He is silent, vraiting for her reply.
He will not look at her. for her beauty
dazzles, almost drives him wild with
Ius.-ion.-ite love and longing. He lias
vorh:ied her, adored her as loyal fcnigut
cii:;l:t worship his queen of love and
lx-auty. Down in his heart of hearts her
iinaire has lived through every instant of
the tierce campaign and reigns there
now, rebel againi-t it as he may Her
silence daunts him. If he had thought
to pi.jue or trap her into questioning, it
was unworthy of his love and iier. tier
little hands are clasping now. Siie has
started, raised her head, is listening in
tently. AlisorbeJ only in her, in his
love, in his wrongs, Brewster has lust all
-ar for the thrilling, martial music
growing fainter and fainter down the
s-troet, br.t the look in her sweet face
startl--s h":m. The color has fled. The
dark eyes are dilating. One little hand
is uplifted, as if to ward off any other
sound. Dome on the night wind the

her agaiu as now she leans breathless
sigaiust the casement listening to the
t-ame sad, sweet, tearful old soug:
Love not, !ove not, ye hapless sons of clay!
One instant only she stands trembling
there, then a great sob surges op iu her
throat, and, burying her face in tier
bauds, she bursts away, she runs she
knows not whither. Out into the de
serted corridor, along the carpeted aisle

brightly lighted, she spies the elevator,
and, with the leap of hunted hare to its

blessing the fates that had carried off
the attendant for a surreptitious look at
the departing regiment With quick de
cision Curly pulls the starting rope, and
when the car has glided softly upward
just half way to the next floor checks its
motion, then springs to her side. Never
till that instant had he known the full
misery of a crippled aud useless arm.
"Winifred, sweet one, listeur he cries,
seizing a slender wrist and striving to
draw her hand away, as, sobbing, she
crouches in the corner of the cage, while
his brave young heart is thumping with
a joy and exultation it never knew te
forc. His blue eyes are aflame with
love and gladness.
"Listen! Don't cry so! 1 must tell
yon."

vator belL She springs to her feet, sti
fling her sobs, conquering her womanly
weakness.
Oh. do let nie cr.tr she cries, dash
ing away the Sears.
"1 won't," he answers, with such a
joyous, teasing triumph in his deep
tones. "Though a million men a miu
ute ring that bell, I'll never let you go
now uever. Yon cruel, wicked, heart
less girl, you sent me away"
"Oil, do let me out, Mr. Brewster'"
she pleads. "Indeed you must. U-r
r-r-r-riug. There's that awful bell
again."
"You sent me away," he calmly con
tinue, while his eyes dance and gleam
"utterly miserable because of your cold
liess and constraint. You knew I wor
shiped the very ground yon stood upon
You knew I loved yon better than any
thing in the wide world" (li-r-r-r-r r

"I must go," she pleads, struggling
hard to free the hand he has clasped
Oh, do. Mr. Brewster."

laughs low. (R-r-r-r-r-r- B-r-r-r-r-ring!)
Til put yon out on any floor you wish,
when you have said just two words."
"Oh, quick! Do let me go!" and she
makes a frantic lnne at the staining
rope, Imt t.o late. His daring arm is
around her now. ITot aa but on-.',
'id that has enfolded r.nd drawn hT
close to his breast. The clatter f the
b.'ll is deafening. "Oh. please," she
jmiruuirs. straggling i:i vain and glanc
ing up ia his glorified face.
"Xot until you say, 'Yes, Carroll.'
.Now, quick! Winifred, do yon love me,
just a little';" No answer. Head liowed
again, aud now on the only available
resting place. (B-r r-r- B-r-r-r-r-r- B-r-r-r-r-ring!)
"I can't hear," he laughs
low and jiyously, and the 1 loud head

"Louder, please. Miss Berrien." Oh,

Oh, please, let me go! Yes, yes!
yes! if I must." And then the bell
rattles madly, but nnavailiitgly, and for
the instant neither hears. For the in
stant she can speak no more, for the soft,
red lips are sealed.
Two minutes later, as that brightly
Iightel car glides down and cotues to a
stop at the parlor flixir, a flashed and
wrathful yonth confronts the tall cav
alryman who calmly stops forth as
though on air and holds out a warning
hand.
"Y'onng man, if over 1 hear of yon
quitting your post again and allowing a
novice to get caught ln-tween floors,
you'll get into trouble. It's lncky for

Curly Brewster, waving a brown tele
i,T:.ph envelope over his head, has shoul
dered Lis way into the crowd aud jj
making for the car. "Wants another
goodby word, 1 suppose," growls Ridge
wav to himself, in deep disgust, yet
comforted with the thought that the
train will be off in a moment, leaving
Brewster behind. Far forward a bell
liegins to ring, the steam to hi1; the
couplings of the box tars jerk and
strain; the horses snort and stamp in
their wooden cages; the motion reaches
the rear of the train, and the Pullman
leaps forward with sudden start, then
settles into slow, gentle glide along the
polished rails.
"Tumble off, Brewster!" shouts Ridge
way in feverifch anxiety. "You'll be car
ried away if yon flon't-"
"Shut np. Ridge," whispers Randolph
nnsymputhetically. "He's carried away
fur g.md. It's you that's left."
"Why, hello! here's Brewster!" booms
the major as he enters the sunshiny car,
when at last the crowded station has
faded from view. "Thought yon were
ordered to Washington, lad? Changed
your mind, eh? What, Bereugaiia,r'
"Be quiet, Dick," whispers his smil
ing wife, "He haf n't changed his mind.
Neither has Winifred."
But Iloldeu is uot the only one of the
Pawnee party who remains. Sergeant
Ellis has a furlough to visit Louisville,
aud is to take the train thither. In his
cavalry uniform he was at the station
to see his comrades safely started, and
the last cheers of the troopers were for
him as he stood with kindling eye and
flushing cheek, the center of a crowd of
curious citizens. As the train disappears
around the distant curve Holden touches
his shoulder.
"At noon, EihT
"At noon, sir,"t thepreu-.pl response;
and the sergeant recovers himself and,
springing to attention, raisvs l-.S hand in
salute. Holden smiles.
"I fancy that's about the last time
you'll be doing that sort of thing," he
6.iys significantly.
"You may rest ' assured that the im
pulse will remain, doctor. It is the out
ward rign of an inward resjiect that
everyday has only served to strengthen."
At noon Holden is at the hotel with a
carriage, and Ellis, transmogrified, a de
cidedly distinguished bxiking civilian,
steps forth from the vestibule and joins
the doctor.
"To' Warren L. Guthrie's office," is
the brief order, and the carriage rolls
rapidly away.
"Mrs. Holden is with Miss Guthrie
now," says Holden, after a moment's
silence. "As yet she is to be told noth
ing as you desire; but should we hear
favorably as to the commission before
our return to Pawnee?" he asked tenta
tively. "No, doctor. If we meet again it
must be as I was, not what this cam
paign has made me."
"What you have made yourself, man!
D n't talk of it in that way. The Lord
made yoa a gentleman. You made
yov.rscif a soldier."
Eilis smiles.
"A gentleman des-pite night prowling
and jH-tty larceny?"
"Well," says Holden, "that's some
thing I leave you to settle with her. It
seems you only carried out a fair warn
ing, though of course you had no idea
cf the ghastly effect it would have. But
you never told ino how you reached
that balcony."
"Easily enough, doctor. I simply took
alight rope and grappling hook from
the firebouse, climbed up the rear porch
at the end away from where Kathleen
and Murphy were, went along the south
slope of the main roof to the chimney,
slung the rope about it and lowered my-s.-lf
gently to the balcony, then threw
.ff my overcoat and stod at the open
window. She had gone, and I thought
I was too late, but catching sight of the
very picture whose return she had de
manded and which I had sworn to have
again as well as to see her, I was just en
tering when I heard her step upon the
ftairs. I did not see her. I do not see how
it was possible for her to see me: yet there
came that scream of terror, and the fall
and then the rush. It all flashed over
me in an instant that I had been guilty
of a mad brained prank that it would
never do to be caught there; it could
never be explained. I was up on the
roof in a second, 6natched away the hook
and rope, itouched down to the back
porch, waited a moment for Mnrpby
and Kathleen to run inside, then slid to
the ground, hid the rope under the wood
pile in the dark cellar, squeezed through
a gap in the fence into the captain's
yard nest door they were ell over at
the Hazletts then donned my overcoat
end joined the men running np from
the laundresses' quarters. Latent night,
as the sentry told Captain Kolfe, I went
back, ostensibly to get my pil and re
covered the rope and hook. Tiiat was
all."
Hidden lenders a moment:
"My wife has told rie what she knew
of yetr interview with Mr. Guthrie
after poor Jack's death; but Miss Guth
rie would never speak cf w hat passed
between herself and yon."
On the pale, clear cut face the lints of
care r.nd sorrow and privation seem to
deejien. The shadows darken aliout the
mournful eyes. "I snpjKse I should
never have blamed her as 1 did," he
answers, "but I was maid with gri f over
Jack, with he!ples. hopeless indigna
ti. u over rercival's accusation; and
then, of all others, to have her turn
against me as she did tisat wrj the bit
terest cup! Iltr father's influence ia
her overwrought condition was what
did it. I s uppote; but she drove me from
her sight as though I were ind.-ed a
felon, demanded the return of every
line and trinket she had ever -ivca me
even that prized little carte d.; visile
I Lad carried about me for n yc;:r. It
was then, v.'hea the declared she would
never look npou my face again, that 1
went wild with misery, or d'.spair, I suji
pose. I swore that sooner ur l iter she
shord l see me, and that befortt I ili-d
her picture would le back here ill i:
old place, aud th. n 1 left her. God
knows, the experiences of the years that
followed might have knocked the ro
mantic nonsense out of any man. My
poor sister seemed to be the only one
who had any faith 1 ft in me. I wan
dered all over the west as Ralph Erroli,
mining, 'grub staking,' working like a
dog.
"I was starving in the hills when
Brewster came to my aid. I couldn't
take his money without telling Lim
something of my story, bnt I gave no
names. He doesn't know today any
thing a!out the old trouble doesn't
dream that he well knows the people
who were once my most cherished
friends. It was throngh Lim I enlisted,
and within three months a mine I had
located and yet couldn't sell for a dol
lar K-gan to iiy. Ey the time we
reached Pawnee my half interest in it
proved worth all my years of toil. Then
I thought to we her again took uiyfur
Jongh at the very time her father was
'west trying to find me r.nd undo the
wrong ho had done, and yon know
the rest. She was here, mid I returned
only to learn that the was aliout to
leave and thzt Captain Rolfo was her
accepted lover. Bearded, aged, uni
formed :-.s I wa, I lielievcd she would
not know me even if wo were to meet
face to f jce. and believing, more, that no
vesl-geof the regard ihe once felt for
me remained, believing, too, that the
was to marry Captain Kolfe, I wbs bit
ter, brutal, mail enough to strive to
c;:rry out my vow. Twice I had seen
her on that balcony on the moonlit t-vcii-jngs.
and I determined that the uiizlit of
liir dt parture she should see me for the
last time. Yoa know the re-t. I shaved
(cluan, so as to look us much as jiossible
cs I did ia the old days, wore my civil
ian dress and nearly killed her."
"It was a fearful experiment," says
Ilolden gravely. "About the maddest
I hing yoa could have done."
'J wss mad, doctor, when I heard sho
was to marry him. God ka jws I have
realized it daily, Lonrly, ever since.
And yet. how could fche have seen me?
She never reached the dvor."
"Simplest tiin in the world. J-otk-iiig
but the old principle in optics the
angle of inci.h?nes aud the angle of re
flection. That mirror over the toilet
tb!e did the job. I saw yon in the
dooululit at tie balconx window when
j-ou couldn't see me in the dark ball, and
neither of ns could have seen the other
had the mirror been away. Now here's
Mr. Guthrie. Mind you, you've got to
make amends for that harebrained per
formance at Pawnee; so no word of re
proach to him. He's old and broken."
Three minutes later the clerk kis re
tired, after ushering Holden and his
friend into the private office. The in
stant the latch has clicked a gray haired,
sorrow stricken man, tears standing in
his fading eyes, hands quivering and
trembling, totters forward and might
have fallen but for the 6trong arms that
catch and clasp him.
"My boy's friend! my boy's friend
whom I so wronged!" be falters, and
then for awhile there is solemn silence,
"Is Mr. Percival's confession complete,
and have you seeu iVT asks Ellis gently.
"I have, my boy, at hist."
"Aud it clears me, Mr. Guthrie?"
"Utterly and entirely," the old man
cries. "I thank my God I was wrong
I was wrong!"
One scene more. Pawnee again. The
night train has come from the east.
flolden'e carriage is at the stauor., ana
bo is Brewster.
"All right? all arranged?" wl"""
the doctor, as Le springs from tne car
and grasps the lieutenant's hand.
"All right! Kenyon's just left him,"
answers Curly, and then busies himself
lifting the merry children from the
stop, welcoming Mrs. Holden and care
fully assisting Nita Guthrie to the plat
form. "Yoa happy fellow!" she murmurs.
"How can I congratulate you? It's an
nounced, is it not:" And for a moment
the seems, despite pallor and fatigue,
the old buoyant, radiant Nita.
"Announced?" answers Curly. "My
mother-in-law elect God bless lier
says my face announced it In-fore that
elevator could reach the lower floor."
They drive rapidly up the v iuding
road, and, though plainly nervous and
excited, the fair guest never loses her
presence of mind. She has something
appreciative to say as they pass each fa
miliar object the lower gate, where the
spruce sentry stands at a carry in sa
lute; the guardhouse, where the relief
is just forming; the broad west gate; the
brightly lighted barracks across the pa
rade; the group of trumpeters in the
moonlight out under the tall, glistening
flagstaff. Then come the rush of Mur
phy aud Kathleen to oien the dour and
assist them to alight; the rapturous
greeting between the children and their
Hibernian friends; tho fragranco of cof
fee floating iu from tho kitchen; the
hickory logs snapping and sjKirkliiig in
the fireplace; the old familiar r:oms;
the swinging lamp in the hall.
Welcome to Fawuee once more,
Nita," says no'den, clasping Ix.th her
kinds. "We've had enough of pale
cheeks and drooping spirits. We've
brought you here to recall tho ros(s to
win you back to joy and health, and to
your own old room, Nita. Now will
yon promise not to faint this time, no
matter what spooks you see?"
She is trembling violently. She looks
into Lis licaming face with eager, ques
tioning, imploring eyes.
"Come, dear," whispers Mrs. Holden.
'I'm going np with you."
The doctor summons the children into
the dining room to see the lovely Cowers
on the table, Mrs. Holden twines her
arm about her cousin's waist, and npthe
stair they slowly go. Nita trembles more
and more. They are within a few steps
of the landing, aud as they come iu sight
of the open door Nita shrinks closer to
her cousin's side. Three steps more and
in the dark chamber there gleams that
silvery shield of mirror between the dim
white curtains, reflecting the dazzling
moonlight from without. They reach the
landing and Miss Guthrie pauses, breath
less, unnerved. She can go no farther.
"Nita, it was no ghost you saw." whis
pers Mrs. Iloldeu. "Shall I call him?"
One instant the blue eyes dilate, wild
with hope, incredulity, joy and fear, all
intermingled. Then there is the sound
of a quick, springing step along the hall.
A tall, dark haired, dark eyed soldier
fairly leaps toward them. Nita turns
quickly at the sound, and then with out
stretched arms throws herself forward
to meet him. No terror, no anguish
now, but, as she is clasped to his heart,
joy unutterable ia her stilled cry, in the
one word "Harold!"

Power of the Brain.
The brain of mankind lias been le
tiutdiisa kind of phonographic cylin

ears. If this lie true memory must de

with which the record is nitidi'.
Nor is this all. If memory's record
is kept in the shape of indentations

they ever entirely etl'aeed? In other
words, do we re-ally ever forget any
thing? May it not lie that in the inner

Rescued a President.
However poor the Lincoln home may
have Wen, it aft'ecb-d the new child
but little, says .V f7ri' Miia:iif.
He was robust and active and life is
full of interest to the child happy
enough to be Wtm in the country. He
hail several companions. There was
his sister Nancy, or Sarah With names
are given to her two years his senior;
there was a cousin of his mother's, ten
years ol.hr: Dennis Hanks, an active
and ingenious leader insjHirts and mis
chief, and there were the ncighWrs'
Wys. One of the latter, Austin Golla
her, still tells with pleasure, of how he
hunted coons and ran the woods w ith
young IneoIu and once even saved his
life.
"Yes," said Mr. Gollaher, "the story
that I once saved Abraham Lincoln's
life is true, but it is not i-orrect as gen
erally related.
"Abraham Lincoln and I had Wi-n
going to sc'i)l tvrether for a year or
more ami had W-oome greatly attached
to tach other. Then school dUbaildeil
on account of there W ing so few schol
ars and we did not see each other
much for a long while. One Sunday
my mother visited the Lincolns and
I was taken along. Abe and I playid
around all day. Finally We-c include' 1
to cross the creek to hunt for some par
tridges young Lincoln had scon the
day W fore. The creek was swollen by
a recent rain and in crossing on the
narrow looting Abe fell in. Neither
of us could sw im. I got a long pole
and held it out to AW, who grabW-d it.
Then I pulled him ashore. He was al
most dead and I was badly scjired. I
rolled and isiuiideil him in good ear
nest. Then I got him by the anus and
shook him, the water meanwhile pair
ing out of his mouth. ly this means I
sticii-oded in bringing him to and he
w a soon all right.
"Then a new difficulty confronted us.
If our mothers discovered our wet
clothes they would whip us. This we
dreaded from cxix-rienceand determin
ed toavoid. It was June ; the sun was
very warm and we soon drie-d our
clothing by spre.ulir.git upon the rock
uWnit us. We promised never to tell
the story and I never mentioned the
inc'.dci t toany one until after Lincoln's
tragic c!id.
"Abraham Lincoln had a sister.
IL-r name was Sallie, and i-iic wasa
very putty girl. She went il' to
school w hen she could, w hich was not
often.
"Yes, if you must know, Sallie Lin
coln was my sweetheart. She was
aWiut my age. I loved her and
claimed her as Wiys do. I sup'mse
that was one reason for my warm re
gard for AW-. When the Lincoln fam
ily moved to Indiana I was pii-wiit-cl
by circumstances from bidding
good-by to either of the children. And
I never saw them aain. "
Oklahoma as a State.
It seems as if it was but yesterday
that the first pi.m-ers pitched their
tents in the Territory of Oklahoma; yet
already its population uumW-rs 3 M,0o,),
and they arc knocking lustily for
admission to statehood. As if by
magic much of this wild -r.i.-ss !i u
Wi-n converted into fertile farms, and
the wealth of the inhabitants of tlie
Territory is estimated at not less than
$I','KI,UI.
The two great staples of wheat and
cotton grow side by side ill this favored
land, while it is well adapted for the
cultivation of all the fruits of the tem
jierate stone. Ae-cording to the Govern
or of Oklahoma, the whole region is
udapte-d to agriculture. This, however,
must lie taken with some grains of al
lowance for oftjeial zeal. Iu the wi-st-ern
part of the Territory there is a con
siderable stretch of laud within the arid
zone, in which two out of thn-e crops
fail, as is the case in the dry W it of
Kansas. Put the region is adapted to the
pasturage of cattle, which promises to
bean iiii'mrtaiit branch of theprod-iel-ion
of Oklahoma. There is no lack of
minerals in the Territory, as lead, iron,
copju-r and zinc have been discovcrvd.
Mine of coal have Wt-n opened, and
-M-troh-iim has already Mowed from its
wells. In these conditions manufact
ures w ill soon follow.
Oklahoma hiu already more inhabi
tants than had Idaho and Wyoming
w hen tluy were admitted into the I'n
ion, ami it promises sui to overtake
them With. F.ut the Indian Territory
should l-o consolidated w ith Okhdieimi
li'ion its erection into the State. Tho
two Territories, together, would form
one of the gre-atest agricultural states
of the I'nion. There is no go-.l reason
for cutting up the region into two states
when it would make one great an.l ho
rn ogem-ous Common wealth.
A bill has Wvn introduced in the

rose in the Western World." Congress
appropriated yl7,07 for the puriK.sc,
but that fund lias already Wvn ex
hausted, and the encroachments of the
James Iiiver are endangering much of
the work already done toward preserv
ing the most valuable relics of the tirst
Knglish settlement in what is now the
l.'niteil States.
"Saved My Life"

"Several years ago, while in Fort
Snelling, Minn., I caught a severe

Unless clover or alfalfa is grown and

II. li. Guricr says the greatest loss
of fat in tlie buttermilk that he has
ever found came from excessively sour
cream. There is much loss danger of
cream rich in fat becoming too sour
than there is from cream that is ssr in
fat.
If cream is churned too warm, says
a dairyman, the butter comes soft, of a
pale color and diilie-ult to separate fn.m
the buttermilk ; if too cold the cream
sometimes foams and butter refuses to
break.
The next W-st thing to dehorning is
to tit a metal blunt tip over the horns
of cattle so as to prevent the horns from
piercing when in play or anger they are
pushed against other animals. These
tijiscu'i le procured at in st hardware
stores, and sawing oil' enough of the
horn to make them a good tit is a'K-.in-less
ojieratioii that docs not require
cither skill or severe labor.
It is known that there is considera
ble diHi-rem-i; in the length of gesta
tion of domestic animals. A French
scientist believes that it is iu some do-gre-e
due to the warmth or cold to which
the dam has lieen subjected. Cold
weather he tinds retards gestation. The
exjH-rinienls showing this were m-ule
with rabbits, which breed readily at all
seasons, and whose usual term of gesta
tion is only six to seven weeks.
If carrots, rutabagas and mangel
wurtzcls, turnips and cabbages are fed
with discritioti to the cows, they con
stitute a cheap and valuable addition to
thef.i-ding ration, and there will W no
not bralile effect um the flavor of the
milk if fed immediately after milking.
These certainly increase the ilow.
Care should W! taken not to dry o:r
too s.ion f?e young heifer in her iirt
year of milking, as this h ibit, formed
