
said Lady Phipps.
She sat down the Albemerle Cup on
the table.
"Heaven has made my lienrt abetter
cup than that, and has tilled It with
gratitude. I have no longer any need
of a cup of gold. I will put It away.
There bus come to us all. to you and to
me, the spirit of true Thanksgiving!"
Tho Albemarle Cup what became of
It? I have never been able to learn.
The grand epitaph of Sir William
Phipps relating to the leading Incidents
of this stor.y, adorns the ancient Eng
lish church of St. Mary Wool not h In
London. The foundation of the Province
House that Lady Phlppa once owned
among her ample estates Is still visited
by relle gatherers In Hoston; but what
of the golden cup of the sea, the goblet
of Albemarle? It Is passing strange
that tho history of such a treasure
should have ended in mystery. Can any
reader answer the question?
THE END.
MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
New York, Nov. 19. Speculation ut the
Stock Exchange wus quite tame through
out the session. Save in the case of a
few stocks the movements were utterly
devoid of significance, resulting as they
did ulmost entirely from manipulation by
room traders. The bulls managed to kin ..
the stuck market tirm during the first
hour of business. An advance of k, to 1
per cent, was recorded. General Electric
rising 1:1 Manhattan, Tennessee Coal
und Lead Prefeired Pi and the other
shares to :li per cent. The buying
power which was not great ut any time
soon exhacsted Itself and during the
ufleruoon speculation became weuk, the
early Improvement being ulmost entirely
lost. The particularly weak spot were
Sugar and American Spirits. The former
declined to I lick und marketing of stivk
by insiders was ugain in evidence, t'nit
eJ States Leather Prefeired fell to ttj.
Speculation closed dull and lather weak
In tone. Net changes in the general list
Were merely fractional, outside of Sugar
and Heading. The former lost l'i. while
the latter gained ?s per cent. Total sales
Were 2t5,12U shares.

A Woman from the Rose
Bud Garden of Girls.
The woman with
loping shoulders,
her eyes larger than
her mouth, is not a
success in this in
telligent and artis.
tic age. The mis
tress of three mil
lions may catch the
husband who can
place upon her head
a coronet, but hap
py is she who can
boast a legacy of
physical comeli
ness and perfect
health.
If every marriage
certificate conveyed
to the contracting
parties a guarantee of perfect bodily
health there would be few old maids and
no bachelors. A widow or widower would
be a curiosity.
The success of a woman's life depends
more upon her physical condition than
her mental accomplishments. You need
never have a backache, a headache, a poor
appetite, a pain in the sides, be irregular,
