AVHRUSH'S SONG.
BV AOM.S T. HOl sTON.
It was the close of a midsummer after,
noon, and there were few travelers on a
country road leading from the drowsy
little town of llailowell. A winding,
6tony road it was, but it led over pictur
esque bridges and clear rivers, througa
woods that were dark and cool, and fra
grant w ith the breath cf pines, out aain
past comforlable f.irm-hoa.-es, and eud
deuly up steep hilis from whose t. jsa
charging landscaje was visible.
Tbe air was ciear ami full of a certain
bracing quality that makes Maine a de
lightful scjourniug place iu summer.
.So at least it seemed to Mark Hough
ton, ad he breathed the air of his native
.State for the first lime in twenty-live
years. He had purposely left, his coin
ing unannounced that he might enjoy
the luxury of a walk over the old road,
w hose every scene had once been so fa
miliar to him.
Memory plays strange pranks with the
most strait-laced of us at times, aud as
suredly it was only her uiH.-ic ibat made
ttiis Near York lawyer enjoy a dusty
country walk for auld lang syne.
A sudden turn and he came upon the
little school kouse, j:iat w here it used to
stand, aud but little changed in outaard
look Dy the inevitable wear and tear of
years.
'lt holds its ow n better than I had
hoped," thought the lawyer, and moved
by a rudden impulse he turned from the
road and went up to the door. It was
hot locked, and in a moment he stood in
side. Here he sow numerous changes
that altered Uie aspect of the place.
Oesks and seats of a more modern
style replaced the rude benches Le re-
mem bered, and the wails were covered
with blackboards and maps. Walking
over to the teacher's chair he sat down
and thoughtfully regarded the little room
which had the desolate look peculiar to
empty school-rooms.
Here he had learned his tirst lessons
in days that returned to bis memory only
in fiaguieuts and half-remembered inci
dents. Here, as he grew to be a larger
lad, he had w restled w ith many a "knot
ty" example, or surreptitiously planned
frolics for recess.
He recalled, too, some of his boyish
day-dreams of "great things to do by and
by," and smiled baif bitterly as he con
trasted them with the prosaic, self-centred
life of his after years.
Then there were tbe later days when,
as a young collegian, he came back to
spend his vacation, and taught the little
school himself to help meet expenses at
college. What a hu u bruin life it was, to
be sure, sitting there through the long
summer days and hearing toe rural lads
and lassies stum ble through their lessons !
What a stupid lot of pupils they were
ail but one of them.
And here Mark Houghton came chron
ologically to the thought that had been
running w ith more or less self assertion
ail through his musings, tbe thought of
Leah Hastings. She was the brightest cf
his older pupils, and ba4 even shared
w ith him some of the studies he was try
ing to "make np"during the summer.
But it was not as his pupil that he re
membered Leah, it w as as the gay and
light-hearted yet womanly girl, with her
great, serious eyes and frank smile.
A curious mixture she was indeed,"
thought the lawyer. "Our love seems
like some faraway dream, eouie bright
idyL I wonder, if we bad not quarreled,
how she would have chanred ur life.
with her high ideals and happy nature? '
A slight sound at the open door start
lrd him ; he turned his head and saw a
woman standing there, half hesitating,
on the threshold.
"I beg your pardon," 6he began, "I
thought" but something familiar in the
man's face stopped her.
As for him he knew from tbe first mo
ment that it was Leah Hastings. With
all the change that time had wrought in
her and they were not few he could
not mistake that long remembered face.
In a moment, she, too, recognized him,
doubted fully at first, but w itb a growing
certainly in her face as she studied him.
He realised with some satisfaction that
he had the advantage of her in self-pos
session, since she could have had no
thought of seeing him, while tbe meet
ing was to him quite within tbe realm of
possibilities when he arrived in Maine.
"Well, Miss Hastings, " he began, "this
is indeed an unexpected pleasure. Who
could have thought that yours would be
the first familiar face I should see on toy
return to the old place ?"
Ache spoke be ad vanced towards her,
ESTABLISHED 1827.
holding out his hand. She put hers in
it, saying composedly:
"Am 1 indeed, the first? Your coming
is unexpected, then."
"You do not say yoa are glad to wel
come me back. Bat I remember that
yoa never would be conventional," he
said, taking a subtle pleasure in the con
fusion which he could see she was trying
hard to conceal.
But those fe r words, half in mockery,
half in challenge, pnt Leah at her ease.
Looking him directly in the face, she re
sponded :
"Why should we be expected to wel
come people whom we have long learned
to lie? without, and-whom we never ex
to see again? It is like the sudden stop
ping of a train ; it gives you a backward
jerk that is not altogether agreeable."
"True," he answered, rather sadly, "I i
suppose I've lost all claim to anyone s in
interest down this way. I only hope my
brother won't think so, Lx, when I walk
in on him unannounced."
There was a moment's silence. Mark
looked at the woman before him, notic
ing the changes in her. The beauty of
nineteen bad faded, but enough of it yet
remained to make, with .the added
strength and character of later years, a
face that was attractive. '
"I said 'Miss Hastim!,'" began the
lawyer again. "Was I right, or hate you
laid aside the old name with other relics
of the paat?"
There was the faintest possible flush
on her cheek as she answered :
"I have kept my name with my uncon
vantionality.' "I have fallen into quite a reverie, as I
sat here, over old scenes and faces. Ik
you recollect the first day I taught school
here, and what a peck of trouble those
little towed-headed Briggfl children gave
me? It was a long struggle, but I sub
dued them before the end of the term.''
Hewenton reflectively and in an in
different tone, as if he werk talking to
some one else:
"There was another pupil, though, w ho
gave me more trouble than any of them
and whom I never fully conquered.
What a little flirt you were, anyway,
Iah !"
"Yoa know I never was that," she
Si.id, gravely.
"Well, no, to do you justice, yoa wern't.
I believe you really thought you were in
earnest for awhile. Yes, I'll do yoa the
justice to think you deceived yourself as
well as me."
His tone was more serious now and he
glanced furtively at Leah to see how she
w as taking his words. But she remained
silent, nor could he read her thoughts in
her lace.
"Leah," he began, abruptly, "I wish
you would explain your action there at
the last I never could see why and now,
after all these years, I should just like V
have it cleared up. Won yoa listen to
my side and teil me yours 7"
For a few moment's she did not reply,
but stood looking off over the hills, where
the sun was ju.t sinking from aigbL
"What is the nse?" she said at last.
"It is all over longago, an.l we have come
loan age where we can overlook and
forgive without explanations. We both
misunderstood and misjudged each other
of that I have Ions been sure. It it
rest at that."
' But I cannot be content with that I
thought I had put it all out of my life,
I-eah. It has been a busy life, and I
have taken care that I should have but
little time for thoughL I schooled my
self io keep ail thought of you from my
mind, and for the most part I have suc
ceeded. 1 thought I could go on to the
end but now that I see you again the

Leah, I can't believe but that yoa care
yet, too. Let us rectify our mistakes and
end our lives as wwshould have lived
them togeth2r !"
"No, no," she Said, putting out her
hands as if to push the thought away.
"It is too late. We have been learning
to live alone. We have each made our
own life and found a certain happiness
in it. It is too late to make a change.
What have our lives in common yours,

By some trick of fancy Mark Houh
ton remembered at that instant that it
was at this door they had first told their
loves. That was at sunset, too, and not
far away a brown thrush was singing his
joyous vesper song.
"You will thank me for what I have
said when yoa get back to New Ytirk,"
L?ah continued, her voice trembling a
little, but her eyes looking steadily into
his.
And in his heart he felt that she was
right right at least as to the difficulty of
welding their tit o lives into one. But
for a while he continued to urge her to
reconsider. She only shook her head
and said gently :
"It is too late. We must not add to
our folly by making a greater mistake
than that of our youth."
At last lie turned to go.
"I hope I shall feel one day that yoa
are right," he said. "Good-by."
At that moment a brown thrush on a
tree top near by broke out into a flood
of melody. He sang as joyously as if all
the world were young and the only natu
ral conditions were happiness.
At tbe sound Leah turned her head
with a startled look of lecollection. Her
eyes met Mark's.
"It is not to late, Leah !" he cried,
catching her hand. "Listen! our old
frierl advises as just as he did the first
time love and be happy ! There is
time enough yet, is ther-j not?"
And some way she could no longer
find it in her heart to say ' No." Sex

Fighting a Groutd Hog.
Just about "groundhog iay," which
all well-informed people know to be
Feb. 2, a New Jersey farmer heard a
flock of crows making a big fuss in a field
near the woods. The farmer investigat
ed and found the cause of their disturb
ance to be a ground hog looking for
something to eat For some reason the
crows resiented the appearance of the lit
tle animal and assailed him on every
side w ith sharp beaks and claws. s As
good luck would have it, the groundhog
was near his hole, and in he w ent in a
Lurry.
His sudden disappearance caused sur
prise and consternation anions; the crows
and for'a time they flew around wildly.
Then they held a council, with the re
suit that two old crows flew to the top of
w rait leuce a lew leei irouj me uuuus
as sentinels, while the others flew some
r e r e . I - v. .. . 1
distance away.
Ten minutes elapsed and then the
groundhog reappeared. Instantly the
sentinels cawed the signal, and the main
army came flying, but the animal was
too quick and dodged into his ho ne.
The exasperated crows immediately
fell to work, and in the course of 13 min
utes plugged cp the hole with dirt and
stones. Then they indulged in a chorus
of exultation and were having a joyous
time when one old crow gave a terrible
caw of rage.
He had discovered the groundhog sit-
ting on a knoll 00 feet away, having
emerged from the other end of his bur
row.
Then there was another council of war,
and the farmer expected to see another
attack, but it soon became evident that
the crows were disheartened, and after
awhile they arose as one bird and with a
few faint hearted caws flew to the woods
and disappeared, thus acknowledging
that the groundhog was smarter than
they. G'jlltn Lm.

One day the attraction cf gravitation
was under discussion and Charley Bi ale
voluuUercd the (pinion that he "didn't

"It seems to me,'' said Charley, "there's

and made New ton think out the reason
why, that apple might just as well have
stayed where it waj till somebody gath
ered it."
"You play ball, don't you?" ask the
teacher.
"Yes'rn."
"Supp.se you hit the ball very high,
what happens?"
"It falls."
"Bat if ther were no attraction to
ward the earth, it wouldn't fall. I iu't
you think tlilt might prove inconven

His eyes were bright with the light cf a
new idea.

Bill Flicker as a Calliope.
"One of the most singular men I ever

' came was Bill Flicker, and his singu.ari-
j ty lay in his voice ; he was the loudest

body when he talked, and if he talked
at night he always woke up the animals.
This once came very near gettimrus iafo

at a little child w ho had approached too

done this in the world if he had not
been made irritable by being kept awake
nights hearing Bill talk. There were
times when we thought we would have
to get rid of Bill, but he was a good
hearted man, and he did twice as much
work as anybody else, and so we kept
him, and the time caiue when we were
very glad we dil. Our steam calliope,
one of the first ever used, was a great at

as a leading feature of the street parade
and it pleased the people immensely. We
were at that time in the far west In
those days there was in every far west
ern town a considerable number of in
tensely emotional people who were al
ways s-irc to make a great row if tilings
didn't go to please them. While we
were in one of these towns our calliope
broke down and the engineer was una

in trie pr-vession, but the people were so
j enraged U not hearing it play that t.iey

A Story of General Butler.
John B. Elder, who recently returned
from atrip to New Orleans, while speak-
ing of General Benjamin F. Batler the
other day told the following story :
"Butler is stiil heartily hated tiiere,
but the hatred is not universal. I have
even heard some native Louisianians
speak well of him, and there are a num
ber of local anecdotes concerning him
that have not been in print that show
that now and then he even went out of
his way to do a gracious act.
"Among those who had reason to
change their views of Butler was a
wealthy Creole named Ma-pereau, A snar
merchant and baoker. He did not if
into the army, but his sympathies were
w ith the sniu.'i.
"When Butler took possession, Maspe
reau was greatly alarmed ab,ut his por
table pro;rty. He had a great quanti
ty of silverware which hal been in the
fa-i!y through several generations. His
sisters also were well supplied w ith this
metal.
"Maspereau was afraid of raiders, and
packing up all of hlssil.'er, together w.th
that of his sisters, put it on board ves
sel to ship it for safety to New York.
"fhis came to the ears of Batler. The
vessel was not permitted U) sail, and
Maspereau was sent for. He entered the
presence of Bdtier in fear and trembling.
Butler in a steru voice asked why Le
was sending his plate away, and Masper
eau told him for safety, as he didn't think
it secure in New Orleans.
"Yoa take that silver to the custom
house,' said Butler. 'It shall never be
said that property is sent out of New
Orleans for safety while General Bailer
is in command of this place."
"Maspertao, who tul.l me this, said
that he did so, an i ihe silver was take
care of and returned to him w hen quiet
was restored." InluuuttJ,i .'. -
