and opened a pair of (treat, dark, lieau-

"Don't trouble yourself, Mr. Hal

wards are full, and I have had you

"Thank you ! I tin able to pay for
it. You will get in well aa noon as

terrogation. "Iain Dr. William Walker, of this
hospital. I shall do all in my power
for ymt. It is nothing dangerous, my
dear sir; only you must have rest.
Now. I w ill give you a alcej.ing otioa,
and hope to Hud you better iu the
morntii;."
I'urke INIloii drank the (deeping
dri'ilit. mid almost immediately fell
:i!eep.
Dr. Will sat watching the pate, bean
lifut face upon the pillow before him
with an odd nensatioii atruggliug un
der Ins left vest pocket.
"What a hpirilu.dle face for a man
-oi a boy, rather 1' be exclaimed. "I
decl ire I was never ao intereatud iu a
patient before in my life!"
The next morning Parke Halton was
much better, and as the daya went by
i;rew rapidly atrotiger.
Dr. Will spent more time in the rocm
of his interesting patient than be had
ever been known to do before. There
seemed aoius rtlbtliattractiou between
tlie two, and ua time passed it grew
and st iv li 4 1 belied.
At last I'arke wa fully recovered,
and iu a few dayn would be dim-barged
from the hospital.
One night Kate, tlm nur.se, wan
startled by the sound of faint aobbiug
and stilted weeping, which seemed to
com. from the end of the long corri-
'or, near the idceping-room of lr.
Will. Sli hitstciied aoftly to the spot,
determined to kuow what was the mat
ter. This Is what hhe haw :
I'urke I billon oil bin kneea at the
door of I In) doctor's room, w eeping
bitterly.
Direct iy. the young ninn rose to his
i'eet and entered the room, for the
physician's door was never locked, but
iiln.iys realy for a hasty summon in
the night.
Iu Hpeechlcsa rtma.ement Kate no
lice. 1 the youug patient nteal aoftly to
the beiiaide. aud, atooping, press a
kiss upon the brow of the sleeping
physician; then, weeping bitterly,
steal away once more.
Out in the corridor the nurse sud
denly fonf routed tlm yoiiug man.
Haitou fell hack with a stilled cry.
d'". sola in yourself, sir," began the
tnir-M'. "Your couduct in rather un
usual." 't'oiue to my room," lie aaid, in a
hurried whisper, "and I will tell you
all. I have a confession to make!"
The next morning, wlu u Dr. Will
awo'ae "iron, h's slui",,7' 'i found
upou bia bed a small locket i uiu
the pictured face of agirl. It Mtha
exact counterpart of I'arke Halton.
When he left his room be was met by
Kate, who announced that the young
man was gone. Hhe had found bia bed
empty that morning aud a sum of
money ufli:iiut to more than cover
bia expenses at the hospital lying up
ou the table. Hut whatever the secret
eoiitided to Kate sbe kept it inviolate.
Dr. Will's face clouded and a troubled
look crept into his eyes. After that
he liecame very ipiiet and taciturn,
mill altogether a changed man.
um .lav ho received a summons to
an uptown mansion. Its owner lay
living, stricken down by a swift and
sudden disease. Arrived at his bed
side. Dr. Will i-aw at ouce that it was
too late to save hiui- liiH hours were
numbered.
"I have something to tell you," the
living man said, feebly. ".Heo that no
one is near. Wait, 1 wish to send for
my ward, Leoliue Lea."
A message waa depatched, and in a
few momenta a young girl entered the
room. At sight of her, the blood re
ceded from Dr. Will's heart, and he
felt as though he was going to faint.
For it was the faceiu the locket, which
Dr. Will eveu theu wore over his
heart, aud the fac simile of I'arke Hal
ton. Stilling au exclamatiou, the girl
sank iuto a seat. The dyiug man be
gan :
"1 was guardian over Leoliue Lea's
property. She. waa very rich; but I
have squandered her estate; I am dy
iug now. 1 loved he? aud I deter
mined to make her my wife; thus I
need never render an account of the
..asted fort u ue. I persecuted bcr for
a year to gaiu her cou.'tnt. She would
soon be twenty-one aud out of my
power, and theu I would be forced to
give an account of her ilaudered
fortune. I was half w ild lest I hhould
be discovered and punished. I did all
in my power to force her into mar
riage with me. Kite bated me, de
spised iue, scorned me.
"At last, tired of her defiance, T
locked her iii her room upstairs in this
house itnd decided to starve ber iuto
oticdicuce to my wishes,
"To my consternatiou the girl es
caped from her prison. hhe knotted
the blankets together and made a
rope, by which she managed to e fleet
her escape.
"She was gone several weeks. I was
half distracted over her alweuce, for
she was us iuoraut of the world as a
little child. Had hhe net been, she
would have kliowu that the law gives
ii o guardian the right to deprive his
wai'd of her liberty.
"tin her twenty-tirst birthday, l ow
ever, she reappeared aud Ueiuai ded
the restitution of her fortune. Hut
she would give tio account of ber
whereabouts during her absence from
my house until to-day, when she de
clared that she had found refuge iu
the Ortbopiedie Hospital. I have sent
for you to corroborate ber story. Dr.
Walker, have you lever met my ward
before?"
Vt. Will's blue eyes met thu fright-
ened care of Leoline'a dark on?;
they drooped. How could he answer
that question. She r.rose to her feet.
"Yes, Dr. Walker baa met me be
fore. I am Park H.iltou." Her face
was ghastly white now, and she trem
bnd pireeptibly. "I was very ignor
ant of the world's ways, as my guard
ian acknowledges a friendless, orphan
or I would long ago Lave appealed
to tlm law for protection from bis
persecution. In the wardrobe of the
room where I waa imprisoned I found
a suit of men's clothing; I managed
to niter them so that I could wear
them; and knotting blaukels nnd
sheets together, finally escaped from
tlm window, breaking my arm in my
(light. I bad hoped to Ibid refuse
until my tweiity-rirst birthday with
some acquaintance at the farther end
of the city, but wheu I reached the
house it was closed slid the family
gone abroad.
"I was in terrible pain with my
broken arm, and thai, witli the disap
pointment, overcame me, and I fainted
ami was taken to tiie hospital. You
kuow the rent, doctor. Csu you ever
lorgive my unwomanly conduct?"
Dr. Will took both" little hands in
his own and led her from the room.
"I know this," lie Shi. I in a low,
tender tone, "that I love you as man
ii-ver loved woman before."
Her eyes drooped from before his
passionate ga.e.
"I have loved yo'i ever since my
eyes first opeued from that swoou iu
the hospital," she faltered, "aud it
nearly drove me distracted to reflect
upon my false position. You cannot
love .r respect ineV
Kut there was no d'l.ibt of the love
which tilled bis heart, and with true
love respect comes always.
And that the way in which my
friend Walker found his wife. Tld
Cits. Tricks unil Manner ot ISiril.
The love of the spsirow for the
looking-glass is iieteworthy, though
one can not but wonder at an editor of
such acknowledged good taste and
ten ternessof heart having made pub
lic an incident evidently intended to
be of a roitlblciitial kiud. When a
female preens herself iu a mirror,
even though it be in auother person's
room, it doesn't Is-hoove the pro
prietor to reveal the circumstance.
Ami, after all, it is but a poor triumph
to convict it sparrow- oT vanity. Among
our ow n nice w have many examples
of the same weakness hi ladies whose
plumage, so to speak, is not one whit
more remarkable for beauty. As to
birds being "capable of vanity," who
that has seen a peacock spread its till
can doubt it? It is not so generally
known, however, that birds are capa
ble of veugeauce, says thu Ixmdou
News.
An inhabitant of lirenchlcy having
shot a lieu swallow skimming iu the air
with her mate, the euraged male bird
llew at his (ace a.vfl"" ,c to
molest him "with every appearance of
auger" w henever he appeared abroad.
The iucideut lmppeueil at a time
when there was little hcutiment about
such mattets, but the liinu is described
a having been really troubled about
il, though he was not the first mur
derer, if we are to believe the classics,
identified by a bird. One day only
was he free from the little creature's
reproaches. On Sunday it forbore to
persecute him as some, thought, from
religious motives, but more probably
Irom its failing to recoguie him iu his
go-to-meeting clothes.
A much more remarkable instance of
veugeance iu the swallow is vouched
for by Mr. (iaviu Inglis, of Si rut hen
dry, as famous in his time as au oh
serer of nature ua White, of Sel
borne, himself, A sparrow had early
in the spring taken possession of au
old swallow's nest aud had laid some
eggs iu it, when the original owner
and builder made her appearance and
claimed her rights. As the usurper
would not budgt sbe brought her mate
aud another bird (probably bee legal
adviser) to assist ber, but all in vaiu.
Then she brought other swallows (mili
tary aud polio) to effect the eviction,
and that, too, failed; the sparrow sat
hard aud fast on her eggs, aud pecked
through the little hole at ber enemies.
Theu the swallows despairing of ac
complishing their object, brought clay
and other materials and, plagiarizing
the system adopted in Holy Isle aud
other monastic institutions, built up
thu poor bird alive.
An Immense Chilean Tunnel,
The safety aud rapidity of communi
cation between the Atlaulicand Pacific
Oceans, across the ('ordilleras, will bo
facilitated and improved through a re
ceut decree of Seuor Jorge Mount, the
Treaidentof Chile. It is known that
work is actively being pushed to cut
the immense tunnel through which the
railroad is destined to connect Chile
aud the Argeiitiue Kepubltc. It will
pass under the top of tlm Andes, or,
rather, the Cordilleras. Hut until
this tunnel is completed, which will
not be before six or eight years, the
portion of the route which occupies
the summit of the mountain, between
the termiuusof the Argentine and that
of the Chileau railroad, has to bo
traversed by means of a road, or,
rather, a path, not always in good
shape for traveling. The decree of
President Mount says that "Whereas,
there exists between .finical and the
summit of the mountaiu only a path
dangerous for riding, especially iu the
portion called the Suesta de los Cam
cobs," the Cioverument approves the
plan proposed by the Department of
Public Works, the cost of which will
amount to ft88,07tt, aud bids nro in
vited from the contractors toward the
improvement of that part of the Cor
dillems road. Chicago Herald.
There is talk of reconstructing ths
old Statehouso on Huacou Hill, Bos

Will It be ths snms body that in the lat
day shall be reanimated' Yes, but Infinitely
Improved. Our bodies ehnnge every seven

of my right hand there is a scar. I made
thnt at twelve yenr of age, when, dlsgttvted

out. nines then my body ha changed nt

prove It Is the same body.

He can rebuild him nm-ii more and that to

I think He can do it eleven lime. Then

Another consideration make ths idea of
resurrection easier. God made Adam. He
wa not bullions.! after any model. There
had never been a human organism, aud so
there was nothing to copy. At the llrst at
tempt (lod made a perfect man. Hemndn
him out of the dust of the earth. If nut of
ordinary dust of the earth aud without a
model Hod could make a perfect man, surely
out of the extraordinary dust of mortal body
aud with million of model Cod esu make
each oue of u a perfect being in the resur
rection. Hurely the Inst undertaking would
oot be greater thnu the llrst. Hee the gospel
algebra. Ordinary (lust minus a model
equal a perfect man. Extraordinary dust
aud plus a model e.pmls a resurrect ion tiody.

Ho find nothing In the llihl statement con
cerning the lesurrection that staggers tne

mind. I snv Hint the cemeteries, however
beautiful now, will ne more beautiful wheu
the bo lie ol our loved oue come up in the
morulns of the resurrection.
T.iey will come in improved condition.
They will come up rested. The most of

Factories Hre apt to be rougit places, and
those who toil In them have their garment

aud respluudant form of c'.'.r friends ou the
brightest uioruing the world ever saw. You
put into a ta -iory eotton. aud It oomos out

And so iu the factory of the grave you put
iu pusumonias aud consumptions, and they
couieout health. You put la groaus, unit
they come out balleluinh. For u. on the
final day, the most nltractive places will not
be the parks, or the gsrdun, or the paluoes,
but the cemeteries.
We are not told Iu what smoo that day
will corns. If It shoul 1 be winter, those who
?ome up will be more lustrous tbau the snow
that covered them. If in the autumn, those
who come up will be more gorgeous than the
woods after the frosts had penciled them. If
iu the spring, the bloom ou which they tread
will be dull compared with the rubtound of
their cheeks. Oh, ths perfect resurrection
body! Almost everybody has some defec

ear, or a dim eye, or a rheumatlo foot, or a
neuralgic, brow, or a twisted, muscle, or a
weak side, or an inflamed tousil, or some
point at which the east wind or a season of
overwork assuult him.
But the resurrection body shall be without
oue weak spot, and alt that the doctors and
uurssa aud apothecaries of earth will there
alter have to do will be to rest without in
terruption after the broken wight ot their
earthly existence. Not only will that day
be the bauttricatlon of well kept cemeteries,
but some of the graveyards that have been
neglected and beau the pasture ground fo,
cattle and roasting place (or swluu will fo

it was a shams that la that place ungrs' .
ful generation planted no tree and twisted
no garlnnds, and sculptured no marble for
their Christian ancestry. Hut on the day ol
which I speak the resurrected shall make the
place of their feet glorious. From under the
shadow of ths church where they slumbered
among nettle nod mullein stalk and this
tles nnd slabs aslnnt. they shall arise with a
glory tf: shall flash the windows of the
village church, nnd by the bell tower that
used to call them to worship, and above the
old splr beside which their prayer lormsrly
ascended. What triumphal prooeealon neve
did for a street, what an oratorbwiever did
for an academy, what au oraKV nsvsr did
for a brilliant auditory, what olssiisk never
did for a king, resurrection morn will do for
all the eemeterie.
