A MEMORY. A wail of a child at. midnight. The chime of a minster bell, Tbe sorrowful moan of a sorrowing soul, . And the sound of a passing knell. An old worn book, on a corner shelf. And a spray of faded yew, . A locket with hair all golden and fair. And a ribbon of faded blue. A needle-case, both empty and old. And a case with hidden spring. Wherein two golden watch keys lie, A heart and a wedding ring. I take the book from the corner shelf, And the ribbon of faded blue. And before me stands the form I loved, With hair of a golden hue. And I gaze so long In those earnest eyes. That my soul grows weak with pain, Then she fades away and I gently lay The old book down again. Every Other Saturday.

"The same," sighed Vane, as he cleared a chair of two paint brushes and a saucer of oily water. "Where should I be when I bare a moment to spare. If not here?" He grinned amusedly as his great shoulders came against the straight rods of the "show chair," and the frag ile thing groaned under bis weight "Why don't you hare some substan tial chairs?" he asked teaslngly. ny don t you take anu-ratr re torted Miss Ferrers, sharply. Vane whistled under his breath. Don t let my presence keep you from your work at all." he said with a spice of sarcasm In his tones. Miss Ferrers laughed. "As If it erer did, you dear boy!" she (aid, dabbling away busily at her can vas. "That's Just the jolly thing about you, Teddy, one doesn't hare to look out for your comfort, or see that you are entertained." "Thanks," remarked Vane, musingly. He moved his chair round to a posi tion whence he could see the chic little figure on the high bench before the easel. In spite of their continual bick erings and fallings out, the little figure was the dearest In the world to Vane. He became aware, presently that the hazel eyes of Miss Ferrers were quizzi cally returning his regard. "What's on your mind. Teddy?" she asked, smiling again and causing two tantalizing dimples to dance about het lips. "If you've come away from work Just to ask me to marry you, I tell you again, I won't That Joke's worn threadbare, dear boy. If wa hadn't known each other erer since wa were In pinafores, it might hare been differ ent but as It Is PoufI Go away. Teddy! Tou Interfere with my work." She took up her brush again and went back to her painting. "If you're bothered, you're done It yourself, and never given me half a chance," Vane said In Injured tones. "You're too prone to Jump at conclu sions. Glad. As to marrying, I don't come to ask you that I told you that the tenth time would be the last and you said 'No' then, you remember." He stopped for a moment tbe more fully to enjoy the p'rJfcflnah that would "I've got all orer caring for girls. It' dogs -this time. Glad." He mored hla chair a little closer tc hers and talked eagerly. "Dick Story's father's got hold of some beauty Saint Bernard pups. I didn't know but you might care to go for a look at them." He had said his little say, and sub sided contentedly. Miss Ferrers waited patiently for the color to die out of her cheeks. "H'm!" she said, meditatively "Thanks, rery much. I should be pleased, I'm sure. Saint Bernards are such picturesque animals. Should you make this Nabnnt cottage red or white, Teddy V "Red," answered Vane, promptly, rising and going orer to take a look at the sketch. Miss Ferrers proceeded deliberately to make the cottage a white blot on the landscape. She was wondering, with a little hurt feeling at her heart if he had really done caring for her, and Vane, towering over her, was not look ing at the sketch at all, but rather at the ruffled golden hair and fair face, with an expression In his honest blue eyes that Gladys, with all her quick, bright glances, had never been able tc surprise from him. There was a sudden rustling of silken skirts in the hall, and the studio door was opened to admit a dainty little lndy. Flitting across the room she be stowed a kiss upon Gladys, and a bright, comprehensive glance upon Vane. "I'm In trouble, sister," she 6ald, leaning against Miss Ferrers' shoulder. "Oh, dear, I've left poor Horace out side!" She ran back to the door and swnng It open. "Come In, dearie," she eared. - Her husband having entered and de posited a large basket on the floor, and himself in an easy chair, the little woman dropped to the edge of a divan, and balancing herself there with ex treme nicety, heaved -a great sigh. "What's in the hamper?" asked Gladys, smiling over at her brother. ' The little woman broke into explann tioiis. "You Jiint can't think, Gladys," slit lH-gan hurriedly. "Poor dear Horace is called to New York on business. lit must go to-day. so lie's taking rne with him and our help Is going to visit her oeople." "That disposes of the family, then," Vane put In, smiling across at the anx ious little woman. "That's Just what it doesn't" replied her husband, trying to frame a smile. "You forget Van Winkle." Gladys regarded her sister with a frown of disapproval. "Surely you won't leave Van Win kle behind." she said. "Surely Van Winkle Is Dot going U New York with me," answered the hus band, quickly. "I'm not the man to carry a heavy cat In a hamper, three or four days, through the streets of New York, or to put him up at a hotel and listen to his howls at night" "But Van Winkle doesn't howl," pro tested his wife. "He's a dear, pcaee ibie cat and you know it, Mr. Parks!" "Weil, the dear, peaceable cat can't go with us. that's all," finished her hus band, fiercely. "I could leave him with auntie, only she la so very forgetful, and she leaves so, much to Bridget" There were teari in the little woman's eyes as she turned toward Vane. "We've had him for even years, Ned." ahe aald, smiling through her tears. Tflrer since we were mamea, you know, and Angorat are so Bhoi t-lived. too. If Van Winkle were lost It would just break my heart "1 understand," assented , Vane, gravely. "And now you propojc " "To lrave Uim with Gladys for t few days," Interrupted the little wo man, easterly. "We're fetched him in the hamper, Glad. Let Van Winkle out Horace, dear I'm sure Gladys is happy to do this for sister, aren't you. dearie ?" There was silence for a moment 01 two during which MIsa Ferrers pen lively eyed tbe silver gray Angora. "I s'pose I am awfully wicked," she said at length. "Helgho! Well, I ac cept my punishment" She took up her brush resignedly and turned to her painting. "But Glad dearest, I want yon to listen to me for a moment'' expostula te! tbe little woman. Fire minutes later she wound up her remarks by saying: "You'll be very careful and not trust him to auntie or Bridget, won't you. Glad? It would just make me 111 to lose him, and I couldn't keep house, I know." Gladys shrugged her shoulders. Im patiently. "I think I ought to understand," she said, rather crossly. "Feed him three times a day one-eighth of a pound of stewed liver and one gill of milk; let him sleep by the kitchen range at night wash his face in the morning, or he will be out of sorts, and be sure not to let him get out That's all. Isn't It? If yon say another thing, I declare I won't keep him! Now go, do, before you drive me quite frantic." "But Glad," put In the little woman, "Van Winkle is such a pet Why, ev ery morning ' "My dear," Interrupted her husband, "our train leaves In twenty minutes." Whan they had finally gone, and Vane found himself free to do so, he laughed heartily. "That fixes the Saint Bernards, I guess, he ventured. "They don't go well with cats, do they. Glad?" "Don't be so perfectly sillyl" said Miss Ferrers, severely. "And I'll thank you not to laugh at my relatives." Vane hummed a popular air and sauntered about the room, inspecting the sketches that adorned Its burlap- covered walls. Finally he came round 1 to the little figure on the bench. "To-morrow the dad is sending me to Washington for three whole weeks of business," he said, dismally. "Won't you tell a fellow you're sorry?" "I'm sorry," said Misa Ferrers, very shortly. ' Vane looked down at her for a mo ment, then drew himself up to bis ex treme height "I'm glad," he said, abruptly, "ex tremely so." Without another word he left the room. Miss Ferrers stared after him in surprise. 'I really think he has tired of me," be said at length, with a faint attempt at a smile. During the first day . of his. exile, Van Winkle conducted himself aa well aa might hare been expected. It was almost the close of the second day, when Aunt Theo and Mlsa Ferrers were sipping their afternoon tea, that they first missed him. With the aid of long-suffering Bridget the little bouse was searched from garret to cellar. No Van Winkle waa forthcoming. The fact was that discovering the door leading out to tbe storm porch to be -''''nMpedjintJnid himself. . . .-a, "and fallen asleep. ' After that some one had closed the Inner door, tearing him In the porch. It happened that Vane bad been de layed a day In his trip, and having re pented his hasty leare-taklng of Miss Ferrers, had called to tell her as much. So it was that wheq he opened the door boldly and stepped Into the porch. Van Winkle, 'suddenly seeing the world be fore him, took to bis heels and ran away as fast as erer he could, with Vane close upon him. As Vane gained on him Van Winkle grew the more frightened, and finally I subsided and crouched shivering in the j snow. Vane put two big hands weightily upon him, and gathering him up, was about to return him to the house when It struck him suddenly that it would be a good little Joke on Gladys if she thought for a little that Van Winkle was really lost He went up to a side of the veranda, and lifting the hinged end ever so little, thrust Van Winkle In, and dropped the board again. Then be presented him self at the' door. All was confusion. Bridget with' a irow, was scratching at all the dark orners of the hall, and heaping abu ilve langauge upon all coon cats. Aunt Theo with her glasses on wrong side up and a much bejidldcred expression on her pretty old face, was wringing her hands silently. Gladys herself, who had led tbe hunt was gathered In a miserable little heap 5n the staircase, crying bitterly. Sh looked up for a moment at the lound of Vane's voice. "What Is It7 What's the trouble?" he asked Aunt Theo, grarely. "Oh, Teddy," sobbed the voice from the staircase, "you know Bhe said it would break her heart, and there were :ears in her eyes, too, Teddy!" "Cut what's the matter?" again asked Vane. "Van Winkle is lostl" walled Miss Ferrers. "Oh, to think It should hap pen when I Oh, 1 wouldn't have iad It' happen for anything in the world. They're had him seren years. Oh!" Vane looked grave enough. "I say, Gladys, don't alt there: get ;-.p and find the cat," he said. "But we've hunted the whole house iver," moaned Miss Ferrers. "H'm! Go outside and look ror nim. He won't have gone far in this ! uen -ow. He's too pampered. 1 11 wax ant we can find him." There was muglc In the Httle pronons "wo." "Oh, Teddy," gasped Miss Ferrers, smiling at him through her tears, "If ,uly you will help nie, I'll do anything a the world I can for you! I'll even aiarry you!" she cried triumphantly. Vano shrugged his shoulders. "H'm! You've promised that before and failed," he said. Indifferently. Nevertheless he went out of the house, and round and round the lawn, searching diligently. .When, finally, he thought a plausible length of time had elapsed, he went back to the piazza, and lifting the lattice end, ever so lit tle, seized Van Winkle, and tucking the frightened creature under hia arm strode Into the house. ' So one was to be seen save Gladys, SO One Was iu uv btcu vawv vum.jb,, who was groping with an umbrella ban- R die under an old locker in tbe aittlng room, and sprang up with a cry of de-1 light when Vane said: "Here he la. Glad I guess youll find him all right" Gladys hugged the restored treamir I to her breaat as Joyfully aa ever Tat slater could have done. "Oh, Teddy, you're such -a comfort! be said, hearing a sigh of relief. ' "Thanks," said Vane. "By tbe way, be went on aobcrly, "I came over to say that I waa sorry I went off in such a huff yesterday. We've been such good familiar friends all our lives, that I forget sometime that you aren't my sister. I hope youH forgive me for be ng such a boor." "Certainly." Gladys aald smiling, and wondering in her heart what he meant by such politeness. "You forget what I promised yon If yon found Van Winkle, Teddy," she said, rallying him on his good conduct "Oh, never mind that" Vane laughed carelessly. "I know better than to try to bold yon to your promisee." "But I meant It Teddy," urged Miss Ferrers, causing the tantalizing dim ples to play about her sinking lips. "Yes, no doubt" Vane said ruefully. "We'll speak at more length on the subject when I have returned from Washington. Until then, good-by. fJIad." .He offered bis hand In a quiet, friend ly way. "Good-by, Teddy." said Miss Ferrers, still smiling, and thinking In her heart that she liked the old boisterous Vane much more than this proper young fel low. When he had gone out of the room and she had heard the outer door close, she put her face down on the lid of tbe piano and kept It there for two or three nlnntes. - - - "Oh, Teddy, Teddy, Teddy," she said brokenly, "I meant every word of the promise. I did! I did!" "Did you?" asked a familiar voice "lose at band. Gladys started up. Vane stood close by her, his handsome young face cov ered with smiles. An angry flush burned the tears from her eyes. "You mean, deceiving creature!" slip xclalnicd. - "Did you?" he asked again, slipping his arm about her. -- "Yes. I did!" answered Miss Ferrers, crossly. Wa verier.

"Mother, I want It Just drtail.uJj . tnd It don't cost but a quarter." But Kenneth's mother only replied patiently, as she had done several times before: 'I am sorry, dear, but I can't give you even a quarter." 'All the same. I am going to have that rooster," Kenneth proclaimed to the younger children, who gathered around him. "I never can hare any- hlng. Mother could gire me that quar :er Just as well as not" In his heart ie knew that this charge was not true, Out it made him feel better to say so. When the children came trooping in to supper that night Ray ran to her aiother, her blue eyes shining with ex citement "Mother, mother. Kenneth got the banty rooster, and the coop is all made for It; and blmeby he's going. to have a hen and lots of little chickens and sell tbe ecrgs and buy a tarui, and we're all going to live there." Kenneth looked somewhat defiant as he took his seat; but when bis mother said gravely,, "Where did you get that rooster, Kenneth?" the answer was prompt and frank, "Don't yon worry about that, mother. That's all right honest. It Is." Mrs. Miller was In the habit of trust ing her children, so the subject was dropped. The rooster flourished in his uew home, and all tbe children fed blm, bung orer bis coop, and counted the number of times be crowed.

Morning Star. TRUE POLITENESS A-Soleclaaa that Was the Hla-heat Kind of Politeness. Printed rules can not teach courtesy What writer on etiquette would tol erate for an Instant the Idea of eating chicken with one a Angers? Yet an in cldent told In the "Life of Henry A. Wise" shows that on occasions it may be unmannerly to use a fork. After Mr. Wise's Record In Congress had made blm an eminent figure In the country. It happened that one day he paid a visit to the Crockett, a fam ily of his constituents, who lived In simple fashion upon a little island off the Virginia coast All the members of the family except Tom, a small boy, were at church, and Mr. Wise refused him the exciting privilege of running to Inform his par ents of the unexpected arrival of their distinguished guest If your folks knew I were, here," said he, "they would either leave the meeting or could not enjoy It" In due time the parents returned. embarrassed. -by honor of receiving a visit from Mr. Wise. They were both painfully 111 at ease, and at din ner Mrs. Crockett grew so flustered that she could scarcely pour the cof fee. ....... Suddenly, to the amazement of the sympathetic .Tom, the cloud of fear and anxiety passed from - her face. Looking around., he aaw Mr. Wise munching one end of a large chicken bone. After dinner the boy found means to draw Mr. Wise apart, and Immediate ly put the burning question: . , 'Mr. Wise, why did you take that piece of b'iled chicken in your Angers and bite mouthfuls off It Instead of using your knife and fork? My mar, she makes me nse a knife and fork. You ought to know what'a right Now, is mar wrong, or Is it you 7' No, my boy,", answered Mr. Wise. "your mother's all right but I had my reason for eating in that way. - Did yon notice now embarrassed your mother seemed to be 7" I 'She waa steered nlghly to death," assented Tom. Well, It was the way I ate that chicken that made your mother feel at ease In my presence. She felt that there was one thing she could teach me. If she was an Islander, and that , was table manners.

In order, therefore, to obtain tbe right tint the coloring matter has only to be Introduced into the mixture before tbe tooth Is cast In order to match the other teeth exactly. It in in thla particular that china teeth often fall to appear natural, their color dif fering from the other teeth In tbe mouth and showing that the tooth Is artificial. Another novelty with regard to teeth sonslats In their filling. Dentists no longer nse as much gold or platinum as they did formerly In fact, metal fillings are out of date. Bone or Ivory Is the substance employed, and both possess the advantage of appearing more natural. Of course, those who already have gold or platinum fillings will not go to the expense and trouble Df having them removed, but they bare been tabooed by the smart set and in future nothing so conspicuous will be need. Neither bone nor ivory satisfies the dentists, however, and they are hunting around for some composition which will be both durable and plastic and yet will match tbe color of tbe teeth.

Bad luck to the leg or arm If 11 hive last! What! More of it" ylt? Och, murther! . The say's mighty deep, to be sure!" After continuing In a similar strain and conceiving there was fittle proba bility of the completion of his labor, he suddenly stopped short, and looking up to the officer on the watch, he ex claimed: "Bad luck to me, sorr. If I don't be- lave somebody's cut off the other end o' this line."

EMOCHACY is never safe unless It be the expres sion of theocracy. . He who would learn to work for men, must learn to wait on God. Christ did not say. that tbe world would be lighted by preach ers, but by prac tlcers? Our profession of lore to God Is only proven by the practice of the love of God. If souls could be seen, many a church might give an exhibition of living skel etons. Tou must get on tbe Inside of a man before you can talk to him about mside things.

Even the devil was convinced when he saw that Job served God for love and not for a living.
