10 THE SORANTON TBIBUNJE-SATURDAY MORNING. AUGUST 38. 1897. j "A DAUGHTER s From Household Words. "Why Is It n. law of nature that tall women must marry short men? I wnnt to mnrry. Hut what man of decent sta turo will wed 5 feet 97 I refuse to mar ry nn thlnR under 6 feet, so 1 Hhall have to dlo oji old maid. It's very hard". "You will scarcely ho measuring the man's Inches when you fall In love, Anna," said her friend. Perhaps the heavy figured, plaln-fea-tured woman of nlno-and-twcnty would not have been averse to changing places with the tall, supple-limbed young Am nzon who bemoaned her 111 luck from the long deck chair on the sunny vic arage lawn, and would have taken fate's fine of a possibly short husband kindly enough. "I shall measure his Inches before, Tind so I phall not fall in love, wise Lu don't you boo?" "And you would rather marry a man like Charley Langley, C feet of well built stupidity, than, we will say, Mr. Itoyco, who Is clever and " "Handsome, and almost n pygmy, I allow Mr. Royce to be the miniature model of what a man should be but I do not vlsh to marry o. model, I want the man. Some big men re handsomo and clever as well: but big men like little wIvps, and io I must go husband less. Charley Langley worships little Flossie Crosscld. Heigh ho! What am I to do? I must be off, Lu, or I shall be late for dinner." One the other side of the thick, quick set hedge stood Owen Itoyce, the clever crtlst of whoso future great things were predicted. Walking carelessly be side the overhanging hawthorn, nnd wild rose, he hnd been caught and held by a straggling thorn; while Im patiently unfastening the detaining bramble tho words spoken in the garden had fallen on his ear. He was clear of the thorn at last; he was standing erect nnd still In the meadow, his eyes on the low summer sun, and with a thorn In his heart piercing and burning as no more physical pain could do. He bad walked carelessly through the sum mer, ns he had walked through the brambles to And himself suddenly caught. Two months of tennis, riding and boating with Anna Wnymoor bad not left him heart-whole. Heart whole! ITo bit his lip, and put a band across his eyes; lie could see her men tally, tall even nmong the tall women of the la,v, beautiful In her strong grace. Like many small men, the ar tist was wonderfully active and wiry; neat-handed, and quick of eye, he was an expert in all he did; during his two months' stay at Grey land Manor, be had goml-naturedly coached Miss Wnymoor In her drawing, at tennis, nnd had tnught her to ride with some of the "haute ecolo" knowledge which he himself possessed. That teaching had leen a dangerous pastime; parti cularly dangerous were their long read ings and talks together, perhaps it was , tnen that the artist had fallen head long in Jove with his beautiful pupil, when the "Amazon" had been laid nslde, when the gracious, gentle woman had sat beside bim witli her tender, deep gray eyes, and with color coming and going hud learned to love Beatrice and Juliet, and to know, through him, her Shnkspoare and Dante by heart. And nil the time she had thought of bim merely as what he was "almost a pigmy." He saw himself suddenly as little more than n dwarf a laughable ntom! He envied the dull booby Langley his broad shoulders nnd great frame; what a beautiful woman such a woman as Anna Waymoor could care for such a scrap of humanity ns himself? Yet he had dared to love her to love her as intensely as any C-foot Hercules could do.though he Teamed to know it only when he learned that he the pigmy scarcely ranked In her eyes as a man nt all. Anna stood armed with her golf clubs on the manor terrace; Louisa stood be side her, a study In drabs, a foil to the fresh, brilliant coloring of her friend. "Sow, Mr. Maxwell Is what I call a man, Lu," the girl was saying. "He Is big and well made. I can not speak as to his head-piece. And he appears to have no dislike to a tall wo man, my dear." sold Louisa dryly. Anna twirled her club. "No, I do not think he dislikes me. Jack has asked him to stay on for the cub-hunting." "Has your brother persuaded Mr. Royce to remain as well?" "Yes; his picture will give him quite another month's work. He bus grown very stupid lately. I can not think what has covno to him; he paints and paints, nnd is. as dull as an owl," and she moved off to join the stalwart young Maxwoll, who was patiently awaiting her pleasure at the park gate. Louisa went back to the house to speak with Mrs. Waymoor, the widow lady of the manor. At the oor she came on the artist, who stood watch ing Anna and her companion crossing the park, watching so Intently that he was unaware of her neighborhood un til she spoke. He turned with an apol ogy. "I was watching the- golfers; they make a handsome pair, do they not. Miss Blackston?" She followed his gaze; when she looked back at the man. two queer little upright furrows marked her fore head. "You admire her?" "I am an artist. I must admire her." Her eyelids were lowered as she went by him into the hall; she was shiver ing, though the September afternoon was warm and bright. That evening, nfter the choir prac tice, she said abruptly to Anna; "My dear, I think why Mr. Royce has grown fctupld Is because he loves you." The girl leant against the garden gate, and laughed till the tears ran r: tgmm Lfte" THINK OP THE DIFFERENCE between tlii tin.A ftf I..I.I.. ?" ;"- rnnX- 1 1 sl aa2 you ,wvo the difference between N Cottolcne ,nd lard.

"Love me! Mr. Royce! Why, If ho wore elevators In his boots lie. would barely reach to my shoulder. It never occurred to mo that the little manikin could fall In love. How nbsurdl" Louisa turned, almost angrily. "Though It has not occurred to you, It might to him. And you arc such a fool that vou enn not see the man In him! You mnke mo Impatient, Anna, Flirt with Gerald Maxwell by all means; It Is nil you are fit for." to the manor. Gerald Mnxwell overtook "Why are you cross, Lu? Mr. Royce's clover, and I like him; ho Is very kind. 1'oor little scrap! I like him very much. But he Is In love with his academy pictures, not with me." So, through the glorious September days Anna golfed, hunted and cycled with acrald; and the artist painted, Vrylng to forget the pain which held him In Its grasp. Ho sought In his bruised sonl to rejoice that the man of whom her choice would probably fall was at least a healthy-minded, honest country gentleman; he only asked humbly that she might be hap py. Ho stuck doggedly to his picture he said he was too busy to play and he kept his pain, he believed, locked In his own breast; but the queer, up right furrows were on his forehead ns on Louisa's, nnd they deepened as the days went by. He had been painting bard down by the wood until the afternoon Bun was low; at last he put up his brushes and started on his two-mile walk back him, and the two men went together. They stopped at th'e foot of the rail way embankment, lounging against the rail, to watch the express pass; they could hear her thundering In the dis tance, and waited to see her sweep round the bend to the loft, dash across the straight piece of line before them, and then take the curve to the right. Gerald was in high spirits, whistling carelessly In the pauses of his talk. The artist stood silent, content to lis ten. Then to their right, along the line, came the beat of Hying hoofs; both men turned to see, and both gave a simultaneous exclamation of horror, as round the bend, out of nil control, galloped headlong beside the metals Anna's bay mare, tearing furiously on toward the rushing, train, then rounding the opposite curve. Anna sat back in her saddle, white as death, trying to stay the runaway, but pow erless against the creature's mad fright. "She may pass safely on one side," gasped Gerald. Even as he spoke the mad brute plunged Into the center of the Iron road; she seemed for the first time to sight the train whistling and screaming out its warning, but powerless to check In time. She reared straight up, and then stood planted and Immovable In the center of the metals, staring, paralyzed with terror, at the advancing monster. It had happened In a second or so, leaving but scant time for thought or action. Roth men shouted to the girl to lllng herself off, but she, too, seemed turned to stone; she sat dumb, look ing before her with agonized eyes, though her trembling hands yet me chanically strove to turn the horse. In half a minute it would bo too late. Gerald flung up his arms, shouting his warning. He stood there alone, the artist was gone; he had scaled the steep embankment, his small, lithe figure springing up It like a cat; one hand, strong as steel with dumb-bell exer cise, was on the horse's bridle, backing her a step to one side, the other was on the girl, pressing her from the sad dle, telling her to fall to trust him and to fall. Thank heaven! She under stood and obeyed. Amid the thunder and crash of the train he knew that she had swung clear of the metals. There was a blow, and he was down, nnd all was dark, It was a miraculous escape. Maxwell wiped the moisture from his brow as he told the story; Royce had rushed In with the train almost on him, when It had seemed that horse, man and girl must all be cut to pieces; nothing but his wonderful quickness bad saved Anna, who, bruised nnd shaken, had yet fallen clear of worse harm. Poor Black Bess was cut to pieces. Royce's face was terribly cut by the blow which had felled him, yet, mercifully, he had fallen, stunned, In the hollow between the rails, and so had escaped with his life; but he would never paint more, his right arm had been frightfully crushed; amputation had to follow as his only hope of life. The Manor people nursed him devot edly through his illness; nothing they could do could, they felt, repay what they owed to him. Ho was very grate ful for their care and attention. He mado no allusion to his ruined career, though his eye sometimes rested on the half-finished picture which stood in his room. Ho looked resolutely nt the re flection of his scarred face, at the empty right sleeve. Ho had all his life looked at trouble between the eyes; he had never shirked or quailed before It. The man's spirit, nt least, was no small one. But as Christmas nearcd and he grew fairly convalescent, he began to grow restless. In spite of protest, he declared himself well enough to return to his rooms in town. He had stayed at the Manor to paint, now ho must trespass no longer. "Dear old chap, why go?" said Jack. "The mater worships you. Can wo not amuse you hero? Anna will try to; she will rend to you, sing to you. Sure ly you might stay for Christmas with us?" Ho lay very still when Jack left him, looking out at tho red winter sun and the wheeling rooks In tho park elms. Yes, Anna would be good to him; ho knew that. She had been kind so 2 e: i. -..-- . . . . .. 'i couon-pinnt ana uie TK0Z'cL..my ?:"" "" """"nauieucaitu I.BI il. 7." .'V ",..HUU" IUUtK-"VOUO- lows. New York, kind, thnt to Btay on would bo worse torture than the loss of his arm. When Maxwell returned, na of course he would, his suffering would become un bearable. Ho was not so strong as he had been, and things cut deeper; he would bo better away In town. Then Anna learned that their guest meant to quit them. Anna had chang ed of late; she professed to bo tired of dancing, she said she no longer cared to hunt, thnt she liked best to be quiet nt home. She had grown very gentle, very womnnly, and her grny eyes would 'become wonderfully soft nnd tender when they rested on Owen Royce's disfigured face and poor maimed body. They became strangely wistful now ns she said softly; "But we would rather you stayed." "Still, I must go," he answered, pick ing Up his book with unsteady fingers. She was behind his couch, and stood looking nt him In silence with nn oddly frightened expression; then she blushed hotly over check and brow ns she said lnconsequently: "I did not want Gerald Maxwell to come for Christmas. I told Jack not to nsk him; but I did wnnt your here." There wns a pause. The man on tho sofa drew his breath quickly, nnd from somewhere far above his head a tear splashed down. It lay on the scarlet silk cushion, a round, dark stain. He raised himself quickly and looked at her. Yes, tho tears were raining down ficr face. With his left hand he caught her dress. "Anna," he said, hoarsely, "did you guess, then, thnt I loved you?" "Yes," she said In a whisper, "I rend It In your eyes when you caught my horse's bend on that awful day. Louisa had guessed It before, and told me, but I had not believed." He was lying back again on his pil lows, watching her with quiet, hopeless eyes. "Yes, heaven knows. I loved you," ho answered. Then he told her ,what, on that summer's day, ho had over heard In the vicarage garden. "You did not love me then, Anna. Now I am disfigured and a cripple. You are kind and good I understand but It Is only pJty you can have for mo. You would not marry me, save In pity." She was on her knees beside him, half laughing, half crying. "In pity! In pride and Joy. Did I not say, 'A tall woman must marry a small man?' Are you too proud to take a tall wife, Owen? Must I die nn old maid because I am overgrown? Don't you know that to mo you stand high among men; that your scarred face is your V. C; that your empty sleeve Is your badge of glory? Don't you know that bad you died under tho train, I should have had no wish to live? I knew whom I loved then If you are too proud to marry me because of your poor arm because of my heed less, stupid speech then I am not too proud to say that your pride will make one wretched woman. And, Owen, I nm not too proud to accept your pity but the pity is yours, not mine, to give." It was not the stately, beautiful bride who mado the sensation of the day at the Greyland wedding. For once in a way the bride occupied the second place; It was the scarred, one armed bridegroom who drew the hur rahs from the villagers, as he passed up to the church; In him they recog nized a hero, and they loved a hero, whatever his shape or form. With deft, clever hands Louisa had decor ated tlie old church for the bridal; from her seat at the organ she listen ed to the shouts of the crowd; she guessed they were called forth by the empty sleeve across tho bridegroom's breast. It was easy to recognize the grit In the man when he bore such n badge, but she had known it without any shave of a tragedy. Through the service, which was the completion of tho little drama at which she had looked on, Louisa sat with her plain, calm face, directing her small choir with her usual skill; her dull brown eyes were a trifle duller and heavltr than usual, had nny one noticed her, but no one did. Under her touch the oigan crashed out the Jubilant, trium phant chords of the"Wedding March." It crooned softly nnd tremulously Its bridal song. "Louisa plays well to-day. She Is grand!" said Royce to his wife. "She makes the organ speak of love. Lis ten!" "She speaks of what she has never known," said the bride pityingly. "Poor Louisa!" But the organ knew better, and with the womnn's Angers on the keys, It spoke out Ub knowledge of a woman's heart, clearly and fully; Its tones swelled up to tho vaulted roof, and then they whispered, nnd faltered, and died nwoy into the solemn stillness of the deserted church. A NEW WOMANLY VIRTUE. Trcnts a Strnngcr Sister in Gracious l'nshion Altogether .Manly. From tho Delineator. The new woman might well emulate the virtues in which men excel. The kindliness of Intercourse found among men does not characterize the attitude of woman toward woman. A man will mado himself comfortable on a long Journey and at Its conclusion will have nn acquaintance and, perhaps, a friend of his neighbor. But for a woman to speak to a fellow traveller of her own sex without the conventional Introduc tion Is to Invite a snub. Should she Inform her neighbor at the dry goods counter that she has found a certain new lining for her frock most satisfac tory, the Informant would very likely be received with a haughty stare, plain ly declaring the suspicion that the In former gets a percentage on sales. There Is small opportunity under such circumstances to love your neighbor as yourself. Tho experiment has but to bo tried to demonstrate to the graciously In clined woman that there is little room for her who would, even in a small way, wish her sister woman good luck upon her way. Steamers In passing each other display a whlto flutter of handkerchiefs from the human freight aboard, but tho wayfaring woman Is considered a fool If she Inclines to that sort of graclousness on land, And yet a woman Is not necessarily either dls reputablo or designing simply because she speaks to another woman without Introduction. Graclousness, however, need never suggest familiarity. A help ful word may bo spoken with dignity and yet with kindly Interest, and she who resents it Is to bo pitied for her lack of understanding, A gracious "Thank you," even if the well-meant Information Is not needed, proclaims tho gentlewoman. ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE. "That wns a queer story about a man In Minnesota being treed by wolves while on his wuy to be married," Bald tho ulioo clerk boarder. "Most remarkable exhibition of animal Intelligence I know of," said tho Cheer ful Idiot. "Animal Intelligence?" "Yes.

FIRES WERE PUT OUT IN JANUARY lint Juno nnd July Moro Than Counterbalanced tlio Account, for on Iiulcpciulcnco Ony tlio Ponds Wcro Covered With Ico ntiunrtcr oi nn Inch Thick. Tho yenr 1S1C wns known throughout the United States and Eiirope, says tho Sun, ns the coldest ever experienced by any pcrsoon then living. There are persons In northern New York who have been In the hnblt of keeping diar ies for years, and It Is from the pages of an old diary, begun In 1S10 and kept unbroken until 1840, thnt the following Information regarding this yenr with out a summer has been taken. January wns so mild that'most per sons allowed their flres to go out and did not burn wood except for cooking. There were a few cool days, but they were very few. Most of tho time thu air was warm and springlike. Febru ary was not cold. Some davs were colder than any In January, but tho weather was about the same. March, from the 1st to the 6th, was Inclined to bo windy. It came In like a small lion nnd went out like a very Innocent sheep. April came in warm, but. as tho days grew longer, the air became colder, and by the first of Mny there was a tem perature llko that of winter, with plenty of snow and Ice. In May tho young buds were frozen dead. Ice formed half an inch thick on ponds and rivers, corn wns killed, nnd the corn fields were planted again nnd again, until It be came too late to raise n crop. By tlio last of May in this climate tho trees are usually In leaf and birds and llow ers are plentiful. When the last of May arrived In 1S1C everything had been killed by the cold. June was the coldest month of roses ever experienced In this latitude. Frost nnd Ico were ns common as buttercups usually are. Almost every green thing was killed; all fruit was destroyed. Snow fell ten Inches deep In Vermont. Thro was a seven-Inch snowfall In Maine, a three-Inch fall In the interior of New York stnte. and the same in Massachusetts. There were only a few moderately warm days. Everybody looked, longed and waited for warm weather, but warm weather did not come. It was also dry; very little rain fell. All summer long the wind blew steadily from the north In blasts laden with snow and ice. Mothers knit socks of double thickness for their children, and made thick mittens. Planting and shivering were done together, and the farmers "who worked out their taxe3 on the country roads wore overcoats and mittens. ALMOST FROZEN. On July 17 there was a heavy fall of snow. A Vermont farmer sent a flock of sheep to pasture on June 16. The morning of the 17th dawned with the thermometer below tho freezing point. At about 9 o'clock in the morning the owner of the sheep started to look up his flock. Before leaving homo he turned to his wife and said, Jokingly: "Better start tho neighbors soon; It Is tho middle of June and I may get Jost in the snow." An hour after he left home a terrible snow storm came up. The snow fell thick and fast, and, ns there was so much wind, the fleecy masses piled In great drifts along the windward side of the fences and out buildings. Night came and the farmer had not been heard of. His wife be came frightened nnd alarmed the neighborhood. All tho neighbors Join ed the searching party. On tho third day they found him. He was lying In a hollow on a side hill, with both feet frozen; he was half covered with snow, but alive. Most of the sheep were lost. A farmer near Tewsbury, Vt., owned a large field of corn. He built flres around the fleld to keep off the frost. Nearly every night he and his men took turns In keeping up tho fires and watching that the corn did not freeze. The farmer was rewarded for his tire less labors by having the only crop of corn In the region. July came In with Ice and snow. On the Fourth of July Ice as thick as window glass formed throughout New England, New York and In some parts of the state of Pennsyvlvanln. Indian corn, whicli in some paits of tho east had struggled through May and June, gave up, froze arid died. AUGUST STILL WORSE. To the surprise of everybody August proved tlio worse month of all. Almost every green thing In this country and Europe was blasted with frost. Snow fell at Barnet, thirty miles from Lon don, England, on August 30. News papers received from England stated Sweet Hells Jangled Out of Tune." How much of woman's life happiness is lost for lack of harmony. A hundred sweet mciouious tones ruined by one little note of dU cord. Wo men who ought to en joy the per fect happi ness of love and wifehood and mother hood are mis. crable from one year's end to the other, be cause of some weakness or disease of the delicate organism of their sex. These delicate com 'plaints, which make a jangling dissonance of so many lives, are not by any means a necessity of womanhood. They may be overcome and completely eradicated under judicious-treatment. There is no need of repugnant examina. tions. There is no need of resorting to any unauthorized medicament compounded by an unskilled, uneducated person. Doctor PiTce's Favorite Prescription cures the troubles of the feminine organism posi tively, completely and safely. For nearly 30 years Dr. R. V. Pierce has been chief consulting physician of the In. valids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of buffalo. N.Y. He is nn eminent and expert specialist in this particular field of practice. Any woman may write to him with perfect confidence, and will receive, free of charge, sound, professional advice and suggestion for self-treatment by which 99 out of too cases of female complaint, even of the most obstinate kind, may be completely and per manently cured. Address him as above. "While I was living at Kagle Rock, Botetourt Co., Va" writes Mrs. O.

I advised her to get Dr. tierce's Favorite Prescription. The lady pur chased pne bottle and it cuted her daughter, Bhe was well and happy when I left there." Constipation is the all-embracing cause of ill-health. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure It They never gripo w 'A that 1816 would be remembered by the existing generation as the year In which thcro wns no Hummer. Very little corn ripened In New England. There was great prlvaton, and thousands of persons would have perished In .this country had It not been for tho abun dance -of fish and wild game. In direct contrast with 1S16 appears tho year 1827-28, when there was no winter. Captain Daniel Lyon, who died some years ngo In Burlington, Vt used to relate his experience In 1S27-2S. Ho was a walking encyclopaedia of lo cal events. He said: "I knew but ono senson when winter was almost llko summer, tho winter of 1827-28. I wns running tho steamboat General Green between Burlington, Vt., nnd Port Kent nnd Plattsburg, N. Y., and during tho year there was not a bit of Ico in tho whole lake from ono end to the other. Tho old Lake Chnmplnln Steamboat company hauled out the steamboats Phoenix nnd Congress, and hardly a bit of ico nppeared In Shclburnc Bay, near Burlington, during the winter. "The Phoenix had a new engine built In Albany, nnd the whole outfit had to bo carried from that city to Shel burne Harbor by teams through tho mud. At Mlddlebury, Vt., the mud wns more than a foot deep. The Phoe nix was rebuilt and ready to launch by January 15. January 18 was the day fixed for the launching, nnd 1 took over a largo party from Burlington on tho General Grce. The sun wns shin ing with the warmth of a July day.

"Do you not owo any ono anything?" asked the debtor. "No, blr, I am thankful to say I do not." "Then you can afford to wait," was the answer, ka tho customer walked away. Tld-Ults.
