BV AV KANDOUIt. "I am disappointed In ber,' aid Ilr- nest Vail, sadly. He was silting by Lid open stady win dow, with the jrf aaie of a great, old fashioned sweet-brier boh floating up, where the Ian res of the deiiciouj summer had piercvd its rreen rlooiu, and sent up an incense of subtle fragrance. Far off on the n plan Is the hay-makere were at work ; on the boab. of an apple tree be yond a catbird warbled it. meiiid-jous re frain. And Kev. Ernest Vail pushed away bis bocks tr.J paper?, and looked thoughtful cct oeer the lovely world. Men lay i generally a "tired day with clergymen. Mr. Vail fell the re action of hard work and fevered enthu siasm ; it was that, bat it was not alW gfti.tr that, which damped bis spirits and cat t;ie grave shadow over his countenance. !o you mean dlsap-poicted in Cora Ariien V said tb old doctor, who sel dota failed to comprehend the varying moods of Lis son's nature. "Of course I do." "Then you are doing her justice,' said the doctor, who had come in for a news paper, "s'ae U one of the sweetest little sir is in the worid, and one of the best.' "It is pflb!e," faid tbe young man, languidly. "Nevertheless, I am disap pointed in ber. I ilid u.y bet jeste day. I cjald feel, even while I spoke, the tlame ef my Master's altar burning with in me, the eiectric corrent of sympathy reaching from bear, to heart. And I a-l.eve the correlation tympat'niael with me m ith one accord, aa I spoke of the needs and requisitions of oar foreign mis&ioLs. The collection was most lib era! ; gold arf 1 lack-bills, even rings and lockets were jUed a pen the plate. Bat I sat where I coald not help seeing Cora's hand as she put ia ber offering."' "How roach was it?" "Only a ten-cent piece." "Don't be a fool, Ernest," said tha old d-vt'.'r. "I dare say it was all she could aJopL" " , "Nellie t-lls use tkai old Arden gave Cora a bandied dollars for a new black silk tire last week," returned Ernest ValL "Well, what then? She couldn't pat a dress into toe collection plate, coald sher "Bat the drees need net have been parehai-ed." "That is Cora's bussae, not yours, nor Nellie's" brjojueiy retorted Ir. VaiL "Very trne."sai 1 theyoting clergyaian. "Dut st:'.'. I am dappointed in ber." And the old gentleman went back to hisothce mattering: "I wish Nellie would mind ber own basinetis. I've set my heart on having Cora Arder for a daughter-in-law. And Ernest is jot whimsical and capricious enocyh to allow a mere trifle like thia to tarn the current of bis whole life." B-it if Ernest Vail coal 1 have been gifted with ubi'jaity and allowed to peer into the little room where Cora Arden was patiently sewing buttons on ber little brother's coats and troaeers, he would have seen some very genaine tears running down ber round, fresh cheeks. Mooes Arden sat opposite, knitting his brows darkly behind a newspaper. -It's al! nonsense," said he, graSfiy. "Foreign mission, indeed; we need a bonne miion a deal more. These cler gy men are always begging; it's their basinets. And if you really wanted te be geceroit, why, in the catoe of cotamon ?nse, didn't yoa take a part cf that black silk money "Becaose, uncle," said poor Cora, scarcely able to see the eye of the button she wm sewing on, "I bad ordered the dress." "Where is it V Cora was silent for a moment, and then she answered: "I give it to Mary Ward, uncle; she ia lo b. irju-ried, and she bad not a single silk dress ! I thought it was mine to do what I pleased with. I hope, uncle, yoa are not vexed T "Upon my word ! said Moses Ar den, with the slow tide or rising wrath dying his fice with crimson. "Too are the most eccentric yoang woman I ever saw in my life. Vexed ! Of what oae would it be for tue to be vexed? Of course, the dreaa was your own, to do with what yoa pleased. And it seem that yoa did. Now, I hope yoa are satis fied. But as to expecting me to keep yoa supplied with money for all the wedding outfits and foreign missions ia town, and everything else, why, I cant do it." And Mr. Ardea stalked out of the rOOTD. "Oh," cried Cora, in the anguish of her spirit, "I wish I could be independ ent." "Weil, try dear," said Fatlence Potter, the tiilore-w, who was ASFiatiog lath shaping and ratting oat of small suits; and why aren't yoa T "How is it possible V I,!I tell yoa," said Fatiencw Potter, -Mrs. Podley wants a help !" -A help r "About the housework, yoa knew," said Fatlence. "At tie Red House Eee torv. Yoa woald't have half so much to se EST A BT.TSTTKD 1827. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 21, 1891. do aa yoa bar. here, and you'd be treat ed a deal ctviler. Twelve dollars a month aad nothing to do bat help Mrs. Dud ley." Tre a great mini to try it," said Cora. ' "To be sore, it seems queer," reflect icgly added Patience Potter, "for Sniire Arden's niece, that has just given away a bondred-duilar silk dress, to go oat djicg housework. Bat, if yoa come to that, ain't the whole world full of discrepan cies V "Idan'tmind that," said Cora; "-but I mo$t have a little money of toy ow n." The tea-table at th Red Ifoise Rec tory locked very pretty, with its fresh blackberries, gulden costards, snowy rais ed biscuits, and gamkitre of verbenas and sweet geranium leaves. Mrs. ud ley, who was one of those overworked ministers" wives who are always ia a harry, looked adenirieg'y on. "How nicely yoa Lave done it, my dear!" said she. "I declare, I never thought that a few Sowers could bright en cp a table so ! Bat you're cot goicg T "Yea, I am, said Cora, intent on fast ening a creamy renebud io Mrs. Dudley's hair; "on less, indeed," with downcast eyes, "yoa want me to wait on the table. "Wait on the table indeed? What ooneeense r said Mrs. Dudley. As if yoa were a common ma;d-?ervast ! No certainly not! I want you to sit down with as, dear, and help the berries and cream ; and I should like to ictrodoce yoa to oar guest." "I woo kl rather take the baby oat in the garden while yoa are at tea." said Cora Arden ; "and the a yo2 can have a little chance to eat an J drink in peace." And she escaped out of one door with the bald-beaded hope of the house of Dadley ia ber anna, as Mr. Dudley came ia at the other, ushering the Reverend Ernest Vail 1 And in the midst of their theological converse, Mr. Vail chancel to look oct of the window, where, under e great branching apple tree, sat a fair young maiden showering roeea over the little one who lay crowing oa the grass at her side. "Who is that?" be asked, with a little start. "Oar new maid," Mrs Dudley answer ed complacently. "The sweetest girl yoa ever saw, a true lady by birth and edu cation, only locgiag to be independent." "Oh r said Mr. VaiL "And yoa call her " "Cora." "Indeed," said Mr. VaiL And be astonished his reverend brother by del ogicg with a fresh tide of ream the berries he had already plentifully cream ed. "And never left a drop for any oce else 1" Mrs. Dudley remarked afterw at J. "I think Mr. Vail muct be subject to fits of abstraction ! This wasia the middle cf the month. And at its close, a sealed envelope came to Mr. VaiL inclosing twelve dollars. And upon the oataide was written : "A mite for the missions." Ernest Vail held the envelope np dow a and cross-wiae, and clje'.y scrutinized the direction. "It is in a di.guised handwriting," he said to himself ; "but I thick nay, I am almosA sure it ia Cora Arden's way of making ier m's and curling the eu is of her e's." Just then his sister Nellie, the general geasip of the family came in. "I've fathomed the mystery of ?Jary Ward's magnificent bUck aiix drew," said site. "I thought she couldn't have siTurded it oat of her own pocket. Who do yoa think gave it to her'" "I am sure I do not know," said Er nest, rather listlessly. ' "Cora Arden. It seems the poor thing was crying over her meagre truiiseaa ; she has mamed an ambitious yr,ung law yer, and naturally desired to make a little show ia the city where she is going, and so Cora, in oae of her ruagnAaimoos! tits, bestowed the hundred-dollar silk upca her. Wasn't she a goose ?" "I am not so certain of that," said ti e Reverend Ernest Vail, with softened voiee and kindliag eyes. "Perhaps she thinks with us that "it is more biea-d to give than to receive." A week afterward, Miss Arden blxsh icgly confided to Mrs. Iu 3!ey the fact that she could not reuuia at the Red Croat Rectory beyond thecurr-ct month. Mrs. Dudley burst into tears. "My dear," said she,"I cant spare yoa." "But you'll have to," said Cora. "Of all overworked drudg?r." sobbed the poor lady, "a minister's wife is the most" "Oh, hush, hush ." cried Cora. "Do not say that, dear Mrs. Dudley, for I'm going to be a minister's wife myself." And the very first post-nuptial gift that the Reverend Ernest Vail bestowed upon his wife was a black silk dress, the coun terpart, in every respect, of the one she had given poor Mary Ward.

The State hould not hesitate to enact such laws as are essen tial to its stability and the welfare cf its citizens. If the State is deper.dent utn education, such dependence moat be evinced by a Compulsory School Law, by Uking from the individual the unlaw ful right not to educate. Ed oration is the pillar of the State, an-i to maie e-ir.ca-tKs a voluntary set ef the individual is to surrender the very principles of gov ern meot. Lrnorance is the mcther of crime ; so history testilles ; from it issues those evils which, if it were to become universal would subvert and extirpate government itself. As ignorance augments, the strength cf State declines. Nurture ignorance, and you encourage anarchism. The Siale has an unquestionable right to enact a law which will remove an evil that threatens ili stability ; it has a right to employ all legitimate means for self-protection ; if 1 . . f. ' elucation is a necessity to the preserva tion of true government, it shoclu be compelled Icy tbe State, and not left to the option of the individaaL The State has no moral right to trans fer the power, which it should exerciae, to the discretion of the ialividiiil ; the lack of a eompoLsory school law invests the individual with power which should b.' centered in the State; it leaves the in dividaal to determine whether ignorance or intelligence shall pre'aiL The boo- i provision of a compalsory school law in volves the maintenance of avenues for the subsistence of isno ranee ; it signifies a provision for the perpetuation of im morality and crioje of every gradation. There is a large illiterate element in oir Sute ; aa element disposed not to edu cate. The Sute, by not enacting a com pulsory school law, authorizes and sanc tions such non-education, notwithstand ing its dependence upon education. Bui there is aa individual who is not in sym pathy with the pu&lic schools ; the State says to hiin, I will support and protect yoa in your antagonism, by permittieg yoa to exercise Use power and right not to educate. Pope says, " worth makes the man," bat what makes worth ? Sure ly not the State that toieraUs impenetra ble recesses for ignorance. The State that directly or indirectly sustains ignorance fters disloyalty and nurtures crime. Does not the Sute. by the non-provion of a compulsory school law, approve and sustain ignorance ? Would it not be ad vantageocs, both to the Sute and to its subjects, to employ ample means far the p-reventioa rather than for tbe punish ment of crime ? Education is the safe guard of life, liberty, character and prop erty. The State should have :r it aim anl function the presrsation of.these, rather tiiaa the puaUhment of infractioa upon thern, and, therefore, ougnt to de vote its energy to the maintenance of the safeguard which caa only be efTtaily done by the enacting of a compulsory school law. Every child is. and should be, regarded as a component part cf i. State, not merely by i s liability to pen ishmer.t, if found vkiating its laws, but by beiiig placed nnder the care of the State, to be brought in a eon Jltion to dis criminate fairly between the right and the wrong. The mother who faactions and so Jers her children to be brought up in neglect and crime, Las lo riht l pun ish tfaetn for doing wrong. The Sute that tolerates and indirectly approves its subjects to be bnught cp in neglect and igaoraace, shod hive no power to pan-! . . I . . ,. r is'3 them forcriminalitr. There are incentives to evil which the Sute a one has tiie power and should re move. The sute has not failed to pro vide millions of dollars for paaishcaent ; the enacting of a Com palsory School La wbl be a provisioa for prevention it will signify Sute economy. If it is to the supreme interest of the Sute aad to the interest of all families to have their children educated, should not such means be employed as will necessitate and com pel such education ? But we are tret by the alleged argn.-neaU that a Compulso ry School Lw is essentially un-American aad that it interferes with the tights aad liberty of parents. What is brae Americanism ? Does it consist in the toleration and perpetuation of aa evil which is incompatible with the very priociple of Temocracy ? Does the spirity of a Republican form of government demand that igaoracce, the source of anarchism shall be main tained? It is true Americanism for the Sute to permit ia subjects to nun a fact-ire weapons to undermine iu sUbiLity ? Is it Republicanism for the Sute indi rectly to license iu subjecu to commit every variety of crime ? Does the State that invests the individual with the right not t edacate granf such license ? Does true Americanism involve the perpetua tion of the soaree of disloyalty ? " A Compulsory School Law is essentially nn-American." Is it on-American for the Sute to provide a measure necessary for self protection ? Is it un-Americaa for the Sute to re move the source of unnecessary expendi tures and exorbitant Uxations ? Is it an tagonisti: to the spirit of Democracy for the .-ute to enact a law which will be to the interest and benefit of every citizen ? The State has an incontrovertible right to 1 demand loyalty of every subject ; hence would it be co-American for it to enact law which will compel that which is in dispensable to loyalty ? If the State has a rght to demand loyalty, how does the provision of a law necessary to loyalty become essentially nn-American? A Compulsory School Law does not inter fere with tiie rights and liberty cf par eats. A parent has no riant to LriE2 00 his children in ignorance, to expose them to the blighting L&ilaenee of corrupt as-1 e 1 sociaiioas, to become a bass to society and a enrse tc the State. The State Las claims cpon them and those claims justly demand that they be educated. Again, compcisory education does not interfere wit a the liberty of parent. What is trse liberty ? Doea it consist ia debsarherr and crime? Does it involve ti4taa iadividual has aa nnvioestionable to . !lbertiae or bandit ?

Is it detrimental to aa individuals liberty to prevent hiin from the use of weapjes which are intended to ruia himself both temporarily and spiritu ally ? Compulsory education signifies liberty. Voluntary education con: prises servitude. It denotes slave of tyrants more nnoon ijuerabie than any that were to be found ia Pgan Rome. No compulsory educa tion involves that youth is to be squan dered ; the acquisition of thoe vagrant habits attendant cpon idleness, termina ting in a fearful misery of crime and out rage, " Shall education become universal T is a question that remains to be solved by legislation. There are many homes where ignorance predominates and in those homes vice supremely reiges, vul garity prevails, crime exists. The parent , " ... , . . , . has n ambition or desire to have his children educated : and if sent to school at ail they come having previously im bibed habits cf disorder, end when sub jected to requisite school government the teacher is calumniated or tried at law, the children are Uien out of schoL enceor aged ia their rebellion and they go 00, becoming more debased and degraded, aad finally they commit the snort terrible oatragfis in the category of crime, simply because the state permits mistaken par eats a-Jt to allow the proper restraint of school government to be duly enforced.
