GOD HELP HER.
lIT t JAMES WOAEROLL.
God help the ivreteh" who nightly drags,
Her life along the ghostly,ilags, •
In sin, In hunger, and in rags.
God help her, when the bitter rain
Beats on the poor dark window pane,
And almost wash out her stain.
God Yelp hbr, when with broken feet,
She bows her head and stoops to meet,
The cruel Corner of the street.
GOd help her, when with tearless eye
She looks into the blackened sky,
And striiseTher breast and atiss to die
God help hor s wandering to and fro
Without ono Ohristain smile to threw
A beam upon her 'sullied snow.
Poor child of good, and child of
The slave of her unholy will,
Clod help her, she's a woman still.

L A STORY
I had a pet nephew, John Brydon,
and a dear friend, Jessie Graham. Now,
I am not a bit of a match-maker; but,
loveing thesb two people so dearly, it
was but natural that I should wish to
haVethem near me. This was a pleas
ure I: seldom enjoyed, ,for Jessie was
teaching in one of the city schools, and
it was only for the brief vacations that
I could oldirn her. John, too, was book
keeper in ti-large mercantile house, and
his visits to "The Ferns," as 'I called
my home, Were rare. By dint of much
strategy, l l had succeeded in securing
them both for the Chilstmas holidays;
and In order, that they might not be
lonely, I,lnVited a host of nephews and
nieces to meet them. For, Christmas
Eve, we had dancing, games, tableaux,
and, ',to crown all, an immense tree, la
den with gifts for all present. It did
my old heart good to hear the joyous
laughter ringing through the quiet hail,
and to watch the fair forms and bright
'faces that brought before me FO vividly
the scenes of-my own 'youth ; but most
of all', I loved to look at Jessie, and for
the first time I began to skeculate a'
little uon tlieprobability oftM , having,
some day, _a better right to her love
than I then Possessed, if she and _John
would only love each other. The idea
once lodged in my brain, it was im
possible for rue to think of anything
els and I turned to look for them,
hoping to sed something which should
confirm what I so ardently desired. I
found them dating in an alcove, Jessie,
as ustAhl, surrounded with friends, for
she was a gneral favorite. I do not
know , what they had been talking
about, but; just .as I joined-lhem,
heardlier sag distinctly—" There is no
vice for which I have such an utter ab
horrence, as that of drunkenness, and I
am convinced I should lose every par
ticle respect for a man, having once
seen him intoxicated."
"BUt sureli , ," urged one, "no gentle
mtun vr.euld veliture into the seciety of
ladles, while lin such a condition."
"Nevertheless," answered Jessie, "I
have seen gentlemen_ at parties, who, if
notlactuitily Intoxicated, were at least,
BO far'under the influence of liquor, as
to be unconscious of their words and
deeds."
"And whoSe hands offered the wines,
Miss Graham ?"
- - - - -
"I understand you," was the low re
ply ; `but, admit the dainty fingers
offer the cupi and bright eyes challenge
you to quaff its contents,' do you wish'
me tc believe that a man has not suffi
cient firing+ to resist the temptation ?
What has become of your boasted de
cision of character, and the strength of
purp4)se upo4i which you pride your
selves? j' no, Mr. Lawrence; be
honest enough to confess that the fault
lies in your own weakness."
John had been leaning over the back
of her chair, and just then I chanced to
look up at him. The crimson torrent
rushed to his face, then as suddenly re
ceded, lefty* a grayish pallor, about
his mouth, while the hand that , rested
on the chair actually trembled'. I was
too frightened to speak. Suddenly,
there flushed} across my mind a recollec
tion of somelvagne rumors I had heard
concerning John's interperate habits,
I bad never heeded them, believing
them to be Utterly false. 13dt now—
what but a consciousness of guilt and
shame conldpave caused that varying
color? • I gr w sick at .heart, and si
lently leaving the group, I hurried up
to my own room,, that I might be idol*
to think. A.las the joy of that
bright Christmas time had vanished, •
leaving iu its stead, a great sorrow that
must be borne alone and in silence.. I
watched John closely after this, and al
though wine was repeatedly offered to
him, he invariably refused it ; so I con
cluded that,
.after all, I had been mis
taken, and eattsed myself. a great, deal
of unnecessar y suflbring. _
At the close of the holidays, my
guests returudd to their homes; but on
the last morning; John came, looking
proud and happy, to tell me that, be
fore another Christmas,- he - and Jessie.
were to be married. Jessie,. too, came
into the library while we were there,
and we passed the entire morning in
forming bright plans for the future.
Jessie was to go back to school until the
summer vacation, when she would
return to wrixe;Ferne," and would re
main withaue until her marriage which
was to take place in October. I bade
them good-bye With a light heart, the
parting robbed 'of its bitterness • by the
hope of a speedy re-union. Meantime,
I was not idle. My . fortune was large,
and my wants few. Instead of leaving
`my - property to I.)e , disposed of after my
death, I chose be my own executor, and
enjoy the greatest luxury which wealth
can afford—the ; blessddness of giving.
Ai it was necessary for John to live in
the city, I decided to give Jessie, as a
bridal present, a house in Fourteenth
street, which had lately come into my
possession. 'I went down to" New York
some time in july,, to' see 'my agent
about having the house put in perfect
order, and handiomely furnished ; but
my first Call wad upon Jessie, whom I
found lookingthin, and paler, I fancied,
than at Christmas. I remained until
Ler school closed, and then took her
bottle' with me. 1 On the last day of my
visit, we went through the house; to
see if Jessie could suggest any improve
ment 'in the arrangements ; but she
seemed perfectly delighted, and was
InOFC like her old, cheerful, happy self,
than I had seen her before. She peeped.
into the .chitta closet, saying, with . tt ;
laugh, that if she "had a weakness, it
was for a liandine table-service."
'. "Pronounce judgment upon these,
then," I answered,,as I held before her
a set Of decanters and wine-glasses. I
displayed them with pardonable vanity,
-for theitiesign Was rare, and the work
wiwship exquibite; and remembering
my darling's dtinty -taste, I had 'been
at great pains to prOeure them. I was
not a little disappointed, therefore, lto
he tr her say, yitictly, that "they were
Very beautiful; but she should never
:use thew."
"Why not?" I asked with some Sur
prise.
"Because, Aunty, I long ago deter
mined that there should never be a
glass of liquor in any house of which I
was the mistress."
I knew Jessie to be an advocate of the
temperance cause, but never supp r osed
she would allow its principles to influ
ence her to such a degree,
"Nonsense," I, replied. "You are
getting to be a regular fanatic) upon
that subject ; thero is no harm iu an
occasional indulgence."
"Amity," and the delicate mouth
quivered, while the tones of her voice
were hard and bitter, "my father com
mitted suicide in a tit of .delirium tre
mens, My mother died brcikeu-hearted,
and all only brother sleeps iii a drunk
ard' grave. Do you wonder at my fit
n141081112"
"Does John know this?" I inquired.
She drew herself up proudly, and an
swered—
"I: have no secrets for him,"
"And•is ho willing to banish wine
from his table?" I continued.
"Quite.se; and, more than that, he
has pfemised never agalu to touch it
himself."
"Why, Jessie!" I exclaimed, "is it
possible that you haye made a temper
ance man of him? I have so often
heard him declare that no earthly
power could indneo him to sign the
pledge. You must be a magician."
"Not quite, for he has not done that ;
his promise was given to me; and the
only magician is Love," she added,
softly.
I-do not know what made me say it,
but the ,words 'came unbidden, .and
were il e a ttered without thought—" Su
ppose should fail to keep his word."
"T4n God pity me, for he is father
and mother; brother and sister to me—
nil tliat I have upon earth."
"But, surely, Jessie, you would not
give him up jt.it, for that."
A dreary, hopeless look filled the
brown eyes, but the lines about her
mouth were firm, and the sweet voice
never faltered as she replied—He must
choose for himself."
.I said no more, satisfied that words
were useless, and we finished Our tour
o:lospection in silence. I
The nest day found us once more at
"The Ferns :" and in the busy days
that followed, we bad neither time nor
inclination to touch upon a theme so
painful. The wedding-day dawned
•;right and beautiful, one of those love
ly October days that seemed to have
strayed down to earth from Paradise.
• The ceremony was to be performed
in the little old-fashioned church, and
immediately after the were to start for
Washington. lii compliance with Jes
sie's wish, very few invitations had been
issued. I petitioned for a large party,
but finally yielded, and consoled myself
with thoughts of the grand reception
which woald follow their I
return,
for,
although I was no longeryoung I dear
ly loved to see people 1 appy. John
came up the night befor , and called
me into his room to exami r,i e his present
to Jessie, and exquisite pin or pearls,
set in frosted gold. While there, .1
noticed his dressing-case Open, and in
one of the compartments a traveling
flask. I picked it up. "What is' this,
John?" .
"Brandy," was the laconic answer.
f thought ofJessie, and instantly looted
grave, - lir•notteed it, and continued
with a smile—L"lt has not been open in
five months, for I suppose you know I
am under orders now."
"lees, I know, but why do you keep
it here, if you never use it ?"
"'Well, the ease and contents were a
present ; and besides, I like to test my
own strength, by keeping it always
within reach, yet never yielding to the
temptation, for it Is such, sometimes,"
he added in a lower tone.
"Tzike care, John," I urged. "Re
member that human nature is but a
frail thing to trust to, ,and how can you
pray to he kept from temptation, yet
hoiirly subject yoursel to such a trial."
"Isn't it worth EOl thing to know'
that I can resist?"
I shook my head do tfully, but said
nothing. Jessie reth to her room
early complaining of a severe headache,
and as I was quite busy, John decided
to ride over to the village. I charged
him with a few commissions, not very
important, but which lie promised,
nevertheless, should be faithfully atten
ded to, and bade him good-night.
did not hear him come honie, but hap
pening to be awake at a long time past
midnight, I heard him pacing the floor
of his room with a quick, impatient
step. At first I was alarined, but finally
concluded that he was only a little
nervous in -anticipation of coining
events. When I went down stairs in
the morning, I found him on the piaz
za, smoking.
"Good-morning," I said, "Did you
have a pleasant ride, and where are my
packages ?"
He flung away his cigar, and came
toward me, looking spale and haggard,
with a heavy look about his eyes, that
plainly Indicated a sleepless,night—" I
am sorry, Aunty, I quite forgot them,"
be began', but I interrupted him.
"What is the matter, John ? Are
ybu ill ? You look wretchedly."
1I"Do I?" he said absently. "I believe
Incia feeling quite well."
"You believe I" I repeated. "See
how your hand trembles, and you must
have been up all night. Let me get
you something immediately. What
will you have?"
"Nothing, thank you; I dare say I
shall be better after breakfast; a cup of
coffee will steady my nerves," he re
plied with a little laugh.
Jessie did . :ot come doWn to break fasc,
and as won as the meal was over,
went up to her room. I had sent up a
tray with coffee and toast, and was sur
prised to see it untouched / while Jessie
lay on the lounge, pale and languid.
She started up, and with ti faint attempt
at a laugh, said—"ls it time to dress,
.and have you come to scold me for my
laziness ?"
"You have time 'enough, dear; but
how is this—no breakfast?"
"Op ! I am not hurio e' Ty this morning.
Indeed," she added, after if pause, "I
do not know why it is, but I feel so
strangely, asif something terrible was
about to happen ; we're it atitll inclined
to be superstitious, I should call it a
presentiment."
"Nonsense!" I interrupted. "What
terrible calamity can possibly befall
you on this, of all days? Dismiss;.Sitilin
your mind all such hi le fancies;
f
you must have a presentiment, let it be
of coming joy. I will leave you now to
dress, and when I conic again, let Mc
find you looking beautiful and happy,
as becomes a bride."
Jessie blushed through tier tears, and
kissing her tenderly, I lat' her alone.
Two hours later I returt cd, and fotind
that she had strictly ot;eycd my parting
injunction. She wore a heavy xviiite
silk ; her veil, pure and soft, flouted
about her like a cloud, and ,in place of
tears, were bright, joyous
"Well,
,little snow-drop, are you
rattly?"
"I believe so."-
• "Come then ." and log:Aber we went
down to the lit;rary, where John was
waiting us.
"Punctual to the moment," he said,
lool:ing - at his watch, and coning to
meet us. "611;111 sin t me,hately
and disappoint the until-ter and the
people by lielng on tinni ?"
Isavondered that he did not" wait to
admire Jessie, or even to exchanga a
few fond words, but supposed his impa
tience was allowable under the circum
stances. Passing through the vestibule

a friend—" Byron was on a j ly spree
last night; went home at idnight,
half tight."
I started. Could they, too, have
heard him? Oneglance convinced me.
Every vestige of color faded from Jessie's
face, while from John's eyes there shot
an angry, defiant look, as he hurried
her, almost rudely, into the church ape
up the aisle. The minister was waiting,
and immediately commenced the cere
mony.
John's responses was clear and
firm ; but I listened in breathless sus

was addressed to the bride. She hes.

she
led her to the carriage, and T fol
lowed.
Consternatinn and amazement
were depicted on every countenance
I, alone, was net surprised ; I had fear
ed this denouement. We rode home 'in
perfect silence. As we entered the
hpuse, Jessie turned to John and said
—"You believe that I have this day
publicly 'insulted and disgraced, you
Prove that you have not ,deceived me,
that your promise has been faithfully
kept, and I will make any reparation
in my power. no matter how humilia
ting it may be." . .
"I cannot," he replied, "Instead, let
me make confession." Then he told
her how he had met some friends the
night before, and after enduring: ever
possible taunt and ridicule, had, in a
moment of passion, yielded, and mad

yet sober enough to realize what he had
done. He did not close his eyes in sleep
that night. More than once •he was
tempted to acknowledge, everything,
trusting to her love and charity fur for
giveness. But if she refused—could ht
give her up at the very last moment
No, he could not, he would keep this
secret. at least until she was his own,
his wife; then, perhaps he would have
the courage to confess it. Ho acknbwl
edged that ho hail acted dishonerably,
and that the tribulation was a Just one
in-se far as the ,punishment •lell upon
himself alone. The hardest thing tai
endure would be the consciousness than
he had embittered her life, and per-Imp
broken h i es heart. "I will not ask your
forgiveness," lie said, "I have not de
served it,; but if you can once more
place confidence in one w,ho has proved
himself SO unworthy, trust me, the time
will yet 2 i come when I may at least
claim your respect, although your love
may be forever, lost." He paused, and
then exclaimed passionately—" Jessie,
my darling, will you let the go from
you forever, without one word?"
"No, John," and she laid both hands
in hie;
"the forgiveness you were too
proud to ask, I freely offer ,youy I do
not utterly condemn you or one fault;
but oh, John ! with all the recollections
of my childhood to warn me, I could
not act otherwise. Ido trust you, and
believe, in my heart, that some day I
shall he proud to own that I loved :mid
was beloved by you." She withdrew
her hands and turned away, but he
clasped her to his heart in a Bassi nate
embrace, kissed her once—and was
gone. .
The next week he sailed for Europe.
The firm he was with had long cm plo3 -
ed at resident clerk in Paris, and learn
ing from John his desire to go, abroad,
they offered the position to him. - Jessie
went to Ohio to visit an aunt, and short
ly after her arrival there, entered a
seminary as music-teacher.
Four times had Christmas come and
gone since their departure, and on the
night before the fifth, I sat alone in my
quiet room, musing with a sad heart
over the past. A knock startled use
from toy painful revery, and a servant
entered with a card—" John Button:"
I hurried down 'stairs and found him
in the library. He was sadly altered.
I tried to welcome him, but tears cholto
the words I attempted to speak.
"Aly dear John." .
"My precious old aunty."
After it while he told we the story of
the past live years. How he had work
ed diligently and well, until he bad
risen to a partnership in the firm, and
already possessed a handsome fortune;
but a foreign climate, intense apidiea
lion to bushfeSs, and above all, ther
sence of the dear familiar faces, beg m
to impair his health, and he came bsclz
to recruit. "I shall be better ooli,','''`ie
said, —now that I am once more at
home, for I believe that alter all I t ill
only home•siek." He laid his he. d
over in my lap. and - I smoothed tto
ilark hair, Which was already f' do ly
threaded with silver, while he, told tie
incidents of foreign life atilt travel, t n
til the gray light in the east heral ed
j
the dawning of another Christmas
morn. All that rest, and care, and the
tenderest love, could do for him, seem
ed vain. His step g) . ew more languid,
his cheek paler and thinner. H en
the balmy air of spring brought no
btrellgql to the wasted frame, no color
to the hallow cheek, and by the mid lie
of May he was unabl • to leave his room.
Then, for the first time, he cousen,,ed
to see a physician. The good old doc
tor looked very grave, and I folloWed
him from the roan.
"There Is no actual disease," he sa
"only a gradual wasting away of ;
whole system;" and he preseri lied sO
ulants, which John resolutely rt-ftl
to touch. I 0 vain I urged the doct i i t
orders, and told him he would coital)
die utiles: , he obeyed them.
"Die I must, then, it' there is no .
er alternative, I have never tasted lig
since that night," he said, with a sh,
ner, "and, please God, I never wil
After I am dead, will you tell .le.
that this time I have b , eu true to,

rather die than pain her the sees
time?"
"Don't, don't, John ! I cannot bear
to hero• you talk so," I cried. •'Jessie
never loved you, or she would not have
given you up for one single fault."
"Never loved me!" lie repeated. "Oh,
do not take that comfort troartne! it is
the only thought that has cheered or
encouraged me during the last liveyears
you will not rob tne of my ono consola
tion?"
Just then a 'thought occurred to me—
I wonder it never suggested itself be
fore, but I wasinever quick-witted, and
old age is not apt to incre:zie one's men
tal faeulties—l would write to ..le-3y4e,
tell her how manfully he bad borne
this last trial ; , how, in all the loag
years of prolatiim, passed "amid tan
gers and in .a sir Ingo land," he had
bravely trit.t and OVeleo - ne every tempt
alion ; and, above till, that his true,
faithful heart was still loyal to her. I
did write. I told her all this, and more;
that lie W{lB slowly dying, and she alone
could savellim. "Conte al once," I
said, "lor all other help has failed we."
How anxiously I waited fur a r t
w att i d she come, or had she ceased to
lune him, and amid other scenes, sur
rounded IIV new friends, forgotten the

cherish her hieluurv.
A I+aeh kuibsuti slowly. Standing by

Disguised and thoroughly armed, we

sunny-eyed and goldeti-haired.
