VWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW^ Tlit MM Life. | 00000000000000000000000000 Should lie accept the invitation ; which his servant had [brought up to | his bedside and read to him that morn- I ing? He hardly had the courage. And | yet George Pus on should not have been the usm to turn back for any- j thing. One of the youngest captains in the i service, he had seen much fighting, j and had won honor and promotion by his courage and ability on the Indian i frontier. Handsome, healthy, and | wholesome-minded, he was a man ; whom any one might have admired and 1 envied till his great misfortune befell him. For he was blind. A crushing fall j with his horse when out pig sticking j had cause I severe injuries to his head, j aud wheu he recovered consciousness j all was dark to him. The nerves of j eight seemed to be paralyzed. He had come back to England a few ! months ago and had taken some rooms , in V/ondou. His own people were all ! dead, and he was dependent on the j kindness of his friends for society. And his old comrades did not for- ! get him, and many a dark hour was j brightened by their old-time talk aud \ cheerfulness. But London was getting empty, aud ' the weather was, oh! so hot that i George was looking forward with dis- , inal heart to the coming months. Tbe invitation was from a distant cousin iu the Highlands—Graham by ; name—iu whose house, when a boy, he had spent many happy holidays. It ; was very kind aud pressing, aud at last George made up his mind to ac cept it. It was a bright summer day when i his train neared the station where he j was to be met. His spirits had risen during the journey. The quick mo tion and the scent and sounds borue ! on tue mountain breeze had brought j animation to his look. But his cour- i age fell very low when his train began ! to slacken speed, and he realized that for the first time in his life he was to be helpless in the midst of people whom the passage of years had made almost strangers. However, the end came. His man ! helped him out of the train,but hardly was his foot on the ground when he heard himself addressed by girli>h voices and touched by geutie hands, j which relieved him of all his belong- 1 ings and led him to the carriage. "Oh, George, we're so glad you've come! We always called you George, you know; you don't mind it do you? 1 Cousins count for a lot in the High lands. I'm Helen, aud this is None ■ ami this is Bell. You'll soon know ' us by our voices, for we're terrible | chatterboxes." Aud, prattling and tending to him i with all the little kindnesses of warm ; hearted girls, they soon put him at his ease. Mrs. Graham received him at the | door and kissed "her boy for old i times' sake," as she said, aud [ George's sightless eyes were filled ! with tears as he was guided to his j room. "Dinuer in half an hour sharp," ! said his hostess. And as the gong j sounded he stepped from his room, to find a hand placed iu his,and he heard ' Helen's voice saying: "I've come to j show you the way—three steps to the i left, now 18 straight down—that's capital. You must remember the numbers." It was a bright,unselfish household, and when George found himsel alone that night he knew he felt a happiness not known for long. The days went by for him as iu a new world, marked by the most thoughtful helpfulness of all. But it was Helen who made herself especially George's friend aud guide. She it was who took him out of himself aud made him do things he would not have attempted of his own accord. Was there music in the evening, George must do his part and sing, aud wheu they danced, Helen it was who was his chief partner, aud who guided him through the other dancers. She would never allow him to be left out of anything that was going ou, even mounting him on her own pony, aud with a leading reiu taking him for a canter ou the wide pastureland round the domain. But what he liked best was to be taken out by her ou the loch. Here with the oars he could feel himself almost on a level with any one, and could get rid of his pent-up energy. Drifting, too, in the summer evenings, when he could hear the trout leaping round the boat, was very pleasant, for then he had Heleu all to himself, and her sympathetic friendship was eyes to the sightless man. Hha nsnil to tell him nil that, bad happened in their own circle since lie left the country for India, till at last he felt that he was one of themselves and said so, telling her all his life abroad seemed a dream from which he was just awakening. "But I awoke before it was light," he added, with a sigh. Then Helen would make him l-ow his hardest, or would put a rod in his hand and with another herself -would challenge him to catch the first trout. She would never let him dwell on his trouble and did everything she could to prevent him feeling his in firmity. But there was a pain in a 1 this, for he felt his to be a maimed life, aud incapable of ever being anything more to a woman than a cause of tender pity. Yet at times, when she was act ing as his gentle guide, he would al most hope that the pressure of her hand or the subtle shade of color in her voice showed something more than compassion. Helen was one of those women who seem predestined for happiness to themselves and others. Thoughtful ; for all she forgot no oue but herself, and remembered everything except a slight or personal uukindness. These, indeed, could be but few in number, for, with her "eyes like the sea" and heart as big, she disarmod all un friendliness, with the charm ot womanly grace anil gracious woman hood. Spite and sorrow lost them selves in the pure depths of her nature. And so time went on. They both loved, yet neither would speak—one of her womauliuess, the other of his manhood. But oue evening when they were drifting alone in the b >at. down the loch, Helen, who had been watching his face, could not help saying: "What are you going to do after you leave us?" "God knows, Helen!" "You need some one to take care of you." No answer, but he was sobbing. "George, would you like me to take care of you?" "Xo, Helen that can't be—can't be. 1 must boar my sorrow, siul spoil no other life." •'George, have you been happy here?" "Yes—wickedly happy! I oughtn't to have stayed to realize it." "I have been very happy, too, George. Will you uot let me realize it?" "Xo, no, Helen, it would bo un manly of me. it can't be. I love you with all my soul, but the offering of my love would be a contemptible gift." "George, you said it would be un manly of von to oiler mo your love, but don't you think it is harder for me to have done an unwomanly thing and asked you for it? "Won't you think of my happiness. I can't bo happy without you." He was amazed to realize that she loved him entirely for himself, aud the radiance of his face showed hi-s joy- Then Helen, taking hand, said: "George, will you be my husband?" Aud, with voice virbratiug with teuder uess, aud yet striving to assume a tone of mischievous raillery, she added: "You know it's leap year. George—the woman's privilege! Won* you, George?" Alas! I fear poor George's scruples had vaniseed, for ho showed no sign of resistance as Helen drew him near and ki3Sfcd him,saying: "Xow,George, won't you answer?" Aud George answered. And so it was settled that a wedding there should be, aud every oue was happy over it. Xo one suggested that Helen was throwing herself away, for in that household selfishness had little place, aud self-denial was looked ou a3 the royal road to and end of love. If it were possible that their com panionship could have been closer than before, of course it was so now, and as affianced lovers they speut long days whose brightness seemed threa tened by no cloud. And those days were a whole season of joy, yet they were all too short. Oue fateful morning they had walked far out, on the hills, when they were overtaken by a storm, aud took shelter under the lee of some firs, oud waited for it to pass by. Hand-iu-hand they listened to thd thunder aud the mad music of the wind. Helen, fearless as she was gentle, rejoiced in the sight,and when there was one specially glaring fork of lightning cried: "Wasn't that grand?" Aul then recollecting, and pressing George's hand closer: "Oh, George, I'm so sorry! I'd give my life if you could see!" As she spoke there came another i awful tlash aud crash of thunder and both fell to the ground beside a splin tered fir. George srose almost at once from his numbness,rubbing his eyes. Theu he staggered and caught his breath. Then he shouted wildly: "I can see 1 again, Helen! I can see! Whore are you?" And he turned and saw his Helen ou the ground. But lieleu was dead!— Auswers.

Gray eiderdown flannel is the mate rial here shown, the pointed hood be ing lined with soft yellow wash silk. The collar is finished on the edge with bias-stitched bands of silk, the simu lated cuffs being outlined in the same manner. The simple adjustment is accomplished by shoulder, under-arm SIMPLE DESIGN SEPARATE WAIST. aud ceuter-baek seams, an underlying box plait laid at the end of the back seam just below the waist liue to give necessary fulness to the skirt. The fronts close with buttous and button holes. a gray and yellow cord finished with tassels tied in front forming a girdle around the waist. The pointed hood is shaped by a single seam and may be lined or uot, as preferred. It may be made adjustable or included iu the neck seam with collar, or omit ted if not desired. The two-seamed sleeves combine style with simplicity, as they fit the arm closely aud are ex tremely comfortable. All kinds of flanuel and Turkish toweling, camel's hair, merino, soft serge and cheviot, as well as the lighter weights of double faced cloths, are used to make wrap pers of this kind. The robe may be lined throughout with bright plaid to match the liuiug of the hood, but the simpler these garments are made the more useful and desirable they are. To make this robe for a lady of me dium size will require nine yards of material twenty-seveu inches wide. Separate Waists a Permanency* Separate waists continue iu favor aud give evidence of having taken a permanent hold. The simple design shown iu the large engraving is both smart and comfortable, being snug without tightness aud embodying the suggestion of the sailor style, which is always admirable for informal wear. As illustrated the material is a Llue and white stripe, with collar of plain blue bauded with braid, but a plain color is equally suitable, aud various combinations can be made. Where, as iu this instance, the vest matches the waist, it is effective of white jnque or cloth, and where the cellar is blue the rest can be made white, and if de sired the skirt may match. •»**>' - The foundation, which is a fitted lining, closes at the centre front, but the waist proper is fitted with shoulder aud tinder-arm seams only, and closes invisibly at the side. The slaeves, while snug euough for style, are not over tight, aud are finished with cuffs that match the collar. To make this waist for a woman of medium size two and one-quarter yards of material thirty-six inches wide will be required. A Clever Woman*B Scheme. A clever womau was detected in a scheme the other day which may prove advautageous to other women. She had a stylish black hat, trimmed with huge bows of black taffeta aud a fold or two of the same about the crown. This answered for ordinary wear. But the cleverness of the woman was that she so arranged her sombre trimmings as to admit the ad dition of a black and white tulle pom pon, an extra fold of white silk veiled with black lace, and a small bunch of white viclets at the back. A con spicuous jet ornament fastened some of this together, aud the result was a stunning "new" hat fcr dressy occa sions. The Importance of the Celt. The littie matter of belts has an iin portance in dress out of all proportion to the size of the article, but the belt adds to or detracts from the appear auce in a most startling manner, es pecially the latter when it is not ad justed properly. White kid belts, plain or variously trimmed with beads or metal of some sort, are worn with the white shirtwaists, but prettier than these are the belts of soft white satin ribbon wiile enough to wrinkle a lit tle, fastened with a silver gilt buckle. Tery pretty, too, are the belts of white taffeta silk cut bias, hemmed on the machine aud finished with a rosette bow. A Dreisy Silk Sliirtwaist. There is nothing dressier tban an elaborate white silk shirtwaist, with its insertions of biack lace, a white stock and oru»h belt. A Novel Wrap. A novelty in wraps is a half coat of lace, rounded up the back aud trimmed with ruffles ot chiffon. Young Girls' Mourning Hat#. Mourning bats for young girls aro of dead black chip, with wide brims, and trimmed with plain white tulle or white tulle dotted with black. A Stylish Overdress. This overskirt drapery is made of spangled uet, the lower edge of which is shaped in wide vandyke points aud trimmed with sequin bauds. The drapery is shaped with a ceutre-back seam aud fitted with short hip darts. The placket opening in the back is finished with under and over laps, aud closes invisibly, or faucy buttons or pins may ornament the closing if desired. The top fits smoothly over the hips, falling below in pretty ripples over the skirt.

Sparrow hunting has become profitable in Kent County that men have now gone into the business that heretofore was conducted only for boys. One of the moiit persistent hunters is Charles H. Sarow, of Walk er Township, who one day drew in bounty from the county £8.50, and two days later 518.50. Another spar row exterminator is Fred E. Mc- Bride, who the other day drew $8.50 in bounties, and more recently §l4. But the gamiest sparrow hunter of ill is Ernest Cutler, of this city, who 'ollows the trail the year round. Last (•ear the county paid $275 to Cutler iu sparrow bounty. Just so sure as the sun goes down Cutler appears, just Defore 5 o'clock at the cashier's win dow in the clerk's office with his or ler from the county clerk. During the legislative session of 1885 the State authorized a bounty of two cents per head upon all "birds known as the common English spar row," which are considered a detri ment to the country. A few years ago several Western States placed a bounty on hawks and wolves. Immediately the mountain eers began raising hawks and wolves. It was a thrifty business, as the county pay was 81 per head for hawks nnd §8 per head for wolves. Iu this State at present there is a bounty of $3 per head on wolves, but the woods are BO devoid of the shy animals that no one cares to hunt for the bounty.—Grand Itapids (Mich.) Democrat. Arizona's Petrified Forests. The Indians of southwestern Ari zona used to visit the petrified forests frequently to obtain agate for tneir ar row and spear heads, and the material was scattered over the entire continent by exchange between the different tribes from the Isthmus of Panama to Bering Straits. The great deposit here explains where all the arrow heads of moss agate came from, and other weapons and implements of similar material that are found in the Indian mounds and graves of the Central and Western States. In the stone age the agate of the petrified forest was the very best material that could be obtained for both the imple ments of war and peace of the abori gines. A scalping knife could be made very easily from one of the chips of agate and could bo ground to a very fine edge. Many crystals were used for jewelry and ornaments also.
