There were a few moments--awful moments
of stroggle=when none know or remembered
whit they did ' • a moment more and Rose lay
panting in her father's arms, enveloped in a thick.
blanket which he had throwi around her burn
ing night dress. The fire was estinguished, the
babe ley unstrakemed, and only the dark flecks
of tinder scattered over the bed, and the tram
pled mass on the floor, told what bad been. But
Itpoe had breathed the hot breath of the !lame,
d to human life, and no water could quench
thit inward fire.
A word nerves to explain all The•
nurse had carelessly set a lamp too near the
curtains, and the night breeze had wafted them
into the flame. The apartment of Roae opened
into the nursery, and as she stood in her night•
thwas_bilore her mirror, arranging her hair, she
am the baiting of the flame, and, in the one
idea of saving her little sister, forgot every other.
That act of self- forgetfulneas was her last earthly
act; tk few short hours of patient suffering were
all that remained _to her. Peacefully as she.
had lived, she died, looking tenderly on her
parents out of her large blue eyes, and only in-,
tent to soothe their pain.
"Yea, I suffer," she said, "but only a bilai
rude We must all suffer something. ;My
Father thinks a very little enough for me. I
have bad snob a happy life, I might bear just a
little pain at the last."
A little later her mind teemed to wander.—
."Mamma, mamma," she said. hurriedly," I pot
the things all away ; the Mae • muslin and the
barege. Mamma, that veil, the mourning veil,
6in the tlrserer Oh, mamma, that 'eil was for
you; don't refuse it; our Father sends it, and
he knows best. Perhaps you will see heaven
through that veil."
