SOMERSET,
TrK.1I0 OVER HIE SEW LEAF.
The year begin. 1 tarn a leaf
All over writ with jfood rcfolvel;
KaeU to fulfill wUl be in chief
My aim while earth Hi ronnd rerolve.
How many a leaf I've turned before,
And tried to make the record true
laieb. year a wreck on tiine'i dull ihore
Troved much I dared, but little knew.
Ah, brtKht resolve ! How high yon bear
The future's hopeful standard on ;
How brave you start, bow poor you wear !
How soon are faith and court je jon.
Yon point to deeds of sacrifice.
You faun the path of careless ease;
Lentil and wooden shoes ? Is this
The fare a hutna soul to pleate f
What wonder, then, if men do full.
Where good Is ever all austere :
Where vice is fair and pleasant all.
And turn the leaf to lead the year?
V! still oace more I turn the leaf,
Aud moaa U alk ti.1 bejter way;
I strujfilc with old unbelief.
And strive to rcaeh the perfect day.
Why should the road that leads to hcaren
lie all one reach of sterile sand 7
Why not. just here and there, be given
A rota to oiwfc the .Jr?7 lanJT
iiut why r. pine J )(beri have tsod,
With s..rer feet and heavier sins.
Their painful pathway toward Ow! :
JJy lili-jniae anew begins.
Fal'ure au-l tailafe, I.Jtherto,
Has time inscribed upon my leaves i

at forty-five did be make tbc discove

At fifty-live be woke to the con-'iou.-noB-tbat
be bad waated lift).
He was Jvery clever at every point
in tbe common law of tbe Untcr
wubl, but be was uot wise enough
to know tbat at tbat age one can
hchrcely begin life over again.
If onart from the law be ever bad
a pbkkion, it v a a quiet, balf-doubtful
love of fitfbing; aud, therefore, when
be gave up bis judgeship, and retired
iuto private life with tbe respect and
!even vent ration of all who knew
j him, baving angled half his life for
s client., and settled tbe differences of
"i other K-o-al amrlers through nearly a
.score of year?, be fell to angling for
fish ns ibe one joy of his life.
Iudeed, it was this new occupa
tion, amidst nature, trees, flowers aud
living water which prompted M'"re
Seiler to the conclusion that be bad
made a mistake ia life when be
brought it down to the grinding of
law from New Year's day to St.
Sylvester's, which is tbe la?t day in
December.
Tbe old man's heart wo desolate.
His quiet, resigned oil housekeeper
(a sad bpinster who had thrown her
self into the pathetic and tears early
in life) Maitre Seiler found, now that
he saw sky and forest daily, to be
j quite a wearisome woman; ana tbe
consequence was that Maitre Seiler
would pack up his fibbing wallet,
witb a crust and flask of white wine
! for his lunch, and go out from six in
the morning until sunset.
One (Jay, having caught trout un
til he was weary of unhooking them,
and the afternoon being dose (it was
a warm April tbat year), he fell
i asleep under a whispering fir tree,
anj there be slept the sound sleep of

I When he sat up and rubbed bis
eyes he found that the sun bad set,
! and that be himself was rather stifler
! in tbe limbs than was comfortable.
The voice came nearer, and through
a break in tbe glade be saw a moun
taineer girl spinning as sb came
slowly forward, followed by two or
three browsing goats.
Tbc girl was about sixteen ; her
yellow, light, wavy Iiair was drawn
to tbe back of the bend, and there
fell in two long, red ribbon-tied
plaits, while the black bodice and
poppy-colored kirt completed a far
more charming picture than any tbe
old judge bad seen in court through
ail his legal years.
He siehed lightly. j
She stopped and looked about ;
' but she showed no fear,
j "Don't be afraid," be said, gently.
Tbe girl smiled as she saw tie
j pleasant old gentleman, and said:
"Oh, no ; and Rruttlewart and Mich-

j "Rut a turn, mcssire, in tbe pith,

"Why, wbo have we bere?" asked
the forester, looking out from the

f.cni tbe living floor of his. forest
j home to the ground.
j "Good even, Veri; thy daughter

late judge of tbe "canton. Hast so
soon forgotten me ?"
"He! Tis Messire Seiler!" cried
the forester, dofBDg bis hat, and hur
raing down the steps.
" "1 fell asleep," said tbe old judge,
lot-king yet upon Lotte ; "and though
I am still as active as a roe, I did not

ESTABLISHED, 182
PA WEDNESDAY,
Tbe good wife Kristiuo now cotn -
ing lorin witn a welcome, tnese lour
people shut out trie evening after en
tering tbe forester's house, and Lotte
and her mother fell to work prepar
ing supper. -
The red checked coarse white
cloth was soon upon the table, the
wooden spoons and platters laid, and
tbe big tureen, lively with a pattern
of wild flowers' was ready for the
soup.
Not much of a meal but plaiu
soup, tbe beef which made it eaten
with vinegar and oil, black bread
aud strong chepse, the whole cashed
down witb some blackish country
wine yet the old judge thought he
never had eaten such a meal.
To tell the truth at once, the old
juP W83 in, jove with l("tte, though
she was only sixteen and the old
gentleman was be that time fifty
eight, if a day.
"I lay me, good judge, you will
slffP tii! lt !' tbe morning." said
broadchested Yerl,.whfn they were
saying good-night.
"Ubf qo," replica the judge, wiah.
ug to cut a good figure before Lotto ;
"1 never was more active than I am
now. I shall be up with tbc lark,
and out before any of you."
Nevertheless, though they softly j
called him three times, he never j
woke, and, in fact, did not present him-:
self until the furoster'a breakfast had
been walling a whole hour.
The forest girl had been out and
away for hours, and as he saw her,
with the fresh morning color on her
face, aud holding out to him a bunch
of wild flowers which she had gather.
eJ, he decided tbat a pretty girl
looked better at sunn.-e even than
by sunset.
I bat was tbe beginning oi it.
ThP prini housekeeper wondered
what became of her master, until all
capacity for astonishment bad' left.
while good len and bis wife, though
they were wonderfully benefited and
honored by tbe old judge's friend
ship, were marvelously puzzled to find
an answer to the riddle why Maitre j
Seiler came to their but four or five!
tims in tbe wecK.
Que day a barrel of rikvir capita!!
wine In tboae parts wouia be ient :
with MaitreiSeiler's compliments, and
within a week an admirable present
of sausage would be received. i
Tbe gravest condemnation of the
poor old judge, and the best proof of
the boncstv of the Id couple, Veri ,
and Kristine, were to bo found ia the
fact that the latter never suspected
lie real basis of ll" those civilities
on the part of the emittea old gen
tleman. "
As for trout, the good woman.
Kristine was weary of cooking it, .
so much of that fish did the good old
judge bring to the chalet.
He never said much to Lotte, ppoke
like a father to bet, and certainly
never enabled tbe pretty girl to guess
what was in bis heart. ''
This life went on to the end of
June, when the tall mountain jrrass
was ready for the scythe.
Tbe old judge, however, had never
slept at Veri's "except upon thai one
particular night when he first visited
the forester.
He did not know that he had been
put in Lotte's room he supposed it
the guest's chamber.
Rut upon tbat particular night in
June he had made up bis mind to
speak to Veri, and then it was that
bo found that, judge and orator as he
was, he could not plead for himself.
"What ails the old judge to-night ?"
thought tbe forester. "He doej not
seem himself.
The time went on, and when at
last the jadge decided that be would
defer it until tbe morning, the fores
ter made tbe discovery that it was
dark, and the moon would not be op
for two hours, so the judge was in
vited to stop for the night.
He had no idea that his remaining
put the primitive family to any incon
venience, no more tban at tbe mo
ment be learned tbat he took Lotto's
room from her.
Rut, ia fact, the voung goat-herd-
ess whs carried off to her mother's
room for the night, while the forester
made himself up a bed of furs, Ac,
on the ground of the living room.
He thought the girl looked pale
and anxious, bnt he could not detect
tbat she was in deep tribulation.
A little while and the forest hot
was quite quiet not a light to be
seen.
Now, they have a habit iu parts of
Switzerland of cutting the high grass
by moonlight, tbe belief being com
mon that grass so cut made better
Lay than that which falls beneath tbe
scythe in sunlight.
Tbe old judge, unable to sleep, was
turning over in his mind what he
should say on tbe following day to
tbe forester, when be beard tbe tinkle
of cow-bells, tbe lumbering of heavy
wagons, and tbe rattle of talking and
singing voices, all of which gradual
ly approached.
Not ignorant of the custom of
moonlight haymaking, tbe old judge
found tbe rustic sounds rather sooth
ing tban not, when he thought he
beard a tapping at tbe window.
He listened, nd the sound was re
peated.
He knew that the window was tea
or twelve feet from the groand, and
that it could only be reached either
by a ladder or by climbing tbe vine
which grew on tbe wall about 'tbe
lattice. "
A thief? What thief would tap
at a window? What could a thief
hope to steal in that poor place, un
less The old judge's heart began to
beat high.
And as though in reply to his
iV,rvnil,ta . at St nUaiint vnirm a1I-
d. as the tapping was heard again.
"Lotte!''
He moved off the bed (for he bad . oriC'es in tbe sides of their bodies,

aad extremely handsoaie youth was
clinging to the vine, bis bright eyes
eagerly fixed upon the window.-
The old judge silently opened the
lattice; there was a low, bright
laugh, aad the young man leaped
litheiy and blithely into the room.
"And whom have we here?" sud
denly cried the judge, pouncing npon
the intruder.

"'tis exuttly' o, nies.-!ie, I nni

"Mcsire Seiler, thou art n-.t well,"
cried tin; forester.
"Nay; belter than yejterility. Ry

have something to say to thee. It is
this I waut tby consent to a mar

Tbe forester teat Lis band upon

the good wife clapped her hands.
"-ever. saU lie ; " lis a rare

Lotte looked at the judge mean
ingly, and said : "I do in-t hate, hjn,
father."
"Then ''tis scti'id," said Vtri.
So the old judge went home weari
ly, a gad !er and a wiser man. The
forester Veri won tiered why tho
old judge never came, while tbe pres
ents werejseut a before, and the mel
ancholy housekeeper marveled that
her master gave up fishing.
Seiler vas happy, but never a word-
said be. Not even once agaiu did he
go to the hut in the forest, and be
benefited by the lesion' he learned
that youth is for youth, and that if

The Tacific railroad had hardly
been thought of then, and around
Laramie the "reds were thicker and
more ferocious than fleas around a
pig sty."
Old "Riossom" was sent off one
day with five or six companions after
wood, and the party were attacked
by twenty Indians.
